Kansas Defense Stubborn.

i lie defense of Kansas was the most itubborn seen here thla year. Outweighed by ths Cornhuskers they fought back with a bulldog tenacity. A number of times their ends crashed through the Nebraska back field and nipped plays In wieir lormatton, and once on Nebraska's gai line the crimson and red broke through and blocked a mint which whs only saved by the quick eye of the ever- yieaenc luroy, Swanson, the ebraska tackle and Har mon, bis veteran mate, played the two best games of the careers. They were powers at breaking through the Kansas one, ana the force of their charare was not easily repelled. Mastln at right end, broke through, but he w.t wntr-heri close ly ny the Jayhawkers and had some difficulty In getting down under punts.

Kansas kept the Cornhuskers worrvlnir more through the difficulty Potter and Frank found In handling the punts of Wilson.

Towle who supplanted Potter In the fnlal quarter, set the disorganized machinery Into motion with the speed he displayed In pulling off the nlavs. Like a crack of whip he called his sianals. and the Nebraskans battled desperately after he took them in chanrge. rareiy and Halllggii were the evenr ready backers to the forwards.

Time and time again they check the Kansas backs when the eluded the line on the shift plays which were used almost exclusively. The offensive play was with that of Harmon and Bwauson the best of the game aside from the lonq: runs of KYanlt and Howard. For Kansas.

Detwllder.

and Stuewe nerh the great part of the Kansas team. These two men did the greater ahare of lugging the ball, and when ever It was necessary to gain a few, yards, Steuwe was vaiiea upon to carry the oval.

An hour before the blowing of Referee Curtis' whistle, the stands were nearly full, neither side of the feld being draped In a mass of color. It could be seen at once that It was the big game of the year, with both sides of rooters voicing thetr yells and cheers in opposition to each other, the famed "Rock-Chalk-Jay-Hawk of the BOO Kansas vleing the barking of the scarlet and cream supporters. Burled In a mass of red and white pennants and seated so as to form a massive bloc the Nehraaka girl section drew the attention of the crowd for the early part of their wait for the appearance of the teams.

The Nebraska rooters formed one flank of the south bleachers and the Kansas supporters shouted back their yells of defiance from the other end of the stand. Moving picture men appeared on the field, and after taking a few pictures of the crowd and the field, took a few films of tha officials' smiles. The Kansas hand, numbering thirty-six pieces moved onto the field at 2 35 playing "The Crimson nnd the Red" tlie Kansas field song. They were garbed In neat khaki uniforms trimmed in white. The Nebraska band moved onto the field fli minutes later, am, followed the Kansas band in a parade around the field.

All three bands paraded the field, halting In front of the rooting sections nnd plnylna the different school songs. The Kansas hand was seated Willi the other two organisations In front of the north stand, but the Kansas rooters would not have It that way.

They repaired to the southwest corner of the field where the coaches rnve the men final Instructions. At 2:53 the Kansas team appeared on the field, and commenced a snappy signal practice.

which they quickly shed and likewise started fast signal practice. Howard punted for a few minutes, while the Kansas men warmed up by passing the ball around. Th Cam In Detail. Kansas won lb toa, and Captain Pumpelly Saves the Day for Blue With a Wonderful Kick "Lefty" Flynn Was Center Princeton Attack Throughout Osborne Field, Princeton, N. Nov.

W. A. Pumpelly, "gubstltut 112' SAvsd Tale from defeat here today by less than the width of the troai post cross bar. The lighter Tiger team had the Eli's down I to and 16,000 blue rooters who came to Princeton confl dent of victory were accep Una; defeat as inevitable when Pumpelly replaced "Lefty" Flynn and dropped back for a drop kick. Standing on the Cfty yard line, he lifted a low swift ball which sailed before a brisk wind directly for the goal; seemed short for a second and then carried onward by the wind, touched the cross bar on the Prince ton goal: wavered a second and dropped over, tieing the score, 6 to 8, 1 lie game was the last of the season for Princeton and so far as the team play went, it was a victory.

"Lefty" Flynn Present.

Lefty" Flynn, Yale's big fullback did much damage in carrying the ball and In punting, but was far less effective than he should have been. Many of nis runs rrom lake formations were stopped short of gain or netted only a few yards because the blue men were a few feet behind when the Tiger secondary defense met him. Aa the game progressed, Hobe Baker, Princeton's left half, subtracted mors and more from the advance which Hynn's long punts had given Yale. Where he had returned the ball five yards or so during the first quarter, Baker was soon running it back 15 yards, doing gome wonderful dodging at times. "Hobe" seemed to pick up steam as the game progressed, becoming more formidable in line plunges from behind a quick shift formation.

Bomelster, Yale's all-Amerlcan and who has been out of the game with a bad shouldder, was shifted from left to right end when Princeton announced that the game would start with Captain Pendleton at left end and H. Bakcf at left half. The two ends fought desperately, Bomelster particularly playing for two or three men. It was often up to Pendleton to stop "Lefty" Flynn's attempted end runs from punt formation. DeWitt's toe work against the Yale kicker was wonderful, considering Bluethenthal's low passes.

DeVVltt picked them off the ground and got away with good puntB time after time, just ahead of the blue linemen as they broke through to bloek the ball. Good Generalship Helps. "Stopping" Yale meant stopping "Lefty" Flynn to the Tigers, and by grace of their wonderful defense, good generalship and the devotion of three or four men to the task at all tlmej, they did It. Unless Yale can develop a system of play that will protect and aid the big; fullback, football fans believe Harvard will win next Saturday at New Haven. students, the most optimistic supporters of their team In the-coun-try, were venturing tonight as they rode homeward that they "were Inclined to bet even money that Harvard does not win.

1 Pennsylvania, always known for its sensational surprises In football, pulled off the greatest of the season when It tamed tho Carlisle Indian aggregation In one of the most remarkable games In the history of the game by a scorn of 34 to 26. In every way the game was remarkable, Pennsylvania's work being repetition of Its performance against Mlchlran last week. In that game Fenn came from behind and by a grand exhibition of offensive play, tallied four touchdowns In the last thirty minutes of play, winning In the final thirty geconds. Thla afternoon the Indiana came behind Penn, only to lose out through a whlrwlnd flniah of th red and blue. Jim Thorpe, the all around athleta, whose playing was the featurq of the day, was unfortunate enough to make the fumble which paved the way for Penn'a vlotory- Thorpe had previously made an eighty yard run through a broken field for a touchdown and had been responsible for every one of the red skin scores.

Captain Mercer starred for Penn. It was his forward, pass to Jourdot that put Penn in the lead with only five minutes to play, and It was a brilliant dash around the end, a few ntlnutna later which gave Penn Its final gcore.

AFTEROPERATION Champion Will Carry Dare to Home of His Opponents (By W. W. NAUQHTON) Ban Krnnclsco. Nov. It, Light weight champion.

Ad Wolgast came to town to day looking as chipper and confident as ever. Whatever doubts the wise heads of sportdom may entertain In. regard to Wolgaat ruggednesa the little pugilist does not seem to be troubled that la otn as good as ever. He says that he made but one mistake and that was when be agreed to risk lila champlniiHhlp In a match with Joe Kivers too soon nfter lng operated on for appendicitis. It turned out all right, however and since that time Wol-gust claims to have tested himself thor oughly.

He believes now that he has fully recovered from the effects of his operation and there is little fear of anyone relieving him of his crown. That the light weight king; really feels the way he speaks Is mada evident hy the plans he has formed. He says he will box Manilot nnd any other challenger that may crop up after the Thanksgiving 150. Then he will make a gland tour of the world carrying his cliamplonahlu to the very doors of the foreign light weights and; daring them to take it from him. It may be that Wolgast will box at his quarters at Seal Km House tomorrow.

In any case the coming week will see him settled down to the urlnd of preparation. He says the various boxing contests he has engaged In dining the Inst few months have placed him In condition. Furthermore he hos had sev eral days of work Ht Doyles Vernon quar ters in Angeles. Feeling; that he has plenty of time (n which to place himself In the best of shape, he may relax to the extent of enjoying a eounle of davs duck shooting before taking up his regu lar routine.
