game on Saturday.
Football practise win be Recrot all
this woek. The afternoons are being
spent at the University Farm and r
ports of the team's progress are en
couraging. With Johnson In Ills place
at end and with every prospect thttt
Taylor will be'able to play on Satur

Last night after practise, the squqd

THE IOWA TEAM
The Iowa State College team thlH
season is one of the strongest elevens
In the history of that institution. With
twentyiflvo of the college's best mon
on Its football squad, It has been able
to pick a team which can undoubtedly
outplay any eleven within the do
minions of the Hnwkeye state and
which, according to football fans, will
givo the Cornhuskers the hardest run
for, their' money of any team playing
In Lincoln this season.
To all appearances It is a likely
bunch of "mole-sklnners," but, as "pig
skin" history in Nebraska nml else
where will amply testify, appearances,
like comparative scores, count for but
very little. A team to win a game from
the Cornhuskers must "produce the
goods" in larger packages and of bet
tor quality than those produced by

made such a hltlast week,. It Is hoped

Wdrd fromAmes indicates that the
jtoum whoso nlcture, wo1 print today is
the best in years and that every man
is on his mettle to defeat Nebraska.
It, is reported that an excursion of .two
hundred rooters will accompany tho
jtedlh, and if this is the case Nebraska
-may, expect a hard fight' not merely
jbn the 'gridiron, but , on the bleachers
.las well. .Two hundred men in a bunch
'wjll make enough noise to keep Nc-
ter endurance than has been displayed
in the- games so far.
yBasketbnll Is well under way and
prospects are encouraging. Of the old
men who are In school and are ox
uected to make-tho team are: Moser,
captain; the Bell brothers; Burruss,
Joaj JKraJe, and Walsh. 'There. are,,
in all, about twenty-five candidates

8PLENDID PROGRAM;-
Convocation Goers to Be Well Enter

Although tha Convocation program
for November has not yet been com
pleted, it la quite probable that, judg
ing from the speakers already en
gaged, it will be one of the best Con
vocation months, of tho year. The fol
lowing men have promised to speak
to "University students during tho
month: , Hon. W. J. Bryan, Hon, Norrls

of physical force, and physical science
