Opinions differ, facts do not. Sufllco
it to Hay that KnnsaB Was fairly out
played, whether out-arguod or not.
Tho hinge of tho troublo lay In tho
controversy ovor tho uinplro furnished
by Kansas. Surely tho protest fll'td
by Manager Oury should havo hold,
but when Kansas refused to play un
less tho services of Mr. Klelnhans bo
accoptcd, thoro remained no altorna
tlvo. Kansns forcing tho sorvlces of
Mr. Klolnhans Beems to admit of but
ono Interpretation. Wo might make
sarcastic remarks about what Kansas
wished Nebraska players to do, but
will refrain.
Naturally enough tho Kansas players
woro greatly disappointed. Tho spirit
with which thoy camo was one of per
fect confidence In their ability to beat
Nebraska badly. Tho reaction from
this was, of course, extremely hard to
bear. The conservative spirit which
predominated among Nobraskans
made tho victory doubly a victory.
Tho continued wrangling Is greatly
to bo deprecated. Tho fault plainly
lies with tho officials. A decision once
made should bo rigidly adhered to. A
giving way to argument will result, as
did rpsiiJt Inst Saturday, In almost
every point being disputed. If thj
officials had made tho decisions, rig
idly adhered to them, and called tho
ball In play tho gamo would not have
known this unpleasant feature. The
Kansas authorities In making Ne
braska responsible for this aro en
tirely wrong.
It is to bo hoped that tho proposed
second game can bo arranged. With
eastern officials the contest will bo one
of merit alone. Nebraska has proven
her superiority onco, why not again?
The Nebraskan regrets to mention,
a certain disagreeable feature of last
Saturday's contest. Betting Is neither
honorable nor gentlemanly, and does
anything but roflect credit upon our
alma mater. The remarks by tho
rhancellor were just to tho point.
Surely such scenes and actions ought
never to bo repeated In tho history
of our University. Betting not only
means a degredatlon of pure athletics,
but encourages professionalism and a
sporting class of students. The result
of such methods has been well-nigh
fatal to athletics In many an eastern
Institution. A student's loyalty need
not go so far as to lead him to defend
his team and college by betting. Lot
him be loyal by remembering that
every such case brings dishonor to the
institution which harbors him.
The fact that the State Journal
stands up so nobly for Nebraska's vic
tory Is evidence enough that It Is not
a partisan spirit which denounces the
lnefflnlency of the umpiring of the
Kansas game. In nn nble editorial of
Tuesday's Issue the Journal explains
the conditions which would naturally
lead to such methods as Kansas at
tempted as a means of winning the
gamo. By flaunting their money in
tho faces of Nebraska citizens and
University students tho latter were
forced to bet. Bets were made that
Nebraska wouldn't score. Klelnhans
stepped In when he saw something had
to bo done and ruled Cowglll off tho
field. Kansas methods are as plain
to tho public as they aro to tho Uni
versity students.
Anyone who has had any experience
whatsoever In watching the progress
of foot ball games can seo that the
man KlelnhanB made a dlsplcaple at
tempt to steal tho game from Ne
braska In his decision ruling Cowglll
off tho field. Linesman Wilson do
clared ho did not soo Cowglll slug
when looking right at him. Thrro hid
been no complaint made by Knnsns
players that any slugging wns being
done. No warning wns glvon Cow
glll. It wis simply a cobo of the um
pire sepning In nnd attempting to
prevent Nebraska from scoring.
Tho Kansas players aro loud In their
praises for Klolnhans' work In tb--Iowa-Kansas
game. What need did
Kansas have of an umpire to steal for
thorn hero? Tho samo man ofllclatort
for them against tho llttlo collng of
Marysvlllo and Olnsco. Of courso hlh
work was satisfactory. KlolnliaiiH Is
a Kansas man. Ho Is practically a
Kansas umpire- Thoy doponded upon
him In cobo of an omorg'oncy. Ills
services woro ncodotl and thoy woro
at tho disposal of his friends.
It was not till tho Kansas muckers
persisted In clamoring for bets that
thoy wore accommodated. As a rttlo few
Nebraska students enro to lose their
self-respect by gambling on the result
of. a foot ball gamo. Somo of thorn
responded to taunts at their prldo.
Thoy aro forglvon this time consider
ing tho result.
Coach Woodruff has probably
learned tho value of keeping his mouth
shut. Mayho ho won't do It. But tho
valuo of IiIh utterances for tho KansaB
City Star havo greatly depreciated.
What ho says honcoforth will bo read
moro as a curiosity than a fact.
STAN TOR I) UNIVBHSITY.
A recent numbor of Frank I.esllo's
Monthly contnlns nn Interesting arti
cle upon Stanford Unlvorslty, written
by tho registrar. From It ono readily
gathers that thlH Inrgo university Is
ono vnBt experimentation scheme, In
Which various oxporlmonts In univer
sity governments, educational syBtoms,
corrolatl6n of curricula, etc., aro being
worked nut. In some lines, such as
government of tho unlvorslty, Stan
ford link Introduced hoiiio features
which cohld bo advantageously adopted
by other Institutions. In genernl, how
ever, modt of these experimental novel
ties are lktlo moro than tho direct ex
pression of a prevailing fin do slcclo
tone In tho whole system of Stanford,
which leads It off along too many a
tangent, characterized by unfortunate
educational tendencies. Stanford Uni
versity, If It Is to bo judged by the
statements of ono of its own profes
sors, Is, with its millions of endow
ment, not sufficiently unlike a great
parvanu among universities. Its edu
catlcnal manciples seem "faddish" and
not sound.
Stanford University, slat Ling with
lnrgo revenues and without trouble
some traditions or unfortunate prece
dents, had tho ono opportunity which
no other American university has had
of exemplifying and elaborating that
which Is sound in our present unlvor
slty systems. It la unneccBanry to
point out here what everyone knows,
thnt superficiality is tho banc of our
educational system, nor to show that
this Is merely a corollary of the In
considerate and reckless haste of the
entire nation. When high schools are
striving to become colleges and nro
seeking to Impart a breadth that can
bo recognized only by Its shallowness,
when great eastern universities, In re
sponse to the public's demand for a
ready-made education, talk of shorten
ing the college course, It Is necessary
for those Institutions that havo the
real "light let them be sure it Is not
darkness to walk steadfastly by It."
Suprflclallty In tho masses, dllettnnte
lsm In the few, are tho offspring of
unconcelved educational standards.
Those Institutions which, thinking to
lead the public, aro led by it, are bar
tering educational possibilities and
Ideals for the traditional pottage.
Agreeing, as all must, that "the major
ity Is unsound," education must, with
all essential movements, find Its hope

A mrgo crowd of Nebraska rootcrB
will tlopbiless accompany tho team. A
rato of ono faro for tho round trip will
probably bo mado, so that tho prlco
of tho trip will bo placed within tho
reach of many. To thoso who aro an
ticipating a anap for Nebraska, a word
might bo said right hero. Nebraska
will need all tho rooting which it wilt
bo possible to glvo her. Thoro Is no
expectation that tho Kansas Bcoro will
bo duplicated or anythlnk llko It. Ne
braska will bo satisfied If Bho wins tho
game. Iowa will do anything to wlpo
out that Kansas defeat. Tho Iowa
plnyei'B will bo screwed up to tho top
notch, just as Nebraska was In tho
Kansas game not over confldont, but
dotormlncd to win. But thoy will not
have quite Btioh a swell headed aggre

THE IOWA GAME.
Will Bo Played At Council Bluffs This Year
Good Crowd Promised.
The Inst opportunity which Nebras
ka students will have to seo the home
team play this year will be the great
annual Thanksgiving game between
Nebraska and lowa. For the pat six
years this game lias been plnycd In
Omaha, but this year It has been
changed to Council Bluffs.
There are several reasons for mak
ing this change. In the first place, the
University club which controls1 tho
grounds In Omaha has always mani
fested a somewhat porky disposition
in regard to the division of the gate
receipts. This year, with its accus
tomed generosity, the Omaha club
cheerfully offered to accept as Its share
one-third of the gate recolpts, beside
?50 ns personal expenses for the mana
ger of the club. While Manager Oury
Id not consider theso terms to bo
fair, ho did not like to insist that the
same bo played oleswhere. Tho Iowa
management settled tho matter by
positively refusing to play in Omaha.
In tho second place, the Council Dluffs
iofl Club offered its grounds free of
charge. As there was no reason for
u. uccopung this olfor In preference
to tho Omaha proposition, Council
Bluffs was accordingly Hiosen.
Tho grounds are conveniently locat-
