Now, thiB fall tho unruly Bphit which
prompts the older classmen to at

Five young huskies, composing the
class in timber mensuration of tho
forestry department of tho University
or Washington left tho roaring city
yesterday and streaked' it for the tall
uncut, where they will study nature,
first-hand. The party will spend ten
days at Montesano watching the log
glng operations at the camp of the
Chehalis Timber Company. Luckily
no camping is necessary, as the class
will live with the logging crew.
There the students will study the rate
of growth, and the yield ot timber, giv
ing, special attention to tho rod fir.
The best methods of cutting and han
dling tho timber will also bo observed,
though this is of secondary Import

INDIANS' GREAT ELEVEN

Contest.

Coach Warner and his men, proud i
of having beaten Pennsylvania flvo
out of nine games, are now putting the
finishing strokes to their preparations
and tho Indian team that takes the
Hold Saturday will represent tho best
material, an eleven trained as are
few teams.
In loot hall the Indian team has
been a veritable rod porll for tho last
decade. Tholr exploits slnco 1899 have
been little short of morvoloiiB and
there is not a team on their schedule
but who.! regards tho Indian game as
ono of the. hardest.
When Carlisle started to play foot
ball, fourteen years ago, tho venture
was regarded as a Joke. Tho eleven

won only one, defeating tho Harris-

lng a good game against Yale, which
ended 18 to 0. the redskins began to
attract attention from tho football
world.
Progress continued steadily till in
1890, when the. Indians won their first
victory of importance, downing Dick
inson 28 to G. The team of that year
played Princeton, Yale, Harvard and
Pennsylvania, scored on tho Klls and
Tigers and held Harvard to a scant 4
to 0 victory. The Quakers' 21 to 0
score was tho only t'ount of any size
mode by opponents.
In 1890 "Pop" Warner assumed

men of tho forest, and from that time

the greotest teams In the history of

Two Poor Seasons.
The 1900 team went back a little
and lost by big Bcoros to Yale, Har
vard and Pennsylvania. "Nineteen
hundred and ono was, oIbo a bad yeur
and tho team lost seven gamoB, won
four, and tied ono. Cornell, Harvard,
and Michigan all took tho measure of
the fleet Indians. But tho warriors
camo back in 1902, and, though losing
to Harvard, had tho satisfaction of
.boating ' Pennsylvania.
In 1903 tho Indians boat everybody
except . Princeton and Harvard, and
fell only one point behind the latter.
Pennsylvania, Swarthmore and North
western were included among tho vic
tims. Penn's great eleven v of 1904
succeeded in walloping the redskins,
by eighteen points and Harvard also
beat thorn, but no other team was
equal to the task. Tho same teams
again turned the trick in 1905.
Since that time tho Indians have
lost only two games. Harvard beat
thorn 5 to 0 In 190G and Princeton de
feated thorn 16 to 0 last year, but
Syracuse, Michigan and Pennsylvania
twice, and Harvard, Minnesota and
Chicago once have fallen victims in
that period to the skill of tho original
owners of tho land.

Genius of Hard Work.
Most persons have assumed that the
Indians' wonderful performances re
sulted solely from the natural skill
of the red men, but such is not the
case. The genius of hard work plays
the greatest part In the success of
teams wearing the big "C." No squad
in the country is driven as hard as
the Indians. The head coach, War
ner, believes constant practice is tho
price of football success, and there is
being tackled, and to dodgo and catch
punts.

this practice first, tho same ob tho
humblest hunch of scrubs. There is
no man on the team who becomes so
skilled that he is allowed to lose sight
of the foct that a never coaslng prac
tice at the rudiments Is tho best way
to develop a winning football team.
And that is the explanation of the
skill with which the Indians follow tho
ball, and con be relied on in case of
fumbloB to recover the ball four timos
out of five.

What Pennsylvania specially needs
to watch is tho Indian use of tho for
ward pass. This has been developed
by the aborigines to a great degree
of perfection. Thoro is nothing hap

E. FLEMING,
FOR FAIR PLAY.
Probably tho ono feature of Satur
day's game with Nebraska, outside the
playing, was the thoroughly sports
manlike attitude of the Minnesota
rooters towards their opponents.
When the Nebraska team came on the
field, when their band appeored and
marched to their place, and when
their Individual players were laid low,
they were cheered repeatedly. It was
the worthy treatment of a worthy
foe.
Too bod that such a record could
not hnvo gone unblemished.. It must
be the regret of every right-minded
Minnesota man that the disgraceful
incident which took place after the
game In which the concerted attempt
was made by a number of rowdies
I blush to confess they were college
men to sieal tne hat ot a Nobraska
student, who was standing alone.
Such (leplcable conduct con only de
servo the universal condemnation of
our entire student body. Only by
decisively placing the stamp of dis
approval on such actions can such'
practices be stopped or can we hope
to retain our present reputation or

or our opponents not only on, but off
the field, a reputation that should bo

DOGS ON THE MISSOURI CAMPUS.
All the Dogs In Town Were Staked
Out.
"Dog-gone" wos tho expression used
by many or Columbia's worthy citizens
on Monday morning. And that state
ment was very truthful, for on that
morning dogs of all kinds were scarce
except in one place; the campus
around the modicul building of Mis
souri university. Here were "staked
out" dogs of varied descriptions.
There were pointers, setters, bull
dogs, collies, curs and a largo ma
jority were Just ordinary dogs.
Tired or being lectured to every day
by their profs, on anatomy, physiology
and pathology, the sapn-medlcs at

amples of tholr seniors. So each pro

W(rj not tho usual ologant kind, yet
tho heavy twine held the dogs as well
as engraved collars and nlckoted
chains. Tho show was very "noisy"
to Bay the least since mo dogs woro
perfect strangers to each other and
tho would-be practitioners added much
to the din, each claiming tho super
iority of his dog over the otnors.
