AKTKIt Till: HATTI.K.
The gridiron is a barren waste
The bleachers stand and yawn
The ditches yet half gore-tilled trace
Where tunny a bloody light was on.
A limb, ahead, some cast-oil' brains
And here and theie a cast iron shield.
Or Kansas sheet-iron pad remains,
And bets "refunded" dot the Held
High o'er that Held a penn.mt waves
With not a stain its folds to mar:
And Woodruff on athletics raves
In the columns of the K C. Star.
Wave on proud pennant in your pride,
The world of pure athletics tell!
We'll cuss "Doc" Woodruff on the side
The while he "practices" in Kansas City.
WANTKD A MAN (NIT!).
I used to think in the reign of Jones
We needed a full grown man
To crack some skulls imd break sonic bone.-.,
Thus to devise a plan
To squelch once more
That deafening roar
In the Library.
It. needs a regiment to quite restore
Oli how my first thought sadly failed
The peace and quiet of the days of yon;
Where a full-grown man has failed
To squelch once more
That deafening roar
In the Library.
How doth the little football boys
Improve the shining hours;
And dig, and dig, and dig, and dig
To 'pease uufrendl.v v-ow'rs.
The (.J reeks are plunged in civil war
About the Junior "prom"

While Sparta thinks her various braves
Are all the men there are;
And every one of them has hitched
His wagon to a star.
