The most brilliant season' In the history - ( Omaha High aohool foot ball has just elneed. There ara manr things Connected with tha rear's record for which the stu dents ah mild be proud. In tha first place, a, better spirit of portmanshlp has been exhibited br tha team and pupils than ever before, - VlItlng teams bava been treated fairly and mora than that bava been enter tained royally. Each team that cams to Oman waa given a reception br the tu dent and althsr takan to the theater or given a banquet Bucb courteous treatment of visitor la to ba commended and Is a aura fodloatlon that Omaha High school baa tha right Idea of Ita athletic relations With other . school. There has been a rpirtt of fair plajr on tha part of both mem bers of tha team and the rooters whlth was noticeable. Whenever a member of the Visiting team waa Injured tha Omaha root era would ascertain bla name and give him three cheers as lustily as though ha be longed to their own squad. Tha members f tha team played hard and fought for ovary point, but they were clean In their playing and fair In all they did upon the (laid. The team la to ba congratulated as much for ita conduct aa for Ita winnings. "I am proud of the boys not alone be cause of their splendid list of victories, but because of their conduct aa well," said Coach Ban Cherrlngton to giving hla opin ion of tba aeaaon'a work. "X have never In tha five years I have been coaching had a finer eat of boys under me. They ahowed themselves, to ba gentlemen both on and ff tba Cold. They demonstrated that a team can play clean and play fair and till win. They won tha support of all Wrho saw them play both at horns and abroad. Z am also Immensely pleased with tha support which the school gave tha team. Ita attitude toward the visiting teams waa commendable. We ara Indebted largely to tha Boosters' club for the finan cial auooeea of tha season and I wish to xpraea my gratitude for Ita untiring ef fort which made tha result possible. Tak ing everything 'into consideration, I up poaa tola la tha most successful season the fctgn aohool baa had." ! Team Good, Too. Tba) second team la In a measure respon ' albl for tha strength of tba first. It waa Ita gritty playing against the first team boys during tba mid-week scrimmages that developed tha latter so rapidly. Without a good aeoond team to practice against the first team men would Bluff, but that was Impossible this season. TlVj reserves wore capable of giving the regular a hard run at any time and there waa no chance for luffing. It man on the first squad let down In bla playing the second team would run over him and be would either have to brace up or have another player take his place. The reserves bad a bard schedule, every game being with teama which outweighed them many pounds to the man. Coaslder . lng this fact their record waa very good, although somewhat unusual in the number bf tie fames. Out of six games played they loot one and won one.

Captain McKlaaey the Start. IfoKUnney Is considered by many to be the best half back that ever represented (he Omaha High sen col. He Is an all around player, belnr equally strong on 4ftnee and offense. There have been several men on the team who were brilliant runners, but none who could equal him In all departments of the game. Aa a lrrie masher be la a marvel. With the smallest possible opening ba Is through and away before the forwards can touch him. Many times this aeason he broke through the line and ran free for a touchdown. He la dually strong on running the ends and lit .sen field dodging. On the defense he ' a the mainstay of the team.

(Special.) The all-Iowa interscholastlc team of IBM, as picked above by Frank P. Clarkson of this city, would be heavy and fast, able to go the long route In the old-style play or able to meet the best of them In the more open modern game. . The men have been picked, not. for momentary flashes of brilliancy, speed and headwork, but for consistent play all season. . Center This was the weakest spot In the class A . teams this year, and there were no such men as Miller of Ida Grove and Brown of East High, last year. Buehler of Le Mars has been a comer for. three years, ' and on the showing he has made Is entitled to first honors. . . Bird Is given the second tram place and had he played all year as ho did against . West he would have been a contender for first. Holmes of East High Is strong In this position. . Guards Ankeny of East High has been Invulnerable; and the other guard ia given to Rheinfrank. of Dubuque. The. latter has played tackle this year, but at guard would be a wonder. Mattlson of Oekaloosa played a great game against West High and Scott of Ida Grove Is a classy player, who will be heard from on future teams Tackles Krlck of Ida Grove. and Clinlte of West High have first call for these places.. Clinlte played, full most of the season, but is a born tackle, and these two make a. wonderful pair. . ' Both men have great spirit and carrying the ball are woe fully hard to atop. . Elliott of East and Reeves of North High have played .con sistent ball of a high grade and Aton pf Council Bluffs and Schmidt ' of Marshall town are not far behind. Such men are only kept off the first team of the all-Iowa by others ' of 1 extraordinary ability . and genius. ' ' Ends The Iowa teams have been strong at end thia year, and Welch and Horn picked for the first team are a great pair. Jones of North High played quarter this year, but his real place is end, and for a man of his weight the state has not pro duced his equal. Pat Coffey of Le Mars played quarter against East High,' but his real place la end. He la one of the best In the state. Forbes cf Ida Grove and Kuehl of Davenport, placed at end on the third team, are -classy players, great on defense, but not up to the others on of fense. McNamara of Dubuque has played a brilliant game at end all aeason and Cap tain Brown of Cedar Rapids Is one of the best the stato haa turned out. A. Lam bert played a great end fcr Newton and he comes by It naturally, as he Is a cousin of the great Bl Lambert of Amea. Scott of East High and Cramer of Ortnnell are ends of more than ordinary speed and ability. Quarter-Curry of Ida Grove and Bredi mus of East Higti are a wonderful pair and hard to choose between, but Curry tut generaled Bredimua in their meeting. Bredlmue is better carrying the ball, but when you come right down to It there is a grave question In my mind as to whether or not the quarter of a great team should ever carry the ball. For all around work throughout the season the first place is given to Curry, with Bred'mus an eyelash behind. Fetters of Marshalltown. Williams of Cedar Rapids, Cnmmnrk of Newton, King of Iowa Falls and Hussey of Du buque have all played star game. McBane of West High and Grnson of Council Blurts have shown flashes of brilliant rlay, whtlo Wutson of Oskalooaa Is a comer in this position. . Halves Tou must give the two halves to Ben Todd of Ida Grove and Ab Ham ni'ltt of West Dea Molm and take off your hat when you do It for they are undoubtedly a pair In a class by them selves, standing head and ahoulden above the pick of the atate. Todd made 12S yards against .West High. Ill jgalnat Marshalltown, IJ against East High and 10? against Council Bluffs, mostly by line and off-tackle plunges. He Is a long and accurate forward passer, but la the bigger games Ida Grove did not rely on this style of play, and for passing Ab Hammltt has the honors Todd and Hammltt are both tireless, can stand up under injuries an play when nine out of ten would be vu their backa, and you bave got to glva It to thera aa the big ' .V. J, t J -1 ft . L 11 'it- . 4 4 - SQUAD FROM WHICH pair of the year n the Iowa high schools. Scanlan of Council Bluffs and Mathews of Dubuque are great, and Scanlan In particular Is one of the- fastest . backa ever turned out in the west. That there have been many classy backs this year Is shown when Scanlan and Mathews have to be content with ' second team honors and men like Pllcher of ! Ida Grove and Balrd of East High have to drop back even further, while men like Lively of North High,' Gate of East High, Martin of Grlnnell, Clark and Fleck of Newton, Saunders of West High and Adelquist of Davenport are not . even placed. All of these unplaced men Jiave played brilliant ball, but tflls year Iowa nas seen some very classy high school foot ball, and to be placed on either the first, second or third All-Iowa team la an unusual honor. Fullback Kirk of Marshalltown has the call on this place, and whllo he haa not played aa ateady a game as he might, he Is doubtless the best full In the state this season. As a line plunger he Is .a demon; on drop kicks he Is accurate and on punts he la of more than ordinary ability, although Inclined to balloon his punts and leave out the spiral feature. Kirk'a one fault has been over anxiety in' taking; the ball, making costly fumbles, but hla great work far outahlnea his mis takes and he Is entitled to - first place. Not far behind Kirk stands Roger of Knoxvllle, a great player, who would be greater still did he have the chance to work on a bigger schedule. Mather of Ottumwa haa. done brilliant work and is placed at fullback on the third team. We had. letters from many In southern Iowa saying this, man deserved a place on the first All-Iowa eleven. . Brophy of East High played some mighty classy ball during the aeason and some that was poor, an lnatance of the latter being hla work against Ida Grove. Moore of Cedar Raplda 1 another strong fullback and hla play against Iowa City was one of the best In the eastern half of tha state this year. ' McFarland of Keokuk la a strong and heady player, and Dudley of Council Bluffs Is the best In the western half of the atate. - Picking the All-Iowa becomes a more and more difficult task each year as the game developa and more and more high schools turn out teama of the better sort Two or three years ago there were only a few high school team In the state worthy the name, ' but now there are doxens of well-coached teams and prob ably ten that may be considered as Class A. Not one of these - team but has one or more excellent players, so that the task of culling the best Is not an easy one. BROOKS AND WILDING WIN CUP Australians Land Tennis Trophy front Americans.

POINTING LP FOR CARLISLE Coach Cole Drilling His Ken to Block Plays of the Indians. ADMITS THEY ARE WORTHY FOES Both Team Particularly Anxious to 'Win This Game on Account of Their Recent De feats. LINCOLN, Nov. 21. (Special.) When Nebraska and the -Carlisle Indians meet next Wednesday in the first post-season game ever scheduled for a great Corn husker eleven, there probably will be the most brilliant foot ball' ever seen on a Nebraska field, for both teams are In the pink of condition and In the right mood for a sensational struggle. Both elevens will be fighting to redeem laurels lost to other teams this fal and should battle In the grandest style. Nebraska wants to cover over as much as possible the blot left on Its record by the Kan sas defeat, and can do that only by win ning from the redmen. The Carllsles; humiliated by Minnesota the team that Nebraska held to a tie 'score, are anxious to defeat the Cornhuskers,- in rand ef fort to show that the victory of the Gophers was . not deserved and that the Indiana are better than any eleven In the west. i The Indians expect te win. Whatever fear they had of the Cornhuskers before Thanksgiving was . dissipated that day, when they easily conquered the famous St Louis university by the score of 17 to 0. That game gave them confidence and they regard tthe Cornhuskor game as already won. Nebraska haa never played the Indians before and they do not understand all the finer point of the famous plays uf the redmen, but Coach "King" Cole feels that he has some' trick -plays that will keep the men from the east guessing for the first few minute of the game. If he can do that his chancea of having s winning team will be excellent, for It la a well-known fact that If the In dians are outplayed and beaten In the first five or ten minutes of the game they are easy victims fo-rthe remainder of the contest. But if they get the edge on their opponents during the early part of the game there usually Is no stopping them In the rest of the play. It is with these fact before him that Coooh Cole Is preparing hi pupil for the struggle next Wednesday.- . some ot Yost's Methods. . He is training the Cornhuskers to play the greatest kind of ball for the opening fifteen minutes so that they can bea back the Indians on the offense and ropulse them' on the defense. He Is using some of the famous "Hurry Up" Tost methods and will . send his men into the game to play fast and aggressive ball for the first fif teen minutes. They will be Instructed to use every means to score on the redmen Iowa's New Foot Ball Captain H. R. GROSS. ' ; t ', it 5-.' i '. - L . . . :.; In this period, and to even wear themselves out In keeping their opponents from scor ing. If they do this "King" Cole will feel that they can hold out and play the In dian to a standstill during the rest of the contest He know that a dispirited Indian is the easiest kind of a victim and he means to take all the fight out of the redmen at the opening of the game. Nebraska haa worked for nearly two weeks In preparing for this clash with the Indians. Coach Cole saw the game be tween Minnesota and the redmen, where the latter were forced to uncover all their tricks, and he Is building up plays both on the offense and defense calculated to defeat the opponent ot the Cornhuskers. Carlisle cannot win by pounding the Ne braska line. This the Nebraska coach be lieves and he thlnka they will have to rely almost wholly on open style plays, such as the forward pass, end runs and onslde kick. It la to combat these latter that "King" Oole Is working overtime with hi men. Special defensive formation for the for ward pass and onslde kick have beerf given the Comhusxers this week and they are drilling assiduously In the use of them. Captain Harvey, Halfback Beltxer and Left End Johnson figure moat conspicu ously In these plays. Harvey and Beltser have proven themselves to be great play ers on the defense In the other big con tests cf the year and they are now being drilled to atop the elusive play of the In dian. Coach Warner of the Indian ha had the Cornhuskers carefully watched In the last two . game and know just about what to expect from the great team that "King" Cole ha turned out at the state Institution. He Is quoted a having said that Nebraska haa one of the greatest defensive foot ball machine he has heard of this fall. This I taken In 'the Corn huskar ' camp to mean that the Indian coach will have his players pointed for an epen and spectacular game. The Carllsles have a fast and versatile back field, which will be depended upon by Coach Warner to do the best work of any part of the team against the Nebraska eleven. Hauser and Balentl Will probably figure In the game aa stars. The former Is one of the hardest line plungers playing foot ball today, and 1 a most dangerous man when the Indians get down on an op ponent's twenty or twenty-flve-yard line. He smashes the line and on him Coach Warner relies for many big gains. Balentl la a sensational kicker and In one of the earlier contests of the fall won out for the Indiana by scoring four drop kicks. He has been kept out of some of the recent game on account of Injuries, but will be In shape for the go with the pupils of "King" Cole next week. Nebraska rooters and coaches are look ing for "Pip" Cocke to do some sensa tional work In this game. It will be just the kind that he I suited for, an open play contest He Is in the best shape of the season, and with the line giving him the right kind of support he will undoubt edly show up to great advantage. Special attention Is being paid to the tackling ot the Cornhuskers In getting them ready for this game. They were very weak In the ICanias game In this depart ment and were still not as (killed In it Is they should have been when Wabash waa here. The Indians are speedy, elusive and excellent dodgers', and unless the Ne braska players Improve greatly In tackling the redmen are liable to make some dan gerous run. Last . Game for Some. At least three and perhaps seven Corn buskers will play their last game ot Inter collegiate foot ball when the Nebraska and Carlisle elevens clash next Wednesday. Cantaln Harvey, Chaloupka and Cooke will conclude their three allotted years of the college sport and will not be eligible to play on a university team again. Frum, Kroger and Ewlng are all seniors, and If they take their degree at the commence ment next spring, they will become inelig ible to play at Nebraska or any other uni versity. Beltser also will probably finish his college foot ball career in thia game. He Is only a sophomore in the university and is still eligible for another year of the gridiron game, but he has signed up to play professional base bMl next summer and In case he holds to his contract he will be disqualified for further, participation In Intercollegiate athletics. Captain Harvey, Chaloupka and Cooke all played their - first Intercollegiate foot ball In the fall of 190( when Foster was coach of Nebraska. Captain Harvey had been on the Cornhusker squad for two year previous to that time and had played good foot ball with the second team, but bad tailed to show what "Buromy" Booth thought was good varsity form. In the fall of 19oa, however, he appeared for prac tice with the second team and Coach Fos ter saw that the present Cornhusker cap tain had the right materia) In him and during the fall played him at tackle and halfback. Last aeason Harvey played a sensational game at end and was elected captain tor 1!ML His play this year haa (Continued on Second Page.)

The last game of toot ball for tha season was played here on the afternoon of Thanks giving day between teama from Brooking and Huron colleges. The game waa wit nessed by a large gathering and was played almost exclusively under modern style of foot ball. The result was 17 to 0 In favor of Huron, leaving the atate championship still undetermined. It waa thought that this game would decide the question, but the matter will not be determined unless a game can be arranged between Tankton and Huron. PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 28,-ln one ut the fiercest foot ball games sen on-Franklin field this year the army vanquished the navy thia afternoon by the narrow score of t to 4 a touchdown and goal against a goal from the field. Thirty thousand pel sons saw the husky cadets from the Hudson conquer the aturdy midshipmen from the Severn In a contest that never lagged. That the naval boys were surprised at the unexpected strength of the army Is putting it mildly they were fairly overwhelmed wtlh the power ahown by the West Point cadets. The Annapolis boys entered the game practically aure of victory, while the West Point cadets only hoped to win. ' ' The army'a victory,' notwithstanding- the strength shown waa due more to a mis judged punt by on of the navy' back than to tha good work of the team; but 11 r took advantage of the mlsplay and lost no opportunity in making the score. ' .' The navy's four points, however, were earned by hard and constant playing. , Both Strong on intensive. The teams were as evenly matched as It was possible to make them. The defensive playing of both was all that could be di sired. So powerful.
