The Daily Nebraskan VOL XIII. NO. 11 UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1913 Price, 5 Cents VI Ki'll tH SCRIMMAGE YESTERDAY JOY IN CAMP OVER RETURN OF ROSS, LEFT GUARD. WASHBURN'S STRENGTH MYSTERY First Game of Season Saturday Promises to Be Stiff. THOSE RED TAGS-HELP YOUR FEM-FRIENDS TODAY Thr Cornhuskers football stalwart put in a hard practice yesterday aft ernoon at the State Farm. With gratl fying results. The exercises ranged fro in a to izzard. from elementary loot ball to a twenty-minute scrimmage. wlTti tho freshmen. Amr-thr Munnyr shinning, scinlilating outcome was due to the tact that no more cripples were added to the overburdened hos pital list, and that that line of ours looks more and more like a winner. Clint Ross, Lineman, Back In Moleskins. Another cause of joy was the ap pearance of Clint Ross in his old stamping ground, left guard. Ross was a tower of strength in last year's mighty machine. His two hundred pounds will bolster up the line in great shape. Stiehm, the wonder worker, is put ting the squad through Its stlffest paces They aro on the jump from start to finish The W. W. played both Ik'ck and Tov.le at the executive job With Towle at quarter, Beck holds down left end. And with Beck in command, Howard moves from full back to left end, Coffee working at full. Varsity Scores Two Touchdowns. The varsity-freshman scrimmage was snappy and fast. The cornhusker team, while kicking a good deal of the time, found time to walk through the freshmen for two touchdowns. The line is gradually smoothing off the rough corners and at times was able to rip great holes in the fresh men defense. It is a joy to watch that back field plunge through the line and romp around the wings. Purely and Ruther ford make a great brace of ground gainers. Both Howard and Coffee are plajing a fine game at full back. As ai" also Beck and Towle at quarter. Washburn's Strength Unknown. With the Washburn game but three days off, little is known of the strength of the team from Topeka. The Congiegational lads have it on us as far a practice is concerned, for Washburn started a couple of weeks sooner than the University. The Cornhuskeis are not looking for a snap and probably would bo very much surprised if they did. Wash burn can be counted on to put up a stiff game. Washburn has an oc casional habit of besting Kansas and Missouri. The game promises to be well worth the seeing. The line up for the first game is problematical. Rutherford and Purdy are fixtures at the halves. Howard will probably start at full and Towle at quarter. Erwin at center, Shields and Halligan at tackles, Ross at left guard, Mastin and Beck at ends will undoubtedly fill the line up, leaving one guard to be accounted for. Thirty-five Cents Each Proceeds Take Care of Sick Co-eds. What is it? It's tag day. T'wont be long and you'll see. The tags are red and every young woman Is sup posed to have one.
