iroin Nebraska. Failure to kick goal
left the scors, Uutte 10, Nebraska fl. It
remained so until time was called.
The team's failure to win at Hutto
has caused no lack of confidence in
their ability among their lriends at
home. While defeat was unexpected,
jet ever, one looks upon tho bright side
oi it and jays, "Well, it's not a league
game and don't count." Hutte's lino
averages 210 pounds, to each man. Our
boys are touexpected to go through a
wall. So much beef is sure to count,
whore it is used to tho climate, while
Nebraska had this difllculty to add to
their troubles.
SECOND ELEVEN IN IT.

Thursday evening to meet the Y. M.
C. A. club of that city in a foot ball
game Friday afternoon, Everyone is
glad to know that a foot a game has
been arranged for them, as tho boys
who battle against tho "big men" in
the first eleven ought to got a few of
the benefits tho foot ball players fall

as follows: Uowman, 1. e.; Seargear.t,

DELTA TAU DELTA RECEPTION.
One of tho prettiest receptions of tho
season was given by the Delta Tan
Deltas at their chapter house, Twonty
llfth and H streets, to Chancellor and
Mre. McLean and the alumni of Uio
lraternity and their wives, Tuesday
evening.
It was the first chance the outside
world had had to see the new chapter
house, and its comforts and elegance
aroused envy in many souls- The
rooms are huge and handsomely fur
nished, and Tuesday night, under tho
soft glow of the lighlshed from purple,
white and gold shades (tho fraternity
colors), with cheery fires burning in
the grates, and with a profusion of
scarlet and cream roses, they presented
a particularly attractive appearance.
The table where tho ices were served
was covered with carnations and pan-
si us, the latter being the fraternity
flower.
Mr. Gillman and Mr. Riley, tho new
initiates were in evidence, receiving
the congratulations of the crowd.
Tho Delts are such royal entertain
ers that it is superfluous to say that
everyone had a spl-ndid time.
Those receiving were Eugene Hrown
and Robert Manly Miss JoLottridge
served the refreshments, which con
sisted of ices.
FA LLS CITY CLUB.
Last Friday evening, at the call of
Prof. Reese, superintendent of the
Falls City public schools, the students
of that place attending the State Uni
versity met in the parlors of the Lin
doll hotel to organize a Falls City Uni
versity club. There were about fifteen
present and an organization was ef
fected with the following officers:
President, W. S. Hutchhigs; Vice
President, Miss Emma Boose; Secre
tary, L. M. Weaver; Treasurer, Zeno
Elijah Crook; Executive Hoard, Allen
1). May, John Hoose, Miss Fannie Mor
ton. Black and led, the colors of the
Fallj City high school, were adopted as
the colors of the club. Prof. Reeco and
Miss Anna Thomas, a teacher in the
Lincoln high school, upon motion of
A. J. Weaver, were elected honorary
members.
THE POLYTECHNIC ALL RIGHT.
In response to a request fiom the
managers of the Lincoln Polytechnic
institute, to investigate their standard
with a view to being placed upon the
list of accredited schools, tho commit
tee of the faculty on such matters took
tho matter in hand, and Wednesday
Prof Fling spent the day in looking
over the new institution.
lie reports everything satisfactory.
The president and director, he says,
aio doing their best to establish a first
class preparatory school, more than the
equal of many of the high schools of
the state. It is not a normal school,
but what its name indicates, a "poly
technic" school
The report will undoubtedly bo en
tirely satisfactory to the faculty and
booh tho new institution at Hawthorne
will practically take the place of our
preparatory department .

BATTALION NOTES
Artillery detachments for artillery
practice witli the new breech load
ing cannon will soon be formed. A
cavalry squad is also contemplated.
New cadets are now strictly subject
to all regulations of the battalion and
awkwardness or ignorance of what is
required of them will be reported if
any such is exhibitod.
The new cadets will soon be placed
with the companies to drill there the
first half of tho hour. The remainder
of tho period will be spent in drilling
in squads.
Honorable discharges for all cadets
who have drilled the required three
years have been prepared and are now
being given to tho men. They are in
imitation sheepskin and resemble a
diploma in many ways. In fact they
are meant for diplomas. They are
made out in the rank that the cadets
held when their required drill was com
pleted. If a man drills his fourth year
as a captain his discharge is made out
as a sergeant.

committee are very desirous that all
should have a chance to subscribe for
ono or a dozen. Anyone who is willing
to take one should thus encourage the
project by seeing that their name is

in tho committee's report. Names
should be handed to one of the follow
ing persons who constitute this committee-

A CHANGE IN PLANS
MISSOURI GAME AT ST. JC
Powltily n Proportion Krom the Crescent City
Alhlettc AtocUUon Will Ue
Accepted Tho Term.
Tho chances for a change in the lo
cation of tho Missouii-Nebraska game,
which is scheduled for Omaha Novem
her 'J, are qulto possible. Wednesday
Manager Sheldon received a telegram
from the nuuugors of the Crescent
City Athletic club ot St. Joe, Missouri,
guaranteeing all expenses and the en
tire net gale receipts of the game to
the clubs it thoy would play the game
on tho scheduled date on tho associa
tion's grounds in St. Joe. Tho tele
gram was forwarded to Sheldon and
Whipple, and what thoy will do with
the proposition is yet mere conjecture.
If dfUnitoarrangenients have not
been made ith the Omaha parties, a
change 111 location is quite possible.
Tho managers have a bono to pick
with the Omaha people, as they are
charging tliem oue-foui th the gale re
eeipts tor the use of tho grounds tor
ono afternoon. This amounts to
about $-100 rem for a half day s u&e of
the giouuiis.
l ue at. Joe association is not going
into tl tor any money, as is evident
110111 tltcir eiins. If tlie game can be
given under llieir auspices it will be a
greal Hung tor them. Tho club is
wealthy aim tho boys would bo IreMed
in royai style. Ail the club wants is
me gloiy 01 securing such an attrac
tion tor ihe fet. Joe lovers of sport.
It win soon be known how tho mat
ter is tu be sellleii, as it must bo done
right away.
WILL PLAY DOANE.
The" foot ball inanagers"are Melcfhi-
iued to have a game Willi Doane, but
have been holding back for as good
tonus to play at Crete as wo ottered
them to play hero. Our oiler was a
gu.irautee ot S1O0. It was $10 last
vear. Doane claims the championship
of the state and insists that wo piay
there for the same guarantee that she
played here last year.
In a communication in a local paper
from Doaue's manager it was suited
that a game might possibly bo "sand-
witched" in with the State University,
though their dates were all full. H
will not bo very hard to arrange a date
that is, for Doane. Following is her
schedule for the rest of the year;

SECOND ELEVEN WIN.
The High school foot ball team lined
up against the second eleven Wednes
day night for two twenty-minute
halves. During the first hnlf the high
school did fairly good offedsive work,
carrying the ball to within six inches of
tlie second eleven's goal. They could
get not one inch more, for the second
uleven boys "woke up and played the
defensive successfully until they got
the ball. The first half closed with the
high school boys dangerously near our
goal.
Tho second half was better for us,
for the high school boys got tired. We
made a touchdown in nine, minutes,
and another followed soon after; but
not soon enough to keep the high
school from scoring a safety. Spook
failed to kick goal for the first touch
down, but Phillips did it all right the
next trial. Cameron did some pretty
work as right half, and little Phillips
showed up well. This was the first
chance at real play the second eleven
had had; and. considering everything,
it wasn't bad. Score, 10-2, in favor of
tho University.
