NEBRA8KA-IOWA GAME 18 FIR8T
CONTE8T ON GRIDIRON.

Iowa Men Delayed In Arrival Till
After Midnight, But Reports In

Exaggerated.
Nebraska meets Iowa in the annual
football gamo on Nebraska field tblB
afternoon, and the chances are that
iho gamo will be a battle-royal. Iowa
is going to fight hard for the gamo. A
victory over Nebraska thlB afternoon
would put the defenders of the "Old
Gold" in the running again and give
them a chance for the Missouri Val
ley championship.
Meanwhile Nebraska must not bo
idle. Much depends on the gamo thlB
afternoon, almost as much as depend
ed on tho Minnesota gamo of a week
ago. So far this week tho Cornhusk
era havo manifested a spirit of indif
ferences towards tho Iowa gamo. Tho
whole talk has been, "We must boat

erally been considered an easy propo-

sition and victory over them a fore

Iowa Bear Tales.
Tho Iowa coaches havo been send
ing out numerous bear Btorles, tales
of cripples and injuries, indifferent
playing and tho like. It is not im
probable, however, that Iowa "will
spring a surpriso in tho game thiB af
tornpon and mage King Cole's huskies
play for their monoy. It must not be
forgotten that It is two weeks since
Iowa mot Minnesota, and much im
provement can be made in a team in
that 'time. If any doubt this let them
witness the wonderful improvement
made by the Cornhuskers in the two
weeks intervening between tho Dakota
and Minnesota games.
Will Be a Hard Battle.
Some criticB are of the opinion that
the Cprnhuskers are in for a trim
ming when they go against the Hawk
oyos this afternoon. Tho practice the
wholo week has been distressingly
ragged, it being difficult for tho var
sity to make a good showing against
tho freshmen. However, this may all
bo, .no one -will doubt that Nebraska
is up against a hard proposition this
afternoon, and( it will take every ounce
of, strength in the team topull out a
victory. '
Following bo close on to the Minne
sota game the Cornhuskers will be un
able to present an intact lineup this
afternoon, Bentloy is still out of tho
game and win likely not go in at all.

UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, SATURDAY,
Colo will bo pretty nearly up against
it. Franck can be switched to quar
ter, but ho has not fully recovorod
from tho effects of last Saturday's
gamo and may not be able to romain
through tho entire contest. Besides ho
is needod at half back. Sturtznegger
may bo used at quarter, but ho will!
undoubtedly be called upon to take
either Franck's or Beltzer's place at
half before tho game is over. Tho
quarter back situation is unquestion
ably a serious one.
Nebraska must win today's gamo,
but how is she going to do It? There's
tho rub. The main hopo is in the
gamoness of tho Cornhuskor elovon.
The Nebraskans in the same physical
condition as a wook ago could easily
put the Iowans out of business. But
the Cornhuskers aro far from being in
that Bamo physical condition, while
tho IowanB presumably aro in perfect
condition. Tho two linos are on a par
as to weight, while Iowa has much
tho heavier back-field.
Iowa Men Late.
Tho Iowans were billed to arrive In
Lincoln last night at six .o'clock, but
owing to a broken rail east of Coun
cil Bluffs they wore dotal nod on tho
road and did not arrive until twelve
forty this morning. They have their
headquarters at tho Royal and will
take a long rest this morning so as to
be in shapo for the afternoon gamo.
Colo gavo his men a liard workout
yesterday. Much attention was given
to signal work and instruction on the
manner of breaking up tho Iowa plays.
No official lineup was announced for
this afternoon, but tho Cornhuskers
will probably lino up as follows:

without oven disturbing the peace of
a quiet afternoon, the club sprang the
surprise yesterday when it departed
for Lincoln park to disport itself upon
tho green.
Football Game.
It was a surprising thing to do, but
they did it. They held a football game
which, it is safe to say, stands alone
among tho games of the west. Tho
juniors, seniors and alumni played
against the freshmen and sophomores.
Professor Pool and Professor Phillips
umpired the battle.
Besides the game, these sportive
treeologlsts stayed for supper. And
what Is more, they built a campflre
and whiled away the time well into
tho dark hours with tales and songs.
R. D. Garver and W. W. Bennett had
charge of the affair. It Is a custom

Further Activities.
Yet who knows, as these foroBtors
of Nebraska sat about the glowing
embers of the campflro, what schemos
for further conquest wore hatched
thero in tho dond of night? It is oven
rumored thut thoro was talk of a glee
club. PorhapB insptrod by tho songB

tho thought itself. Another idea 1b a
forestry annual combining everything
of interest to club mombors in ono
publication. Such a book without a
doubt might well bo used as a test
book, novel, storlott, or sparkling
book of humor.
But those who know tho doings of
that band of foroBtors thoro beneath

yet confirmed tho funcloB either as
rumors or truth. Tho astounded stu

ask, "What next?"
