GOPHERS CONFIDENT
BUT EXPECT STRUGGLE
MINNESOTA MEN AND COACHES
PAINTING FOR NEBRA8KA.
RECALL DAYS OF TWISTER BENDER
Rooting 8quad Already Working on
Features with Which to Greet
CornhU8kers.
That Minnesota Is imbued with re
spect for the Cornhusker football
team, but 1b nevertheless confident of
winning next Saturday, is the burden
of the first of our special correspond
ence from Mr. Lylo Roberts of tho
Gopher camp, which wo print bolow:
By Lyle Roberts.
Minnesota has never considered a
victory over tho Cornhusker'olovon as
a sure thing, and this year, as never
before, tho rooters are looking. for
ward to the Nebraska gamo with all
absorbing interest.
Two questions are uppermost in tho
minds of all. (1) What sort of a team
will Nebraska send up to Northrup
Field? (2) Will Coach Williams bring
tho Gophers to their old-tlmo fighting
trim?
Everyone realizes that tho Gophers
have a light before thorn next Satur
day. Recall Old Days.
Tho rooters of tho U. of M. remem
ber tho Cornhusker teams that have
mot tho Gophers in tho past. Still
mingled with tho air of determination,
there Is also an air of confldonco; for
Minnesota has faith In hor team.
Realizing tho importanco of the
coining struggle, Coach Williams and
Ills assistants aro ovory day putting
tho team through a gruolllng practice.
Tho toam did pot como up to tho ex
pected 'Standard In tho games with
Ames and Nortlv Dakota, but somo of
tho Varsity men who wore at that
time Ineligible, aro now In tho gamo
and tho prospects look much brighter.
Williams at Work.
Out of the material now at hand,
Dr. Williams Is working hard to bring
out a machine which will carry all
before It. Naturally' tho team feels
tho lack of McGovorn, tho former
quarterback, whoso whirlwind aggres
siveness was always tho dread jot his
opponents, but notwithstanding tho
loss of somo of Its best mon through
graduation, the team Is tho samo
fighting machine as it has always
been,
Capron, at McGovorn's old position,
isjono of tho most aggressive playors
on tho team. Captain Pickering, at
fullback, is a tower of strength. Ail
down tho lino are men of All-Western
calibre. '
Need Practice.
It cannot be denied, however, that
tho team needs more practice before
they are ready to meet tho Cornhusk
er eleven. There 'is some fumbling
and the playing Is at times a little
ragged.
'Practice tho toam needs, anuprac
tlco tho team is getting with a ven
geance; Tho practice has, for tho

We Indjcate those who appear at the window In St. A and give
false names in order to get a Dally Nebraskan. $
If you can't afford a dollar a semester, come to the office and we fi
will take pity on your penury. We would rather give them away than
have them stolen.
This Is pretty straight, but we mean It.
Furthermore the University authorities have promised to make an
example of anyone caught in the act.
Don't do It. It makes trouble for all of us. Be sure your name
Is on the list at Station A.
