LAWRENCE, Kan, Nov. 6-(Special Tel-
egram.) -Three hundred happy CornhuSkerS
took possession OF Lawrence tonight to
celebrate the 20 victory scored by Ne
braska over their hated rivals the Jay
hawkers, Saturday afternoon on McCook
field I'm one of the most remarkable exhibit
tons Of the popular college sport ever seen
in the Missouri valley. The score does not
indicate the relative merits OF the teams,
for Nebraska should have triumphed by at
least eighteen points Fortune smiled upon
the Jayhawkers and fumbling cost the
Cornhuskers at least two touchdowns.
Hopelessy outclassed in every depart
ment of the game, the Jayhawkers battled
with a determination which was a tribute
to Kennedy. Thrown back to their ten-yard
line five times, and with the ball three
times within the five-yard line, the Jay
hawkers' fighting spirit never wavered and
Nebraska failed 20 cross the goal line.
Two thousand Kansas rooters were brought
to their feet by the gameness OF the fight.
Wonderful Game.
Cole had a superior team in every re-
spect. The Cornhuskers played a wonder
full game on the offense, carrying the bail
nearly four times as far as their opponents.
The defense was so vigorous that Kansas
could not gain until the third quarter. when
the Jayhawl1ers displayed some real foot
ball ability.
For a few minutes at the opening VI the
third quarter the proteges of Kennedy out
played Nebraska, but the advantage was
short lived and Nebraska took the bail
from their own fifteen-yard line to within
striking distance OF the Jayhawker goal in
a series OF rushes which startled the con
fused Jayhawkers with the versatility of
the attack. The only touchdown of the
game was made in the final quarter after
a series OF piunges and end runs. 0. Frank
was called upon to carry the ball six yards,
and before Kansas was aware that the
Cornhusker had started, he had dRrted
through the line, past Tommy johnson and
over the chalk line. Twice during the first
quarter Nebraska carried the ball to the
ten-yard line but once a tumble aud the
second time penalties robbed Nebraska Of
the score.
In the Second Quarter.
Again in the second quarter Nebraska
carried the ball close to the Kansas goal
but tumble cost th9 touchdown.
The story Of the game is easily told in
the statistics Of yards gained on straight
foot ball and punts returned.
Nebraska gained $40 yards as against
seventy-three for Kansas. In returning
punts Nebraska made 19O yards and Kan
sas made two yards. The work Of
Chauner for Nebraska in going down under
punts was easily as brilliant as has ever
been seen in a Kansas field. He tackled
/ fiercely. While the Nebraska defense was
so stiff that Kansas had no chance 70
score.
Nebraska was thrown for a loss OF forty
five yards, while Kansas lost thirty. The
Nebraska offense was a whirlwind. Warner
confused the Jayhawkers with a remark
able versatility in directing the Corn.
husSer attack. Around Warner, Rathbons
Minor and Frank, Cole had developed a
series OF plays well calculated to dismaY
the Jayhawkers.
Very little debrutalizsd foot ball was used
by Nebraska or Kansas. The CornhuslSers
only used the forward pass twice. once for
a gain OF five yards and again for q loss
Of ten. Kansas only succeeded once with
the pass, although the Jayhawkers failed ia
seven attempts.
Ideal Foot Bali weather.
! It was an ideal day for foot ball with q
slight wind blowing from the west. The
! stands soon filled and the JayhaWker
/ rooters occupied the entire north section.
! Nebraska with delegation numbering 400
was seated in the south bleachers. Be
| tween 1900 and 500 people saw the game.
The Nebraska and Kansas bands paraded
the field prior 90 the opening Of the game
ana during the intermission OF the halves.
When the final whistle blew, Cole and
the substitutes rushed 10 the field and
danced around a circle. COnhuskers
swarmed over the stands and carried the
/ warriors from the field Forming In
parade headed by the band, the Nebraska
delegation marched up town and proceeded
70 appropriate the city for their own use.
There was little choice OF playing on the
