I Huskers Prepare for Next Contest Work in Secret Behind Lock ed Gates in First Practice. Lincoln. Nov. 5.—Nebraska began Us last week of preparation for Notre Dame behind locked gates. Monday evening. When Head Coach Dawson rules everybody out, there were no excep ilons—sportwriters, fans with writ ten permission to attend secret prac tice and all the rest were excluded, j Coach Dawson got back Monday lirotn South Bend, where he saw Noire Dame measure Purdue. 34 to 7, Saturday. "Floe line hasn't a football team. He bus an army. He sent in six teams. ,lnd they all looked sweet. But 1 still believe we can beat them,” Coach Dawson said. So say that Coach Dawson was merely impressed by the showing of Notre Dame, judging by his demeanor when he began telling about them, would be like describing Niagara Halls ns cute, and the Grand Canyon :is neat. • And a special dispatch from South Bend intimates that Coach Rockne was not at all pleased with the show ing of the Irish against Purdue. He thinks he erred in permitting them lb take things easy the week before the Purdue game. Reading between the ylines. it might be asscumed that this week i 11 he a fairly busy one for the Irish. And. realizing the gigantic task be fore the Cornhuskers, Coach Dawson will undoubtedly redouble his efforts lji whip them into shape for tlje b|g test Saturday. The re is considerable talk about a wet field working to the advantage of i be Huskers in that it might slow down those impeccable Irish. Be that ig it may. if Captain Lewellen can win the toss and the Huskers are able nj stave off the visitors until they get to the point where they see for themselves that" the Notre Datne play el's. like all others, are only human ftj spite of the paen of praise which lifts been sung for them, the length ahd breadth of the land, then will rente that confidence which may sur prise a great many of the so-called Wiseacres. 'The Saturday game is attracting one of the greatest crowds in the his tory of the grill spore at Nebraska. There are st.ll tickets left, hut judging from the rate they are going, there will he none lyft for sale Saturday. Walter Eekersail of Chicago will referee the game with II. G. Hedges. Hartmouth. umpire; B. L. McCreary, Oklahoma, field judge and Jay Wyatt. Missouri, head linesman.

Jack Rnault Prwes Fighter ■Jack Renault, by knocking out >ioyd Johnson, a bulldog In garneness oild aggressiveness, had the two fold satisfaction of proving he is not faint hearted. Many wondered if he were. Perhaps Renault's poor fights against Billy Mlske and Gene Tunney are at tributable to his not being "right.” His knockouts of George Godfrey, Fred 4P'ulton and "Tiny" Herman, and now Johnson, would seemingly argue so. Race Ends in Dead Heat Buenos Aires, Nov. 5.—The running of the Carlos Pellegrini stakes, valued af 50,000 pesos, resulted in a dead heat here yesterday between Don J’Scdllla and Moved.zo.

COMING GRID CONTEST CLIMAX OF 1923 SEASON I IB roads, paths and byways lead to Lincoln this week-end where the annual Notre iMme - Nebraska football same will be played Satur day afternoon be (ore wnat is ex pected will be the largest crowd that has ever attended i contest at Lin coln. Coach K n u t e Rockne's Notre Dame gridsters have beat cream of the eastern and southern football world. The South Bend team is noted as a wonder. Last year Nebraska beat Notre Dame be fore thousands of fans. Saturday Notre Dame will take th* field favo rite to trim the Huskerg. Tickets are silling fast. The new Nebraska stadium will be crowded by game time, judging from the interest already shown in the coming dash. While the Honkers are battling Notre Dame, Creighton will he plat ing the Michigan Aggies at East Lansing, Midi. Creighton came out of the Haskell Indian contest Sat urday ill preity fair condition. Coach Chef Dynee lias a busy week mapped out for the scpiad in the lyay of aerial drills. The team leaves Thursday for Chicago. Drake university of Des Moines looms up as the strongest team in the Missouri Valley conference. The Bulldogs trounced their old rivals, Ames, 21 to 0, before 11,000 fans Saturday. Drake leads the Valley standing with two victories and no defeats or tie games. Missouri, after holding Nebraska to a tie score, came back Saturday end defeated the Kansas Aggies, 4 to 2. Drake meets Coe eollege Saturday and its remaining two conference games are with firinnt II and Okla homa, and should result in easy Victories for the Bulldogs, thus giv ing them a elean slale to the con ference championship, Irimng the Omaha high schools this week-end three learns play hi the city, while South goes to Fre mont for its annual game. Central and Kearney pla> Friday afternoon in the first game of a double-header at Creighton field. The Fiirpie should win from tile outstaters, as Kearney isn’t repre sented hy a iery strong clnen this season, while Central is regarded ns about til estrongest team in tile state. Tech plays Creighton In the second game Friday. It should be a good battle, with.Tech the favorite to eop. Notre Dame Goes on Forever As the Saturdays slip on In lapse in time, Notre Dnrhe is grandly ap proaching the perfect thing in foot i ail, an all-conquering record. Three more games—Nebraska. Butler. Car negie Teeh—are yet to be bent in to* make the perfect whole. But Notre Dnnie should he an odds on fa vorite to do it. Year after year now Notre Dame has amazed by the regularity with which splendid teams have been turn ed nut. Other colleges rise and fall on the football firmament, hut Notre Dame goes on and on. Many wonder why it Is. In short, the word loyalty might answer. Throughout the midwest and elsewhere Catholic priests and others are on the lookout for talent. And who wouldn't like to play foot ball for Notre Dame? Then, the paramount Important there, of course, Is the expert eoaehing of Knute Itockne, who has something of an all year-round system for the Inculcating of his fine knowledge. And HocVno works without a eon tract, and the athletic hoard works with him as though he had one. That's loyalty of the ninth degree. Hawkeye Grid Coach Author IOWA CITY, IA„ Nov. 5.—loach Howard ,1. Jones of the Slate Cnlversity of Iowa football team, who lias produred within the . last five years football aggregations at that Institution which have won one big western conference football title, lied for another, defeated Notre Dame and Yalp, and attracted Interest and attention from the en tire football world, has now turned author. , Coach Jones has just written a boob on “How to Coach and flay Football,” a booh toll of “Inside informal ion” on gridiron methods and tael Ira. Mr. Jones takes Into Ids writing the same methods he uses on the fool hall field and in his frequent football "chalk talks" to the team. He points out the essential need of a "football bead” and shows that complete knowledge of the game is often more »f an asset Ilian uiueli weight and speed." C’y HP*: "Now Is the season when (he big league clubs go oil touring soil even the corn is shocked.” Zev to Start in Another Race Chicago, Nov. 6.—Zev, defeated world's champion 3 year old, will start Iti at least one more race this year, Harry F. Sinclair, his owner, an nounced here today. He said that It was possible that My Own might start In a race with Zev before the season ends, Mr. Sinclair reiterated hts state ment made after the victory of In Memorlam over Ills horse at IsMnnta. that for one day at least Zev had met a better 3-year-old. “Zev never looked better to me than he did before Saturday's race," he said. “He came out of It In good Condition and I have no excuses to ofTer.” - I The performance of "Red” Orange came up to the fondest expectations of his llllnl worshippers. When “Red” crossed the line for his 10th touchdown this season he also gave Illinois the lead In the Rig Ten race. Chicago tried seven posses against Illinois and not one worked until the one that Orange speared and galloped F,f> yards with Is counted. Coach Stagg will spend this week getting the Maroons In shape for their game with the Hoosiers. Michigan kept their record Inlari by defeating lown, » to 3, more by luck than anything else. The Tnwans are the only team that has scored on the Wolverines this fall. As expected Minnesota ran North western rngjfed, but in doing so they lost their little fullback, Oster, who mnv he mlt for the remainder of the season with s sprained shoulder. Northwestern showed the old punrli when It scored twice on the Oophers. The Purple eleven meets laike For rest next Saturday and Purdue the following week. Notre Ihune came through with its usual win. drubbing Purdue, 34 to 7. The Boilermakers gavn Rncknc's out fit a battle In the first half, but In the hist two periods Notre ltartie ran wild.

JOHNNY CORRIDEN SIGNS CONTRACT WITH BOOSTERS I Fred Luderus and Jack Lelivelt May Return to Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Respectively, but Nothing Definite Has Been Announced—Burch May Manage Omaha Buf loes Next Summer—Not After Denver Club. By "WAG” HAT will be the lineup of Western league managers next season? Judging from the trend of gossip from the various league members, the only pilot who is sure of his job with the same club next season, or at least of whom definite announcement has been made of his re engagement, is Johnny Corriden at Des Moines. Corrtden enjoyed his first season as a manager this year and earned plenty of credit for being a peppy little general. The Dps Moines fans like Corriden and that is enough. Another 1923 manager is pretty sure of his Job w next season. He Is Fred I„uderus: husky Fred, who piloted the. Oklahoma City Red Skins to a championship. While no definite announcement has been made regarding the 1924 manager of the Indians it is almost certain that Luderus will steer the Red Skins at^iund the circuit next summer. rne situation right here in Omaha is kind uf on the fenre. Barney Burch, owner of the team, may manage the club himseir, thereby releasing Kd Konetrhy, who piloted the Buffaloes this year. However, Burrh may deride lo keep Konetehy at the head of his team, but we doubt it. Kddie Tracy, the new owner of the Saints. Is still casting about for a t»am bosa. The situation >vas livened by the fact that Paddy Bauman, for mer Tulsa second sacker, has^applied for the Job. Bauman was selected as an all-star Western league Infielder as well as a slugger. Besides that, he is a vet eran and has .plenty of diamond knowledge. Whether he can handle ball players—a very ticklish job—is another question. IJlck Breen, former Des Moines, Oklahoma City and Sioux City man ager, and Ducky Holmes, are others who have applied for the St. Joseph job of manager. There is no question hut what Jack Is-livelt can return to Tulsa aa manager. A report was circulated not long ago that Jack had signed a 1924 contract. We read In a Tulsa paper where l^livelt refused to sign until next spring, tadivelt has spent two seasons in Tulsa, winning the pennant his first turn and finishing second this season. There isn't any truth in the report that Barney Burch may buy Milton Anfenger's baseball holdings in Den ver and move Leiivelt in there as his manager. Ask Burch if he expects to do that and he will let out a yell that will echo across the Missouri. ■'I lost enough money with the Buf faloes this season and couldn't buy a knot hole In the Denver park,” says Barney. . The Denver )oh will he open to any ambil intis manager. It's a cinch Hilly Gilbert, the graduate of John McGraw’s school, will not be hack. Denver fans want and de serve a team that Is up in the running from the start. The city is large enough lo support a good team and will support it, providing the club plays good hall. Frank Isbell hasn't decided as to whether Pop Gregory will return as manager of the Wichita Witches. Gregory didn’t do a had job this sea son and the Wichita fans seem to be back of Pop, which means a lot these days. The situation is pretty much mud dled at Sioux City. Frank Metz had difficulty In getting the Packers to playing in top form and in mid season he was traded to St. Joseph for Ar thur Olson. Eddie Pander, second baseman, then was made manager of the Sioux City club. However, It would not be a bed guess that neither Palmer nor Metz will tie at the helm In Bootown next season. A lot of this talk about the Sioux City franchise being moved to Kansas City has dropped off. The chances are (here will he a change in the league roll call before next spring, but what the change will he Is not known at this time. EASTERN UORSESPflOVEMEniE Oil SOUTHERN RACE TRICKS By I'niyenal Servlet. EW York, Nor. & — A homo may have fame in old Kentucky the richest land of thor oufjnnreii rum petition and lore; gome star may arte* ' in the rank* of the poorest kind of money hunter* In Havana, New Orleans or far Tia Juana. But when that horse comes east, or dinarily. he gets little notice, among the sprightly sons and daughters of the forelgn-bred, the eastern studs of New York stnte, Msryland, Canada amt Virginia. Kentuckians and oth ers. nettled at such action find solace often In a victory and a long price. Many times climatic and track conditions mitigate sadly against these stars of other parts. Invading Jockeys, too. know the snubs. Kings and prince* among their fellows, elsewhere, even appren tice* try to give them the laugh, par ticularly on metropolitan track*. The star* of the pigskins have a way of keeping them in their place*." These place*, famous riders here abouts would say. are back In the rear. The east has been crowing a long time now. Eastern horse*, owned by ca»t£^n stables, have won all the b g fixtures. They have been going to Kentucky to win the classic Derby, to the continued chagrin of Bhiegrass folk, it mattered not that some of these horse* wire bred and reared in Kentucky; their *ilks were those of Invaders, and the east exulted in victories, claimed a* their very own And now In Memoriam, a strictly Kentucky product, ridden by Mack Darner, apprentice rider of Kentucky tracks, decisively ha* beaten the far sung Zev, piloted by Earl Sande, king of American rider*. who achieved hi* fame mainly In the east. Kentuckian* are hospitable and polite but they are now laughing in their sleeve. They are roaring out loud. MICHIGAN AND NOTRE DAME KEEP PACE BY WINNING X»w York. Nov. R.— Postmortem evidence, furnished by the footbal returns of the past week-end, show that Mltchlgan. Notre Dame, Yale Cornell, Syracuse and Illinois remain the front runners In the field of na tlonal activity. Chicago, Pennsylvania State, Dartmouth and California were adjudged guilty of mlsrepregen tatlon but In the case of Wisconsin. W. and J and Minnesota, ths Jury Is still out. Chicago was virtually eliminated from further consideration as a P°> Slide mlddlewestrrn champion when It finished second to the Illinl. a wonderfully fast outfit featuring one flrnnge, top scorer of the Dig Ten. Michigan and Noire Dame stuck with the pace by disposing of Iowa and Purdue respectively, but Penn State faded out before the running attack of Syracuse and California lost mate, nationally, by getting no heller than a score stand off with Nevada This result can mean only one of fwo thing*, to wit: F.lther Nevada has quite a football team or Cal ifornia lacks the punrh of other year*. In any ra«e, the Hears must now give additional proof that ttiey belong. The most Impressive team* In tin east, at this writing, are Cornell, d ale and Syracuse, named In the order of their present worthiness llandplrked schedule or otherwise. Cornell silenced all adverse com ment In running up S! points on a Dartmouth eleven, fresh from a vic tory over Harvard and until that moment undefeated. It looks like another Cornell year, with only Pennsylvania In the offing. The Pennsylvania team is coming on rapidly, but probably will be sev eral jumps removed from adequacy for such a test as Cornell can and will offer, Yale was a second half team against the army, and the Impetus of that rally should earry right on through to the end of the schedule. If Yale does not heat Harvard and Princeton this year. It might Just as well turn Its attention to canoeing and the finer arts: something big snd clean, for example, like washing an elephant. Yale Is surety due. Syracuse added to a fine record hy heating Penn State and kept Its goal line Inviolate, a record equalled only i hy Wisconsin, Michigan and Call j fornla. The Orange seems to have ! been one of the lies! defensive outfits In the country, and in the light of after events, may have even more. Minnesota kept In the running out west hy out scoring Northwestern hut the Onpherw seem to be a trifle short of the ability of such teams ss Illi nois.

There are only two topics of con versation now. The fight between Miske and Brennan Wednesday night at the Auditorium and the coming conflict between Nebraska and Notre Dame. Of the two It seems hard to tell which will develop the greater inter est. The Billy Miske-Bil! Bret\nan fracas looks mighty good to the inhabitants of fistiana. Both men have fought good boys in days gone by and have given creditable accounts of them selves. Both pack a terrible wallop Biid both are well versed in the science of boxing. To say the least the bout should have a lot of interest for the fans. Coach Dawson of Nebraska has just i eturned from looking over the fast Notre Dame aggregation and reports his impressions of the team. His chief utterance wag that he be lieves that Knute Rockne has no team. Just an army. Rockne hag six first teams among bis string ot players and substitutes. Dawson declares. Yet Dawson adds that he thinks Nebraska can win the football game. He should know it. He is pretty familiar with his material and has now seen what South Bend has to offer. Coach Schmidt of Centtal High school is planning on giving his charges an opportunity of seeing some fast football played. He is to take his entire team to Dimoln for the game Saturday. Harry Sinclair still has unbounded faith In the ability of his prime 3-year-old to win races. He has an nounce that Zev will make at least one more start this season. Another weighty remark that Sin clair made was that Zev never looked better to him than just before last Saturday’s race. He wasn't alone there. SevertU others thought Zee would win. and plac'd the content* of the family sock on tlieic judgment. Tanforan reports that the race meeting at that track is going over big. despite the absence of betting. They fail to state, however, whether or not there is betting away from the track. Jat k Dempsey now tell* why he moved from his spacious home in I.o* Angele* and took a small apart ment. It was the same old *tory of the cook ruling the home. Jack's cook objected to having him ent-rtain »o many guests. Just to prove who was boss the rook left—and Jack moved. The French racing enthusiasts seem to be having a lot of trouble in settling the entries* in their Interna tional race. They want to invite some American to send his horse to France for the event but they are undecided as to who to ask. Zev was the most popular name on . the list and Abe committee was ready to open negotiations with Harry Sin clair. Then Zev lost a race and now the committee wonders It it might not he better to rntrrtain In Memorlm. - / In Memoriam might be the horce to enter, at that. The race* In that country are over long dj*tancc* and In Memoriam has shown that he likes a distance. (barb Howard Jones si Iowa has turned author. After producing some I team* that opened the eves of the . football world he has written a book on how to play football. The book should be good, its by an I authority. The Western league seems to be a little bit upset now over who will direct the teams this coming season. Them is nothing tn get excited about.

Notre Dame, Ind.. Nov. 5.—Coach Roekne today began his drive for the last four games of the sason. Be cause of the comparative apathy r* the team during the last two game*, contests which were foregone con clusions as victories, it is thought that the coach will now pick up the reins and liegln to whip hi* men into shape for their remaining contests with Nebraska, Butler, Carnegie Tech and St. Louis. The Nebraska contest next Satur urday at Lincoln is expected to be the toughest of the four, because of the preponderance of weight, which the Cornhuskers will throw into the game, and the victory of Dawson a team last year. This afternoon’s workout was light only limbering up exercises, and sig nal drills being used. Tomorrow the third string will scrimmage the freshmen who will he using Nebraska plays. The regulars will scrimmage Wednesday afternoon. Trench Unable to Pick Race Horse - < Paris. Nov. 5.—In the absence of Pierre Wertheimer, owner of the French champion 3-year-old colt Epinard.i who is away for the week end hunting, no decision has been taken concerning a match race be tween Kpinard and the horse chosen as America’s best 3-year-old. The committee which is trying to organize a race is at sea as to which American horse to invite to come to France should M. Wertheimer accept the proposal for a nice. The Amer ican Jockey club may be requested to nominate the 3-year-old most worthy to represent the United States. Five months remain yet in which managers may be found. Now that the cooler weather has arrived bowling seems to be taking the lead among indoor sports. Sunday night the Farnani bowlers won a special match game. In the mixed doubles at the Omaha alleys Mrs Prendergast and A. Cushing won with a total number of pins of 1,124.
