LAWRENCE, KAN., DEC. 2,, 1899
Kansas University has a never defeated football eleven. It has a team that has scored 163 points against against thirty-eight scored by opposing teams. Four teams have scored against the 'Varsity, and one of these scores was very questionable. Ottawa was given a touchdown on a plain steal, Drake made a score on an accidental get away, Nebraska made twenty points against the Varsity not by team work or by playing football but on account of Benedict's phenomenal place kicking. The Tigers secured a well earned touchdown in the Thanksgiving game. This is a wonderful record for any team to make. Such a record could be made only when there was perfect harmony among the players and between the management and the coach. Manager Ellott has given the boys the best that money could buy. They have had the best possible care and everything in the way of equipment that is on the market. Elliot has been the best manager K. U. has had. He has spent time and energy and had troubles that no body knows of but he has a team of which all Kansas is proud. He has no knockers and everybody is praising his work.
It would be impossible to speak too highly of Coach Yost's work. He has coached the winning team for the past two years. He has more knowledge of foot ball than any coach Kansas has ever had. Besides this Y st is a gentleman. There has never been a disagreement between him and the players. The boys love Yost, and will do whatever he says without questioning. Yost can have the job next year with an increased salary, so far as the WEEKLY is concerned, or the football enthusiasts.
Mr. Arthur St. Leger Mosse and his relations to the Kansas and Missouri football teams have occupied much space in the dailies lately. M., Mosse's record in the past has not been an enviable one, and his "defences" in the Kansas Otty papers have certainly not raised him in the estimation of the public, and especially of Kansas university. Our opinion of Mr. Mosse before his connection with Kansas university was decidedly unfavorable, and subsequent events have not changed our opinion. We think we express the general feeling when we say we are glad that Moose had left Kansas university, and that Missouri was amply welcome to all the benefit his services could do her.
The detractors of football who are continually raising the cry of professionalism seem incapable of understanding a true love of sport, and think that no man will participate in athletics, except for a financial consideration. The man in any college who would not be proud of his Alma Mater on the football or base ball field is an exception. The deed itself is the highest reward and none other is needed or asked.
As usual the band did noble work at Kansas City and showed how useful such as organization can be. Let the good work go on.

Social Life at K. U.
"Where one student goes to one extreme in social affairs, five go to the opposite." This quotation from the last number of the WEEKLY indicates a serious condition among our students. A hermit life at the University is not calculated to develop a man of great value to society after graduation. We desire to see our Alma Mater send forth men and women of broad culture, who will be able to mingle with people of refinement, who will be fit reflectors of the University. Such a man must be developed along social lines, as well as be an honor学生 in his class.
Although some of the students at K. U. need no special encouragement in this regard, yet there are many whose social life begins with communion with a room mate in a barren room and ends with conversation at a stag club; while there are a few who reach the awful extreme of living alone and doing their own cooking.
There is one organization which exists to perform the mission of generous helpfulness to all students. To meet this social need the Y. M. C. A has a pleasant home where frequent open evenings and more formal social gatherings are held; a place where a man may meet his fellows under most pleasant surroundings, with no fearful black boards, no cavalry charges nor portentious flunks to occupy his attention. With the happy co-operation of the Y. W. C. A these affairs are doubled in size and trebled in attractiveness and general value. The social work which these organizati ns are doing deserves the gratitude not only of those who need such special opportunity for this development, but also of all friends of K. U., who wish to have our graduates strong men and women.

Oliver Scott's colored production will be the next attraction at the opera house. It is said to be a most pleasing and entertaining study of negro life. The actors are selected from the best of colored artists; the music, singing and dancing specialties are the brightest, jolliest kind, which can not fail to make the show a success, and a profitable engagement is looked for.
A Freshman wandering through the mechanical laboratory of Fowler shops saw some of the students repairing a table, came out and reported that the mechanical engineers were now making bowling alleys.

A pretty home wedding was that which took place Tuesday night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W, H. Duncan, when their daughter, Miss Veda Baillie, was married to Mr. George W. Stephenson, of Cotton - wood Falls. The Duncan home was prettily decorated for the occasion with evergreens and ferns, the bay window in the front parlor, where the ceremony took place, being a veritable mass of feathery green. Miss Kate Turner played the wedding march from Lohengrin during the entrance of the bridal party and during the ceremony, which was performed by the Rev. Mr. Bamford, played Annie Laurie. Mendelsohn's wedding marriage was played immediately after the ceremony. The young couple were unattended. The bride was gowned in a handsome tailor made costume of blue gray cloth, heavily stitched. An elaborate supper was served just before thebridial pair left, in the traditional shower of rice, for the 9:32 train for Kansas City. They will spend a few days there before going to their home in Cottonwood Falls, where they will be at home after December 15. Mr. and Mrs. Stephenson received many beautiful wedding gifts, the silverware being particularly handsome. Mrs. Stephenson is so well in Lawrence as to make any comment on her lovely personality quite unnecessary. She has lived here all her life and was last year graduated from the University. Mr. Stephenson is also well known here having attended Kansas university for several years, during which time he was prominent in every phase of the college life. He is now super-intendent of Chase county.-Lawrence Journal
