LINCOLN, NEBRASKA,
Schulte Played With Famous
Wolverine Eleven of Long Ago
An article in the Omaha Sunday
Bee of November 7, by Walter Ecker
soil, tells of the time Coach Henry
Schulte of Nebraska played guard on
the famous Michigan team of 1904,
when the Wolverines had one of the
best teams in the country. ' The
articfe is accompanied by a picture of
Schulte and six other "stars," show
ing the present Husker coach to have
been lean and stalwart.
The article was written for the
purpose of calling to mind the, fact
that the Michigan-Chicago clash of
this week-end marks he Maroons'
first appearance on the Wolverines'
gridiron since 1904, when Billy Hes
ton, the greatest halfback eer de
veloped In the Middle West, led
Michigan to a 22 to 12 victory over
Chicago In a bitterly fought contest.
Eckersoll continued: "It was a
struggle featured by the hardest kind
of football. Michigan was represent
ed that year by one of the best teams
in its history. Besides Captain Hes
ton tjiere were Germany Schultz at
center; Coach Schulte at one guard;
Curtis at tackle; Frank Longman at

and Harry Hammond at end, while
Norcross piloted the team -from the
quarterback position."
Eckersoll Member of Chicago Eleven.
At that time Walter Eckersoll was
a member of the Chicago eleven. "I
will never forget the kickoff of that
stubbornly fought battle," he wrote.
"In the game the bruising battle soon
reaped Its toll. Catlin and Bezdek
were forced to leave the struggle
after sustaining serious injuries. 1
shall never forget the great playing
of Heston in this game. Time and
time again he broke loose and came
down upon me with his knees nearly
hitting his chin.
"It is my honest opinion that the
west will never see such a halfback
again. This player weighed around
190 pounds and had the speed of a
sprinter. He gained so much speed
at the start that he seldom failed to
make ground when opposition was
met. He was ably seconded in this
game by Tom Hammond and Frank
Longman, who gave almost perfect
Interference for their leader."

Paul Adams Stationed
at Hays City, Kansas
The following letter has been re
ceived from Paul Adams, '20, who is
now employed by the Consolidated
Power and Light company of Hays
City, Kas.:
"I'll try to tell you a little about
what I have been doing since June
7th (how well I remember that hot
day). I came to this city to work
for these people as a traveling sales
man, and I was employed as such for
some time. Later, larger deals such
as city light plant contracts' instead
of the little farm plants came to us
and this of course required the en
largement of the company. I was
taken into the. offices and given the
position of secretary and treasurer,
which position I now hold, and I am
very much pleased with the present
outlook. Of course there are a lot
more responsibilities than to a man
just on the road but one will never
get ahead by shirking responsibilities.
And I might add here that I have
some dealings with 'supply and de
mand.' "I was in Lincoln last registration
week on business an dwas disappoint
ed that I did not have time to visit
the campus at all.
"I have been quite successful in
following our good old Husker foot
ball team by the newspapers and the
results are quite pleasing. And 1
have lots of opposition from two
Missouri men here in the office, we
can't even agree on politics, let alone
which football team Is the best"
AG CLUB TO ENTERTAIN.
The Ag Club will entertain In
formally at a dancing party In the
Lincoln hotel ballr, A u..L,ht. Novel
refreshments and good music have
been promised. ,A few. remaining
tickets may be procured from Stanley

Professor Barbour at
Sigma Xi Meeting
Prof. E. H. Barbour of the 'Blolog
Department at the University gave an
interesting illustrated lecture on "The
Prehistoric Animals of Nebraska" in
the general lecture room of Bessey
Hall, Thursday evening, before mem
bers of Sigma XI society at an open
meeting.
He discussed the origin and nature
of the Tertiary formations of the
Great Plains with special reference to
the Nebraska formations in which
are found the fossil remains of ani
mals that lived many thousands of
years ago. Descriptions and illustra
tions of the famous Nebraska bone
beds with habitat restorations of the
large animals found In them were
shown. .
SPcGIAL SECURED FOR
TRIP TO KANSAS GAME
Students to Witness Battle of Husker
and Jayhawk Saturday.
Reservations Still Open for Journey
to Sunflower State Which
Starts Tonight.
The special train to the Kansas
game will leave via the Union Pacific
tonight at 11 o'clock. Reservations
rday still be made at the Union
Pacific office in the Chamber of Com
merce building, 204 North Eleventh
street. Tickets for the game may be
secured at the Student Activities
office or at Tucker-Shean's.
Railroad fare for the round trip is
514.60. With standard sleeper accom
modations the total amount is ?20.38.
This amount is not great and authori
ties feel that it should keep no
enthusiast at home when such a treat
as a gridiron game with the Jayhawks
is at the other end of the line.
Those who have made reservations
can further the cause by speeding up
others who intend to go but who are
"gumming the machinery" by delaying
the act of making reservations. Ne
braska should send several hundred
rooters with the team on their tour
into the "Sunflower State." Now
that the "special" is really assured
there should be no further delay in
getting the maximum number of pas
sengers. The train will return to
Lincoln at 9:30 Sunday morning.
PROFESSOR BARBOUR TALKS
TO GAMMA SI6MA DELTA
University Instructor Speaks on
Genesis of Domestic
Animals.
Prof. E. H. Barbour addressed the
members of Gamma Sigma Delta last
Wednesday evening on J'The Genesis
of Domfttr Jr'mals." He statod
that at one period during the forma
tion of "the earth, it was surrounded
by several hundred atmospheres of
poisonous gases and that it was im
possible for animal life to exist until
these gases had been absorbed. The
first animals were sea animals and
the first plants were water plants and
the reason for this was that they
could not survive on land because of
the gases and. the high temperature.
Birds are the outgrowth of animals
and the transformation required mil
lions of years. Fossils found show a
marked resemblance of the prehistoric
bird to the animal. These prehistoric
animals evolved into the various ani
mals which have developed into the
modern domestic animal after several
million years.
Discovered Many Fossils.
Professor Barbour has discovered
many fossils of these historic animals
in their various stages of development
in Nebraska and most of these In
Sioux county. This county was once
covered with lakes and because or
this condition the fossils have, been
preserved. Many of the fossils un
earthed are rare specimen and very
valuable. The principal one is that
of the "father" hog better known In
the museum as the 50,000 hog. Pro
fessor Barbour stated that there was
only one other like it In the world
and that one will be found at the
Carnegie museum.

all the men a chance In the game if
possible. The Huskers have worked
out only three times the past week
but the men are in the best of condi
tion and expect to give the Jayhawks

but all of their defeats have been by
strong teams.
Blankets for Varsity.
