Sept. 13 Registration In the public schools ha rinsed and showed that tliis year there will be an Increase of a ix. vi t S0 0U0 fvuplls over last yeat. The year's regular to fill nine positions on the team this season, and three other "N" men of 1907, besides a great quantity of eligible new material to draw from for ths two remaining place. The way the lineup had been planned was center, Col lins; right guard, Frum; right tackle, Chal oupks; ' right end. Johnson; left guard, Ewlng; left tackle, vacant; left end. Cap tain Harvey; quarter, Cooke; right half. Minor; left half, vacant; fullback, Kroger. These men all played good foot ball last year and their return to the game this fall would aur ?7e1raka another winning team, for there are many candidate who can fill tha two vacant posltione, left tackle and loft half, very aatlafactorlly. The talk about loaing Collin and Cooke upset all plana and put the athletic mentors to peculating aa to how to fill their placea In caae the two Cornhuskers fall to come back. Collin at center and Cooke at quarter, were two of the strong points of the team last fall. Collin, although It wa hi flrt year on the' team, played all of hi op ponent to a standstill, and great thing were expected of him this season. Cooke running ability and hi agile workon th offense made him one of tfte belt quartera in the west and ron him a place cn the All Mlasourl valley eleven. There are sev eral Cornhusker foot ball aspirants who could take the places of these two players, but they hardly would be able to fill them a atlfaetorlly thla seaaon as the two veterans would. To try for Collin's por tion at center in caae ha doe not return to school there would be Fcrrin. a 1907 "N" man. who was a substitute for that pt sit ion last year and who played tackle In. the St., Louis game Thanksgiving day after Chaloupka had been removed on ac count of an Injury to hi wrist. Perrin Wka alow, however, ar.d eome cf the new men might heat him out for center. roealale gklfllBgr ef Mea. In the absence of Cooke, Bentley, a sub stitute at quarter last season who haa been with the aquad at Lead this summer, would stand a good chance of being chosen to fill the vacant position. Minor could be shlftej to quarter and hie place at right half filled by Hart, another "N." man of last season. Or Captain Harvey could be played at Minor's former, poeltlon and Beltaer,. who won hi Initial In the Mlnneaota gam laat aeaeon, could be stationed at the captains place at left end. How well the changes would work out la conjectural. It la certain however, that the loa of Collin and Cooke would be a hard blow to Nebraska thla fall no matter how their places were filled The position of assistant coach hag boen offered to Charles Borg, captain of the 19C Cornhusker eleven, and he Is thinking Vf accepting It. Borg arnvea in uncum tst week from Panama, where he has been for two years working for the gov ernment. He tjult the university before he finished his law course and now la talking of attending schocl Ma year and exeig h! degree. In ci.; can arraage hi work in Panama VitT-tl do this and also become aaslstant f fcing" pole this fall. While at Nebraska Sorg played a pheno menal game, at ceT.tar and was rated a aa All Wetern tar in hi last year. H understood foot ball thoroughly and If he accept the ssaiatant coach position, ia expected to be a great aid to "King" Cole. A force of men will be act o work at Antelope park thla week to get the field ready for iU foot ball contests. The' grid iron will be laid out to run east and west near the bleacher oa the north elde of the grounds. An addition will be built to the grandatand on the eaat end, cover ing a space of forty feet between the bleacher and tha present grandstand. In front of the bleacher and does to the gridiron will be constructed1 several rows of boxes fur reserved seals. These will b one ties high. On the side of the grid- Iron additional bleaohers will be erected. A press stand ..will be placed on either the north or south' side of the ground. The fields and Improvement, with the-ex ceptlon of the new bleachers will be ready for the opening game of the season with Peru, September 26. - WASHINGTON ; HAS GOOD COACH Far Away School Looks for Maay Bis Games. SEATTLE, Wash., . Sept. 12. Foot ball talk ha become the topic of the day at Pullman, where Washington State college la located. Walter Rhelnschlld, a former Michigan player and aaslstant to Coach Yost for a year, has been selected from forty-six applicant a the Washington coach this fall and his methods are ex pected to bring considerable success to the eleven.

' Date are pending for the game with the University of Montana and tha Butte School of Mines and there Is no reason to doubt that these games will be played.

Bept. 18. The squad of foot bailers of the University of Penn sylvania haa received an addition In th arrival of Charles Pike, who weigh 10 pounds. Pike lies been two yesrs In ths university, but thla 1 the first year he na oeen eligible to play with tho vsrr.lty eleven. He entered college In 1908 from Swarthmore, having played tackle on that team the year before.

Although a big man, pike Is fast on bis feet, having negotiated the 101 yards In less than eleven seconds. It I not known definitely what position Pike will fill, but it Is likely he will try for right guard, the place left open on the line by the graduation of Gua Zlegler. Athletics at Wealeyea. INVERS1TY PLACE, Neb., Sept. 11 (Speclal.) With the return of Prof Z. G. Cierenger, of the department of physical education, from the east, the athletic spirit Is beginlng to fill the atmosphere of the campus. Prospects for hockey and basket ball are exceedingly bright for several high school athletes have signified their inten tions of entering the Wesleysn, especially since It has shown signs of renewed athletic life. It has been several yeara since the Wesleyan had foot ball team, but Judging from the student talk that la heard, much enthualaim la being manifested In that Una,. Should it be determined that the Wesleysn Is to be represented upon the grldlorn this fall, it Is most fortunxae In that Its physi cal director was a star upon the grldlorn as recent as three year ago. Cierenger Is a product of the State University of Indiana and for two yeara waa picked by Coach 8tagg of Chicago aa an all weatern half back. Shermaa Marts Game. ROME, N. Y., Sept. 12.

Jimmy Austin, Omaha' fleet-footed third baseman, who haa been drafted by New York Americans, will be missed In the Western leagus perhapa as much as any other one rlayer who could leave It at this time. Austin, aside from being a great ball player and a noticeable one on the diamond at home and abroad, Is pop ular and peculiar among the men off the diamond. He Is one of those bsll players about whom Interesting things can always be wrlttep. Incidentally Austin's going to New York serve to emphsslse the notable success Omaha has had of late years on third bsse. Schlpke of Washington and Perrtng of Cleveland, were developed on the third corner In Omaha and Austin Is admittedly faater than either of these men. But prior to Schlpke's coming, Omaha was up agalnat It for a third baseman. Eddie Hlckey had made a faithful effort, but did not succeed In that position. Schlpke came and de veloped Into a sensation and when he left Omaha thought It wa ruined. Then came Peering and he aeemed to have It on Bchlp In a way, but Auatln ha been here two season and he I generally con ceded to be the peer of either of the other men. Marks of Hla Distinction. Austin not only play hi position with great fidelity, but hi throwing, base run ring and of late his batting, mark him as a distinct star. He covers a wide ter ritory and Is always thinking of some thing to do next. A headier player never wore an Omaha uniform. He Is crafty, cunning and resourceful. His development of the daring trick of going from first to third on a bunt serves well thla point. Of course his wonderful speel as a runner facilitates this play, but more than his speed Is hi headwork. With Belden at bat he haa worked this trick time and tlm again. He geta a big lead oft first and I well on his way to second when the ball Is struck, then, if he sees the third baBe man, .who went to get the bunt is not back on tha base ha tear for third and generally make It. ' In the laat couple of months since he has been batting left-handed he has be come one of the terrors of the league to pitcher. Hi batting 1 regular and timely. Three home runs In aa many weeks with two men on bases Indicate something aa to his hitting. And It Is Interesting to note that all these home runa were hits inside the field, the man' marvelous speed putting him across the plate where most men could have gotten no further than third. Other players In the league have come to have a wholeaome regard and respect for Auatln. He ia not a big man, though a perfectly made man. He stands about five feet seven inches and weighs about 130 pounds and Is a specimen of athletic per fection. By trade Jimmy Is a ship bulldef and this goes to argue for the soundness of hi muscle. Ask Kalasky or Elvrert. Zalusky, the giant catcher of Denver, and Bill FJwert, who used to play third for lueblo, either one forty pounds heavier than Austin, can testify aa to the substance of which he Is made. One time last season Zalusky . took a . notion he would root Jimmy off third and make the base. He was on a -ulead run and came steaming Into third like a mad bull, the ball Just ahead of him. But Jimmy didn't tumble. He crouched low and put the ball on Zalusky when he arrived and for the next two months Zalusky roomed In a Denver hospital, while Austin kept right on play ing ball. Elwert's experience was similar. He, too, got the worst of a collision with Jimmy and boarded at a hospital for a while after ward. On the diamond Austin Is a fighter, but a clean fighter. He contends for a point as king as there Is a chance to get it, and then some, but off the diamond he Is the most quiet man on the team. He la exemplary In hi habit and I the old maid of the club. This I due to hi distinct domestio qualities. He carries with him on the road a kit of sewing Implements needles, thread, buttons and safety pins. If one of the players rip hi pant, or tear off a but ton, or happena to do any other such acci dent, It'a "Jimmy fix this." and Jimmy gets d..n his workbasket and goes to work. Many times after a game he will be busy in the hotel or club house for an hour repairing busted garments, for him self ' or other players. Not long ago Joe Dolan, playing with Des Moines, slit his trousers sliding Into third bsse. He walked over to the Omaha players' bench, where Hall was sitting. "Where's Jimmy's needle and thread?" Jo asked Hall. "Here," and Hall dug Into the w, r' batket, got a needle about three lncnea long, threaded with string and performed the role of Austin himself. Jimmy stood at third laughing. Another stunt of Austin on the horns grounds 1 to wash his suit after each game. Ills Wife Is Hla Pal. Austin's closest and most constant friend and companion Is Mra Austin. Whenever possible they are together. Hie wife Is known at Vinton Street park for the sest she occupies in the grandstand. She has missed few games in the two years her doughty husband has been here. She Is a scientific fsn and a critical one. Jimmy never makes a play that escapes her eye and when the game la over and they go home for their evening together, they talk over the details of the game. The little woman offera suggestions to her husband and more than once he haa acted on her auggeatlon without regretting It. Auatln Is about 6 years of age. His home Is In Clevelsnd, where he haa worked at the ship building trade for seversl year while not playing ball. He has been In professional ball five years, and in that time has lost Just seven days. That waa from a apralned ankle when a member of the Dayton (O.) team. In his two seasona Ih Omaha he haa not lost a day. His regularity Is due partially to the careful treatment ho gives himself. He neither smokes, chewsnor drinks and Is regular in retiring and aris ing. And if he gets a bruise and he Is sometimes a aolld mass of them he trests it scientifkslly and gets rid of It quicker than would most players. His whole soul Is put into nis business of playing ball. Haw Ho Hears the News. The team was In De Moines when Austin got the news that he was drafted by New York. Gonding picked up a morning paper after breakfast, when ths boy were sitting out In front of the hotel and read the newa '.Hey. Jimmy," he called. "you're drafted." "Ia that so, who got met" wii Austin quiet response. And then all the boys gathered around to congratulate him. He didn't have much to Bay. but of course was pleased. In a way.

Dick and Jimmy have been cloae friends for two years. What Jmmy said was, chiefly, that while he appreciated the recognition paid him he would rather stay In Omaha another season, as he felt that by on more year he could bring his batting up to a Btandard where he would be able to take his place In a big league with a greater degree of certainty. But he said If he went to New York he would go with the Idea of success and not failure. Well, he'll not fail. v ' son. 1 plre: K PHIL ' Totala 32 I 14 II I Batted for Dorner in the eighth.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12,-There are several reasons why the fourteenth national amateur golf championship at Garden City, September 14 to 19. Is likely to prove the most memorable In the history of Ameri can golf. It will mark the flret time in the history of the game here that the amateur event haa been held twice over the same courses ln the east. The amaturs gathered at Garden City, In 1900, but since then many change have taken place. In fact, the course ha been o lengthened and changed lnce then as to render any comparison of oorea of little value. The playing condition for thla year affair are o totally different from any thing previously attempted that a feeling of curiosity as well aa Interest naturally awaits the putting of the new Ideas to actual test. It Is a number of year sin thlrty-alx-hole matches have prevailed. although few deny .that the method In question is by far the fairest. In order to bring about the desired change Weil known tours set to work aa lar oack a a year ago and in a comparatively short tipace of time a method possessing so many uood qualities waa aevised that loo of tin. irouniry's bBt players hastened to sign .heir names to a petition asking ' fur luc now arrangement to go Into elfecl at the -eMo tournament.
