AfcL-YEAR COACH AT U. OF 0.
Plant Made to Put Training of
Athletes Under One Head at
Omaha Institution.
MORE ORGANIZATION IS SCHEME
A movement to have an all-year coach
wa launched by the student of the Unl
veralty of Omaha at a special meeting
of the Gateway club Wednesday after
noon. A petition to thla effect, sinned by
the entire student body, has been pre
sented to Dr. D. E Jenkins, president of
the school.
Ever since athletic were Inaugurated
at the school a separate coach hss been
used for each branch of aport. The re
sult has been far from satisfactory. The
poor showing made by the eleven during
the 1814 sea-son showed more than, ever
that the separate coach system waa a
failure. The various coaches selected
seemed to know but little save that of
the work Jn their own department, the
result bftng that many athletes of
promise were only encouraged to take
part in certain branches of aport. Keen
coach had a new system of training,
which worked havoo with the pre :ou
work.
Dr. D. B. Jenkins, president of the
school, ctated Thursday afternoon that
he looked with favor upon the one-coach
system and that he would probably take
stepa.to secure a suitable coach, for the
1915 season.
At the Gateway meeting' the student
body decided to continue having student
manager for th different athletic de
partments. Hamucl fclotky. a- Junior, was
elected foot ball manager for th 1915 sea-

CRYING NEED0F ROAD LAWS
Senator Lahner Declares Here is
Place for Legislature to Exer
cise Real Statesmanship)
PRESENT SYSTEM GREAT WASJE-
j (From a Staff Correepondent.
LINCOLN. Jan. 8. (Speclsl.)-Senator
Lahner' plan of road-making la to do
away with the one-man boss system for
esch precinct and to Install In his place
four men with more authority. The plan,
thinks fhe senator, would Insure th tax
payers greater efficiency and would stop
up the leaks under the old system.
Mot Idle Dream.
None of this road talk Is an idle dream
with the senator. He is a practical ex
ponent of road work. He is Superin
tendent of the Meridian highway through
the northern part of Thayer county and
the part which he oversees Is of th
"turnpike" variety, such as would glad
den the hearts of easterners.
"Talk about doing away with legisla
tive employes," said the senator today.
"Why, all the money wasted by legisla
tures of the past Isn't a drop In the
bucket compared with the moiy that
has been dumped out of the pocket of
the taxpayers in road work over tha
state.
Present Plaus Profligacy.
"It Is utter profligacy to continue the
present system. I hope that the people
of the state will get behind a movement
to do away with the present road laws
and to enact In their stead laws thst ar
on a parity with business administration
of all the affair of state government."
