The RECORD TEAM
HaskelPs Score Greatest in
United States.
VIII Put Kansas City Back ON
Map Again.

Lawrence, Kan. Nov 10--The Has
ker Indians bid fair this year to make
q record in point of scoring which viii
not be equaled by any team in the
United States To date the redskins
have made a total of 2S4 points to the
opponents IA. When one realizes that
this record was made in only total or
six games against the strongest teams
IN the Kansas conference, II seems All
the more remarkable In most or the
colleges and universities, total or le''
and at its best $50 is a good avera &C.
The points scored against the Has
kell team make the record all the more
remarkable Only twice during the en-
tire season has an adversary been aoie
to cross the Indian goal line and ore
of these was distinctly OF the luke
order when the Kansas Normal roHped
across with a poor kick the result Of
an accident. In making punt the
big fullback struck the ground with his
foot before it hit the ball The Has
kell end halfback and tackles were
ball only advanced 10 yards the Normal
star halfback White captured the pig
skin and went across unchallenged
Nebraska Earned Score.
The other score. made by the Mis-
souri, Valley champions of Lincoln. was
en- earned score, but was the only Ole
the famous Nebraska eleven could
make in an hour of the dercest football
ever seen on the historic Lincoln field
Here where the much Wanted Mime
sofa varsity had been humbled only
week before Captain Williams red
skins held the foe to a single touch-
down and in turn crossed the Ne
braska goal for a touchdown, a feat
that the big northerners could not do.
The Haskell Indians who have been
the sensation of the season in the Mis-
souri, Valley may cut their annual trip
to the south This will be welcome
news to the fans of this vicinity as in
that event Kansas City bugs Will get
chance to see the redskins in action
in one and probably two games
Put Kansas City on Map.
Ever since the Missouri Valley re-
gents -butted in on the good old col
lege game Kansas City. has in a sense
been off the map. True a few Of the
college teams have played here, and
K c. has done her full share in fur
nishine competent officials but the
good old days when the big schools
made this their neutral battle-ground
seemed to have passed
However if the tentative plans of
Manager Venue of the Haskell team
goes through, Kansas City will see the
classiest game Of the season. when the
redskins and Christian Brothers col
1ege tangle on Thanksgiving day. at
the Gordon & Koppel field. And still
another contest on the Saturday pre-
ceding will be staged with the cham
pion college team of Missouri.
A battle between the first two men
toned should be a grand contest Has
keIl is surely the equal of any of the
conference elevens and c. B. c. has
not lost a game in two seasons Last
year on Thanksgiving day the st. Louis
eleven defeated Coach Kennedy's IA
vorites by the score of to g. and lhis
IL t. IL
get Indian revenge on the Catholics so
both teams will work with that game
in mind, so We predict it will be some
battle.
The Haskell authorities are hoping
that DR.. Ashton's normal team will
again clean up the college CHAMPION
ship as the Warrensburg mentor is a
former pupil OF DR.. Kennedy's.
