GRINNELLWAS RUN OVER
Varsity Plays a Superb Game and
Shows Her Opponents How
to Play Other
Games. -
..Nothing but the heavy rai which
felf throughout almost the entire game
prevented. Nebraska from runniirg up a
score Of 'about 30 to" 0 agataBt-eflnnell.
During the second half the field was
so Bllppory that It was almost Impossi
ble to make a gain of any kind.
Grlnnell was out-weighed, out
classed and out-played. Their line was
unable to withstand the fierce on
slaught of the varsity, and only once
was Nebraska held for downs. Grln
ncll'B kicking was decidedly "hum,"
and the way Cortelyou and Shedd got
down tho field made it impossible for
tho visitors to d.o anything but lose
ground on an exchange of punts.
Nebraska's line up was subject to
considerable chango during the second
half. Thorpe wont In at quarter and
Benedict went in at right half, to
succeed SIrnodymus. Follmer took
She4d 'a place at end. but was put out
as the result of a mix up with his op
ponent. Westover then played end,
giving way in the line to Brlggs. Cot
ton went in at right guard in Tobln's
place.
The halves were short and two min
utes more of play In tho second half
would probably havo resulted in an
other score for Nebraska.
The Game in Detail.
Grlnnell kicked off to Benedict on
the 10 yard line, and he responded
with a 10 yard return. A 5 yard gain
followed on the third down. Mickel
then went through the lino for 5 yards
and Benedict punted. Cortelyou was
too swift for the Grlnnell man and
downed him in his tracks. Grlnnell
made 5 yards on tho third down, but
was forced to kick. Benedict fumbled
and carried the ball out. Slmodymus
made 10 yards, and Mickel the same,
and then Bell was sent over for a
touchdown, six minutes after the ball
had was put in play. Benedict
kicked goal. Score: 6-0.
Grlnnell kicked off to Benedict on
tho 15 yard line. He returned 10
yards and Shedd carried tho ball
around tho end for a 10 yard gain.
Slmodymus, Bell and Mickel all made
gains, and a touch down seemed Im
minent, but resulted in a touchback
because of a fumble on Grlnnell's goal
line. GrlnnelJ punted from tho 20
yard line. Cortelyou carried the ball
back 10 yards. Grlnnell got the ball
on a fumble, but made a kick of only
5 yards, losing tho ball to the varsity.
Mickel made 10 yards, and Bell car
ried the ball almost to the goal line.
Mlulel .then carried it over. Benedict
kicked goal. Score: 12-0.
On the kick" off Benedict carried the
ball back fifteen yards, and then
kicked' 45,' tho ball going behind Grln-
nell'B lino as a touchback. Time waB
called beforo much more playing could
bo done.
In the second half Tobln kicked to
Grlnnell's five yard lino, and a 10 yard
return followed. Grlnnell lost 5 yardB
on a fumble, and Captain Evans, on an
attempted end run was carried back
by Follmer. Evans kicked a grounder
to-Thorpe who was unable to return.

gains, but Nebraska, lost the ball on

kick, and Benedict mado the third
touchdown, but failed to kick goal.
Score: 17-0.
Grlnnell then took a brace and made
5 yards. Offside plays gave them ten
more. Nebraska in her turn made G
years in the same way, and then stead
ily advanced the ball to Grlnnell's 15
yard line, when time was called.

Seniors Aim at Reform.
The Senior class meeting last Friday
was the most enthusiastic gathering In
tho history of the class. The meeting
was called by petition of ten members
of the class, and had for its object a
definite understanding of the work
ing out of clossy.,BamlmdfvkoJaoln
ln& order of class committees for tho
coming year.
Last year tho Senior and Junior
classes adopted a plan which required
all receipts to ho turned In the class
treasury. Previous to the adoption of
this plan, class committees had the
privilege of pocketing all that could
bo made out of tholr positions.
The aim of the now idea is to mako
all class occasions strictly class business
and not committee affairs. AH moneys
should pass through the treasury of
the class. The Seniors wore called to
consider its readoptlon at tho begin
ning of the year. The'questlpn was
placed beforo the meeting and a mo
tion stated in tho following terms:
"In case of proceeds arising from
any class function, tho committee hav
ing said function in charge shall pay
said proceeds into the class treasury.
uuu wiium ien aays auer saiu iunction
the chairman of said committee shall
hand in an Itemized report of time and
money expended, together with all
original bills, to the class president.
... ...... , -. .
"The president will put tho report
and bills In tho hands of an auditing
committee, which will report at a reg
ular class meeting.
"Tho adoption of the auditing com
mittee's report will empower tho treas
urer to pay out of tho said proceeds
all class obligations In tho customary
way; and after all such obligations
shall havo been paid the chairman of
tho first named committeo shall re
ceive 25 cents an hour, and tho mem
bers 20 cents an hour, for all tlmo ac
tually spont In carrying out said func
tion, for which time they havo "pre
sented bills to the auditing committee,
provided the not proceeds will pay
all claims, if not, tho proceeds shall
bo paid proportionately to tho afore
named committee.
"The above ruling will apply to tho
Senior Annual board, excopting, tho
editor-in-chief and business managers
shall recoivo 25 cents por hour and
othor officers and members of the board
20 cents an hour for time actually
spent in carrying on tho business of
tho board."
The motion at once stirred tho Se
nior elements and a great deal of
thunder followed. After tho period
had beon consumed In speech making,
a vote was taken, which resulted In
the defeat of tho motion by a vote of
moro than two to one. -
University Medical Society.
The medical students of the universi
ty met Friday night In mechanic arts
hall, and completed the organization
of their society, which will henceforth
be known as tho "Mescal Society
of the University of Nebraska."
The old constitution of tho pro
medics was revised to meet tho new
conditions arising through the addi
tion of the new department of medi
cine. Under the new arrangement any
student of the university may becomo
a member of the society by signing
the constitution. Tho organization
already numbers thirty-four members.
As all the business connected with
permanent organization has not boen
completed, another meeting will bo
called for this week.
Gophers Still Victorious.
The following is taken from a dis
patch to one of tho Chicago papers
from Minneapolis:
"Minnesota's goal line remains un
touched." Belolt went down by a score
of 29 to 0. Although lighter tho Be
lolt men put up a hard game, and the
Gophers obtained their points only by
the fiercest work. The Minnesota play
ers succeeding in pushing the ball
over only at the end of the first half.
The ball was kept during tho first half
almost entirely in tho center of the
field.
"In the second half Belolt succeeded
In making a sixty-five yard run, .but
tho man was downed on Minnesota's
thirty yard line. The ball was ob
tained by the Gophers and the other
touch downs were the result of hard
work. Lafans and Van Valkonburg did
the star work for Minnesota."
