Says Ed. Cochrane of the Kansas City Journal: "If Missouri wins from Kansas it will be because of the end runs of the Tiger aggregation." Somehow, the Kansas City papers seem to have gotten the impression that the Jayhawker ends are the weakest point on the whole eve. They're going to be shown up some at Columbia Saturday.

BASKET-BALL TEAM WORKS IN GOOD FORM
Fans Predict Prize Team For Kansas—Three Accidents Last Night
According to those who have been watching this year's basket-ball team at work, the prospects give evidence of the best team that has appeared in the Missouri Valley for years.
Of course it is far too early to decisively decide on the men, who will open the first game for Manager Hamilton's brigade; the complete schedule has not even been made out, but any chance to make up a team, as good as any seen in the Missouri Valley last year.
"Slick" Floor Causes Injuries At the work out last night three accidents occurred and Coach Hargill was kept busy tying up the injured. "Fat" Nelson, captain of last year's freshmen, was first to come to grief with a dislocated knee. He was playing hard, against mire when he stepped on a stone at the back floor which was too heavy resisted; the accident happened when he became over balanced at this point. The same accident occurred to Nelson last year and since that time the injured member has never fully recovered from the strain.
Players to Have Day Off
There will be no regular practice Thursday night. The team will exercise too high for much attention to be paid to any other sport, and Captain Sproull wishes every candidate for either the freshman or the Varsity eleven to turn out to the big cheer rally which will be held in Fraser hall instead of taking place on campus. Sproull promises that this day off will not be repeated again during the entire season.
Neither of the other injuries, however, were as severe or as painful as the injury to the star sophomore. Lefty Smith, K man and guard on last year's regulars, was hit in the nose and it was feared for a moment that the blow had broken it. The swelling had considerably increased, however, and the coach's fears were cased. Exactly the same accident happened to another Smith, a freshman center. It was a night of bloody battle.
Baldwin, a K man two years ago, and Sweeeney, a member of the 1911 freshman aggregation came out last night for the first time they heard of hopefuls. Both looked in good condition after their long removal from the game.
The Columbia correspondent of the Kansas City Star points with pride to the fact that for the first time in the history of the school, telegraph accommodations will be installed at Rollins Field for the benefit of the press reporters of the out-of-town papers. Such a building was for telegraph accommodations at the field that the Western Union was forced to install a wire for Saturday's game almost in self-defense.
Under Other Goal Posts
All records for receipts at a football game were broken Saturday when $32,274 were paid by spectators to see the big event in the All-Star Ball Field. Export sport writers who had gained facility in estimating attendances
The Texas Longhorns were forced to remove two of their star players from the line-up for tomorrow's game with the Kansas Aggies owing to the fact that Lowman insisted that the Southern eleven should play according to Missouri Valley Conference rules. The Farmers are under pressure of being beaten at Austin tomorrow but nevertheless they want to have as many things as possible in their favor before they start the game.
Harvard went through a strenuous signal practice yesterday in preparation for Saturdays' game with the Blue and White. The game is taking no chance of injuring any of his prize athletes before the big contest, so has abandoned all scrimmage for the rest of the week. Walter Trumbull, their star center, who has been out of the game since last week, returned to Haughton's squad yesterday, and Cambridge is correspondingly happy.
had given big guesses as to the crowd which witnessed the game, but even the most savage had included the total attendance figures where near to this.
The Yale Bulldogs held a slight rest yesterday after their strenuous battle with the Princeton Tigers the Saturday previous. Coach Jones is working hard to whip his men into good form for the coming Harvard game, and the eleven at present looks much better than it did earlier in the season immediately after the Colgate game.
FIRST TIGER DEFEAT
UNDER COACH HOPKINS
Team Of 1891 Won Three Games And Tied
Prof. E. M. Hopkins, of the English department, was the first football coach of the University of Kansas.

"The first football team team had no regular coach," said Professor Hopkins yesterday afternoon. "It was organized in the fall of 1924 and captained by J. Wade Pearsal. He played for the first time in 1891. I had never played any football and only knew what I had seen at Eastern games. The captain of the team was W. A. Kinzie. We played two games. We played Washington University, and for the first time played against Missouri.
"That season we won three games and tied the one with Washington. The business men down town raised a purse and had souvenirs made for the members of the team. These souvenirs were three cornered gold plates with a football pictured in the center. From this souvenir or-

inginated the title, 'Never Defeated,' from the team of 1891. There was a question as to what the inscription on the plate should be; we had tied the game with Washington and could not call our team. 'Even Victorio tried,' finally 'Never Victory' was decided upon.
In 1892 A. W. Shepard from Cornell coached the team. Professor Hopkins was manager that year until after the beginning of the season when Shepard assumed the duty also. "After the difficulty the teacher," he has been interrupted only as I am now, as an onlocker. I offered my resignation as manager from the top of a dry goods box at a bon fire."
W. H. Cowan was coach in 1894, '95, and '96, Wylie G. Woodruff came in 1897. In 1899, since time the coaches have Boynton, 1900; Outland, 1901; Curtiss, 1902; Weeks, 1903; Kennedy, 1904-10; Sherwin, 1911; Mosse, 1912. Coach Mose commenced playing football when Cowen was on coach in 1895. He was captain in 1888 and since has had something to do with developing each
The Triangular League was the name of the first football organization to which Kansas belonged. It was made up of Baker University, Washburn, and the University of Kansas. In 1892 the Inter-State League was formed, and later came the Missouri Man of Kansas Conference. A man of Man Kansas City, Hal W, Reed, was the first to propose an Inter-State football association and had much to do in the organization of it.

MINING ENGINEERS HOLD FOREIGN JOBS
South America, Africa, And Europe Fields For Daddy Haworth's Boys
Prof. Erasmus Haworth is proud of his boys. He says so himself and seems to have reason for his struc-ting. Of course, it must be understood that he means his mining engineers.
He has lately been in correspondence with the graduates of the School of Mining and finds that they are not satisfied positions and are steadily advancing.
Williard E. Shaler, who was graduated in 1904, worked in the United States Geological Survey and the American Syndicate for a short time and then went to Africa, where he remained three years. While there, he made important gold discoveries and is now European representative with offices at Brussels, Syndicate with offices at Brussels, Belgium. He draws a salary of $5,000 a year with $1,000 for traveling expenses.
Another "Boy" Gets $5,000
After graduation in 1904, A. H. Hoffman went to Mexico and had considerable success in the copper mines there. He was steadily advanced and, in 1912, was made superintendent with a senior position by the he went to South America, where he has charge of the construction of a new $30,000,000 smelter.
Wallace E. Pratt, who was graduated in 1908, secured a position with the government and was sent to the Philippines. He has published a number of articles and is one of leading scientists in Manila today.
Six were graduated from the school in 1913 and the are all employed now with good salaries. All of them are in the United States and three out of the six have already been promoted.
He'd Back 'Em Against Any "I'll take my whole bunch of graduates and put them up against an equal number that can be picked from any of the other schools and show that my boys have advanced faster and are drawing better pay than the others," he said. Professor Irwin's morning, "I am proud of the showing and will be satisfied if all of them from now on are as successful as the fellows have been so far."

OF AWARDING CUP
TO CHANGE MEANS
OF AWARDING CUP
Last year when Coach Mose called for men to appear for spring football practice, the Sachem society offered a silver trophy to the winner and a bronze trophy to be held May 3. But on the day of the contest no kickers appeared.
The Sachems, a senior organization, will not award a cup this year to the best football kicker as was to be awarded last year. Elmer Whitney, president of the Sachems, said this morning that a meeting of the society would be called soon and new arrangements would be made as to the method of awarding the trophy.
At the first spring football practice twenty-five men showed up, but the next week there were only six men out and still it was hoped to develop new material for the fall team. Because there were no games scheduled the

football aspirants did not take kindly on the idea.
Whitney says that the awarding of a cup is not dead at all but the nature of the awarding will with all probability be changed.
The Chicago Maroons after defeating Minnesota Saturday, are beginning to fear the Wisconsin Badgers, the team which they meet next week. A victory over Minnesota should make them fearless of the world, say we. The Gophers are a much stronger team now than they were when the fall easy prey at the hands of the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
