MIGHTY HUSKERS WIN
Kansas Fought Hard But Could Not Stop Terrible Onslaught of Invaders
NUMBER 47
They came, they saw and they conquered. Stiehm's squad of twenty-five came; they saw Olecott's offering; and they conquered the Jayhawk and the Valley pennant for the fifth consecutive time. It's true it cost them a little effort but it was not much effective resistance that Kansas could offer against one of the strongest teams in the United States.
If the Huskers were overconfident they did not show it on the field. And they have a right to be overconfident. The last time the Minnesota Gophers won in 1912 when the Minnesota Gophers won a game by a one point margin.
Line crowd was large. Coming from all a' points in Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska ten thousand persons filled McCook. Special trains and regular trains brought throngs to Lawrence, while roads in each direction were alive with autos all morning. By two o'clock this sweepening crowd surged to McCook Field and hundreds of cars were "turned out to pasture" on the golf links while their owners witnessed the big battle.
A Game Worth Seeing
Although the game was one sided, the crowd thought it was well paid for its visit to McCook Field, for it had seen one of the best football machines in action that had ever invaded the Jayhawk territory. It had seen a strong Kobe 10 team, used steel machine and in doing so put up one of the stubborn fights ever offered in the face of such odds.
Alumni Welcomed
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 15. 1915
Homecoming celebrations were given to alumni, smokers and banquets were provided and, in fact, every student in the University took it upon himself to see that every visitor received a royal welcome Open house is in order at every student's room as well as at the former. Fraternity parties banquets caused the houses to be thronged with guests and the streets in front of the houses to be lined with autos.
A Team of Hard Players
It was a privilege to see the game. It would have been a greater privilege to see Kansas defeat such a machine as the Nebraska Stiemba but, but rather than his team's jamboree. With a Rutherford and a Chamberlain and a Corey fighting on one team there is little the other team can do, especially when the other side has no such支架 sufficient on an ordinary team but with that combination something must happen.
Kansas fought hard. 'The only play left for her was defensive since the Cornhuskers kept the ball most of the time. Captain James and Andre Gornet were one of the moment until they were unable to fight any longer. Both men were taken from the battle injured, probably for the rest of the season. Rebet met the same fate while charging to get the man with the ball, and Heath played well at the other end. His knee will probably keeph out of the remaining game. Keeling's old injury was remission against Moser and the Husker line plunges he was replaced by Meyn.
Nebraska is not a one man or a three man team. She had eleven men playing football every minute of the game in the line up did not subtract from the prowess of the Huskers. Cook, Gardiner, Shields, Abbott and Rose shine with line ups. When a lineup must be mentioned when picking out the good players.
Lindsey, playing quarter for Kansas proved to be the mainstay of his team. He was in the game the whole sixty minutes and打铁ed in every play and continued to do so when Wood replaced him at quartar and he took Holt's half position. Forward passes were true to the attempted but with little success. It was just a plain case of being overpowered.
K. U. Got y Wrong.
Kansas got off on her wrong foot when Nielsen picked up a rolling kickoff near the goal line and was downed on the Kansas one yard line for the first down of the game. This forced Lindsey to punt from behind his goal. A Cornhusker attempted to block the punt but none caught off side and Kansas gained five yards by the end of the game. Another punt was necessary, and under excitement Lindsey only punted to Caley on the thirty yard line.
Then Nebraska started in to show her wares. Three yards by Rutherford through the line, then two yards
through left tack' paved the way for Corey's twelve yard gain on a tackle swing through right tacke for first down. Chamberlin went around the end for four yards and with three followers he went for With three to go for a first down and five yards to go for a touchdown the Cornhuskers were unable to get through the Kansas stone wall and lost the ball on downs. Lindsey punted out of danger and in three downs passed the ball down from Brinkman men and on the fourth a long forward pass failed and Kansas took the ball.
Reber was downed behind the line and on the next play Lindsey punted to the Nebraska 35-yard line where Caley was downed in his tracks. Three plays through the line scored yards and first down. Chamberlain then got off on one of his famous end runs for thirty yards to the Kansas 25-yard line. Two plays then netted five yards but a foul by James Lindsey punted to the 40-yard line to Caley who was downed by three Kansans. An end run failed and a pass was blocked eight yards behind the线. Nebraska had 17 yards to go and only two downs in the game, a forward pass counted 28 yards.
A 28-Yard Pass
An end run them put on them on the eight yard line. With four downs to make a touchdown Nebraska could only make six yards and lost the ball. Lindsey then saved his team by punting to the Nebraska 49-yard line. Two plays ended the quarter on the Kansas 39-yard line.
Chamberlain Goes Over
The second quarter opened with twenty-yard pass to Chamberlain who shook off all tacklers until h crossed the Jayhawker goal. Mose kicked goal. On the kick-off following this Gillespie kicked only te yards into Moses arms on the first play and scored a ball on Kansas 25 yard line wher Nebraska fumbled on the next pla and Lindsey recovered. Reber an Holt then made eleven yards for firs downs. Lindsey and Gillespie los four yards but Holt wont it back around left end. On the Lindsay kick to Nebraska's 35 center Cook who returned to th center of the field.
A March to The Goal
A nine yard and a two yard gain through the line added first down to the increasing list. Two end run failed to gain then a thirty yard pass was tried by Cook. Lindsey caught and returned it ten yards Gillespie lost three yards. Nielsen gained a yard before Lindsey punted 38 yards to Cook who returned it 18. An eight yard gain caused a fumble but a Husker recovered the owl and a first down on the next successive downs put the ball on the Kansas 3 yard line for a fourth down. Gardiner then took around right end for the touchdown and Moser kicked goal.
In the remaining few minutes of play in this quarter Cook won the crowd's appause by leaping into the air at breakneck speed to pull down a long pass which Lindsey had attempted. The ball landed on the 89-yard line and the half ended as Nebraska made another first down.
Kansas Tries Passing
Early in the second half Kansas recovered a Husker fumble in midfield and started some passes. Lindsey to Gillespie netted ten yards and another to Holt gained two yards. But Garson touched the passing line and intercepted the next one on the Nebraska 15-yard line. A puntrolled to Kansas 28 yard line and a chance to score was past. Exchange of punts and a few plays gave Chamberlain the ball of his yard line, with a wide end which netted a touchdown. Nebraska's interference could not be touched. A try for goal failed.
Nebraska then rushed the ball on a series of plays straight down the field to a touchdown. Nothing could stop the charging backfield headed by Rutherford. The next quarter started off the same way and in midfield Rutherford had plotted the ball behind the posts for the final touchdown.
Kansas recovered a fumbled punt on Nebraska's 30 yard line but lost the ball on downs. It brought on dempsky. One of these if it had been held would have meant a touchdown as it was past the whole Cornhuser team. After a pout, out Lindsey attempted a drop kick but it went up. Cornhuser returned it thirty-five yards. Cook

When he blood runs warm beneath the furts and heavy coats, it is a long, long ways to Belgium. But a pinched, white, burning-eyed kiddie trampling the frosted stones of Massachusetts street without shoes would bring Belgium nearer.
The Spirit of Calvary
In Belgium, where the iron heel grinds in the dusts of ruined homes, women and children shiver in the threadbare rags of yester-year, and search for bits of fuel to make a little warmth. For Belgium, the country which knew the whole meaning of our "Spirit of 76," is dependent upon the charity of the world. And there is little charity in the world today outside the United States.
little charity in the war. Perhaps there is not much here. But we shall see. Last year a committee of the most prominent Americans promoted a Christmas fund and sent a Christmas ship to Belgium bearing cheer and aid to the countless people whose souls were wrenched to the breaking point.
This year the committee is going to send another ship and it has made even better arrangements for handling and distributing its offering. The Dol'ar Christmas Fund for destitute Belgians will provide food and shoes for one hundred thousand folks who had the courage to stand for the right, though it meant a living hell.
Register Geo. O. Foster is receiving contributions to the Dollar Christmas fund here on Mount Oread where the blood runs warm and young folks laugh, but where—it is very far to Belgium?
Women's Pan-Hellenic Decides Informal Calls Too Hard on Study Period
FRATS TO CALL NO MORE ALPHA XI GIVES CHARTER
At the Women's Pan-Hellenic meeting which was held last week at the Kappa house, it was passed that there should be no more calling of the fraternities from seven until eight on week nights. Heretofore it has been counted that women need to call so that the freshmen could get acquainted. This has proven to be rather hard on all of the students because it was hard to settle down to studying afterwards. The rule passed by Pan-Hellenic will help ensure that Thanksgiving holidays because some of the sororities had dates in advance. No sorority though, can make any more dates.

The program will begin promptly at 8:15, and the doors will be closed during the occurrence of all numbers on the program.
A rather unique system will be employed in debating trots at the University of Colorado this year. He will speak on the side of the question for debate he is to speak on until he is on the platform. He will be graded on his ability as an extemporeous speaker and on his knowledge of the subject.
The Board of Administration met informally at the Chancellor's office Saturday morning. It was practically decided that the excessive cost would prevent the transportation of the Kanas building at the Exposition to Mount Oread. The Board will meet again next Saturday.

CO-OP STORE IN SIGHT
Book Exchange May Be Stepping Stone To Selling At Little Coin Cost
If the book exchange in *Fraser Hall*, which is to be installed during the second semester, proves to be a success, the establishment of a Cooperative Store will double follow, according to Neal Ireland, chairman of the committee on the Coop Movement for the University of Kansas.
When asked about the progress which was being made in this direction he said: "We expect to have a book exchange in Fraser by the second son, sister, to which all students may go who wish to exchange old or used books are the only kind that will be handled and a 10 per cent commission will be charged. The store will be under student management and will be primarily for the benefit of all K. U. students. If this idea is well supported we shall not store it. We have not decided where it will be located but at the start the business will be carried on in Fraser."
Mr. Ireland is in favor of adopting the plan used in many other leading Universities throughout the country, that of issuing and selling shares for about $2.00 a share and declaring a dividend at the end of the year to all stockholders. Memorandum requests that stores not only purchase their sup-port, but will obtain a rebate at the end of each year.
The University of Wisconsin has been very successful in this plan; it now has a membership of no less than 12,000, with nearly half that number active members. The share and dividend funds from the Island Stanford and Missouri also allow commercial discounts at their co-operative stores.
The Committee has in mind two plans which it is intending to have the students vote upon. They are: that of selling stock among the students and declaring dividends on the stock at the end of each school' year, and that of selling participating tickets which will give the students the privilege of buying books and supplies from the Co-op Store at cost.
K. U. JOURNALIST COVER

This trip was the first of a number of practical trips which the students in this class will be taken on during the year.
A little discomfort and more amusement was the result of a prank on the part of the water supply in the gymnasium one day last week. As we entered the condition of the shower baths, they found that the cold water and hot water pipes united in furnishing a fine supply of scalding water and turned it on until we ferred to was on the part of the lookers on, not the bathers.

Condition Still Dangerous
Leader, Prof. A. C. Terrill.
Subjects:
Tuesday, "What is Christianity?" Wednesday, "The Haystack Prayer Meeting."
Thursday, "The Second Mile." "Friday, "The Will' of God."
"Life is made up of crises," said Prof. A. C. Terrill this morning. "Whether we win or lose depends upon the way in which we meet these crises. God puts thoughts in men; in this way He answers our prayers. When we take God as our Father we may think there is no use in asking Him for things that we need, for if we need them, we will receive them. If we need them, we would never need to ask any one for that which we need. Christ met every one of His great crises with prayer; we as Christians should pray. If the Son of God needed to pray, how much more do we need to?"
