LINCOLN, Nov. .-8peclJ.)-At last
Klnf Cote' Cornhuskers may Taga the
rest that has been denied them for over
a month. Today's game with tho Jay
hawkers marked the closing of as hard
, string of game as a team from Ne
braska university- aver faced. With Mlrw
nesota, Colorado, Ames and Kansas to
meet successively not a moment of loafing
lias been permitted by tho coaches. Even
prior to the Gopher contest there, was the
hard practice necessary to put the men
In flx to face the northern giants, ttut
now, with nothing; more formidable than
Denver and Doane to face before tho
final great game of tho season in St.
I.oUls Thanksgiving day, a let-up In
titrcnuostty Is imminent. For at least a
week an that will be required of tho
players will be that they keep, In good
Physical trim and not forget tho lessons
they, havn learned.
This fact may result In a closer game
with ' Denver next Saturday than would
! the csso were the players forced to
work "at tho top-notch continuously this
wee. Though the Denver players have
not mado a formidable record this season,
the act that the Nebraska game will
be the biggest one on their schedule may
lead to a repetition of what happened In
l..wrence today. "Deacon" Koehler, tho
former Nebraska and Chicago star. Is
coaching Denver this year, which In an
other fact that will bo taken aefTHint of
by Coach Cole In preparing for Mia west
erners. Koehler Is well acquainted with
conditions at Nebraska and may be better
able-to gauge the strength of the Corn
buskers than have some of the other
coaches who may have aent their warriors
to do battle on Nebraska Held this year,
j Ureal Showing by Team.
; The performance of the Nebraekuns this
year 1 has been, all things considered, u
remarkablo one. Starting with a coach
Wholly unacquainted with his players and
.with the somewhat peculiar conditions
under which he would have to work, with
the only veterans on the team men who had
not forgotten their disastrous experiences
the preceding year, and with not a single
player of acknowledged Klellar attain
ments, the team has still gbne through a
schedule a hard as any faced by a west
ern eleven, stacking up a record mean
while that will be hard to beat, whatever
the result of the games still remaining. to
be played. The conclusion of the really
bard portion of the schedule by today's
game has furnished the occasion for the
exchange of compliments of a most heart
felt nature, between the enthuslusts who
have accompanied the team through Its
varying experiences and the players them
nelves. That the season is nearly over was a
fact made significant today by the an
nouncement that Assistant Coach Peck
Will be with the team only one more week,
leaving for Virginia to resume hi studies
after the Denver game. At the time Peck
was engaged to assist in the instruction
of the Cornhuskers. it was agreed that
lie would be at liberty to leave a week
or so before the conclusion of the scuson.
He has stayed longer than it wus thought
lie would be able to at the time he camo

Mat to carry the Cornhuskers through
the worst part of their labors. Tho playtra
must still undergo a stiff course of In
struction for tho St. Louis game, but the
greater part of their training has already
been acquired, and Coach Cole will prob
ably need no assistance after the departure
jf Peck. The latter will probably lako
sort of unkind pleasure In wltnesxlug
the proposed defeat of Denver next Sat

than that against Kansas. Bt. Louis, mean

games todsy, must take on Kansas next
Saturday.
The remarkable potency of field goals In
winning games In all parts of the country
this year has revived discussion of the
fairness of the present valuation placed on
a fortunate kick. The case- of Nebraska
Itself Is pointed to by tho enthusiasts In
Lincoln as Illustrative of the unfairness of
tlis present system. Last week Nebraska's
only earned points In the gam with Ames
were scored on two kick from placement
by Captain Weller. Ames carried. the ball
across Nebraska's goal for a touchdown,
yet wa beaten. Almost the- reverse, so far
as tho Cornhuskers were concerned, was
true In tho Minnesota game, Nebraska stor
ing a touchdown, yet being beaten through
the efficiency of Capron'a toe. far, It is
probable that fewer touchdowns have been
scored throughout the country than was
ever before the case.
Dr. J. T. Lees, chairman of the Nebraska
foot ball committee and a, member of the
International rules committee, which has
sole power" In making or altering the rules
governing the game, Is emphatic In his
stand for a change In the present system
of scoring points on field goals. In an in
terview for The Bee today he declared that
ho would favor a reduction of the value of
a field goal from four point to two, "If
the valuation now placed on a safety touch
down were not already two points, I would
favor cutting down the Held goal valua
tion even to that point," he asserted.
Lees Wonld Change Jtnle.
When the rules were gone over by the
committee last year, Dr. Lees proposed
the amendment he is now advocating, but
received little encouragement from the
other members of the body and abandoned
his campaign. It Is probable that he will
again bring up the matter at the meeting
of tho committee to be held at the close
of the season. In brief, his contention Is
that It in unfair to score four point on a
lucky kick from possibly as near tho cen
ter of the fluid' as the forty or forty-five
yard line, thereby making the work of car
rying the ball nearly half-the length of
the field worth only two, cr perhap only
one, point more. Ho considers that It Is
manifestly unfair that a team on tho of
fense be held at a good distance from Its
opponent's goal, only to nail four points
despite the most, deserving efforts of the
defenders.
Admitting that the work of the commit
tee ha been aimed for the past two years
at opening the game and making the kick
ing department stronger. Dr. Lees be
lieves that sufllclent has already been ac
complished In that line to Justify a tighten
ing in the regulations. He declares that
ho would even, go so far. as to effect a
partial reversion to tho old five-yard rule.
Within the fifteen or twenty-yard line he
would lessen the .distance to be mudo In
three downs from ten yards to live. Ills
reason for suggesting this change is the
fact tha( when the ball has been carried as
near to the goal as that, use of the for
ward pass, onslde. or short kicks, or the
other play Inspired by the rules under
which the game is now played, are of lit
tle use. When the ball has been carried
Inside the twenty-five-yard line It Is now
usually necessary for the team on offense
lo resort to old-tlmo formations and Une
bucking tactics such a were used before
the game was debrutallzed. With this con
dition true. Dr. Lee Insist that tho yards
to go should also be lessened to what they
were previously.

thirty to forty runners. The course will

FOOT BALL EOS THE GRADUATE
Harvard Man Proposes to Have
Alumni tiaraes.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Nov. S. One of the
most powerful arguments brought against
foot ball as a. col lego sport by its oppo
nents Is that by Its very nature it prevents
men from keeping It up after leaving col
lege. It Is also alleged that very little real
fun Is got out of the gamo by those who
play it, and that its participants go in for
It vastly more on account of the glory and
publicity attached to it than for the sport
lUolf. .
A suggestion coming from C. O. Osborne,
right tackle on last year' Harvard team.
In the form of . a letter to the Harvard
Crimson, may do much to abolish these
evils of the game In. so far as Harvard
Is concerned, provided the suggestion Is
carried out. . Osborne was a player who en
joyed the gam himself every minute he
was playing. He played foot ball purely
for the fun he got out of it, and he Is re
luctant to abandon the game now that he
is no longer in college. For the last few
weeks be has been at Harvard coaching
and playing regularly on the scrub team.
Osborne's idea is for the Harvard grad
uates to form a foot ball team for a few
weeks every fall, play a few practice
games and end up with a game against the
Harvard "varsity somewhere near the mid
dle of the season.
There Is much to be said for the plan.
Every year a number of graduate come
back to Cambridge to couch the team and
sometimes play on the second team. If
these men were to be brought back at the
same time a very strong team would be
organised from among them. And there
is enough foot ball talent around Boston
to make It easy to organise a very strong
eleven. The plan seems to be a good one
from all its aspects. The grads would be
enabled to keep bp their foot ball for a
few weeks every fall, they would be
broivght into close touch with, the 'varsity
team each year, and the 'varsity itself
would be enabled to profit by playing regu
larly against the. strongest possible kind
of scrub team.
Osborne's suggestion was limited to
Harvard, but If, the plan proved to be a
success there It might be followed by
other colleges. In the future the regular
Harvard-Yale foot ball game might be
the occasion of a contest on the p.ecedlng
day of, teams composed of graduates of the
two institutions. . Such a contest regularly
takes place at New London, where a race
for "Gentlemen's Eights'' has com to be
a regular Rart of the program.

MICHIGAN TEAM UP ON EDGE
Wolverines Expect to Win a Victory
- ' from Pennsylvania.
DO NOT LOOK roa SNAP, HOWEVER
tone a Yost Careful Jfet to t'se Any
, of HI New Formation at Tfash
vllle, Wnere Penasy Wa
Watching.
. ANN ARBOR. Mich.. Nov. .-(Ppeclat.)-In
another' week Hurry-Up Tost' foot ball
machine will have reached it maximum
efficiency for 1907. Barring accident he ex
pect to give Pennsylvania a drubbing on
November 11 It I not difficult to see that
Pennsy Is marshalling every possible re
source to repeat It performance of 1901
.and beat Michigan again, this time on it
own grounds. At the Mlchlgan-Vanderbllt
game at Nashville last Saturday Pennsy
wa represented by two poaches. Torrey
and Maurice. They didn't introduce them
selves to either McOugln or Tost, but
wrtched at the side line and sa'hered what
Information they could. It wa for that
reason that Michigan relied upon straight
foot ball, and all the trick with which
Yost ha been stocking the repertory all
season were kept In the background. When
asked what be supposed the Penn coaches
thought of the Michigan team, Tost
grinned.
"We didn't give them anything to think
about," he answered. "I guess they' know
about sa much of Michigan's resources as
they did two week ago and not much
more. They carried a sweet smile, and I
guess they are expecting something soft."
What they will get Is known only to Yost
himself and the team. At the close of last
Saturday's game Bob Blake, the captain of
the Commodores, said of his opponents:
"Michigan ha a great team. I wouldn't
be surprised if It were the best In tho
country." So in spile of the fact that the
Penn coaches seemed to think Michigan
without trick play they realise that the
fight will be a hard one If Pennsy win It.
Pennsylvania i Next.
No more game will be played by the
Wolverine until the one with Pennsy. On
Saturday, the 9th, a' game will be played
with the Reserves, as It Is thought inad
visable to let two weeks go by without
a game, when the men are in the pink of
condition. The coaches Intend that there
shall bo no loafing In the two weeks. It
was given out a official order early In
the week that any man who shirked, no
matter how great his known ability, would
be derrlcked and a sub given a chance at
his place. The three-hour dally secret prac
tices must keep up their vigor and dash up
to the last moment.
Michigan' defense, which remained In
violate until the gamo with the champions
of the south, will be counted upon a the
strongest factor in Its favor. Vanderbllt
wa the first team to mak a first down,
and In the whole game they gained only 18S
yard on downs to Miohlgan' 297. Th
southerners were not held for down once,
because every time they found themselves
In danger Bob Blake's boot was deoended
upon to get them out. Michigan punted less
and wa held for down twice during the
game. Even Tost, who 1 usually reticent,
waxes enthuslastlo when questioned about
the line, and has repeatedly declared that
it cannot be beaten anywhere. "If the
back Held was up to the standard of the
line." says the coach, "no one could hold
VS."
Scan! the Keystone.
The keystone of the line Is, of course,
Germany BchuU. In every game thla year
the big Teuton ha made himself the most
conspicuous player on the field. He does
a greater share of the tackling than any
other one man, and 811m Stono of Vander
bllt was the first man who came anywhere
near holding him. His defensive and of
fensive play both are greatly enhanced by
the fact that ha Is able to snap the ball
back with one hand, and thus use the other
to steady himself. His passes are always
swift and accurate and he never fumbles.
In the Ohio game an amusing Incident oc
cured whm the Ohio Stste university
players misunderstood the signals of the
Michigan quarter and thought the ball had
been put into play. There was a small
Sized scrimmage and the team tussled to
gether for a moment, but when the ref
eree's whistle brought them back to posi
tion It was found that Schuls was still bend
ing over the ball In his place. He had not
even been Jostled Into straightening up.
He has 22U pounds of beef and "Octy" Gra
ham, who graces his right aide, has 315
pounds more. "Octy" wa responsible for
both the scoring field goals In the Vander
bllt game. Another line star I Rhelns
chlld, who like Graham and Schuls, la a
veteran of the 1904 and 1906 team. At
tackle he helps to stiffen the right wtng and
he Is frequently used for carrying the ball.
Casey, who plays the other tackle, has
never allowed an opponent' formation to
plow through hi position. The others,
Knibs. the left guard, and Rumney and
Hammond, ends, are all first class men.
Hammond I another veteran, valuable
especially for his punting
Wasmund, the quarterback, who had
been playing a rather Indifferent game be
fore, showed up wonderfully at Nashville
and will be counted on for first class en
gineering of his man.
It Is generally believed that Yost expects
his team to beat the easterner, but he will
not commit himself, and is afraid his men
will not realize the seriousness of the task.
Scats have been placed on sale for the
game, and lo.Ooo were sold In the first
twenty-f-vur hours. Twenty-five thousand
peoplo or more are expected and a new ad
dition to the bleachers, completing the
circle around the field, is being erected.

YORK TOO HEAVY FOR OMAHA
Conntry Tram Ontwelgh City by Fif
teen Pounds to Mnn.
"Friday' foot ball gamo between the
Mgh school teams of Omaha and York was
J hard fought from start to finish," says
Coach Howard. "Many York enthusiasts
' admitted that the Omaha boys outplayed
I their opponents. Tho York players were
, considerably older, also, many of them ftp
i peering to bo over 20.
i "i ...... i. -' - ..., ..-,. 1. ....... T .i .. .. nr 1 1 1 ..
game partially mado up for its lightness.
"All three of York's touchdowns were
due to her star punter, not to any ability
to carry the ball. At first her kicker only
punted about twenty-five yards, which
deceived Omaha's back field men Into play
ing up too near. Then by a well-directed
forty-yard kick, the ball was placed over
the heads of Omaha's back fielders, and
York' speedy ends could make their
tackles within Ave yards of goal. After
that. It was only a matter of beef to hold
Omaha for downs, and then carry the ball
over for a touchdown. This course was.
followed all three times with success.
Omaha's most successful play was thn
short on side kick, although Iinti iiti'ii'a
line rushes through holes made by Laten
ser were yard gains, too. McKinmy had
two trials for a drop kick from tho field,
but Omaha's lino could not nold uKdinri
York' weight long enough for him to cal
culate and take his time. A strong wind
also Influenced the ball wiillo it was lu
the air. ,
Until Selby's leg was slightly injured
he kicked out of tight places a number of
time, always playing wonderfully cool
and steady. Plxley played quarter the
first half and ran the team with good
Judgment and speed. Bscauao of York's
weight and speed only a few trick plays
were tried, as the husky farmer lads
seemed ablo to meet anything by oneer
beef.
Nagl, in spite of a lame shoulder, playni
the whole game and was a match for bin
opponent the entire time. But few gains
were mado through his gutr 1, although
he weigh less than 160. W.nr.tn' How
ard's game at right end was .tiarvelious,
considering the fact that only two days
before he was seriously sick wlt'i tonsl
litls and fever. Tilly Lehmer'a playing
st quarterback during the seoid half was
hard and fast, his work in the hark field
when York had the ball being especially
good. He was the third of the Irlo of sick
Omaha players, all of whom were aj
plucky as could be.
Captain Hank Ls tenser had to play half
bark for the last few minutes of play, as
McKlnney and Selby were both retired
because of injuries. Gardner played Mo
, Kinney's half, with his usual determiua-
Itlon and go.
"Whlnnery. Wilson and McWhlnney all
played excellent ball. MMVhiriney un
doubted outplayed York's center, and the
other two men did their share In Omaha's
plucky fight."
I Mr. McMillan, the faculty member who
accompanied the team said:
I tie. wnom game was a rattle between
brains and beef, with the latter so much

Omaha st ored at all. The contest showed

What we have is extra nice. The Nut Coal is separated from the other sizes bv means
of screens; it is then loaded into car over shaker shaking screens, through which tho
dust and dirt are carried away. In order to give you best possible value we screen the
coal again at our yards, in order to remove dust and screenings due to breakage in transit
