For the Ilawkeyes are not a(quainted with the style ot football plaved by the Nebrabkans and will be unable to stop the inlghtly Cornhusker offense.

Harry C. (Jellatly, the new manager, has been Instructed to take up the work at once. This announcement was made Tuesday after the appli (ants had been sifted down to two candidates. The final decision waa made between Gellatly and Kavan. There Is considerable honor as well as work attached with this position as the manager must assume some amount of the responsibility for a successful season. The Glee club Is assured of several short trips, and if present plans are perfected It Is probable that a trip will be taken to California. An offer hiiH been made by the Santa Fe It. It., to the eflect that If the Dice club turnlslies twelve entertainments, the c omp;in will take them out to Cali fornia and pay all expenses It is highly probable that this oiler twill be accepted. The object ol the It. It. company Is to give entertain ments lor the benefit of their working men in the various large c ities along their line. Of course at present these plans are onlv on paper and nothing definite has been determined upon. However, should this plan be carried out It would c rtainly be of gieat advertising benefit to the university. In case this trip is thrown out of consideration by many poslble objections, another trip is planned that is more likely to be carried out. This is a trip to Den ver over the II. P, and back over the M. P., filling various dates along the route. The home conceit which is usually held in the Temple will be held some time at the II i .st ol the year The Glee club will continue their usual practice and get in form for any pos sible trips. This organization usually turns out some good programs and if they Micieed in their plans they will surely make a "hit" wherever they go.
