Foot Ball Men Are Arriving at Nebraska Uni individual Practice is All that Will Be Permitted Until Registra tion Day. LINCOLN. Neb., Sept. . tSpeclal.) Fall practice for the Cornhuxker foot ball squad of 1910 will open Monday, but tho early arrivals will not use the new field. Owing to a ruling made by the Mis souri valley conference, squad practice Is prohibited until the opening of registra tion. Under this ruling the foot ball men must practice alone, and each will choose some appropriate grounds for running, kicking the ball, and a little preliminary work in tackling. There is no disposition at Nebraska to disregard the ruling of the conference, but registration starts late at the Cornhusker school and the squad members are anxious to condition them selves to be ready for hard work when Coach Cole arrives- Cole will reach Lincoln September 20, coming direct from his ranch in western Montana. Registration does not start until September 22, so that the first practice has been called for opening day of regis t ration. 'Sid" Collins, the big lineman on the team of 1908, who returns to the game this fall, ts scheduled to arrive from Montana Saturday night. Collins will participate in the preliminary training. Captain Jack Temple arrivel Thursday. Other members of the aquad who are already on hand are Minor, halfback; Haskell, quarterback Chauner, end; Hornberger, guard; Sturmer, guard, and Frank, halfback.
