Kansas rivalry continues
Pranks and 'peace pact' part of Sunflower Classic by David Garfield
12 Reflections Advertising supplement October 26,1990
As Kansas begins the second century of Jayhawk football in 1990, history is on its side when KU matches up against Kansas State for the Homecoming game tomorrow. Kansas has a 7-2 record versus the Wildcats on Homecoming, including four shutouts — three of which Kansas won 34-0
One of the most memorable Kansas—K-State games was played on Homecoming in 1967. With Kansas trailing by two points, Bill Bell kicked a 30-yard field goal with 6 minutes remaining to give KU a 17-16 victory. A record crowd of 24,435 watched the traditional rivalry at Memorial Stadium.
The annual Sunflower Classic places a deeply rooted rivalry between the teams and their fans. Kansas leads the series 59-25, with 37 percent of its wins being rushing. Florida was third in roping and pranks, which caused the two universities to sign a "peace pact" in 1911.
The "peace pact" was designed to promote cooperation and eliminate vandalism during the war. He was appointed in 1947 after continuing branks by students. A favorite brank by K State was the annual painting of "Uclem Jimmy" Green, the statue in front of what is now Lippincott

Whenever KU and K-State students
caught one another damaging property, they would frequently shave the culprits' heads. Not to be outdone by their rivals, KU students would often paint the steps of K-State's buildings crimson and blue. But the student was caught when they shot the official Wildcat massacr
KU students would drive to the Manhattan City Zoo and take the mascot and bring the Wildcat back to Lawrence in a cage. The team, led by K-State forced them to release the mascot.
"It is high time some definite action was taken," said Henry Werner, then KUDE of student affairs. "Students in the schools must learn to at least act like grown-ups. If you don't continue, the situation will soon amount to nothing less than guerrilla warfare."
The revised 1947 "peace pact" called for the expulsion of any student "engaging in wilful violence concerning the KU-K State rivalry."
"Students in the schools must learn to at least act like grown-ups.If present conditions continue,the situation will soon amount to nothing less than guerrilla warfare."
Except for some occasional rioting between the two schools, the guerrilla
