DETAIL REPORT OF OKLAHOMA GAME
TO BE GIVEN IN CHAPEL BY THE KANSAN.
NUMBER 24
No Admission Charge Will Be Made—Students Invited to Be Paper's Guests.
The Kansan has made arrangements to furnish a detailed account of the football game with Oklahoma next Saturday afternoon. The reports will be sent directly to The Kansan office by a staff reporter. The story will give every play in detail.
The report will be given to the students of the school without charge. It will open just before the game starts in Oklahoma City and will continue until it ends The bulletins will be thrown upon a screen in the chapel.
The detailed report of the game with Oklahoma will be the only report of out-of-town games received here this season. The paper is placed under considerable expense in obtaining the detailed story, and it invites all of the students to enjoy the advantages of the report.
Chancellor Avery Led Thanksgiving Service in Chapel.
The Kansas-Oklahoma game is advertised to start at 2:30 o'clock and the story of the game will be available for the students of the University in the chapel at about that time.
NEBRASKA CELEBRATED
Chancellor Avery presided at the chapel exercises, and in his speech voiced this sentiment:
Maddened with the joy of a victory over Kansas, the students of the University of Nebraska gave Monday over to a celebration of the event. Tuesday's issue of the Daily Nebraskan, printed on red paper, is filled with an account of the game and the celebration that took place in the University chapel Monday morning.
"It's a good thing for Kansas to get beaten real badly. It's a great thing for her soul to receive an honest drubbing.
"The defeat of Kansas by Nebraska has been a great inspiration to the athletic board. Some of you may not appreciate how they have planned and worked and thought concerning methods for defeating our strongest rival."
The members of the team were called on to make talks and tell how they did it. All responded except Warner, who could not be found. Evidently he preferred to do his playing exclusively on the gridiron.
When it came Shonka's turn to talk,a voice in the audience asked if the Kansans were game losers. "The -score certainly shows that they were," said the big Cornhusker.
The Daily Nebraskan says this good word for the Kansas line as it appeared in last Saturday's game:
"The Jayhawkers will have to be given credit for their line, and the remarkable defense it put up at critical stages of the battle. Four times, after the Cornhuskers had swept their way down the field and threatened to cross the line, the Kansas line held them for downs and saved themselves the ignominy of an even worse defeat."
Don't forget that Kelly will play at the Sophomore dance at F. A. A. hai', November 11. —Adv

Bennie Owen's Bunch Has Been Improving Since the Missouri Game—The Lineup.
Kennedy's Jayhawkers leave tonight for Oklahoma City to play the "Sooners" on Saturday. The Oklahoma team will be much stronger than when it played Missouri, as several of their best players were not in that game.
"We are looking for a close game," said Coach Kennedy today. "The Sooners always do play better ball on their own grounds."
The line-up will be changed somewhat. Johnson will play quarter, as Heil has been sick the last few days and it not thought best for him to play. "Buzz" Woodbury will take Johnson's place at left half, Ammons will be shifted to his old position at end and Wilhelm and Kabler will take care of full.
The lineup for the game will be ends, Ammons, Lynch; tackles, Smith, Cowells; guards, Baird, Davidson; center, Spear; quarter, Johnson; halfs, Woodbury brothers; full Wilhelm and Kaber. Heil, Ahrens, Powers, Davis Beazley, Parker, Price and Blades will also be taken on the trip. Don Hendrickson will accompany the team as trainer.
Plan Dramatic Programs.
At a meeting of the Thespian Dramatic club last week it was decided that in the future the meetings will be held the first Tuesday of each month. A regular dramatic program will be given at the meetings by members of the club elected for that purpose at the preceding meeting. It is also the intention of the club to have, whenever possible, any prominent actors, who happen to be playing in Lawrence at the time of the regular meeting of the club, speak to them on dramatics.
It is possible that Coach Kennedy will not be able to go with the team, as a nephew of his is very sick with an abscess on the brain and may have to be operated on.

SEAT SALE IS LARGE
Looks Like Record-Breaking
Crowd at K. U. M. U. Game.
The advance sale of tickets in the Kansas section for the Thanksgiving game started with a rush yesterday. More than $1,000 worth of tickets were sold by last night. This number is exclusive of the seats and boxes that were reserved by mail or by previous claim, which had been reserved the week before. Many of the boxes and about 200 of the reserved section had been disposed of in this manner before the seats were placed on sale.
The Kansas City alumni, who complained last year of being treated unfairly by not being allowed an equal chance with the students to secure reserved seats were allowed to make their choice first this year.
The section reserved for the "Fighting Five Hundred" has been about half sold, and Manager Lansdon thinks that they will be disposed of in a short time when all the rooters know that the seats are on sale.
Between five and six hundred students have already reserved seats for the game and the number will probably run much higher before the end of the week.The Kansas University band will accompany the rooters to the game
