Tha crowd which left the grounds waa a satisfied one, and a crowd which will ba back In fore for today's races. In general, the races were of a good quality, and although In oe race, that for cars coating under $1,000, the drivers seemed to lao klnterest because ot the fact that there were but two entries, all , tha other races were run 1 good, fait ' lima Nn heartrending finishes, . for which enthusiasts are wont to languish. were had, but time ;ind time again the daredevil driving of the men at the wheel . brought tha crowd to Its ,feet Motorercl Race First. . Th first event run off waa the fifteen mile rac for one-cyilnder motorcycles, and seven machine atarted. Th Harley- . Davidson cycl ridden by Marshall took th lead at the start and held It, for a bit over flv mile, when the Excelsior, with George Brldenbecker on board, passed It up ad held acomfortable lead to th end. Two machines, the Thor, ridden by Beck, and lha Excelsior, which Stiles rod, dropped out before the finish. The Hariey-Davldson cycle finished i second place, and aonther Excelsior, with H. Mc Frln riding, cam in third. The rac for the small, cheaper car was a slow one and waa contested by but two cars, a HupmcMte, driven by Walter Smith, . And a Buick, with II.' E. Ouderklrlrat th wheel. This rat had been scheduled as a ten-mile race, but an error waa made by th officials in Instructing the drivers that It was to be but flv mliea In length and It waa accordingly stopped at the fifth ' circuit. The Buick won the event with a lead of perhapa fifty feet after the cars had jockeyed for the lead all through the race. Five cars wer at th ole for th five mil rac for regularly equipped cars and after th Veil, driven by Otto Nestman. ' bad held th lea dfor one lap, the Midland, wtth H. E. Nutting In control, took the first position and held it by a safe margin to the nd. George Helm, in hla Cadillac, ended In second place, while s Stoddard-Garford, driven by J. V. Oraves, took third money Th car which Nestman drove In this rat was a car which had been driven into the 4ty this morning by a gentleman from Bennington. Neb., and was only entered In th rac at th laat moment, without any preliminary tuning up. This car dropped out in th third mil, whil th American, wtth George Edwards at 1h wheel, de serted during th first round. rniwll TartUInc Th free-for-all rac for motorcycle probably produced th most thrills of any of th afternoon's events. There were ten aavchin In this event and although th Indian, ridden by Walter Bell, took the lead and held It through th race, the con test for the minor positions was so close a to keep Interest at a high point- Bell finished hack and nock with John Heth, wha took second place, having- "lapped"' him. Third place went to tn Indian ma chine ridden by Gamble. The only thing approaching an accident during the entire afternoon occurred in this race. During the thirteenth mile, Gamble, who waa letting hla machine out to the very limit, ran Into th Excelsior, ridden by H. McKartane. striking It on th front wheei. The foree of the blow toppled Mo Farlan' machine ever and, although Gamble got away absolutely unharmed, Mc Farlane' machine fen tn such a A ay a la upset Louis Flesher. who was Inflowing on his Mere I. A beautiful mlxup en.tued, but there were so very serious results. Me Fartane was nut hurt at all and Fleshar was only Slightly bruised about the chest. M'Var!ane' wneei wa pretty badly smashed, however. The lent event of the card, th free-for-all i fifteen mil race, waa th very best of the . automobile events. Eight machines faced the starter and every on of them finished the i ace. The National machine, wtth Frank Sloan at th wheel. Jumped Into the lead almost at the firs turn and when it looked like a walkaway the Staver racing! marhine began to close up the gap. At the end of tha second mile It panned the Nav tll and itself held the lead throughout the regaining mile of th long rua. The National car leeiued fit, but a tendency on the part vt the driver to alow down and run wide In n. iking the turn lost it tha lead. vveBsje te Casey trim.

Omaha, 7; Topeka, 2. Ta Rourke's Vinton atreet matinee yes terday afternoon opening th engagement of a playing troup from Topeka, proved a rather cold reception to the Kansans. Ens ley, loading man for the company, waa not exactly a star, for during the seven Innings he was In th spotlight he allowed the local cast the lovely total of nine safe hits. Omaha played a fast game of ball. The two punk piwys accredited to Messrs. Acock and Schoonover were not ao bad, and in view of tha game each of these Rourkcs put up their little mlsplays did not cail forth criticism. While Holienbeck favored th visitors with seven hits, six singles and a triple, he kept them so well spread out along the way that they did very . lltt.e damage. Oadman brought up memories of days gone by when he batted a perfect score three singles in three times up and on top of that played an errorless game behind the bat. Kane, King and Holienbeck were also preeent for th stick swinging and each of the trio hit twice In three trials. All of which goes to show that yesterday was a good day' for the batting averages of sev eral locals. uuuie Won at Start.

Sept. 10.-(8peclal.)-CompiHsory support of athletics will be dis cussed Tuesday morning at the regular meeting of the Board of Regent Of th University of Nebraska. Already a measur providing for th col lection ot a IB fee from every student regis tering In any department of the university has been submitted to the chancellor and will be taken before the regents. Not only is It planned to make the fee cover athletic at the university, but to provide support for debate, th Dally Nebraskan, the Gle club and the Dramatic club. During th last week, the athletic board haa been con sidering the plan and the members hav arrived at the conclusion that It Is the only manner to replenish the treasury. The new foot ball field, ball diamond and cinder path left the board with a debt of over $1,000. With the approach of tha foot ball season. It was found that additional funds would be required to start the full training. Thus another loan will be nego tiated until the foot baU receipts are suf ficient to tide the management over th financial difficulties. Nor have the university students' sup ported athletics in the last three years. Big games have failed to attract the crowds and a a result the management was com pelled to schedule games with professional teams which would prove a drawing card. Heretofore the Omaha games has always been a "gold mine" for . the manager, but there will be no Omaha game this year. Of th 4,000 students attending th univer sity last year only about a fourth took ad vantage of the 13 rata offered for season . tickets to all athletic events at the Corn husker Institution, Including foot ball, baa baU, basket ball and track. Under - such conditions, the athletic board believe th time is ripe to Inaugurate a system of compulsory support. " ( Boar A Members Yirof President Richards of the. board and other prominent member cling to the Idea that students should ' petition the . board of regents to pass a measure providing for a compulsory fee. With this end In view th Innocents were asked to assist, but nothing haa been done and the fall term ia now at hand. The action ot the board will be binding for 1910. If the regents decide to adopt a fee system in athletics, it will practically Insure the financial success of the season for approximately $10,000 will be realised from tho fees. While the exact proportion of the fee to be devoted to athletics has not been fixed. It will probably be" $3." The remainder will be divided between the de bating, the glee club and the Nebraskan funds. The only student activity left out la the Coinhusker, and a that haa been well supported, the authorities thought that there was no call for a change. Other branches of university activities aa well aa athletics will welcome the com pulsory fee system. For year th debating; board has been 'drawing on Its credit at the bank and In the end the university had to make good the deficit. Lack of support put the glee club out of college Ufa for two years although an unsuccessful attempt was made last spring to revive . It. Th dramatic club has suffered equally from lack of financial support and only large attendances at tha annuat play keep th organisation Impact Bven the college paper, the Dally Nebraskan, Is sufferings severely from the lethargy of college spirit among the students at Nebraska. Two exceptionally able business 'manager en abled the paper to accumulate a surplus, but this has been eaten up and the man agement, was compelled to cut down th six of the sheet.
