SATURDAY, NOV. 20, 1909.
Those Tiger players are the polite and gentlemanly boys. Only last week Coach Mosse and a few of his men went to Columbia to pay their respects to the Missouri players, and today, in just a week, eight of the Tigers including Big Chief Roper, are here to return the visit. Kansas and Missouri are the regular Alphonse and Gaston schools.
We had better not say too much against B. Kansas. The old star may turn too and give Kanstar may turn to and give Kansas a set back and in such a case the management would probably obtain his services for next year's Jayhawkers and would play him under the name of B. Missouri. Stranger things than that have happened.
The University club at Missouri had drake for dinner Sunday after the victory over Drake University. This club is now preparing for a Jayhawker repast after the Thanksgiving game. The chances are, though, that the club will have plenty to do untieing the knot that their pet Tiger gets into his caudal appendage Thanksgiving.
How times do change. A half dozen years ago the main pastime and amusement of the whole body of the upper classmen was ducking and otherwise hazing freshmen. Today the main concern of the older men is to see that the freshmen are comfortable in their wearing apparel.
This is the season of the year when the poor Kansas and Missouri athletic managers have their hard time—taking care of the shekels and trying to find room for the crowd.
The play, "Going Some," to be given at the opera house next Wednesday offers particular attraction to college students because there are college men in the east. The star of the company is James Spottswood, a graduate of Georgetown University and one time relay partner of Duffy, the ex-sprint champion. Frank Bushman, another of the players is a graduate of Maryland University and in his undergraduate days was a track man of note. He and Spottswood were opponents in many meets and their rivalry has persisted to this day. Another college man with the company is
Bleakley Fresno. Fresno is from the University of California and he was the leader of the glee club there. The play is full of college life and the college men are able to depict it in the right way.

ON TELEGRAPH NEWS.
Associated Press Worker Spoke to newspapers Classes.
G. A. Nichols, of the Kansas City office of the Associated Press; spoke to the newspaper classes Wednesday morning on "The Work of the Associated Press."
"The Associated Press Franchise of many small papers is worth more than all the rest of the plant put together," Mr. Nichols said. He described at some length the workings of the Associated Press, how news is gathered and distributed all over the country, how news is often paid for that is never used and other technical parts of the distribution of news by telegraph.
"The greatest asset of the Associated Press is its absolute truthfulness and responsibility," said Mr. Nichols, "and its greatness has come since 1895, when Melville E. Stone became its head."
"There is coming to be, in the Associated Press as in other lines of the newspaper business,a growing demand for college men, because of their wider education and better knowledge of how to write. You no longer find the tendency to jeer at a man because of his ability to write a thesis. Today we believe that a man who can write a discussion of Goethe's philosophy of life can report a dog fight better than the man who has never had that training."
CHANCELLOR DINED OUT.
Chancellor Strong accepted an invitation to take dinner with the Bachelors' club, Wednesday, at their home at 1340 Vermont. The dinner was prepared by Frank Ward and Walter Mayer, members of the club.
Was Guest at Boys' Co-Operative Club Last Night.
The visit was an informal one and the boys were much encouraged by the attitude the Chancellor took toward their enterprise. He told them of his own college days and how in different ways he secured funds with which to pay his expenses and the means he took to economize. There were no clubs of this kind at Yale, but there were many other means for saving then as there are now. Mr. Strong conducted classes in music and played organs in churches and other places to secure funds.
The Chancellor aproves of this kind of club. He said he wished there were more of them in the University.
