Season
Coach Clark's squad of fighting Jayhawks arrived this morning at Linnein in the best of condition and are raring to go into the fray with the Nebraska Cornhuskers on Saturday afternoon.
Indications Favor Real Battle Every thing is in favor of a genuine battle between the two schools tomorrow. Coach Clark roars from the best condition of the season and that all the best men of the squad will go into the line-up at the beginning of the game. The Cormihakers are also known and it is well understood that their line is fast as well as heavy.
The Nebraska "Corn-Cobs," the pop organization of the University, met the team on its arrival and showed it the best of care.
The game will be played in the new Memorial Stadium and on one of the best fields in the country. The field premises to be in proper condition have been prevalent in that section. The weather man has promised the teams a clear day with a brisk wind blowing from the northwest. Reports of bad weather present the thermometer is howing around thirty-eight degrees.
This morning "Petsy" took his squad of twenty-six out on the field for some light work and walked them through their signals. If the team didn't have a signal, it probable that Captain Black will call some signals that will bring the entire stadium of spectators to their feet for "Petsy" is planning to use them as a crowd control device to enable the Jayhawk bird to bring home the bacon.

Holds Down Fullback Position Is Fast, Accurate Passer and Good Kicker
Former M. L. Football Star Chosen Captain of Freshman Team
Harold Smith, c.26, of Elkhart, former star on the University of Missouri football, baseball, and track squads, was elected captain of the freshman team at an election held by the squad Thursday afternoon. The election was held on the freshman field.
Smith, who has been one of the most promising of the first year men, has been working as fullback on the first-stretch yearling team. While holding down this position he has made several lengthy gains through the varsity line during scrimmages. He is fast, an accurate passer, and also kicks with considerable ability.
Last year Smith was a student at the University of Missouri and was locked up as one of the most understudied players. He held down the position of fullback in the

That the new freshman captain is speedy is shown by the fact that he made the hundred in 10 1-5 while a member of the yearling track squad at Missouri. He was regular third baseman on the freshman baseball team and was actively engaged in other campus activities while there.
"Ham" was going good last night. For at least an hour he kept the crowd in puff while waiting for the crowd to arrive. Shades of Sandy Winsor!

At that, he can probably think up more ways of getting a "hell yes" out of the crowd than could the versatile Sandy.
The girls made about as much noise when the questions were asked as did the rougher element.
Those who attended got a glimpse of the Aggie battlers on their way
to play Ames. The gents from the cow college had a car on the same train as did the Jayhawkers.
The Aggies looked big and dangerous—how dangerous we'll know when the return comes in Saturday evening; Ames has one of the fastest and hardest playing aggregations in the Valley.
Even Krueger blushed when he was introduced as, "the best looking man in school." Looks like a frameup.
Even at that, "Ox" did look like one of the best ends in the valley last Saturday. The Missouri scout commented upon the fact.
Charlie Black evidently believes that silence is golden. The "skipper" refused to open up and tell the gang what it was all about.
"Conch Clark ordered that no speeches be made and what he says goes," said Charlie. "Some of the men who come in are bring back a witchcraft* however."
The irregular payroll of the University will close at noon Oct. 22.

American Legion Adopts Ku Klux Klan Proposa
(United Press)
San Francisco, Oct. 19.—The fifth annual convention of the American Legion convened for its last session today. Election of national officers, meeting of the national executive committee, and a great closing celebration tonight, were scheduled as its final acts.
The convention adopted the Ku Klux Klan proposal late Thursday afternoon, after a brief debate. The group said in a statement that the Klan by name specifically,
it condemned organizations which "fostered racial, religious, and class strife."

You won't lose your voice at the game or rally if you take a package of Nyals Huskeys along with you. Practically all public speakers and singers use them and find them of indispensible worth. Nyals Huskeys have real medicinal value and are pleasant to the taste.

Are You Ready Kansas? Are You Ready Nebraska?
A shrill whistle, the thud of a heavy toe against the football, and the game is on.
Oh, Boy! Wouldn't it be great if we could be all on the side-lines at Nebraska, Saturday,
yelling the old "Rock Chalk" at the top of our lungs and cheering the Crimson and Blue on to
history? You bet it would! But shucks; we can't all go.
But we can all go to Robinson Gymnasium Saturday and see the game on the electric score board.
The Grid-Graph football score-board which will be erected in the Gym Saturday is a marvel of efficiency in that line, showing in every detail just what happens on the gridiron and how it happens. By the flashing of different electric lights on the board, the spectators are informed instantly of the play that is being put into execution, who is carrying the ball, how many yards are gained or lost, what the score is, and all other things explaining the situation.
Those who go to the Gymnasium Saturday afternoon will see the Nebraska game realistically enacted before their eyes on the score-board, which will be in charge of an expert. During the afternoon scores from other games will be reported. There will be plenty of "pep," music, and cheering, and Jayhawker loyalty will be at its highest pitch. Between halves there will be four fast rounds of boxing.
In spite of the fact that the Grid-Graph cost $1250, the price is low, and every cent of the proceeds will be used for the various Hill activities which we will all enjoy.
