HUSKERS WIN 21-O
Dawson Puts in His Best
Against Bachman Eleven.
Stark Stars for Aggies, and
Noble for Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb.. Nov. 20.-Football
men from Kansas State Agricultural
college were here Saturday for the
greatest football battle that has been
seen in Lincoln for some time They
opposed the Nebraska Cornhuskers,
and while the Huskers took the long
end of the score, it was not until the
final whistle sounded that the game
was safe. Nebraska counted three
touchdowns during the sixty minutes
of play, and kicked. all three of the
goals.
Coach Dawson did not start some
of his regulars at the opening of the
game, but the way the Coach Bach
man eleven performed convinced him
that his regulars were needed, and
they went in. He was saving out sew
eral of his best men for the Notre
Dame game in Lincoln Turkey day.
The Kansas Aggies, by their per
1ormance in this town easily are pick
ed as the second strongest team in
the valley and as the strongest eleven
the Huskers have faced in Missouri
valley circles this season.
Early in the third period the Aggies
threatened the Nebraska goal line by
that great passing system, and it was
in this period that the Aggies out
wore the Kansas eleven down, how
ever. and netted a touchdown in each
one of the remaining periods.
-Lewellen made the first counter for
the Husker crew after an Aggie punt
had been recovered on the Aggies' 20
yard line. In the third quarter Lew
ellen again scored, this time inter-
cepting q pass and running 20 yards
for the touchdown. Noble. Husker
left half. counted for the third touch
down. when he went half the length
of the field on five successive plays.
H DEWITT kicked all the goals.
The Aggies put over a touchdown IN
the second quarter. a pass, Swartz to
Stark, after the ball had been carried
to the 1O-yard line, but a backfield
in motion called the ball back and the
touchdown did not count. 1t was
a great play, and in Swartz to stark
and Stark to Swartz, Coach Bach
man has a wonderful passing combi-
ntion
Stark played the best game of his
career, and he was loudly cheered by
the fans. Noble was the outstanding

TOPEKA MEETS OLD RIVAL
Despite Fact Dope Favors Topeka, a

Topeka high school meets its great
est grid rival Saturday on Washburn
field when it opposes Lawrence high
school in the annual game between
these two schools. The teams this
year are evenly matched, and one of
pected by the Topeka team. Accord
ing to results of previous games this
season, Topeka should win by several
points, but dope never affects the
clash between Lawrence and Topeka.
The game probably will be a fight to
the finish
Lawrence was defeated Saturday, Z
to 6, by the lola high school team.
The Red and Black team this year
has one of the best high school pass
ing machines in the state. Passes
from Mackie, fullback. and captain,
to Critics, end, have gained many yards
this season. The Lawrence backfield
playing at the pilot position and Lind
ley. who last year played quarterback,
has been shifted to ha1fback. Hutton,
the other halfback, plays a fast game.
Mackie, at fullback, is one of the best
passers in Kansas high school football,
and is strong line plunger- In the
line, Lawrence has in Laptad, tackle,
one of the best high school Hnemen in
the state Davidson, at center, also
plays a good game. Altho Lawrence
has only made a mediocre showing in
games this season, it will put its hard
est fight against Topeka.
The Topeka squad held only light
signal practice this evening, but stiff
scrimmage practice will be held for
the next three days. The line and
backfield both played well in the game
with Atchison, and the Topeka play
ers will fight hard for victory Satur-

Washburn VS. St Mary's, in st. Marys.

The Indians demonstrated conclusive

Kansas State normal was taking a vic
tory from the strongest eleven in the
conference. At least there is but one
other eleven that seems to be nearly
as good as the Coach "Bi1P' Hargiss
crew, and that is Baker university.
These two elevens do not meet this

The Normal is due to finish the

less the unexpected should happen,
