Unable to Advance Ball for Any Great Distance
Final Event a General Free-for-AII.
The Freshmen won a close ami oxi-it injr victory over the Sopho
mores Saturday in their annual Olympic battle ly the score of -40
to ;.". The pole rush, which is poncrally the leeilinir factor, was
not eonnteil because the first year men, in their wild endeavor to tear
down the Sophomore's colors, broke the pole and pushed it to the
jrronnd. The 1-Yeshmen had only three minutes time left when the
aeeident occurred.
In the individual events the Sophomores had the cd-re over the
Freshmen by the score of 2. to 1", but the Freshmen rallied in the
free-for-all events and by force of numbers drove the Sophomores
from the field.
The first event of the Olympics was the wrestling in the lo
pound class. Elbert Neuman, a first year man took this, winning
five points for his class. The Sophomores took the three other
classes of the wrestling. Spickler, a Sophomore, won the 175 pound
class match over Eaton, a Freshman.
Thomas, second year, threw Long, a
Freshman, making a total of ten
points for the Sophs .and five for the
rroshmen. The heavyweight match
was won by Byers, a Sophomore, wtra
downed Reed.
Boxing Matches Divided.
The two classes split evenly on the
boxing events. Each class won two
bouts. In the 135 pound division
Black, a Sophomore, won from Hol
lingsworth. The 150 pound class
Quigley, a Sophomore, won from
Curran after knocking him down sev
eral times. Drake, a first-year man.
featured the boxing in the 175 pound
class with a knockout. Thompson, a
Freshman, won a decision from
Layton.
The relay race was a case of a lot
of had luck for the first year stu
dents. The second man missed the
wand on his turn and gave a twenty
yard lead to the Sophs. The lead was i
partially cut down before the end
of the race but it was too great to
give the Freshmen any hope.
The tug-o-war and push bull went
to the Freshmen totaling them with
40 of the possible 75 points. The
second-year men started to walk
away with the Freshmen in the 1ug-o-war
but after two minutes the
"wearers of ihe green" were back at

Day
Alumni of Nebraska University from
all parts of the state and many of
them from nearby states thronged
Ellen Smith Hall Saturday for the
Homecoming "get-togethers" planned
for them by the Lincoln University
of Nebraska, Alumni Club. Many
prominent Lincoln women took an
active part preparing lor the out-state
"grads" and former students. Nearly
three hundred guests attended the
luncheon Saturday noon.
Although ihe party in the evening j
was not quite so hilarious as though
the Comhuskers had won from Notre
Dame, in the afternoon, local alumni
were present in large numbers. Many
faouliy members attended. Stories of
University h.':ppenins-s of oiher days
made the evening's entertainment
more interesting.
Program of Dancing
The nigs in the larger drawing
rum or the Hall were removed and
the last pail of the evening war. spent
in dancing. The University orchestra
furnished ihe music. Punch was
-e.v'd in ihe dining room by mem
bers of ihe class of 1920. Miss
P.::r.he flatten, chairman for the
evening, was assisted by a reception
or urn-iit r composed of Mr. and Mrs.
!i'l Upson, Mr. J.nd Mrs. R. A. Bick
ford, Mr. and Mrs. Ellery Davis, Mr.
i.nd Mrs. A. L. Haecker, Miss Sara
Muir, and Miss Marjorie SeUeok.
The older alumni were particularly
interested in seeing the portrait of
Miss Ellen Smith, the c-arly registrar
in whose honor the hall is named.
The portrait was paimed by Miss
Sarah Hayden and has hung in recent
years in the registrar's office in the
administration building. -It was re
moved to the Ellen Smith Hall a few
days ago. A recent addition to the
t;l'ts, a large tablet with the he;,d of
Lincoln, and his Gettysburg address,
presented bv Mabel Tuttle Tovne.

Luehring Explains
Of The
The points brought out in Director
I. uhvlng's address before University
Freshmen Thursday, October 14, Illus
trate the new principles upon which
the Department of Fhysieal Education
will be founded. Physical education,
a much wider field than that known
as college athletics, has become one
of the most Important divisions of the
curriculum in the largest institutions
in America during the past two years,
according to the speaker.
Mr. Luehring contends that every
man should have some experience in
one of the typically fighting games
such as football, basketball, water
polo, boxing and wrestling. However,
he believes that physical education
extends beyond mere games and con
tests, and that it includes all pro
visions for the betterment of the
physical condition of the individual.
OMAHA DELEGATION AT
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE
Special Trainload of Visitors Journey
for Notre Dame Game and
Homecoming Program.
The South Omaha Lixestock Ex
change and the Ak-Sar-Ren, repre
sented by two hundred fifty men and
women, made a tour of the College of
Agriculture Saturday before the foot
ball game. The visitors arrived in
Lincoln by special train about 9:30
a. m., and were taken by trucks and
automobiles directly to the State
Farm. They were accompanied by
the Shriner's band.
The forenoon was spent viewing the
College of Agriculture stock being
prepared for the international live
stock exhibition and visiting the new
animal pathology and engineering
plants. Many of the visitors also at
tended the University Olympics.
which were staged on the college ath
letic field Saturday morning.
In the Omaha delegation were E.

Gamble, Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Wood.
Mr. and Mrs. Gould Pietz, J. Dean
Ringer, Willard Hosford. and Mr. ana
M: s. Arthur Guiou.
Delegation Unusually Large.
The Omaha delegation was much
larger than had been anticipated by
the University authorities pnd the
sealing capacity of Home Economics
Hall was taxed at dinner. In imro-
dueing speakers following the dinner
Dean Burnett said the occasion indi
ca:ed to some extent the need for
expansion at the cctlloge. He spokr
briefly of some of the plans for adding
Inful and equipment to the College of
Agriculture.
On the subject of expansion to meet
ihe growing needs of the college.
Tv -an Rutk-u mentioned plans for r.
ne-v animal. bin-bandry farm and pos
sibly a farm for the dairy df partmen'.
He filso said that provision may L
rrade soon for paying salaries tha1
will at least equal the pay of orran-i7e-l
labor. Two-thirds of the faculty
are now working for less money ia-i
orranirod labor is gettins. he said.
Regents Judson of Omaha and Hall
of Lincoln, in brief talks, arm-oved
Dean Burnett's remarks concerning
ihe reed of further expansion for ihf
Colloee of Acriculture. Regent Hall
said he considered the University the
greatest asset the state has. It is the
dream of the board of regents, he
sp.M, to see this the greatest institu
tion in the west.
Cornell Also Visits Farm.
A delegation from Cornell Univer
sity. New York, was at the farm
Saturday looking over the buildings
and Dean Burnett introduced C. L.
Brockway, architect for the New York
College of Agriculture. New York is
running a $700. POO dairy building in
the reorganization of its College of
Agriculture, and Nebraska is one of
the states which the building com
mission visited on a tour of the coun
try before the building program is
begun. Mr. Brockway emphasized
that the people of Nebraska may be
like those of New York, slow about
appreciating the great industry of the
state, namely, agriculture. New York
state ranks first in dairying, first in

New Aims
Athletic Department
The aims of the Physical Education
Department at Nebraska, said Direc
tor Luehring, are as follows:
1. The maintenance and improve
ment of health during school days and
in later life.
2. The development of physical
efficiency to Its fullest exlenl.
3. Keactional exercise, for the sake
of mental efficenty in the classroom
4. Social and ethical values of
games and contests in the develop
ment of honor, courage, stamina and
true sportsmanship.
The speaker contended that the
teachings of the world war have made
apparent the necessity for more vigor
ous physical exercise and the first
importance of developing, especially
in the colleges and universities, an
up-standing and vigorous manhood.
BURGLARS TAKE SUM
IN ROUSE RUBBERY
Unidentified Night Marauders Ran
sack Dressers, Trunks and Pockets
Saturday From Phi Psi Fraternity.
The first daring fraternity house
robbery occurred Saturday night
when more than $150 in cash was
stolen from dresser drawers, trunks
and trousers' pockets in the Fhi
Kappa Psi house, 1548 S streeL
The marauders were evidently
familiar with the premises because
they seemed to know eactly where to
go. A thorough investigation of the
burglary was made by city detectives
and the police Sunday morning, but
no clue has been found which will
lead to the arrest of the house
breakers. No Watches Taken,
It was evident after the search of
the house Sunday morning that the
thieves did not care to bother them
selves with watches, for not a single
time-piece had been disturbed. As
much as $60 was taken from a single
room. The rooms on the third floor
were not ransacked.
As "most of the members of the fra
ternity sleep on a sleeping porch at
the east side of the bouse, no dis
turbance was heard during ihe night.
A party had been given earlier in the J
evening, br.t the doors had been
bolted after the dance. It is thought
that the burglars gained admittance
through windows.
A iV.crough investigation is beinc
conducted in an effort to slop this
practice, very prevalent in Lincoln
during ihe past few years, oi robbin?
fraternity and sorority houses.

and ambition necessary for football ,
players. Beginning next week prae- j
tice will be held every night between j
5 and 6 o'clock. Practice on Satur
day will be from 2 to 12 in the morn
ing. If enough of the engineers take

the classic Lincoln jrridiron.
seconds of the first half it seemed
faster, shiftier and more resourceful
visitors from Indiana. But the last
half, with a few exceptions proceed
ing somewhat listlessly under the
summery skies, belonged entirely to
Coach Rockne of the enemy, and the
final result was scarcely in doubt.
Notre Dame's superior backfield
was the main cause of the defeat.
The offense put up by the Rockne
men completely demoralized the
Huskers. Nebraskans are taking con
solation from the fact they were able
to score against such a formidable
foe.
Notre Dame Scores First
The first quarter of the game con
sisted mostly of a runting duel be
tween Gipp and Weller. Neither
team was able to make any headway
by line rlunges or end runs. Notre
Dame nulled together and started a
march for the Husker goal. Gipp got
away for a thirty-five yard sprint but
was downed on the Husker thirteen
yard line by Newman. Notre Dame
advanced the ball to the one yard
line where Nebraska held and re
covered the ball on downs. Weiler
attempted to rum from b(hin.i the
goal line but ihe kick was Mocked
and Weller recovered the ball back
of the goal line, resuming in a safny
for Notre Dame.
