LAWRENCE, Kan., Nov. 17. Nebraska University's football eleven
earned a 13 to 3 victory over the University of Kansas team here today,
the latter team crumbling before the
Nebraska onslaught in the third
quarter after having outplayed their
opponents and having led them in the
scoring, 3 to 0, up to that time.
The game was the second and last
the Nebraska team will play with
Missouri Valley Conference teams and
gives them a clear-c- ut
title to the
championship.
Throughout the first half the Kansas line held well and the offensive
playing of the Kansans excelled, encouraging the Kansas rooters to hope
for a victory. But in the third period

and they tried the aerial tactics that

nine forward passes attempted by the
Kansans was completed. The manner
in which the Kansas line repelled the
assaults and the Kansas backs found
holes for good gains was the surprise

In the third quarter Kansas gained
89 yards Nebraska's yards and
made four first downs Nebraska's
three. The tide was turned when
