Kansas 6 Colorado 6.
Best Game of Season-Both Teams Play Fine Ball-Each Makes a Touch Down.
In a game replete with nervestraining excitement, K. U. and Colorado tied on McCook field today. The final score was 6 to 6, the last whistle finding the ball within five yards of Colorado's goal line. For Kansas, the whole team deserves special mention. Michaelson's work at center was above even his usual high standard, while the line bucking of Brunner and McCarty, the end running of Ise, and Pooler's kicking were excellent.
Colorado's gains were made chiefly on a tandem line buck which seemed able to consistently tear holes in the K, U, line.
The score is especially significant in the light of the fact that Colorado defeated Nebraska a week ago, 6 to 0, and were "doped" by Western papers in general for the Western Championship.
The weather was almost perfect for football and the crowd large and enthusiastic.

BRILLIANT WORK OF POLICE.
The Kansas football team scored a great victory and hundreds of students and the K. U. band were out celebrating as they should to show their appreciation of the victory. The students bought some harmless fireworks and while shooting them two of the boys were arrested and the fireworks destroyed. It seems as if the police force takes special delight in arresting K. U. boys.

THE FRAT DEBATES.
Meeting of Representatives at Prof. Frazier's—Committee Appointed-All the Fraternities Except One Represented Debates Will Probably Be After Christmas.
Representatives from all the fraternities met Wednesday evening at the home of Prof. Frazier to arrange plans for the coming inter-strateny debate, which will take place in about two months. A committee consisting of Wirty McCarty, of the Phi Delts, Malcolm Garrard, of the Sigma Chis and George Guernsey of the Phi Gams, was appointed to arrange a method by which the debate may be conducted. The proposed plan is to select the subject of one of the interstate debates; form a class of all the candidates and study the subject for the next two months. At the end of that time each fraternity will select one representative. The eight contestants will meet in one debate and the decision will be given to the best man instead of the best team. Another meeting will be held at Prof. Frazier's residence next Wednesday evening.
