Teams Are Ready
For Big Contest
Notre Dame to Reach Lincoln
Today—Both Team#
End Practice.
i.incoln, Nov. }..—Today brought
tho last hard workout of the Nebras
ka football squad in preparation for
the game with Notre Dame Saturday.
It has been a week of strenuous
drilling behind lockod gates and Ne
braska is ready. The Indiana war
riors, 30 or more strong, are on their
way to Lincoln and are expected to
arrive tomorrow morning. There will
be tapering off practice during Fri
day afternoon for both teams, but
neither will take any risks in scrim
mage play. Based on the season s
record, all the odds are against Ne
braska, but neither Coach Dawson,
Captain Lewellen and the list of reg
ulars of the Cornhusker eleven are
willing to concede defeat in advance.
The attendance promises to break
the record on the local field. There
will he a number of notables in the
grandstands. Major General Duncan,
commander of the Seventh corps
area, with his staff, have their reser
vations made. Tommy Gibbons, the
pugilist, Is, planning to be on hand
and nearly a hundred American
Legion post commanders from over
the state havo asked for seats. Gov
ernor Bryan and several other state
officers have announced their inten
tion of seeing the game. A delega
tion said to be nearly 1,000 strong
is booked to arrive from Kansas City
tomorrow night or Saturday morn
ing.
Beginning in 1015 and extending
over a period of eight years, Nebras
ka and Notre Dame football teams
have met on the gridiron. Saturday's
game will be the ninth time these
teams have faced each other.
A glance over previous scores tells
a story more plainly than countless
f 'words of descriptive matter. It isn’t
the sweetest story ever told. It's a
story of 22 youths with game hearts
who have annually given their best
to win for the institutions they rep
resented.
Ticket sales for the coming .Satur
day are indicative of the feeling
which exists in this section over a
Notre Dame football game.
A list of ticket purchasers and the
distances they are traveling to see
the game would probably be surpris
ing if it was accurately complied.
These spectators have been coming
for eight years to see a battle and
they've never been disappointed yet.
Notre Dame. 35 strong, is heading
this way, and will arrive Friday
morning. They have been waiting
just a year to avenge a defeat sus
tained last year, which closed their
season. The manner In which they
have been going all season has made
them favorites to realize this ambi
tion.
Although the gatee have been
locked at stadium field all week. In
formation has seeped out that the
Huskers appear to have taken '■
brace. In early week scrimmage
practice thejr are said to have been
veritably manhandling the freshmen,
showing more fire than has been in
evidence all year.
The scores:
1916—Nebraska, 20; Notre Deme, 19.
1916— Nebraska, 0; Notre Dame, 26.
1917— Nebraska, 7; Notre Dame, 0.
191*—N-braaka. 0; Notre Dame, 6. 9
into—Nebraska, 9; Notre Dame, 14.
1920—Nebraaka, 7; Notre Dame, 16.
1911’—Nebraaka. 0; Notre Dame. 7
1922—Nebraaka. 14: Notre Dame, 6.

"The great Investigation Is over, so
far as our commission goes," answered
Mickey. "Multiopolis isn’t robbed
where she was sure she was. Her ac
counts balance in the departments
we've gone over. Nobody gets the slick
face, the glass eye, the lawn mower
on his cocoanut, or done the candy
suit from our work: but some folks I
love had a near squeak, and I got a
month vacation! Think of that, Miss
Lily Peaches O'Halloran! (Jee, let's
get things fixed up here ami have a
party, to show the neighboring gentle
meh what’s coming to them, before the
w'eather gets so cold they won’t have
timo to finish their Jobs this fall. Home
of them will squirm, but we don’t care.
Some of them will think they won’t
do it, but they will. Kiss me, Lily!
Hug me tight, and let me go dig on
the furnace foundation ’til I sweat
this out of me."
When the children were sleeping
that night he nut on the veranda and
told Mrs. Harding and Peter exactly
what he thought wise to repeat of the
day s experience and no more; so that
when he finished, all they knew was
that the investigation was over, so
far as Mr. Bruce was concerned, Mic
key had a vacation, and was a happy
boy.
As she came to dinner the next day.
Mary-laid a bundle of mail beside her
father's plate. When he saw it. Peter,
ns was his custom, reached for the
HeraJd to read the war headline. He
opened the paper, gave It a shake,
stared at It In amazement, scanned a
few lines and muttered: "Well for the
Lord’s sake!"
Then he glanced over the sheets at
Mickey and back again. The family
arose and hurried to a point of van
tage at Peter's shoulder, while he
spread the paper wide anil held It
high so that all of them could see.
Enclosed in a small ruTed space .they
read:
Sacred to the memory of the
biggest scoop.
That ev,r fell In Mister Chaff
ncr's soup.
And was pitched by this nicest
editor-man,
Where It belonged. In the
garbage can,
To please his friend, Michael
O'Hulloran.
Whoop fellers, whoop, for the
drownded scoop,
That d-parted this life In our
Editor's soup!
All together boyB, Scoop! Soup!
Whoop!
They rushed at Mickey, shook hands
thumped, patted and praised him.
when a wail arose to the point of
reaching his consciousness
"Mickey, what?" cried Peaches.
"Let me take It Just a minute,
Peter,” said Mickey.
"Walt a second.* suggested Mrs.
Harding, picking up a big roll that
they had knocked to the floor. "'This
doesn't look like catalogs, and It's
addressed to you. Likely they’ve
sent you some of your own.”
"Now maybe Mr. t'haffner did,”
said Mickey, almost at the bursting
point. "Course ho Is awful busy, the
busiest man in the world, I expeot.
but he might have sent me a copy of
my poetry, since he used It."
With shaking fingers ho opened the
roll, and there were several copies
of 'he Herald similar to the one Peter

scrawled In pencil: “Your place, youi

can't come too soon to suit me.—
Chaffner."
Mickey read It aloud.
"Gee!" he said. "1 'most wish I
had education enough to begin right
now. I'd like it! 1 could Just go crazy
about that Job! Yes, honey! Yc*', I'm
coming!"
He caught up another paper, and
hurried across the room, quietly but
decidedly closing the door behind him.
so when Mary started to follow.
Junior interposed.
"Better not, Molly.” he said.
"Mickey wants to be alone with his
family for a few minutes, gay father,
ain't there a good many newspaper
men worked all their lives, anil got no
such show as that?"
"I haven't a doubt of It," said Peter.
“Micky must have written that, and
sent It in before he came home yes
terday,” said Mrs. Harding. “I call
it pretty bright! I bet If the truth
was told, something went wrong, and
ho was at the bottom of shutting it
up. Don't you call that pretty bright.

“I guess I’m no fair Judge," said
Peter. "I’m that prejudiced In his
favor that when he said, See the cat
negotiate the rat’ out of the burn, I
thought it was smart."
"Yes, and It was," commented
Junior. “It's been funny for every
body to ‘negotiate’ all sorts of things
ever since that north pele business,
so It was funny for the cat, too
Father, do you th!nk that note really
means that Mr. Chaffner would give
Mickey a place on his paper, end puy
him right now?"
“I don't know why Phaffner would
write It out and sign his name to It
if he didn't mean It," said Peter.
“You know he Is full of stuff like
that," said Junior. "He could do
some every day about people other
than Peaches If he wanted to. Father,
ain’t you glad lies In our family?
Are you going to tell him to take
that Job If he asks you?"
"No I ain t," said i’eter. "He’s too
young, and not the book learning to

say soon as he read It, that he hadn t
the education yet? He's taken care
of himself too long to spoil his life
now, and he will see It; but I marvel
at C'haffner. He ought to have known
better. And among us, I wonder at
Mickey. Where did he get It from?''
"Kaay!" said Peter. "From a God
fearing, intelligent mother, and an Ir
responsible Irish father, from Inborn.
Ingrained sense of right, and a hand
to-hand scuffle with life in Multlupulta
gutters. Mickey is all right, and
thank God, he's ours! If he does
show signs of wanting to go to the
Herald office, discourage him all you
can, ma; It wouldn't be good for him
—yet."
' "No It wouldn’t; but It would Is* be
aause he needs solid study and school
routine to settle him. anti make him
great Instead of a clown, as that
would at his age. But if you think
there Is anything In the Herald office
that could hurt Mickey, you got an
other think coming . It wouldn't hurt
Mickey; but it would ho mighty good
for the rest of them. The Herald has
more honor and conscience than most;
some of the papers nre Just disgrace
ful in what they publish, ami then
take back next day; while folks are
forced to endure it. Sit up and eat
your dinners now. I want to get on
with my work."
"Mickey, what happened?" begged
Peaches as Mickey came In sight,
carrying the paper*.
He was trembling and tensely ex
cited us her sharp eyes could see.
They rested problngly a second on
him, then on the paper. Her lips
tightened while her eyes darkened.
She stretched out her hand.
"Mickey, let me see!" she com
manded.
Mickey knelt beside her, spreading
out the sheet. Then he took her hand,
setting a Anger on the first letter of
his name and slowly moved along as
she repeated the letters she knew
best of all, then softly pronounced the
name. She knew the Herald too. She
sat so straight Mickey was afraid she
would sprain her l>ack, lifting hor
head "like a queen," If a queen lifts
her head just as high as her neck can
possibly stretch, and smiled it cold
little Bmile of supreme self satisfac
tion.
"Now Mickey, go on and read what
you wrote about me,” her highness
commanded.
The collapse of Mickey was sudden
and complete. He stared at Peaches,
at the paper, opened his lips, thought
a lie and discarded it, shut his lips to
pen the lie In for sure, and humbly
nnd contritely waited, a silent candi-1
date for mercy. Peaches had none.
To her this was the logical outcome
of what she had been led to expect.
There was the paper. The paper was
the Herald. There was the front page.
There was Mickey's name. She had
no conception of Mickey writing a
line which did not concern her; also
he had expressly stated that all of
them and the whole book were to be
about her. She Indicated the paper
and his name, while tho condescension
of her waiting began to be touched
with impatience.
"Mickey, why don't you go on and
read what it says about me?" she de
manded.
Mickey saw plainly what must bo
done, lie gassed at her and suddenly,
for the first time, a wave of some
thing new and undefined rush d
through hirn. This exquisitely dell
cate and beautiful little highness, sit -
j ting so proudly straight, arid so un
I comprom-singly demanding that lie
redeem his promise*, made a double
appeal to Mickey. Her highness
scared him until he was cold Inside.
He was afraid, and he knew It. He
wanted to run. and he knew it; yet
no linnd of steel could have held hint
as this bit of white femininity, liegin
nlng to glow a soft pink from slowly
enriching blood, now hold and forever
would hold him, and best of all he
knew that. It was In his heart to be
a gentleman; there was nothing left

sive to 1*> one now. He took both
Peaches' hands, and began preparing
her gently as was in his power for
what had to come.
“Yes Flowersy-girl,” he said, "I'll
read it to you, but you won't under
stand 'til I tell you-"
"I always understand," she said
sweeplngly.
"You know' how wdld like I came
home last night,” explained Mickey.
“Well, I had reason. Home folks who
have been good to us, and that I love
like we love Peter and rr.fl. had been
in awful danger of something that
would make them sore all their lives,
and maybe I had s>>me little part in
putting it over, so it never touched
them; anyway, they thought so, and
I was tickled past all sense and reason
about It. It was up to th% editor of
the Herald to decide; and what he did,
wds what I begged htm to. Course
left to himself, he would a?done it any
way, after he had time to think-"
“Mickey, read my po'try piece
about me, an’ then talk,” urged
Peaches.
"Honey, you make me so sick I
can't tell you.”
"Mickey, what's the matter?”
Peaches’ penetrating eyes were
slowly changing to accusing. She drew
a deep breath, giving him his first
cold, unrelenting look.
"Mister Michael O'Halloran,” she
said in incisive tones, “did you write
a po'try piece for the first page of the
Herald, not about me?"
Well Miss Chicken," he cried, "I
wish you wouldn't talk so much! I
wish you'd let me tell you.”
"I guess you ain't got anything to
tell,” said Peaches, folding her arms
and tilting her chin so high Mirkey
feared she might topple backward.
"I guess I have!” shouted Mickey.
“I didn't put that there! I didn't
mean It to be there! If I'd a put It
i there, and meant it there, and know
ed it would be there, it would a been
about uyo, of course! Answer me
this, Miss. Any single time did I ever
not do anything that I said I would?"
"Nothing but this," admitted
Peaches.
"There you go again!” said Mickey.
"I tell you I didn't do this, and when
I tell you, I tell true, Miss, get that in
your system. If you'd let me explain
how it was. you'd see that I didn't
have a single thing to do with it ”
Peaches accomplished a shrug that
was wonderful, anil gazed at the cell
ing, her Ups dosed. Mickey watched
her a second, then he began softly:
"Flowersy-glrl, I don't see what you
mean! I don't know why you act
like this! I don’t know what's to
have a tantrum for, when I didn't
mean it to bo there, and didn't know
it would be there. Honest, I don't!”
