what ho can do.
Tho line-up of last Saturday's team
has been changed materially. Wqlldr
Gillesplo had quartets representing tho
four parts sing simple songs so that
he could got a better lino on their
merits. He expressed himself aa. quite
satisfied 'with the material on hand,
and is confident of turning out a, glee
club which would bo a credit to anj
Institution in tho country.
Those who had qualified for tho
Mandolin Club were also called out,
and wore given exercises In Union
Hall by tho director, Mr. Nlles. These
men. also made as good a showing-as
tholr brothers whose musical ability
runs along vocal .lines.
Much Interest In the proposed trip
has been aroused throughout tho West
Tho Omaha and Chicago papers havo
had representatives in Lincoln- to write J
up tho trip and tho club, so that tho
advertising 'process " has 'already be
gun. The authorities here aro also
back of tho affair and have granted one
hour credit per semester to each
man on tho club.
The club has been very fortunate
In procuring one of tho best first
tenors in the West in the person of
Ireland, the tenor of tho famous Wes-,
loyan quartet, which has traveled over
the entire West for several years. Mr.
Ireland has registered in the Univer

left tackle. Weller' has boon playing
a grout gamo at lialf this year, but ho
will fill a place In the lino which ac
cording to all the loyal supportors has
been weak. Burns Is a nervy player,
but he lias not tho weight nnd muscle
to put behind his Attempts. Schmidt
and Little are fighting It out for loft
half. Both aro good men, and whllo
neither may get tho position, thoy will
.bo good men to sub. Booth Is glvln
Rico a try at guard and ho has proven
himself to bo n very willing worker.
Tho only objection to Rice Is that ho
lacks In weight, nlthough he Is very
muscular.
The gamo next Saturday will bo tho
first real test of our strongth. South
Dakota has a strong aggregation of
players, and In last Saturday's game
ran up a largo-Bcoro against thqlr op-1
ponents. Tho South Dakota toam Is
strong on, heavy men, but thoy lack1
In speed. With a heavy field again
thoscoro would btf kept down very
close N "
Glen Mnson will likely bo In, his old
position. atfulNback on Saturday. Tho.
football enthusiasts remember woll
how Mnson lilt tho line for gains last
year."
Managor Morrison returned biLTues
day from Mlnneapqlis, whtirQ ho prac-.
tically concluded arrangement for the"
Minnesota-Nebraska game. Tho sanio
financial agreement as last year exists
this year between tho two teams. Tho
one point of difficulty is tho failure; to
agree on tho "freshman ruld,r"whTcb
was passed by tho conference lasc
spring. -Morrison watched tho Min
nesota squad practice on Monday even
ing and was confronted by tho fact
that tho "Gophers" had a husky bunch
of pigskin chasers. Hunter, .the old'
time. Minnesota star, is in tho hospital
with' pneumonia. This is due from a
cold ho received tho early part of tho
season. '
Morrison believes Nebraska's chance
against the northerners' Is better than
over this year. There seems to bo no
doubt but 'that Nebraska will score.
