CAN K. U. DO IT?
Jayhawkers Conceded Good
Chance to Humble Huskers.
They Have Not Won From
Their Old Rivals Since 1909.

With football men predicting that
Kansas university will give the Ne
braska Cornhuskers a closer battle
next Saturday than in years. and with
many going so far as to predict and
bet on Kansas victory, interest in the
game at Lincoln is reaching large pro-
portions thruout the entire Missouri
valley.
The wonderful progress the Jay
hawkers have made since their defeat
by Ames and the fact that the Ne
braskans do not seem to have the
driving punch former Lincoln elevens
have had are causing Olcott-Clark
stock to soar and it looks as tho the
to 1 money on Nebraska will be in
the museum rarity class by the end
of the week
The victory over the Sooners and
the easy manner in which they de-
feated Washburn last week have given
confidence to the X. U. men and they
have been pretty thoroly convinced
that a victory is within their grasp
if they only show the proper fight and
aggressiveness. Even in Lincoln it is
admitted that the Huskers are weak
on the offense and Nebraska scouts
who were in Topeka last Saturday
made no secret of the fact that their
main strength lay in the defense of
their line.
Need More Than Line.
However, with kickers like Wood
ward and Vernson and passers like
Woodward and Lindsey, the Kansans
are pretty apt to play a more DIVERSE
ned game than any team Nebraska
has met this season and their rock

STILL IN The LEAD
Oliphant, of Army, Greatest Scorer in
Football This Year.

New York, Nov. 15.-Low scores in
the football games of last week caused
Tightening in the race for both team
and individual point honors among the
leading elevens of the east and adj
jacent sections. Two southern teams,
Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt, still hold
the list as premier scoring machines,
with Penn State, Syracuse and Michi-
gan closely grouped for trailing hon
ors. Brown, Georgetown, Pittsburg
and Notre Dame are not far in the
rear.
Oliphant of the Army and
Mauldetsch of Michigan are the lead
ers in the struggle for the individual
honors with the West Point player
and former Purdue star just one point
ahead of the Wolvt me battering ram.
Cofall of Notre Dame is third with
Gerrish of Dartmouth fourth, two
points below. McCreight of Pittsburg
and Pollard of Brown, also made
rapid gains during the past week, and
with McQuad of Georgetown and
Sprafka of Minnesota, are moving to
the fore

While nothing is being sighted in
the way of preparations for the Fair
mount game here Friday and the
clash with The c. of E. next week, at
the same time practically every move
that is being made is one that II is
thought will help hold the Wildcats.
Plans have already been put on foot
at the college to take big student
following with the team to Aggieville
and if enough enthusiasm and inter-
est can be aroused, a special train will
be chartered.
IF we can keep the Aggies from
beating u.s." Doctor Kennedy says,
I'VE will be able to look back at the
seasons record with a great deal OF
pride, despite the fact that K. u, the
Normals and Friends beat us, and we
will feel that we have accomplished
a great deal in the matter of molding
together a team that will be in the
running all the way next season"
Needs Star Ends
1t is very evident that the Ichabod
mentor considers Randalls the most
dangerous cog in the Clevenger ma
chine, and it appears that he is build
ing his hopes on the possibility of de-
veloping end who will be able to
cope with the pride of the Farmers.
Right now he has more candidates for
end positions than for any other
places on the team and Champeny
and Hope are all being prined for
the wing tip berths.
Calihan, who has been carrying a
limp since the Baker game, is again
showing his old form and if he gets
back into the game with his early
season fighting spirit and bulldog de-
termination, he is more than apt to be
started in the Aggie game. 1t is very
likely that Calihan will be placed at
one end and Champeny or Heller at
the other.
Strengthen the Line.
In addition to trying to develop
more effective ends, efforts are being
made to strengthen the line thruout.
"Oz" Larimer was out assisting DIR.
Kennedy Tuesday night and he de-
voted most of his time to work on the
line. 1t is admitted that the guard
and tackle positions are the weakest
spots on the team. and there is no ap-
parent reason for it other than that
the men have not found themselves
and have not the confidence thry
should have.

Prospects Are Much Brighter
for Game With HOltOn.

With troubles over cigarette smok-
ing nicely ironed out and four of the
five stars suspended for toying with
the pills back in the lineup the high
school is breathing more freely over
the prospect of the game with the
star Holton eleven next Saturday aft

Charles Yonkers have taken the oath

TEX" Kouns, one of the best high
school field generals in Kansas, will

to equal the record of his brother.
football captain, will probably run the
team. All Smiley lacks is a trifle
more experience to make him one of
the high schools best bets.
Holton Is Strong.

"WEEDES" WIN AGAIN
Cooper College Team Defeats the c.
of E. by IL to Score.

Emporia, Kan, Nov. 15.-The
Cooper college seam of DR.. Garfield
Weede, which is said by many critics
to be stronger than the team with
which he walked thru the Kansas con-
ference last season. lived up to its
reputation by defeating the College
of Emporia eleven II to Tuesday
afternoon.
The Sterling lads played sterling
football turnout and completely out
classed the locals by mixing straight
line bucks with criss cross plays and
brilliant end runs in such a way that
they could not be held in check. The
first score came in the opening period
when Cheatum went over for Cooper.
On the second play of the second
quarter Roger went over for the sec
ond touchdown after a tumble had
been recovered on the 10 yard line.
Goal was missed after both touch
downs.
The Emporia team SCI red later in
the second quarter on forward
pass. The game was played on frozen
ground and the weather was so cold
that neither team could do its best.

Fairmount team is much stronger
Wheatshockers outweighing the Icha-
bods there is no absolute certainty as
to the outcome of Fridays game 1t
is understood that Lamar Hoover, the
Fafrmount coach who is an old Baker
university student, is laying for Wash
burn to avenge the defeat handed his
alma mater and that he will drive his
men harder than he has driven them
in any previous game.
Paramount Looking Ahead.
The Wheatshockers also are train
ing for the big battle ahead, as they
meet their old rivals, the Quakers, at
Wichita on Thanksgiving day With
Friends not playing up to the form
shown earlier in the season, the Fair
mount chances are much brighter and
they really expect to make it a hard
scrap if they come thru the Washburn
game without injuries
The Washburn athletic management
is anxiously watching the weather pre-
dictions for Friday, and a good day is
hoped for to insure paying the ex-
penses which are larger than ordinary
because of the long trip the Wheat
shockers have to make. The game
will be called at 2:30 so that it will
be completed before darkness sets in

The MiddieS Have Not Crossed
Army Goal Since 1907.
They Expect to Break Long
Standing Jinx Nov. 25.

New York, Nov. 15.-When the
Army and Navy football teams go into
action for their annual meeting at the
Polo grounds on November rs, there
which the Navy probably will play as
hard as for victory.
Victory can come by drop-kicks,
place-kicks or safeties, but a touch
down is a touchdown, and the Navy
hasn't put over one of that kind of
scores on the Army since 1907 when
Capt. Ben Douglas had the pleasure
of falling over the Army goal line.
The middies have a stronger scor-
ing team this year than has repre-
scented the Annapolis school for some
time, so it is reasonable to believe
Cadets goal. They were equal to the
task of slapping a close score against
the powerful Pittsburg eleven, and
with this to go on it is hard to see
how the Army will be able to hold
them entirely free from touchdown.
Many Chances Failed.
Many a football star has had a
chance to plant a football between the
Army goal posts for the Navy since
Douglas laid over that touchdown, but
four classes have ambled their way
thru the school and out into their
duties aboard Uncle Sans battleships
without seeing the Navy teams accom-
plish that touchdown.
Defeat hasn't been their lot in those
intervening years every year. Field
goals have brought the future admir-
ais victory three times in the seven
games played since than. In 1908
LANCE kicked a goal from placement,
but the Navy lost. 6 to 4, field goals
counting four points at that stage of
football. The 1909 game was called
off because of a death at West Point.
In 1910 Dalton booted one over the
Army goal posts and the Navy won,
8 to @. In 1911 Dalton repeated his
stunt and the Navy won by the same
score. Brown made two field goals
in the 1912, game and the Middies
won their third consecutive victory, 6
to 0.
The 1912 game was the last TO go to
Annapolis. In 1913 Brown three
times sent the oval over the Army
goal posts, but it wasn't enough, the
Army winning, % to 8. In 1911 and
in 1915 the Army won.

INSIDE GRIDIRON TIPS
LeGore Great PLAYER.
BY CHARLES e. BRICKLEY.

Harry LeGore of Yale ranks right
next to Mahan and Hardwick in my
opinion when it comes to the actual
value of single player to a team. Lee
Gore is very much the Mahan type of
a football player, for he can do any
thing that the game requires With
him in the game this year again, Yale
has a wonderful asset. Every team
that plays Yale will have to watch Le-
Gore constantly, as he is apt to do
most anything. He can kick, run and
pass like Mahan and it will be hard to
build a defense for him. LeGore is
a fine type of athlete. He is a gem
tleman in the truest sense of the word
and credit to any game.
1 think the hardest player I ever
played against was Ballon of Prince
ton. In 1913, in the game which
punted about thirty-two times. I was
playing one of the halfbacks and my
assignment was to help protect the
kicker. Every time we punted. Ballon
crashed into me just as hard as he
could. I was so tired after the first
ing the second half on offense. Bal
lon was a terrific worker and never
seemed to tire.
The busiest five minutes 1 ever
spent in football was used up trying
to interfere on Bomeisler. the old Yale
end, in the Harvard-Yal game of
1912. which Harvard won 900. For a
man weighing 100 pounds. he was the
fastest have ever seen When he
went down the field on punts it seem
ed almost impossible for a halfback
to stop him. Bomeisler was hurt in
that game and was taken out after ten
minutes of play. Had he stayed in. I
think the score would have been diff
ferent.-(Copyright. Wheeler Syndi-
cate.)
