s Grid Team Has Been Denied Good Weather in Every Game This Yea Old Man Weather or J. Tluvius, or the Four Winds, or somebody has de nied the Husker football team a real ly good field to play on this season. In seven rmes the weather has not httn what could .be called Rood for football, and the gridsters have suf fered from the abnormal atmospheric conditions. In the first game of the season, xrith Illinois, there was a soft field for the Huskers and the Illini. Rain during the night made the ground .lick and the playv.ig difficult Nebraska went to Missouri me next vook nd there they found the same kind of IW'bly lit" Oe muddier. It had rained there, too, shortly in advance of the grid sters. Xehraska played at home the next reck, hut still the jinx followed. The r5hinp1on fame, however, was play ed under the best conditions of the Nebrasha-Notre Dame Game Mid-West Classic (Continued from Page One.) braska was on the short side, 13-7. The iast half was a continual striivf: of forward passes, and these aerial flips cave Nebraska two touch downs before Notre Dame could score. The Huskers tied the count at 1S-I1, and went further to make it 20-1 S. Put the Irish could not be outdone, asd they passed their way to another touchdown. They needed only one point to tie the score, and a drop kick or a place-kick would do it A Xotre Dame substitute, said to be a never-failing kicker, was sent in, ard, like Casey at the bat, he missed. The score stood at 20-19 in favor of Nebraska, and marked one of the greatest games between the two teams. HoUrs Defeated ib 1916 In 1916 Nebraska was set back on its haunches with a defeat by Xotre , Dame to the tune of 20-0. Berg-1 man, the Irishman who played inct Kphraska in 1915. was there. ., v,. r,lT, fr lr- A long pass and a Nebraska fumble accounted for two more touchdowns. It is interesting to note that Charlie Eachman, now coach at Kansas Ag- gies, was a member of that Xotre Dame team f 1916. At-rraMLa look tnc ipaa again wutrn its defeated Xotre Dame, 7-0 in 1917. There were Cook, Dasty Rhodes, SchdlcTiberg and Hugo Otoupalik in the Busier lineup. (Otoupalik is now director of Athletics at Iowa State.) And they drove across the Irish goal line for a touchdown which won the game. Rockne Becomes Coack its 1918 The year 1918 marked the first year that Knute Rockne coached at Xotre Dame and he stacked his team against the Huskers in a game which resulted in a scoreless tie. Wade Murm, former heavyweight wrestling champion was one of the Huskers that year. Xebraskans had their hopes temporarily shattered when Captain Eahan of Xotre Dame carried the ball across the line, but the play was call ed back on account of a penalty. Xotre Dame pulled a surprise in the opening moments of the 1919 game and raced down the field for a touchdown from the Idcl-off. It was a lateral pass from Gipp to Bergman, and the letter ran ninety yards for the first score. Another Notre Dame touchdown came in the third quarter after Xt-brasta had scored in the sec ond period. The Buskers added three points with a field goal in the last frame. 14 to $ It was Notre Dame's game RocIom Woa 1920 Rockne and his strong team came n,y rules ue derived, back in 1&20 and won by the score played ia Colonial Days f 1 C to 7.

Out there, on a slick field with an ice- coated ball, both teams battled in a freak game, full of fumbles. A week ago last Saturday the team journeyed to Manhattan, and all that morning of the day of the game a rain fell which soaked the field thor oughly. From all this, it is evident that the Huskers will appreciate pood weather in the game today. Stop "Four Horumo" Nebraska repeated in 1923 to the tune of 14 to 7, with these same "Four Horsemen" in the game for the Irish. Dave Xoble was the big gun for Nebraska, as he scored both of Nebraska's touchdowns. Choppy Rhodes, who is finishing his career today, picked up a Xotre Dame fum- . ,n fm n nn rardsi towards the goal line. He lost the ball, however, when he was run down and tackled by Crowe, who is this year's Notre Dame captain. Everyone remembers the outcome of the game in 1924. The Notre Dame team, practically the same which had played in the preceding two years, had become famous, and at the same time, proficient They ran through Nebraska for a victory. The score was 54 to 7, the largest ever run up against Nebraska during the grid skirmishes between the two schools. Football Has Held C.....

Inter-croup contests were held at Rugby, where a highly organised and distinctive type of the gme developed. Gradually, carry- ing was added to kicking as a basic . f eatnre of the Rugby game. By the year 1 ?60, scores of schools had "imitated Eugby in developing : both carrying and kicking games. In, 1863, the teams in London and ficin itv playing exclusive kicking game met and organized the "London Foot ball Association," and from that day to this, games of the kicking type are 1 called "Association Football" or Soc- 'cr, which is a humorous derivative of the word Association.

FIGHTING HUSKERS AT SEASON'S CLOSE (Continued from Page Six) "Jug" Brown had taken the ball over for a touchdown in the first few min utes of play. The loss of Stephens, heady quarterback of the Cornhus kers the night before the game, was a severe blow but it is doubtful if his presence could have changed the fi nal result. Missouri's first score game when they completed a pass over the goal line about the middle of the third quarter, when their weight was beginning to tell in the fierce battle. The Cornhuskers lost several chances to score in the last; behind the Cornhusker goal, giving I the Tigers a 9 to 6 victory. Tie Washington Huskies The next week the Cornhuskers opened the home season against the University of Washington from Se attle. They had held a leading po sition on the Pacific coast in recent years and their heavy team promised a mighty struggle. The game was fiercely contested as any that have been rlayed here and Nebraska fans were more than satisfied with a tie score of 6 to 6. This game put Ne braska's 1925 team as one of the best in the country, for Washington has since cleaned up on everything on the Pacific coast, giving the Uni- verity of California their first de- feat in sis j The following week Nebraska cele-1 r.s.J tj : . ... . 3 I -i .atvu uiuuminniig 10 uae tune ox a . 14 to 0 victory over the scrappy Uni-j l versity of Kansas eleven.

J DAILY NEBRASKAN through for pain after pain, but the Kansans displayed a fiphtinp de fense which held the score down. Driving straight down the field from the opening kick-off, the Corn huskers put over a touchdown right at the start in their game against the Oklahoma team tho succeeding week and added another Inter in the game for a 12 to 0 victory. Fumbles again kept Nebraska from scoring oftener but tho impregnability of the defense marked the Nebraskans as a team worth reckoning. Snowstorm at Drake A driving snowstorm which made real football impossible met the Hus kers at Des Moines where they tan gled with Drake a week later. The Huskers made substantial gains but lacked the punch to put it over for a score while Drake recovered a fum ble for a touchdown and then added a safety and another touchdown to put the pame on ice. Kansas Aggies and Nebraska went into their game with equal records and for once the dope was right, for two more evenly matched teams are seldom found. For four quarters the two teams battled to a scoreless tie but Nebraska retained their record of never having been defeated by the K aggies. Faces Notre Dam Clash Nebraska goes into the eventful clash with Notre Dame today with a record of three victories, two ties, and two defeats, against some of the strongest teams in the country. the Pacific coast with ease.
