The demand for the draft price of
$500 for class IA players, made last

OF sufficiently high caliber to make

Still another angle has to do with
sending draftd players back to the

This provision would be highly accept

PAY FINAL TRIBUTE
Impressive Funeral for Late Imri
ZumwaIt at Bonner Springs.

Bonner Springs. Kan. May 13.-
Never did Bonner Springs pay tribute
to a departed citizen in such impress
sive services as marked the last rites
for 1mri Zumwalt, state printer. The
entire town and country district sur
rounding the town suspended bust
ness Thursday in memory of the news
paper man. Practically every cleo
tive state official, as well as newspa-
per men from Topeka, Lawrence and
Kansas City attended the services.
Schools closed for the services, flags
were at half mast, business was sus-
pended. There was no building large
enough for all the friends who sought
to pay tribute to their departed friend.
Large numbers of persons stood out
side the Christian church where serv-
ices were held. From the Zumwalt
home to the church, distance of
several blocks-the street was lined
with boys and girls from the public
schools. They stood with barred heads
and at attention as the funeral process
sion passed.
The Rev. H. H. Fowler, pastor of
the Methodist church, and Elder c. o.
Banta, pastor of the Christian church,
conducted the funeral services. 1t
was a touching, impressive ceremony
filled with words of love and devotion
for the man who was the town editor
and had won high place in state
service.
Governor Allen added the final
word of tribute for the former state
printer. The governors voice was
broken with emotion and tears were
in his eyes as he talked. His simple
words of praise for the former state
official as a man whose heart was
filled with love and held no malice,
touched the big crowd and there were
no dry eyes when the services ended.
Scores Of floral offerings were sent
to the home. One, almost as large
as the casket itself, came from the
officers and employees of the state
printing plant.
State officials, employees of the
state printing plant and members of
the Topeka Press club attended the
services in a body. They came to
