played on a dry Hold bo that a good
lino on the Cornhuskor's prospects
may bo obtained.
Play Was Slow.
In Saturday's gamo tho team as a
wholo played slowly. They Old not
start quickly or together and their
old tlmo snappy gamo was noticeably
lacking. Another feature of play
which has alwayB characterized Ne
braska's football teams was wanting
Saturday, the men did not help the
man with tho ball by holding him up,
pushing, pulling, or dragging him
along. These tactics are extremely vtl
vnble and doubtless they will be em
ployed to tho greatest advantage as
the season advances.
Coach Colo took ad van t ago of the
opportunity Saturday to try out a
great many now men. Wolcott re
placed CollinB at the end of the first
half and ho showed up well against
Swenson, the heavy Peru center. El
liott wont In at guard and seemed to
have no dlfllculty in taking care of
his man during the tlmo ho wan in
tho gamo. Spellmeyer of last year's
oophomoro team, took Bower's place
and Sturtznegger replaced Kroger at
fullback.
In tho back field Hnscall took Rath
bone'B place at quarter and ran the
team in good shape. His misjudging
a punt was excusable since nc one
thought it posBlblo to kick the mud
soaked ball so far as tho Peru punter
did ou that occasion. Dwlght Bell re
placed Beltzor at left half toward the
cIobo of tho game. Slaughter took
Arnold's place at right half and made
several good gains. The work of Ar
nold at half was watched with con
siderable interest, as ho is regarded
as likely material, and so far aB could
be judged Saturday, ho appears to be
a good man. unaioupka was taKon
out early in the game on account of
a slight Injury and ho failed to show
up for practice last evening.
Cooke Returns.
At practice laBt evening the return
of "Pip" Cooke, last season's sensa
tional quarter back, was the occasion
for general rejoicing. Tho Quarter
back proposition has been one of the
most serious obstacles in Coach
Colo's path, but now with the return
of both Cooke and Bentley, It seems
effectually disposed of. There are
now eleven "N" men on tho squad,
counting Minor, who will be eligible
again as soon as he removes a con
dition in rhetoric. This will make a
complete team of "N" men possible
and the outlook is accordingly very
encouraging. Coach Cole's principal
dlfllculty from now on will be to de
velopo substitutes who can fill the
places of the veterans in case some
of them should be kept out of the
game on account of any of the In
numerable contingencies which may
arise. -

Dlroctor Stagg predicts' victory for
his Maroon footballists in tho opeuing
gamo of the season with Coach Fred
Spelk's Purdue eleven at Marshall field
noxt Saturday. Ho bolieQ9, howovor,
tho scoro will be a tiny ono. Ho ex
pects to win on slmplo elemcnlar foot
pects to win on slmplo elomontary
plays at least that it what ho statod
yesterday.
Two touchdowns would bo a most
pleasing margin of victory for tho Ma
roon coach, but ho is not suro his mon
can run over tho Boilermaker athletes
so easily. It Is probablo that half tho
Maroons' points will bo scored by Cap
tain Steffen, olthOr on a long run or
by means of a drop kick, and tho tquru
Is boing coached with thlB In viow.
"Purdue will givo us trouble," said
Stagg. "But I beliovo wo ought to win.
We have a slight advantage in tho fact
that Speik is handicapped by not
knowing hlB squad as ho might if he
had been at Purdue a longer tlmo. In
changing conditions as ho muBt bo do
ipg, It requires moro tlmo for tho de
velopment of an eleven.
Strong Opposition Expected.
"Still, FergUBon was there all spring
and got a lino on tho men at that tlmo,
and ho, of course, has given all his in
formation to Speik. I don't know how
many old mon are back at Purdue, but
I understand the material has been un
usually good, and wo can expect to go
up agalnr.t a better team than Purdue
has turned out in many seasons. I
would not venture a prediction on the
score, but I would be well satisfied If
we got as many as two touchdowns.
We will use so few playB, and those
we do use will be so simple that we
will not have much of a variety in our
offonBO. I don't know how well our
line Is going to hold, and I am doubtful
of its endurance."
Stagg's remarks about the simplicity
of his plays came as a source of sur
prise to many at the Midway, as he
has been drilling his team in brand
new plays which never have been seen
in the west before These plays have
to do with the forward pass, and thoso
who have seen them declare they will
prove strong ground gainers.
Michigan.
ANN ARBOR, Mich., SepL 27 The
Michigan football squad will begin
hard work tomorrow In preparation for
the Case game next Saturday. The
buckeyes for several years have
opened the schedule for tho Wolver
ines, and at times have proved hard
propositions. Most of the week will
be given over to formation practice,
and it is announced the forward pass
will bo prominent in Michigan's plays.
Yost is finding his most serious trouble
with tho line. The loss of Harry Ham
mond, Reinschlld, and "Octy" Graham,
1b keenly felt, and, moro than that,
some of the most likely candidates for
line positions will be kept out of the
initial games on account of deficien
cies in studios.
Illinois.
URBANA, 111., Sept 27. Lyon Gard
iner, Illinois' best half-back and punt
er, captain last season, on whom the
alumni coaches depended greatly, has
failed to arrive as hoped and his pro
tracted absence Is causing a lot ot
worry. Gardiner's recent illness, which
put him about twenty pounds under
weight, Is believed to bo the cause of
his delay and It Is feared even if he
returns this week that ho will be un
able to play in tne Chicago game.
Gardiner's loss would be serious, and
would reduce the number of veterans
from nine men counted on by tho Illlnl
until Green and Litt tell by tho way-
sldo In their studies. ,
"I have not given Gardiner up,"
said Captain Van Hook, "and If his
health is all right he will be able to
take his place in the line-up in short
order."
Van cook's optimism regarding the
crick half-back is hardly shared .by the
uneasy rooters, however. The first
wek of practice, which ended, yestor
.day was characterized by iue players
Via being the hardest of' their careers.
Many plays have been learned and
Wltn a change in the weather promjsed
it is probable that there will be a
scrimmage for the first time tomorrow
or Tuesday. Trainer Rudderbam is
expected to arrive tomorrow.
One ot the beefiest lines in-orange
and blue annals will be pitted againBt
the maroon forwards October 17, with
Captain Van 'Hook, 225; ltallsback,
MO; Wham, 185; Twist. 240; Kimball,
200; Ekblaw, 185, and other" husky
candidates to choose from.
Director Huff expects to go to Chca-
go this week to confer with the rail
road regarding a Z excursion to Mar
shall field. If this. Is granted 2,000
rooters will follow the. llilnl.
