SATURDAY.
The Nebraska Eleven Will Leave for
Minneapolis Tomorrow at Six
Over the Burlington.
' Tho Nebraska football team will
le'avo for Minneapolis via the Bur
lington, route tomorrow evening at six
o'clock to meet the Minnesota eleven
In the annual Gopher-CornhuBker grid
iron contest Saturday. The Cornhus
kers will be accompanied by Manager
Eager, Captain Worklzer and a small
body of rooters.
A large crowd of rooters will be at
the depot to give the team a royal
send off. The entire cadet battalion
and band will go to tho train to par
ticipate in the demonstration in hon
or of the team and every other stu
dent in the University who can yell
is urged to be there to help things
along.
Nebraska's chances for defeating
Minnesota Saturday are considered tho
best in years. The Gophers, as was
demonstrated in thoir game with Amea
Saturday are weaker than for some
years while Nebraska, no doubt," Is
much' stronger and much better coach
ed than for several seasons. These
conllitlons, according to Nebraska
"dope," " make, tho Cornhuakers'
chancesof victory excellent.
Altho tho Nebraska men did not
show up as well against Grlnnell ns
was hoped, yet their supporters feel
that they were over-condent in thai
game and did not realize they were
playing a good team. After" they found
they were up agalnBt a real strong
bunch they settled down to good work.
This fact haa led their supporters to
believe that they will go into the Min
nesota game, knowing that their op
ponents are strong and will play great
ball. . - -. ,
With tho Minnesota game onlyJa
few days off the football squad is mak-.
ing every effort to round intoahape
for the contest, which bids fair to bo
a close game.
A victory over tho Gophers is a raro
achievement forNthe Cornhuskers, and
the fact that Nebraska' this year
stands a' good chance to win has pitch
ed the "hopes of the4 Comhusko sup
porters concerning the outcome of next
Saturday's contest on Northrup Field
nt a. high pitch.
'"King" Colo has firmly convinced
' the supporters of his ability to mar
shal a strong, team and with the aid
of Assistant Coach Peck, who arrived
Sunday, tho Nebraska followers are

Gives Lecture at Chapel on University
Militant.
The Rev. Ferguson of Kansas City
spoke yesterday at chapel, on the" Uni
versity Militant." His talk was a
strong practical discussion' of the
University should have in American
life.
Ab an illustration of what he wishod
his subject, "Tho Unlveralty Militant"
to convey to his hearers, he told tho
story of an organization of thiw kind
in Kansas City. It is an organization
of college men to advance tho arts and
services In a practical way. It at
tempts to raise the standard of living,
and to make goftds cheaper. Dr. Fergu
son declared that he believed this
movement would spread and grow un
til It became greater than any polIU
cal or religious organization. Such an
organization is natural to our countrj
and particularly to the west This or
ganization comprises tho leading men
of Kansas City and other places. Men
of all political beliefs and of all walks
of life are membera. Governor Folk is
a member. The organization does not
strive for any abstract principle, it at
tempts to make each man an artiat
in his struggle for a better manner of
living. It attempts to help men to be
active aggressive thinkers instead of
bashful thinkers.
Dr. Ferguson declared that the Uni
versity is one of the deepest things
'In American life. He urged that tho
University must and will become the
University Militant, and that gradu
ates should carry this idea with them
when they go out into life.
