SAND HELPS-GOPHERS WIN

ADVANTAGE TO WEIGHTY MINNESOTANS
CornhtnUers Attn Suffered from llnv

on (fume.
!t Is cosy to' discern Just .why Minnesota
won from Nebraska. It was not that she
excelled In foot ball playing Itself, for In
only one feature of the name proper did the
Gophers fairly outclass their opponents.
That was kicking, but all tho punting Id
the country could not havo saved . that
game. What really defeated Nebraska was'
not tho Minnesota team, but nil these flvo
things: A sandy Held that worked up Into
deep loam; a tostn on which were several
cripples; enormous weight of tho opposing
eleven; a physical condition far .Inferior to
that of the Gophers; the lack of even an,
ordinary high sohool or academy ptlntcr.
Klrat and foremost was that sandy field.
The otter four Influences were 'mew do
pendent evils and would havo counted for
little had not the first been jnxlstcnt.i The
University of Minnesota certainly has In
Northrop field tho one feature necessary
to Insure tho best possible chances, for .the
victory of Its big team In nil games played
at home. Thcro nre Just two thlngs'lh the
world that arc capable of wlnnlngtngalnst
a team of giants who nro well;coaclied and
trained. Those arc great Individual nglllly
and fast team play on tho part of" tho
lighter opponents. And nolthcr of thoso
features can be used to any extent upon a
sandy flold. Tho slow going simply kills off
fast play. Tho smaller men nro unable to
get the quick starts on which they depend
for success. They nro wnllowlng around
ariklo deep. Ip a sea of Band and 'their big
ger. nnd naturally slower rivals can start
Just'aK quickly ns they can.
K sandy Held Is pre-eminently for a push-lng-gamenot
a running nor a dodging one.
And' thcrohp big men can, of course, win
very time, provided training Is equal. Two
hundred-pounds can always push ITS pounds
backard, provjdlng the latter la In no bet
tfr condition and docs not got tho (aster
tart, which It cannot In sand.
.90 lh,at ,one thing practically won tho
gamo-for Minnesota, If nothing clso did. It
certainly beat Nebraska. It avoh tho only
thlqg that maijc the weight of tho Gophers
ax thine to, bo feared. On a liard field that
ponderousness would not have been ter
rifying. On tho Rand it was fatal, for every
thing was push from .tho start., Nebraska
was competent to face tho weight and
stand tho racket: oh hard ground, but the
sand, worked against ,tho Cornliuskers not
only In making the gamo a mere matter of
superior weight from tho beginning, but
also In wearing them out. They were not
used, to, It, and '-It. killed them off, ate up
their" ginger and ended by putting them
constantly on tho dcfocslve.
Home Field nn AdrnntnKe.
'No other school has such a field. At Mll
waukoc; at Madison, 'at Chicago, at North
wHern,( at Michigan and, nt every other
place' it a .hard earth or cloy' fteld. liiBt
yegr tho Badgers .went, to Minnesota. They
wer' undoubtedly the heat team In. tho
wst. Minnesota beat (hem 6 to C on the
Bind. Their boasted ast play could avail
nothing against the slow Held. Then Min
nesota 'c'a'mo to Northwestern on a bard'
flold .and was. ablo only to play a tie with
thjaVecnoiol. " ' ,
Afyl Vot was "11 the time. The bdphcra
were supreme at home, but not especially so
elsewhere, It Just happened that all their
hard, games came at .Minneapolis, whore
thousand played on their side. True, they
eamo 'down to Lincoln and defeated Ne
braska on hard groupd, but had tho Cnrn
husk'ers then had the loam that faced Min
nesota olgbt days ago tho northerners
would simply have been run Into tho earth.
There Is no question about It. As it wan,
lack, of confidence and temporary "rattles"
beat Nebraska then. This year thoy suf
fered flora neither ot these, but found them
selves on a gridiron that was Just as ef
fective against them.
H wki useless to try anything. All the
way "to Minneapolis tho ona prayer of the
Nebraskans had been that tho 'field 'would
bo dry, That Is the solo advantage of sand.
It was dry. though some hard rains had
been falling all week. Howover, tho looso
sand was Just as. bad as. mud would have
Ween. .It "queered" everything. Tho swift
end plays were' no go, becntino Iho backs
could' not start qujckly, Tho mass plays
Wre useless, becauso Minnesota weighed
" much more, and by lying up against tho
Nebraskans could force them back. Snappy
rfork which would havo redcomed this stylo
ot play was Impossible In tho footing. After
. few scrimmages about n corta'in spot the
sand "would work up almost ahklo deop.
The result of thin wns that, in addition to
being unable to make gains, Nebraska wad
d6ne' out In twenty minutes. Tho boys
wero worn out from trying to hold their
own' In the heavy footing, -from being
shoved and pushed under circumstances' In
which thoy had .do chance. They could not
lst as long as tho Gophers In It, because
they ,wero .not In as good condition and be
cause they wero lighter. And' that Is how
the flelJ, weight and training counted.
Cripples- Among Cornliuskers,
Another clement of tho five' which de
feated Nebraska was the crippled condition
of the' team, That can easily be Illustrated.
Brew, right- guard, actually got up out of
bed to don a suit and go onto tho field.
He bad eaten nothing for a day and a
half; his stomach could hardly enduro
water; ho lasted about fifteen minutes.
Ringer, left guard, Is another example.
Ills knee, which was twisted so viciously
out of Joint In practice some weeks ago,
Is by no means recovered. He played Hit
through the Gopher game with a heavy
steel brace, weighing fifteen pounds,
strapped to his leg. Without that aid ho
could not stand on tho member at all, It
was easy to seo him from the sidelines
bearing all his weight on tho other leg and
saving the injured one all he could. And
this crippled man had Mueller, the cracker
Jack guard of tho Mlnncsotns, against him.
Ho played a great game, but was perfectly
honest about admitting that his opponent
was a terror. "Mueller kept mo so busy,"
said Illngor, "that I had no time to see
how anybody elso was getting along."
There wero others who wore hurt, and
that Is tho shape tho Nebraskans were In.
Hof ever, It Is a matter of great pride to
every Cornhuskcr that he can boast all
ho wilt of the stanchness ot his team, for
It Is all true. Handicapped as they wero,
crippled and outweighed, not a man turned
:tall nor .showed the white feather. They
had gone there to do all they know, and
they did it. They worked Just as bard and
desperately after 4ho scoro was 10 to 0
as at tho first of '(he game, though they
could not accomplish as much.
Proof of this Is tho condition In which
tho men carao home. Black-and bluo from
knees -to neck most of them were, and so
stiff and sore that any motion waa a pain.
Thby "were not even nble to get out for
practice, till fast Wednesday. Downcast, It
Is true, b.ut. not disheartened, the spirit of
tho boys was well spoken In a remark of
Assistant Coach W. H. Mcltord, who aatd:
L, "It Is, not so bad. We have a whole sea
son nhoad or. us, wltn every nrignt pros
pect." Need of a Good Kicker.
It Is not difficult to sec where the laok
of a good klcke worked against Nebraska
and It can be conservatively said that this
ono feature was what was responsible for
the, wearing out of .tho team, (or the killing
off of tho men, for tho big score. Sand
Ion the gamo, but kicking built tho score.
For Instance, If Nebraska had possessed
a fifty or sixty-yard punter, she could
havo adopted a kicking game entirely Just
as soon ns sho saw that it was useless to
.try and run tho ball. In that manner,
though It would not bo. a winning game, It
would not bo a losing one. For Nebraska
could havo kept tho' ball away down, the
field and away from her goal practically
all tbo time. The Cornhuskcrs demon
strated on many occasions their ability to
hold Minnesota for downs on a pinch, and
after kicking away down tho field they
could undoubtedly havo taken the ball away
from tho Gophers before those giants got
It. clear up to the goal and then tho Ne
braskans could kick It back onco more, In
stead qf trying to fight It back.
They would not have worn then) out and
thoy would therefore havo strength left
for the supreme efforts that corao every
now and then. Again, If Minnesota kicked
tho pigskin back instead of'runnlng it, No
braska would have It and could kick again,
gaining ground every; time, for Knowlton
Is not a powerful punter. And thon, by
somo fumble on Minnesota's part, such
as Doblo made Just before, tho 'end of the
fame, Nebraska mlnH ot tU .ball near
tho Gopher goal arid possibly-, being 'fresh
and unharmod, score.
But what could bo, done when neither
Stringer 'nor Bender was able to kick more
than twenty-flvo -yards, and .most ot -tho
tlrao not even that far? It. was a hopejess
caso; EVcry exchange of kick's brought
tho ball' so much nearer Nebraska's goal
and gavo the lighter team Juat that much
less space in which to hold'tho big men
for downs and stop a touchdown,
i
Puntlnir Telia Sometime.
It Is plain that Nebraska's crying need
is a kicker, and a Rood kicker. That wall
went up all over Muincappjf. thai- nlgtit
from Nebraskans who knewthe game: and
had watched tho progress of, tho" Corn
buskers all through tho, year's ,go'ne by.
Two years ago Benedict, playing halfback
on the poorest team that Nebraska has had
for' five years, made a Bcore pf, .twenty
points against, Kansas, the champions at
that-time, simply by kicking flvo place kick
goals from the field. It was a most phe
nomenal 'and unusual performance, but It
allowed a team which overy eleven In tho
west bad been drubbing to score heavily
against the champions of the league in
which it was playing.
It is snfo to say that there are in Ne
braska several kickers who could have
mado that scoro as low as 6 to 0 against
Nebraska if the thing were properly and
ejovorly manipulated. Thero are men on
High school teams and little college teams
who con do hotter work than was done
there, and there aro a few who would have
shone far above Knowlton,
Take "Mike" Thomas of. .Crelghton, for
Instance. Slnco Benedict's departuro he Is
probably the best kicker In the state. He
can drive a fifty or sixty-yard spinning
point-on punt every time, and tho univer
sity people probably do not even know he
Is on earth. "Mike" Is also a suro tackier
and a good end or light back generally.
His speed ss a runner is remarkable. It
Is very probablo that ho could have been
brought to tho 'university this season had
un attempt been mado in that direction.
Ono such man would add a-lnrgo per "cent
to tho team's effectiveness, especially
against .weight or In a bad field.
Thcro are others, too, and even If there
were not, somo attention should bo given
to developing a kicker. Nebraska must
havo ono, soonor or later, and If one year's
work docs not suDIco to bring him out It
will at least "nut him so far ahead for the
next year. Of coutbo, a man must be some
thing besides a kicker. Ho must bo n
foot ball player ns well. So tho good men
In other departments ot the play should alt
take a hand and try to become kickers
It 1h never possible to tell whether or not
Ihcro Is a star hidden somowhero till they
havo nil been tried out. It Is true that,
due stress has never been placed on this
feature of foot ball at the university. In
fact, thcro Is no reason why some of the)
present team members trilght notshave been
coached up into good klokers by now,
NEBRASKA WEAK 'AT ROOTING
Cornhnskera Kail to Itecclre Proper
Vocnl Support from Ad-nilreri,
Ndbratka rooters must take a brace. They
learned a bitter lesson at Minneapolis and
It Is thought that this will be productive of
results. Tho vocal support' of their team
by the visitors was hopelessly bad. Not
only was the volumo shamefully small con
sidering the great number ot Nebraskans
who wero there, but the rooting had abso
lutely no courage or backbone to it. As
soon as the Cornhuskcrs began to weaken
before the terrific onzlaughts of the Mlnr.e
sotans the southerners closed their mouths
like clams and were silent, Instead 'of mak
ing still more frantic efforts to cheer their
men to a recovory'and n despcrato stand.
This action was pitiable, and there was no
excuse (or It. Nobraskans were thcro by
tho thousands and many of them were
bunchid together In the center section of
reserved seats, Just tho proper condition for
organized rooting, but It was not forthcom
ing when needed.
Booting Is now, undoubtedly a sclonco. It
Is recognlted as such In all tho big col
legos. Foot ball teams,, base ball players.
In (act, athletic representatives of any kind
engaged in any sort of a contest pray' for It,
demand It, beg' It. Without It they are
stout hearts Indeed that do not loso cour
age and dash and vigor. Kncouragcment Is
tho spur of all life In all phases. Hooting
Is nothing more nor less than encourage
ment, frantic, heartfelt, unanimous en
couragement. Minnesota's rooting was very near per
fection. In ono end of the bleachers at the
west side of tho grounds wis a megaphone
chorus of about 1,000 big horns. This band
acted aa tho nucleus and leader ot the nolso
and all tho other thousands kept In time
and tune with It. Tho uproar waa con
tinuous whenever Nebraska had the ball,
rising to a great roar whenover Quarter
back Drain was trying to give signals and
continuing in a sullen groan nt other times,
save when It burst out in a triumphant yell
during Minnesota's moments of victory.
Another variation waa tho singing of
various popular songs in perfect unison,
the words 'being localized to fit the oc
casion, Tho most effective atunt of all
those which the Gopher rooters employed
was the monotonous counting up of the
score as often as It was Increased. "One,
two, three," and so on to the top figure at
tained by Minnesota, tho northerners would
slowly chant tho sequence, and no other
yell threw the Cornliuskers Into, such i a
helpless and gnawing rage as ihat 'taunting
count. ,
With songs, yells and every other manner
of "root" at their command tho Nebraskans
went north. They Intended to give thoir
team tho support It needed and deserved,
and they had tho numbers to" do It right.
But, tbclr valor aeomcd to. vanish in ad
vorslty like chaff before the wind. They
seemed appalled by the lung power ot the
Gophers.
V
LOOKING AHEADT0 BADGERS
Nebraska's Next Die 'Game Will Be
with Wisconsin Eleven .on
NoTember 2.
As the next great team which tbo Ne
braska gridiron athletes will meet, the
University of Wisconsin foot ball eleven,
Is now an object of great Interest' to tho
Cornliuskers, with tho Minnesota game In
the past, there Is now nothing to think ot
and plan for but this contest with the Bad
gers on Novombor 2, and all .the western
era reallzo the intense' Importance of the
gamo. Upon Its outcomo depend the rank
and prestige that Nebraska shall have In
toot ball circles (or several years to come.
Had they won the Minnesota gamo they
would havo been established; but now thle
meet with the Badgers Is their last hope.
Moreover, the Northwestern game ou
Thanksgiving day at Lincoln also depends
oh this struggle, and the (act of tho mat
ter Is that the result at Minneapolis greatly
lessened Nebraska' chances to get the
Evanston school .out weat on November 28.
However, If tho boys can make a good
showing with Wisconsin Northwestern will
come.
So to that end all effort at the Corn
busker school Is being directed. The one
Intervening game, that with Ames next
Saturday at Lincoln, Is not feared, though
It will doubtless be a handsome contest.
Ames is strong and heavy, but not care
fully coached nor very clover, and Ne
braska should havo no trouble In defeating
tho agriculturists.
On Novcmhor 16'. Wisconsin plays Minne
sota at Madison. The Gophers defeated
them last year by a close margin and that
defeat still rankles in the breasts of the
wearers ot tho cardinal. They have sworn
to bo avenged and prospects are that they
will do anything in foot ball to attain that
end.
So Wisconsin Is looking right past the
Nebraska game to that of November 16.
However, Phil King has not forgotten
what the Cornhuskcrs did to Minnesota for
.a time on Northrop field, and he will put
In a good team against them, though It
may not be qulto as finely trained as It
will bo two' weeks later.
Though the Badger outlook for tho cham
pionship team which they expected to have
was Just a llttlo dark at first, everything
has now cleared up wonderfully. First of
all. Driver has finally been brought back
Into the game to play fullback. His loss
would hnve been one of the keenest., Then
in Foog a great quarterback has been dis
covered J.0 .take tho place left 'vacant11 by
"Activity" Tratt, He Is fast and sure a.nd
a fierce; defensive, player. Lastly, the
right guard position,' for which such fears
wore felt, has .been satisfactorily filled,

Violent calomel purges or griping salts are dan

They force out the obstruction by causing
violent spasms of the bowels, but they leave
the intestines weak and even less able to keep
up regular jnovements than before, and make a
larger dose necessary next time.
Then you have the pill habit, which kills more people than
the morphine and whiskey habits combined. ,
The only safe, gentle but certain bowel cleansers are sweet,
fragrant CASCARETS, because they don't force out the foecal
matter with violence, but act as a tonic on the whole 30 feet of
bowel wall, strengthen the muscles and restore healthy, natural
action. Buy and try them! (Look out for imitations and sub
stitutes or you can't get results. Cascarets are never sold in bulk.
Look for the trade-mark, the long 'tailed 4C' -on the box.)
You will find that in an entirely natural way yqur, bowels wiU

King says that Wisconsin would not today
chahgo Its backs for any In the country,
There Is tho plunger Larson, the sprinter
Coehems and the battcrlhgram Driver to
carry the ball, and the team docs not uso
any one else. Linemen aro not needed to
help it along. It they can play their places
that Is all that Is asked ot them.
And then the Badgers hnve developed a
field goal kicker. Juneae, right end, has
proved himself most proficient at that, and
In thq games thus far has done some fine
work In drop kicking. So with Driver to
punt tho team Is Btrong all around. In
weight the Badgers arc Just a good, big
team, probably outweighing Nebraska a
little, but being by no means giants.
Indications now are that another reduced
rate' wilt take Nebraskans to Milwaukee-
or Madison, wherever tho, game Is played,
but this will not be so cheap as tho Min
neapolis charge. However, for $7 or 18 u
great many Nebraskans would go. They
know now what a great thing It Is to make
a showing lis a, strango land. .
C0RNHUSKERS NOW WEALTHY
Nebraska Font Dnll Team Ones .ntii
Insr and la Thonsanda to
(he Good.
For tho first tlmo In its history the Uni
versity ot Nebraska foot ball team Is pros
perous. The recent gamo between the uni
versities ot Nebraska and Mlnnospta at
Minneapolis was more profitable from a
financial standpoint to each team than, any
cither had ever played. Tho Nebraskans
Came homo with Just S4.739.89 as their
share. From this tho expenses ot tho
Cornhuskcr team were paid, amounting to
about $700 In all. That left a llttlo more
than 4,000 net profit.
An equal division ot the gross receipts
was made, so tho Gopher share was tho
same as Nebraska's. Tho expenses of the
northerners wero -equally as great, as thoy
go Into things on a very broad basis.
Minnesota, has had .other groat games at
Minneapolis and elsewhere, and at tho
Wlsconsln-Mlpncsota gamo last year the
crowd was as largo as the ono of October
12 last. The reason why tho receipts from
tho later contest exceeded all others, how
ever, was becauso tho prices wero raised
beyond anything that had ever beforo been
charged.
Regular reserved seats were $2, box seats
$2.50 and tho general admission tl. This
scale was Just CO cents higher than that
usually In forco at Minneapolis, and down
at Lincoln $1 .Is the most that has over
been charged for reserved scats, most
games being played for GO cents admission.
This one gamo has put foot ball and in
fact all athletics squarely on their feet
at the University of Nebraska. Bvery year
till this there has been a deficit to carry
(rom previous seasons nnd tho burden has
been so great as to koep down the standard
ot (oot ball. Last year tho great Minne
sota game reaped sufficient profit to wlpo
out entirely this debt of long years stand
ing, but thero was nothing left to speak
of when this was done.
This big surplus of $4,000 coming all In
a bunch la Just so much "velvet" for the
team to "go on," and makes possible for
tho first time In the history ot Nebraska
university foot ball tho realization of ath
letic ambitions, and 'dreams that have here
tofore seemed 'far in tho distance. It
means' the final accomplishment of many
adjupcts and features of a foot ball squad
.which, will put tho gamo In Nobraska on
a. plane with Us .condition In tho big col
leges bt the middle west.
Any number of these Improvements may
be cited. First ot.all Is a, training table, a
real one, rigidly conducted add .controlled.
That' Nebraska has never had. None ot the
fastervteamn of the country pretend to do
without such a table for tbo men.
More money can bp spent on coaching.
Next year "Bummy" Booth will forsake the
gridiron for the practice of law. Nebraska
will need a new coach and will want tho
best in the land. Such a policy pays In
every particular. Without a man as good
aa Booth the school could nevor have de
veloped such a team as would enable It to
play Minnesota two years In .succession and
make such a .good showing against tho
Gophers the 'first year that Wisconsin would
give It a gamo the next.
Ever since the Badgers secured the fa
mous Phil King on a five-year contract at
tho .big sum of $3,S00 a year' that team has
been at the top In western toot ball. With
Nebraska It will be the same. The best
coach available In the land should be hired
It possible and the selection will bo fruitful
In results.
Than, a' considerable expenditure may well
be mado In providing .now and Improved
equipment for tho men, both in foot ball
apparel -and training appliances, Tho ath-.
letlc field, at the university can bo greatly
Improved. In also It Is ideal for foot ball,
but thero la a portion of t down In the
northeast corner that could be Improved by
belng graded up to the general level, and
then the entire gridiron would bo on a
perfect plane. The next thing would be the
building ot adequate bleachers and reserved
seat sections around a large portion of the
field. That would not only give , the proper
accommodations' for the crowd and permit
or higher admission prices, but, It would also
keep the people quiet in oho spot. Thus
tho nuisance of having a great mass ot
spectators swaying along tho sidelines with
tho ball and surging against the' wlros
would be abolished. '
All these possibilities, the accomplish
ment of which aro now nearly a mattor of
choice for the 'varsity, would put tho foot
bail team on a high tooting for the first
time. '
