The last game of Intercollegiate
football on Nebraska Field will be
played at threo p. m., today when the
Cornhuskors moot the Doane eleven.
This Is the final homo contest on the
CornhuBkor schedule. Thanksgiving
they will close the season of 1907 at
St. Louis. Next year the , football
warriors of Nebraska, will struggle on
some, other grounds than the present
lot, called Nebraska Field, for next
spring the erection of an engineering
building will bo begun on the macad
amized gridiron and the Cornhusker
athletes will bo forced to find another
site for their contests.
Considerable Interest oJttacheJs ,tp
the game today, not because tho result
Is In doubt", but pwlng to the fact that
It is the last chance the local rooters
will have of Beelng Captain John Wol--ler
of the'Cornhuskers In action. Wel
ler's" college football career" will end
with this season and ho will not ap
pear before tho Nebraska' students
again. He has made a fine record at
the head of tho team this year and
the students are going to turn out this
afternoon to witness his passing.
Doane Is not regarded as a formid
able opponent by the Cornhuskors and
King Cole will attempt to use some of
his new plays bo that they may be
perfected before tho St. Louis game.
Tho regular team will' lino up. against
Doane in the first half and the scrubs
will probably play the second half.
The Nebraska' eleven will leave for
St. Louis Tuesday afternoon over the
Rock- Island. They will go via jOmaha
where tho Wabash will be taken to
St. Louis. While in tho Mound City the
Cornhuskors will stay at the Jefter
kon hotel. The team., will be accom
panied iby Coach Cole, Manager Eager,
Or. Everett, Dr. Lees and a representa
tive of the Dally Nehraskan.

PROFE8SOR 8AY8 SCHOLARSHIPS
ARE A GOOD THING..'
Richard F. 8cholz of Wisconsin, 'a
Former Roades 8cholar, Defends.
the Great Dreamer's Idea.
"Most pcoplo aro mistaken about
tho RoadoB Idoa," said Richard F.
Scholz of Wisconsin in a rocont loc
turo on "Oxford nnd tho Roados
Scholarship" boforo tho International
Club Saturday night. "Ono promlnont
educator hnsgono as far as to con
tond that anyono accepting such a
scholarship should bo doprlvod of citi
zenship. Others lravo lookod upon tho
Rhodes schorao as a chimera, as an
Impracticable dream. Yet thoro are
at Oxford today 1G0 scholars from
every part of tho globo, fromHho Brit
ish colonies, from America, and from
Gormnny ovory ono of whom llrmljc
boliovo in the Roades Idea."
Tho lecturor wont on to Bhow that
Cecil Roades has boon much misun
derstood. "Roades," ho said, "llkd all groat
men, has boon much misunderstood.
Tho koynoto to his charactor was not
tho love of money and of powor for
Its own sake; It was tho loyalty to an
Idea and to an Ideal. Ho regarded
money as a means, as a powor which
makes possible tho realization of his
Idea. Whllo roughing it In South Af
Tlca when ho was but twenty-four
years old, ho wroto down a "Draft of
My Ideas," giving as his aim nnd pur
pose in life tho furthoranco of, tho
British omplro, tho bringing of tho
wholo civilized world under British
rulo, tho recovery of tho United State's,
and the making of tho Anglo Saxon
raco but ono omplro. But his idoa
grow from tho narrower Imperialism
of empire based on British ascendancy
to an imperialism of race tho unit
of all English-speaking pooplos nd
In 1001, as Is evidenced by a codicil
to his ltfst will and testament, this' too
finally submitted to the Idea of inter
national peace."
Tho reason why scholarships wore
offered to Amorlcaris, and why, as
soon as tho emperor mado English in
tho Gorman schools compulsory, simi
lar scholarships wore offered to Gor
man students, appears from tho words
cf CeclLRoadeB, "Tho object is that
an understanding between tho three
groat powers will, render war impossi
ble and educational relations mako
tho strongest tie."
Tho endowment of ton million dol
lars provides for 78 scholarships for
tho colonies, 15 for Germany, and 96
for the United States, that Is, moro
than one-half aro awarded to tho
United States.
In speaking of the method of se
lecting Roades men, Professor Scholz
said, "Hero, too, thoro are many mis
taken notions. Above all things, the
trustees of tho Roades fund are
against any rotation scheme. Tho
scholarship ia by no means to bo
passed from one college In avatato to
another, but in every case the best
men from all colleges aro to winout
Moreover, tho examination la not com
petitive, but Blmply qualifying."
Tho football team will go to St.
Louis via the Wabash railroad. If
you want to go with tho team, apply
to Manager -Eager for tlckots. For
general' Information apply toHarry
Moores, Q. P. T. A., at Omaha. The
team leaves Tuesday at 2:40 p, m. yla
0. R. I. to Omaha, and then over the
Wabash railroad to St. Louis, leaving
Omaha at 6:30 p, m.
