Nebraska won from Donvor Satur
day by the decisive score of 27 to 0.
-The Cornhuskors played, the Dendr
ites off their feet, scoring the first
touchdown after four mlnuteB of play.
Denver was beaten, hopelessly and
Irretrievably, In the first quarter of
the game. Nobrnskn,..started with a
whirlwind attack and tore groat holeB
In Denver's defense with apparent
ease.
Whllo the big score Nebraska piled
up would seem to 'Indicato that Ne
braska has the far stronger team of
the two schools, Denverplayed to hard
luck and tho score doeB not, show an
accurate 'comparison.
Denver had a strong team -there Is
no denying that fact but, whether it
waB tfio change of atmosphere or
merely an "off day," they could pot
get 6ff;:on the rlgh't foot. Their for
ward passes Called to work anil plays
whlch'othorwlso would havo brought
big-gains wore nipped In the bud by
' unfortunate fumbles.
; New Plays successful.
rThq7now( shift plays which Coach,
Cole has been pounding into' the Corn
huskors Blnco the Minnesota game
proved the best ground gainers Been
on tho Nebraska field for years.
Through ono side of the. lino and then
through the other, nround right end
and then around left, ,the Cornhuskors
went for yard after yard, falling -to
make their dlBtonco, only twice during
' the game. "
A close game had been looked for,
V but a battle like the one fought to a
victorious finish by the weavers of the
Scarlet and Croani was mor'o .than was
expected by any rooter who saw the
game,
Not once wero tho Denvorltos dan
gerously near the. Nebraska goal.
Twice the 'Coloradbs wore within strik
ing dlstanco-rklcklng dlstancprbut
both attempts to put a drop kick over
tho bar failed.
. Two In First Quarter
The CornhiiBkers crossed the goal
lino foflotfehddwhstwlcerin the first
quarter. During the second and third
periods Denver rallied and played No
brasknn an oven game. But in the
fourth period-the DonverlteB' strength
scorned to leave them and tho Corn
huskors broko looso and tore things
up for threo more touchdowns."
There was more good football to the
square inch In the gamo Saturday
than to the squaro foot In any of the
othqr games here so far this season.
If Nebraska was weak on offense in
tho South Dakota or Minnesota gamo,
nil trace of tho weakness has since
disappeared. Tho gamo brought to the
minds of old grads tho days when Ne
braska would go through a season
without boing scored against. Ne
braska's offense was brilliant, spectac
ular and the Interference on end runs
and forward passes was clever work.
Stars for Nebraska.
Owen Frank, Shonka, Chauner and
Warner wero Nebraska's stars. Owen
was at his best and carried the ball for
long gain's bothjonend runs and line
plunges. Shonka played his best game
aB a cornnusKcr. no nas always
played a hard, conscientious game, but
his work Saturday, particularly In car
rying the ball, was brilliant. Chauner,
whllo he fumbled ono or two forward
passes which wero unusually dlfllcuit
to handle, hold down his end to per
fection. "Jerry" Warner made his
moBt spectacular plays on defense. He
broke up interference and nailed tho
mail with the ball whenever he had a
fair chance.
Other Cornhuskors who deserve
mention for their work are: Harmon,
Collins, Hornberger, Sturmor, Temple,
Lofgren, RubscII, E. Frank, Minor and
Rathbone.
The Girls Were There.
The girls' section of tho stand was
tho only place where tho .Scarlet and
Or.onm. was really In evidence. Tho lit
tle Bcctlon was a single mass of the
university colors.

"Wo must beat Doane. .
"The Cornhusker", as sung from the
girls' section had more real music In
it than tho smo solectjonAas rendered
by tho bleachers. "
Scarlet and cream deraocratlons
were even distributed, through tho at
mosphere. Small scarlet balloons
waving cream ribbons over and anon
throughout tho game sailed merrily
across tho field. ., ,
. Chauners ninety-yard run for a
touchdown on a forward, pass from

play of tho game. It was'V perfect

two lower-classes are working out tho
details of their organization for the
fray.
On next Saturday morning at nine
o'clock, tho two armies of enthusiastic
classmen will' assemble on tho grid
Iron. Thoy will not be clad In the
armor of the chivalrous ages nor tho
gaudy garb of tho Spanish bull
fighter, but rather in tho ordinary
clothing of tho every day- tramp. No
beautiful colors will bedeck the class
jnen when they lino up on tho battlo
field for tho annual test of Btrongth.
Evory man, however, who ontors tho
fray will start out with a full suit of
clothing. JuBt how much of it ho will
still wear when tho battlo Is over, no
one is at this time able to determine.
Battle of the Cow Bells,
Tho Olympics will not bo any silk
glovo affair. Tho battlo of the cow
bells, which will take tho placo of tho
"free-for-all" fight 'of last season, will
last for twenty mlnuteB. Elovon cow
bolls will be placed on tho ground an
equal distance frpm the membors of
each class, and at the shot of tho pis
tol the two lines of howling enthusi
asts will rush frantically for tho bells.
Tho battlo will laBt for twenty min
utes. At tho ond of that given time
the bells will be counted and each boll
will count five points for, tho class
which possesses It. Last year only
ono class ..could score in tho battlo
royal, but this season thepolnts will
be distributed In a more fair manner.
s Class' Rallies.
r
ClasB rallies will bo held on Thurs
day to perfect the organization for tho
fray, President Seats of tho sopho
mores haB announced a class meeting
and rally for Thursday morning, and
the freshman leader will follow this
examplo today and Thursday. Chair
man E. H. Hahno of the Olympics
"committee is urging big rallies for
Thursday. He is anxious that tho best
class shall win the contest, and knows
that unlesB the entiro class can be
pulled into the line the results will not
tell tho tale truthfully, Both classes
pro enthusiastically waiting for Satur
day. ,

That the University of Nebraska lias
experienced a remarkable growth in
tho numbor of registrations' fs a, fact
diBcloBcd by tho flguro representing
tho total registrations, recently an
nounced by thoreglBtrar.
Up to dato, tho total numbor of en
rollmonts listed Is 2,440. During
1009-16, howovor, tho total registra
tions for tho year wero 2,212. These
flguros show an Increaso of 228 stu
dents for this year up until October
22, as compared with thd tbtaj num
borK roglstored last year,' Taking tho
registrations of a year ago to date,
tho present record shows a gain of 280
students.
Minimum Raised.
Ono of tho'moBt significant features
of this year's enrollment to bo taken
Into account is that tho largo gain
Was mado in tho faco of the fact that
tho minimum cntrnnco requirements
woro raised from 22 to 24 high school
credits. Also tho fact that outsldo of
spoclal students, all studonts must'1
'present 30 instead of 28 credits to bo
fully admitted to tho university as
. regular, must bo considered.
It is also Interesting to note that
tho total of 2,440 'includes .campus"
students onlyr It Is a'provalont mis-,
tako for students and outsiders to
credit tho announced total registra
tions as including stato farm students,
Omaha "medics," tho school of music,
and tho summer session. Such Is not
tho case. Tho( students in these
schools havo not, as yet, been counted.
It Is thought, howoyor, that when .the
registrations of these schools are add
ed, the number will" groatl swell rthe
grand total of all University of Ne
braska students, a record established
last year. -

trations, tho college of law shows the
most marked advance. Tho stride In
this college was mado notwithstand
ing tho fact that beginning with 1911
12 the regular' law course will require
four years for completion, the addi
tional year to be devoted either to the'
cojlcgo of arts and sciences or law.'
To Hold Its Own.
The college of agriculture is expect
od to hold its own this year with the
rest of tho colleges. It may be remem
bered that tho agricultural department
suffered a loss of. 59 registrations last
year, which fact the ofllclals later at
tributed tos the excessive amount of
bad weather experienced by this part.
of tho country during the early part' of
tho year. s
MUcn interest is Demg manifested
- l Dy tlie students regarding the outcome
of the total registrations for the year,
IlllnoiSf Kansas' and all ot the other
neighboring states are making propor
tionately large Increases. Nebraska,
to maintain her present rank among
stato universities, must show a cor
responding high record.
