W E N T T O N’ E years ago on Thauksgivl n g day, November 26 to he exact, a powerful Illi nois football team invaded Cornhusker ter r i t o r y deter mined to toss a wrench into the S c a\r let and Cream's great scoring machine. This was in the day of Morris Benedict and Johnny Bender, proteges of "Bumniy” l Booth, 1 lustier coach In the year 180.". Two hours after Illini had trotted out upon old Nebraska Held they ‘were a badly mauled anil battered hunch of athletes—and they had met their match In the form of a IS to 0 defeat. l,ed by their star tackle and cap I tain. Bob Rotbgeb, the visitors got down to business In the opening quarter, marching straight down the Held Into Nebraska territory. Here the Huskers braced, taking the hall on downs and advancing well Into midfield, where Bender punted out of danger. Again Illinois advanced the ball well Into home grounds and again the Nebraska line refused to budge. Rothgeb stepped hack for a place kick, hut Referee Hoaglaml blew his whistle for the first half. The score, at that time stood 1) 0. The famous Bender, Nebraska's great quarterback, was helpless In the Hist half. He was constantly spilled for losses by th* Illinois ends, Pitts and Beers. Rothgeb tore through the Dusker line time after time, spilling the Scarlet and Cream backs for losses. The second half, however, was a much different story. Bender kicked oft to Illinois, but Nebraska held Us opponents for downs In the center of the field. Re peated drives by Wilson and Eager carried the ball within scoring dis f Pits. e. Here Bender elected to try " a place kick. His attempt was blocked by Rothgi*. but In a few Kv eaxninutes' time the Huskers took pos session of the oval in the center of the field. Nebraska advanced the hall to the So-yard line, but an Illinois lineman broke through and blocked Bender s second attempt to kick from place ment. On a series of line smashes ofl tackle and through center Eager and Wilson carried the ball to the five jard mark, at which point the former ripped through for the first Nebraska counter. P.ender missed the goal. Pttts and Beers. Illinois ends, left the game exhausted shortly after the start of the third lieriod. At this Juncture Bender started his whirlwind attack around the visitors wings, reeling off gain after gain. On a quick march down the field M ilson drove through center for the second Nebraska score, Bender kicking the goal after touchdown. Bell made the final touchdown of the afternoon Just before the final period ended. Bender's 35-yard run. the longest gain of the game, had put the Huskers in a position to score. . .. Wilson was clearly the star of th mie HIS line plunging and tackling featured. Nebraska gained 335 yards | from scrimmage to Illinois' 185 yarns The Huskers were held for downs hut twice, while the Invaders lostthe ,,n eight occasions. At no time dur )n* the battle did Illinois have the £fl within Nebraska. 20-yard line. The lineups: Nebraska. pilln Hasten Wilson .. . ".'.Rothicel' o’I . Psrry .ro’.'. ..... Apple***; ■ Ik, l.esh .

"Dempsey forced hb way to a championship mutch with Willard by whipping every heavy r Weight In sight, and I'm going tr •work my way to a battle with Itemp My the same way," remarked Re wault as h# pecked up for a two weeks bunt^pg trip In the Canadlar north wood*. ' AMONG the Creighton varsity footballers trying out for the ltr.M Hluejay eleven, the six veterans and one first-year man pic tured in the above layout are expected to play a big part in making the com Ing season n successful one for llie Itlue and White knowledge foundry. I.uepke, llickey, Yechout, lsiwer and Fltlfibbon are Imcklleld men from the ]9?:t squad. Captain-elect Waller Gayer played on the line last year. These six veterans were big cogs In Creighton’s vlct«rie last sea son and are showing up well this year. ‘'Sas" Keane Is a newcomer, lie is an end and a good punter. "Sas” kids fair to make a valuable addi tion to the Creighton varsity team this year._ Notre Dame Followers Expect 1924 Eleven to Be Greater Than Wonder Team _ South Bend, Ind., Sept. 27.—"With the help of Rock and a few more tricks," supporter* of the Notre Dame football team are already cher ishing hopes of this season's eleven surprising the record of its "wonder team" of last year. A roll call at the Hoosier institution made since the inauguration of the gridiron pro gram shows that nine men have been lost to the sound through graduation, and the line weakened by the loss of three regulars, the brilliant back field of last year is still intact. As in former years, the Gold and Blue machine will lack weight. Be ing aware of this, Knute K. Rockne, noted mentor for the school, is con cerned over filling the guard, tackle and end positions made vacant by the graduation of former Captain Harvey Brown, Oberst, and Mayl. However, with such veterans as Cap lain Walsh, the Hollywood center who so decisively outplayed Garbisch in tile West Point Notre Dame game last year, Kizer, Bach, Edgar Miller, Collins, Crowe, Weibel and Hunsin ger back, and a large number of re serves and former yearlings present, Hoekne would be able to build a line which should provide ample protec tion for the haekfiehl. East season the line bore the brunt of a conceit ! trated Army attack and the infuri ated thrusts of the Princeton Tiger— and held, while the fleeting backs scored. Unusual speed and skill will be found In the Notre name baekfleld this year. Of the baekfleld squad which last year scored 275 points to the opponents’ 37, but two players are missing. Bergman and Maher Players of all-American caliber will compose the first string baekfleld. which despite its lightness, justified its greatness as a ground-gaining combination on the offensive and as a harrier on the defensive during the 1923 season. In Bon Miller, the sen sational broken field runner, and Leyden, a man possessed of the abil ity to plunge the line for steady gains and whose consistent punting was a feature of his work at fullback last year, Rockne lias two back* whose piay have merited for them the universal acc laim of roaches and sport critics. iStuhldreher ,tlie "Lit tle General" of the forces, will again pilot the "Fighting Irish," while Crowley, the Green Bay flash, whose Interference during the 1923 season paved the way for many of Miller's gains, will again lend speed to the Irish baekfleld by bis presence.

RW YORK, Oct. 4. —It has been an nounced, semi - offi cially, that Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey, has made an agree rn e n t with Tex Rickard to pit the , world heavyweight (•^champion against j" *^2, llarry Wills, negi -V challenger, at —222H Hoyle's Thirty Acres In Jersey 1 Cily July 4 next. Kearns also is said to have promised to mafeh Dempsey with Jack Renault of Canada, the bout to be decided at^ one of the local ball parks in May. Jack Kearns tells close friends that he "has not been shown the color of the money," and that, although in case he decides to let Dempsey face Wills the champion will want at least one match under his belt first, he is not going to take that match unless he can get what he thinks Dempsey s services are worth. Ho far his great friend Rickard lias been unable to talk in the figures Kearns insists on. Maybe they are only talking for publicity, anyway. Despite the rumors of approach ing Dempsey matches, it looks as if the heavyweight encounters of Impor tance that will he waged Indoors this winter will be Wills against Rojas, and possihly Wilis against Renault. Rojas against Firpo or Rojaa against Gibbons, and Gibbons against Tunney. At least one of these matches may be announced later. Of course, the American fistic future of I.uis Firpo depends on the deportation proceed ings. If Fncle Sam doesnt send the Wild Hull back to graze on his native Pampas. Firpo may box one or two others besides Rojas here. ft is possible that the long awaited Dempsey Wills match may be made, although It is currently reported that Kearns has put a prohibitive figure on the champions services against Wills that even Rickard cannot con sider It.
