PREPARE FOR NORMALS Coaches Expect a Hard Battle with Bill Hargiss' Veteran Eleven
A hard scrimmage with the tyros was the feature of yesterday's practice for the Varsity regulars. The freshmen showed up better than usual by being able to hold the Varsity at times. The lack of scrimmage with a team other than their own gave McCauley the opportunity to get plays ready and their appearance last night showed that they had benefited by it.
The fact that Hargiss is bringing a veteran squad against Kansas is causing no little concern. The roots from the Emporia school are coming in a special train and this alone would indicate that they have a team worth supporting. Only two men of last year's squad did not return this fall and the abundance of material causes confidence in their team.
The game Saturday with Bill Hargas* Emporia Normalis is looked upon by the coaches as a hard one for so early in the season. All effort now is being directed toward this game and in spite of the fact that the Normals are veterans the Kansans have a chance to change the Emporia dope. Secret practice was held Monday to give the men some play which will not disappoint the freshmen yesterday. Another secret practice is to be held this afternoon for the perfecting of these and giving some new plays.
The weak spot in the Kansas line was somewhat remedied by the return of a veteran center. Keeling showing up in his last year's form and as soon as he gets on to Olcott's style of play he will be a dependable lineman. He will face the Norman in the game Saturday, when broken fingered along nicely and he can be able to play in the first Conference game a week from Saturday. His "beef" will be needed in the Jayhawk line later in the season.
HOME ECONOMICS TAKES
OLD INFIRMARY BUILDING
Miss Gwin's class in home economics and sanitation made a trip out to the old infirmary Monday for practice work in home decoration. The building has been turned over to the department of home economics to be used as a practice house. The class took notes on its present condition and later in the year, will write on the "Complete Remodeling of the House as It Should Be."
It has not been definitely decided what use the department may make of their new acquisition, but it will probably be used for a practice house, to serve as a model home.

WAR STOPS IMPORTATION OF LIQUID AIR RECEPTACLES
If the European war continues long, the supply of delicate vacuum flasks at the Chemistry Blinding, used to hold liquid air will run out. These jars are made exclusively in Germany. Professor Cady reports on hand, enough unless the entertainers most of them become too numerous.
In the manufacture of liquid air, a pressure of 2500 pounds to the square inch is applied to the air, after which it is forced through a copper coil packed in wool, and allowed to cool to the temperature of the room and expand. A small percentage of the air liquifies and passes off into the vacuum jars.
BAD SPIRIT BROUGHT
HIM SEVERE PADDLING
A freshman paid dearly for a display of bad spirit near the Administration Building this morning. When some sophomores and upperclassmen not after him for not wearing his cap, he backed into a corner and drew a pair of brass "knuckles." After a little hesitation some men seized him and a paddle party took place in which no one struck lightly.

The sport writer for the Aggie school paper gives Kansas a chance at third place in the Missouri Valley pennant race this year. The Cornhuskers are considered invincible and are granted first place. Ames comes second in the rating with Kansas and Missouri fighting for the earth. The Ames wrestles, accord. The Ames report, is based on the fact that they have Mayser, an ex-Yale man, to guide them. It might be added that Kansas also has an ex-Yale man of known ability working with the gridiron squad.
Niedorp, Missouri's star quarter milier, is not in school this year. Every conceivable plan is being tried by the Tiger coaches to get him to return for the second semester and track season. The Jayhawkers, of course, dislike to see Missouri lose a track man for she will need him. If there is anything we can do, let us know.

More good news from the Sooner camp. The Oklahoma line is described as a stone wall stronger than the Dardanelles. The two Hotts are better than ever and a year's experience has helped C. Bell at center. Anderson at left tackle and Fields and Montgomery at ends are considered the best Sooner linemen.
Along with other coaches who are having trouble comes Bennie Owen to worry about his Sooner backfield. His trouble seems to be which man will be best for a position rather than hunting for new material. With McCashand at left, half and Swetsch at right, Goyer and Capshaw fighting with other new men for the backfield jobs Owen should not lose much sleep.
The Kansas Aggies are swelling with pride over the fact that Ty Cobb once played in Manhattan against the Aggies in 1906. That's nothing. Ty once went through Lawrence on the Rock Island.

Games with the Jayhawkers are to be the attractions for homecomers' day at many Missouri Valley schools this fall. Oklahoma, Missouri and the Kansas Aggies have already begun extensive advertising campaigns to get their alumni back for the occasion. Oklahoma is issuing the system of awards to the student in the University write to some alumnus in his home town urging him to come to Norman to see the Jayhawkers humbled.
ON OTHER GRIDIRONS
Normals with 18 Letter Men and Owen Worrying over too much Material
The Kansas Normalms have a veteran squad to present against K. U. in the game Saturday. Only two men on last year's team were lost by graduation and the prospects of a victory over the Jayhawkers are unusually low, according to the Normaltes. Jay Bond, assistant K. U. mentor, says he doesn't know how many old men the Emporia bunch has beck but he thinks there are eighteen letter men "hanging" around out there waiting for a chance to play against Kansas.
A big program is being arranged at Manhattan for the alumni who return for the K, S, A, C-K. U, game October 23. As a feature of the day Ed. T. Hackey, president of the Board of Administration, will do the kick-off stunt. Dr. Henry J. Waters, president of the Agricultural School, will serve as honorary referee while Chancellor Strong will be the umpire.
Coach Bender of the Aggies is worrying about the lightness of his team this year. His men are mostly all new at the game and the term, "awkward squad" is used applying to the Varsity. A plan and a demand for "beef" have been issued by the Aggie mentor. The squad will only average 163 pounds while the average age is twenty years. Bender says that they all have the fighting spirit and that he must depend on this to make for the lack of weight.
Missouri students are viewing with alarm the fact that Kansas has a veteran line this year. The return of Hammond, the 210 pound guard, surprised them as much as it did the Kansas coaches. The Tigers have an abundance of material but it is not of the veteran type.
Schultze has a man in the Tiger backfield who has about the same reputation as our Woods. His name is Woody and he is going to be the mainstay of the Missourians at fullback. Collins and Giltner at the two halves and Rutledge at quarter make the rest of the backfield. Captain Speelman is stopping everything
that comes near left end this year but the rest of the line is not as dependable.
L. B. FLINTOM TO SAIL
WITH MOVIE SHIP PARTY
With a party headed by Rex Beach and Dr. E. A. Salisbury, L. B. Flinton, a sophomore in the College and member of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity will sail for Central America, October the fifteenth. Flintom is not certain as to the return date, but hopes to be back in time to enter school next fall.
The expedition will take moving pictures of the fish, bird and animal life of the islands of Central America. A party of ten will sail from New York on their own boat, the Wanderer. There will be two camera men, five members of the crew, besides Rex Beach, Dr. Sallisbury, and L. B. Flintom. About 20,000 feet of film is to be taken, the best of which will be used.
Cap Advice Wanted
Some of the specials are rather concerned about the phrase "first year men must wear their caps." There are a number of these students who have attended other universities and who are not freshmen, and some of these do not know whether to wear the caps or not. They are seeking some kindly advice on the matter, guaranteed to proceed from some source other than the paddle.
