PERSONNEL Of VARSITY
Foot Ball Players Who Will
Probably Wear the College
Colors General Pros
pects. A few unpatriotic disbelievers seem
to have the erroneous Idea that Ne
braska's team for the season of '02 will
not bo up to ItB usual high standard.
Although, happily, these misguided
persons are decidedly In the minority,
a little, mistake may do great harm,
nnd ft behooves the athletic editor to
correct the impressions that the afore
said misguided persons have received.
One of these Impressions is that a
good team means the return of all the
old players, and that Nebraska will be
deficient In this line. Now. while old
players contribute greatly to the suc
cess of a team, it is quite possible that
new men may have new Ideas and im
proved methods of playing. Minnesota
will lose half of her old men this year,
and yet no ono expects the gopher
team to be a failure. On the contrary,
her opponents are looking forward to
a harder proposition than ever before.
ISvon If it were important to have old
men back, wo need sot be ashamed of
our showing. Nearly every position
can be filled by men who have previ
ously played in university games, and
plenty of good men stand ready to fill
the positions that are loft vacant.
A person seeing the first squad work
out. might imagine, that he was view
ing the practice of a team collected
from the various teaure wjo havofrom
time to time represented the Lincoln
high school. Over half the men who
will play this year are Lincoln men,
and it Is considerably due to the effec
tive work done In the high school that
the 'varsity owes her success on the
gridiron.
Captain Westoveu, Tobln. Ringer.
Hubbard.. Bentedlct, Eager, Mlckle. Ful
mer and Shedd are all Lincoln men,
whose work is efficient enough to place
them in the first squad.
The position of quarter, left vacant
by Drain, will probably be filled by
Benedict, tho famous pinter. Eager,
Bell, Bender and Hewitt are all con
testing for honors at half, while the
position at full sems to lay between
Ollle Mickle and Englehart, a former
captain of the Omaha team. Shedd
has his old place at right end, the
place left vacant by Cortelyou. the
other end so far being filled by Jean
Fulmer, who, although rather light,
fills the position with credit.
Koehler, champion center for sev
eral years on the team, is in Chicago,
pubbard and Borg are working out for
his position. Both are heavy men and
will play the game for all It is worth.
Borg has had little experience, but
Hubbard formerly played the position
on the Lincoln team. Brew, captain,
'00, and the swiftest man on the team
last year. Is out of school. Kingsbury
is also, an absentee. Moloney, Tobin,
Ringer. Westover. Brlggs and Wilson
are all playing In the line, while there
are plenty of good men among the
scrubs to draw from. Cotton, Hunter,
Nloodemim and Reynolds are all heavy
men and may be relied upon.
With such men to draw from, the
prospect is very encouraging. The
team is probably lighter than It was
last year, but apart from that thero
seems to be no material difference.
They arc better coached and are sup
plied with ererythlng that can possibly
be of any assistance to them. The
training table will .bo started next
week. The only draw bach, seems to bo
In the fact that two of the heaviest
games are played so early In the sea
son. The game with Colorado will bo
on October 4, and that with Minnesota
on the 18th.
Foot Ball Mass Meeting.
A part of this morning's chapel hour
will be devoted to the interests of foot
ball. The "rooters" Will be organized
for use. The meeting will be In tho
hands of enthusiasts. The Doane

The season of '02 will be given a heavy

SETTLEMENT REPORTS
College Settlement Board Tell of
What Has Been Done During
Year Student Members
Election.
The time at chapel yesterday was
given over to College Settlement work.
Professor Candy, president of the Col
lege Settlement board, presided. He
said that owing to the fact that the
board could not procure a suitable
house, very little, had been done In Set
tlement work during the laBt two
years. He was of the opinion that
there could not be too much publicity
in regard to tho affairs of a treasurer,
accordingly Professor Caldwell, treas
urer of the board. waB called upon for
a financial statement, and created con
siderable merriment when he an
nounced that he had on hand now
$9.91 of unexpended funds.
Professor Caldwell, continuing in his
report, stated that from various
sources $1,730.58 had been collected.
The first fund consisted of $100, con
tributed by the students, and $300 con
tributed by the faculty. The board
thought that since the city received
the benefit from the Settlement work,
they should assist In Its support, con
sequently a canvass was mode of the
business men of the city, which result
ed in an additional $300. Three gen
tlemen from the city were added to the
board.- A play was given last spring
which netted $400. Under the super
vision of the board, a house has been
built at Twentieth and "N streets, cost
ing approximately $2,000. The house
Is complete save for a furnace, which
the board hopes may be donated.
The following student members of
the board were elected: Misses Abba
Bowen and Elva Sly; Messrs. C. E.
Phillips and Sam Anderson.
In closing Professor Candy said. that
about $1,500 would be necessary to con
duct the work this year, which he
hoped would be forthcoming.
Miss AllceiSparks, '02, will take post
graduate Work in chemistry.
Revival tf Tenuis.
The enthusiasts of tennis were on
hand yesterday afternoon and the
courts were filled most of the tlrao.
The wet wenther for the last week
prohibited any playing and the men
made their appearance at the flrBt op
portunity. The grounds were a trlflo
damp and almost slippery In places. If
there are any meets this fall the prob
ability Is that there will be more play
ers than usual to compete for positions
on the team. A notice is Inserted at
another pJaco In this sheet calling to
tennis players' attention a business
meeting of the association to bo held
on next, Monday'. in. University hall.
College Settlement Tonight.
Students new and old, as well as tho
university faculty, are Invited to attend
the opening meeting held by the Col
lege Settlement this evening. Thero
will be short addresses by Rev. H. O.
Rowlands. Prof. A. Ross Hill, Prof. H.
J. Caldwell and Mr. I. M. Raymond.
The musical entertainment of the even
ing will be under the direction of Prof.
Wlllard Kimball.
The purpose of the meeting is to
mark the opening of College Settle
ment work In the new building and
to bring together studentB and Instruc
tors who arc Interested In this phase
of university life. The entire house
will be open for Inspection.
The house Is easy of access, being
only one block east of the pavement
on N street, and one block Bouth of the
cars on O street. Those coming on O
street should, however, turn Bouth on
Nineteenth street, or on the Rock Isl
and track. The Settlement house is be
tween Twentieth street and the Rock
Island on N street.
More Needed at Chorus.
The university Is threatened with tho
loss of Mrs. Raymond, who has so
successfully conducted the chorus
work for several years. She has been
extended a very flattering offer by a
church in a city of considerable size,
whose name Is not known, to take
charge of the music. Mrs. Raymond
feels that she can hardly ignore this
If prospectB for a larger work In tho
city do not ofTer themselves.
Mrs. Raymond particularly dislikes
leaving the college chorus work, as It
should offer a very broad field for la
bor. However, the registration for the
chorus work has not come up to ex
pectations and the advanced class Is ,
no larger than last year. Particularly
Is this a fact In the registration of male
singers. The possibility for chorus
registration haB been aided by the new
official announcement and the hopes
are that It may result In a sudden reg
istration for chorus.
The "Messiah" will be taken up Im
mediately for study. It Is especially
urged that every gentleman singer In
the university should Identify himself
with the chorus. The matter of credit
will be settled in a short time.
Mrs. Easterday, state secretary, will
speak at the Y. W. C. A. meeting in
the lecture room, Memorial hall, at 4
o'clock. Sunday afternoon, September
28th.
