WANTS BIG MEN.
Coach Booth Issues a Call
Heavier Line Men.
for
five years ago. and was defeated G-0.
It seems that the west will not have
an opportunity to measure strength
with the east th,is year, but this can
not be laid against Michigan, for she
has repeatedly tried to schedule with
all of the big eastern schools. We in
the west regret their Inability to meet
Columbia, for we had no doubt as to
Michigan's ability to take her measure.
Following the action of Columbia,
the Chicago College of Physicians and
Surgeons, which was scheduled to meet
Michigan last Wednesday, also can
celled her date Upon receipt of a
spirited protest from Michigan, how
ever, the game was finally played, re
sulting in a heavy score for Michigan.
The Oberlln game, which was sched
uled on condition that the Columbia
game was played, has now been called
off Michigan's schedule ends Novem
ber 12, with the Chicago game
Coach Booth lias Issued a Call for
l'iji men for the line. There are dozens )
ot big. husky men in school who are
not getting out and trying for places
on the varsity and these heavy men
are greatly needed. So far, the line
positions have only one man available
for each and a stiff game, such as the
game with Colorado, cmphasi7.es the
direr necessity of having more heavy
men to call upon. None of the places
on the rush line are by any means
cinched andthat a man hasn't yet been
out doesu't mean fhat It is too late.
With the liack field no fault can be
lound. Wq, have line buckers and
sprinters that can't he equaled, and
some of the line men are up to the
mark; but others are not, by any
means.
Considering the small number of
men reporting for practice at other
schools' the number of men out at Ne
Lraska is very satisfactory, but more
beef is needed. Coach Booth has a
faculty of making football players, if
he has n chance nnd every big man
In school, whether experienced or not,
should get out.
The game to have been played on
Thanksgiving day between Michigan
and Columbia, in New York city, has,
according to the Michigan Daily, been
called off by Manager Morely of Colum

Wolverines. This Is a game that has
been attracting more Interest than
any since Wisconsin met Yale four or

KANSAS NOT SORE.
Captain Benedict Receives a
Friendly Letter.
Captain Benedict is in receipt of a
letter form Captain Hicks of the Kan
sas football team, which seems to con
tradict the feeling expressed in the
article In the K U. paper. Mr. Hicks
Bays that he hopes Nebraska will clean
up the Indians whon we meet them
in Kansas City, and adds that he Is
very sorry relations moro amicable do
not exist between Nebraska and Kan
sns. The letter is full of real pro
Nebraska sentiment, and, if circum
stances permitted of Its publication,
would go a long way toward taking
away the feeling of disgust aroused by
the dipping' from the Kansas Univer
sity paper. However, the paper is
credited as the official organ of the
university and as such must be rolled
upon to represent student-sentiment.
GOOD PROSPECTS.
Twenty Men After Places on the
Base Ball Team.
Last evening about twenty men re
ported for basketball practice. Among
these were several new men, some of

available for two good teams, from

ever represented Nebraska should bo
secured. Beers. Captain Hoar and Ed
Hagensick, of last year's team,' are
back and will be in the game again.
The men are ordered to report for
practice again this afternoon from 5
to 0 o'clock.
