VARSITY MEETS
YEARLING TEAM
Gets Taste of Illinois Pluys;
Husker Squad Shows up
in Better Shape.
MIELENZ GOES OUT
WITH HURT ANKLE
The terrible freshmen again invad
ed the Varsity football camp Tues
day evening to give the Cornhuskers
a sample of Illinois plays as observed
by Assistant Coach Frank at the Ill
inois freshman-Varsity game.
The freshman combination, which
proved so disastrous to the Varsity
last Saturday, failed to function so
well Tuesday evening; the Varsity
had to redeem its prestige.
A jinx seems to be pursuing the
Varsity squad which takes its toll in
queer ways. Mielenz, halfback, who
was playing halfback in place of
Locke, out of the game with a bad
ankle, was out himself Tuesday eve
ning with an injury identical with
Locke's.
Kimn Look Good.
Kamm was still at quarterback,
and it looks very much as though the
Colorado boy would be calling signals
when the Illinois game starts. Blood
good and Bronson, quarterbacks,
were kicking and passing the ball.
Hecht, a strong defensive man,
was at left halfback, in place of
Locke and Mielenz. Rhodes was tak
ing fullback on offence with My
ers at end. On defense the two men
changed places.

J. Weir, brother of Captain Ed
Weir, was playing right guard in
place of Ogden. Ogden was out
doing some roadwork in an effort to
lose some weight. Robertson was
back at end after a day's vacation,
when R, Mandery filled his place.
Rase, tackle, was in the lineup in
place of "Red" Molzen. Molzen had
a little trouble with one eye, but was
soon back in the lineup.
The practice was stiff, for there is
little time left to whip the team into
shape where it can successfully meet
the plunges of Grange, Britton and
Leonard.
The rest of the week will be busy
also, up until Friday, when a layoff
will probably be granted.
Harold "Red" Grange all-American
halfback, will be a marked man when
the Illini play the Cornhuskers on
Stadium field Saturday.
Grange's rise has been meteoric.
Last year, when a sophomore, he
broke into the limelight in the Ne
braska game the first of the season.
His work spelled defeat for the Corn
huskers.
After his remarkable showing in
the Nebraska game, Grange was a
marked man for the rest of the sea
son. In spite of this he managed to
get away for long runs and to dis
tinguish himself by his all-around
play in every game.
Grange is a great open-field runner
and he hits the line like a cannon
ball. Illinois coaches have been try
ing to make a triple-threat man of
him, but he has never shown anything
startling in the line of kicking and
passing. On the receiving end of
passes his work has been sensational.
This is Grange's second year of
Varsity competition. Having made
the all-American last year he is ex
pected to repeat.
Football experts expect Grange to
become one of the most talked-of men
in American college football. Few
men in the past few years have had as
swift a rise to fame and little else
than a serious injury can keep him
from taking his place among the great
players of football history.
Last year he was kept out of sev
eral games of lesser importance be
cause of the fact that the coaches
wished to take no chances on losing
his services for big games. He will
undoubtedly appear in the Stadium
field to aid the Illini in the Nebraska
game 0ne of the greatest intersex
tional contests scheduled.

TRACES UNIVERSITY HISTORY
FOR ARTS COLLEGE FRESHMEN
(Continued From Page One.)
U Hall I. Firt Building.
University Hall was the first build
ing to be erected. The material for
the foundation was hauled from
Plattsmouth. The stone put in the
foundation was not adequate ard
soon began to crumble. The whole
building had to be bolstered uo.
There was some talk of moving the
University at that time but Lincoln
capital was secured and a large fund
raised to repair the structure. This
first structure was heate dwith base-
burners and one janitor did all the
work.
The next building to be erected was
the State Laboratory, now known as
the Pharmacy Building. It was erect-
ed at a cost of $25,000. Nebraska
Hall followed, and soon began to
crumble as much as the first building
had. It has been recently repaired.
Armory I Fourth.
Urant Memorial Hall, now the
Armory, was then built, and was fol
lowed by the north wing of the Li
brary, which was the first permanent
structure on the campus. Others on
the original campus were the Mechan
ic Arts Building, Museum, Physic
Building, Administration Building,
Mechanical Engineering Building,
and the Law Building.
At this time the original four
blocks of land granted by the legis
lature became rather crowded and so
$100,000 was raised with which thp
present athletic field was purchased.
The campus was expanded from elev
en to fifty-three acres, and expert
architects were hired to plan several
more uniform buildings. These build
ings are now on the campus and it is
expected some day to add several
monumental ones. "To the genero
sity of future legislatures we leave
the building of these structures," said
the Chancellor.
Af College I Part.
From the very start of the school,
the College of Agriculture and the
University proper have been one or
ganization. The College of Arts and
Sciences was first organized, and was
soon followed by Teachers College
and others. The Pharmacy and Busi
ness Adminirtration Colleges are the
newest on the campus. The College
of Medicine was placed in Omaha be
cause of an affiliation with an organi
zation there.
Chancellor Avery likened the Uni
versity to the federal government.
Each student is a citizen and his col
lege is a state. The deans are the
governors and the Chancellor is the
president.
Student affairs were not so numer
ous !n the early days aa they nr now.
In the four games played between
the Scarlet and Cream and Illinois,
the Cornhuskers have been victorious
three times. Last year was the first
time Nebraska bowed before the Or
ange and Blue. Nebraska will have
a chance for revenge Saturday when
the Illinois cohorts, headed by Cap
tain Rokusek of Omaha, and the
famous "Red" Grange, invade the
Husker camp.
The defeat of last fall, however, is
nothing to be ashamed of, for Illinois

The freshmen were again put
through a short workout in passing,
charging and other fundamentals,
with the exception of the first-string i
men who were taught several Illinois
plays brought back by Coach Own
Frank who scouted the Illinois fresh

Literary societies were formed and
are still flourishing, but their pur
pose is somewhat changed. Fraterni
ties were not a success at first, but
they have grown, until there are now
large numbers of them.
The first student publications were
small weeklies, and in 1890, the num
ber was so large that it was impos
siple to watch their progress. They
were great rivals but finally consoli

braskan. The annual started op

is admitted to have had at that time
one of the strongest teams in the
country. It was undefeated all sea
son and tied with Michigan for the
Big Ten Conference honors.
Neither does the score of 24 to 7
give a true picture of the game, as
it was much more closely contested
than the figures indicate.
Early in the game Illinois worked
the ball down into Nebraska's terri
tory, and Britton kicked a perfect
goal. Late in the second quarter
Grange' crashed over for the first
touchdown for the Orange and Blue.
The half ended with the score 10 to
0 in favor of Illinois.
The Huskers opened the second
half with a rush. After a short ex
change of punts, Captain Verne Lew
ellen broke loose and scampered
through a broken Illinois defense for
a fifty-yard gain. From the seven
yard line, Dave Noble shook off the
detaining hands of three or four
tacklers and downed the ball behind
the line for a touchdown. Herb De
witz kicked goal.
With the count at 10 to 7, the
game did not look at all one-sided
and Illinois had to fight for her
game. About the middle of the last
quarter Lewellen punted, and
Grange, who was playing safety.
stumbled over a horse-shoe and ran
the kick back to a touchdown. A few
moments later, Grange, still under
the influence of the horse-shoe,
caught a pass and ran half the length
of the field for the last score of the
game.
Nebraska then received the kickoff
and worked the ball down the field
in a series of short rushes but the
time was too short to put the ball
across.
That Nebraska was not alone i.i
falling before the Zuppke eleven will
be seen by a glance at the Orange
and Blue record for the season. The
scores are as follows:
Illinois 24; Nebraska 7.
Illinois 21; Butler, 7.
Illinois, 0; Iowa, 6.
Illinois, 29; Northwestern, 0.
Illinois, 7; Chicago, 0.
Illinois, 10; Wisconsin, 0.
Illinois, 28; Miss. Aggies, 0.
Illinois, 9; Ohio State, 0.
(Special to The Nebraskan.)
Urbena, 111., Sept. SO. With but
two practices left before the journey
to Lincoln for the opener with Ne
braska, the Illini have developed an
epidemic of colds and Coach Robert
Zuppke has been compelled to lighten
up the practice sessions.
Almost the same team which faced
the Cornhuskers last year will trot
on the field next Saturday. With the
exception of Bernie Shively, at guard,
and either Umnus or Roberts, at cen
ter, the championship team of a year
ago is intact.
Shiver to Be Guard.
Shivey, 210-pound guar-' "-m last
year's freshman team will likely
fill Captain Jim McMu.w.i j ahoes
while Umnus or Roberts, both subs
last year, will step into the position
left vacant by the graduation of Viv
Greene.
Captain Rokusek will be at his old
job at left end and Kassel, whose
specialty is snaring passes, will proba-;
bly be at the other. Chuck Brown and
Dick Hall, both vets, seem to have the
call on the tackle positions and Roy
Miller, will again fill a guard position.
Red Grange, Nebraska poison last
year, looks as good as ever in prac
tice and the rest of last years back
field are again in uniform Harry
Hall, quarterback; Britton, fullback;
and Mcllwain, line-plunging half
back. May Shelve Back.
It is possible, however, that part of
the title-winning back-field will watch
the game from the sideline. Zup has
been using Ray Gallivan, freshman
last year, at quarterback on the first
team, with Benny Leonard and Burt
Dancey also from last year's yearling
squad getting their chance in the Var
sity runs.
Leonard is a 10-flat man in the
hundred and hits the line according
ly; Dancey is a speed-boy who looks
well in a broken field.
Coach Zuppke has been rushing the
Varsity all season in an attempt to
get it ready for the early opening
date. With but three days condition
ing work he drove the men through
a stiff scrimmage and they have been
at it ever since until the epidemic of
sniffles caused a let-down.

Professor Swezey Offers Lecture
And Laboratory Astronomy Courses
H. R. Lewton, instructor in phar
macy, who underwent an operation
at the Lircoln Sanitarium some time
ago is reported to be getting along
very well. He expects to be back
to resume his work about October 15.
Dean R, A. Lyman, Prof. J. B. Burt,
and Mr. A. A. Soulek are teaching
Professor Lewton's classes.
Did you know that the Big Dipper
is not a separate constellation, but
forms the tail and back of the "Great
Bear" (Ursa Major)?
It is to learn such things as this
that Prof. G. D. Swezey has offered
two courses Jin astronomy, one a
three-hour course, the other a one
hour. The former is made up of two
hours of lectures, and a two-hour
laboratory on Wednesday nights, the
latter is a lecture course touching
only the salient points. It is the
aim of these courses, not to be ma
thematical but to give the student
who does not expect to be an astro
nomer a general idea of what the
universe is like. No textbook is used
but mimeographed instructions pre
pared by Professor Swezey are giv
en out.
The first semester's work covers
ten salient points in astronomy, such
as the constellations, the moon, the
earth as a planet and its motions,
and the use of the telescope. The sec
ond semester will be devoted to the
study of planets, stars, meteors and
comets. The lectures are illustrated
by lantern slides.
The laboratory period is for the
study of the sky, weather permitting.
If cloudy, a lecture, illustrated by
slides, is given. Besides the big tele
scope there are Instruments to mea
sure the positions of the heavenly
bodies to find the time by the stars.
Republican Club Will
