Husker-Sooner Game Opens Field First Conference Game of Season Will Be First in New Stadium. Lincoln, Oct. 10—Still stinging Under the decisive defeat sustained Saturday at the hands of Bob Zup pke's mini, the Nebraska football team lost no time after its return here in beginning to prepare for the invasion of Bennie Owen and his Oklahoma Sooners. Word from the Sooner camp shows that Bennie Owen is the same Bennie Owen of former years. He has been concentrating on an aerial attack, just as he always has done before, only this year he has something like 13 veterans—men who have come up under hla tutelage and therefore handle a football with the ease an average layman does a baseball. Oklahoma ad Nebraska have played four games, the Huskers winning all but one. That was In 1919 when a 7-7 tie developed. In 1921 the Ne braskans sloshed through mud and water to a 44 to 0 victory here and last year they perspired through a 39 to 7 win at Norman in the face of a hot, dusty wind. Better weather conditions would be a welcome change for both teams when they line up Saturday here for the first game to be played In the new memorial stadium. The first time Nebraska and Okla homa played was in 1912 when the Huskers withdrew with a 13 to 9 "vic tory. Owen was on hand at TJrbana and watched the Huskers perform against Illinois. Oklahoma has not yet played this season and consequently no def inite line can be gotten on Its strength. Oklahoma correspondents have been flinging considerable "bear” from the Sooner camp to the effect that the freshman team looks better than the varsity but the Nebraskans are not easing off In face of these reports. , The Saturday game opens the con » ference season for both the Huskers and Oklahoma. Speaker Denies Engagement. Cleveland. O., Oct. 10.—Reporta that Tris Speaker, manager of the Cleve land Indian*, is engaged to marry Miss Frances Cudahy of Cleveland were denied tonight by the Speaker and Miss Cudahy. Speaker admitted giving Miss Cudahy a large diamond ring, but both he and Miss Cudahy denied that it signified their engagement. The ring was merely a present, they said.. Speaker left tonight for a two weeks’ fishing trip at Rainy Lakes, Ontario. On his return he will go to his home at Hubbard, Tex. World Series Squibs Long before the sun began doing Its stuff today, several hundred baseball fans were lined up at the general ad mission gales of the Yankee stadium. One wife sent a wire of thanks to John McGraw. She said it was the first time she's been able to get her husband out of bed in the morning since last October. Mi A Brooklyn man claimed he had been waiting in line so long that he forgot what he was waiting for. He went home to find out and when he came hack his place was gone. Another guy went up to the box of fice and said he planned on seeing all the games hdt he didn't have any money. He wanted to know if he could open a charge account. He said he walked all the way from St. Louis to bet on the Yank»es. The chances are he'll have to walk back there too. Of course, the Yankees have a glad chance of copping, the only thing that could possibly keep them from winning it, is the Giants. But tti« games will be on the square. Judge Landis has given us cleaner baseball and fresher peanuts. There’s bound to be a lot of ex citement this afterncton. Babe Ruth hae promised to put the ball over the fence even if he has to send it by express. So far, the hero of the world's se ries haen't been picked, but judging from the number of cops they've got around the gates, it'll probably be the fellow who gets in for nothing. One of the umpires bought a cou ple of tickets to give away. With 65, 000 people In the stadium, he wants to have at least two friends among *"r them. Nobody seems to want to guess on the outcome of today's game except Miller Huggins and yesterday he wan the whole series In the Yankee locker room. • He called all the player* together and told them that they were going to win the pennant. When MoGraw heard about it ho got no sore he tried to have Huggins arrested for perjury. But the manager of the Yankees has hired a first elass orchestra and every time Babe Rut-h steps up to the bat he's going to have them start playing "There’s No Place Like Home." Thousands of women are expected at the stadium today, but most of them will sit in a different section of the bleacher;-' mo that the men can enjoy the game too. The betting around New York Is very heavy. A lot of guys are such reckless gamblers that they're willing to bet the shirt off their hack hut they’ve taken the precaution to put on an extra pair of underwear. So much motley has been placed on the Giants that If the Yankees win half the men in the bleachers will look like they’ve been playing strip poker. The weather here is so chilly that tho fans who haven't been able to get their overcoats out of pawn arc tak . mg hot water hags along with them. Whether the Giants or Yankees win this afternoon's game, the balance of them will lie Just ns exciting, because the man who invented baseball did such a good Job of It. that he made It impossible for both teams to lose the world's series EDDIE’S FRIENDS When Kdilie Is .Seen With a Bundle.

U*C Olympic Backs Work Out Inside _ Two more former Nebraska grid iron performers were last night added to the roster of the Omaha Olympics club in preparation for the opening game of the season next, Sunday against the Tecumseh Wonder team at league park. They are Bob . Russell. Omaha youth, former Central high gridster and quarterback on the Cornhusker team last year. It was Russell who piloted the Cornhuskers to victory over Notre Dame which crowned the achievement ot the Huskers' 1922 schedule. The other former Husker is Carl Peterson, "The flghtin’est center Ne braska ever had." Both Russell and Hartley joined the Olympic backfield last night In a private signal drill, indoors. Chic Hartley and Edson Shaw, both former captains of Corn husker eleven*; Geye Leahy, former Creighton star, and half a dozen other candidates for backfield berths took part In the signal drill, under direction of Coach Shaw. Three former Nebraska captains are (o be In the Olympics' lineup. They are Edson Shaw, captain in 1917 who was named all western tackle; Clar ence Swanson, captain of the Husker team two years ago who was named all American end, and Chic Hartley, captain of the victorious Huskers of 1922. Tecumseh Is to be represented by a former Denver university backfipld star, three Hastings college stars, one West Point cadet who held a line position on the cadets' team in 1919 and 1920, one former Colorado college mii, and other lights of football world several years ago. Tecumseh has not been able to in veigle? any other team in either Ne braska or Iowa to play them this season, according to Manager R. C. Martin. “We have offered every in ducement for games both at home and abroad," said Martin last night over long distance. "But the Olympics Is the only club that has taken our challenge.” Last year the Tecumseh team played the Olympics to a 0-to-0 tie. On the last game of the season the same teams met again and the Olympics emerged victorious. 13 to 0. World Series Stars. JIMMY O’CONN ELI, .. Outfielder, New York Giants. Another expensive experiment of McGraw's, although not exactly a successful one to date. James is said to have coat the Giants 175,000 ( ne full season before he was allowed to come east by the San Francisco club. He hit well above .300 in the Coast league for two seasons, but was unable to repeat In the National this year and. after being given every chance to make good, was benched by McGraw In favor of Stengel and Cunningham. O’Connell Is declared to have perfect hatting form, however, and expert* agree that he will come to Ills best some time In the more or less immediate future. He Is hard ly likely to figure prominently In the present series, however. James was born in California 21 years ago, hats left handed, throws right, Is five feet 10 Inches tall and weighs 170 pounds. HAKVKY HKNDKICK. Substitute Outfielder, New York Yankee*.

The 16 survivors of the qualifying round include Mrs. Dorothy Camp bell Hurd, Merlon. Pa., former na tional champion and winner of the medal in yesterday's play, turning In a card of 80. which broke the women's record for the course; Mrs. Alice Han chett, San Francisco, and Mis* Flor ence Halloran, Salt Lake City. A cloth with equal parts of sweet oil and lime water applied tb a burn will bring great relief. Omaha Uni Squad Slowly Mending Omaha university football mem are slowly mending after their hard fought game of last Saturday. The daily practice is light, principally signal drill. Yesterday two of the injured players were on the side lines watching the squad go through the drill. They were Peterson, his band In gplints, and Sozendaugh, moving about with the aid of a cane. The game that was scheduled with Central college for Thursday has been called off because of the condition of the team. It is now hoped that a light scrimmage will he arranged be tween the Omaha university and the Technical High school squad for Thursday afternoon. If everything goes well the team will meet the Tarkio eleven In their next scheduled game. The event Is slated for October 20 and promises to be good. g The Omaha team Is In a condition (hat Is Just the reverse of last year. It was the line that troubled the men tor last year because it was so light, the backfieid was exceptionally heavy and looked good, until the line gave way. This year It is the backfieid that is causing all the worry and grief. The line will average about 185 pounds to each man but the backs are distressingly light. The four men behind the line are fast, however, and the hopes of the school are pinned In their ability to “get through” any hole that the linemen may create. The practice scrimmage Thursday will show whether or not the team Is ready for another game. At pres ent they look bad. Many of the un injured players failed to show up at practice and those, added the large hospital list, made the group who wore out look pitifully small. Central Seconds Victors in Game “Woe unto Tech High," is the Pur ple clan's motto this year. The sec ond team started off with a bang yesterday when they defeated the Ma roon and White reserves hy an over whelming score of 27 to 0. The Central athletes were well rep resented with three full teams of gridsters, most of whom got Into the game. After the first touchdown. Coach Bexten sent in his second Htringers against the Cuming street lads, but the gold-jeraeyed eleven pcored almost at will against the Drummond reserves. Central's passing was good, netting one, of the touchdowns, when Jean Caldwell, halfback, took the hall out of the air and went 30 yards for a touchdown. Caldwell's line plunging and ability to snag passes were fea tures of the contest. His run for 35 yards and another touchdown through a broken field was the high spot of the game.
