WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1906
The usual crop of bull reports are beginning to come in from Missouri. Now they have it that our back field is "woefully weak." The Columbia correspondent hasn't been known to hit it off right in a long time when it come to a measurement of Kansas. He is off on the same tangent this year. Now it's up to us to stay on the track—that's all.
Everybody that is not going to Lincoln November 17 should go to Topeka Saturday and help make things interesting. The game will not be won in a walk by any means. Washburn is looking for a Jayhawker scalp. They always play their best game against Kansas, and it's a safe one that they will come through with the goods Saturday to the limits of their ability. If you can see anything in the bottom of your pocket that looks like a ticket and a carfare, get out your little scrap of red and blue ribbon, and we're off in a bunch.
Now that the St. Louis game is over and our contract is fulfilled, it's time for us to make one of those "morning after" resolutions, and solemnly vow never to do it again. There is nothing to be gained by playing such games from the point of view of laurels to be won. Neither does a little money, $600 for instance, compensate for a defeat of that nature.
We do not wish to be understood as criticising Manager Lansdon for insisting on living up to the contract to play the game. That was the only thing to do after it was once scheduled. As to the advisability of the contract, in the first place, it must be borne in mind that the Athletic Board ratified the schedule in its entirety before any contracts were written. The point is that we should not repeat the mistake. Let's stay in our own class, and play scholastic games or none.
The action of the athletic authorities in reading the riot act to Kansas over her open and notorious violation of the conference rules is a most significant move. If Kansas will not abide by the rules which
other large institutions are adhering to, then let us ask why should Missouri not follow the same tactics? Of course, no one wants Missouri to use men who are clearly ineligible under any construction of the rules, but if Kansas plays her graduate students, why should Missouri not do the same? If Kansas maintains a training table, why should Missouri not do the same? As for ourselves, we have never seen any reason why a man who happens to be so unfortunate as to hold an academic degree should be barred from participation in intercollegiate athletics, unless, of course that individual has played his quota of years. So we think the athletic authorities were entirely justified in saying to Kansas, if you keep a training table, and insist on playing graduates, we will play our Freshmen, graduates, and others who would be excluded under the new, but not under the old rules.-Independent.
Kansas has no fault to find with the position Missouri takes as stated in the article quoted. Let them return to 1901 conference rules as they threaten. That's what they did last year, and Kansas made no fuss about it.
As to the whole matter of Chicago Conference rules, our Athletic Board tried to arrange a triangular compact with Nebraska and Missouri, long before the season opened, adopting the new rules, but without success. Kansas does not propose to cut off chances of defeating Nebraska at this stage of the game. On the other hand we are perfectly willing for Missouri to play freshmen and graduates, and to have a training table, if they want it.

Stewed oysters at Vic's.
For instance, the man who has found this clothing establishment, and has learned to come here for his Suits, his Overcoats, his Huts, Shirts, Underwear, Neckwear, and all his toggery is certainly a lucky man.
Still there are lucky finds other than horse shoes.
A lucky find.
Had he not found us, he would, perhaps, be wearing poorer Clothes and paying as much or more for them than we ask for our garments of excellence.
Indeed, our patrons are lucky and they appreciate the fact.
Have you found us?
