TIPS FROM THE ni.KACIIKKS.
Did you see the "hot manager' smile?
Woogh!!! Those speaking trumpets!
The crowd was estimated at from 1500 to
2000.
Six touch downs and Shedd never missed
a goal.
Organized rooting was not only a feature
it was half the excitement.
However his 25-yard goal kick makes us try
to forget the fumbles.
Turner. Hansen and Stringer are not grand

which did some good systematic rooting.
The Kappa Alpha Thetas had a neatly dec
orated box in the center of the bleachers.
The scarlet and cream were sufficiently in
evidence but where was the Uni. yell?
The officers were: Piatt, of Kansas, referee;
Thorpe, umpire; Townley and Denny, time
keepers.
Co. B seemed to have the favorite yell.
The author of this yell refuses to reveal his
identity.
Thanks to Roscoe Pound for his timely as

Cowgill made three inexcusable fumbles,

In a room up stairs fortunes were
told to small groups. This being a new plan
of fortune-telling, many new things were dis
covered in the futures of the participants.
From time to time during the evening the
hostess piloted small parties of a half dozen

tried until refreshments were brought in.
Baked apples and cream -were followed by
nuts and apples. The apples were again

sang the favorite college songs. The time had
passed so rapidly that it scarcely seemed time
to bid the hostess goodnight though the clock
told us differently.
