AGGIES TO LINCOLN
Kansas Farmers Will Meet Strong
Cornhuskers Tomorrow Afternoon.

Manhattan, Kan, Oct. ia large
squad of Kansas Aggie football play
ers. accompanied by Coaches eleven
ger and Schultz, were ready to leave
here tonight for Lincoln where they
will meet the University of Nebraska
in the first conference game of the
season. The game tomorrow will be
the first real test for both teams. Last
week the Nebcaskans defeated Drake
by a So to 0 score while the Aggies
won from Southwestern with a SINH
lar score. Both teams have shown
scoring power and much interest will
be attached to tomdrrow's contest to
see if this power has been a fictitious
one because of weak opponents.
The Kansas tea m has been printing
for a week for the battle against the
Cornhuskers, which followers of the
game believe will determine in a great
measure the answer to the question
so often asked: VIII Nebraska be as
strong this year as last?" Coach
Stewart apparently has overcome the
loss of Chamberlain and Rutherford,
and has developed another speed
team.
With eleven old men back, headed
by Randalls, the star backfield per-
former, the Kansas team appeared
confident that they would make a
good showing at Lincoln tomorrow

The razor was found in the vault of
an clubhouse across the alley from the
point where the murder was commit

who owns the place and apparently he
had washed it,. However, there are
spots upon the blade which a physi-

Giant smashed one into left that
looked like a sure hit. Lewis dashed
in at top speed. bent almost to the
ground and scooped the ball almost off
the grass. Wheats catch was even
more sensational. 1t was in the fifth
innil-r and robbed Shore of a hit. He
had to run far into center field to
duplicate Lewis catch.
Janvrin and Lewis were credited
with the only extra base hits of the
game. Lewis tripled in the second
and Janvrin doubled in the fifth.
