THINGS LOOK BAD INJURIES AND RAIN DAMPEN THE HOPES OF CORNHU8KER8. Crldlron Muddy and 8quad Holds i,. Praotlce at State Farm Ames f, Aggies' Feeling Confident. A With one of tho hardest games of the season at hand the Cornhuskors are in worse condition for a contest than they havo been at any other time tjiis year. Two or three players are on the hospital list and will be in poor shape for Saturday's game and the Cornhuskera will bo in a weakened- condition 'when they meet the Iowa Aggies on this account. Besides hard luck from injuries to men, tho team has also suffered 'in being handi capped by the rain in practice. Practice'wns held at tho State Farm Wednesday. The field was soft, but Jar better than that of tho gridiron. The scrimmaging was a disappoint ment to "King"Cole, tho varsity giv ing a lifeless exhibition of football, much the same as that of the first half of the Colorado game. Follow ing the 'scrimmage, signal practice was engaged in, which moved swiftly and without errors, fcreatly encouraging the coaches. ( Craig's return to the squad has greatly improved tho prospects- for Saturday's game and his defensive game' in the Ames contest of last year haB not been forgotten by Corn liusker supporters. Harry Minor Is still on the hospital list, but by keeping out of scrimmago practice' this week ho is hoping that tho improved condition of his badly wrenched knee .will warrant his par ticipation in the Ames gamo Satur day. Yesterday tho team went to the State Farm. The football situation In the Ames camp is described in the following dispatch from Ames: The practice thlB week Is behind the canvas, aB "King" Cole hap Wil liams worried. Sioux Jones' Reserves will use the Nebraska stylo of play and the lyarsity will be drilled to - meet it.5 ' All that knowledge and skill con devise will be used to find a means jf breaking up the Nebraska- forma- tions-;v;." The line men Especially will be given sope strenuous work, in the first part of the Cornell gamo they were out played both on offense and defense. and must be braced up bo fore the game next Saturday.. Dren. nan, a guard on last year's champion ship eleven, will be out this week to assist; Williams with the line men. , There is a feeling of doubt among the students as to tho outcome pt the game at Lincoln. Most of them ex pected at least twenty-five points to bo run up against Cornell and the small 'score -has given them a scare. Nebraska seems to be doing 'some rail thinking, too. A letter wa's re ceived by the editor of the I. S. C. Student from the editor of the Dally (Continued on page 4.) CCCK0K3 Bessie grand 1 (oncert CHto)Kro)K)00KCKJK AME8 WEAK? Opinion In Ipwa That Aggies Are Not 8trong. Tho following diBpatch to tho Chi cago Record-Herald from Ames gives a lino on tho "dope" at that school. "King" Colo, coach of tho Nebraska University-football team, lias declarorf that unless tho Cornhuskors shoWf marked improvement during tho com ing week Ames will win next Satur day by a substantial scoro. Ho states .that he watched tho Ames-MInnosota game several weeks ago and he was greatly Impressed with tho way in which tho team worked at that time, and he believes that Juat now Ames Is one of the strongest teams In tho West. But throughout tho Btato of Iowa a contrary opinion provails. Both teams aro believed to bo min imizing their strength In an attompt to deceive tho opposing squad. But U Is known that both Coaches Colo and Williams are making desporato efforts to perfect thoir formations. And it Ib alBo predicted that tho com ing strugglo between the two teams will bo one of the .most sensational In western football this season. Tho secret work on tho Aggies' field continues. A great deal of attention In being given to Thayer's kicking and Williams believes that both teams will be forced to pjay a punting gamo. Followers of tho gamo believe that Williams has mado a real find in Stouffer, tho big loft end who is prov ing himself to bo a strong. running mate for McElhennoy on the other side of tho lino. Two brothers, Cy and Guy Lambert, aro playing tho half back positions, and both aro making good. Tho quarterback position romaina unsettled as yet. Both Hubbard and ex-Captain Jeanson aro candidates, but Williams is having a hard time to -decide which of them will play the bet ter game for Amos.

J "King" TJSle Urges Students to Have Spirit That Crowe Stronger With DefeatSpeaks of Anies Game. Tho third football rally of tho yoar was hold in Memorial Hall yestorday morning. Dr. Boulton, with -tho aid of "thormo-pnoumatics," prosldod over tho meeting, and taught the root ors how to act when thoir support is noedod on tho athlotio flold. Dr. Condra was tho principal 'spoak or and mado one of tho finest talks that has boon hoard at a football rally In years. His talk voiced tho kind of Nebraska spirit which would raiBe Nebraska to a hlghor level aB a col lego and make hor spirit famous throughout tho country, if it wore to become gonoral. Ho. doclared that ho did not think wo appreciated our colors, tho scarlet and tho cream. Do our graduatoa really understand the things for which our colors stand? Wo havo a most fortunate combination of colors, ono of tho most significant in tho West, especially for a co-educational school; Tho scarlet stands for tho strength Of manhood. Mon should roprosont sturdlnoss. Wo Bhould move and act as men. Our collogo being established on tho plains of tho West', wo Bhould develop a. college spirit, and a sturdy energetic manhood that will mako our Bchool famous. Those things iro pos slblo for the University of Nebraska Tho cream Btands for purity anL; fair play. Dr. Condra declared that' it was always particularly hard for.' him to hear tho call "rotten" hurled, at officials In tho gamo whpn thoy make an unpopular decision. Thoy aro most certainly trying their b'est to treat both sides fairly and tho spirit of fairness at Nebraska should, prevent such exhibitions of rowdyism on Nebraska field. Tho gamo next Saturday Is going-to. be a fight to the finish. Ames is a collogo of tho plains and has the same' determined flghtlrig spirit which we have at Nebraska. It is going to be! necessary for each man to vigorously do his duty arid fool that tho responsi bility for victory rests upo nhlm if! we aro victors. - Coach Colo was called upon and rfc sponded briefly in his characteristic earnest manner. Ho spoke of tho ex ceedlngly great difficulties under which Nebraska is laboring at the' present time. However, he declared that if the student body as a whole becomes imbued with the fighting, Un yielding spirit which will grow more determined as conditions grow darker, wo carinot and will notrbe defeated.
