MIGHTY HUSKERS WIN
Kansas Fought Hard But Could Not Stop Terrible Onslaught of Invaders
They came, they saw and they conquered. Stiehm's squad of twenty-five came; they saw Olcott's offering, and they could outlast the pregnant for the fifth consecutive time. It's true it cost them a little effort but it was not much effective resistance that Kansas could overcome in 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 northern Minnesota Gopher won a game when the Minnesota Gopher won a game by a one point margin.
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 Kansas team, which had been on the machine and in doing so put up one of the stubbornest fights ever offered in the face of such odds.
The crowd was large. Coming from all 4 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 morning, b
Alumui Welcomed
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 was in order at every student's room *a*<sup>4</sup> well at the funeral. Fraternity parties these causes caused the houses to be thronged with guests and the streets in front of the houses to be lined with autos.
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 Stiefel roller but that seems to be the case with the突击手. 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 stakes. Anyone who suffers from an ordinary team but with that combination something must happen.
A Team of Hard Players
Nebraska is not a one man or a three man team. She had eleven men playing football every minute of the game. Any substitution in the line-up did not subtract from the prowess of the Huskers. Cook, Gardiner, Shields, Abbott and Reese shine among the stars and in fact the whole line-up must be mentioned when picking out the good players.
Kansas fought hard. The only play left for her was defensive since the Cornhuskers kept the ball most of the time. Captain James and Andy Grugner lagged away all the time until they were unable to fight any longer. Both men were taken from the battle injured, probably for the rest of the season. Reber met the same fate while chasing him off, effort 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 a blow against Moser and the Husker line plunges he was replaced by Meyn.
Lindsey, playing quarter for Kansas proved to be the mainstay of his team. He was in the game the whole sixty minutes and fighting every play and continued in every play and continued to do so when Wood replaced him at quartar and he took Holt's half position. Forward passes were tried and missed, but with little success. It was just a plain case of being overpowered.
K. U. Got v Wrong.
Kansas got off on he 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 was caught side and Kansas gained yard by another punt. Another punt was necessary, and under excitement Lindsey only punted to Caley on the thirty yard line.
Then Nebraska started in to show
that they could force the bears
forth through the line, then two zeros
through left tack' paved the way for Corvale's twelve yard gain on a tackle swing through right tackle for first down. Chamberlain went around the end for four yards and Rutherford followed with two yards 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 yards by chinchown's men and on the fourth aong forward pass failed and Kansas ook the ball.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, MONDAY AFTERNOON, NOVEMBER 15, 1915.
A 28-Yard Pass
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 knocked the yards and first down, Chamberain 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 recovered by James and 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 line. Lindsey hustled to it only two dimes to do it in but a forward passed counted 28 yards.
Chamberlain Goes 09-12
The second quarter wrapped with a twotime lead to Chamberlain who shook off all tacklers until he crossed the Jayhawker goal. Moser kicked goal. On the kick-off following this Gillespie kicked only ten yards to Mosers arms on the fifty yard line in Kansas and on Kansas 25-yard line where Nebraska fumbled on the next play and Lindsey recovered. Reber and Holt then made eleven yards for first downs. Lindsey and Gillespie lost four yards but Holt won. On the fourth down Lindsey punted to Nebraska's 35-yard line to Cook who returned to the center of the field.
Chamberlain Goes Over
An end run then put 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 pouncing to the Nebraska 49-yard line. Two plays ended the quarter on the Kansas 39-yard line.
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 runs 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 puntered 38 yards to Cook who returned 18. An eight yard gain caused Tumble but a Husker recovered the oval and first down on the next pile. Five successive dumps put the ball on the Kansas 3 yard line for a fourth down. Gardiner then took it 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 that would have been thrown. But the Nebraska quarter was downed on the 88-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 eight yards. But Gardiner killed him. Nebraska征服了 next one on the Nebraska 15-yard line. A punt rolled to Kansas 28 yard line and a chance to score was past. Exchange of punts and a few plays gave Chamberlain the ball on Kansas 28 yard线 when he made 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 pass, and the new ball in Rutherford had planted 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 in two attempts. One of these if it had been held would have meant a touchdown as it was past the whole Cornhusser team. After a punt, out Lindsey attempted a drop kick but missed. The ball returned it thirty-five yards. Cook
Kansas showed good fight at the finish of the game and after see-sawing back and forth during the rest of the half. The battle was declared over after a 60-yard boot by Lindsey. The lineup and summary:
Couldn't Stop Drive
Nebraska 39 Kansas 0.
L.E.—Chamberlin Reber
LT.T.—Corey (C.) James
LG.G.—Shields Groft

When he blood runs warm beneath the furs and heavy coats, it is a long, long ways to Belgium. But a pinched, white, burning-eyed kiddle tranping 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 yesteryear, 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.
tittle charm in the room. 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 Dollar 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 Gee, O. Foster is receiving contributions to the Dollar Christmas fund here on Mount Orend where the blood runs warm and young folks laugh, but where—it is very far to Belgium?

CO-OP STORE IN SIGHT
Book Exchange May Be Stepping Stone To Selling At Little Over 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 Co-operative Store will doublestill follow, according to Neal Ireland, chairman of the committee on the Co-Op 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 semester, to which all students may go with each other old land books. 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 receive a regular office. We have not decided what it will be located but at the start the business will be carried on in Fraser."
Mr. Ire'and is in favor of adopting
PLAN SEMI-CENTENNIAL
Steps to Further Celebration Depend on Action of Chancellor and Faculty
Plans for a semi-centennial celebration to be held here next fall were discussed by the visiting alumni Saturday and the co-operation of the association pledged to the faculty, including all students, at the celebration depends upon the action of the Chancellor and the University Senate.
A special committee composed of M. E. Pearson, Kansas City, Kan., Robert Blair, Topke, and Mrs. T. H. Dorn, Topke, was appointed by the Board of Visitors last year and to consider questions raised in the report. The Board of Alumni Directors appointed Mr. Topke as the vacancy on the Board of Alumni Visitors, caused by the resignation of Mrs. T. H. Chalky.
The association bears the expense of a Board of Visitors who spend at least five days at the University each year and attend conferences, situation and make on annual report to the alumni and the people of the state. Members of the board must be residents of Kansas. On the board at present are: Charles F. Scott, '81; Iola; James V. Humphrey, '86; Juncie Sackett, '90; Scott Sockey, '90; Scott Hopkins, '81; Topeka; Mrs L. H. Perkins; Lawrence; C. L. Davidson. '77-81. Wichita.
At the head of the association is the Board of Directors composed of ten members, which is itself a great elephant in the face. The board includes Sheffield Ingalls.
BOTH COACHES CONFIDENT
Olcott and Stiehm Each Predicts His Team Will Win Missouri Valley Championship
"I think we will win the game all right," said Coach Olcott this morning. "Our team is more powerfu' man for man, than the Nebraskans and we can give them the hardest battle they have faced in years. There is no need to worry that we cannot beaten though they have not been beaten for so long that they don't know what it is to get the small end of a score.
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
"Our men are all in good shape and we will fight every one of the sixty minutes of the game. We are prepared to fight."
COACH HERMAN OLCOTT
COACH STIEHM
"In my judgment, the game will be very close, but Nebraska ought to win," was Coach Jumbo Stiehm's dictum this morning and was, in a way, his answer. He pointed out that Oclott to the effect that the Cornhoppers are human and can be beat. "Kansas has a much stronger team than last year, and we are expecting a great deal resilient proposition than we met in Lincoln a year."
"Oklahoma's victory over Kansas does not lower the Jayhawker in my estimation and Nebraska is anticipator of the games of the season this afternoon."
