The way in which tho Nebraska-Minnesota game Is being regarded by the Gophers, 1b best shown by the elaborate preparations that are being made to entertain the visiting Cornhuskers The Minnesota university papers have been full of comment during the past week, on the action of the press club, which has decided to give the first social function of its career on the eve of the big game. A large attendance at the game is expected from Nebraska, and the affair will, In reality, be a great reception for them. The nature of the entertainment is best indicated by tho following clip ping from the Minnesota Daily "College pencil pushers composing the "U" Press Club are preparing to break, into society, on the night of October 28 tho ove of the Nebraska game. "They will give an informel at the Amory on that date, which will turn out to be one of the most unique as well as brilliant functions of the year. "It will bo an informal informal, of an appropriate Bohemian character, and between dances there will be all kinds of such college stunts as clog ging and singing, by 'U' talent. The music will be the best In tho Twin Cities.ith.oprlc.eJis.410, "We have received the outline of a melodrama In process of construction by a person or persons unknown, mem bers of the dramatic club. The title will be 'The Red Hand,' or 'Chicago Gone Mad.' If the prospectus can be rolled on . the play will be several shades more lurid than the title. "No setting, situation or shudder of the stereotyped melodoama will bo lacking. The sagacious child, the fee ble minded heroine, the idiotic hero, the adventuress, the villlan and the inevitable detective will all be there. "The scene of the play Is laid in the stockyard district of Chicago at the time of the great packers' strike and the action reaches its climax in a great mob scene in the third act, where tho hero after being despeately wounded with two-thirds of a brick, quells the mob, breaks the strike and wins the heroine. This pleasing scene is ren dered complete by the arrest of the vil llan and the suicide of the adventuress. "The cast calls for sixteen speaking characters and a mob of three. "We will give a complete review as soon as we receive a copy of the play. aThe play will be put on at some pri vate hall about Nov. 17th. Attendance will be limited to the Dramatic Club and a few Invited guests. "JuBt at the time of going to press wo learn that the Press Club has opened negotiations with the author for the presentation of their masterpiece at the Press Club ball. Mr. Corey chairman, Messrs.

On account of the wet weather yes terday, light practice was held on the campus last night. The recent changes made In the line-up, make this es pecially deplorable Just at this time, on account of the hard game with Knox next Saturday. The Galesburg men have one of the best teams In thqlr history this year and promise to fur nish one of the closest and hardest games on the schedule. Their game with Illinois resulted In a score of 11 0 against them, while Illinois was able to beat Indiana by a score of only 10-0 last Saturday. Manager Davis has returned from his trip to Kansas City where he went to close arrangements for the Haskell In dian game, to be played in that city on Nov. 12th. As the park manage ment failed to guarantee sufficient seat ing capacity for tho game no contract was signed, and if those having the park In charge do not come to time there Is a possibility of transferring the game with the Indians to Omaha. This Is not thought probable, how e verms there Is a strong feeling of interest already worked up In Kansas City and the foot-ball fans would not consent to allow the game to be trans 1jtAikiiti.yrifcwttttttttttftttttttffffffj)i)) n SOPHOMORE u it it it it it it it it it Friday Night, h Fraternity Hall it it n t it Tickets, mM Here's to our fame so wide!

A largo crowd is expected at the Haskoll game, and the feeling, mostly for Nebraska, Is very gratifying so long before the game. As yet no definite rates have been made either to Minneapolis or to Kan sas City. Low rates to both points will undoubtedly be made, however, and a large crowd ought to go with the team on both these trips. Regular basket ball practice last night brought out a good number of players. After some preliminary goal throwing and passing the men were placed In two teams with Capt. Hoar. Beers. Hagenslck. Burruss and Durkee against Krake, Fowler. Tyner. Van Burg and Mathewson. The older and more experienced men succeeded In keeping their opponents from scor ing but were compelled to play swift bnll to do so. Fowlor, a new man, has the height to make him a valuable man when he develops more speed and ac curacy. Hauser. of track athletics fame. Is intending to get out for bas ket ball practice soon.
