Now that the first hurdle of the
annual Missouri Valley Conference
football race has been taken, dope
sters are busy figuring it all out on
paper.
Focusing the Scarlet and Cream
spotlight over the Valley, Cornhusker
trridsters must defeat four of the
strongest conference elevens before
Turkey day in order to lay another
claim to the Missouri Valley title
Having made use of the known
breaks of the fall sport, Nebraska
overthrew the Oklahoma stone in the
victory path to the merry tune of 24
to 0. New enthusiasts' optics must
turn towards the remaining quartet
of conference institutions: namely,
Kansas, Iowa State, Missouri, and
the Kansas Aggies.
Following the week end results,
Iowa State has stepped into the cal
cium glare and bids fair to finish the
season minus another coat of de
feat. When Missouri mentors re
ceived the news of the initial Corn
husker trimming at Illinois, it was
announced that Ames had replaced
Nebraska as the Tiger's stiffest op
position and quite so, for Missouri
suffered a 2 to 0 drubbing in the
neighboring state Saturday. The
week before Ames held Minneapolis
to a 20 to 17 victory after outplay-

For
Cornhusker Spirit
Permanently
Nebraska spirit, seriously threat
ened by the rapid growth of the in
stitution, was nailed down to per
manency when the stadium drive
carried over, a year ago. A number
of actively loyal Cornhuskers have
seen to it that "pep" demonstrations
are in evidence at different places on
the campus for several days before
an important contest.
Twenty-one years ago the Corn
huskers captured the gridiron laurels
from Minnesota by a single touch
down, after defeats from the eleven
six-footers for the two successive
previous years. Nebraskans were
victors over Illinois and Northwest
ern, the same season, 1902. Home
games, at that time, were played
on a make-shift and inadequate field,
located at the present site of the
engineering building.
Earl O. Eager, now with Raymond
Brothers company of Lincoln, who
was general manager of athletics
1906 to 1912, was responsible for the
existence of the Nebraska field
which made way for the new stadium
a few months ago. In the summer
of 1909 Mr. Eager personally super
vised the leveling of the ground and
the construction o? the bleachers
so that in the fall the Cornhuskers
tied Iowa in the first battle of the
season on a new field, with room for
plenty of side-line support. The
capitalistic portion of the new en
terprise was taken care of by don
ations from John McDonald and
ing the northern combination lor
three quarters.
The winning Gopher counters
came when a nuKe touchdown was
made after a blocked kick by Iowa
on her own 10 yard line. Minnesota
is groomed to be above the class
of Illinois in the Big Ten by eastern
critics. Carrying Ames' showing in
to the Valley, Nebraska is assured
of formidable opposition when the
Scarlet journey to the tall corn state
Nov. 17.
Kansas representatives have failed
to break into conference play as yet
and since the state machine and the
agriculture lads both boast a 6 to
win over Creighton of Omaha on
muddy fields, little can be foreseen
concerning the two teams strength.
Jayhawk offensive play proved
effective against a second rate eleven

Colonel C. J. Bills, added to the
money saved under the managership
of Mr. Eager, who had made Ne
braska athletics a paying proposition
from the first year of his regime.
Nebraska's enviable gridiron re
cord for the past ten years shows
approximately sixty games won,
fifteen lost, and ten tied, out of
total of eighty-five. Nearly half of
these games have been outside tho
Missouri Valley Conference.
Crowning this triumphal decade is
the season of 1922, in which eight
games were played, seven won by
Nebraska, 1 and one lost by three
points. The Cornhuskers reaped 276
points to the twenty-eight marks of
their opponents. Four of the latter
did not score at all. The finishing
touch was aded on Thanskgiving Day,
when the fightining eleven of Notre
Dame, formidable battlers since time
out of mind, were decisevely trim
med, by a count of 14 to 6.
Fred T. Dawson, who assumed
coaching responsibilities for the
Huskers in 1921, has to his credit
two seasons of unquestioned suprem
acy for his aggresive eleven.
Coach Dawson, by leading Nebras
ka to the achievement of these hoiv
ors proves himself one of the most
potent factors in opening the way
for the stadium, since the spirit be
hind this acquisition wa3 indubitably
stimulated by the splendid display of
Cornhusker fighting blood in the past
two seasons of football.

braska soil this week end. Shifty
plungers are seen in the rosters of
both teams and unless Nebraskka's
line continues to function a3 did the
forward wall of 1922, heavy ground
gains will likely be recorded.
Thus after scanning the Corn
husker slate the seeming hardest con
ference contests are to be played on
foreign fields, making the chamion
