Kansas Rallies in Last Half and Holds Cornhuskers to Tie
Spectacular Forward Passing by
. Mandevillc and Londbers Turns
Trick Against Nebraska Eleven
Lawrence, Kan., Nov. 13. Outplayed in every depart
ment of the game in the first half, the University of Kansas
foot ball team made a sensational rally in the last half and
battled the University of Nebraska to a 20-to-20 tie this aft
ernoon. Spectacular forward passing by Mandeville and Lond
berg did the trick. At the outset, both players failed to make
a showing. Time after time they tried the aerial attack only
to have the stands groan as the play was blocked. In the third
period they seemed to find themselves, however, and after
the first touchdown it was easy. They passed seemingly at
will and for long gains.
The first period was noted for in
complete forward passes and nu
merous penalties. Nebraska work
ed its way steadily down the field
until the ball was on Kansas' 40
ard line. Dale then skirted the
Kansas end for 30 yards, hit the1
center of the line and raced across
for a touchdown. Day kicked goal.
Spectacular line plunges by Dak
featured the play during the second
period. Early in the period Nebras
ka moved down the field to the Kan
sas five-yard line, where smashes by
Dale carried it across. Cjnptain Day
J'J?d goal. It was Nebraska's ball
uithe center of the field when a for
ward pass, Hartley to Swanson, net
ted 43 yard3 end Swanson took the
bail over for Nebraska's second
touchdown of the period.
Kansas scored in the hird pe
riod. After failing to mike three
orward passes, Mandville and
Londbcrg completed one on Nebras
ka's 19-yard line and the ball was
taken over for a touchdown. Jdande
ville kicked goal. During the re
mainder of the period neither side
bad a chance o score and the quar
ter ended with the ball in Nebraska's
possession on her 42-yard line.
Kansas scored another teuichdown
in the first Jew minutes of play of
the final period, when Mandeville
ind Londberg worked across anoth
er successful pass on Nebraska's 18
yard line. Mandeville kicked goal.
J Kansas began taking the ball down

Work of Dobie One
Feature of Season
Former Pacific Coast Foot
Ball Coach Developed Strong
Team at Cornell.
' New York', Nov. 13. The work of
Gilmour Dobie, loot ball coach at
Cornell university, will stand out as
one of the great features of the 1920
gridiron campaign.
The canny Scot went to Ithaca in
September to ttke over the task of
building a foot ball machine capable
of renewing the glory that once made
the Red and vh-.te among the most
tearcd teams in the country. The ma
tcrial that Dobie started with was
for the most part green, but his
greatest handicap was unquestion
ably the state of demoralization jn
which the mentor found all things
pertaining to foot ball at Ithaca.
It is hard to say what policy Dobie
followed except that he taught the
Cornell squad sound foot ball. -After
a slow start, the Itliacans exhibited
power in their second game against
St. Bonaventure colleee and each
succeeding week since that time has
found the Cornell eleven - mightier
in offense and defense.
inis week sees the L-ornellians
idling vjiic ui tut: aiiuuat lectins in
the east. The former Pacific coast
mentor who came east to coach the
eleven of the United States Naval
academy several years ago has the
Sappy faculty of keeping his men
ard at it and at the same time in
the seeming pink of condition week
after week. His personality is such
that the players strive with all they
have to "deliver.' Dobie is com
pelling. Lately iie has sad his boys
out at night practic behind closed
crates
Dobie has installed six electric
light projectors on each side of the
field to illuminate the entire ground.
WilKeHoppeWill
Develop "Line Nurse"
t In all of Willie Hoppe's exhibi
tion matches from now on he intends
to devote considerable attention to
the development of the "line nurse."
He will do this with one object in
view. When he defends his world's
balkline billiard title in the final
round of the national tournament to
he staged under the direction of R.
B. Benjamin at the Hotel Astor in
New York City on Dec. 6, 1 and 8
the champion intends to try to shatter
all existing records,. His unofficial
highrun record is 622 points. His
official record, which is also the
world's record, is 308. Last year he
established a grand average for six
games of 400 points each of 47 3-51
which is the record. In an individual
game in last year's championship
tournament he made an average
of 80.
While on tour during the season
of 1919-1920 Hoppe played a total of
45,000 points.' He averaged a frac
tion better than 55. Hoppe is de
termined to try to run out one of
the 400 point matches in the coming
tournament in one inning.

Referee's Method
Out Boxer
New York, Nov. 13. (Special.)
The "system of counting off the sec
onds by the referees in local clubs
is so antiquated that it is most sur
prising that a more modern method
has not been introduced. Very few
of the current crop of arbiters can
make the right count on a boxer
when he is knocked down. This is
a serious condition, especially if a
championship title is at stake. 1
The writer remembers very well
the night that this moss covered pro
cedure cost George Chip his chance
to regain the middleweight cham
pionship, which Jie had previously,
lost to- Al McCoy, when the latter
unbuckled a left-handed swing and
robbed George of his crown in the
very first round.
Referee Delays Counting.
Chip begged or a return bout,
which was arranged at the Broadway
Sporting club in Brooklyn. In this
fight Chip gave the accidental cham
pion an awfui beating and about the

National league club is the first ma

"I have Rlvon much thought to the

"The base ball ,war is on again
and off again like the president's hat
in an inaugural parade. Ban John
son has come cut of his hunger
strike and is being forcibly fed on
the Lasker plan. Both leagues are
with Ban to a man. The ash man.
We are glad that Ban is not go
ing to be staked to the exist nearest
h:m. Ban has been with base ball
for many summers and winters, but
base ball has not always been with
him. He started as an honest news
paper man among 'other honest
newspaper men He gradually out
grew his pals. He has taken the
best that is in base ball and given
it generously to himself. Ban
hasn't allowed his prosperity to go
to his head. Some of it is in the
back of his neck, but he keeps his
noodle as clear as the Mississippi in
springtime.
Ban Helps His bellow Man Out
The. Door.
He helps his fellow men. Out the
door. He is net a plutocrat. He is
as democratic as cafeteria. Tn fact,
he has modelled his base ball career
on this humhle and proletarian in
stitution. The cafeteria. Self serv
ice. His threat to put a team in Mil
waukee was actuated by a laudable
dpre that some day Milwaukee
would' put his marble dome in the
Hall of Foam. When he threatened
to invade Japan with his league, it
was done' more to scare 'the Japs
than anything else.
Being czar of base ball is not a
carpet of roses. They are too many
carpet . beaters around. Traitors
have tried to start a' new league in
li'20. A stunt which wasn't treach
ery in 1900. Nor in 1776. But Ban
has m.-ygnanimously forgiven the
outlaws and is willwg to embrace
them in the benevolent folds of his
friendly manicured talons.
Athlete 'Can Now Pray With One
Eye on Pillow. ,
. The base ball war is over and
once again peace and bribes descend
upon the land. The athlete can say
his prayers at night with one eye
the pillow'. The grand jury can
retire to the locked suite and pon
der over all the justice and equity
contained in a pinochle deck. The
rambler can bribe the boys with the
free spirit and the unburdened con
science of the honest man who has
jumped his bail.
The war is over. The century
plryits can bloom, cows moo con
tentedly on the hillside and little
children can tlock to school know
ing that the black clouds have burst
away and the base ball sun is again
shining on the back of Ban's neck,
wnere each bead or perspiration
glistens like a pearl.
It 'doesn't seem enough.
