TALK OF KANSAN
Adrien Lindsey Famous Among
Soldiers of the A. e. +.
X. q. Football Player Makes
Big Gains for seth.
BY LIEUT.. E. w. wINGART.


Paris, France, March 20 (by mail).
A Kansas athlete-Adrien Lindsey,
former captain of the University of
Kansas football team and all-round
athletic starts probably the most
talked of football player in the A. E.
F. right now. His work in the semi
final championship game here when
the seth division team defeated the
eleven from st. Nazaire by 10 to 0
score, was one of the brilliant fea-
lures He scored the first touchdown
for his team, did remarkable punt
ing and shone brilliantly in forward
passing.
Lindsey was pitted against none
other than the famous Eddie Mahan,
of Harvard, and what he didn't do to
show the advocates of the eastern
game what westerner could do no.
body has thought of. An extract from
newspaper account of the game gives
the following:
Beat Mahan of Harvard.
"Lindsey's great punting and all
round play, the skill with which the
seth meh had the great Harvard star,
Mahan, covered thruout merit special
mention.
Lindsey booted one punt for 10
and another for Sc yards. He got his
punts away SO fast and placed them
so accurately that he repeatedly
fooled the st. Nazaire backs. He had
the edge on Mahan, one of the great
est kickers in Harvard's gridiron an
nails"
On the seth team was another Uni
versity of Kansas player, "Scrubby''
Laslett. He held down the left end
position and had the distinction of
being the only private on the Fun
ston division team. "Potsy' Clark.
former K. U. coach, starred at right
half.
The seth eleven in putting away
Capt. Eddie Harris team composed OF
such stars as Mahan, Barrett and Els
sler, is now picked as the favorite for
the A. E. F. championship which will
be decided in about two weeks. Seven
teams are playing in the tournament.
Western style Best.
The game furnished an interesting
comparison between the eastern and
western styles of play. And the score
indicates the superiority the west
showed. Hart, who coached the St.
Nazaire team. is a former Princeton
and all-American tackle. Captain
Wilmington, of Harvard, and "Potsy''
Clark of Illinois had charge of devel-
oping the S9th team but the men from
Funston had the western punch or
perhaps il was the wonderful esprit
de corps shown by the division
which grew up under the direction of
Major General Wood at Funston and
fought SO we'll in the Argonne. They
"mopped up so to speak and held
when the easterners tried to batter
over their goal from the one-foot line.
(The seth team won the champions

showing, also the ratification pro-
posal would be approved by a small
margin. it was said.
Unofficial returns from So counties,
including all of the wet centers and
big cities. showed wet majorities on
all four proposal, and unusually
large wet majorities against the
Crabbe prohibition enforcement act
and ratification of national prohibi-
ton.
Basing his assertions on late of
fetal returns from SO counties, Sec
retary of State Smith said the first
dry victory estimates had been much
too high.
State dry headquarters this morn
ing admitted the probable defeat of
the Crabbe bill said the vote was
very close on ratification but insisted
that the repeal of Statewide pro-
hibition and the 2.75 per cent. beer
amendments had been defeated by
large votes. l.. II. Gibson. wet cam
paign manager, declared the Crabbe
act overwhelmingly defeated and
ratification decisively so.
Fairly complete unofficial returns
from So of the SS counties gave the
vets lead of $4,000 on the repeal
amendment, of $4,000 on the beer
proposal, of $4,000 on ratification and
of $4,000 on the Crabbe bill.
The missing 20 counties last year
gave drys a majority of $4,000.
enough to wipe out wet leads on the
repeal and beer amendments. In
order to overcome the wet lead of
$4,000 on ratification, however. cleo
ton experts pointed out that the
drys would have to gain 10000 in
the missing counties over last year.
To overcome the wet lead OF $4,000
on the Crabbe act was regarded by
the experts as impossible.
