HUSKERS EXPECT TO BEAT KANSAS
Need Tomorrow's Game to Win Seventh Successive Valley
Title
NO INJURED PLAYERS
Special to the Kansan:
Rest Last Week Put Northern Team in Good Condition— Dope Favors Huskers
Special to the Kansan:
Lincoln, N.C., Dec. 19, 16-Under-
ward, the University of Kansas
during the last six years, the University
of Nebraska football team will go to
saturday's game fully prepared to
clip the Jayhawk's wings. To do so
will be the Missouri Valley Championship
for the seventh successive year.
Nebraska is without a single injured man on her team. Luckily for her championship aspirations, the schedule provided for an open date on the Saturday before the Kansas game, and the Cornhusher coaches have taken advantage of the layoff to coddle each injured Nebraskan along with the players, round himself into his best form. Victory over K. U. is absolutely necessary if Nebraska is to have a clear title to the coveted championship.
Like the Jayhawkers, the Cornhuskers of 1916 have been slow to strike their gait. Although Nebraska has won all of her games, the team suffered a mid-season slump after its long journey to Portland, Oregon, to play the Oregon Aggies, and victory over the Iowa Cyclones from Ames three points. The Ames victory put the Cornhuskers on the road to another valley championship and then came Kansas, after a discouraging start, to defy the Nebraskas and to file a bid for victory.
Nebraska scouts have warned their men of the Kansas strength, and football followers here look for a battle royal on Nebraska Field Saturday. They fear the results of Woodward's will be instructed to keep a wary eye on the returned soldier's toe. The cold statistics for that part of the season which has passed give Nebraska the edge on the "dope"—yet Kansas years ago formed the habit of fighting to the last ditch in her efforts to humble the Huskers, and Nearest Strike was to a furious fray when the Ja Hawkwer warriors stride on the field Saturday.

Where Is Heaven?
I sent my soul through the invisible.
Some letter of that after-life to
And by and by my soul returned to me
And answered; I myself am Heaven
and Hell.
These words of the Persian Philosopher, Omar Khayyam, give a better picture of our modern thought of Heaven than does the old language. Olden streets and crowns and harps, Heaven is not a place; it is a condition of mind and heart. The subject of the evening sermon is "Where Is Heaven?" Unitarian Church—Adv.

DISTANCE MEN GO TO VALLEY MEET
Ames Team Feared In Annua Meet on Ames Course— Dope Favors Kansas
The K. U, cross country squad left this morning at 6:45 for the Missouri Valley Conference meet at Ames. Every man on the team felt that Kansas was due to win this meet for the first time in two years. Welsh, the only man that is not in the best condition, is handepeased by Dillon, Dillon, Welsh, Rockey, Groene and Rinker are entered in the meet.
This is the first trip of the Kansas team this fall. If a good showing is made tomorrow, the team will be endowed with a scholarship at Purdue, November 25. No record-breaking time is expected tomorrow because the course at Amas is slower than the one in Lawrence and the cold weather is expected to cut down the course.
Ames has several men of known ability and they easily won from Iowa last Saturday. It is acknowledged that K. U. will have to beat Ames to win the meet, as the Kansas Aggies and Missouri are not expected to do much in the run. Merriam, the Ames coach, expects Kasas to win.
Rodkey has won first place in the valley meet for two years but his running mates have not kept up with him. However, the team which runs Saturday, has three men who average around the 27 minute mark. 27:24 is the best time that has been made by the team in any meet this fall.
The results of the meet will be announced in Fraser chapel, with the Kerr family.

Kansas gains, according to report,
The team will endear to make little
headway by straight football. Nebraska's line is too heavy, and too well trained to permit of that. The Cornhuskers, the third division stiff formation—the play that has made the Nebraska school famous throughout the world of football, and the thing that has won her more games than any other tactics.

Kansas and Nebraska have been playing football in the Missouri Valley for nearly a quarter of a century. During that time, the annual Jayhawk-Husker clash has been a classic. When football made its bow in Kansas, it was the age, Kansas dipped into the game a full year in advance of the Cornhusker school. Relations were established in 1892 and for two seasons the Jayhawkers experienced little trouble in taking Nebraska's measure. The battle for supremacy was a see-saw with the Benton County formation of the Booth, regime in 1900 saw the Huskers drub the Jayhawks for four successive seasons.
A break in relations caused a suspension of the annual combat in '04 and '05, but the spirit of rivalry, was a magnet which proved irresistible and the yearly conflict was resumed in '06. Kansas was the winner that year, but Nebraska turned the tables in '07. Then came two years of triumph for Nebraska over the installation of a football system at Nebraska which has made the Cornhuskers one of the famous eleven of the Middle West.
KANSAS HAS ONLY EIGHT VICTORIES
The fact that Nebraska has beaten K. U. fourteen times out of the twenty-two games played by the two schools, and that Kansas has won but eight, makes victory over the Cornhushner tomorrow doubly desirable. The Jayhawk must avenge himself for the long string of Husker victories.
Twenty-Two Games With Nebraska Gives K. U. Percentage of .363
Beginning in 1910 and ending in 1915, the Huskers have won every game on their home field, compiling six successive conference championships. Once, in 1911, they were held to a tie by the Iowa Cyclones in a combat staged on the Ames garrison, but the Huskers made several agreements with the Huskers were victorious, generally by decisive scores. During this climb to a niche in the hall of football fame the Huskers have been undefeated since the campaign of 1912.

TWENTY-FOUR ROOTERS TO
HUSKERLAND BY MOTOR
General Funston's transporting of soldiers from San Antonio to Eagle Pass in motor trucks has nothing on Cheerleader Gedney, who hired two mammoth downtown conveyors last week. The horses and Jayhawker roots to Huskyland via the gasoline route. The parties left at 1 o'clock this morning and expect to cover the distance between Lawrence and Lincoln, 280 miles in 16 hours; at 4 o'clock this afternoon, 5 this evening. Five dollars winted the fare for the trip by Promoter Gedney.
DANCE TO AID KANSAS TEAM
Student Council Gives Party Friday to Raise Money for Training Table
The students of the University are to be given an opportunity to aid the football team materially Friday, November 24 by attending an authorized Varsity dance given by the Men's Student Council. The proceeds of the dance will go to the football team to be applied on the training table in spring during the remainder of the season and to care for part of the debt incurred since the table was started in mid-season.
The dance will be a regular Varsity dance. Students will get double value for their money, in that they have the opportunity to reportaring the team at the same time.
The rules under which the teams of the Missouri Valley work and train do not allow the athletic association to provide a training table for the team. Owing to the fact that a large number of the men have to pay for board while in Lawrence, a club football team is called to football men. The club is termed a training team and is maintained at the Oread Café. The regular price of board in Lawrence is paid by the members of the team.
Because of the special food prepared for the players the money received has proved inadequate. The Student Council voted at its last meeting to establish a systematic support of such a table by the students of the University.
In other years the fraternities have been asked to make up the deficit because they were organized and could do so. With the Student Council backing this plan all students will have this opportunity.

CONDITIONS WORSE THAN PRINTED "You have read of the atrocities inflicted upon the Armenians by the Turks, but what I saw was a hundred times worse than anything that has been printed. I saw three missionary teachers in the college which I attended, one a graduate of Yale, an undergraduate of our faculty of University of Wisconsin, tortured because of their belief in Christianity. Their finger nails and toe nails were pulled out, the hairs of their heads were pulled out one by one, and they were hung up by their feet.
WERE SOLD AS SLAVES
"Men and boys have been killed,
for twenty-five or thirty cents apiece;
to the Turks. Girls in
the great throng taken into Arabia
to starve, have been sold to Arabs
for twenty-five or thirty cents apiece.
Those who were killed were not the
infortunate ones."
Mr. Boyajian told of his mother and sister, of whom he has not heard for more than two years. The lot of his family is probably that of many others, he said. Homes have been broken up, and no member of the home knows where the others are, or even if they are living.
OUTLINES PLAN OF CAMPAION Following Mr. Boyajian's talk, Prof H. P. Cady, chairman of the Activism Council (outside the plan which will be followed in securing pledges from University students.
A committee from each class will
visit every member of that class, and all will be asked to contribute. This will be the only war relief fund raised at the University this year, Professor Cady declared, and every cent pledged will be utilized in relieving the suffering of soldiers on the campaign for securing money is being borne by the American Committee for Armenian and Syrian Relief, and every cent contributed will be sent directly to Turkey or Arabia, and all will be intended by United States consuls, who will insure its serving the purpose for which it is intended.
