RALLY TONIGHT, 7:30, FRASER!
VARSITY IN PRACTICE WALLOPS "NEBRASKA"
Jayhawkers Score on "Cornhusker Eleven" Portrayed by Bond's Freshmen
TWAS NO LA-DE-DA WORKOUT
"Cousin Tom" Smith and Pat Crow well Assist Coaches in Putting Team Through Paces
"Nebraska delendah est," declared a top-line in last nigt's Kansan, and she was "delenda est" on McCook field yesterday afternoon. The hardest workout seen on the team this year was needed to the Varsity by the coaches in a final preparation for the season's big game.
809 A prismarium will be held this afternoon, that's true, but it will be light and easy, according to the present plans of the coaches. Tomorrow no strenuous work of any kind will be indulged in. It is doubtful if even light signals will be run. The probable form of the afternoon's entertainment will be a chalk talk, addressed to the players. Their heads, instead of their bodies, will be exercised for a while.
Not a Pink Tea Worker.
But there was nothing right about the work-out held on McCook field yesterday afternoon. The Varsity assembled in the "club house" at 2 o'clock on Sunday. They knew they had something coming to them and wanted to be ready for it. The coaches soon arrived, accompanied by Pat Crowell, and "Cousin Tom" Smith. The men dressed in their suits, troted out on the field, and the day's hard practice had begun.
The earlier part of the afternoon was spent in light work. Practice was held in kicking and returning punts. Russell and Weildlein took several shots at the goal posts via the drop and place kick route. Strothers practiced the kick off. Russell and Wilson punted.
The Coaches Delivered Addresses
The Coaches' they then lined up in the team's field, placed on the defensive. The two oaches stood in front of them watching each man's position critically, and at the same time firing rapid questions at them.
"Towle's going to try a run-pass. What would you do that pass to Howard just slide of left, keeling, Heinger Coach Frank And if it hit big object, or any other if Varsity men were the least bit slow in giving an answer they suffered a severe "tongue lashing" at the hands of both coaches.
"Here comes Rutherford through left tack, coming like thunder, too. What's your part in the Kansas defense against that formation, Strothers? And yours, Detwiler? And yours, Stuewe?" And woe befall the man who did not know, letter perfect, his part in that same play.
The coach looked around. It was time for scrimmage. Lounging on the sidelines, and in the south beachers were freshmen, and undergraduates, students who had come to watch the inter-hockey game had been attracted by sights much more interesting to them at this time of the year.
"What are you fellows doing here?" he shouted. "Can't you read that sign on the gate that says secret hotel? Oh, Shropp, put these men out."
And Lefty, with his "big stick",
came running. Neither Mosee or
Frank were taking any chances of
finding in the personnel of that group
of loungers "Bully" Halligan or
"Tow" Rutherford.
Three colored men far up in the grand stand, kept their places, unheeding the coaches' orders to "vacate." Frank caught sight of them.
"Letty, get the men out too. 'Maybe one of them's Ross.' Truly the Jayhawker athletic management was taking no chances of having
Jay Bond then led his freshman huskies in, and a lively scrimmage
The tyros were unable to make the progress against the Varsity eleven that they could earlier in the week. The sharp words and implicit instructions of the two coaches had had the expected effect, and time after time, Woods, the speedy tyro quad, would shove his men into the
line, only to have it hold like a stone wall.
Wading Through the Freshmen
The Varsity on the other hand found the freshman defense comparatively easy to penetrate. Time and again they romped through tackle and around end for good gains, and several times they ripped through center for "first and ten" even though all entire freshman were massed there awaiting their attack. Two touchdowns were scored on the yearlings in ten minutes.
After Bond's eleven had done its "bit" for the day, Mose put the Varsity back at the old routine work, signal practice, and more "per" than ever was evidenced by the men in playing the ball. All of the Jayhawkers' trick plays were opened up, and everyone executed perfectly before passed by ("Cousin Tom" Tom) and ("Father Tom") than did their share in helping the regular coaches train their eleven, and all in all the team, after last night's practice, looked the best it has for the last three weeks.
ADMIT ROOTERS ONLY TO ROCK-CHALK SEATS
Manager Will Issue Tickets
At Game To Students
With Voices
"Tickets admitting to the rooters' section are being printed this week and enough will be issued to provide each holder of a Student Enterprise ticket with one," said Manager Hamilton this afternoon. These will be handed out to students presenting their tickets, at the gates Saturday.
The purpose of issuing the tickets is to get only students in the ranks of the Thundering Thousand. The rooting will be an important factor in the success of Sunday and everything possible is being done to get the best results.
"The reserved seats are going fast, but we have the whole office force at work and we can take care of all the orders that come in," Hamilton said, pausing just a second from his work. "We will open up a new plot of seats today and are prepared to satisfy more than 8000 word of seats have been sold and the number bids fair to surpass the number at the Missouri game last year. The new seats opened up are a few on the north and south side and the whole west end."

FIRST 1914 SMOKER RAMPANT WITH "PEP"
Cigars, Eats, and Talks Feature Great Conclave of Senior Men.
'LETS GET THE CORNHUSKERS'
"Beat Nebraska" is Theme of Gath ering Campus Celebrities and Others--Fiery Speeches
If "pop" ever won a football game, then the Nebraska game is ours. For the pep really came last night. That senior smoker was the most wildly enthusiastic gathering of its kind ever seen in Lawrence. To say that it, with the rally which followed, was a howling success, would be putting it mildly. Everyone was there, and everything happened.
"Uncle Jimmy" Green declared that he never felt more prophetic, and he predicted a great victory next Saturday. Coach Mosse said his men could win if they threw the ball from the drift came, and so three hundred men crowded in Eagles' hall were rampant and overflowing with it.
The merchants and business men, under the gentle and persuasive eloquence of Ben Williams, vied with the Oread men and yelled until the walls trembled. Swede Wilson demonstrated beyond a shadow of doubt his world superiority as a performer on the banjo.
The Merchants Helped
The entertainment features were greatly enjoyed. J. L. Sullivan would have turned green, had he seen those two boxing exhibitions Dingman vs. LeMar, and Smith vs. Powler. The classy wrestling bout between Early and Ellen would have himself a few pointers. These contests were all declared draws b Allie Carroll, the capable and efficient referee.
Parson Advocates Memorial
But the speeches were the big part of the smoker. First came "Parson" Spotts who advocated in vibrant tones the leaving of a memorial the class of 1914. In "Russ" Clark explained the satisfaction of the present just why the 1914 Jayhawker was going to be better than any heretofore produced. Prof A Jerome Boynton declared with great enthusiasm that he liked apples, cigars, and pep as well as anybody, and that he felt young and frisky again.
H. A. Rice and Merle Thorpe entertained the audience with a few of the newest and choosest stories, and the laughs began to follow each other in rapid succession, like a bunch of Chinese firecrackers.
Coach Mosse declared that if the present spirit kept up, no power on earth could keep Kansas from winning that big game Saturday. Leonard Frank described the great waves of enthusiasm which swept over Mrs. Frank (Leon McCarty) and himself when they were awakened by the "bep" gang passing through the streets.
theyey.
Pat Crawford, captain of the famous 1008 ever-victorious team told of the great form which this year's team has developed, and in what way it did. *Nebraska*
"But there can't be too much of it," he said. "For it's going to take pep and lots of it to win that game."
Bert Kennedy, former K. U. coach, gave instances of what pep had done for other games, and predicted, with the growing spirit here, an almost certain victory by the Mosee-Frank machine.
Then "Uncle Jimmy" delivered his famous prophecy—exactly the same prophecy he delivered the last time we beat Nebraska. "These teams all poached him," he said. "They know we fight, and we'll show them Saturday how we really can fight, when the whole University is backing us."
After the smoker 700 men stormed through the student district. "Much thunder heard to the west-ard" will probably be the gist of Pat Aoomore's speech. Aoomore fondly made with boxes and barrels which were generously donated by the sleeping grocerystores owners closed the rally tonight.
