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

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.

Dempsey May
Tackle Wills
Next Summer
Champion Also Lined ITp for
Match With Jack Renault
in Open Air Next
Mat.
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.
