RECORD ACREAGE
Aggregate of 100000 Acres in
Wheat SOwn in State.
Exceeds All Previous Records
by Twenty Per Cent.

Wichita, Nov. 17.-Kansas wheat
was never in better condition at this
season OF the year, according to a state
ment made today by C. v. Topping
secretary of the Southern Kansas MIL
lers' Club. Mr.. Topping says tnat
from reliable sources he has informa-
ton on which he bases an estimate
of nearly 100000 acres sown this
fall. This is by far the largest acre
age of wheat ever sown in Kansas
The largest previous acreage was
100000.
"Recent rains in practically all
parts of Kansas have put the ground
in excellent condition for the winter
ing of the CROP" said Mr.. Topping.
Throughout the wheat belt the sub
soil is thoroughly saturated and the
plants are in a healthy condltlon.
This is in direct contrast with the
condition of the soil last year. Though
the wheat was in good condition at
the beginning of winter, the subsoil
was dry and the plants had little
moisture from which to draw sus-
tenance during the winter and spring.
If there had been copious spring and
early summer rains the wheat would
have matured but the unusually short
rainfall, coupled with the dry sub
soil, supplied insufficient moisture
for the wheat.
Mr.. Topping does not regard 1t as
at all probable that Kansas will be
visited next summer by another Sc
we're season of drouth, and If it is
not, he expects to see the biggest
wheat yield in the history OF the state.

KANSAS TO COME BACK
Determined to Defeat Coaches
Optimistic.

Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 1.-THE de-
feat of the Jayhawkefs at the hands OF
the Cornhuskers has let down a sud-
den damper on Kansas enthusiasm
which has been running SO. high OF
late, and the big celebrations planned
have been abandoned. Jayhawk town
as though a great funeral had been
staged. Practically all the Nebraska
rooters left, and, as a result, what lit
tie excuse there could be for a big
time has disappeared.
However, even though the Kansana
were defeated by Nebraska. they were
not discouraged in regard to the Mis-
souri, battle next Saturday. and there
is a general sentiment that Kansas will
come back as it seems to be their an
nual custom, and take the Tigers for
a good trouncfng.
The official report Of the attendance
at the Nebraska game has not been
Strengthened out yet, but Manager w.
o. Hamilton estimated the attendance
at $500 and the total receipts of ST.
600.
Coach Stiehm stated: IT was almost
sure that we would again defeat the
Jayhawkers, but had some little fear
when 1 learned of the condition of Nc
Cook field. However, I am satisfied
with the playing of the boys, and
believe we won because we had the
better team. However, the Kansans
gave us a stiff battle"
Coach Mosse declared: Nebraska
showed great strength and won a hard
fought game. Our team was not out
played, but was outkicked which kept
the ball in territory dangerous to Kan
saS.''
Assistant Coach Frank said: I'VE
promised the Cornhuskers a hard game
and they got it. am making no ex-
cuses and believe that Coach Stiehm's
men won because they had a better
team"

THREE CHAMPIONS
Chicago, Nebraska and Michi-
gan Won Conference Titles.
Missouri Can Tie COrnhuskers
by Defeating Kansas.

Chicago, Nov. 17.-Middle western
football reached it's climax Saturday
Michigan again demonstrated its SUI
perfority over the east. Chicago won
the western conference championship
In Its game with Minnesota. Nebras-
ka retaining honors, won from Kan
sas in the Missouri Valley conference.
The three victories were clear-cut and
decisive. There still is a possibility
OF conference anti-climax. Chicago
still has game with Wisconsin, last
years western leaders Missouri still
IS a contender for equal honors with
Nebraska in the Missouri Valley. Ne
braska also, to keep it's record of a
years unbroken victories, must win
from Iowa, although the game has no
title bearing.
Michigan can rest upon its honors,
the final whistle Of the Pennsylvania
ending the Wolverine season. Mich
igan's four final games Of the season,
in which it whipped decisively one
southern and three eastern teams, is
the best showing of a western team
in fnter-sectional football. Among
football critics. the record is regarded
as more than of mere victories. It is
one In which the eastern opponents
were outclassed-a record in which
the western style of play compelled
the conservative east to bow before
as well as teams.
The Western Conference.
Chicago's defeat of Minnesota
places the local team in the command
ing position in the western confer
ence race. Wisconsin is now the only
barrier between the Maroons and q
clear title. Chicago. playing a con-
ference schedule only, has a record

Chicago's showing is far the best.
Four touchdowns have been made
against Chicago, one each by Indiana,
Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota For
only one of these scores did an oppos-
ing team batter its way to the Maroon
goal line. Seven touchdowns have
been made against Wisconsin and
SIX OF these were the result of a
fairly steady march to the Badger
goal.

Indiana won high score and hard
fought game at Evanston by the luck

make goal kick. The result allows
Northwestern and Ohio State the
right to determine last place in the

Nebraska, claimant Of the Missouri

the unsatisfactory kind. played in
