STUBBS BROKE
HIS RIGHT LEG
Freshman Tackle Can Play No More This Season—Great Loss to Freshman Squad
VARSITY IS IN FINE FORM
Lindsey, Fiske, and Kabler Showed "Lots of Stuff" in Scrimmage Yesterday
The most serious accident of the year marred the Jayhawkier squad's practice on Hamilton Field yesterday. The player, who was on the freshman squad, broke a leg.
In some manner, the freshman tackle got his legs tangled up with "Humpty" Wilson, and when the Varsity bailed piles on top of him, a bone in his right leg was broken just above the drill. Dr. H. T. Jones, who was on the team, and then who set the leg, last stated night that not only would Stubbs be out of school for three weeks, but that he would be unable to play any more football this season. Stubbs displayed a remarkable amount of nerve after he was injured. He joked and laughed while the doctor was setting his leg and while his team-mates were carrying him to the club-house.
The scrimage yesterday was a scrappy affair from start to finish, and every spectator who saw the Varsity in action has little doubt of the outcome of Saturday's game with the Aggies. K. U. will win, not because she lost two games early in the season and then suffered a disastrous slump, but because she had the stamina to recover from that slump.
A drop kick by Captain Lindsey and touchdowns by Fiske and Ruble gave the Varsity a victory over the fighting freshmen, who held the regulations without a gain for twelve downs before the last score was made. The yearlings made one touchdown. Nettles and Stubbs, freshman tackles, featured in every fresh play. Lindsey and Fisco showed up best on the Varsity. Both gained ground consistently and Ruble played exceptionally well on defense. Kabler again showed well in the line. He seems to be due to cause one of the tackles some trouble in holding his job.
A TENTATIVE LINE-UP
TENNATIVE LEAGUE
Although a substantive lineup has been given out for the Aggie game, it looks as though Shinn and Reid would be the choice of the coaches for the end positions. Burton and Frost are both doing well at the tackle jobs, but Kabler may replace one of them. Vernon and Smith will play in the back positions, with Miner at center. Foster is a certainty at quarter, as is Nielsen at full. Captain Lindsey will play one of the halfback positions. There is much speculation as to who his running mate will be. Flake seems to have the edge on Ruble and Cowen, but no one else seems likely to them to start the game. Injuries to Pringle and Russell may prevent their being chosen.
SHOES, JUST SHOES,
CAUSE IT ALL.
Make Trouble for Women.
Shoes—stubby-toed and pointed, high-heeled and low-heeled, fashionable and orthopedic—are the subjects of the talks that Miss Hazel Pratt, instructor in physical education, is teaching mass in corrective exercises this week.
"The trouble with women at present," said Miss Pratt this morning, "is that they have a perverted sense of right and wrong. They heeled and pointed look better than the square-toed, low-heeled ones; but if they once experienced the comfort of wearing sensible shoes, they would never be able to see the cities of today that deform their feet.
"When you see a woman mincing along in places where a man walks unhesitatingly, it is not because she is a poor weak thing. Her shoes are keeping her toes from performing their natural gripping function and consequently she needs to be helped along.
"The orthopedic shoe built to fit the foot is rapidly being adopted, especially by college women. At some of the Eastern schools, notably Wellesley, the square-toed, low-heeled, ground-gripping shoe is practically the only footwear seen on the campus."
Swimming has increased in popularity among the women since two good hair dryers have been added to the equipment at the gym. "Hockey and swimming appeal to so many of the women it is soft for floor work," said one of the enthusiastic, athletic women.

BOCKER TELLS OF WORK WITH WESTINGHOUSE
L. N. Bocker, e'15, is now with the Westinghouse Electric Company, Pittsburgh, Pa., gave an illustrated talk on the electrification of the Norfolk & Western Railroad to the members of the American Institute of Electric Engineers in Marvin Hall last night.
Mr. Bocker also told of his experiences during his first year with a large company. He says Kansans have no idea of the amounts of fuel and energy East. The loaded freight cars tied up in New York City extend for miles in every direction. The result is that all goods are shipped from one to two months for delivery.

TEAM NOT SO BAD
--SAYS CLEVENGER
Aggies Poor Showing Against Normals Due to Jayhawkers' Presence
Manhattan, Oct. 26. --Agrie practice this week took the form of heavy workouts on end runs and forward passes in preparation for the annual football season, which is put under way. Every afternoon the Farmer gridironists are drilled in fakes and new formations, all designed with the special purpose of humbling the pride of the Jayhawk and of turning the team into a Purple and White victory.
Aggie stock, which declined following the poor showing against the Emporia Normals Saturday, shot up above par again today with the declaration from Coach Clevenger that only a small part of the Aggie offence was committed by the Teachers, due to the presence in the stands of Coach Potsy Clark, Captain Lindsey, and a number of other Jayhawker spectators.
Only one fake, a split play with Randels carrying the ball, was used during the course of the game. Not only that, but Randels was as was used against the Nebraska Cornhuskers, and few of the new formations were used against the Champions after Clevenger diagnosed defensive powers of the Stewart eleventh.
The Kansas game has been the big objective of the Aggie coaching during the season. A defeat of K. U. would in itself brand the Purple and White football season a success, but a win against it would be best football against the Nebraskans in that 0 to 14 defeat, and will once more exhibit their best wares against the Missouri Tigers here November 11, every game on the schedule of the Big Ten. The big slogan of every Aggie gridiron season—"Beat K. U."
DIGGING FOR COAL HERE
Actual Work Has Started on K. U. Mine
Actual work has been started on the proposed coal mine for the University.
The shaft is four feet square and is located 4-5 short distance southeast of Haworth Hall. This shaft may or may not be permanent, because it is a prospecting shaft, but if coal is found it might need to be drilled. Terrific head of the mining department, thinks there is coal under Mount Oread.
The work on the shaft is being done by Harry J. Abbey, m2'0, who has been connected with the mining business for several years.
Professor Terrill will have his classes do practical work in the mine. A new course is to be added to the schedule of the University next semester, which will have to do with special work in practical mining.
BAD WEATHER STOPS
DOUBLES IN TENNIS MEET
The all-university tennis doubles will probably have to remain uncompleted unless the weather clears up for a couple of days. The faculty had fine prospects to make up for their loss in the "singles." They had three teams in the semi-finals to the students two teams. The faculty teams were, well, two. Who's Whelan-Kidwell, Prof Smith-Stratton. The student teams were night at the Sigma u house. The *eal*
If the results of the "singles" may be considered as "Dope" on the loubles, the championship would not have weeted them. Nor Robert Carter-Mierke team and the Jhls-Cowgill team, as they were the ast four in the single finals.

CROSS COUNTRY BEGINS SATURDAY
Dual Meet With Aggies Will Be Curtain Raiser for Football
The first cross country meet of the season will be Saturday afternoon as a curtain raiser for the K. U.-Aggie game, when the Kansas squash meets the K. S. A. C. team. The runners will start from McCook Field at 2:05 and finish across the fifty yard line on the field just before the game is called. Last week, Keys, the best Aggie, won the course at Manhattan in 28 minutes.
Capt. Staterle, Rodkey, Groene, Holden, Welsh, Brown, Washington, and Dillon will run the distance for Kansas and the first six men to finish in the national championship last year. Prospects seem to indicate an easy victory for the K. U. men. Welsh has been doing consistent work for the past week and this further strengthens his chances of up his regular run of five miles in spite of the cold rain Tuesday.
The runners will be scored according to the position in which they finish, the first runner counting one point, the second, the third, the two points, the third three, etc.—the team having the lowest number of points winning. Only five men count in the scoring. They will run up Mismatch and Squad Building, north to the Country Club. The course from there in is by the Fourth street road to Maine street, on Maine, to Tenth street, to Maine, on Illinois street to MeCook Field.
The annual Fall Interclass meet will be held on Friday, Nov. 10, on McCook Field. All classes compete and medals are given to winners of first, second, third, and fourth place. The juniors won the meet last fall but the sophomores and juniors will be in the running in the coming meet.

Thirty-five Men Reported at Gym for Practice Last Night
A record early-season turnover for Varsity basketball was made last night when thirty-five men eligible for Varsity competition worked out in Robinson Gymnasium. Coach Hamilton and Assistant Coach "Dutch" Uhrlaura directed the play. Captain "Fat" Nelson divided the men into seven teams which scrimmaged against each other.
Many old men on the squad were out for the practice last night. The Uhrlaub twins, Gibben, Kauder, Lyle, and Reed all prominently in the games last season; and Pausch, who made good showings last year, but who did not win letters. In addition, some twenty-four other men, mostly sophomores, were out in the scramble for places on the team. Appel, a mainstay on the squad last season, has not yet reported.
A general workout was the order for the men last night, and that will
be the order for some weeks to come,
according to Coach Uhlraub. Not
until after the football season will
practice be held every night. Two
weeks of practice are a suitable.
The men begin about seven
o'clock and play for two hours.
"The squad looks good," said Captain Nelson at the close of last night's scrimmage. "There's a great deal of spirit among the men; and I think they're all in sync, all long, hard road ahead of her to the Valley championship this year."
The freshmen scrimmaged with the
Varsity for the first time last night.
The first year men will practice reg-
ularly on the first day of season
on two nights a week. The number
of freshmen equalled the Varsity last night.
