K.U. SEEMS HEADED FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Jayhawker Team Will Attack Emporia- Then For The Tigers
Now that they have decisively defeated the Warrensburg Normal, champions of the Missouri conference, the Kansas basketball five will take a shot at the Kansas conference Friday, when they play the College of Emporia at Emporia. The Presbyterians have a strong team this year, although they have lost to Washburn and Baker by narrow margins. Kansas won from Washburn which in turn defeated Emporia by two points. This gives the Jayhawkers plenty of dope and Emporia probably will be the Kansans' thirteenth victim.
By playing the Missouri Normalls and the Emporians, the Jayhawkers will keep in good shape for the two return games with Missouri next month. Ames, Washington, and the Kansas Aggies have been eliminated from the championship race and Missouri is almost out of the running. Nebraska is the only team which will present a strong claim for the championship, but no games are scheduled with the Cornhuskers. A series to decide the championship probably will be arranged unless Missouri upsets the dope by defeating Kansas in the next two games.
COLLEGE TO PLAY WESLEYAN
Will Seek Revenge on Salina Metho
dists For Defend Recovered Last
The College basketball team will play the Salina Wesleyans in the Robinson Gymnasium tomorrow. The game will be called at 8 o'clock.
This game promises to be the best seen in the Gym in which the second five participants. The Wesleyans devise a plan that pets last week in Salina 56 to 28.
The Salina lades play the Washburn five at Topeka tonight, and the result of that game will do much to embarrass the outcome of tomorrow's battle.
CORNHUKEERS CAPTAIN
IS DECLARED INELIGIBLE
The members of last year's football eleven will now be forced to name another man to act as captain this fall.
Prospects for a championship football team at the University of Nebraska for the 1914 season suffered a sad blow last week, when, at a meeting of the eligibility committee of the Missouri Valley Conference, Max Towle, quarter back and captain-elect of the 1914 Cornhuskers was declared ineligible for further participation in Conference athletics. Two years of football and three seasons service on the baseball diamond proved too much for the valiant Nebraska leader.
WANTED—Room for two girls; on east side of hill. Call 2452 Bell in morning.
Schedule Incomplete
The 1914 football schedule is still incomplete as no game has been arranged for October 10. Coach Hamilton said he had a number of prospects but could not get the team he wanted.

COLLEGES WANT NEW STATE CONFERENCE
Representatives of Six Kansas Schools Discuss Forming Another League
The Kansas college athletic conference, which includes about a dozen colleges and small universities, is on the verge of dissolution and a new conference may be formed next year. Representatives from the College of Emporia, Washburn, Baker, St. Marys, the State Normal and Ottawa recently met and discussed the advisability of forming a new conference, including these six schools. The present conference is too large and unwieldy; it is difficult to determine championships and the schools are too scattered. The University has but has not achieved the conference on its athletic schedules this year. The College of Emporia will play the Jayhawker basketball five next week and Washburn is an opponent of the Kansans in basketball and football. St. Marys is on the baseball schedule this year and was the only Kansas team which defeated Frank's squad last spring.
While the advocates of the new conference believe it will strengthen the athletes of the six schools and confine contests to the new conference, it is not probable a rule will be passed barring these schools from playing the University teams.
