PERU, Nob., Jan. 81. (Special.) The
Faculty Recreation club of previous years
has been reorganized and meets several
times each week for Indoor base ball game
and other appropriate sports.
Large numbers of requests come to the
normal for teachers each week. Many of
these are left unfilled because of a lack of
teachers ready to begin work. Many of
the seniors finish at the. end of the first
semester and go out to fllKthe many va
cant positions, but the supply ,does not
nearly meet the demand. '
The first semester closed this week and
the students have returned to their-text
books. Experience has proven that the
covers which the normal 'uses on all of
its text books has nearly doubled the life
of the books, making a great saving In this
department, which heretofore lias fallen
behind.

Benson.
TOPEKA, Jan. St At ( o'clock last
night eighteen contracts for the season of
1910 had been mailed out by Owner Dick
Cooley of the Topeka Base nail club of
the Western league. About half doi"n of
the first contracts sent out already have
bern, received back, properly signed. With
one possible exception, every other contract
on this lift will be back In Cooley's hands,
with the player's signature attached, within
the next ten days.
Other contracts will be mailed by Cooley
from Topeka from time to time, as the
spring "tryouts" become available. The
ons already mailed, however, provide for
complete base ball club. If Cooley doesn't
land another player he still will be able
to put In the field this year a club 25 per
cent stronger than last season's aggrega
tion. Here Is the list of the men to whom con
tracts have been mailed within the last two
or three weeks: Arthur Thomason, out
fielder; Jack Forrester, pitcher; Rellly,
shortstop; Kunkle, third base; Wooley, out
fielder; Kerns, catcher; Landreth, out
fielder; Wright, pitcher; Bullock, lnflelder;
Harris, pitcher; Kahl, second base; Cy
Tour.g, pitcher; Frank Maxey, catcher;
Spencer Arthur Abbott (Old Ab), first base;
Dean Roberts, lnflelder; Thomas M. Hlnde,
lnflelder; Charles Jackson, pitcher; Roy
Arnold, pitcher; Jack Roach, pitcher;
Schmidt, catcher. , ,
Most of the players whose names ap- i
pear In the last third of the above list
are tryouts. Roach anJ Roy Arnold, how- !
ever, are men who have seen service with
the Topeka club. Schmidt, who Is to be
signed as an extra member of the catch
ing staff, is an amateur who has played
sensational ball with. Southern colleges.
Roberts and Hlnde are Oregon youngsters
who have shown considerable promise In
the inner breastworks. The players whose
names are given In, the' first part of the
list are Cooley's regulars, who will play
the position assigned them throughout the
season, unless they are beaten out by some
of the more promising tryouts.
During the coming season Owner Cooley
is going to devote his entire time to the
management of the, Topeka club. Following
the example of FrsV laheii of Wichita
and Jack Holland of St. Joseph, he an
nounced yeBterday that ' he would dispose
of his billiard and pool hall so that he
would have no business interests other than
