Foot 111 This J"nhl. From present indications Omaha Is to have her share this fall of the great college game of foot ball.'liile up to this year she has ' able first class never been to boast of a teal of her own she has had good material from which to draw but It has never been organized except last fall , when the Young Men's Christian association made the move and sent a splendId team to Butte , Iont. This year the university club Is going to undertake the task of bringing the good foot ball players of the town together and getting up a team of which Omaha may be proud and which will be able to hold its own with all the cracks of this part of the valley. The club has placed Its foot bal maiers In the hands of an experienced and capable man , Frank Crawford who coached the Nebraska State University team lip to snch a high de- grim of excellence last fall. Already games are being arranged with all the universities around here and also with the crack Chicago athletic association . the Denver Athletic club and the Butte team. The Chicago athletic team has always made an easter trip played all the easter colleges and the Boston ath- lotI club , but this year she Is figuring on a western trip to the coast and promises to fa- von Omaha wili a game. To compete with these strong teams will necessitate a great deal of practice and the aid of all the old college men who used to indulge while underradnates. Besides the vorking up of the new material which Is rlnnln ! loose around here and anxious to leJrn the great game , the old veterans will clot bo overlooked. Being situated geOfllh. icali9' between the state universities . Omaha \lly bo the scene of two games of the West- cnn intercollegiate series. This league Is compo - er poeil . of the four state universities of No- hraska Iowa , Kansas and Missouri. Each one or lheso teams PlaYs one game with every other team , and If two teams win the same number of games the championship Is de- cllle.1 by the scores made In the games playel , as I was last year when Missouri and Nebraska hall won the lame number of gaines . hUt Nebraska had the largest scores ! lien credit and was awarded the pennant. crClt Always he fore tbs season the Mlssourl.Ne- brslc game has baen playe.l at Kansas City , but this year It has been transferred tn Omaha and will be played here on November 2. Everyone remembers the great crowd aril enthnslasm at University Ilark last Thanksgiving Hay where Nebraska and Iowa settled old , disputes on the rldlron. The Retted scenes will bo repeated thIs fall . when the same teams come together on the lame flolil to decide which has the best team and feM the men are continually changing and iie % . material Is worked up one season can nel not he taken as a crIterion of what the next will be. From this I will bo seen that Omaha Is to be favored with many games of the great college sport and also that she will have a colege of her own which will do her proud when upon foreIgn soil. .

For the balance of the season the Lincoln base bal team will play its Sunday games on the old fair grounds In this city the first one being this afternoon , beginning at 3 o'clock , with Bobby Carrutbers of Jackson- yule. A large attendance should attest to the fact that the Gate City has not lost Interest In the great sport or the Western association.
