CORNHUSKER8 LOOKING FOR
WARD TO 8T. LOUIS GAME.
Practice, at Antelope Park This Week
Guard Frum'a Shoulder 8till In
Bad Condition Other Notes.
t. w
' Practice this week is being hold at
Antolopo Park in preparation for the
big Thanksgiving game with St. Louis.
The men 'are all in good condition,
save Frum whoso shoulder is still
troubling him. No injuries were re
colved in the game with Denver last
Saturday, and "barring further acci
dents' which might occur in practice,
the team will be In excellent form
when jtlioy entor'tho game on TTirkey
day.
According to an interview published
; ' In. a St. Louis paper Manager Lans--
.don of 'Kansas was quoted as saying,
after the game between St. Louis and
Kansas, In which the latter was beat
en 17-0, that he "believed Nebraska
to be stronger thah St. Louis, and that
ho' expected a rather easy victory for
Nebraska on Thanksgiving day. This
prophecy Is regarded with suspicion
by Coach Cole, who declares It will
not be allowed to interfere for a min
ute with his program, and that stiff
practice will bo held every afternoon
In preparation for what Is expected to
ho the stlffest Dght of the entire sea
son. "I believe I am wise to -the scheme
of the St. 'Louis people," says Coach
Cole "They 'want. to mako us think
thoySiro easy, tout we should do noth
ing of jtho .kind. Our assistant coach,
Peck, hns seen St. Louis In action
and" he, tells me that Cochem's men aro
"capable of playing whirlwind football.
We expect the hardest kind f a
battlo, but wo hope to be prepared
for thorn."
"With the forward pass and on side
kick working 'to almost perfection as
, It did In the Denver game, Nebraska
should stand a good chance of defeat
lug "St. Louljs. Th'ose plays worked
with great success In the recent games
And with the addition of several new
formations which Colo Is developing
In dally practice, to those already on
thojlst, the Cornhusker followers are
confident that' Cochem's "pupils wjfll
run-up against the strongest opposi
tion they have, oncouniered this
year, and aro predicting victory for
the Oqruhuskers.

8PEAJ8 ON CHARACTER AND
WORK OF CHARLE8 SUMNER.
Declare There Is 8ome Truth In Dlff
erent Ideas of Sumner's Charac
ter His Early Ambitions.
Charles Sumner, the great loador
In tho strugglo ngalnst slnvory ,was
to subject of a talk by Profesor Ayora
at Chapel yeBtorday morning. Charles
Sumner Is of peculiar Interest, to us
at Nobraska bocauso tho great work
of Sumner culminated in tho Kunsas
Nebraska struggle.
It was tho work of Charlos Sumner
that thwarted tho attempt of tho
South to mako Kansas a slavo stato
and It was for this work that ho noarly
gave his lifer Ho was tho most promi
nent nntl-Blavery leader, and his groat
reputation rested on the fact that 'ho
was tho groat exponent of antl-slavory.
Ho would havo boon famous howovor
lf'ho had never defended tho cause of
the negro.
For a time Snmper was an Instruc
tor In law at Harvard, whore it was
generally considered that ho would
Bhortly become a full professor. Later
he studied In Europo whore his repu
tation for ability as a scholar becamo
so groat that It affected tho feeling
of Europo for America more than tho
ability. of any other, before or aftor
him.
Although an ardent anti-slavery, man
he was ono of tho most conservative
of tho republicans during tho civil
war. Ho became recognized by for
eign nations as tho foremost dlplo
mat In America. Ho, It was, who pre
vented tho war with England. It Is
vory probable that If he had lived,
many of tho difficulties under recon
struction would havo been avoided.
There are two Ideas hold regarding
his charactor. By some people ho Is
regarded as kind-hearted, fearloss'and
far-seeing. By others ho Is regarded
as a haughty and not approachable
There Is a cortain amount of truth in
both these Ideas. Those characterise
'tics which called down sneers only
added to his strength.
Two dl flic ill tie b to be overcome be
foro Sumner could accomplish his llfn
work were the condition of his birth
and his love of study and books. Theso
obstacles, ultimately ,only contribu
ted to his S.UCCCSS. His great ambition
had been to become president of Har-vard-Collogo
but ho give this up when:
ho was elected 'tB tho Senate.
