"Oh me. oh my-won't we black that
| Tigers eye was the cry among the
Jay'hawker rooters as the pupils of
Coach Kennedy tore through the line
| OF the Hawkeyes on McCook field Sat-
urday afternoon. By defeating the
| Iowans by score of 20 to the Kan
| sans visions of another ever victorious
| team of gridiron heroes were given a
roster tint
The Karsas eleven played, a. snappy
| class of football which the team has
| not before displayed this year. Only old
style plays were used but the line
charges were fast and furious and of a
| nature that the line of the Iowans could
| not withstand. The contrast between
the teams wner it came to speed in
| getting off was marked, the Kansas
back field, which during the first OF
| the season gained the reputation of be-
ing sluggish, exhibiting swiftness that
was a decided surprise to the wildly
shouting throng of 1000 rooters.
Although. the score was one-sided the
game by no means lacked the elements
that go to make a contest exciting
Surprises were being enacted from
start to finish. Notwithstanding the
fact that the Jayhawkers during con-
siderable portion of the contest romp
ed apparently at ease through and
around their opponents, fairly outclass--
ing them, some OIL the pT6ttleSt pidyS
of the game were made by the latter
and at times the Iowans showed bril-
liant form. The Hawkeyes played
more open game than did the heavier
pupils of Coach Kennedy and four times
did they successfully work the forward
pass, but their attempts at fake plays
were not successful
The flashy work of Quarterback
Pete He'll of Topeka was one of the
features of the game, for he was al
ways good for gain of from 15 to 80
yards in the recovering of punts. In
the kicking department Hyland out
classed the little Kansas quarterback.
Through penalties Kansas lost 80
yards while Iowas record was but a
little more than a fourth as great. 4
Trio Did Brilliant Work.
For K. U. Pleasant, Dahlene and
Magill were a rapid trio and got into
almost every play Capt. Pleasant was
a star of the game, and the speed of
McGill, a recent find was surprise.
The team work of the squad was a
feature which added much to the
strength of the team at times plays
moving like clock work.
1t was the Iowan's right end, dy-
land who was the star from the Hawk
eye state. He distinguished himself
through his consistent long gains, and
excellent punting and tackling. The
negro tackle played good defensive
ball, as did Quarterback Stewart, who
prevented Kansas from scoring on
number of occasions. Captain Gross
who held down the right tackle po-
sitions with one arm strapped to his
side during a portion of the first half
was decidedly out of condition.
At 2:39 Iowa kicked off to Dahlene
who returned the ball to the Kansas
SO yard line. From the very start the
superiority of the Lawrence team was
evident. Lovett and Dahlene each car
ried the ball for eight yards and dur
ing the first five minutes were the CEN
trail figures in the playing. He'll, the
little quarterback who took Tommy
Johnson's place ran the team in great
shape and it was splendid offensive
work that the squad was putting up
The ball was taken to the Iowa 20
yard line by line bucks and short |
runs. Iowa then got possession of the |
pigskin but found the opposing line |
to be as solid as stone wall and was |
compelled to punt. The Kansans re- |
worked the oval to the Iowans g.
yard line and then made the neces- |
sary gains for a touchdown, Dahlene |
turning the trick.
Goal Is Missed.
The kick out for try at goal was
missed making the score to 0. The
next interesting feature of the game |
was Iowa's safety. It was caused by |
Lovett's fumbling the ball in attempt
ing to punt. and an Iowa pinn1ng t
him to the ground after he had re-
covered. The second Kansas touch
down was due to a tumble. Hyland
was on the point of making a forward
pass when he was tackled and in the
act of being thrown to earth he drop
ped the pigskin which was quickly
scooped up by Dahlene. Pleasant
was successful in kicking goal and
the score stood II u 2 with Kansas in
possession of the large end. The
third and last touchdown for the
Jawhawkers was made by Pleasant
after series of line bucks. With an
other goal to the credit of the Kan
