WINS ROUGH GAME
NEBRASKA DEFEAT8 CREIGHTON
BEFORE LARGE CROWD.
Cornhuskers Send Big Excursion Re.
"ceptlon to Rooters Referee
v Helps Creighton.
Before a. crowd of perhaps fr.OOQ
Omahogs, Nebraska defeated Creigh
ton University In Omaha last Satur
day by a score of 17-0. The gamo was
played at the Western Leaguo base
ball norlc where the grandstand and
bleacheia afforded apparently unlim
ited roQin. Still there was an over
How meeting on the sidelines, espe
cially on the east side of tho field,
hruout the game.
The game' in itself was an anti
climax to a day of unusual pleasure
lor themony Nebraskans' who deconi'
panted the team to Omaha. The ex
cursion that pulled out of Lincoln at
?0:20 Saturday morning consisted of
twelve coaches and waB pulled by a
",
double-header. Omaha was reached at
precisely noon and in accordance with
he prearranged plan a procession was
ai "once tormea wmen inciuueo mu
bamlsa good-sized crowd of rooters
and thelejniv .comfortably esconsed in
open carrlages

This was the one featuro of the da
events, so fftrvos Creighton univer
sity wos concerned, that was pleasant
pr in any sense Bportsmonllke.
At the grounds In the afternoon an
liour before .the game was taken up
y the rivalry of tho two bands on
-thVfleld, the rooting of the opposing
sections In grandstand and bleachers,
'and the antics of the Creighton
medics and "dents," who vied with
each other-Jn securing the attention of
the various camera men on duty.
Tho game Itself was hardly worthy
of detailed comment. It was unsatis
factory from start to finish. Creigh
.ton started Into the game-determined
ta-hoJd the Cornhuskers by fair means
or foul and. the referee seomed to have
been Inoculated with the same spirit.
Nebraska suffered penalties time after
time and In one case was deliberately
robbpd of a touchdown, concerning the
legitimacy of which there was no pos-
slAle.. questlohT
Credit must bo given, however, to
Captain Brome, CreIghton''s heady lit
tle quarterback, for thejnasTerly way
'.- InVhlcb ho directed histdam and for
-tho siieed whlclThe Infused Into their
plny. He caught Nebraska napping
with his quick- punts 'several times.
ForNebraska, Cooke played the
moBt 'spectacular game and his re
.movnl from the game at the beginning
of tho.second half appreciably lessened
the effectiveness of the Cornhuskers'
offense. The high wind that prevailed
fthrudut the gamo made kicking most
' unsatisfactory and even dangerous at
' times.
In the evening tho team and an. en
thusiastic bunch of supporters went
'to the Boyd theater to see Maxlne El
liott In "Her Great Match", and, . hero
a' large part pf the , af ternopnjs un
. pleasantness waB forgotten.

Professor Chatburn Gives Interesting
Lecture at 'Convocation.
Prof. G. R. Chatburn gave an. illus
tiated lecture on ''The California
Earthquake" at Convocation yesterday
morning. Many of the pictures, ho

engineering point of view than from
any ot'ier, since tney showed places
where the horizontal level was not at
all disarranged, while others showed
upheavals and sunken places. Loland
Stanford University was badly dam
aged by the shock, but not by Are. He
showed pictures of the University,
large dowjvtown v buildings, street
scenes, and maps. ,
