FAMOUS FOOTBALL MAN WILL
COACH AT THE FORT HAYS
NORMAL

Hays.Ka ans July 31-George J.
Woodward, one of the famous Wood
ward brothers on the University of
Kansas football team in 1916 has been
selected as head of the Physical Ed
ucational department at the Fort
Hays Kansas Normal School.
The new coach holds a fine record
both as an all round athlete and as
coach. In high school he played on
the football team two years and both
year his team was ever victorious.
During the first varsity year he was
captain of the Freshman team and
the next year played stellar game on
the Varsity team. Because of his
record he was selected on the all val
ley team, for 1916. During the same
year he played on the Varsity basket
ball team and was a member of the
Varsity track team.
He left the University in the spring
of 1917 with his company of National
Guards and was on the border during
the Mexican disturbance. When he
returned from the border he entered
the national army as a volunteer and
was sent overseas. In the army
Coach Woodward was captain of the
35th Division football team which
beat the University both of Texas
and of Oklahoma. He was coach for
other army teams overseas as well as
being captain of the 35th Division
team.
Since his return from the army he
has assisted in the Department of
Physical Education at the University
of Kansas. Last year the football
team which he coached was not de-
feated during the season and his
basketball team won % out of rs
games.
At the Fort Hays Kansas Normal
school this year Coach Woodward
will have a string of strong men from
which to build team and the pros
poets are favorable for better team
than the Normal School has ever
turned out.

Two centuries ago there "reigned"
In Paris a greater parsonage than the
young king, Louis XIV, or his regent,
the duke Of Orleans-a money wizard,
whose operations are recalled by the
Ponzi speculative scheme In Boston.
He was John Law. a Scotsman, who
through his friendship with the duke
of Orleans, established credit bank
on the theory that money is the cause,
not the result Of wealth. He obtained
for the bank monopoly of the ma

In 1716 Law established a private
bank with a capital Of 60O0.OOO Iivres
with power to issue notes. 1t became
an instant success, and his paper cur
rency became more valuable than the
mInted currency Of the government.
Then he formed his company of the
west, developing Louisiana territory,
with a capital Of 100OOO.0O0 llvres.
New Orleans was built. Trade ex-
banded. Shares In the company rose
In value until first Paris and then the

one was growing rich. Law became
director general Of finance for France.
But the height was reached In De-

found himself bankrupt. He
escaped from France, became a wan.
