Playing one of the greatest fight
ing games ever put up by a Nebraska
team and exhibiting as clever an
offensive as has ever been seen on
Nebraska field, the 1917 Cornhuskers
were forced to bow to the great
Syracuse team Thanksgiving Day by
the score of 9 to 10. In yardage
gained, first downs made, fight and
real football, the Cornhuskers had
the advantage of their eastern op
ponents. It was a case of weight
and experience against speed and
fight, and the latter made the best
showing.
The great exhibition put on by the
Cornhuskers during the fourth period
when they carried the ball eighty-
five yards without losing possession
of it, to a touchdown, was a feat
probably unequaled, in the history of
Nebraska football. The stonewall
defense of the easterners had been
shown early in the game and espe
cially was it in evidence during the
third Quarter when the Cornhuskers
were unable to make any impression
on it.
Big Drive in Fourth Quarter
At the beginning of the fourth
quarter the Nebraskans abandoned
all attempts at bucking the line after
three successful tries had gotten the
ball from their own goal line to the
10-vard mark. Here an exchange of
punts was made and the big drive
was started from the 15- yard line.
The weighty middle part of the
easterner's line was utterly unable
to meet the surprise attack of end
runs and forward passes that were
going around them , and over their
heads. With Dobson tossing the
ball and Hubka receiving It and
MeMahon varying the attack with an
occasional end run the rush was not
stoDDed until the goal was crossed.
Then, after playing the greatest game
of his career and a defensive game
that will rank with any ever played
by a Nebraskan, Captain Shaw put
too much weight on the wrong side
of the ball when he made the kick
for goal and the pigskin sailed wide
of the bars.
The entire Nebraska team de
serves credit for the game that they
played. Even the substitutes which
were sent into the fray toward the
end of the struggle did more than
could have naturally been expected
them. It was a sight seldom seen
on any football field when substitute
after substitute went into the line
up in the midst of th-3 drive which
if successfully completed would place
the Cornhuskers in a position to tie
the score. Not a man, however,
who went into the game failed to
fill the place he was sent in to play.
Captain Shaw and Paul Dobson at
tracted the most attention for the
games they put up while Rhodes and
Kellogg at the ends and Hubka were
nearly as much in the lime light as
the others. Wilder, Kositzky, Day,
Cook, MeMahon, Schellenberg and
DuTeau all come in for more than
an ordinary amount of praise.
The strength of the easterners
can not be overlooked at any time.
Their weighty line and speedy, vet
eran backfield made up one of the
best visiting teams that has been
seen on Nebraska field.
MAJOR TELLS OBSTACLES
MET BY YOUNG OFFICERS
Stage fright, inability tq give or
ders, and lack of discipline, result
ing from their home and school
training, are the stumbling blocks
in the way of the young men from
college and civil life who are trying
to secure officers' commissions in
the new army.
This is the opinion of Major A. It.
Kerwin, commandant of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin military depart
ment, who, after many years in the
regular army, is training R. O. T. C.
men at the university.
"They ct-nnot talk; they are afraid
of their voices; they feel 'green'
and get stage fright when they stand
before a company of men and at
tempt to give orders," the major de
clared. "They lack what I would
call 'military initiative' and the
knack of handling men.
"Young Americans are individual,
unrestrained, unusued to obedience.
They are in general much less
trained to discipline than the men
who enter European armies.
"If a young man wishes to prepare
himself for a commission, there are
two things that he can do. He can
practice being drilled and drilling

THE languorous charm of the
Hawaiian native instruments so
moving in appeal, so observably
in vogue is strikingly characteristic
of the Ukulele. Its tone possesses that
curiously beautiful timbre, that exotic
charm of tonal quality which has
made these instruments so sensation
ally popular.
The Ukulele has a pleasing grace of
form. The finer models are made
of genuine Hawaiian Koa wood. It
is much in request today among the
smarter college and other musical
organizations.
It is easy to learn. Its price includes an
Instruction Book.
Hawaiian Steel Guitar
Every chord struck upon this typically rep
resentative Hawaiian instrument is marked
by a weird, plaintive harmony and strangely
beautiful qualities of tone. It brings, to any
music, qualities full of vivid color and va
ried charm.
