Two Fast Games on
Local Grid Today
Cambridge Clashes With
Creighton Central and
It South.
Two fast games of football are
promised to fans this afternoon when
Cambridge high school's tyim and
Creighton prep's team clash and the
Central grldsters tangle with the
husky Packers. Both of the -games
will- be played at Creighton field. The
first Is to be called at 1:30 and the
second at 3:30.
Cambridge comes to tackle Creigh
ton and intends to win. They have
a strong team, a team that has a
string of good games at Its back so
far this season. Creighton Is as de
termined to win and has an equally
enviable record at their back for the
season's performances. They will
play the second game of the day.
South high school has suffered hut
one defeat this season at *the hands
of a state conference tVani, the Lin
coln game, played as an opener to
the season. The Central grldsters
have not as yet been defeated by a
state team, but were taken to a hu
milntlng defeat at the hands of Sioux
City two weeks agp.
The Central boys learned their les
son in the Sioux City game, however,
and are now not so confident that
they have an easy time ahead of
them. The cock sureness that mark
ed their attitude on their departure
for the lair of the Soos is gone now
and In Its place is a grim determln
atlon to play football and play It all
of the time.
School Standings
First at College
Stanford University, Cal., Oct. 25.—
Stanford may lose football games
this season, but It will lose no foot
ball player If Coach Andy Kerr has
his way. He is through with “flunk
outs.” Athletes who put emphasis
on their physical education at the ex
pense of their academic rating are
X to be a thing of the past. v
“We are going to keep accurate
check on all football candidates
through the gymnasium offices here
after,” Kerr has told his men. "We
are to receive regular reports from
faculty members from whom you are
receiving Instruction, and when a
man Is reported low in a cpttse he Is
through with football until he Is re
tuned to good standing. When your
grades go down, you automatically
leave the squad. Wrhen your grades
go up, tf they go up far enough, you
come back. I'm through with players
who are Bluffing off their work. This
is no bluff. We may lose games this
season by disqualifying players, but
we will at least not lose any of our
men.”
McCook Claims Credit
Despite Defeat in Game
McCook, Neb., Oct. 25.—I'esplte a
crippled .back field and the fact that
the team was outweighed, the McCook
team put up a game fight against
Arapahoe when they took their first
defeat of the season In a hotly con
tested game last week.
The Arapahoe team outweighed
the McCooks 10 pounds to the man.
Then they only defeated them 10 to 6.
The fumbling on the part of Arapa
■ hoe, due chiefly to the very muddy
condition of the field, was the only
chance that McCook had to hold
them. Forward passes enabled the
McCook team to score their one
touchdown.

Central City, Oct. 25.—With a sad
ly weakened_ltne the Central college

for an indefinite length of time witn
a badly infected 1%. Ray Barnes,
a badly Infested leg. Ray Barnes,
veteran of Central college and Whit
tier college, sprained his ankle the
other day and the injury promises to
keep him on the sidelines for several
weeks Tinney and Engel, star guards,
have quit football because of Its In
terference with other work.
There was no wealth of material to
fall back on In this emergency and
Coach P. C. Thorniley Is up against
it. But he Is doing his best and
will put as good a team as possible
Into the field for one of the hardest
games on the college schedule.
Midland college, In the meantime, is
coming right along and drilling a
stronger squad every' day.
With the improvement of the team
.Coach Speyr steadily becomes more
and more confident of victory. The
only game that worries him at all,
now, is the one November 2 witn
Grand Island. The ancient rivals of
the Fremonters promise a hard fight
and Speer is drilling his squad and
hoping for the best.

showing more pep, more enthusiasm

He was landed in the middle of
the room, cursed for a prowling thief,
his protestations silenced, his pockets
searched, and when they yielded noth1
Ing, his body stripped of its clean,
wholesome clothing and he was pitch
ed down the stairs, lie appealed to
several people, and found that the
less he said the safer he was. He
snatched a towel from a basket of
clothes before a door, twisted It
around him, and ran down the sire--'
to Mickey's fr6nt entranc. With all
his remaining breath he sped up
flight after flight of stairs and ai
Inst reached the locked door, only to
find that the key was In the pocket
of his stolen trousers, snd he could
not force his way with his bare hands.
He oould only get to his clothing by
trying the fire escapes agaip. He was
almost too sick to see or cling to
the narrow iron steps, but that time
he counted carefully and looked un
I til he was sure before he entered.
He found his clothes, and in the in
tense heat dressed himself, hut he
could not open the door. He sat on
the fire escape to think.
Presently he espied one of the
men who had robbed him watching
him from another escape, and being
afraid and beaten sore, he crept into
the heat, and lay on the bed beside
the window. After a while a breath
of air came in, and Junior slept the
sleep of exhaustion. When he awoke
it was morning, las head aching, his
mouth dry, and the room cooler.
Glancing toward the door he saw it
standing open and then noticed the
disorder of the room, and of himself,
and sat up to find he was on the
floor, onro more disrobed, and the
place stripped of every portable thing
in it, even the bed, little stove, and
the trunk filled with clothes and a
few personal possessions sacred to
Mickey because they had been his
mother's. The men had used the
key in Junior's pocket to enter while
he slept, drugged him, and carried
away everything. He crept to the
door and closed It, then sank on
the floor and cried until he again be
came unconscious. It was 4 o'clock
that afternoon when Mickey looked
in and understood the situation, lb
bent over Junior's bruised and bat
tered body, stared at his swollen,
tear-stained face, and darting from
the room, brought water, and then
food a nil clothing. Redressed and
fed, Junior lay on the floor and said
to Mickey; 'Go to the nearest phono
and call father. Tell him I’m sb-k
to come in a hurry with the car.”
' Sure!” said Mickey. ' Rut hadn't
we better wait til morning now arid
get you rested and fed up a little?”
''No,” said Junior. ''The sooner he
sees the fix I'm in the better he will
realize that I’m not a quitter; but
that this ain't Just the place for me.
Mickey, did you ever g - through this'
Why do I get it s-i awful hard?
"It's because the regulars can tel.
a mile off you are country. Junior,"
said Mickey. "All my life I’ve been
on the streets so they knew mo for
city born, and supposed I'd friends to
trace them and back me If they
abused me; and then, I always look
ahead sharp, and don't trust a living
soul about alleys. You say the next
escape but one? I've got to flr.d
them, and get took my things. 1
want mother's, and Lily and I can't
live this winter with no bed, and no
stove, and nothing at all."
"I'm sorry about your motjier's
things, Mickey, hut don't worry over
the rest.” said Junior. "Pa and Ma
won't ever he willing to give up
Peaches again. I can see that right
now. and if they keep her, they will
have to take you. too. lie-cuuse of
course you can't he separated from
her, your goods. I'll pay back. 1
owe you a lot as it is, but I got some
money in the bank, and I'll have to
sell my Bheep."
Junior laid his head on his arm
and sohbed weakly.
"Don't Junior." said Mickey. "I
feel Just awful about this. I thought
you had a place that would earn your
supper, and you had the room, and
would be all right."
"Why, of course"" said Junior.
Mickey looked Intently at him
"Now look here Junior," he said. "I
got to square myself on this. I didn't

"Course, if that’s the way you feel,

ior, let me finish tills much I was
trying to say. I knew Muliiopolis
wt uld do to you all It had done to me
and 1 knew you woudn’t like it: but
i didn't figure (Jh vour big frame arid

would show a inilo down the street. I
didn’t figure on you getting the show
I would, and I didn't intend anything
worse should happen to you than has

about sick ever this Junior. Don't
you want to go to Mr. Bruce's office—
I got a key and he won't care—don't
you want to go there arid rest a little,
and feed up better before I call your
father?"
"No, I don’t! I got enough and 1
know it! They must know it some
time: it might as well come at once."
"Then let's go out on the car," said
Mickey. "
“1 guess you don't realize just how
had this is,” said Junior. “You call
father, and call him quick and em
phatic enough to bring him."
"All light then," said Mickey.
"Here goes!"
"And put the call in nearest place
you can find and hustle hack." said
Junior "I’m done with alleys, and
sluggers and robl-ers. Goliath couldn't
hive held his own against two big
nun, when he was 15, and 1 guess
father won't think I'm a coward be
cause they got away with me. But
you hurry!"
".Sure! I’ll fly, and I'll get him if
I can."
"There's no doubt about getting
him. This is baked potato, bacon,
Mat kberry roll, honey and bread time
at our house. They wouldn’t he away
just now, and it's strange they have
been so much this week.”
Mickey gave Junior a swift glance;
then raced to the nearest telephone.
"You Mickey?" queried Peter.
“Yes. It's you for S. O. S . and I'm
to tell you to come on high, and lose
no time in starting."
"Am I to come, Mickey, or am I
too busy?"
You are to come, Peter, to my
room, and In a hurry. Things didn't
work according to my program."
"Why, what's the matter, Mickey?”
"Jiist what I told j^tu would be
when it nine to getting a job here;
but 1 didn’t figure on street sharks
picking on Junior and robbing him,
and following him to my room, and
siiugglng him ’til he can’t walk. You
come, Peter, and come in a hurry,
and Peter—”
"You better let me start-" said
Teter.
"Yes, but Peter, one mlnut<V’ in
sisted Mickey. "I got something to
*ay to you. This didn't work out ns
1 planned, and J'm awful sorry, and
.%ou'll be. too. But Junior is cured
done enough to suit you: he won't
ever want to leave you again, you
can hank on that—and he ain't hurt,
permanent: but if yotl have got any
thing in your s-stem that sounds
even a little bit like 'I told you so.'
f rget it on the way in, and leave in
str uctions with the family to do the
same. See? Junior is awful sore!
lie don't need anything rubbed in
in the way of reminiscences. He's
ready to do the talking. See?”
“Yes. You're sure he ain't really
hurt?” , i
"Sure!” said Mickey. "Three days
will fix him. but Peter. It's been
mighty rough! Go easy, will you?"
"Mickey have you got money-”
"Ail we need. Just you get here
with the car. and put in a comfort
and pillow. All my stuff is gone!"
Peter Senior arrived in a surprising
ly sin rt time, knelt on the floor and
li nked closely at his sleeping boy.
"Naked and beaten to insensibility,
you say?"
Mickel nodded.
"Nothing to eat for nearly two
days?"
Another affirmation. Peter arose,
pushed back his hat and wiped the
sweat from his brow.
"1 haven't been thinking about any
thing but him ever since he left, he
said, "and what makes me the sorest
is that the longer ! think of it. th ■
surer I get that this la my fault. 1
didn't raise him right:”
"Aw w ah Peter!' protested Mickey.
"I've got it all studied out," said
Peter, "and 1 didn't! There have been
two mistakes. Junior's and mine, and
of the two, mine is twice as big as
the boy's."
Peter stooped and picked up his
son. who stirred and awakened. When
he found himself in his father's arms
Junior clung to him and whispered
over and over: "Father, dear father! '
Peter gripped him with all his might
and whispered back: "Forgive ine,
my son! Forgive me!"
"Well. I don't know what for?"
sobbed Junior.
"You will before long.” said Peter.
He drove to a cool plac e, and let the
car stand while he called his wife.
She was waiting at the gate when
they came. Sh<‘ never said a word ex
cept to urge Junior to sit up to the
table and eat his supper. But Junior
had no ‘appetite.
"I want to run things here for a
few’ minutes.'' lie said. “When the
children finish, put them to tied, and
then let me tell you, and you can de
cide what you’ll do to me."
"Well, don't you worry about that,"
said Peter
