"No player will become ineligible during the football season if he will attend classes He need not do the work. The professor will let him get behind and make up his work after the season, if the student will only attend classes. It should be the duty of the students to see that all of the players attend their classes regularly. In regard to the work of the athletic committee, it is fairly laying itself out to have a winning team this year. The faculty of the university is doing the same thing. It certainly is up to the students to do their part."
The above statement was made by that stalwart purist in athletics, one Dr. Hetherington of Missouri. Such a statement is not surprising at all for in spite of his long attempt at grand stand playing and at notoriety through the press it is generally known that Hetherington is not serious and that he will wink at any practice that will aid the athletic teams at Missouri. This is the first time that Hetherington has set at nought the eligibility rules of the Missouri Valley Conference however. It would not be at all surprising for the great purist (in matters that do not concern his own school) would excuse the Tiger team from all school work until they have received their annual drubbing from Kansas. When Missouri will go to such lengths to gain a victory it seems a shame to rob the poor thing of what it so dearly covets. But then this football business is no place for sentiment or for sympathy either. It's a shame to take the money, but we have got to do it.
"Missouri will take the Thanksgiving game from Kansas 25 to 0," is the latest from Columbia. How nice it is to know the worst so far in advance so that we can calmly and dispassionately compose ourselves for the inevitable. It would have been such a shock had the Tigers defeated us with out giving due warning of the fate that was in store for us.
The Freshman law class now has two sets of officers. No less than three sets and a whole regiment of sergeants-at-arms can keep the ordinary Freshman law class in order. Whenever the rules of order are against them they open their mouths and yell like Comanches.

SPOKE TO QUILL CLUB.
Professor Carrutn Told of Kansas Writers and Their Works.
Dr. W. H. Carruth spoke to the members of Quill Club at their meeting Tuesday afternoon about Kansas writers with special reference to those with whom he has had a more or less intimate personal acquaintance. He told of his association with Noble Prentis during the days in which that author was editor of the Lawrence Journal. Prof. Carruth read a few brief extracts from the writings of Prentis to illustrate his dry humor.
He also quoted from Eugene Ware with whom he enjoyed a personal acquaintance. With reference to James J. Ingalls Professor Carruth stated he believed that the brilliant senator would have been even more noted if he had given the time and attention to literature which he devoted to public activities.
Professor Carruth has kept in close touch with Kansas writers past and present and has an interesting collection of their productions.
