Hate to Minnesota Yes
terday's Practice
AlmoHt unbounded enthusiasm pre
vails In the University and city cir
cles over the coming same with Min
nesota. The low rate which has been
made Insures an enormous crowd
from Lincoln. Business men are al
most as anxious concerning the trip
ns students. It was reported a shoit
time ago that some of the business
houses were in a quandary ns to how
to secure men to keep their stores
open on the Saturday of the excursion.
The executive office force 'have been
busy answering calls for Informa
tion. The Interest has spread even out
side of Lincoln. At Seward the people
aie trying to arrange for a special
car. At other points In the state the
Interest in the excursion Is evidently
great. It is probable that large crowdB
will come in to join the party from
neuily all important points near Lln-
oln.
Already more than the 200 lequlred
to secure the flve-dollai rati have an
nounced their Intention of going. Phi

man sleeper which will accommodate
00 persons. Kappa Kappa Gamma has
also reserved a car. In addition to this

electric light plants of the twin cities.
One list in the executlvo office con
tains the names of over forty who
have promised to go.
Students are urged to leave their
names with some one of the solicitors
4&) If they Intend to go.
TEAM WORK YESTERDAY.
The usual team work was gone
through with. Interference was tine.
Quite a crowd was on the side lines,
but Leader Teach did not urge the
yelling. Ryan was on the field In togs
again. Johnson was out. Ringer will
not be able to play In the Minnesota
gume on account of his Injured knee.
IJiew, when interviewed by a Dally
reporter, said, "I feel confident Ne
braska will do herself proud next
week ut Minnesota. We should have
a better, more experienced team than
last year and I believe we have. The
men are coming down In line shape.
Minnesota can hardly be a stlffer team
than K'lksville. They were a collec
tion t: professionals and "will avorage
abot i Minnesota's weight."
Tonight j ho 'Varsity will only go a
few minutes' against the Bcrnbs owing
to the game- tomorrow against Doane.
The scrubs scored against 'Varsity
by a long run and a mlstackle It was
xtlie first tme In twp years that scrubs
IinvjE scored.
.
The Kansas City' Star has this to
nay i. bout the recent addition to the
r'ebruska team:
'"li.e back field of the Nebraska
fool bull eleven was strengthened ful
ly a third when George Shedd, an old
star for Nebraska at full back, strode
onto the campus clad In a suit. Shedd
ployed half back in "95 and '9G and full
in '97, when he was captain. This
jent he leturned to school to complete
i is course and also take law He had
fi.-Bt decided to cut out football, but
he i rslsted In the coaching several
lus last week meiely through Intel -est
and again caught the fever. All
things considered. Shedd Is the most
powt'iful man that over played on a
Nebraska eleven in the back field. His
weight. 200 poundu, and his speed give
him almost catapultlc force when he
hits the opposing line". He is equally
strong on defense and is a capable
I-iintei Coach Booth plans to put
Shedd In against the Gophers at Min
n)f(lib a week from next Saturday.
Tie accession of Shedd will result In
the (transfer -of Kingsbury to half
back, where lie should put up a strong
game. Kingsbury's weight Is over 170
pounds He will alternate at half,
possibly with Bender and Crahdall.

Will Speak.
Everybody Come
a thing at this stage of the season is
unheard of at Wisconsin. The general
opinion is that Coach King remohv
bers the hard game Belolt put up last
year and is bound to be propared for it
this season. This seems unnecessary,
however, as the Badgers are fully ten
days ahead of their last year's form.
The scrimmage was hard and fast.
Not once was the 'varsity held for
downs, while the scrubs were unable to
make their gains for any length of
time.
Driver was In the game for the first
time this ovenlug. He has decided to
resign from his state Job and will reg
ister tomorrow. This will give the
Badgeis the star trio of backs they
had last year. Guard and quarter
alone remain to be filled now and ma
terial for both seems plentiful. For
the vacant guard position Crane,
Deerlng, Holsteln and Tenner are all
putting up strong games, with the
chances slightly in favor of Holsteln.
Hyde Paik haB been secured for
Saturday's game and the 'varsity ex
pect a speedy contest. Before the
game a kicking contest will be held for
a prize cup worth $100, donated by
Attorney Thomas Gill of Milwaukee.
Among the likely winners are Driver,
Schrelber, Abbott and Abercomble.

DOANE COLLEGE TOMORROW.
The game with Doane College which
comes off tomorrow afternoon prom
ises to be an Interesting and exciting
contest. Doane has probably the beBt
team in the state outside, of the Uni
versity. It will be the first real con
test held this year on the home
grounds. 8tudonts should turn out
well an.l do a Uttle practical work at
rooting before the big game a week
from tomorrow. A special admission
price of 25 cents has been made which
ought to insure a largo crowd.
DELTA DELTA DELTA PARTY.
The young laldes of Delta Delta
Delta entdrtained their friends last
niglit at the homo of Miss Edna Gund,
347 So. 27th st. The house was elab
orately decorated and prepared for the
Occasion. One of the most amusing
features of the evening's entertain
ment was a moot auction. Dancing and
cards also formed a part of the even
ing's pleasure. A chafing dish was
TENNIS ASSOCIATION.
The courts west of the library are
now in good condition, and until the
end of the season will be thrown open
to all the studonts. The present mem
bership is not large enough to keep
them busy. Marking tooliTand lime
may lie found handy for anyone to
use.
At present there is n surplus of cash
In the hands of the manager which
will be left over, no doubt, for next
season's expenses. Some sixty odd
dollars was taken In during the nast
I season for membership and by the ten
nis meets In the spring.
Some correspondence Ujas jjassed be
tween Kansas and .Nebraska In regard
to the meet this fall. This has to be
pulled oft on account of previous con
tract. Farnsworth and either Sanger
or Raymond will go to Kansas some
time before the season Is too late. At
present Manager Farnsworth Is wait
ing to hear from there.
Kappa Sigma initiated Messrs.
Charles Weeks, Harry tloberts, John
Stevens, Sidney Roth and Harold Roth
Wednesday evening. An Informal
banquet at Cameron's followed.
