Manager A. A. Bisohof of the foot ball team
kindly furnished the Hesperian with a report
of foot ball matters. Mr. Robinson, the last
year coach is studying law in the east and is
unable to consider a proposition to return as
coach. There have been several applicants
for this position all of whom are well known
foot ball men and have a high standing among
eastern teams.
D. L. Full of Brown University has been
highly recommended by Kobinson but his
terms are very high. Luciau Stacy of Ft.
Leavenworth, Kansas, is also an applicant,
lie is lieutenant in the U. S. army and an old
player at West Point where he filled the place
of end and half back. F. H. Yost of West
Virginia university and a member of the U.
of W. V. '04 and '05 team is also being con
sidered. Mr. Yost is a large fellow 5 feet
1 1 inches in height and weighs 100 pounds.
He has excellent recommendations from
players on the eastern teams. There has been
no action taken yet in regard to electing a
coach and the very best man will be secured
when a choice is made. 'The foot hall. pros
peels in the U. of X. are more promising for
the coming year than they have ever been
before.
The foot ball association is out of debt and
starts in with a new management which could
not be strengthened. Mr Bischof graduates
this year in the Academic College and will
return next fall to take Junior law. He is
energetic and a favorite among the business
men of the city as well as college students.
With such a man as manager there is no
doubt of the Success of the coming season.
The schedule of games which have so far
been arranged is as follows:
Oct. 8 Xebraska vs Iowa State College,
(Ames) at Lincoln. Oct. 22 Nebraska vs.
Win. Jewell College, (Liberty, Mo.) at Kan

There will also be games arranged with
Universities of Minnesota and Wisconsin, and
they will probably be plaj'ed on our campus
about the middle of November. No arrange
ments have been made with Wesley an or
Tarkio yet. Knox College is anxious to play
the U. of N. here but no arrangements have
been made.
IIii Beta. TCiippa. Orator. '
The Phi Beta Kappa orator for commence
ment week this year is to be Edward W. Em
erson, of Massachusetts, the only liviug son
of Ralph Waldo Einerrou. He is a Harvard
graduate and is a man of versatile tastes and
attainments. He is well known as an author,
speaker, physician, painter and lecturer. He
holds a degree from the Harvard Medical
School, but gradually withdrew from the prac
tice of medicine to study art. He has pub
lished much and lectured much on various
literary and artistic subjects. The Phi Beta
Kappa society is fortunate in securing him for
he will prove interesting as a speaker, not
only because of his own personality and at
tainments but because of his father's name.
