Biff Intersectional Contelt De
tired to Take the Place
Of Notre Dame
MOST SCHEDULES FULL
A country-Vndc effort is being
made by the University of Nebraska
athletic department to (get a big
intersectional game to ke the
place of the Notre Dame-Nebraska
contest that would have attracted so
much enthusiasm next year. Wires
have been sent out by Herbert Gish,
acting athletic director, to some of
the leading institutions of the coun
try in an a tempt to secure a game.
One of the nearby schools that the
athletic department! had hoped to
contract for a game was Minnesota.
The Gophers have a heavy schedule
an I could not arrange to have a game
in Lincoln.
Horn Cin I Dtin4
The main trouble has been to find
a big team that is willing to come to
Lincoln to play. That is what is bad
ly needed at the present time. Vith
the Thanksgiving game to be rUyed
at Seattle, Washington, the Hosiers
have not contracted a big game out
side the Missouri Valley.
The sise or reputation of the op
ponents mates no difference to the
athletic department. They are wil
ling to tackle any team in the coun
try. Dartmouth, Harvard, Prince
ton, Yale, Pittsburg, Tenn State
Pennsylvania, or any grid team of
national reputation will be welcomed
by the athletic department at a game
here next year.
A large number of schools have
been asked, but no favorable res
ponses had been received by Thurs
day night, according to Herbert Gish.
Because of Notre Dame's breaking so
late with the Huskers, it is some
what difficult to secure a game
many of the best schools are filled
If it is possible, however, the ath
letic department will secure an in
teresectional game.
The Valley schools will furnish
plenty of interesting games for the
football fan, with a good number of
home games. There is not a team on
the schedule that will not give the
Huskers a good fight. Both Drake
and Missouri took the Huskers down
a notch last season. Prospects at
the other schools are even better than
Nebraska in some cases. Many of J
them do not lose as many old men
as the Haskws will. Missouri is
especially planning en a powerful
team for next fall, and the Husker
game with then in Lincoln will be a
fight to the finish.

FLAH FOR RIFLE TOURNEY
May Have Contest Aaeg Noa-Fn-lereity
Mea if Eaaarh Report
A non-fraternity rifle tournament
te be fired the third week ef Janu
ary if at least five teams are enter
ed, it was announced yesterday by
Commandant Jewett. The winning
team will be matched with the win
ner of the interfraternity tourney
which will be fired during the same
time. The non-fraternity teams are
te consist f five members who may
be either men or women, or both, the
announcement states. No one who
has earned a rifle team letter will
be eligible. Rule for the match will
be the same as for the fraternty
tournament. Students interested
should see Captain Eggen in the ri
fle gallery in the southwest base
ment of Mechanical Engineering
building.
Valley schools will not start play
ing each other in basketball until the
middle of January according to the
1926 schedule. Until that time the
various teams will engage schools
outside of the conference.
From the Oklahoma camp comes
the comment that Nebraska, in
dropping the Sooner team from the
1926 schedule, hoped to pick an easy
schedule and win the Valley title.
The comment was added that prac
tically all the Valley teams were
scheduled in Lincoln, except in Kan
sas, a weak contender.
Nebraska does hope to win the
Valley championship. From a few
years back when it was the regular
occurrence for the Huskers to make
a clean sweep of the M;ssouri Valley
games, that was the idea. Only
once in these many years has the
Sooner team come between Nebraska
and a possible title.
Coach Robert Simpson of Missouri
has issued a csll to his trackmen for
the preparation of the indoor sea
son. Richards, winner of the Mis
souri Valley championship in the
shot and discus last spring is the cap
tain of the Tiger squad this season,
Bransford, high jumper, Moulder
and Farley, jprmters, and Lancas
ter in the pole vault have been work
ing out already.
Missouri will be in a fine position
to make another strong bid for the
Valley honors apsin this season with
a host of good field event men.
However, Kansas will be one of the
contenders as usual. Coach Schlad-
eeman, will have charge of the Jay
hawkers on the track for the last
time this spring. He tendered his
resignation early this week to the
authorities.
On the other hand, questionable
eligibility of Wilcox and Hendricks
was pointed out to the Oklahoma
management previous to the Husker,
game this fall. Of course no ac
tion was taken. These men played
against Nebruska and were later
ruled out because of professionalism.
The positive stand taken by the Val
ley officials against college pro
fessionalism is fitting enough cause
for the discontinuance of the Ne
braska relations.

REASON STILL MYSTERY
Coach Knute Rockne is quoted as
saying that that the break between
Nebraska and Notre Dame was none
of his doings and stated that per
sonally he did not see anything
wrong in a special dispatch from
South Bend published in the Omaha
World-Herald. The dispatch fol
lows: SOUTH BEND, Ind., Dec 9. The
reason for breaking off athletic re
lations between Notre Dame and
Nebraska, which began eleven years
ago, is the biggest mystery that has
developed in Notre Dame football
circles since the South Bend insti
tution has been a power of the grid
iron. I
Knute Rockne, coach of the Notre
Dame team, declared the break was
none of his doings. "Personally, I

The plan advanced by the Execu
tive Faculty also includes the forma
tion of a Council which is composed
of at least two member from each and chairman of the athletic board
club and two from the faculty. This nd he is maintaining a silence that
"We were treated as well as we al
ways have been at Nebraska."
The key to the mystery is held
by the Rev. George Finnegan, vice
president of Notre Dame University
since early Monday morning.
From unofficial ource it la
rumored that the reson bck of the
cessation of football lie in the re
fusal of Nebraska to extend the con
tract which expire in 1926'snd give
Notre Dame a game in 1927.
It is reported that Drake will suc
ceed Nebraska on the Notre Dame
schedule and that Creighton will also
be given a game.
Notre Dame does not intend to
make any public statement regarding
the severing of football relations
with Nebraska, according to Rev.
George Finnegan, vice president of
Notre Dame University, and member
of the board of athletic control.
"The attitude of Notre Dame to
ward Nebraska has been explained
to the officials of the Lincoln
school, and that is sufficient," Fath
er Finnegan said, "and we have noth
ing to say other than there will be
no football game between Notre
Dame and Nebraska in 1926."

council shall generally supervise and
counsel the various clubs.
All the clubs, with one exception,
now existing on the campus have
ratified the plan and President J.
Knox Montgomery has just finish
ed signing charters for these organi
zations. Much of the plan has been
worked out by President Montgom
ery, who is a keen student of human
nature, in connection with a small
committee of the faculty. So long
as the club abides by the spirit and
rules formulated, it can exist and
flourish ; but the moment any of the
rules are violated the Executive Fac
ulty may and will revoke the club's
charter. Through this faculty sup
ervision, such evils as fraternity
politics, snobbishness, excessive ex
penditures, etc, are expected to be
eliminated. Dr. Montgomery has
announced that any schools desiring
complete information concerning the
plan, may obtain same by writing to
him.
NEW CONCORD, 0 December
10. An experiment, which may ef
fect the campus life f many col
leges and universities in the entire
country, and perhaps the world, has
just been inaugurated at Musking
um College here. Briefly it is a
sincere effort to rsJUze the ad
vantages of fraternal life without
the disadvantages which thus far in
campus history hace accompanied ft.
Muskingum College never has al
lowed fraternities or sororities on
ber campus. As the human instinct
is gregarious, there has been a de
sire for some sort of social club life
Several strictly local social clubs
organized, although they had no
sanction by the administration of the
college. Some of them even adopt
ed Greek letter names. This led to
some discussion especially among the
older alumni as to their right to
be on the campus.
Last June the Board of Trustees,
after careful consideration, author
ized the Executive body of the col
lege to draw up a plan of operation
with regulations which wonli1 retain
the advantages and benefits of the
social club life without the accom
panying evils. The result is believed
to be unique in college annals and
is expected to solve the problem of
Muskingum College as well as that
of many other institutions over the
country.
The plan provides for the rgani-
