Price 5 Cents ,v GO THIS MORNING Foot Ball Men and Rooter3 Leave at 930 this Morning. A IMcnftiiiit Trip U Anticipated, - I.itrgo Crowd W1U Clo. The team leaves this morning over the Burlington for Omaha for the Creighton game. On the same train the special excursion to the game will he run. A large section has been re served in the grandstand at the Vinton street park, where the game will be played, for Nebraska rooters, and every man who accompanies the team is expected to bring his megaphone. The game will be called at 3 o'clock Twenty minute halves will be played Practice last night consisted only of signal work. Weller was tried at center, Mills' arm keeping him out of the game, and Borg's ankle being htill too weak to exercise much. Practice was swift, and every man showed a snap and go that has been somewhat lacking since the Colorado game. The work last night bids evil to Creighton this afternoon. The following men compose the squad to play Creighton: Mills, Borg, Barta, Mason (Cy). Burns. Robertson, Johnson, Benedict, Ben der. Mason (G.). Eager, Weller, Marsh, Fenlon, Barwlck, Cotton, Speer, Shook, Lundin, Standeven, Craig. McDonald, Denslow. From the number of men Coach Booth evidently Intends to try out quite a number. Extra basketball practice was had last night, and a" good" squad was on hand. Interest this year in basket ball is keen, large squads report at each practice and the work Is the ""swiftest for this time of the season that it has been for some years. Another championship team in basket ball seems quite probable. JEFFERSONIAN MEETING. Democrats Will Hold Important Meeting Next Week. The Jeffeison club is arranging for a business meeting the first of next week, at which time the reports of several committees -will be listened to One of the Important things up for consideration is the fact that the state central committee has offered to re serve two hundred seats for Jefferson ians and democratic students of the university at the Folk-Berge tally to be held at the Auditorium the 24th ' of October, providing they guarantee to fill the required number. This jneeting. which is to be held at the closing hours of the state campaign, promises to be a loader, and the ap pearance of the-- famous Missouri boodle prosecutor should makejt very easy tosecure the required number to engage these seats. ' Every democrat or independent voter In tne university Is asked to be at the meeting to push the movement to the front so that they may avail them selves of this excellent opportunity to hear this state and national Issues ably discussed.

The fieshman law class held a lous ing meeting during the convocation hour yesterday morning, and succeeded In electing a full list of officers with out the usual lengthy forensic com bat. The Freshman class boasts of a number of excellent orators among its members, but they showed a won derful consideration for the less gifted classmates, and refrained from any long oratorical stretches. The meet ing was harmonious in the extreme, and the following list of officers was elected: President Brown. First vice-president Miss Rust. Second vice-president Miss Court ne.'. Secretai y Martin. Tergeant-at-arms Borg The class authorized the president to appoint an athletic committee to manage the athletic teams and this committee was Instructed to butt In to the interclass athletic organization. Last year the law school classes at tempted to force recognition unsuccess fully, but this year a more determined effort will be made, so that there can be no dispute at the end of the foot ball season as to which Is the cham pion team. THE Y. W. C. A. What They Have Done at Tho Nebraska University. It has boen a number of years since the first Young Women's Christian associations were organized in Ne braska and they have rapidly grown to be a necessity In the many colleges and cities where they are located. The state university, five dcnominal institu tions, three normal schools, three academies, and the Lincoln city as sociation Indicate the field of work. It stands for the highest Chiistiau culture for young women In city, col lege and town, preparing them by Its departmental plan of work for re sponsible places of leadership. The fine gymnasium training, the social times, the delightful rooms for lunch and rest, the missionary work, and, most of all, the devotional meetings and Bible study classes, make the associa tion most desirable where there are voting women. There Is not a town In our states so small nor a city so laige that there cannot be found young women who long for broader lives. Some have Leon denied the opportunity of an extensive education; some are busy with college work and need the telaxatlon of a "quiet, hour, some wish to do helpful work in the church or Sunday school, but know they are poorly preparod for It: still otheis long for a betetr social life. To all these comes this association of Christian young women, eager with Its scores of helpers, and the co-operation of thou sands of others In the same work, to seek with them a larger life. There. Is not a town or college in the state that would not find Its young women de lighted and profited by the association work. Twenty-one representative women of the state form the state committee, with headquarters at Lincoln. These women hhe a traveling secretary, who gives to Nebraska four and a third months of her time this year; they plan the financial support, oversee the work of all associations, and have In charge the state convention, which Is onteitalned this yefrr at University' Place bv the large association of Ne braska Wesleyan University. October 21-23. To this meeting are Invited all the young women of the state. Those planning It expect this will be fhe largest convention ever held by the organization In this state. A fuller statement ot convention plans and statement of. conve fcneakefe will follow. SAME LINE-UP. Faculty Teams Will Line Up the Same as Last Year. It hns been decided that the two teams which will line up against each other In desperate conflict at the World's Famous Big Consolidated Faculty Shows next Thursday will bo composed as far as Is possible of tho same players that composed the teams which fought to a draw last year. Last year's team was as follows: Shedds. Condraa. Pound r e Evans Morltz r. t.. Almy, Wallace Dorman r. g Hanna Willard c Condra Emerson 1. t Votaw Cook 1. t Bolton, Fee Qlements 1. e Congdon Moore q. b Walto I ane r. h Wolcott Shedd f. b Woodruff Sheldon 1. h Clapp Subs Llllle and Ciabtree. Of these men. several are not In the university this yoar. Morltz. Arbuth- Jnot. Cook. Wallace, Hanna. and Crab- tree nave leit tno lacuity. tnus leaving a number of awkward holes to be filled. A number of new candidates for these rosltlons have presented themselves, however, and the contest is becoming keen for places. Professor Shedd is seriously considering the platlslbUity of lining his men up for night practice, on account of apparently well-substan tiated reports which are being circu lated to the effect that his signals and trick plays are being spied upon by Professor Condra's assistants The lat ter emphatically denies the charge. In sinuating that there Is no necessity for such proceedings, as ho expects an oasy time with Shedd's team, on ac count of their lack of form after lac season Is so well under way From this he argues that the men are either being ovei trained, and are becoming btale to the game, or are affected by team dissentlons which prevent their working together well. A close game Is expected, however. In spite of Condra's protest. It seems that full 35-mlnute halves are to be played. Officials .have not been se lected as yet. ENGINEERING NOTES .1 B.

THEY SEE NO SNAP Result of Colorado Game Does Not Mislead Gophers. "Kltlior Tim tn Could Iluvo Heiiton IMIn iienolu." Hay lilU. Assistant Coach Dobie, of Minnesota, who was on the sldo lines at tho Nebraska-Colorado game last Saturday. expresses his opinion of Nebraska's Btrength thus: "At the very outset some bad fumb ling by Nobraska enabled Colorado to make her touchdown, after that how oer, Nebraska fairly outplayed the Coloradlans, putting up a fast article of football, although she was not able to score. "Colotado was In a much farther ad vanced condition than Nebraska, Its squad Is small and the team was picked at the very beginning of the seaBon They have practiced together over since and are now practically as good as they can be. "On the other hand. Nebraska Is only in the beginning of Its develop ment. Another reason for their de feat waB that the Cornhuskers' right tackle and guard were out of the game, and Colorado made all her gains through those positions. "Then, too, the Nebraskans were afraid of the high altitude and refused to play hard for fear they would givo out at the" end. "Nobraska's puntjng was good, and Bender's long runs were remarkable." In the editorial column of the same Issue of the Minnesota Dally appeared tho following: "hc defeat of Nebraska at the hands of Colorado last Saturday at Boulder, Col.. 1b likely to Inspire an undue con fidence In, Minnesota rooters as to the ability of Minnesota to defeat Ne braska when they meet on Northrop Field October 29. "Nebraska has ono of the best teams In her history. Nebiaska played a good game last Saturday and s..e has many good excuses to offer for hor defeat at the hands of Colorado. "A touchdown made on a fluke dur ing tho first five minutes of play de cided the game. Nebraska Is shaping nerself for the Minnesota game three weeks off and met a fast, heavy team, trained to play tholr 'gamo of tho season.' "Then there Is the altitude. Baseball teams have lepeatedly lost to Inferior teams used to the mountain air. "Nebraska was visibly affected by the condition and had tho Cornhuskers played Colorado at Lincoln, the re sult would have been vastly different. "A Minnesota alumnus, who saw the game at Boulder last Saturday and who has seen Minnesota In action says that the Cornhuskers could have beat on Minnesota last Saturday, and that at the present time they have a better team. "Tho Nebraska rooters and coaches are not discouraged by their defeat at Colorado and the result will but spur them on to a greater effort to defeat Minnesota. "Let no one grow over-confldent- Minnesota must play tho fastest klnn klntl l tu of footbal) to beat Nebraska on 29th of October. Minnesota has set tho prices for her gameB with Nobraska and Wisconsin at $1.00. $1.50. $2.00. $2.50 and $3.00. which goes to show that tho prices here are somewhat in tho nature of a snap. It is no wonder that tho men in the north make money on their football season. Meals or Lunch. Good Health Cafe. Franke E. Leo. Public Stenographer and Notary.
