.IN MWEST TODAY
MANY GAME8 TO BE PLAYED IN
COLLEGE 8ERIE8.
BIO EIGHT WILL PLAY FIRST GAMES
Minnesota Plays Iowa at Minneapolis;
Purdue Meets Chicago at Chicago;
Yale and Syracuse Clash
at New Haven.
Today marks the actual opening of
tho gridiron season in tho west. Tho
("Bier Eicht" teamB formally Btart play
ing thlB afternoon and practically all
the other western toamB of any con
sequence follow their lead In the
east last week saw tho start in many
schools. This week brings more games
including some contests of major con
sequence. In tho west. Nebraska BtudentB are
chiefly interested In tho game between
Iowa and Minnesota, Which will bo
played on Northrup Field in Minneap
olis this afternoon. Iowa has been
working hard for this contest and
hopes to make a good showing against
tho Gopher team.
Purdue and Chicago clash on Mar
shall Field in Chicago in the game
which Purdue haB been fearing for tho
past three weeks. The Purdue men
aro exotremely eager to make a show
ing against Stagg's Maroons this year,
but tho earlineBB of tho date Is plac
ing them at a disadvantage.
Yale vs. Syracuse.
Other western games in which "Big
Eight" teams participate are thoso be
tween Indiana and De Pauw at Bloom
lngton and between Illinois and Mllll
kin at Urbana.
In the east one of the principal con
tests Ib that of Yale and Syracuse.
Yale will follow its traditional custom
of winning from the New York univer
sity in all probability, but the fight
will nevertheless be a pretty one to
witness. Syracuse has the reputation
of turning out "game" elevens, and
this year is said to be no exception to
the rule.
Other games to be played today are:
Carlisle Indians vs. Bucknell, at
Carlisle.
Brown vs. Colgate, at Providence.
Princeton vs. Stevens, at Princeton.
Harvard vs. Bowdoin, at Cambridge.
Dartmouth vs. Vermont, at Hanover.

Missouri Tigers vs. Monmouth, at
Columbia.
lowa-Mlnncsota.
Iowa City, la., Oct. 1. Twenty Iowa
football players left last night for Min
neapolis where they are to play with
tho Gopher eleven Saturday. The men
are all In fair shape and they expect
to hold their own against the Minne
sota team. Quarterback Feowlll bo
out of tho game on account of a dis
agreement over credits, but all the.
other veterans will be in the game.
Tho members of the team are in ex
cellent condition except Stewart Col
lins and Murphy. These backfleld men
all have ailments, none of which aro of
a serious character. Tho line-up is
also a conjecture, owing to the fact
that tho result sof the examinations
will not be announced until tho last
minute.
Last night the practice was fairly
satisfactory, declared the coach. The
freshmen were given tho ball and they
made two touchdowns. Tho offense of
the regulars was not tested at all, the
coaches using the entire afternoon to
strengthening the defense. Tho of
fense is still an uncertain quality and
though moBt of tho rooters are confi
dent that tho team will be a strong
football mechanism before the Benson
Is finished they are doubtful as to the
ability of the football players to hold
Minnesota level In Saturday's early
season contest.
"I have little to say," stated Coach
Grlfflth after tho prnctlco last even
ing. "Tho men aro in fair condition,
but It is certainly altogether too early
for as big a game aB that against Min
nesota. It 1b a toss up to tell how tho
follows will Btarfd up under fire."
Yale-Harvard-Princeton.
Qhicago, Oct. 1. With a goal from
the flold counting three points instead
of four, and with a few other changes
mado in the rules to clear up points
that havo been doubtful and to glvo
merit a better chance, the football sea
son of 1909 is now under way.
At Princeton they expect to develop
a football team this year that will bo
ablo to stand Yael's battering attack
through the second half of their an
nual Btruggle. Princeton has a new
coaching outfit, and its work will be
watched with unusual Interest, bo
ning toam is very promising,
cause there 1b good material In the
university, and the outlook for a win
"Bill" Roper, the energetic coach of
several years, who was able In 1907
and 1908 to put a team in the field
that outplayed Yale in the first half
of each contest, but collapsed in tho
second part of play, has given way
to "Jim" McCormlck, one of the beBt
plunging fullbacks In the history of
football; Phil King, '93, Howard Hen
ry, '04. and Walter Booth, '02. McCor
mlck is in charge as field coach, and
the other old stars are at his side
most of the time to advise and get
into the scrimninges when the occa
sion demands It.
Yale and Princeton will meet at New
Haven on Nov. 13.
Yale will go to Cambridge on Nov.
20 and try to get revenge for the 4 to
0 trouncing she received at the hands
of Harvard last year. She is likely to
have her hands full, too, because all
the Indications are that Captain Fish,
tho tall Harvard commander, will this
year lead a team that will be as
Btrong, if not stronger, than the one
which had all the strength of straight
attack Yale could muster last year,
and In addition, ."the ono best play"
that brought victory.
Although these two contests will
stand in a class by themselves, the
season will have other big attractions
and the country in general will not be"
without many good games.
For twenty-seven years William Cul
len Bryant Kemp has been a student
at Columbia University, and unless he
decides to work for a living he Is sen
tenced to work for life as a student.
'A quarter of a century ago a rich rel
ative died, leaving Kemp an annuity
of $2,500 with the provision that he
might have this amount only so long
as he remained a registered Btudont.
Ever since then Kemp has been try
ing not to graduate and .not use up all
the 260 courses in the curriculum be
fore he died. He is able to write half
a dozen degrees after his name and
before he dies he will probably havo
a list that will resemble the entire al
phabet. Some yearB ago Kemp applied
to the court to have the will so con
strued that he might leave the uni
versity and marry and still draw his
annuity. This was not allowed, how
over, so Kemp has remained unmar
ried, and still prefers the class halls
of Columbia to taking any chances of
making wealth and fame abroad.
A walking club composed of stu
dents of tho University of Pennsyl
vania was formed last January, and
sixty men took part In the first walk,
ono hundred and twenty-five In the
second and now there are over throe
hundred members. The object of this
club is to promote social fellowship
among the members, to take rambles
to places of Interest!, and thereby
receive that "pulsating" health and
buoyancy of spirits which can be ob
tained by indulging in this excellent
exercise.
The project is not original, as
"Father Jahn (father of the German
system of gymnastics) ubout ono hun
dred years ago formed a pedestrian
club composed of young men who,
while on their long walkB, would per
form' exercises' upon tho limbs of a
troo. From this- evolved our present
horizontal bar. On Inclement days
this band of young men resorted to a
room or hall and practiced gymnas
tics; thus tho Gorman turn voreln
came Into being, and la today one of
the great recognized bodies of gym
nastics. '
REGISTRATION NOT DP
TO EXPECTED FIGURE
TOTAL8 TO DATE ONLY 116 MORE
THAN LA8T YEAR.
I49 REGISTER DURING THIS WEEK
Treasurer Dales Takes In Fees
Amounting to Over $23,000 from
Students In Connection With
Enrollment.
Contrary to the expectations of two
weeks and a week ago, tno total reg
istration for the nine-month courses
of the university up to 6 o'clock alst
evening totaled only 116 more than
for the Blmllar period last year. An
increase of 200 bad been expected,
but it did not materialize.
Last year at tho close of registra
tion on Friday of the second week
there were 1,937 students enrolled.
This year at the same time there wore
2.035 registrations. There have been
only 149 registrations during the en
tire week, these being chiefly made up
by the enrollment of post-graduate
students and members of the Lincoln
city teachers force.
Yet at the present time the 2 000
mark has been passed and there will
probably be enough registrations dur
ing tho semeBter to bring the total to
over 2,100. Many new students, wll)
enter at tho February registration, bo
that tho total for the year to Juno 1st
will approach 2,300. Added to this
are the figures for the medical college
In Omaha, the state farm long and
short agricultural courses, tho school
of muBlc and the summer session.
When all of these are counted In the
grand totals there will undoubtedly be
over 4,000 names on tho registrar's
books.
Collections Mount Up.
The collections by Treasurer Dales
have Increased, slightly in accordance
with the Increased registration. Ac
cording to the totals completed by
Dr. Dales' office last night, each stu
dent paid on the average a little over
$11 for tho semesters .tuiuon. iuit
Included matriculation fees, and
charges of all sortB, including the big
Item of laboratory fees. It Is only
slightly larger than the amount for
the same purposes last year.
The collections for the year up to
yesterday are divided as follows:
Certificate Tees $ 20.00
Examination fees 1.00
Fine arts tuition 397.00
High school tuition 806.65

MAY FORM FENCING ASSOCIATION
Dr. Clapp Issues Call for Meeting at
6 p. m. Next Tuesday.
A fencing association may bo formed
at tho University of Nebraska. All
thoBo interested in fencing will meet
In Dr. Clapp's office In the Armory at
5 o'clock Tuesday evening to discuss
tho possibilities of such an organiza
tion and to plan the work in fencing
for this yenr.
Considerable interest has been tak
en of lato ears In this fine- art of
several hundred years ago. Two years
ago Captain Worklzor gaye a trophy
for the championship In fencing and
last year he and Dr. Clapp gave two
shields, which are on exhibition in
the trophy room. TheBO shields aro
to bo competed for for three years,
the names of tho winners of first place

ners of second place to be engraved
upon the other. After they havo been
competed for three years they aro to
bo placed permanently on exhibition
in the trophy room in the Tomple.

Reimers and second by F. M. Wll
dlsh. WANT TRAINING TABLE BIDS.
Football Committee Desires Figures
on Cost of Feeding Athletes.
Bids for tho establishment of the
football training table were ordered
received at the meeting of the foot-
Lball committee of the athletic board
yesterday morning. When the vari
ous persons desiring to board tho
Cornhuskor athletics make known tho
terms upon which they will feed tho
men, the committee will let the con
tract to tho most satisfactory bidder.
The committee yesterday fixed the
number of complimentary tickets to
bo issued to the games this fall and
determined to whom they should bo
given out. The employment of a gate
keeper was -discussed, but the lack of
a suitable applicant delayed action.
Other matters of minor Importance
were considered.
PALLADIANS HOLD RECEPTION.
Literary Society Welcomed New Stu
dents Last Evening.
The Palladlan literary society held
open house at ito rooms on the third
floor of the Temple last evening. The
occasion was that of the regular an
nual reception to now students, which
is tendered each fall.
Nearly a hundred members of the
society and new students were pres
ent during the evening. A musical
and literary program was interspersed
with a period for general conversa
tion, during which new students and
old became generally acquainted.
At present only two universities In
Ireland are recognized by the gov
ernment Trinity and its afllllated col
leges, composing the University of Du
blin, and (he so-called Royal Universi
ty, also situated in Dublin, but with
out faculty or students, and intended
only for the conferring of degrees
upon the graduates of affiliated col
leges situated at Belfast, Galway,
Cork, and seml-lndependent medical
medical, law and scientific schools In
Dublin. None' of these institutions,
however, receive grants from the gov
ernment excopt the three colleges
mentioned, all of which bear the
same name Queens' College and are
condemned as "Godless collegeb"
among the religious people, because
they have no chapels, no religious ex
ercises and no religious Instruction.
No clergyman Is ever appointed upon
the board of trustees or Is allowed to
participate in the management. They
are not prohibited from being elected
to the faculties, but their clojrlcal
character Is entirely ignored and they
rank precisely with other Instructors.
The three Queens' Colleges aro al
most entirely supported by tho state,
the fees being merely nominal.
Many Irish students go to the Eng
lish universities because the Roman
'Catholic bishops havo placed a ban
upon these "Godless colleges" and al-
,so upon tho Trinity college because It
would not admit Catholics ror cen
turies. There is no Institution for
higher education in Ireland which a
Catholic student can attend except for
tho study of theology. The sp-caUed
"Irish universities bill' now pending
in the Houst of 'Commons Is Intended
to supply this deficiency and to creato
two great institutions, ono under tho
care of the Roman Catholics and the
other under tho cate 'of the non-conformist
churches by consolidating In
stitutions that already exist and add
ing new ones to fill the necessary
crans.
