Hit I 1 J S THE DAILY NE BR AS KAN FRESHMAN TILT GETS ATTENTION Kansas 'Aggie Yearlings In With Strong Bunch of Ball-luggers FI.ETCHER K AGGIE STAR Saturday's game between the Ne braska yearlings and the Kansas Ag gie freshmen looms up as a worthy replacement for the regular Varsity tangle. Reports from the Kaggie camp are filled with the prowess of the farmers. Glowing pictures of well-balanced eleven are painted by Manhattan scribes, which all goes to prove that the combat this week end will be hard-fought and inter esting. Fletcher, pint halfback for the Ag gies, seems to disregard his size, and is easily the star of the aggregation. According to reports, he is an unerr ing snatcher on the receiving end of forward flips, and has never failed to make at least one touchdown against whatever team he was opposing. Rus sell holds down the fullback position in polished fashion, and Sanders at right half proves a dependable run ning mate for Fletcher. He is a triple threat man of great ability, but his punting comes up for the greatest share of praise. Ryan, all-state quar ter from Vernon, Texas, concludes the quartet. Kan sans Hare Heavy Lib A strong forward wall gives the team a balanced effect calculated to cause trouble for the opposition. Ends Nally and Meredith excell on defensive play but have the height to deliver on the ball-advancing efforts. Bowman, Freeman and Horner han dle the tackle positions, and Brown and Wilvers will probably get the call at guard. Sanders is tr first string center, and out-classes other contenders there as Case does here. "Choppy" had the yearlings cor nered on the upper field for their first secret drill Thursday. A passing defense was being stressed by all the assembled coaches, and McBride, ex Lincoln high plunger, was withheld from active participation in the of fensive spurt staged against Racely's D team.

CARNEGIE TECH TO MEET MEEHAN CREW Walter Camp is widely known as the "Father of American Football", he is in fact the "Father" of the game in respect to the first and re cent kinds of football tactics known only to American Football. He played in the first game of football ever to be staged in this country, which was the game between Yale and Harvard in 1876 under Rugby rules, while he was yet seventeen years old. When he left college he devoted a great deal of his time to th develop ment of the game and shortly he was widely known as a mentor of the game. He made the change from fif teen players to eleven and devised the "safety" and "quarterback" be fore he was twenty. In 1880 he suc ceeded in having the "scrimmage" adopted by the convention. This change gave the holder of the ball undisputed determination of the way the ball should be delivered to the "quarterback". The "block" game was the next change made by Camp, which called for a certain number of yards to be made in a given number of downs. This change soon brought about another important change, the "low tackle", which in turn brought about the change In the formation from the open to a "closed forma tion". Walter Camp has made many of the rules in the present day foot ball. It was his idea that the field be marked into the "gridiron". He was the originator of the All-Amencan Teams. He selected the first in 1889 and chose one each year from that time until his death. There will doubtless be many mythical "All AmonVnn teams" named in the fu ture, but the "All American" team passed out of the picture when Wal ter Camp died. A definite set of rules was formed in the year 1905. Delegates from all tb fortv-eieht colleges met and formed a National Collegiate Ath letic Association and appointed a football rules committee. From this time rules followed in collegiate games were formed and restrictions made by this committee. The conv mittce could always rely on the judg ment of Walter Camp on any impor tant measure that came up. Walter Camp was not only a foot ball mentor but also helped greatly in the development of the athletic body. He did much to bring about the use of his famous "Daily Dozen". To provide for the erection at Yale of a lecture and recitation hall in memory of William L. Harknes. '81, his family has increased a of $400,000 to $900,000. $1500.00 Display FRATERNITY & SORORITY .

The Carnegie Tech football squad today began its preparation for the intersectional game with the undefeated New York University team in the iankee Sta dium, New York, Saturday afternoon. jThe drill was of the lightest nature, the men spending less man an nour on fundamentals. Coach Walter Steffen, former Ail American quarterback intends to have his strongest eleven pitted KAGGIES LEAVE FOR MARQDETTE BATTLE Undefeated Kansas Aggia Eleven ' Will Perform in Milwau kee Saturday Manhattan, Kansas, Nov. 4. With five straight victories tucked safely away Coach Bachman's Kansas Aggie hoofers leave today for Milwaukee where they will do battle Saturday wim me aggregation wnicn lies in wait at Marquette university. Texas, Creighton, Kansas, Okla homa, and Arkansas universities have felt the claws of the Wildcats although twice the purple goal line has been crossed for a touchdown, the first time by Oklahoma and again last Saturday by Arkansas. And yet there is doubt about the game. Mar quette undoubtedly has a strong eleven, beating Creighton last Satur day by three touchdowns. The Aggies defeated the Blue jays 13 to 0. Injured Men Improving Although the many injured Wild cats are gradually rounding into playing shape, several, including Karl Enns, quarter and right half, Don Springer, left half, Don Meek, right half, Ken Boyd, right half, are as yet unfit for service Saturday. Joe Holsinger, star left halfback, will undoubtedly be in the harness again Northwestern University Friday where they will hold a light prac tice. Leaving Northwestern in the afternoon they will arrive at Mar quette at 8 P. M. Friday. Indiana, in 1925, expended $6, 000,000 more for public education than it did in 1924.
