THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
HEW IHTRA-HDRAl
SPORTS PLANNED
h Elaborates Program to Include
AH University Men By New
City Sub-divisions
"Heretofore intra-mural sports in
the university has been more or less
confined to fraternities, but this
year the plans are being elaborated
to include the non-fraternity men,"
Herbert Gish, director of athletics,
stated yesterday.
"The only way the men could be
reached before was through some
such organization as the fraternity,
but now a division of the city is be
ing made whereby the non-fraternity
men will be able to compete in intra
mural sports," Gish continued.
"In all probability the districts as
outlined will not prove satisfactory,
but in time they can be worked over
to distribute the men more equally."
A map of the districts is on the
bulletin board in the stadium dressing-rooms,
and- each man should find
out his district and then register.
"Jimmie" Lewis, in the athletic of
fice, will be in charge of registration.
One of the big features in intra
mural sports this year will be the
Hare and Hounds chases. This is a
new game here, but is the revival of
an old Anglo-Saxon game.
Hare and Hound Chase
Two hares will carry bits of paper
with which they leave a trail or scent.
The hounds will follow the paper
scent and attempt to overtake and
capture the hares before the home
base is reached. Points are scored
according to the number of hares
that reach home, and the hounds
score by either capturing a hare or
by returning home at the end of the
chase first.
The Hare and Hounds chases will
be only one of a number of activities
planned for competition this fall. The
chases will be run each week begin
ning October 4 and continuing Octo
ber 12, 18, 26, November 1, 7, and
15. Chases will siart at 4:30 sharp.
Further announcements will appear
in the Daily Nebraskan and on the
bulletin board in the Stadium.
Trophy skins or banners will bej
presented to the winning teams, both
fraternity and non-fraternity. The
non-fraternity tropliy will remain in
V the stadium, and the fraternity skins J
or banners will become the possession
of the winning groups. Individual
medals will be presented to the men
scoring the most points for the se
ries, foints win De awaraea to
the Hare and Hounds chases.
Msets at 4:00 P. M.
The regular fall track and field
meets will be held at 4:00 p. m.
Thursday, October 20, and Monday,
November 7. Thursday, November
10 is the date set aside for the an
nual interfraternity cross country
run.
Tho athletic office, with the co

The Home Economics club gave a

home economics parlors. A short
program was given consisting of a
vocal solo by Miss Kathryn Dean and
a violin solo by Miss Dorothy Lux-ford.

With three- members of last year's
regular cross-country team and a
bevy of promising candidates from
last yearVfreshmen team on hand,
prospects are bright for Nebraska
harriers this year according to
"Jimmy" Lewis, Coach Schulto's
right-hand assistant who will direct
early season cross-country practice.
Coach Schulte is giving football talks
over the state.
Captain Glen Johnson, Norris
Chadderdon, and Robert Sprague,
regulars from last year are already
working out. The other two regular
members of last year's squad, Hays
and McCartney graduated last spring.
Frink, substitute was another loss by
graduation.
Leading contenders for places on
this year's team from last year's
freshmen include Griffen, Etherton, j
and Beattie, all of whom were con
sistent point winners in the distances
in numeral meets last spring. About
50 suits have been issued to date.
With but two weeks before the
opening football game at Nebraska,
fans are predicting that the Cornhus-
kers will take the Missouri Valley
championship this year. It is just a
little ahead of time to start "dop
ping" out the valley, but with Coach
Ernest Bearg directing the destinies
of Nebraska's pijskm pastime, and
vith the abundance of lettermen and
seasoned freshmen material, Ne
braska should forge ahead to the po
sition of champions. The schedule
is heavy an dthe practice season is
short, but the coaching staff at the
Cornhusker school is predicting a
winning season for the Huskers of
1927.

Yesterday's practice resembled a
busy day on a Paramount movie lot
more so than a football practice on
the gridiron of a Missouri Valley
school. Camera men galore were
running hither and yon trying to get
pictures of the Cornhusker team in
action. News, Paramount, and
Lincoln News camera men were on
the scene of the opening practice of
the Scarlet and Cream football war-
riers. "Cv" Sherman, sports editor
of t'le Lincoln Star, and John Bentley
of the Lincoln Journal both had their
camera men shooting pictures of in
dividual players, group pictures, and
scrimmage scenes. The campus pho

a formidable schedule facing him,
Coach Ossie Solem, the Drake mentor

shape for one of the greatest sched
ules in football history at Drake.
How the Bulldogs will make out
against such an array of powerful
ridiron elevens as appear on the
Drake schedule is a hard question to
answer and foolish to predict, but the
backers of the Bulldog eleven will
consider it a successful year if So
