GETTING READY.
Gophers Are Pulling Players Thru Ex
aminations. Minnesota will put a much better
team Into the game tomorrow than she
had against Ames last Saturday. Two
men who were kept out of the Ames
game on account of their studies have
taken special "exams" and have pull
ed thru them with colors flying high.
Here is what the Minnesota Dally
says about these men:
Case and Young will play the tackles
In the Nebraska game.
Just what this means to the team
may hardly be appreciated by' those
who have not been watching Its prog
ress closely, but the .aspect for next
Saturday looks at least fifty per cent
better with these two men as stum
bling blocks for the Nebraska offense
on Minnesota's line.
Case is not In tip top shape, but he
has been doing considerable training
during the last week and is carrying
little superfluous flesh at present.
George never could be lean, however,
and he will have fully 200 pounds to
hurl at the Nebraska Interference Sat
urday. Young divided honors with KJel
lund on the line Saturday and Is a
good man on both offense and defense.
Case took his "con" exam yesterday
morning and the result was announced
half an hour later to the delight of all
of those who had been watching the
Gopher line.
The Y. W. C. A." announces that Mrs.
Scoville, the wife of the evangelist,
will lead the noon meeting today. Mrs.
Scoville is an unusually attractive
woman, with a winning personality
and It will he a "distinct privilege for
the girls of the University to hear'her.
The meeting will be held at 11:50
n tho Y, W. C. A., room.

BALL-
ITS DEVELOPMENT
DR. SHAMBAUGH TELLS OF THE
ADVANCE OF THE WEST.
Iowa Professor Touches Upon
Some
Interesting Points of the Early
History of This Great Land. '
At chapel yesterday morning, Dr,
B. F. Shambaugh of Iowa Unlvorslty,
and socrotary of the Iowa State His
torical Society, spoko on tho subjoct
of "Tho WoBt." His address was full
of Interesting material for thought
Dr. Shambaugh explained that he
used the word "west" with a broador
meaning than that usually assigned
to it. Ho did not refer, to the terri
tory west of tho "Fathor of Waters,"
and not oven to the territory west
of tho Allegheny mountains, but in
cluded all America In his subject
He deflnod tho west as the placo
whore a man Is, and the Bast as tho
place where a man came from. The
West 'Is the placo where thore is
vitality, tho place where men do
things.
Ho spoke of Columbus as the first
westorner and showed how the west
has developed new Ideas and a new.
philosophy. Ho spoke of tho rapid
advances made during revolutionary
times; tho growth and enunciation of
the- Idea that all men aro croatod
equal, the Idea of the written consti
tution and government from such a .
constitution.
Dr. Stambaugh then outlined rapidly
the noxt stop in the development of
the West. He told how tho pioneers,
pushing forward with unheard of rap-.
Idly deposed the Indians and con
quered for advancing civilization a
tremendous area. Ho declared that
the external features of this advance
brought liberal Ideas and democratic
ideals. Men of grit; men of nerve,
men of broad and liberal Ideas and
tolerant of other's opinions wefe tho
products pf the West.
Conditions on the frontier were
great leveler; It was expected that
evoiy man would work whether ho
was rich or poor, and if ho would, not
the west was no place for him. The
frontier fostored a sympathetic attl-
tudo. It made men really democratic
and, fostered a threefold equality; '
equality before the law, equality In
the law, and equality In the making
of the' law. True, the west did not
first express these principles, but the
vitalizing of those ideas came from
the West
The pioneers were forced to bravely
fight the battles of a new country.
They succeedod and bad reason to, feel
proud of the great commonwealths
they had formed. They came to ,feel
that their lives w.ere a part of the.,
history of the community, and as a, .,
natural outcome tycal hlstoripalsp.
Cifties were formed. The real life
of. the American nation Ms not told
by 'congressional records', for fit is '
dp read over forty-five states and is '
best expressed by the Hfe.'of.-the .diff
erent communities. . " v '
It is sometimes contended that tho
