Future of Football at Nebraska
TfrJJr 'T5r I T T T P T 1 T
I
It 1b of courso difllcult to predict
with any degroo of certainty the fu
turo of football In tho University of
Nebraska. Much depends upon the
hanagomont and tho policy pursued
ly It, and the Interest taken by the
Bchool will have an Influential effect.
A Buccossful lmmedlato future, how
evor, can be looked for, Judging from
present Indlcatlona.
Regarding tho outlook for next year
the DrosDCctfl are good. Most of the!
old men will bo back and will be well
coached In tho same manner that lias
brought Nebraska to tho front In ibvae
past few years. Men who wero com
paratively now to the game and to the
stylo of play hero at tho beginning have
mado Bplendld progross and developed
Into strong players and made a good
record. Next season wo may expect
these men to show up In much bettor
form and do much to strengthen tho
team. Others thero aro who have not
shown up to tho best that Is In them,
but tho quality Is thero and another
seoson'B training will develop them
Into strong players.
A strong sentiment has become es
tablished and Ib steadily growing In
tho minds of tho faculty and students
In favor of football and throughout tho
state tho peoplo aro taking an Interest
In the game. The game has been In
troduced Into high schools within re
cent years where It has never been
known bjfore, aud this will add new
tources of supply from which material
may bp drawn In tho future. And
speaking In another sense, the crowdH
from abroad that attended tho game
with Illinois, Bhow that this intereat
has been quickened Into activity in
many instances. Citizens of the state.
Including many old graduates, can e
from 100 to 200 miles to attend thr.t
gaaio.
In rooting the studontB and people
attending seem to realize their par .
and tho rooting from the side-llneB has
contributed greatly to the success of
tho team. They aro ablo to Infuse
the.'r spirit into tho men on tho team,
and rouse them to greater effort. Tho
band haB done grand work this year,
and will bo a decided factor in the
future.
A favorable feature that is notloe
ab'o In a marked degree has been i.ie
courteous treatment and sportsmanlike
i.iiduct extended to visiting teams.
This Is simply capital for the future,
and it is for the best interests of all
concerned for the students to see that
visiting teams will be treated even
more courteously, If possible, next
year. Courtesy to teams that are our
gnosis will bo a largo factor In th-a fu
ture In the strengthening ofoui ties
with other colleges,
No one can realize how far-roachlng
a football game is. It is difllcult to
appreciate tho numerous. interests rep
resented. We can In nowlso afford to
Ill-treat or mis-uso any visiting team,
for such action Is Borely felt and re
membered by tho institution experience
ing it.
If Nebraska gets into tho "Big Nino"
and it is likely that she will during tse
next few years, It will be by making
friends of tho members of that organ
ization. Illinois was our most faithful
supporter at the meeting at Chicago
tho other day whon Nebraska's request
for admission was again refused. By
treating these eastern Institutions in
a true sportsmanlike manner whenever
t k ik U Mr U it M Tt.' W
K Jfl p n f "p
we meet them, and by reason of the
excePeuco of our climate, wo hope to
cduc::to them to a full realization of
the desirability of playing here.
Next year wo will play four and
perhaps six state universities, two or
three of these being members of the
"Big Nino." Wo think that we will
te able to further convince them that
Nebraska can play up to tho "B!g
Nine" standard.
Regarding improvements that ccn
imd probnbly will be made in tho fu
ture, I think that a larger number of
men should bo coached and equipped
for the game each year. Then, too,
the scholarship of tho players should
bo kept up oven to a higher standard.
The time will come when there will
bo more of a continuity of manage
ment, which Bhould Insure a more ef
fective and permanent business policy,
such as we now find In banks and large
business houses.
There is every reason to believe that
improvements can bo mado in the team
in the future and that these will be
mado. Tho progress of tho past few
years holds out hope for greater prog
ress in tho future. In years to come
wo hopo to seo Nebraska holding her
ovn and rounding out a glorious rec
ord season after season, causing all her
rivals to fall before her J::.,-.elble
lino of battle.
DR. COiw..
An Echo of the Game,
Colors and chrysanthemums and faces
all aglow,
Packed and crowded bleachers, rising
row on row.
Cheer and song and shouting for a line
of struggling men
That rise and fall and stumble, and
buck the line again.
At last tho game is ended; the watch
ers homeward go;
The weary player rises from a mass of
mud and snow.
Now he realizes why this day of days
is called
By the name Thanksgiving, for, pound
ed, bruised and mauled,
As
he limps across the field
and
BmootheB his tangled hair,
He feolB sincere thanksgiving that all
of him Is there.
Evolution of the Student Store.
Since its establishment The Co-Op
has been In the hands of students, and
it Is the Intention of the present own
ers to perperuato students ownership
till conditions aro right for a Co-Op on
tho same plan as operated at Harvard,
Cornell and other universities. The
present owners aro A. H. Knutson,
law '04; D. B. Gllhert, special student
In the acadomlc college; O. M. Rolfson,
law 'Oti, and g. E. Hendricks, "05. Mr.
Knutson retires at the end of tho year
and some other student will take his
pluco.
The Co-Op has gradually grown with
tho university. Originally occupying a
room In the basement of tho main hall,
It. now has a home of its own. All the
books and supplies used In tho over
sowing departments of the university
aro in stock as needed by the various
classes and a great many new lines of
stocK nave Deon developed. Two or
three years ago a pennant was a rare
thing. Tho Co-Op began carrying
these two years ago and now makes
about seventy different styles and
sizes. University pins aro now car
ried in a great variety of Btyles, and
also hat pins, cuff bottons, souvenir
spoons, etc. Tho new "Cornhusker"
pin, designed as a souvenir of the foot
ball season, came from The CoOp. A
selected line of tho best confectionery
and tho leading magazines wero two
now additions to the stock of the store
last year. This year has seen several
new stylos of pennants and a lino of
fraternity and university stationery to
meet tho wants of the students.
