CLASSES TO BATTLE FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
BETTER HAVE YOURS LAID ASIDE!
Various Elevens Taking Strenuous Workouts Every Day—Soph Prospects Bright
The first series of interclass football games will be held on McCook field Saturday afternoon when the seniors meet the sophomores and the juniors context with the freshmen in the race for the interclass title.
Much interest has been manifested in this battle for the interclass football championship. Each class has its individual supporters who wildly claim the flag for their own team, and not a few bets, some freak, have been wagered on the final outcome of the series.
**Teams Evenly Matched**
On material the four teams seem about at a draw. To the average outsider it would seem that the yearlings, with their seasoned team, in fine fettle from two months ago against the Varsity run away with them, but, by a special deal of the coaches, it has been decided not to let the first freshman team battle in the rush for the title, so entirely new material is being developed by the Varsity coaches.
The seniors have a good team and a fast one. Last year, warring under the standards of the junior class, they more than made the race interesting for the team against them; they went in better shape than this, fall they in better shape than ever, and ready to do fell damage against the bulwarks of the other elevens.
The sophomores can be counted on as sure contestants for the flag, and practically all of the tots pick them as warriors in the final battle for the pennant. This team, masked under the guise of yearlings, last fall took all the teams to a beating, and finally succumbed only before the seniors in the second game for the championship, the first one having resulted in a tie. When a team with no practice and disciplined by the loss played against the Varsity, can come out and turn out that brand of work, it certainly speaks well for their spirit and gameness.
Seniors Won Last Year
Seniors Won Last Test
Last year, the 1912 seniors won the flag, this fall the 1913 upperclassmen plan to back and carry on the team which was established by their predecessors. Bill Brown, well-known for his work on the soccer and college basketball teams, is one of the mainstays of this bunch in the line, and has proven to be one of those few men who did not develop their gridiron talent until too late to use it for the banting of the Westy. The seniors have a good team, a heady team, although they did not cut up greatly when in sophomore clothing last fall. Jock Evans, a dependable man in any position, will probably work in the backfield for this aggregation, and Leonard Hurst and Lefty Sproull, if they turn out for practice, will have to end as soon as they are found on a class trip. Chick Ferguson, the Olathe Speed Marvel will also use his legs to good advantage in running back punts.
Sophomores Look Strong
So the sophs ought to come back this fall. Nigg and Baysinger, two vailant athletes, have prominent parts in the make-up, while behind the line is found Joe Gaitskill, a shifter quarter. Elliott Taylor, a mainstay on last year's eleven and a high school star, may harken to the call of the pigskin and report for practice soon. The presence of this hard-working athlete, should make the team complete in every part.
Beware the trainers.
Nothing can be learned about the freshmen. They are out there, practicing daily on the golf links. They absolutely refuse to divulge their names. They fear it may reveal their signals also. But watch them! They have always proved a surprise and sensation, when looked in to a pinch and this year's team will prove no exception to the rule.

SOMEWHAT DIFFERENT
FROM OUR GAME, EH?
Chinese football is played with a basket, and about fifty men are allowed on each side. Most of the players are giants of over six feet in height. The game is played in the streets, touchdowns are sometimes made by sneaking the basket out and getting it over the opponents' goal line by carrying it across a few housetops.
CHICAGO GIRLS PREFER
THE FACTORY TO SCHOOL
When 500 girls between 14 and 16 years of age in Chicago factories were asked: "If your father had a good job, so that he could have afforded to keep you in school, we would go to go to work in a factory?" 412 replied that they would still prefer to be in the factory.

COMES NOW HANDBALL TO KANSAS SPORTDOM
Tournament Will Soon Start--A Great Game, Says Dr. Naismith
Handball, according to the Doctor,
is one of the best winter sports on
the map. It is exciting, requires
great skill, and gives the average
sport-loving student all the exercise
he cares to undergo in one afternoon.
Prospects for a successful handball tournament this winter, an even better one than the battle that was staged last spring, seem unusually bright. Dr. James Naismith, in his lair over in the Robinson Gymnasium, is boosting the project with might and main.
A tournament was held at Kansas last spring, the athletes playing every Tuesday and Thursday night to a slight difficulty in to a slight difficulty in the manner to a slight difficulty in the manner players contested in the tournament, but at that it was one of the closest fought races ever seen on the Robinson Gymnasium floor. The league started out with Ben Sweeney and Joel Cobb, both good players and good sports.
Ben Sweeney Wins
Both men however were still even, each possessing an ever-victorious record, until they met, and then, in probably the best game ever seen in the room in the Roginson Gym, Sweeney took his opponent to the mat, score 21-19, 21-18. This defeat most of the pep out of Hopper, and never afterwards was he in a close race for the championship honors, actually finishing fourth in the final percentage column.
Ross Miller and Lefty Granger then stepped up and disputed Sweeney's place, in tightly-contested games he won both his matches with these athletes, and finished the season with perfect percentage, win 11 lost 0. Miller finished second, Granger third, Hopper fourth, and the rest ranged out in order to Skinner and Ketchum, the tail-enders.
To Erect More Courts
The fellows had all sorts of fun out of the work, and Dr. Naismith, by submitting the results of the tournament to the Board of Administration, got a favorable opinion out of them on the subject of more courts. These will probably be erected soon. This year's tournament however will be a larger affair, and a cup will be the winner. The singles and double championships will be staged, and the whole affair will rank with the Free-for-all tennis tournament, staged on the McKee field courts last spring.
ESTABLISH COURSE IN REAL ESTATE BUSINESS
Western Reserve University Will Offer Rudiment of "Profession" For Self Sustenance
Western Reserve University, of Ohio, is the first university to offer a course in real estate business, in this country. Not only will the theory of real estate selling be taught but agents who are in business will instruct the students in the art of conducting a prospective purchaser survey. The training structure of the proposed dwelling vivid enough to get the first installment.
"The latest trend of college education to train students to become economically self sustaining and that is one reason why we are offering this course," said Duc Duyen, secretary of the university when interviewed on the new course. "The establishment of schools of journalism in nearly all the universities and colleges is one instance of it. The idea now is to turn a college man out at his graduation equipped to make a living. There is money in the real estate business; it serves a market." When someone into it would serve both the real estate business and the college man."
