' For the flrat time In years Crelghton
"promises to have a 'varsity team which
will be first clese from every standpoint.
A wealth of heavy and faet material prom
ise to b on hand, and this will ba ac the
disposal of coachea. capable of moulding
It Into gridiron team, which should bring
, out to advantage the new game. Genuine
Msoaehlng has been a rare article In Omaha,
fcut thi vear no exnense has been snared
j'fey Crelghton university to obtain men who j
set only know the game, but who have
also that necessary ability of Imparting
.their knowledge to others. It la safe to
jiiuma even before the season has given
proof of results, that the game which will
be put up by the Crelghton aquad "111 be
foot ball aa It should be played. The
coaches selected to effect this result are
aot the products of a single school, but
.Jhave been tutored In the game by men
- whose names are household words In the
foot ball world.
' Coach Kenney' Csrrer.
Coach Clarence Kenny began his foot
ball career at Marquette university, at that
time a college, under Jerry Riorden, the
" well-known guard of Wisconsin university.
He had Imbibed his knowledge of the game
from Phil King, who knew the tricks of
the old game In such wise that he made
. the eastern teams stand up and take notice.
His recent Instructor was Coach Eddie
. Cochems, who has guided the destiny of
i Hie St. Louis university team for the least
three years. This wizard of the game
found an apt scholar. In "Pike" Kcnney.
Many of his Intricate plays wheeled upon
'Tike" as their pivot, As these were not
- few In number, but were arranged to suc
. ceed each other in startling and apparently
; never ending rapidity. It speaks well for
' the foot ball genius of Dr. Kenney to have
been in them on the ground floor. In the
forward vass he took a prominent part,
acting as the receiver for the long passes
. of Schneider and Robinson.
. During the last two years In which the
St. Louis team has been advnrtlng steadily

Asalatant Also a Ml
W. J. Schneider, the associate coach at
Crelghton will divide the labors and honors
"with Dr. Kenney. Upon him will devolve
much of the hardest work of the season.
; Personally the two men are widely differ
ent. "Jack" Schneider has elevated him
self full three Inches above the alx-foot
" mark, while "Pike" Kenney, If built on
less skyscrsplng lines, boaata. of more
'breadth of beam. A recent press notice
' fays "Tall Jack Schneider will long be re
membered for his great plunging through
the line. He hardly ever failed to gain
the few necessary yards, when the other
'members of the team had failed and his
place . at fullback will be a hard one to
' fill." . He has had the enviable fortune of
playing on the Wisconsin university team,
'when Art Curtis, assisted by Eddie
Cochems dealt out the foot ball lore. Prior
to Uhls Coach Btagg of Chicago has de
veloped his athletic talent In track work.
When Cochems went to St. Louis to as
sume charge of athletics there Jack
Schneider followed, and for two years has
stood head and shoulde? over his team
mates as they romped down the fields for
goals. No line was able to withstand suc
cessfully his plunging bucks and as field
captain hl head work was equal to every
emergency.
Salved the Forward Pass.
The Importance of the forward pass haa
bet'n demonstrated In the last two years.
It has practically revolutionised foot ball.
Tet,ths difficulty experienced In ; hurling
such an awkward thing as a foot ball
thrcugh the air. made coaches liesltata to
adopt the Innovation. Others attempted
It, but used the underhand throw or wide
arm sweep to propel the ball. They soon
discovered that accuracy and speed could
not be had by these means, and If they
used the forward pass. It entered the game
as a aide issue and was' not relied upon
aa safe ground gainer. When reports came
In of the ball being cast from forty to fifty
ards and startling accounta of bullet-like
passes sent on a straight line and projected
with a spiral motion. It all sounded much
like a fairy tale. Tet It proved to be a fact
nd not fiction and to the west must he.
given the credit of discovering the proper
method of handling the fi rward pass. At
least the pars ured In the west seems to be,
more successful than that employed In
the east, and so widely doe It differ from
Its eastern relative that It hardly belong
to the same family. It la cast to a single
ma in such a manner that the receiver
need not lessen his apeed, while In' the eaat
the receiver la usually guarded bv a part
of his team and Is stationary when he
aatchea the ball. Moreover, It la not
thrown high la the air. but la aent In a
direct line. In as far as the distance will
allow. ' '
St. Louis found Its best exponents of
thte true form of the forward pass in Jack
Schneider' and Brad. Robinson. In prac
tice they have thrown the ball over fifty
yards, j while the longest pass made in a
gam was forty-eight yards.

OVAHA WINS WITH RHODES
Champions Ttke Last Game of the
Pueblo Series.
AUSTIN AGAIN STARS AT BAT
GeteThree Hlto In Four Times lip
Visitors Throw Scare Into Home
Team la Seventh with
Thrao Rana.
Omaha, 3; Pueblo. 3.
One csrtain Willie Rhodes was back
in form Saturday and he stopped the
onward rush of the Pueblos and the
downward slide of the Champions. His
little right arm was In flinging form and
he had his speed, with the result that for
half a dozen Innings It looked like a no
hit game. Hoggle made the first hit In
the sixth, but It did not count. Then Mr.
Rhodes seemed to tire a little,; and al
though he took a fresh piece of gum at'
the start of every Inning, the Omaha fans
were pn the anxious seat. Three hits were
made off his delivery and three runs
resulted, but that was all the scoring the
Pattersons could do, as Rhodsey tightened
up In the pinches, and the game was safe.
Galgano was twirling against the
Champs, but he turned out to be easy,
and Omaha had a lead of five before
Mr. Rhodes relaxed. The game had sev
eral bright features, the leading one of
which was the wonderful performance of
James Austin, which he simply continued
from the day befcre. He and Beldeh had
acquired a little team work which thy
were so stuck on that they tried It out
and then they tried it again. It consisted
of Austin making a hit and Beldcn sacri
ficing him on for a' base or two. Friday
Austin made four hits in four times up.
and on three of these occasions did Eel
den sacrifice him to second or third,
Jamea always taking two if there was
the slightest chance. Saturday James
made three hits In four times up, and on
two of these times Delden sacrificed him
along. That made; a record for Austin
of seven hits In seven times at bat. He
missed out on his last time up. If the
New York Highlanders had a man or two
two doing that for them this summer they
would not now be so comfortably ensconsed
In last place. Many Omaha fans think
Austin will be able to set the league on
fire next year, for he aurely has it In
him.
Aostla Starts It OH.
Austin made the first run In the sec
ond inning by a hit Belden'a sacrifice,
Franck's fly and a passed ball. Rhodes
made the second hit himself In the third
inning, it being a corking three-bagger.
Mr. Mattlcka had to shag the ball to the
fence. Rhodes made a hit the first time
he cam to bat for Omaha two months
ago and has not made a' hit since. He
made that three-sarker above mentioned
and King drove him home with a single.
The game was nailed dowq in the fifth
inning, when Rhodes started the good
work again, this time by a base on balls.
Fisher did not do much but get out, but
King did a little better, aa he hit one to
8pencer, which that chap dropped. A
wild pitch advanced them a base, when
along cam Chicken Autrey. Chicken is
always willing to do what he can to help
along, so he just copped out a two
sacker that scored two. Welch fooilej
his attempt, but Austin drov a hard one
to left and Autrey trotted horn with the
third run of the Inning. That waa the
third hit for Austin of the day.
Eight men faced Mr. Rhodes In the
eventh Inning when the Patterson
made three runs. Mattlcks opened with
a single and stole second. Rhodes then
filled the base by passing Clark and
Miller. Corhan scored two of them by
Creighton's Foot Ball Coach and
.J' xf a
DR. CLARENCE KENNET.
a hit toward Welch, but a couple of good
throws nailed Miller at third. Mltie flew
out and Galgano walked.- Quite careless
of Rhodes to walk Oalgano. The battle
scarred veteran, Hoggle, then stepped to
the plate and put one out of Belden's
reach for two sacks, scoring Corhan, but
leaving Oalgano on third. Spencer
grounded one to Franck and the inning
was over.
It was . a great day for . the home
knocker
Denver comes for two games thla after
noon and two again tomorrow, which Is
Labor day.

LINCOLN BREAKS LOSING STREAK
Winning Has Scored In Ninth on
Wild Pitch.
LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. B.-The Green
backers broke their losing streak today
and won a closely contested game from
the Boosters by a score of 4 to 8. School
master Jones pitched his last' game of
the season for Lincoln, and was batted
out of the box in two Innings. Johnson,
who succeeded Jones, twirled one of his
beet games of the season, stopping the
hitting and holding the Boosters to two
slnsles In seven Innings. The Oreen
bacekis won the gam In the eighth, when
Bomar passed Henry. Choulnard failed
to cover second on Henry's steal, and the
runner went to third, scoring on Bomar's
wild pitch.
The Labor day game scheduled for Lin
coln have been transferred to Sioux City,
where the Greenbarkers also are billed
for a double-header tomorrow. Guy Green
refused to ask hi rrlppeld playera to
meke the Jump back to Lincoln, which
would have kept them on the road twenty
two hour, with only five hour rest be
tween days. The score:
LINCOLN.

For the last month Captain Harvey and
Right Tackle Chaloupka have been gruel
ing themselves In stiff practice at their
home In Wilbur, and are In th pink of
condition for the. fall gridiron work. Har
vey ha hardened hi muscles and report
that he ha gained great strength by hard
work all summer. He . say he ha also
been doing some excellent punting' and
drop kicking. Chaloupka conveyed the glad
new thst hi wrist, which wa broken th
the Nebraska-St. Louis game Thanksgiving,
ha mended and is stronger than ever.'
The big tackle says he will be In the gam
this fall with more strength than last sea
son and predicts that Minnesota will fall
before the Cornhuskers In the annual gam
In October. He declare nothing can keep
Nebraska from whipping the mighty
Gophers. It wa done once, he argues,1
and the performance can be repeated.
Train Daring; Vacation. '
Halfback Minor and Rlghtend Johnson,
both of whom were with the Cornhusker
quad at Lead, S. D., thl summer, report
that th player up there have acquired a
valuable training and that all of them are
ready to enter a hard gridiron struggle at
a moment' notice. Minor did some long
distance running In order to -strengthen hi
wind, and hi exhibition in the 440 'yard
dash at the state fair meet thi week,
when he led a . fast bunch of sprinter
across the' tape by several yards, showed
that he ha accomplished hi aim. 'John
son worked 'out at end on the Lead team
and expect to have little trouble In mak
ing ' hi old position on th varsity . thl

material from the freshman team of last
fall to work with in building up a strong
eleven.-'
Among th men who showed up well on
the second team last fall and received
favorable mention by Assistant Coach Peck
m his review of the work of the "scrubs.".'
were Benson, Votaw, Haskell, Wolcott,
Temple, Benson, fierger, Sommerhalder,
Birkner,- Mager and Pearson. Temple will
not be eligible this fall on account of
failure In hi studies last spring, but th
rest of the men are not delinquent and ars
expected to try for the varsity. Benson,
an Omaha boy and former Bellevue stsr,
played a remarkably fast game at end on
the second team last fill and ha been
regarded as a strong. possibility for an end
position on the varsity this season. He
wat one of the fastest men In getting down
on a punt seen on - Nebraska field last
year. Sommerhalder la a former Lincoln -High
school, who weighs. over JC0 pounds,
and who play a. powerful game at guard.
Laat year he waa one of the hardest prop
osition the regular team had to deal with.
'Wolcott . Promising; One.
Wolcott. has been with the squad at
Lead thl summer getting Into form to
mak a bid for a back field position on
th. varsity. On the acrubs laat year, he
dtaplayed a great deal of agility In work
with the ball. Thl season I sure to see
him doing some sensational work. Birkner

four year, but wa not eligible for ths
varsity last fall and took a position on th
second eleven'. He 1 speedy and. tinder

soma whirlwind ability.
Th other member . of th "erub"

team on of the' strongest second elevens
Nebraska had had for several year. Their
eligibility to th varsity thl season will
be a great aid to "King" Cola In his work
of building up a powerful Cornhusker ma
chine. . .
Coach Peck, who wa assistant to "King"
Cole last year, will not return this fall and
another experienced foot ball man will hav
to be elected to take hi place. Th (elec
tion of hi uccessor will probebly be'mtd
within the next two or three week. Th
asslstsnt coach will be a former Nebraska
foot ball player, the . Cornhusker athletic
authorities having decided to try. the grad
uate coaching ayatem for' a year on th
second coch. It I rumored that the posi
tion will be filled by a player who was on
th Cornhusker eleven several years ago
and not by any of the recent graduate.
Omaha Gibi Approved.
The . scheduling of the Ames-Nebraska
game for Omaha November 7. while In
some cases causing a little disappointment
among the Uncoln follower of foot ball,
ha In general met with approval. Es
pecially haa the action been favorably re
ceived among. a majority of the university
atudants living in Lincoln. Each fall a
large number of the students like to make
a trip with ''varsity to some other city for
a game and every summer look forward to
taking such a trip. Until last year many
of them Were able to journey to Minneapo
lis. Omaha , and Lawrence or other cities,
but when th railroad refused to give rates
for the foot ball trips these student were
kept from going on the longer trip and
were keenly disappointed. About the 'only
trip most of them have felt like making is
the one to Omaha. The fare to th metrop
olis even at th regular rate I not much
nd nearly all of th ctudent caa Afford
to go. Last fall thr wa no annual (ana
