STUDENTS DEMAND A FOOTBALL TEAM
Columbia University Rooters Claim Athletics Injured by Abolishment of Football
John Werner, a freshman in College, returned to his home in Beattie, Kansas this week, on account of the illness of his father.
Clifford Hollebaugh who has been visiting at the Phi Gam house, returned to his home in Kansas City, Mo., yesterday.
The football bogey is up again at Columbia College, the annual demand for the re-establishment of the game being issued by the Spectator. The poor material reporting for other sports has been laid to the fact that big men are not attracted to the College through the absence of football. "Without football big men cannot be expected to come to Columbia," says the Spectator, "and it is these men who are needed to support every form of athletics." Coaches, captains, and managers may make their complaints and issue their calls for big men year in and year out, but it will only be so much energy wasted. The fact is, the big men are not here."
It has been discovered that after football was abolished the average weight of Columbia's varsity crews increased, and the crews have been heavier than in the period when football was played, until last spring, when the average slightly fell.

POOR SHOWING BY CORNHUSKERS
After Doane Recovered From
Fright Held Stiehm's Team
to Standstill
Chas. L. Lochum.
Special to Daily Kansan:
Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 11.—The Cornhuskers won a poor victory over Doane College Saturday, 34 to 6, the collegiate eleven scoring on Nebraska and Oklahoma, and the third quarter holding the strong Cornhusker team to a standstill.
Unable to withstand the fighting attacks of the Cornhusker backs in the first few minutes of play, the Nebraska team reeled off three touchdowns before the Doane had recovered from their surprise.
Captain Frank scored the first touchdown and was followed shortly by Beck. The only redeeming feature of the game was a ninety-four yard run by Beck from the kickoff for a touchdown. Howard for the first time this year had a punt blocked on him.
The Nebraska team played close football throughout the game. They used very few plays that were not already known and were extremely careful of the forward pass and the more open plays.
Every one of the players came out of the game uninjured and with the exception of Purdy the entire Cornhusker team will bein the pink of condition to meet the Jayhawkers next Saturday. Purdy's injured knee is healing rapidly and it is hoped that he will be in the lineup.
Coach Stiehm promises several nights of secret practice this week in perfecting some plays for the benefit of the Jayhawkers but will go easy on the scrimimage so as to have him in the best of condition for the game. This will be the first game this year that the majority of men have been in good condition.
ENORMOUS CUT MADE IN FARE TO LINCOLN
Every Student Can Afford to Go; Round Trip Ticket $7.50.
Loyal Kansas Rooters, who wish to make the trip to the Cornhusher camp can do it on less money than ever before. Cheer Leader Dolde after much brain fatigue has convinced himself that the total expense of the trip, ticket to the game, train fare, burth, etc., will fall under the twelve dollar mark. This is the lowest inducement that has been ever offered for the northern trip.
Dr. V. W. McCarty and D. O Smith of Rosedale have been visiting at the Nu SigmaNu house.
At least two hundred rooters are expected to make the trip and rooters, team, band, freshmen and coaches will leave for the Nebraska camp on a special over the Union Pacific next Friday night at ten o'clock.
In preparation for the event a special rally will be called next Friday morning to give the lung artists a chance to practice in preparation for the trip. The particulars of this rally are not out yet but it is reported to be the best rally so far staged this year.
A special rate has been made for the trip and a round trip ticket can be secured for but $7.50. A special rate also has been made on this and the entire lower berth may be secured by returning a special train will leave Linecol Saturday night at some time convenient for the rooters.
Deutscher Verein Meets.
Der Deutscher Verein met yesterday afternoon in Blake hall. Dr Adolphine Ernst of the German department gave an interesting account of her journey through Hartz mountains of Germany. Her lecture was illustrated by the stereopticon which was operated by Prof. J. A. Campbell. Dr. Ernst has recently come to this country and is now instructor in German at the University.

COACHES FACING A BAD SITUATION
Hard Work is Watchword at Jayhawker Camp This Week
NO POSITIONS ARE CINCHED
Men Being Shifted From Place to Place on Team-New Plays Worked Out Last Night.
With four days to prepare for Nebraska, and not two weeks' time before the Missouri game, the situation which faces the Jayhawker coaches is one that would cause many a coach to give up all hope.
Your Business Solicited
Truly the state of affairs is one which can be solved only by hard work. Three men in the line seem to have their positions cinched. They are Helvorn at center, Weiline at guard and Captain Brownlee at end. The remaining positions must be assigned in a short interval and to whom they will go seems to be as large a question as ever.
Capital $100,000; Surplus and Profits, $100,000
In then in addition to the deficiency in the kicking that must be remedied, is the lack of fight which has been exhibited by the Mose-Frank warriors at times. True, the defense put up under the shadow of the Kansas goal posts has been of the A, and the Baltimore A, the pumice has usually been the case out in mid-field. The Jayhawks will fight for one down then leaf on the rest. Their tackling has been high and not of the old time fierceness.
If the Jayhawkers show the quality of fight which has been exhibited by Kansas in former years, the result of the next two games will upset some of the dope Cornhusker and Tiger sport writers are spreading broadcast. On the other hand if Kaisa displays no more interest in the contest than was shown at Topeka, the Jayhawk stands a good chance of losing the remaining important games.
Everybody Works at Jayhawk Camp Work is the watchword of the Kansas coaches and the varsity and freshmen engaged in a large, grilling scrimmage last night.
Watkins National Bank
Neither Dalton, Bishop, James or Burton was out, and the Kansas backs plowed through the freshmen for long gains. Parker, Miller and Coolidge started the scrimmage in the back field.
In the line Bramwell and Tudor worked at the guards and Coleman took Burnham's place at tackle. Milton and Price alternated at left end. Captain Brownlee, the most consistent man in the squad, was in every plav.
Most of the time was spent in teaching the men offensive plays. The coaches probably will spend most of the week drilling the team at this department.
