than 80 articles. among the stolen
property found in one mans posses

The home Of another man at Hoult
was searched. as was the home OF a
man in the First ward this morning,
but the supplies found in each house
which belonged to the railroad were
few, and as the men used the articles
found in their daily labors for the
company, no arrests were made ir
either case Several lanterns, oil
cans, lamps and other supplies were
also found by the officers.

Pinchot Talks
(By United Press. J

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Jan. 16.-As a
sequel 70 his recent speech ut Wash
lngton charging that predatory powers
are organized under the cloak OF the
States rights movement to transfer
public lands and the national forests
from Federal to State control, eX.State
Forester Clifford Pinchot cited to- the
Syracuse Chamber of Commerce this
afternoon long list OF bills introduced
in Congress tending towards this point.
A conservation policy. he said, is more
completely in effect IN the National
forest than elsewhere. That the nat.
ural resources are not available with
equal freedom for the full use of the
people is the fault not OF the friends
Of conservation, but its enemies, whose
finale efforts to break down the whole
policy is amply in the attempt to take
the National forests and land out OF
the control OF the National government
where they are safe and put them into
the hands OF the State where they may
not be safe.

FOOTBALL GOSSIP
Washburn Had Reason for Not
~Opening Up" Saturday.
Blue Figured 0 to 0 Score as
Good as q Victory.
"WASHBURk never QUITS
X. u. Wondered at Wonderful
Spirit Behind Team.
Score of X. u. Contest Doesn't
Tell the Tale.

The 600 or more Washburn support
ers who accompanied the football squad
to Lawrence Saturday and the 5000 K.
u. rooters who watched the contest
from the north side of .McCook field
are still asking the one question-"Why
didn't Washburn uncork her open plays
before the game was lost?"
Here 10 the answer:
Coach Grip Gray and his players
felt that Washburn had a chance to
win from Kansas by playing simply
defensive game. In other words If
Washburn had held X. U. scoreless, it
would have been a victory for the Blue.
owing to the tremendous odds and the
fact that the Kansas strength and
standing in the Missouri valley is SUI
perior to that Of the Sons Of Ichabod.
Another thing:
Open work play is only q gamble.
The man who intercepts a forward
pass, for instance. has a much better
chance to squirt to the opposing goal
for a touchdown than the player who
receives it. Washburn was holding
Kansas, until the last eight minutes
OF play. To open up her formations,
spread out the plays and hand the uni
verstty men three to one chance for
a touchdown was against the policy of
Coach Gray and his field general. Quar-
terback Elbe.
After Kansas had slipped over her
touchdown, however, 1t was Wash
burns only chance to make a score
and the forward pass and trick forma-
lions were brought into action. AS
1t was, the Sons of Ichabod were sue
cessful and were hiking down the field
toward the X. u. goal when the whistle
blew.
1t IL agreed among the players that
the right methods were used. On The
other hand there is a question that APP
pears-is Washburn going to work year
after year simply to hold X. U. or to
win from X. u? The idea in the Blue
camp was to repeat last years victory
ing that Washburn should have played
on the offensive.
The whole thing dwindles down to
the bald fact that the university line
averaging 20 pounds to the man heavier
than Washburn. wore out the Blue
players. The Sons Of Ichabod were able
to stand under fire for three quarters
then came the fireworks.
1t is believed. however, that Coach
Gray should have made one move-sent
in substitutes for the men who were
worn out and dragging" 1t could be
Forbes and Whitcomb-two men who
played pluckily and effectively-were
battered to a pulp. Gray could have
sent In Meyers ana a line SUBSTITUTE
and added strength and pep to his Iine-
up. It Is possible that the coach didn't
know the conditions out on the field.
The players knew it.
The score, IA to o, will go down in
football history as q decisive victory
for the university. The mere figures
will not tell q tale of one of the best
games ever witnessed on McCook field
Fourteen to nothing will not place on
the records of the two schools the fate
of a game that was not decided until
the last few minutes Of play. It viii
