Kansas, there lh only one way in which I can explain that 24-0, and that is that Nebraska was loaded only to stop Pennsylvania system and was unprepared to break up the Yale formation of the Medics. Even after all, Nebraska won the west ern league penman beyond dispute, but here she stopped for after the Kansas game she was beaten twice by Drake and Iowa and can lay no claim to the western championshrip. This Kansas can do, for 6he came through the Nebraska game a new team bet ter than before, like a giant freshed with wine. Kansas played simply irresistably after that. The com partitive scores of Kansas ami Ne braska against Missouri show nothing, as tho condition of the field at Kansas City on Thanksgiving tiny made a large score impossible. The Kansas-Nebrasha game on Nov ember 5 was undoubtedly one of the greatest contests ever seen on a west ern gridiron. Nebraska played mag nificently and Kansas died game until mo last, l believe that Kansas ougiu to have won. Of course I am expected to say that anyway, but in all honesty 1 think it. The reason we were defeat ed was, in the first place, Ilnmill had to leave early in the game and there wis no one to take his place and be cnuse, secondly, wo did not have the right backs in that game. Our backs played that day after the ancient and honorable order of wooden men. They ran up ngainst the line and stopped, and, in fine, did every tiling they ought not to hnvc done and nothing they ought to have done. If we had put iu Fisher, Buzxi and Silvers, I believe the result would have been different; they work together so much bettor. I don't think, with the exception of Captain Mel ford, at whom I -am forced to throw a bouquet, that the Nebras ka line was so strong as ours, but Ne bi islcn has two backs in Benedict n.nd Erwin who are staTS of the first mag nitude. But that is all over now, and Nebraska won on her merits and by her men, but later in the season tho result might have been different. Kansas will beat Nebraska next year. It will be her turn and she will have the same team, excepting Ham- iU and mvanlf. T would like to see Iowa In the league again. We can't wing any other of tho larger umver- '"lies, as they are too far away ana tlie expense too great. I want ito see Kansas and Nebraska have a nice Same in Lincoln next year free from the disgraceful scenes which charac terized the '97 game, for that kind of thing hurts football and we can't af ford to do that. Wo had a nice gamo at Lawrence this year and I did every thing in my power to moke It so, and I ask next year's Nebraska captain to do the same and to bring about the continuation of the good feeling which now exists and which I hope will al ways exist between the universities of Kansas and Nebraska, ARTHUS ST. LEGLE MOSSE. Captain of Kansas, 'OS. GIRLS' BASKET BALL. The young women's basket ball teams arc not yet, all of them, fully or ganized, but probably will be by the The personnel of the first and! sec ond teams, tho "crack" teams, will not be much changed. The first team has lost Bertha DuTeil, Marie Beach, and Helen Welch, who are not in school; but there remain, of tho old players, Marie Kennedy, the team's tall guard, Harriet Cooke, who will prdbnbly play forward this year, Hose Long, who cap. talned the second team last year and played in various positions on the first team, and Louise Pound', center, who has been re-elected captain for 1898-99. Tho vacancy in the positloni of guard and endurance, and is doing faultless work ds guard. Both tho first and' sec ond teams will play with five on a side 'hence forth, instead of six, and will play by the men's rules, which give chance for a rougher and! more furious game. Among the new players, who will be prominent in the class teams and) two or three of whom will achieve tho sec ond team ani honor much to 'bo de sired., for it is the games of tho first and second teams which are swiftest, most fiercely fought, and1 tho best KjSQ throw well, play with enthusiasm, and use their height to good) advantage. Miss Guile, who distinguished; herself In the girls' pentathlin contest of last spring, promises to do equally well to basket ball. Little Miss Gregory is an active, an excellent player, though, this ia her first season, and may be ex- puuieu to uo wen, among the midgets, or wherever else she may play. Tho class teams and the midget teams will play, as before, y tho Smith college rules, which do not allow knocking of tho ball from the hand, and do much' toward eliminating roughness. Many prefer this game since it makes possible more concerted work and team play, and minimizes the number of scrimmages. The great handicap for girl's basket ball this year is" that there is no time for playing. The 300 or so girls tak ing gymnasium work need the armory every moment of the few hours a week when it can be placed at their disposal, so imai it is impossible to secure timo or opportunity for much 'basket ball. For a while some of the most enthus iastic' endeavored to secure a hall somewhere outside, where the teams could play, but his had to 'bo given up oeoause no 'nail couia be lound' with ceiling of tho necessary height. Tho weakest feature of tho play this year will be goal throwing, throwing from the foul lines, since there will be little chance for players to be trained in this. it Is hoped that there will be a con test before tho end of the semester, be tween the crack team and some out side tenm. The gamo scheduled with Northwestern was cailled1 off early in the year. The Northwestern players were defeated1 'by four or five high schools, in and around Chicago, were defeated in every game they played, hence the wisdom of their coming west seemed doubtful.

The class teams have elected captains, and the papular and celebrated "Mlugets" aro again on hand, and may be expected1 to put up on article of ball not Inferior to last year's. Almost all of the star mid gets of last year are back, and there is new midget material whloh seems full of promise. or forward will bo filled from, last year's second team. Of 'the second team, Misses Dal&y Bonnell and Mabel Dempster are nit in basket ball this year. The others, Ida Taylor, Anna Trltch, Beonora Mil ler, and Louise Hartzell, play a swifter and better game than ever. Especially Ida Taylor, who has gained inl activity sjort are Inez Rosa and Caroline Cook as guards, Bessie Brown, Lulu West, and Nella Cochrane as forwards, Min nie Guile, Katherlne faedgewick, Mar gery WJnger, and many others. Miss Rosa does very swift and persistent work as guard, and ranks well with older players, though, this is her first season. Miss Cook and Miss Brown -lAAAAjj, 80 years BHk, EXPERIENOC.
