STUBBS MAKES SCORE
Freshman Races Sixty Yards for Touchdown Against Varsity
SHOULD DEFEAT AMES
Practice Last Night Showed Efficient Interference
Roscoe Stubbs, heavyweight son of the ex-governor, was the bright and shining star of last night's football practice. Roscoe, you will perhaps remember, is the portly young gentleman who was made to run the grant-let at the school. You're the rooters intended to throw him up in a blanket—but they couldn't find one strong enough. So they paddled him instead.
Roscee is quite a bulky young fellow. He has weight—and plenty of speed to get up momentum. That's how it happened that he was able to intercept a forward pass last night and race through the Varsity sixty yards for a touchdown. Upon it, it was a fast speed that Nobody was afraid of Roscee, or anything like that. They just couldn't flag him.
Scrimgain with the freshmen lasted an hour, and every moment of it was overloaded with punch, tobasco, ginger, vim, and spice. "Overloaded" is right! It flooded the field, saturated the place in the arena on the practice court. The practice was on the class" (to quote one of the fans), and even Coach Olcott was pleased with the men's work. He is said to have remarked that if the team played "that way" we had mighty good chance to win. And that's going some for Coach Olcott who doesn't like to make prophecies.
PRACTICE SHOWS SPIRIT
Todd, Rublic, Casey, and Fast showed up especially well in the scrimage last night. Snappy massaging, quick starts when he the ball misses thrust into play, efficient inter-player kicking were marked characteristics of their work. Just at present, the Kansas backfield seems to have it all over the line for perfection of detail and extent of activity. The line waits for the backfield to come in and push 'em forward.
In injuries to several men on the Varsity still keep a number of "will be" stars out of the backfield. Clay Fiske, of Boston marvel, is exerted to report tonight for the first time in a week. His side has been giving him considerable trouble. Russel, Laslett, and Nettles, a freshman, all have boots which are more or less vulnerable spots for the opposition during scrimage.
OFF-SIDE PLAYS
With vague rumors of many ineligible and the absence of six or seven of the Varsity men last night, football fans are beginning to wonder just what is going on. It is also stated that Captain Lindsay will not be out for several nights. In the dressing sheds more talk of quizzes and tech reports is heard than of the next game. Just what the projections are no one seems to believe. That Ames has a team this year better by far than those in the last few years. There seem to be no doubt. They need backfield. Kansas cannot afford to have any men left behind on account of eligibility—perhaps that is why Manager Hamilton looks so worried.
The freshmen slipped away from the Varsity men again. Stubbs, playing tackle, intercepted for the field at touchdown. But then the Varsity

men took the ball and drove through the line time and time again.
Jack Frost will be in the scrimmage tomorrow night. Frost has been out for a week and is round-ish in condition and will be in shape for the Ames game.
Speed Heath worked out last night. Although the knee is still very weak and has the habit of caving unexpectedly, Speed figures on being in condition by Saturday.
The Varsity men did some excellent blocking last night which looks mighty good to the sideliners. Humpty Wilson rolled the backfield freshmen time and again last night. Woody at guard also took great pleasure laying in the ball, which the coaches have been trying to impress on the Kansas men for the last few years. There's hoping it comes at last.
Stem Foster, the nervy Varsity quarterback, was nearly laid out in the scrimmage last night. Running from behind the goal line, Foster plunged into several husky freshmen and, in the fracas, was kicked on the temple. He soon recovered and was able to continue practice.
The "Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk" yell which has made Kansas famous was heard for the first time on Illinois Field Saturday, and a curious throng of Illini listened twice. The crowd followed the gridron. And a better spirit has seldom existed between two crowds of rooters than was evidenced during the game. The K. U. section stood up for "Illinois Loyalty," and said that they would "Hall to Thee, Our Alma Mater," was sung by the Jahawk-ers—Daily Illini.
Cross Country Squad Making Good Time
SIX MEN WORK OUT DAILY
Prospects for a winning cross country team appeared to be brighter last night than at any other time this year. With at least six men doing the five mile course around the 20 minute mark and another distance team at KL, to be getting into shape to clean up the Valley this fall.
Captain Statler, Rodkey, Howland, Groene, Sweeney, Dillon, and Brown are the men who have done the most considerable work. Who was a star on the freshman team last fall, has not been uniformly as yet this year. Washington and Couchman are other possibilities, but Couchman may not be eligible.
Groene has a badly blistered foot, which has been a great handicap him the past week. Rodkey is rounding into his old time form. All of the men have been troubled by the road for five miles. Brown did five miles around 32 minutes last night the first time he has run that distance this fall.

Potty May Coach Froeh
Potsy Clark will probably make his debut at a K. U. basketball coach next week. "I freaked out of basket tossing." Coach Hamilton stated this morning that freshman basketball practice would start next week as soon as the Vanstone were going to cogs in the University of Illinois smooth-working basketball machine last year.
Just jot that down and remember it.
