day and the game here between WASH
burn college and Nebraska promises
to be the most important from the
standpoint of close followers of the
sport. Coach Gray has been pointing
his men for this contest which he re-
CARDS as one Of the most Important
on the Washburn schedule.
Although the Cornhuskers beat the
Ichabods last year. it was not by q
large score, and with the return of
Gray's entire team of last year, which
shows exceptional strength in the
backfield. Nebraska Is forced to face
one Of the hardest games Of it's sched-
ule in its opening game and it will not
be unexpected if the Ichabods pile up
q large score.
The fact that Washburn clashes
with K. U. at Topeka on Nov. z makes
it possible for followers Of Kansas to

against the Ichabods by Nebraska and
Kansas.

The Uplift Club OF Richmond.

The Club met in regular session on
Monday afternoon March %. This
CLUB is composed of men and women
of the city who are striving to make
Richmond a more attractive city.
They meet every second and fouth
Monday at $50 p. M, at Caldwell
High School.
Just at this time the club is working
upon the question of cleaning up the
city. 1t was suggested that all other
organizations be invited to join in a
publicity day when a mass meeting
will be called and plans devised to
reach every part of the city. 1t is
thought that two or three days might
be set apart for cleaning up the entire
city. The schools of the city might be
enlisted, the student bodies organized
under the teachers or citizens, and the
neglected sections of the city be reach
ed in this way. The business men and
professional men might become inter-
ested enough TO put on overalls, take
rakes, hoes, brooIis, brushes, etc., and
help out for the two days or more
Reports have come from some other
Kentucky cities where this plan has
worked very successfully.
We think the City of Richmond
should not be behind in a movement
of this kind. All citizens of Richmond
who are interested in the welfare of
the city are cordially invited 10 be-
