Lawrence, Kan, Nov. 15.-Apparemily showed under hopelessly. the University OF Kansas football team forward passed and battered Ne braska to a 20 to 20 tie here Satuday. But for a missed goal after touchdown the Kansas rally would have meant victory in one OF the most spectacular games in Missouri valley football history. Nebraska’s chances to win also faded with failure to kick goal. This happened on the Cornhuskers’ last touchdown. made in the second period, and from that time on the advantage was entirely with Kan sas. The forward passing Of Mandevile and Lonberg made possible the Kansas rally and was largely instrumental in netting the points. In the early periods they were unable to make their passes and time after time the play was blocked. However, after the first Kansas touchdown in the third quarter they passed successfully almost at will. The tying score came in the last five minutes Of the game, when after a pass Vaudeville raced 80 yards and crossed the goal. Sandifur failed, to kick goal. Dale and Newman shone for the visitors. the plunging line smashes of the former being brilliant. Dale took the ball over in the opening minutes of play for the first Nebraska touchdown and repeated the performance in the sec Ond quarter.
