,1 hy Holme and his bunch from Salt
i- k wm handed another defeat by th
.ha Colts at Vinton Street park Sstur-
afternoon, the Anal score being I to 1
ntw was a repetition of the same the
lsfore when Omaha made four tallies
hp met Inning. Friday no more wer
ld ftr the first, while In th game
mrday the Colta put on another for
.il measure. Holmes' pitchers aeem to
. terror of large cities which they
aunt net orer until well warmed up, but
,1
the game yesterday -Holmes did not
l i ve Harmon, who started the ball going,
i chance to warm up at the expense of the
prctator' time, but called In Mr. Ahlln
lMitn Hastings, who pitched a pretty gam.
Koukalik was sent In to oblige for Pa
i.nfl pitched a splendid game all the way
; It. nigh, although three hits and a base on
:il!s were charged against him In the
eighth Inning. Harmon started to hear
(iv Holmes, but his life was short.
Pender went aftar him with a two-bagger
which on advice of poor coaching he tried
tu stretch Into a triple and was caught.
Cner was Jarred in the slats and Bassey
hit for a double, which perched Carter on
ihl rd. Welch hit an unexpected Texas
leaguer to left field, scoring Carter. Bassey
ami Welch tried for a doubt steal which
was successful, landing Bassey across the
plate. Polan reached first on Qulllln's
irfueal to hold his grounder and then he
i.n-1 Welch tried another double steal, which
also worked, snoring Welch. Runkle
Minified, scoring Do lan, when Ducky Holmes
cam running In from his garden and or
dered Mr. Harmon to the stable. That
ended the run getting, for Ahlln showed
them all how ball la pitched in Hastings,
' and none reached first for the balance of
. tlio Inning.
Lincoln lieta la the Una.
Lincoln's first score was mad in the
fourth Inning, when tha fleet footed
Ketchum walked, went to second on St.
Louis' Jack's single, went to third when
. Collins hit to Runkle, retiring Thomaa at
second and home on a double steal with
Collins. The second run for Lincoln was
made In the eighth Inning when Qulllln
whs given a base on balls, went to second
on Ketchum' single to right and home on
Barton's safe hit to left.
Holmes started a neat double play in the
fifth Inning when he made a hard run for
a fly from Runkle'a bat, going clear to
middle field for It, and then caught Welch,
who had led too far off second, thinking
it Impossible for Holmes to get the ball.
Omaha's fifth tally waa made In the
eighth inning. Carter drove a double to
left field and scored on Bassey single
to middle field. Bender made two doubles
In three time up, but was caught each
time by being too eager on the bases.
The first time when he tried to stretch
his two-bagger Into 'a triple and the second
time when . he tried to come home from
second on a wild pitch by Ahlln. He came
within an ace of making the last play,
. as none of the Lincoln1 team seemed to be
watching for him to coma, but Ahlln rushed
to the plate In time to get hint by a close
, decision. ..'...,,,'. '
Thomaa mad a grandstand play when he
caught Qulllln's throw of Bender' grounder
with one hand. Bender waa Johnny on the
" spot when Ketchum tried to come home
after Dolan's error at first. He squatted
right in front of the base and blocked off
the runner until he had the ball to put
him out.

Siadeat ef the Uaate Uhfi Hla leva
f Trial Contest.
CRETE. Neb., May 6.-T0 the Editor of
The liee: It was my pleasure to see llir
first game of modern toot ball played at
Brown university, also the first intercol
legiate game in Nebraska. I have fnlluwttl
the game cloaely ever since last Saturday.
I whs present at the Nebraska-Dounc
game, the first one played under the new
lules, the proof of whtcn had been sent out
on purpose to guide the participants. As
regarria the new game my opinion is as
follows: The game on Saturday, April 2s,
which resulted in the score of k to l in fa
vor of Nebraska, was not quite a fair test.
The ground was muddy and this pt evented
running to the best advantage. Again, the
play eis acre not in good form after the
winter and they were not trained to the
new game. Drop kicks, place kicks and
forward passes failed, but these probaoly
will succeed better with better trained men.
Several players have pronounced the ten
yaid rule a hindrance to good foot ball.
Doane made the distance five times on
downs and Nebraska three thnes. once on
plungts. However, plunges resulted in
tains if four and five yards several times.
Panting waa a great feature and this re
sulted In sectucular play for the spec
tators. My judgment Is that the new game
will be prettier and more spectacular and
also safer, whic h is now the prime consid
eration, notwithstanding some old-lime
fool ball enthusiasts, too nearly like the
arena enthusiast of former tlms. seem to
long 10 se broken limbs and head. m
Saturday no one ass Injured In the slightest
degree. The touchdown wss made after a
fumble of a punt on the part of Doane'
quarterback, and the score should have
been to U. Thla would seem to justify
some prophecies, but th halve were only
twenty and fifteen minutes each, and H will
need full thirty-minute halves for much
acorini- Probably the score will be loner
than (ornieilj. 'Beef all! not count so

much, which Is a decided advantage., A
fast team of smaller players with a good
punter and swift ends will not be, as before,
at such, a disadvantage against the 2O0
pounders. Naturally these object to the
change. It wilt take ar entire season to
test properly the new rule and the com
bined experience of east and west. It will
be well to try the rules thoroughly, and to
further modify them If necessary. Foot ball
has done a great deal for college youth In
the past. Its abuse la no argument against
Its proper use. Let all rightly constituted
authorities put an end to the playing of
professionals and bring down the boys
from the bleachers -and see that they get
that physical development, without which
they will be useless In the rough, ' buttle
like life ef- the present day.
