YeBtorday afternoon, tho football
team left over tho Rock iHland for
Colorado. A somewhat small but en
thusiastic crowd of about 200 students
accompanied tho team to tho station,
and under the leadership of Billy
Ramsey and John Allen gave thorn a
send-off that will doubtless hnvo iU

out to bid the Cornhuskers good-bye,

Up In Minnesota tho dopesters are
conscientiously trying- to keep a close
watch on the CornhiiBkers. The follow

number of the Minnesota Daily:
"As far as can bo gleaned from the
Nebraska papers, they expect to have
the best team that Coach Booth has
eer taken In hand.
"Seveial old men are back, among
them Bender and Benedict "and Cotton,
who has played tho last two years and
who last year played against Captain
Hogan of Yale In scrimmage and
played him to a standstill most of the
time. Mills, tfio 2G0 -pound center, la
