THE CORNHU8KER BANQUET.
Tho annual banquet to tho Nebraska
football team tonight comes at an op
portune and fitting time. It is on tho
day of tho lust football game of tho
fall when ovory student Is In tho right
mood to enjoy tho appetizing food and
rich wit which always aro a part of
tho CornhuBkor feeds. It promises to
bo a groat success In ovory way.
By holding tho banquet this ovoning
It' has boon poBBlblb to hnvo Coach
"King" Colo, Waltor Eokersall and
probably Coach Stagg of Chicago pres
ent. If tho banquet had boon hold on
any othor night thoso men could not
havo consented to attend. To have
thoso threo football notables togethor
with tho students is enough in itBelf
to mako tho annual feast a bucccsb.
Last year tho banquet pleased every
body who attended. The ono-tonight
will bo fully as good in every way
as tho ono laBt fall and undoubtedly
will givo as much satisfaction.

The resignation of Chancellor An

feelings of doep regret on tho part

so 'auspiciously, might be completed
before his active duties should end.

PENNY WANTS GAME
EAQTERNER8 ANXI0U8 TO MEET
CHICAGO NEXT FALL.
PLAY CONSERVATIVE E00TBUL
Coach 8tagg Impressed With Work
of Individuals, But Says There
Is a Lack of Daring At
tacks in the East.
CHICAGO, 111., Doc. 1. Moro large
games for tho Maroons woro bagged by
Director Stagg while ho was In the
east. Upon his urrival home yester
day tho coach stated that Cornell and
Chicago probably would meet In an
indoor track meet this winter. Nego
tiations havo not yet been closed, ac
cording to tho conch, but tho meet Is
assured, as both colleges desire such
a contest.
This was not tho only piece of good
news which Stagg brought back with
him. Chicago would havo littlo dlf
culty, he Buid, In arranging for a
gamo next fall with Pennsylvania if
tho MarooiiB wanted one, but It is
probable tho game will not bo played,
as Chicago, In Stagg's opinion, has
all and possibly more Uian it can
handle next fall.
This breaking down of the old bar
rier between eaBt and wcBt, as shown
by the willingness of both Cornell
and Pennsylvania to meet tho Ma
roons In track and football, wbb
hailed with delight by tho 'Midway
Btudents last night. They bollovo it
paves the way to at least one annual
match with tho oast in each branch
of tho major sports.
Will Be Feature of Season.
As Cornell has been leader In track
athletics In the east for the last two
years and as the Maroons are the
present conference track champions,
the moot, which In all probability will
be hold in Chicago, will be the feature
of tho Maroons' indoor season. No
date has been set for tho meet, but
It probably will take place late in the
winter season.
Stagg had little idea of garnishing
his schedules with eastern teams
whon ho left for tho east last Wednes
day. A Cornell official suggested a
dual Indoor meet between Cornell and
Chicago. This idea Stagg seized upon
at once, and expressed a willingness
on his part to take on the Ithaca
in the clothing business and
team. So negotiations begun more
or Icbs unofficially.
This will bo tho first time a Chicago
track team has met an eastorn team
Indoors. Several years ago tho Ma
roons mot Princeton outdoors at Mar
shall flold and lost by a small margin.
Track 8quad 8trong.
Stagg is looking forward to tho con
test with much interest, ns ho con
siders the material in Bight for hl&
team this year to be at least as good
tnd probably better than it was last
year; Cornell also has a strong nu
cleus, having its two Btars, Coo'x. who
won tho Olympic polo vault last sum
mer, and Talbot, the champion weight
thrower, again eligible.
While little Beems. to stand in the
way of a Pennsylvania-Chicago gamo
for next year, it is probable that tho
Quakers and Mnrcons will not meet
on tho football field in 1909, as the
Maroons have too heavy a schedule
ulready in sight Since Stagg has
declared that it will be impossible
even to meet' Michigan, should Michi
gan come back into tho conferoacei
fold, it is also jmp-ssihlo for the Ma
roons to meet tho Quakers.

iames, Director Stagg had the follow
r.ip to say:
"What impressed me most In the
Ar.ny Navy game was the fierceness
of the Individual play. The men "f
both teams played with a terrible do
'crminatlon and yet there was the
finest kind of spirit between the two
tonins. I was not bo much ImnreBsed
with the team work ub with the In
dividual' play. For Instance, only two
forward pnsseB were made in the
cranio Each team made one.
"I dont know what most' eastern
persons would think of the open cranio
s up play it In the west. I bollovo,
however thnt somo of them would not
like It. Thpy wou'd not call It foot
ball. Still. I can -say that I believe
theie was a lack of daring in the at
tars of the teams I saw in the east.

Compliments Navy Quarterback.
"Pr.th the Army and Navy teams
had three or four sar" whoso play
stood out prominently. The Navy
quarterVack was extremely good, espe
cially in running with the ball in the
open."
Stagg said ho hnd made no ar
rangements about his 1909 football
schedules. Ho declared ho did not
know what team's, other thun those
with which he had contracts, Chicago
would play.
Tho coach returned enrlied than h
had expected. Ho gave up his plans
of visiting eastern gymnasiums and
athletic fields.
