Nebraska has accepted the proposal of Kansas and it is only a matter of days until Kansas and Nebraska will have resumed athletic relations.
The freshman - sophomore game was the cleanest, best matched game played on McCook Field this year. Both teams are to be congratulated on their work and the good spirit which they showed.
Will Bailey's account of stopping long lines of street cars in celebrating a football victory in the Quaker City sounds like a fairy tale of unattainable bliss. What an uproar that would cause on the streets of Lawrence where students hardly dare to talk aloud after a football game!
Nebraska has appointed the dean of her law school and Captain Benedict as representatives to confer with Kansas. Our board could do no better than to send Dean Green and C. O. Pingry, of the Athletic board, to meet these gentlemen. The place of meeting should be in Kansas City, midway between the two schools.
If, as Chancellor Strong insists, the real football problem is to bring it into proper relation to college scholarship, Kansas can stand the test and come out triumphant. At no time
this year has any man been in the game whom the strictest construction of rules could affect.
Kansas had nothing to win, by way of reputation, in the Haskell game and everything to lose. Haskell had beaten no one of importance and had played poor ball throughout the season. But just before the Kansas game she began to send out word to all the wandering Redskins to come home and help "wallop" the Jayhawkers. By the aid of these men, like Oliver and St. Germain, she hoped to defeat Kansas and end the season in a blaze of glory.
FOOTBALL REVIEW.
The Games Saturday Preliminary
Night at The Throne Room
The football games Saturday were simply the finding of places before the championship series of Thanksgiving day. In the East, Yale got a clear field to the pennant by defeating Princeton 23 to 4. True, the Yale-Harvard game is yet to be played, but Harvard has done little this season and her defeat by Yale promises to be even more decisive than usual. Princeton marred the clear record of the sons of "Old Eli" by a drop kick from the 43 yard line. In the second half Yale introduced her famous open play system by which she ran up 53 points against the Columbians of New York a week ago. Hutchinson, the Yale quarterback, was the star, making one run of 70 and another of 28 yards.
In the Lake region, Wisconsin was beaten 12 to 0, thus losing all chances for the championship. Michigan made her first touchdown by getting the ball on Wisconsin's 4 yard line from Melzner's tumbling of a punt. In the second touchdown Yost's boys marched down the field for 80 yards on straight football.
Chicago proved that she will be a worthy antagonist for Michigan on Thanksgiving day

by beating Illinois 44 to 0. Twenty-five of these points were made by Eckersall, the whirlwind quarter-back. He kicked five field goals and made one touchdown. If the field is in good condition on Thanksgiving day, the Ann Arbor boys dare not let the Maroons get within forty yards of the goal or Eckersall's toe will add 4 points to the score. Michigan beat Illinois a few weeks ago by a score of 34 to 0.
Missouri was beaten by Washington University 14 to 10. The Tigers, if press reports are correct, played a listless game. Nebraska was beaten by Minnesota 35 to 0. The only redeeming feature of the game for the Nebraskans was the phenomenal work of Benedict the cornhusker quarter-back and captain. Nebraska has made a poor showing with the "Big Nine" colleges; her defeat by Michigan 31 to 0 and the stunning blow of 35 to 0 last Saturday put her entirely out of that class.
Fifth Year of Football.
Eager and Johnson, two members of the Nebraska football team who will line up against the Gophers Saturday, are, if history does not lie, playing their fifth year of inter-collegiate football.
The matter has been aired in the newspapers and the affair has even gone so far that definite proof of this assertion has been furnished.
Minnesota will take no action in this matter. Nebraska can easily satisfy herself as to the truth or falsity of these reports, and Minnesota is relying upon her to take any action that may seem necessary. It is Nebraska's move.-Minnesota Daily.
Spanking Machine in Order.
Avon Nottingham made a friendly call in the Electrical Labratory several days ago and was greeted with a "warm reception." When Avon got out from under the spanking machine he was loud in declaring his intentions to have the whole bunch expelled from the University.
