The best game of the season was played on the Universiiy athlftie field. Thanksgiving day, when Nebraska met Notre Dame and lost. The final score was 20 to 0, against us. It was one of the hardest fought games of the year. The Nebraska team played real football up to the last minute. Notre Dame has a splendid team. It is much heavier than the Nebraska team. Bergman is one of the fastest backfield men in the country. Notre Dame's forward pass was impossible to break up. There were ever so many things in the Catholics' favor. Generally the time for explanations is not after a defeat. There are always those who misconstrue even the slightest remarks. But it is only fair to both teams, to give them fair credit for what they had. and for what they did. Nebraska ended the football season gloriously. The score is no indication of the kind of a game that has been played. If a team keeps fighting all of the time, to its utmost, and plays a clean game, it has done all that any reasonable human being could expect of it. Dr. E. J. Stewart was re-elected athletic coach for one year, at a meeting of the athletic board last evening. Dr. Stewart came to Nebraska a stranger to our ideas and customs, and has adapted himself to them very aptly. The year, so far, has been remarkable in several ways. The trip to Oregon was an unprecedented adventure for the University and its team. It was every bit a success. The Kansas game and the Notre Dame game was also an almost unprecedented adventure for the Uni versity and its team. From the football point of view they certainly were not successful. Nebraskans had become satiated with victory and egotism. The two defeats diminished the victorious ideas and offended the egotistic. There were a few people who were dissatisfied with the outcome of the season's scores and blamed the coach. Perhaps a trifle of the blame was deserved, a very great deal of it was not. In short. Dr. Stewart has been given only the beginning of an opportunity to show what he can do. Both the coach and the team had to grow accustomed to each other. A coach cannot get results unless the understanding between himself and his team is mutual. It takes time to establish this understanding. The Nebraska athletic board demonstrated its faith in Coach Stewart's ability when it re-elected him last evening, and there is no doubt that every Nebraskan stands ready to approve the action of the board. Nebraska alumni are demanding that one big football game of next year's season be scheduled in Omaha. They say that they always support the games played in Lincoln, and. that Lincoln is the only city which profits by the money which always comes with a game. After they attempt to establish this argument, they state that it is only fair that one large game be played in Omaha, thus giving Omaha a share of the profits that go hand-in-hand with a game. According to the Missouri valley conference rules, games played by schools in the conference must be on the home field. After the O. A. C. game was scheduled for Portland, last spring, the conference rules were strengthened by defining the phrase "home field" as the ground whereon the main offices are located. This was to prevent any recurrence of the Oregon episode. Under the circumstances, it seems an Impossibility to conform with the wishes of the Omahans. There is no need for rules or laws if they cannot be kept. After they have been made, they should be observed. There may be a solution to the problem. They may say that Nebraska could get out of the conference. They may say that because Nebraska Itself strengthened the rules, by defining "home field," Ne braska can annul the rules. They seem to think that the other mem bers of the conference would desire the annulment of the rule. The wisdom of these "solutions" is to be questioned.
