AGGIES OUTWEIGH
JAYHAWKER SQUAD
Will Enter the Game With Ten Pounds Advantage in Avoirdupoise
The aggregation which will line up against the Kansas team in the next affair in Jayhawker football circles will outweigh the Mosez-Frank men nearly ten pounds per man. The Aagie line averages 190 pounds and the whole team including the backs will tip the scales at 180 pound mark.
Up to this time with the exception of the Nebraska game the Lowman prodigies have been content to make their gains on straight line plays. Whether they can gain through the Kansas line will depend largely on how fast the Jayhawker linesmen are able to charge.
The Farmer boys though large are slow on their feet and this should some-what equalize their advantage in weight. Holmes, Left tackle and Stahl an end are the stars in the line. Both men have an amazing excellent ball in previous contests.
In the back field Prather at full back is the best lugger of the pigkin. In all the games he has shown up good as a line bucker, as well as a consistent kicker. Most of his kicks average nearly fifty yards.
However, the Lowman camp have been holding continuous secret practice for the last week and it is probable that if they find themselves unable to gain on line plays they will use the forward pass style of game such as was used against the Jacksonians in them flicked them a touchdown, showing that the Manhattan lads are not altogether unacquainted with this style of play.
FRANK FORMER MAL
OF MIKE GIBBON'S.
Coaches' First Introduction to Pugilis a Boyhood Encounter over Marble.
The Sophomore boxing classes will have as instructor an old friend of Mike Gibbons, conceded to be one of the cleverest boxers in the world. Coach Frank, who charges of this class, has coached with Gibbons for a good many years.
"In fact," says Frank, "we began sparring, if sparring you could call it, in the midst of a marble game a good many years back, resulting from a disagreement as to who was the winner of a certain marble. We boxed often together from then on, up until Gibbons went into professional work and I turned my attention to college and football."
Coach Frank is planning, after the football season is over, to interest all the players in this sport as well as wrestling. A winter's work-out at boxing will make one each a better football player he believes.

SHOW FOOTBALL SPIRIT
SAYS PROFESSOR HILL
When Team goes Away Accompany is to Station, he urges his Class.
Professor Hill yesterday told his Middle Law Class that it would be a fine thing if the whole class would establish the precedent of accompanying the football team to the station and on when they were going on a trip.
"Also, when they come home," he said, "bear to them meet, and let them know you appreciate their efforts to uphold the honor of the school.
"They do this at, Missouri, and at Bowdin every atheletic team, and the debating teams, are accompanied to the train by the cheering rooters.
"This is the spirit that counts, that helps the team to win victories, and if you go, let me know and if it isn't too late I will go with you."

JOHNSON & CARL
TWO OLD STARS
WILL HELP COACH
Frank Dodge and "Swede Carlson Answer the Call for Assistance
Two more coaches were added to the coaching staff last night by the arrival of Frank Dodge, guard of the team of 1902 and Swede Carlson, famous center of the victorious team of 1908. Both men seemed well pleased with the workout last night and evinced their opinion that the Jay-hawk should return the winner in Saturday's contest.
Both of these men will assist Coach Frank by giving each of the Jayhawk linemen some individual attention. This is undoubtedly a weak spot in the aggregation due to the shift caused by the loss of Hatcher, one of the best and most aggressive linesmen.
No More Open Practice.
Followers of the team were greatly disappointed last night by the fact that no Wednesday open scrimmage was staged but it is the intention of Coaches Mosse and Frank that from now on all scrimmages will be staged behind closed gates.
In last night's scrimage the Mosse-Machine showed up well as usual on the offense but the defense proved weak in spots. Householder was given a trial on end. The rest of the line was the same as that of the previous evening.
SCRIMMAGE NOTES
The practice last night was the stiffest of the season. After running signals for almost an hour, the freshmen were brought in for a scrimmage. Following this, signals were run until it was too dark to see the pigekin.
It looks like Old Man Hard Luck is close on the heels of the team. Cooldidge was injured again. On the first play after he was put in he was tackled around the neck by one of the first year men and the result was the tearing loose of several muscles just below the neck along the spine. The accident may keep him out of the game for the rest of the season.
The team all showed more pep last night. At that it wasn't enough to suit the coach from the north. Coach Frank kept after the men all through the practice trying to make them fight harder.
Three new men reported for practice yesterday. They were Hicks, Jackson and Staley. They were the first to respond to Coach Mosse's call for more men.
DEAN SUSPECTS MOSQUITOS OF CARRYING PARALYSIS
Dean S. J. Crumbine, of the School of Medicine of the University of Kansas, is beginning experiments to determine whether or not infant paralysis is carried by mosquitos.
"We know that infantile paralysis is contagious and one investigator in the east has succeeded in transmitting the disease from one monkey to another by the bite of the common stable fly." said Dr. Crumbine. "It seems probable that carried an unidentified sucking insects like a stable fly and mosquito and we are preparing to make a thorough test of this as soon as possible."
Infantile paralysis is worse in Kansas at the present time than a year ago, but not nearly so bad as two years ago. There are almost one hundred cases in the state at the present time and there have beer many deaths. The disease appears to be being more near Eastern states, the state authorities are doing the hardest work there. There have been many cases in Anderson, Bourbon, Allen and other counties in the same neighborhood.
The testing of Kansas brick, cement, and concrete is a part of the daily work of the engineering testing laboratories maintained for service to the state.

STIEHM'S TROUBLES ARE COMING NOW
Cornhuskers in Poor Physical Condition—Many Shifts
Made
Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 23—Jumbo Stiehm, Nebraska football instructor and director of athletics, evidently figures that the Cornushker team is badly in need of repairs. He has decided upon a good shakeup in the team. Halligan being shifted from the backfield to the line and Mastin who has been playing end being changed to guard. The coach seems willing to sacrifice weight to speed and aggressiveness, although his change may be too tough. Some players in the team have had a tendency to loat at times and it is thought that the change will wake up a few.
Secret practice is the order of the day now and no one at all is allowed on the field, the freshmen squad being sent to the State Farm for practice except when a good scrimmage is wanted.
The team is in poor physical condition. Harmon, tackle, is still out of the game with a bad ankle and Potter, quarter, suffered a fracture of a bone in the ankle in last night's scrimage. The team was pretty badly used up in the Minnesota game but is recovering nicely now.
