How much they have accomplished and
what strength they will add to the Com
husker eleven cannot he told until after
the opening games of the schedule. Right
end Beltser anl Guards Frum and Hart
have shown the greatest strength In the
punting line and little difficulty Is likely
to be encountered in getting a satisfactory
punter. Frum has been sending the ball
sixty and slxty-flvs yards, which Is as far
as Captain Weller was capable of booting
it. He- says he will be able to beat the
sixty-five yard mark after a little more
training this fall. Beltser and Hart have
been making distancea nearly equal to those
of Frum. They can be depended on to
strengthen the punting division of the
Comhusker eleven.
The great problem of the kicking depart
ment will be to develop a men who csn
score points on drop or place kicks. Aa yet
only one man etanda out aa likely to suc
ceed to that position Utt vacant by the
departure of Captain Weller.Tls is the
lightning fullback. Kroger, who scored
touchdaan on Minnesota last fall by his
rapid work. Last season he attracted some
attention with his drop kicking, and at that
time waa discussed as the probable suc
cessor to Captain Weller. This spring in
tha early practice he shewed marked Im
provement over his kicking of last fall.

There were no players on the 1T Ne

curately enni'gh and aa far aa waa neces
sary ta assure that It would not be rp
ture4 by ths opposing team. Fumbling of
the hall and a slowness In getting under
It to receive the psss were fata) weak
nesses, and they often resulted In the
opponent making gains. The failure of
an end t receive a forward ps ta the
game with Minnesota last fall when he
hd a clear field before him to the Gopher
goal, cost Nebraska a touchdown which
would have won the contest. Captaja
Weller and Quarterback Cooke were th
most adept of any of the Cornhuakeera In
asslng the hall, but they rarer exhibited
the accuracy of Surrett of Colorado, or
HuSrard of Ames. To receive the pasa
there was na player on the team who
cwrid be depended on. although Captain
Harvey of the IV eleven, who aaa ata
tloned at end during the latter part of
the season, began to show some ability in
that line before Thanksgiving.
The for maid pas, a aaa satipfsotorily
demonatrated last year, when ueed by
killed players can be worked effectively.
but when handled by an Inaccurate and
fumbling eleven, will often be employed
with fatal results to the offense. In the
l e formed game a good kicker may save
hia team from defeat, but many times when
B cennot score the forward pasa and the
Opposing eleven of two evenly matched
contestants has none, the former la likely
to make the atronger bid for the victory.
Thla waa the case in the Nebrafka-St-Loui
game on Thnkgtving. Th Corn-
cuskera had no effective forward pasa.
while the Catholic employed one that was
used repeatedly for long gains and which
resulted In mora than one touchdown being
scored for the Mound City warriors. If
accuracy In using the forward paaa titn
needed laat season It surely will be re
quired thia fall
tale Altered This Tear.
The forward pays rule has been altered
thia aeaaon. Under Ha provisions last
season any player of either side could
secure the ball after It had been legally
touched. The revision allows only the
player of the passer's aide who first
legally touched the ball to recover it until
It has been touched by an opponent. This
change greatly Increase the dangers from
fumbling, for the defense hss been given
greater opportunltiea to get a ball that
has been dropped by the player to whom
It waa thrown. The chancea for a player
of the passer's side to recover the bsll
after It ha fallen from hla hands are
minimised.
This change means that ail of the Corn
busker, players must he drilled to handle
the ball much better than they did last
year. Fumbling must be done away with
as far as possible, and an ability to ac
curately pass the ball acquired. Some of
the members of the team wfll becom
skilled In handling the ball by a little
practice, but with others Coach Cola will
hav to spend much time in drilling them
how to hold on to it. Fumbling and in
accurate pasting, auch aa characterised the
play of the Cornhuskers at times last
aeasoa. is very likely ta prove fstal un
der revised rules. Often a pass when
handled right will bring a touchdown for
tha defense. On the other hand, the
fumbling of a pass by either team t liable
to glv the other aid a chance to score.

Late la September.
ITHACA. N. T- Aug. 3 The practice of
the Cornell font ban squad will start later
than usual this season. According to the
present plana of th coaches th work win
not start until September E, which Is
about a week later than has been the cus
tom In recent years. This change Is said
to be due to tha fact that heretofore tha
warm weather Of early September has ine
terfered with th preliminary work and
has really retarded the later development
of th levea instead of being an advantage.
The outlook for a fast team at Cornell is
none too good and th coaches hav de
