The Game Today
Nobrnska moots Illinois for tho
third tlmo today and tho prospects
aro that tho chances aro bettor for a
victory for tho Illlni than In any pre
vious gamo. Lnst year tho gamo was
anybody's up to tho last whistle, and
for a tlmo It scorned as If our lino
could novor hold against tho fierce at
tack dlrectod at It. Tho year boforo
tho gamo was moro easily won, and
out goal was not often In danger.
This year tho" chances aro moro
oven. Michigan dofeatod both teams
by almost Identically tho same score.
Against Nebraska all tho scoring was
dono in tho second half, while against
Illinois touchdowns were distributed
equally. This; would seom to show
tnat Nobraska has tho stronger de
fense, but it is worn out tho sooner.
Chicago dofoated Illinois by over forty
points, but most of those woro made
by Eckersall, and as tho dopo sooms
to say that Chicago is stronger than
innosota, it would appear that hero
again tho teams showup about evenly.
.The Illinois toam will bo In excel
lent condition, as it has not played a
game for ten days, the Chicago gamo
being the last one The Nobraska
players should all bo An first-class
shapo with tho exception of Johnson
and Donslow. Tho former Is not limp
ing much, howovor, and tho latter's
anklo is growing much stronger, and
ho will begin tho gamo. Tho Nebras
ka llno-up will bo changed materially.
Weller will bo In at his real position,
half-back, and Lundin will tako his
The Cornhusker Banquet
Monday, December fourth, Is the
date sot for the Third Annual Corn
husker Banquet. Every man,- at least
ovory man who was in school last
year will bo at tho Llndell at nine
o'clock for the best and most patriotic
celebration of tho foo'tball season. For
thoso tho simplo announcement Is
enough; if anything moro were needed
to get them out, tho fadt that Coach
Booth will be thero this year, Is moro
Uian sufficient. ' -
Tho Pirst Annual Cornhusker Ban
quot was held in 1903. Over 200 stu-
v dents and alumni wero present It
. was held at tho Llndell, and managed
by tho Pan-Hollonlc Congress. While
not at all a tratemUy affair, It was
thought that for tho greatest benefit
to tho Interests for which It was organ
Ized, tho non-fraternity section of tho
school should havo part in Its actual
' management, so In 1904 the Second'
Banquet was turned over to tho Senior
Ipnoconts Society, which directs it
again this year. . " .
- Last year's banquet was highly suc-
', . vcessful also, tho one unfortunate foa
3tf '. turo being Coach Booth's absence.
However, ho will bo hero this" tlmo.
Dr. Pound will bo toastmaster, as he
. waB last year and tho year beipjco His
enthusiasm Is indispensable. Last
J-year tho number of attending alumni
J -was largo; it Is hoped' It will be much
5 larger this year. They come from all
, over tho state, representing some of
tho earllestclasses to graduate, turned
, out of the University when her most
famous athletic stunt was tho ability
of Professor Howard to throw a base-"
'; ball over the main building. , Invlta-
iions are ueing sent to them all.
Among them aro W. W. Wllspn of Ne
braska City,' once guard' and captain,
. , ; jmd Frank Crawford, tljp :flrst coach.
'. RAb ono of tho first purposes of this
j f event to furnish a rallying , tlmo for all
tff ielwo old Brads andstudents who "can
place at tackle. From tho Illinois
line-up two familiar names will bo
missed thoso of Rothgeb and of Ha
zelwood, both of whom have been fa
vorlteB withrNebraska rooters for two
years.
Tho gamo today will moan much to
both teams. Illinois has suffered threo
bad defeats, and will play desperately
to retrieve herself. Nebraska has lost
to every Conference team she has met
this year, and will strlvo to win from
this last one. In addition to this, there
will be tho usual quota of men who
aro playing their last gamo while in
college, and they will play the games
of their lives. On tho Cornhusker
side, thero will be an unusual numbor
of these Captain Borg, ex-Captain
Benedict, Johnson, Cotton and Lundin.
All these will have playod their four
years or else will graduate next spring.
Our chances for admission to the
Conference depend but very little upon
success in the gamo today, but failure
to win might have much effect. Illi
nois has shown herseif to be among
tho weakest of tho Conforenco teams
this year, and if Nebraska is unable
to win, tho game thoro would, bo but
little chance that wo would be consid
ered good enough for admission. On
the other hand, to win the game will
do us no positlvo good, as the victory
would not bo considered as amounting
to much after tho defeats at tho hands
of Michigan and Minnesota. It Is a
case of "Headd, I win; tails, you
lose."
possibly come to Lincoln to whoop it
up again for Nebraska and her football
men. Nebraska University is young;
it is poor in tho traditions which glvo
dignity to tho older colleges, Tho
Cornhusker Banquet makes such a tra
dition of tho patriotism which tho foot,
ball season brings out. It furnishes a
tlo which keeps tho Interest of tho
graduates In the University and its
affairs. Jt Is lopked forward to by
them and by tho students.
" A partial list of spoakors Is: Dr.
Pound, toastmaster, and speeches by
Booth, Borg, 'Morrison, Lundin, and
such others as can bo coaxed or be
trayed '(this don't apply to Bolton) Into
saying anything.
However, tho feast of wit and rea
son to Jbp so confidently expected, Is
not the only ono. N6 effort will bo
made to clear anything for the Ath
letic Board Treasury. The price, one
dollar and a half, will all go Into the
menu, which to make it tho bettor
will hot bo printed in the shape of
