Lald-Up.
Last Saturday Coach Stuart wis in
the "land of the Gophers" and' wit
nessed the struggle between Minne
sota and Ames. Hek characterizes our
opponents of next Saturday as a
"strong, Jjeavy team, with a powerful
offense." 'Minnesota has a poworful
team and vfti outweigh us decidedly,
as they did the farmers from Iowa, but,
according to Stuart, the difference be
tween the scores of our game with
Ames and Ames' game with Minnesota
should not bo taken as a .test of the
relative strength of the two teams.
Ames played In- hard, luck, lacking
two of their best men in the line up.
Their capltaln and quarterback; to
whoso splendid generalship and punt
ing, was due their vlotory over the
CornhuSkers, was out of the game,
and his absence was keenly felt from
the very first.
Minnesota played the old heavy
fotball that has always been her
strongest feature and resorted torfew
tricks or open plays. The only fea
ture that smacked of the' new rules
"3a8 a Quarterback kick that was suc
cessfully tried several times. Other
than this thoy confined themselves
to straight line plunges; relying on
their superior weight and brawn to
shatter their opponent's line. If Min-
nesota has any trick plays and Intri
cate forward passes to spring on us
next Saturday, she did not show her
hand against Ames. . ,
'Secret practice was held .Monday
night jmd the team was coached with
the special end In view of meeting
Minnesota's heavy line bucks. The
team Is showing up well and Improv
ing -wonderfully on the offense, for It
.plows thru the scrubs in a 'way that
It has not been able to do heretofore.
"Pip" Cooke had a piece of hard
luck come to him in. the shape of a
twisted ankle, but will be out to prac-
180 today in spue or a rew twinges
f pain. Miller Benedict was laid out

SEND-OFF PLANNED.
To Be Celebration at Train When the
Team Leaves for Minnesota.
The rooting leaders and the Inno
cents are working up a typical Ne
braska send-off for the team when It
leaves for Minnesota on Thursday af
ternoon of this week. Drill Is to be
dismissed early and the band will lead
a procession from the campus to the
Burlington station, where music and
speeches by the coaches, members of
the faculty, and the team, will keep
things moving till the train pulls out.
The team leaves at six o'clock on
thel regular Burlington train and It Is
confidently expected that there will be
a tremendous turn-out to Inspire them
for what may be the hardest game of
the season. Altho a rate of $12.50 for
the round trip has been offered for
those who may wish ip see next Sat
urday's game, it cannot be expected
that Nebraska will have adequate sup
port from the grandstand on Minne
sota's field and so Thursday evening
will be the last chance for the rooters
to do their effective work, The team
should be given Inspiration there suf
ficient to carry them triumphantly un
til they return.

COUNTY FAIR
GIRLS' GLEE CLUB TRYOUT8.
Large Number of Girls Appear Good
Club Assured.
At the tryouts for the Girls' Glee
Club, held by Mrs. Raymond In Me
morial Hall last evening, on unex
pecteilly largo numfier of candidates
appeared. The quality of tho voices
tested gives ample as.jurnnco- that the
club Oils year will more than oqual
that oMast winter, and Jt Js expected
that rehearsals will begin early in No
vember. Rehearsals hhlhxoar will not be
prolonged past the middle, of tho sec
ond semester. Tho chieffault that
was found by the members of the club
last year was tho way the work"
drugged by tho end of the second se
mester. By the new plan it Is hoped
to keep the Interest arohsed and con
fine practise to tho vigorous months
Of the year. One hour University credit
has been promised for tho total of
work'put in.
Temple Progressing.
Tho new University Temple Is pro
gressing rapidly. The second s.tory
Is nearly up. Yesterday tho pillars
for the two porticos on tho north and
west wore being brought up from tho
yards. Thoy are of sandstone, twenty
twofeot long, two feet ten Inches In
width ftnd weighing approximately ten
tons. There wM bo two ofhoso on
each side of the main doors .ahd thoy
will add materially to tho anboartince
oi me Duuuing.
Another Fizzle.
Tho second meeting of. the Asso
ciated Barbs, which .was" called for
yesterday , morning at Convocation
hour, proved to bo as much of a failure
as Its predecessor. There was not a
quorum present and election of ofll
cers will apparently have to go by
default. Interest in the organization
has always been spasmodic and this It
evidently a distinctly "off" time of the
year'. '

Tho American History Department
has just installed a new electric lan
tern thatvdoes ayay with the time
wasted In preparing th6 older gas lan
tern for action, and affords a decidedly
more brilliant light.

CR088 COUNTRY OUTLOOK.
Men Training In Rain or 8hlne: Good
Team Assured.
P.rnoa nnnntrv wnrlr Itna-rrnnn nn nil'
I thlB-jyeok In spite of the mud and
rain. In fact oross country work never
slops for any thing and one of tho
the ' most important, if not tho
most essential feature of training in
this branch of athletics, Is regularity
in work. If a man lays off twp or threer
days ho Ioscjj practically a week's
training, and If oven miBsing one of tho
dally runs seriously interferes with
tho. progress that should bo made. All
candidates for the team are urged to
lot nothing Interfere with their dally
hwork,' and especially not to stop for
bad weather.
Prospects for a fas team are very v
bright. Nebraska wlll meet the -b'est
distance material iii the "west- In the
Thanksgiving meet, and a bettor team
than wo have over had must be de
veloped If, we hope to win tHls year.
