strikingly a falling off are corn hogs

The short crop OF last year accounts
for the loss in hogs and corn and free

Washburn Has Won Five, Lost Eight
and Tied Two.

Everything is set for the big Wash
burn-K- q. game tomorrow. A big
student rally in chapel this morning
stirred enthusiasm to the very dregs.
A big bonfire will be held tonight, the
squad will hold light practice this aft
ernoon, and then activities will cease
until the game starts at $3.50 tomor-
row afternoon.
Thursdays practice was long and
hard and full of pep" Offensive and
defensive work was given and
"Pinky'' Beals at quarter drove hard
and fast with Trobert whipping up
from the end. One OF the largest
practice crowds of the season was
lined around the rectangle and enthu-
siasm over the prospects ran high.
They have a mighty good chance to
win." and ''That line ought to hold all
right" were some Of the sideline COM
ments. All the men seem to be in
fairly good shape except Vfllipigue,
dered by DR.. Ernest to stay out of a
uniform.
No announcement as to the lineup
has been made, but it is probable that
the game will be begun with the fol-
lowing: Trobert, r. E.: D. Whitcomb.
r. T.: r. Whitcomb. r. c.; Barrett,
&C.; Wolfe. l. G.: Stewart. L. T.;
Rearg, F. b.: and Champeny or Nc
Cash. r. H.
Wolfe Works Good.
Wolfe's work at guard was the big
feature OF Thursday afternoons prac-
tfce, and the lineup now looks better
than it has at any time this season.
The advance ticket sales indicate a
record crowd and only the weather
mans cooperation is needed to make
tomorrow the biggest football day To-
peka ever witnessed.
Coaches Wheaton and Bond and their
squads will arrive in Topeka tomorrow
morning at 1915, accompanied by a
large crowd of X. U. roOters. a real
band and the members of the freshman
football team. A delegation Of Tope-,
kans will meet them at the depot and
welcome them to the city. They will
probably lunch early and lightly and
will then go out and prepare to meet
their fate
Last year X. U defeated washburn
rooter who believes they can repeat
the performance in spite Of the fact
that they are said to have a powerful
team and have SO far won every game
on their schedule.
The showing the Washburn players
make in tomorrow's game will. in a
large measure, decide the fate Of a
number OF the mea who are likely cam
didates for the al1-Kansas eleven Also,
Trobert's puntfng will figure promi-
nently In tomorrow's score. II his toe
is IN form and at its best. it will prove
a valuable defensive tool Headwork
on the part of every man will also be
necessary and the Tchabods should be
ready to meet the old Yale shift which
seems to be X. O. favorfte.
However. the freshmen have been
using this play considerably and Mr..
Wheaton will probably find it less ef-
fective than he anticipates.
