Price 5 Cent VICTORY IN SIGHT VAR8ITY WORK IN BELLEVUE GAMEGIVE8 HOPES OF VICTORY. mmm mn defeat awes Halligan ahd Mdstin Particular Stars Frank ahd Purdy Back In Old Form Secret Practice This Week Nebraska started out like a Valley championship team last Saturday when they defeated Bellevue by the score of 61 to 0. The Presbyterians were com pletely outclassed, but fought a plucky game all the time. The CornhiiBker line showed a great improvement and the backfleld were away several times for long runs. Notr ing but Btraight football was used, and only five forward passes were tried, and only one of these was completed. Halligan was the shining light when It came to getting scores. He made four touchdowns, Purdy two, Harmon one, Frank one and Howard made one after a seventy-yard run from the kick off. Halligan 1b a star when it comes to line plunges He la heavy, speedy, and runs low and wide; with a little more experience will be the fastest fullback In the valley. Mastln put up a terrible defense at right end, and appears to be developing into an all Missouri Valley man. Captain Frank played his old-style game with his shifty and squirming runs around the endB. Stiehm is getting his men in trim for the Minnesota game, and hopes to duplicate the South Dakota trick. Min nesota showed up very poorly Saturday in the game with Ames, defeating the Iowa Aggies by but 6 points, with none of the spectacular team work which in former years has been exhibited by Coach Williams' machine Pickering was also conspicuously absent, to gether with his long end runs and quick work at catching punts Only three veterans appeared In the game and these appeared to have lost their last year's form Minnesota's weight on the line is less than has been known for the past six years. Her backfleld is inexperienced and slow, as was seen in the South Dakota game two weeks ago. Prospects look better for a Corn husker victory October 18 than has been the case for several years. This week's practice will probably be secret the greater portion of the time, ending up the week with the game Saturday with the Kansas Ag gies. The Manhattan team is practi cally the same as last year, and no doubt will furnish the fans a chance to see a good game I,aBU year the Cornhusker bested them badly, but dope from Manhattan gives them one of the strongest teams in the south valley this year.

No action and an adjournment until Wednesday at 5 o'clock was the result of a mooting of tho committee on stu dent organizations and Boclal func tions, held yesterday afternoon in the office of Miss Ensign, advisor to women. The moetlng was called to consider the status of Nebraska fraternities i anent their pledging freshmen. A I blanket Injunction wafl Issued last Sat urday by tne committee against an rra ternltlos prohibiting them from pledg ing until further notice. Tho committee took this action In order to gain an opportunity to look Into Borne alleged violations of tho University social rogulatlonB, with spe cial reference to the prohibition of for mal entertainments after 8 o'clock on week nights. Representatives from every frater nity waited on the committee and were disappointed to lenrn that a settle ment of the Ibbuc had been postponed forty-eight hours. The committee has Bought delay In the effort to secure more evidence. Prof George R. Chatham, chairman of the committee, said In substance to a group of fraternity men, that the com mittee was confident that tho Univer sity regulations had been violated In spirit, if not in letter, and that an effort would be made to obtain evi dence of the same He suggested to the men that It wnn their duty to help the committee, and Intimated that if they did not co-operate the investiga tion might continue all semester. It seems that niOBt of the fraternities en tertained freshmen in the chapter houses after 8 o'clock, and that In general late hourB were kept during the entire week. It was felt by the committee that the prevalence of enter tainment in the chapter houses consti tuted a tacit violation of the rules.
