Five Hundred Cornhuskers To Go
To Ames With Nebraska Warriors
The Ames special is now a reality
pioviding five hundred Husker en
thusiasts make the trip according to
latest reports of the Innocents society
and . the athletic department. A spe
cial train will be chartered lor tne

pected to send more students than are
necessary to fill the seven hundred
seats that have been reserved fee
Nebraska students and fans in the
Ames Stadium.
The round trip tickets can be had
for $11.50 or less than ne and one
third of the price of a ticket ordin
arily. This price is unusually low anl
was secured only after considerable
difficulty by Dean Engberg who pre
vailed upon the officials of the rail
road at Omaha to make this rate pos
sible.
The trip will no only afford the
students a chance to see a football
game at another school but will also
give them the advantage of seeing an-"
other great University.
Complete plans for the trip have not
yet been made public but it Is officially-
announced that there will b-3
plenty of entertainment for any who
make the trip in addition to the -foot-hall
game The "Corncobs" are making
the journey in a body and although
their doings are a deep mystery it is
a certainty that they will not be idle
bet-veen the halves of the game.
rvtpr schools bare been sending
huge delegations to the football games.

The Nebraska Girls completed a
successful season of soccer, when t'ie
sophomores won from the juniors in
he interclass finals Wednesday, wun
a score or z-i. .
The finals were played Wednesday
afternoon. The juniors surprised the
nphemorC3 by scoring in the nrsi
three minutes of play. The sophomore
played a swift game but every time
the ball approached the junior goal,
Ruby Damme, the guard used her de
pendable r'ght rrm in flinging the bnli
cut of danger. The juniors were met
with similar difficulty by Jo Creek
paum, in the sophomore back field
who has the most powerful kick in
?amp. Bessie Epstein, junior, was in
iirputably the best dribbler on -the
field. At the end of the tour quarters
the score was 1-1. Lois Shepherd, made
foe decisive goal and won for her class
the right to have their numerals on
the scccer cup. Davida Van unaer,
Blanche Gramlich and Sara Curbr
piayed well for the juniors. Many girls
played a 'heady' game, but only the
goal keepeis were allowed to he 'han-
1y' with the ball. Irene Springer, as
sisted by Irma Johnson and Eleanor
Snell as linesmen, refereed the game

The Kansas Jayhawkers were the
victims of Nebraska heartlessness
Saturday afternoon ibetween the
halres cf the football contest.
A large cardboard "Jayhawk' sprint
ing about the field under the clever
guidance of a Cornhusker student,
met his doom at the hands of an ax
wielded by Erven Ilodson, freshman
.fiootball jman dressed in a varsity
suit.
The Jayhawk approached the mid
dle of the field from the side lines
ruA Hodson marched to the battle
without daunting in the least. When
he readied the bird he hesitated a
little and then swinging the mighty
ax, he cut the hea l of the Kansas
Jayhawk from its body. Following up
his heartlessness, he left the bird to
suffer without giving it a second
look.
The body and head of the huge
Jayhawk was placed in the casket
end the Sphinxs marched "sadly" off
tLe field.
af Oklahoma visitors who cams to
Lincoln from Norman,' Okla., a muc::
greater distance than from Nebrask-.
to Ames. The Oklahoma boosters came
all of seven hundred miles merely to
see a football game and then proved
tatm selves such good sports concern
ing the outcome of the game that N2
braskan will always rememter them
a? eome of the beet rivals that they
have ever known.
The distance to Ames is only two
v.
hundred miles and tne irip can u
made by starting from Lincoln ai
about 6 a. m. Saturday. The train
ill arrive at Ames about noon and the
return will be made following and ent
ertainment in the evening.
The University band is being takei
o the game thirty strong and the
smdents are wanted to back it up in
'ts loyal support of the team.
The unusuai strength of the Husker
l'neup this fall makes all of the games
interesting games and there is a
thrill to each of them and the Ames
game is expected to be no exception.
"On to Ames." will be the motto of
the week and it is to be hopeO that
every student will take up the cry and
be there himself bringing another.
In order to secure the special train
it is necessary that those in charge
cf the trip know how many will go.
The only war in which they can find
out is by the nmber of tickets sold
and five hundred of these must go be
fore the Husker special can leave Lin
coln. Reservations for the trip may
be made at the Student activities of

FIFTH GRID VICTORY FOR COACH DAWSON'S GRID MEN
Heavy Nebraska Line And Fast, Bac . field Men Crash Through Kansas
Line And Outplay Them In Nearly Every Department of The
Game. I
-v.
The 1921 Cornhusker eleven scored it's fifth victory of the sea-son yest
erday before a rrowd of 11,000 Husker and Jayhawk enthusiastic fans when
the Kanzas Jayhawkers were forced to bow in defeat to the Scarlet and
Cream eleven alter Couch Dawson's men had piled up a total of 28 points
while the Kansaivs were unable to score. The Huskers have won every
contert of the snason by the shut out route and the Nebraska goal line
has t-3en crosse.1 only once this year tliat coining at the hands of Notre
r-ame.
The heavy Nebraska forwards and backfield performers crashed through
the lighter Kansas team f:ir many h'g gains and completely outplayed the
Jayhawkers in, practically every depnrtment of the game. The entire Corn
husker team played wonderful football and Coach Dawson is to be especially
cemmended for the manner in which he and his assistants have perfected the
dazzling attack and stonewall defense of the Huskers.
Between halves the Kansas and NVhraska bands paraded the fields and
played the popular songs of both Universities. The University "Corncobs,"
a new organization,' on the campus, put on several stunts that brought a
Lirge amount of applause from the b;ge crowd assembled to view the an
111a' Husker-Jayhawk struggle. The lien Sphinx and XiDeltas held a fun
eral march for the behea '.el Jayhavk between halves. The class of 1925
added to the excitement by sending he "green headgear" up in smoke.
Ideal weather conditions made the Jcme fast and both teams responded
with spectacular playing. The first quarter opened with Kansas kicking off
to Preston who made a nice return. Wright made a nice gain but Nebraska
fumbled and Kansas recovered the ball A bad pass from center spilled the
dope for the Jayhawkers when Sclio'er picked up the ball and after shak
ing off two Kansas tacklers crossed t! e Jayhawk goal line for the first count
er of the game. Captain Swanson ad.'ed a point by kicking goal.
Nebraska kicked off to Kansas bin the Jayhavks punted after a few un
successful attempts to gain and Nebraska started a march for the Kansas
poal with Wright, HarJley, and Lewcllen carrying the ball. The Huskers
fumbled on the Kansas 15 yard line and the Nebraska eleven had lost a
feood chance for another touchdown After a couple of, exchanges of punts
with the b-'l see-sawing back and foith on the field (ime was called fq
the first quarter with the Kansas eleven in possession of the ball on her
own 43 yard line. Score, Nebraska 7 Kansas 0.
The Huskers scored the second touchdown about the middle of the second
quarter when the line plunging of Hartley and Wright put the ball across
the line. Each team ha 1 the ball about an equal length of time this quarter
and both elevens were forced to punt a number of times. Lewellen outkick
ing McAdams in most instanc es. The Husker machine was working perfect
ly in this period and seemed to have absolute control of the entire offense
cf the Kansans. The deadly aerial attack' of the Kansas athletes failed to
materialize to any great ertent during any period of the game and only a
small number of short pr.sses were completed. The Kansas eleven were
lighting gamely but could not overcome the advantage in weight of the
Huskers. The half finally ended wih the ball in possession of Nebraska on
her own 35yard line. Sc ore. Nebraska H Kansas 0.
The second half started with Noble in for Wright. Wenke booted to Kan
sas and after an exchange of punts the Jayhawkers completed a long pass
end a Kansas touchdown stemed imminent. Nebraska held and the Huskers
ompleted a forward pass which brought the ball within scoring distance of
the Kansas goal. Tlunges by Hartley, and Noble put the ball arross for the
third counter. Captain Swanson kicked goal making the count 21 to 0.
Wenke again kicked off and both teams exchanged punts but time was
c; lied in a short time with Nebraska in possession of the ball on the 40
yard line. Score, Nebraska 21 Kansas 0.
The final quarter was filled with thrills on bolh sides with the aerial at
tack coming into prominence in this period. A pass Jy the Jayhawks which
Captain Swanson intercepted was almost good for a touchdown but the Jay
hawks held on the 1 yard line and punted from behind their own goal line.
Two long end runs by Noble put the b-M within scoring distance and Russell
went over for the final touchdown. Caain Swanson kicked goal and the
game was soon over with Kansas in iwssesslon of the ball in the middle
of the field. Final score Nebraska 2S Kansas 0. Lineups and officials are as
