outiun and brought down by Hay ward
within tho five yard lino.

enemies of Baker and Ottawa fame,
for tho third time canio to griaf at our
bands. l
Bud Jones was always good for the
five yards gain and when other plays
failed ho took tho ball us a last resoit.
Denver was very confident of win
ning the game, judging from our do
foat at Butte. One man was beard to
remark that ho did not think Denver
would run np a score of ovor thirty

THD HASTINGS QAMO.
hast, Friday tho second cloven played
tlio Hustings athletic team on their
groundsill Hustings. AtthooloRo of
tho game the score stood, Hustings II,
Nebraska .
Tho boys relumed Saturday morning
ami were anything hut downcast over
their defeat. Thoy had many ways to
account for It. Tho most prominent
was "too much .Johnson."
Tim gamo was called at il;!10, Hast
ings winning tlio toss and choosing tho
norih goal. A strong wind was blow
ing straight down tho Hold, giving one
side nil the advantage.
For mom than twenty minutes Ne
braska kept tho bull in Hastings' terri
tory and i.o points wore mado by either
side. At this time a serious fumblo
was mado by Hastings and Camoron
securing the hall went through for a
touchdown. It was u pretty pick .ip,a
f-ilr run, and a legal play, but tho um
pire did not see it that way and the
ball was brought back. This was tho
only lime Nebraska took the ball over
the lino. They continued, however,
for some minutes longer to stop Hast
ings' advances, and kept the ball from
moving dangerously near their goal.
Hut a few minutes now remained of
the Hist half when Hroulotto. Hastings'
lefl half was disabled and .lolmson, tho
big 'un, was taken out of tho center to
play his position. This was tho turn
ing point of tho game ami from then
on Hastings located in Nebraska's ter
ritory and mado touchdowns at their
leasure.
It seemed impossible for the Ne
braska men to stop the rushes of this
giant, .Johnson. Tne Hastings line
was heavy and tho other two backs
were well built men, but tho superior
playing of the uuiversiy boys overcame
these difficulties. When Johnson came
at the Hue, however, pulling like a loeo
motlvo on an up grade, It was merely a
matter of how soon he could be
slopped. Ho was bound to gain.
Unjust decisions of tho umpire took
tho ball from Nebraska several times
when good gains were being made
Tho game was slow and uninteresting,
as may be seen from tho fact that
Hastings held tho ball nearly all the
time and mado only three touch
downs. One of these was mado in tho
last live minutes of thu first half and
the other two in tho second half.
Tho Nebraska boys all played a
plucky game against odds thnt were
dangerous to monkey with. Cameron
did some especially gritty tackling and
savjd many yards for Nebraska. No
one was seriously hurt, though many
of tho boys bear marks of violent con
tact with Hastings real estate.
Tho lineup was as follows:

NO CAPS AND GOWNS,
An interesting meeting of the class
of 'til) was hold yesterday afternoon,
about forty being present. Tho meet
ing was called to hear reports of tho
two committees appointed at tho last
meeting. Tho report of tho reception
committee was adopted and tho recep
tion to tho Chancellor will bo hold
about tho 80th of loxt mouth in tho
conservatory parlors.
Tho insignia committee reported in
favor of caps and gowns, but this was
rejected. Threo more members were
added to this committee, which was in
structed to find somothlng olso to dis
tinguish them from tho common herd.

oil nnd Un-
Ininlnena.Mko Manner.
From the opinion heard expressed by
members of tho faculty tliero will be a
general tinning over In athletic affairs.
Some of the professors avo very much
dlttplouscd with tin Way things avo
managed. In tholv opinion llioro Is no
business method about anything. Tho
managers of tho various learns have
lull swav over tho exchequer. Thero
Is no auditing committee, expenses are
contracted and money paid out with
out accounting to anybody. Money Is
collected In tho same way, nobody
given any credit, no record kept of it,
and whether tho collector has any au
thority for doing it jio one knows.
These things. must be changed, thoy
say, and think tho initial step must be
taken by themselves.
This state of things' seems true to u
largo extent, but It is extremely doubt
Tul whether any money has been col
lected or spent which cannot bo legiti
mately accounted for. Such matters
arc run in rather a slip shod manner
and sumo change to more business-like
methods would bo very acceptable to
all concerned.

A LIVELY MEETING.
Tho debating association held a
meeting in Union hall last Wednesday
afternoon to consider whether an
amendment should bo addrd to the
constitution debarring any person who
had won a previous contest from en
tering tho debates any year after.
It was nearly 2 o'clock before a quo
rum was present and then a lively ses
sion ensued. Tho motion was brought
befors the house, and during the courso
of tho remarks soveral gentlemen be
came very heated Ono faction
claimed that certain persons bad no
right to voto becuuso thoy bad not
signed tho constitution, and tho other
faction claimed that certain other per
sons bad no right to vote because they
had not paid their dues.
Tho chair finally ruled that owing to
tlio fact that none of the members had
signed tho constitution, tho proceed
ings up to this point wore entirely out
of ordor and all action was null and
void.
At this point MoNeal and his crowd
loft tho room. Thoy returned, how
ever, and then a fight nearly ensued.
A compromise was soon effected by
those presout signing tho constitution,
and tho meeting was called to ordor
again. Tho amendment was put bo
foro tho houso, sovon voting for and
four against it. As tho motion re
quired a two-thirds voto in ordor to
carry, it was declared lost.

A BOPH-HnHOH SOCIAL.
Tho freshman class infil again tho
IHth lo consider tho proposed reception.
Everybody wanted tho reception, hut
nearly all tho alteruoon was spent in
discussion. All tried to do tho business
according lo parliamentary rules, but
each one dlH'oicd us lo what purllu
hienluiy rules demanded. A division
was called for after each vole, a point
of order raised at. every opportunity,
and us toon as the chair had decided
the point of order, and appeal would bo
taken. Several good long speeches
were made, some sarcasm used, and
several talks heartily applauded. Mr.
Fullmer pieslded In a way that would
rival a Chinch Howe. Finally it was
decided to huvo tho reception in Uio
parlors of tho I'nivoisity Consul vntory
and tho following committee was
authorized to oo-oporato with tlio Sophs

Lust year tho other clubs were very
envious ot the perfect management

dividual work of tho members, and
from tho start they have made this year

peated. CHARLES DIXLER DEAD.

Itaeh Other,
Thu Doiiiio munugonioiit mudo usu
visit In reference lo a game with that
Institution Wednesday. Thoy canio
on a high horse and said thoy would
concede nothing. uuld not play In
Lincoln or Omaha and would only play
in Crete, to which wo conceded In the
hope of making a gamo. Thoy would
only pay $" for tho game, to which wo
conceded in the hope ol u game,
Would not let the coach play, to which
we consented, because wo did not need
lo huvo him to win. Would name
their own day, November II), or threo
days after our hard Kansas gamo, to
which wo consented. Insisted on play
ing Mains, who is postmaster in tho
town nnd takes no work in college,
and wo gavo In lo thai, and it looked
ax If we would force them into a game,
much as thoy disliked it, but Mains
had a btroug card up his sleeve. Ho
would play by no other rules except
thos.i of lust year, which allow tho
rough dying wedge and mass plays and
which have been decided by all to bo
too rough.
Wo would huvo consented to this,
along with our other concessions were
it not for the I act that wo play under
tho now rules in our league, and as
thai game would come right in tlio
midst of our chunlpionship season, only
threo days alter the Kansas game,
when no time would be had lo develop
tho different interference nnd spoil our
own interference for tho Iowa game
which follows so" shortly ulterwards.
Wo could not concede Wre it onrlt.
in tho season and at the time when wo
wanted to play them wo would have
played under any rules they could de
vise. Hut why wo should stop right in
tlio midst of our inter-collegluto series
and change our whole stylo of play to
give a gamo to a one-horse fcchool like
Doano is nioro than wo can see. They
will say: "We beat you last year."
Yes, so did the Michigan .Military
Academy tie Michigan in tho first part
of tho year and so did Doano beat
Iowa and Grlnncll, but how did she
doitV By getting together a team of
veterans and practicing all summer
and then going against these othoi
teams in tho first weok of their organ
ization. And how did Doano beat Ne
braska last year? By playing her
coach in a gam when the Nebraska
team had only been organized for u
week and a half. Hut Doano has a
good manager and ho writes well for
the newspapers and ho will probably
spread himself to explain those things
which ho knows are true.
WANTED--ENTHUSIASM.
The interest displayed by the girls of
tho University in matters athletic is
something remarkable. On Wednes
day afternoon, the 28rd of October,
threo fair co-eds dared to view tho foot
ball practice from tho west steps of the
main building. Such interest is smelv
appreciated by tho captain and team,
but why can't tho young ladles take u
little nioro interest and at least know
who It is who works so hard to give tho
University a good team. This interest
by tho faculty and students, ladies as
well as gentlemen, is what makes a
winning team. Doano had nil her
available men on tho team, so that it
was loft to the prosidontaud tho ladles
to furnish thu enthusiasm, and this as
much as anything elso is what makes
the nion work.
It makes all these smaller colleges,
as baker, Grinnoll and Doano win, and
why can't wo huvo a little of itt If
tho ladles will show an inclination t'
como out to practice tho management
will gladly furnish them with roservod
seats. C. S.
