We'er the boys from Nebraska Our coaches came from Omaha How we tore up Oahoa What'llwe do to foiua. chorus. Tear-ear ear-ear-up their line. Tear-ear-car-ear up their line. Tear-ear-ear-ear up their line. Make a touch down in no time. WE CKLKHUATK. The father receives them to his bosom and kills the fatted calf. When the first news of the K. U. Waterloo, arrived some of the students decided they would do something on the return of our boys. When the Ottawa defeat followed in quick succession, some more students decided to do something and soon everybody even as high as the Chancellor were sure we would hold high jubilee. Thursday morning, chapel was held in the armory instead of in the main building. The opening, as well as the clos ing hymn was the college yell. The first lesson was an extract from the Chancellor's opening letter at the beginning of the current school year; the second lesson was a new dispensation. The collection was for the poor foot ball suits. And the benediction was pronounced by the school upon the Chancellor in three rousing cheers. Tuesday 'night fully seven hundred students were down at the M. P. station when the train pulled in at 7:30. They had their voices along, horns along, colors along, a band along, a coach along. Capt. Dern was the first to alight. He was picked up bodily and thrown on top of the carry-all. The rest followed suit. A rope one hundred feet long was attached and all that could get a hold did so. A calliope in the neighborhood added to the din of band and horns. The cannons bellowed out their welcome to the boys of brawn and sinew. The march was east to the 'Varsity, south to P, around the post office block, east to eleventh and then to" the university gymnas ium. Here the members and wives of the KRIAN. 13 faculty and the winsome co-eds were assem bled to make the 'Leven feel as they never felt before. The youths were perhaps a-trifle dusty but were smiling as ever. The Chan cellor welcomed them in a few well-chosen words. Quoting he said; "It was a Dern good game, for the boys played Fair. And this is no Flip-ant remark." Flippin, Yont, Dern, and Crawford talked as well as they could after howling for two days. Then with a merry hand-shaking all around the meeting stood adjourned. With all it was the most satisfactory and enthusi astic celebration know in university annals. Everyone was pleased with it. As one of the boys remarked, "We expected somebody but not such a turnout as that." Now let us prepare for a repetition after the Iowa game. LOCAL Miss Atkinson has been home for a week.
