the ball on db'wtis. 'Yorit'arid Flippin began
to shove it back, when Pace was badly hurt
on the head. Ho stuck to his post with
characteristic grit, after a few minutes inter
mission. Doano got the ball again in a
scrimmage, but time was called before she
could do anything.
Score Nebraska 12, Doane 0.
SECOND HALF.
Nebraska started the ball with the ordin
ary V for five yards. Flippin made five
more and then Yont made auother of his
great end runs for twenty-five yards. Oury
failed'to gain, but Flippin went through the
lintf" three times in quick succession and
-Yont followed with a touch down. Flippin
punted out, but Pace missed a rather hard
goal.
Doane started with the flying wedge again
and covered five yards. Mains made two
good end runs for nearly ton yards each,
but in trying to go through the lino fumbled
and Lowryfoll on the ball. Flippin, Whip-
pie and Oury went through the lino in order.
Yont made nine yards through the lino and
then fifteen around it, and after more gains
through the line, Flippin rolled and crawled
ton yards with twenty-one men on top of
him. Doano got the ball in some way but
after three ineffectual attempts to gain, Ful
ler punted and Lowry caught and ran to the
centre line. Yont, Oury and Whipple
gained through the line, Whipple making
two fine gains. On the next down Fisher
got the ball away from Oury and ran to Ne
braska's fifteen yard line where ho was over
hauled and hauled down by Shue. Doane
now went at it hard and Mains pushed
through for ten yards in the course of four
downs. Flippin now took it on himself to
stir up the Nebraska men and with the ball
on Nebraska's five-yard line, it was high
time. He and Hopewell began their most
aggressive tactics and Flippin chaffed Mains
like a base ball player on the coaching lines.
Nebraska pulled herself together and four
downs ensued in which Mains, Feeze and
Williams tried in vain to move the ball.
Nebraska then took:it in lianfl'rind ontruatctl!
it to Flippin who in two: bumps mgainsttho
lino addod ton yards to the distance from
Nebraska's goal. At this point Owen was
hurt, and, as Doano insisted on replacing
him with Jeffrey, Pace put in Crawford in
place of Shue, whereupon Yont went around
his end for fifteen yards and Flippin around
his for fifteen more, and the impression got
abroad that Nebraska was having rather the
best of the experiment. Flippin and Yont
kept up a steady procession through the line
till Pace fumbled and matters looked bad.
Flippin somehow got hold of the ball and
actually gained a little. He and Yont again
went at the line and soon had the ball in the
centre of the field. After Oury had made
seven yards and Whipple twelve, Yont got
around the end and ran to within a yard of
goal. Flippin carried the ball over for Ne
braska's fourth touch down and Pace sent
the ball whizzing between the goal posts.
Doano started her flying wedge again, but
Crawford got' inside of it and its glory was
sadly departed by this time anyway. Be
sides Hopewell, Flippin, Whipple and Oury
had by their aggressive playing thoroughly
tried the endurance of Doane's lino and three
of her men were vainly endeavoring to re
strain Crawford, who had tasted blood and
whose very eye required an eleven to curb..
Consequently Fuller was forced to punt, and
Crawford and Johnston were after him so
hot that he made a very feeble effort which
Yont caught. He lost it on the next down
by dropping the ball. But liopewell fell on
it after Williams failed to gain through the.
line. Hopewell had three times before
claimed the ball, and this time he stated in,
emphatic language what he'd be before he
would give it up. After the captains on
each side had duly expostiVated, his chances
in the life to come were saved and he kept
the ball. The ball was now a little back of
the center lino. Yont took it on the first,
down and made the finest of his many bril
liant runs, throwing off all who got near
him and, after repeated attempts to down
