LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 13. -- Tee result of
the game today in still in doubt. By acu
tual number of points scored it stands. Ne
braska six, Kansas five, but there are a
number of points in dispute.
The center for Nebraska is a Tecumseh farmer who came to Lincoln last night to play in the game. The regular center is Oury but his wind is not good so the Nebraskans had to hnnt another man.
The Nebraskas started in with the intention of winning the game by fair means or foul. There has been a constant wrangle from the time Manager McKinnie was met at the train by Manager Oury, Friday
At the end of the first half the score stood 6 to 5 in Nebraska's favor. When only twenty five minutes more of the second half were to be played the score still stood 6 to 5. When our boys kicked a field goal and Nebraska fell on the ball, the N. U. boys claimed that the score was in their favor and not ours, this making Nebraska's score 11, to our 5. A wrangle was the inevitable result.
However, the news did not cause the delay of the woman's edition, although the girls had been planning for weeks ahead to make this number of the WEEKLY a
some of the "sure thing" idea of the Nebraskans disappeared and they went into the game not over confident.
R. C GOWEIL DYAD.
The Assistant to Prot. Dyce at Kansas University. Succumb.
Last night at 9:40 Kalfp Curtis Gowell died at his home near Linwood after an illness of about three weeks. The cause of his death was intermittent malarial fever.
A short time ago Mr. Gowell was taken home, but it was not then thought that his condition was serious. He gradually grew worse and on Thursday had a hemorrhage of the stomach and from that time grew slowly weaker till death came last night
Mr. Gowell was born in the house where he died on February 19, 1873. After country schooling he attended the Friends academy at Tonganoxie, graduating in 1891. He taught school one year, and in 1892 he entered Kansas university, graduating four years later. During the last year of school he became very valuable as an assistant in Prof. Dyche's department, taking up thoroughly all the lines of work that Prof. Dyche himself had charge of, and was made assistant to Prof. Dych last summer. Prof. Dyche says he is one of the few men he has had as an assistant who seemed to take an interest in the work, and beable to grasp all its parts and carry it on even in the absence of Prof. Dyche himself. Gowell was assistant in the museum as well as in the class room, and he was very highly thought of by all his many friends.
The funeral will take place tomorrow at
evening. Not content with but one official, Cornell, of Lincoln, Oury insisted upon two Nebraska men, the other being Wilson of Omaha.
Mr. McKinnie and Coach Woodruff were firm, however, for a fair deal, but not until a half hour before time for the game to be called did Nebraska consent to abide by the original agreement and accept Mr. Kleinhans for referee.
In the first half Cowgill slugged Block-berger in the jaw and was ruled off but Nebraska refused to play and Captain Kennedy yielded and Cowgill continued to play. In the second half the ball was kicked out of bounds and Hess was held by spectators preventing him from getting it.
Kennedy and Woodruff protest the game. Woodruff made the proposition to play Nebraska Monday from sunrise to sunset and let the result determine the standing of the two teams.
Nebraska refused and insisted that the score be counted. Before the game one of the Nebraska half backs made the statement that Nebraska would win if they had to kill off all the Kansas players. There is no enthusiasm here over result

K. U. did not exactly meet defeat, but K. U. was not victorious. The game was broken up in a row, when there was twenty-five minutes more to play. However, that does not necessarily mean that K. U. would not have won the game, but our Jay Hawk boys, as gentleman, refused to play with men who wrangled over points
good, old send-off to our football heroes for adding another clean triumph to their already long list of spotless victories.
The game was the hardest one of the season. Both teams were in the best of condition, and both were confident of winning. The result of the first half was a surprise to the students at home, but notwithstanding that they felt sure our men would play like tigers in the second half.
The football team left on the 8:18 train over the Santa Fe Friday morning. About twenty-five in all went to Lincoln, including football "fans," newspaper correspondents and the subs. The team was in excellent condition, Voigts having recovered from his cold, and Kennedy's eye which was slightly injured in a practice game the other evening, was all right again. Coach Woodruff anticipated a hard game with the Nebraskans, but was confident that our boys would win after the hard training they have been undergoing.
At Lincoln much the same feeling of confidence that Nebraska would win prevailed The Nebraska team has been in hard training for two weeks with all energies set on beating Kansas at all hazards. Last Saturday Nebraska had a game scheduled with the Medics at Kansas City, but when they thought of this being a good chance for Kansas to see their method of playing they cancelled the game. In fact the Nebraskans have been "keeping still and sawing wood" and so confident were they of winning that at the time of the arrival of our team at Lincoln betting was two to one in favor of Nebraska.

Adelphic Society Meeting
The Adelphic Literary Society had an unusually large and enthusiastic meeting, last Saturday evening. The program conceived of piano solos by Miss Weber, Miss Criss, and Mr. Osborne; declamations by Messrs Peterson, Brady, and Lacy; extemporaneous speech on "The Recent Election," by Mr Morgan; original poem by Mr. Olson on "The Society work;" the program closed with the debate "Resolved, that a unicameral system of government is superior to a bicamelar system." The speakers for the affirmative were Mr. Kuttinger and Mr. Allen; on the negative, Mr. Layton and Mr. Jackson.
Prof. Adams gave an interesting critic's report. He emphasized the idea that a literary society should be a means of mental training, as well as of entertainment; that a debate should, give practice in quick logical thinking, rather than mere eloquence. He suggested, as a helpful feature of the society programs, the writing of original continued stories, the various stages of the plot to be worked out by individual members.

THE REGENTS HAVE ADOPETD IT.
PROFESSOR F. O. MARVIN'S PLAN
FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE CAMPUS.
A GENERAL IMPROVEMENT.
The Accommodations for New Buildings, the Plans for New Walks and Winding Driveways-The Grade Over the Hill Reduced.
If Professor Marvin's plan for the improvement of the campus is carried out to fulfillment, Kansas University will some day have the most beautiful college campus in the west.
During the past summer Professor Marvin has prepared a typographical map of the grounds directly around and owned by the University, showing the desired improvements for the campus. This map has been submitted to the regents for their approval, and they have voted for its adoption. The beginning of the fulfillment has come. The new seven foot walk which was laid last summer between the library and Frazer hall follows Professor Marvin's plan, as do also the five foot walk in front of the library, and the one leading from the Chancellor's residence.
So much is encouraging. However, it will be many years before these plans, which seem almost as day dreams now, can be brought to the reality itself, and many boards of regents will have met between now and then, and perhaps have done away with the plans altogether.
Professor Marvin would have the city vacate that part of Mississippi street which leads up from the foot of the hill, and that part of Adams between Oread and Mississippi streets. This would give a great deal of clear space. Orend street, leading north from the main gateway, is at present 110 feet wide, and would be divided its entire length, the mindle of it being parked.
On the ground owned by the University directly north of the library, two buildings could be placed. Across the street available space could be found for the accommodation of four more. Of these the one directly west of the library, Professor Marvin would have as a Convocation hall, for our chapel is much too small for the crowds that gather there on commencement and other occasions. A little northwest of this assembly hall, in the space obtained, partly from the vacation of Mississippi street, could be placed another large building, preferably the gymnasium. A little further down the hill would be found the Commons, a general eating house or lunch room connected with the University.
Altogether, Professor Marvin has found good sites for thirteen different buildings provided the chemistry building be torn down and a larger one put in its place. Of these buildings, four would be west of Snow hall, one—the shop building—a little above the shops and boiler house, on the slopes of the bill, and one occupying the ground now filled up with the pipe house and the carpenter shop.
Between Fraser hall, the chemistry building and Snow hall, an irregular angle would be formed, and for the straight wooden walks now used, a five foot asphalt walk, forming a Y from the two west doors of the main building, would be substitut. ed. Another quadrangle, larger and more regular, would be between Snow hall and the buildings west of it.
From the foot of the hill ob the north, a driveway would start, and so wind around to the west up over the slope of the hill, that the grade would be reduced five percent whereas now it is eleven, as wells taking one along a very pretty drive through the wooded part of our campus. This drive-way would turn and come in directly from the west, follows its way around Snow hall, pass between the Chemistry and the Main buildings, lead on in front of the Physics building and down over the brow of the hill to the southeast. Of course, other drives would join this main road
With regard to the asphalt walks, it is the plan to carry on the seven foot walk, which leads to the steps of the Main building, over to the Physics building, while a five foot walk would lead to Snow hall and beyond.
