THE HESP
Where's that song that some Jong haired
Chop-up-bccf-stakus was going to set to music
for the Thanksgiving game?
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.
