THREE COACHES NAME AN ALL-VALLEY TEAM
Eleven
Stiehm, Brewer, And Mosse Select Men For Prize Flavor
Following close upon the annual selection of Coach Arthur St. Leger Mosse of the All-Missouri Valley Conference football team, the Kansas City Post, through Stewart Jackson, its sporting editor, published yesterday its choice of an All-Vaulley eleven, a mythical team which would be the best of the Valley on the gridiron.
The Post arrived at its final decision as to the merits of the players by submitting to Jumbo Stielem of Nebraska, Coach Brewer of Missouri, and Arthur Mosee of Kansas a certain group of men chosen to pick from the bunch their selection for an All-Valley eleven.
They All Like Weidlein
But four players were the unanimous choice of the trio for their positions. Nebraska led the other one. Each mentor agreed on naming Beck of Nebraska for left end, Halligan of the same bunch for left tackle, and Rutherford of the Cornhuskers for left half. Bill Weidlein, the Jayhawker captain, was almost the unanimous choice of the different tutors for trip to another side of the claim. Another Jayhawker, part claim to the place along with the captain.
As to the other positions. Brewer and Mosse chose Galleger of the Tigers to play next to Halligan as the All-Valley left guard. Stehm however picks Coomis, the Angle was given this job; the Angle was given to Galleger, Loomis being forced to content himself with a place on the second squad.
Stiehm and Brewer chose Chuck Wilson, the Missouri captain and last year's All-Valley center, for the prime plum at the same place this fall. Wilson, in a way, is not entitled to the place, the doughty Tiger having worked part of the time behind the line at full. As two of the three judges favored him, however, he was given the first place. Wilson has down this position next fall, acceding to popular opinion.
Beber Makes End
Reeves of Ames, Holmes of the
same school, and James of Kansas were the three candidates advanced for right guard. Brewer's selection won in on the pin, Reeves for his excellent all-around playing being equally successful. James was easily the second choice.
Weidlein was the unanimous choice for right tackle. Big Burton of the Jayhawks will ably fill the tackle's place on this eleven next fall.
Bonny Reber, another Kansas boy, was given the call over two other candidates at right end. Jumbo Stiehn picked Mastin, one of his pets; Brewer chose Cowan of Ames. Mosse divided the title between Mastin and Reber. Reber, however, for his star work in the Missouri game won the high prize, and Mastin took second.
Towle was chosen to direct the team at quarter, McWilliams of Iowa was selected. Towle, for his work in running back pants, was given first place.
Rutherford and Purdy of Nebraska were given the two halves, with Stuwee at full. Rutherford's choice, as mentioned before, was unanimous. Purdy beat Simons, the drake captain out of one of his duets, for over Howard of the Cornhaskers for the final place on the eleven.

NOW WE HAVE WITH US
THE OVERWORKED PROF
If the question of overworked professors ever hops up in your vicinity and you are hard pressed for an argument to defend the profs, just spring this little experience of Prof. H. H. Hodder.
His speech was given as scheduled, but it did not end there. Other clubs got hold of him and he made another talk, and another, until before the last session had lectured five times to different clubs and all of them in Winfield.
Professor Hodder went to Winfield Friday to lecture before one of the enterprising clubs of that town. He expected to journey down to Winfield, make one speech and leave town.
GIRLS TO HAVE FIVE
TENNIS COURTS SOON
The old soccer field back of Robinson gymnasium has been converted into tennis courts for women's gym work next spring. There will be two terraces, three courts on one terrace, and two on the other, and all of these courts will be reserved for the use of the girls. The courts have been graded down and after they have been leveled off, will be allowed to weather until spring, when they will be put into condition for use.
THREE K. U. STUDENTS SAVE TOPEKA $2,000
Forty new county high schools have been formed in Kansas this fall under the Barnes law, according to Prof. W. H. Johnson, state high school visitor from the University of Kansas. The majority of this number will be ready to be accredited by the time he makes his visits in December.
COMING ATTRACTIONS
Engineers Crawl Through Sewer System and Point Out Defects
Three students of the University descended into the depths of Topeka's sewer system last week, crawled through the miles of slimy drains, and completed a survey that experts declared would cost the city $2,000 had it been performed by any but student engineers.

Franz Schneider, the expert whom the Russell Sage Foundation has placed in charge of the Topka surge with the work of the Kansas men.
This is the first time that any University has cooperated in just this way to tell a city what is wrong with its sewer problems. Topeka not only had the benefit of the student help but also the aid of Prof. G. R. Jones, head of the department of sanitary engineering, who led the students through the underground tunnels, and directed their hunt for defects in the system.
"They have made a tremendous saving for the city," he declared. "One rather expected to find student help halting and time-wasting; yet these boys do not suffer with an indifference capacity which reflects much credit upon their training."
LEAVENWORTH COUNTY
CLUB WILL HOLD BANQUET
While other University people took a Thanksgiving holiday, the three students, E. C. Richardson, Cleveland, Ohio, W. A. Davenport, St. Louis, Mo., and Harlan D. King, Beloit, completed the report from their notes taken at Topeka. A map was made showing every sewer, and a bulletin will include suggestions for improvements.
The Leavenworth County K. U. club will hold its second annual banquet at the National Hotel in Leavenworth, December 29. Tickets may be obtained of W. A. Lambert, Sig Alpha house; Arthur J. O'Keefe, 1231 Tennessee St.; Mist Ruth Litchin, Sigma Kappa house; Miss Luella Cory, Westminster hall. There were fifty-four at the banquet last year and this year the club hopes to make it seventy-five.
Kickers to Play Rugby
FOOTBALL PLAYERS
"Those who like a clean, lively sport that requires lots of pep, will have an opportunity to mix in one in a few days," said Dr. Naismith this afternoon. We are going to play a little rugby in place of the kind that they play in California. There is great sport in the game and it is for this sport that we are taking it up.

The Varsity men check in at McCook field, the freshmen check in at the Manager's office on the hill where the men who have checked out material and are not going to play in the interclass games will please check in.
JAYHAWK RUNNERS BOW TO TIGER MEN
W. O. Hamilton, Mgr.of Athletics.
Deewall. Running a Great Race, Is Passed By Two Missourians
W. O. Hamilton,
The Jayhawker cross-country team, despite two hard weeks of coaching, dropped the annual K. C. A. C. Thanksgiving run in Kansas City Thursday. The team displayed vast improvement however, showing the results of the work of Coach Hamilton and Captain Hazen.
The Tigers captured first and second places, Terry and Finley nabbing these two plums. According to all reports, Dewall of Kansas ran a better race than either of the Tiger runners, but his unfamiliarity with the course handicapped him to too great an extent.
The Kansas man, taking the lead early in the race, followed steadily an automobile guide, which was running in front of the track men leading the way from the Gordon and Kelley Athletic Club's downtown club house. Dewall followed the car, which served as a pacemaker, and failed to notice Terry and Finley right behind him, cutting parkways and corners skillfully. His newness to the course too much for him, and the Tiger athletes, sprinting at the end, won a comparatively undeserved victory.
The runners finished in the following order: Terry, Missouri (capt.); Finley, Missouri, Dewall, Kansas; Edwards, Kansas (capt.); Oliver, Haskell, Spier, Kansas; Goeeb, Kansas; Ross, Kansas; McMaster, Nebraska; Rodkey, Kansas; Bates, Haskell; Bietrich, Kansas.
WILL HOLD FOOTBALL SMOKER DECEMBER 12
Annual Event to Honor "K" Men to be Staged in Fraternal Aid Hall
The date for the annual football smoker at Fraternal Aid hall was set for December 10 and Larry Klinear was appointed chairman of the committee smoker at Fraternal Aid, the special meeting of the Men's Student Council last week.
The football smoker is one of the big events of the year where students get together and honor the University athletes. Speeches will be made by Chancellor Strong, "Uncle Jimmy Green and the athletic team and heroics." The "K" men will be presented with letters at the smoker.
The Glee club will sing several selections. Pan-Hellenic, the class societies, and other organizations will take part in the program.

PICK CHIEF TUESDAY FOR JAYHAWK SQUAD
Members of Team That Went to Missouri Eligible to
Vote
The captain for the Jayhawker football squad for the year 1914 will be chosen Tuesday night at 7:30 o'clock at the Eldridge hotel. Following the usual custom, the men who were members of the squad at the time of the Missouri-Kansas game will hold a dinner and at that time elect one from their number to captain the team for the next season.
Among the men who are eligible to election to the captaincy are Stuele, Detwiler, Tudor, and Burton. Apparently the sentiment of the team favors Stuele and Detwiler. Both are old men, and either would make an ideal leader for the 1914 team.
Word has come that the Board of Administration has determined to become active in the matter of returning the annual Missouri battle to Kansas City. There will be a meeting of the board with the faculty and students in Lawrence, December 16, and another with the alumni in Kansas City a week later. The students will these meeting the Board will go to the Missouri Valley meeting in Lincoln with their plans ready, and a knowledge of what the students, faculty and alumni want done.
TELL THEIR TROUBLES
TO CHANCELLOR STRONG
From 3 to 4 o'clock on Mondays, Chancellor Strong's open hour to students, many students take advantage of the opportunity to ask his advice or to discuss questions concerning their work or the University.
"I am at students' disposal to discuss anything from football to sin," said Dr. Strong today. "The topics cover at least that wide a range."
But one hour on Mondays is not the only time that students may see the Chancellor. "They are welcome to come in any time," said Dr. Rodriguez. "We've set so that they might be sure to come when I am not busy."
AND VERILY WE SAY
THE LOST SHALL BE FOUND
Have you lost anything? If you have, let the Kansan "lost" column know about it. For Kansan lost notices surely do bring the lost things home. A member of a well-known sorority lost her pin the other day. She put a notice in the Kansan last Wednesday and Friday evening her pin was returned to her. "Lost" notices don't cost much and they bring results. Take the hint. If you have lost anything, try a Daily Kansan "Lost" Notice. You'll get your property back.
Announces Band Concert
The K. U. band will give its first concert on December 18. Both classical, and popular music of the day will be played.
All want ads must be accompanied with cash. The price is reasonable. Results Sure.
THE OREAD Cafeteria and Tea Room
We are still serving the largest variety in our meals of any place in town. Our increasing business is proof to us that the students appreciate our efforts. If you haven't tried the most up-to-date cafeteria in town make it a point to stop in today. Just as a suggestion try our Spanish Mackerel.
We have a full line of steaks and chops.
