THE JOLLY "DR. BILL."
"Doctor Bill," the funny comedy now playing at the Ninth street opera, house, Kansas City, is scheduled for Bowersock's opera house, Monday night, January 9th.
"Dr. Bill" is a play that depends entirely upon the acting for its success. It has no spectacular or realistic effects, no saw mills, no railroad trains, no explosions, no race scenes. All the red fire and ginger in the performance is in the actors each one of whom was selected with especial reference to his or her fitness for the characters entrusted to them. The play is capitally presented, has the advantage of competent comedians and clever specialty performances and is produced with the same general attention to detail that characterized its productions in New York.

EMPORIA, Dec. 21, 93.
At the State Normal to-day the board of regents approved the action of the faculty which a few weeks before had forbidden the playing of match games of football, and in addition passed a rule entirely forbidding the playing of football even among the scholars themselves. They claim as reason for their action that the game is brutal, in fact, is simply a price tight on a large scale. Governor Lewelling, it is said, approves of the order. The State Normal now has an attendance of about 1400.
At a meeting of the Western Interstate Football Association in Kansas City, Saturday the 30th, the following games were scheduled for '94.

Mr. C. O. Lasley, of Toledo, Ohio, has his name on the Visitor's Register, this week. Mr. Lasley will be remembered by old University men as a student two years ago, when he was prominent in athletics and was one of the successful contestants in the boat races. Since leaving the University he has been holding the position of assistant to the chief of the engineering department of the Toledo, Ann Arbor and North Michigan Railroad. He was here as the guest of Mr. V. J. Coleman going to Kansas City last night; but there are possibilities of the University being able to claim him as a returned student next term.
ATHLETICS.
Kansas City holds the world's mile and half mile records for Bicycle.
The referee who does not want to be roasted must keep off the grillron.
Baker has scored 148 points to opposing teams 26, shutting out four of the teams.
Emmons, the left end man of Harvard's '93 team has been ejected captain for next season.
The State Sportsman's Association will hold its fifth annual tournament at Topka, June 5-6.7th.
Knife has charge of the U. of P, team next season, while Princeton will probably relect Trenchard.
Hinkey was unanimously elected captain of Yale eleven. He has played three years on the team.
K. U. is now negotiating for an eastern coach for nextyear. It is hoped that he will be the type of Waters of Harvard or Mackey of U. of P.
A picked eleven from the Glese Club played the Beloit eleventh on Christmas day, at Beloit. The score at the close of the game was 10 to 10.
Why cannot the Interstate Association arrange for a few base ball games for the coming season? K. U. for one, is in for it and we are tired of defeating Kansas teams.
The prospects for the inter-state field day meet in Kansas City are good. In this only the State Universities of the four states of Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska will be allowed to compete. The meeting will probably be held the latter part of May.
Of the interstate games, Kansas scored 57 points to opponents 36. Missouri scored 54 points to opponents 56. Iowa scored 76 points to opponents 57. Nebraska scored 38 points to opponents 66. From this it will be seen that Kansas was scored against least. In '92 K. U. scored 48 points to opponents 8.
O. K. Williamson has been unanimously elected captain of the Kansas University team for next year to succeed A. R. Champilin, who leaves school at the end of the year. 'Willie' is a cool, nery and brainy player, and certainly deserves the captainey. He is very popular with the players, and is universally liked by the students and faculty. As quarter back he is in a position to direct the field play of the team to a great advantage.
