In the good old foot ball time.
In the good old foot ball time,
In the good old foot ball time;
Running out around the end
Dashing through the line;
We'll hold them then and there for
downs
And that's a very good sign—
That we will beat Nebraska
In the good old foot ball time.
We must beat Nebraska.
THE COLLEGE foot ball season is now almost at its height. The last month of the season is the period in which occur the crucial contests. These last four weeks are those in which championships are decided; when the 'Varsity team either gains the pennant or hides its earlier and lesser victories with the mantel of defeat.
A team is by this time either characterized as a winner or branded as a fizzle. With the right sort of individual material and with team work, a competent coach and the support of the student body and faculty of the institution, a foot ball team at this date should have every hall mark of a winner. If it does not show up in this light, something is wrong with the team itself-or with the players individually.
Of course, if the players have not kept training, little can be expected from them in the way of results. The man who breaks training will tell the story in the gridiron work. He falls behind the player who has trained conscientiously. Perhaps there is personal dislike for each other among members of the team. This will not go. No team plays fast foot ball, no players win uphill games, who fail to play together and to depend upon one another throughout the game. A foot ball team, like a machine, must have every part in its place, at every play, as only thus can it overcome stubborn opposition. The grand stand player who desires no help from his comrades always comes to grief at the critical moment unless he does have help.
Old K. U. has all the requisites of a winning foot ball team. The team has met defeat, but not disaster. The championship games yet remain. The team is in fine condition and has a fine opportunity to win them all. We shall not throw this chance away. K. U. must be the foot ball champions of the Missouri Valley. If every loyal son of K. U. does his share upon the gridiron and off it, Nebraska and Missouri will have to step out of the race together like Alphouse and Gaston.
We must beat Nebraska.

THE APPALLING calamity that has befallen our sister institution, Purdue, shocks us particularly. Terrible accidents have become so frequent in the great world today that only the catastrophes which in some way relate to us or our family excite us to a proper horror. The University of Kansas expresses the deepest sympathy with Purdue in an hour of sorrow.
THE BOOKLET of College verse, "Ballads of the Boys," which was to have been out before now, has been delayed through a misunderstanding with the printer.
WE MUST BEAT NEBRASKA

SEATS FOR the Nebraska game will be marked off and reserved. Those having reserved seats are assured of getting them.

The new official basket ball rule book contains the statement underneath the photograph of Dr. Luther Gulick that Dr. Gulick is the inventor of the game of basket ball. It is substantially known that Dr. Naismith of the University of Kansas devised the game in 1892, while he was a student under Dr. Gulick. Efforts will be made to correct this error.
Various county clubs are being organized at the University.
The new steel stacks for the second story of the library building have arrived and will be put in place at once. The stacks were to have been here early in September, but labor disturbances made the delay.
Dr. Snow was oblidged to cancel his lecture date in Dallas, Texas on account of the illness of his wife. He was to have made an address before a meeting of the cotton convention at Dallas. His subject was to have been "The Contagious of the Insects." The subject is of special interest to the cotton growers, as an insect has come up from Mexico lately which has attacked the cotton and in the last few years has diminished it one half.

A grave question confronts the students of the University of California. The Daily Californian puts it this way: "Peanuts or rooting. Which is it to be? Either the bleachers must do without rooting or without peanuts. So says the rally committee. It is impossible to eat peanuts and yell at the same time. The yell leader and his assistants complain that every time an "Oszi" is in order, half the bleachers are busy chewing peanuts. Of course, for a man to rip off an "Oszi" with a month full of nuts would be worse than murder. The rally committee is desperate.
