takes a pe!mlst1e outlook la Mansrer
Karl O. Eaa-or, and he haa always Issued
"beer" dope at tha open tig of tha seanm.
Immfiltl Atari Plaased.
Thar will b no delay next Tuesdsy
night. Inasmuch aa registration la lata,
tha practice haa been . delayed, and Cola
la anzloua to arganise Immediately. At
the opening praetlca, Irwkera will be as
signed, and the squad divided Into team.
Before tha end of tha week Cola expect
to haa affairs running smoothly and In
struction In the rudiments of the gam
will take place. No signal work will be
attempted until tha second week .of prac
tice. The dummy" will oecury a hit
place In the flrat week s work. Cole has
experienced difficulty In teaching the play
era to tackle, and ha Intends to remove
this trouble before the season starts.
Cola will adopt the hurry tip methods
of his teaaher. Many of the details of the
practice are stltl unsettled. Tha matter of
board for the players Is perplexlnr Eager.
The condition of tha athletic field Is also a
cause for worry. Weeds and grass have
covered the field with a thick growth
from eighteen to twenty Inches high. Some
of the weeds would make dangerous stub'
ble If the tops were cut off. Ester lies
practically decided to run a heavy roller
over the field Monday night and leave all
of the grass on It to prevent Injuries to
the players.
The manager enpecte to Issua suits lo
seventy-five players before the end of the
ft ret week. From the letters he has re'
reived Eager Is convinced that the squad
will be the largest In the history of ,the
school.
Athletic Board Meets.
The athletic board will hold the first of
ficlal meeting of the year during reglstro.
ton week and complete all arrangements
fcr the foot ball season. Tha manarer
will be authorised to place $3 season tick
ets on sale at once. Tit Board of Regents
has refused to consider tha plan for com
pulsory support and the board will now
push tha sale of tickets. The studenta
purchased slightly over TOO tickets the last
season, but Eager haa hopes of doubling
that number this year.
5 LOOM IN THE IOWA CAJtP
Only Tw a MeasWra of Last
Eleven Are Kllglala.
Year'e
IOWA C1TT, U., Sept. 18. (Special.) Of
the eleven member of last year's team of
the state University of Iowa only two re
main eligible for pkty at tha present time.
This sad state of affairs was discovered
this week, when ' tha registrar's office
opened and Investigation was made of tha
standing In scholarship of the various atli
letes. These two fortunates are Murphy
and O'Brien, but of these two, O'Brien de
dares ha will not play thla year, desiring
to bide one season In order to play during
the last year of his law term. This leaves
Murphy, the stslwart back fielder, aa tha
only candidate free from Hawley and Kel
logg, the new coaches to work with. Mark
Hyland, the captain, Is held down under a
condition, but promises that he, together
with at leaat half of the available material
will be free from scholarship restraints as
soon as examinations are given
' Exclusive of freshmen, and provided con
ditions are removed., the following men
will be available this . year: Thomas,
Wright, Bowmen, Hooley, Eh ret, Weeks,
Hyland,. Bell, Hanson and Alexander. Last
year's freahmen team, however, will furnlah
tha varsity 'With good material during the
coming season. Bennett. Curry, Clemmons,
Tricksy, Bowman and Weyrauch, together
with Von Maur, Powell. Kirk, Osier, Brook'
hart and Wlshard constitute a valuable
bunch front which to draw. Provided ths
conditions can be satisfactorily removed
Iowa will be exceptionally strong on the
gridiron this year and this one doubt alone
Is furnishing her supporters with anxiety.
Murphy, veteran of last year's team, will
be one of the strongest of tha whole outfit.
Another valuable addition will be Chase,
star end of WS'I freshmen team,- who Is
considered to he one pt the best end'a that
Iowa aver claimed. If the threat of the
collegiate board to not permit Ehret to
play through reestm of his three years at
the state normal school is carried out, tha
giant guard's position will be a hard one to
fill. HI case has not teen definitely
paaaed on, however. y
Hawley, the new coach, Is expected In

lar .practice, under the conference regula
tions will ha gv,i. on Tuesity. . Tula sea

ODDORICIN OFLEACUEN AMES
Few Fans Know How Teams Got
Their Nicknames.
PIRATES ONCE STOLE A MAN
Plttsharg Was nabbed Pirates fee
. Kldnaalna? lerhaaes New
Yerks Beraane Claats
Throat Bl Work.
Every follower of professional baae ball
knows the nicknames of th big leagne
teams, but It takes ths old-time fan to
pas an examination on their origin.
Tha Pittsburg team, commonly called
the Pirates, got that name as a result of
the kldnspptng of Louis Blerbsuer, a star
second baseman. , from the Philadelphia
Athletic away back in ISM and 1SS9. At
that time there was a working agreement
between the National league and the old
American association, by which no club in
either organization was permitted to re
serve more titan fifteen players at the
close of a season. The owners of the
Athletics, in the American association, de
sired to keep sixteen of thejr men, but as
the only way open was to leave) ona name
off the list and take a chance on no other
club picking up the player.
Accordingly the Athletic management
failed td I erne Blerbauer In Its revise list,
hoping the omission would be overlooked
and that Blerbauer would be signed over as
a new player. But a friend of the Pitts
burg club noticed that Rlerbauer's name
waa missing from the Athletic Hat, and sa
Louis wua a much-sought player at that
time tha Mend quietly told Horace Phillips,
manager of the Pittsburg club. Phillips
set to work at once, but, fesrlng that the
omission of Blerbauer'a name from the
published list of reserved players waa
merely an error, he went first to Washing
ton to get official Information from Nick
Toung, president of the National loague.
The offlclsl list of reservations showed
that the failure of Blerbauer'a name to
appear wos not a publisher's error, but
the owners or the Athletics had really
failed to reserve the player.
Hove Man Waa ftnlea.
This made Blerhauer a free agent to deal
with any club he desired, and Phillips pro
ceeded to Erie. Pa., where Louis spent the
winter months at his home. His trip was
successful. Blerbauer was willing to listen.
a tempting offer was made, and when Phil
lips returned he brought with him the
player's signed contrsct for the following
season. The whole procedure wSa ror.
feotly regular, under the rules, and Bler
bauer played In Pittsburg for many years.
but the manner of his capture caused no
end of talk In the hsse ball world, and one
Philadelphia writer referred to the aftelr
as "an act of piracy on the base ball seas.
The Plttsburgs were promptly nicknamed
the "Pirates," and the title has stuck ever
since.
The New Tork Nationals were dubbed
tha Giants by the late J. Jay Donhue In
tha summer of 1898, when that team was
making such a hard fight abalnst the Chi
cago team for the championship. It waa
tneir deeds, not their stature, aa many
rooters think, that was responsible for the
name. The New Tork American league
team was nsmed the Hlghlsnders by James
R. Price, when the Johnson organisation
entered New Tork In 1908. The president
of the olub at that time was Joseph Gor
don and the grounds were on high land.
In Scotland there Is a regiment called the
Gordon Highlanders, and the combination
of, Gordon and the high land on. which Uve
team played suggested tha name' after the
Scotch regiment.- .'.
The name Quakers, applied to the Phila
delphia . rational league team, waa natural
tecauae Philadelphia Is known aa the
Quaker City. The name Is thought to have
been first used In 1888, when Philadelphia
waa represented in two organisations, the
old American, association snd the National
league. The Athletic were In tha former
league and a team known Just as Phllsy
deiphia waa in the latter. To distinguish
Between the two the newspapers called the
isational league team tha ' Quakers," and It
is still used.
Athletics Waus rirat Teaea.
One pf the first ball teams ever oraan
Iked In this country, wnsa the Athletics of
Philadelphia, It wwa assembled In 184. and
had a place In ths National Organisation of
Base Bill Players, the first base ball
league In the country. The name has been
passed down through all the years, and
when the American loague expanded and
placed a team In ihl!adelphta, the news
papers, with the tacit consent of the club
owners, called Connie MacVe team th
Athletics, because it was a time-honored
nam. ,
Comlskey adopted the name White Stock
ings for his tesm when the American
league Invaded Chicago In 1900. I. E. San
born and Cart Green, Chicago . sporting
writers, were jointly responsible for the
shortening of the name to White Sox. They
could not make the longer one fit into the
headlines of the papers, and agreed to try
the- shorter one, with the result that It
oaught on and made a hit. The name
Cubs was also of newspaper origin at the
time Frank Seles took the management
of the Chicago National team during the
base ball war, and filled in ita ranks left
vacant by the American league raids with
youngsters, mostly of the average1 atature
or maller. Oeorge Rice, then sporting
writer, wsa the first to spring the name,
and It waa taken up generally In a short
time.
Another old nsme Is tha one by which the
Cincinnati National league team ia known.
th Reds. ' Th first uniform of the Queen
City team waa designed by George B. Ei
lard of that city in 17. It consisted of
short white flannel trousers, white shirt,
and long red stocking. This was the first
time In the history of base ball that the
player wore short trousers, and the bright
colored stpcklngs were a novelty. There
fore the team was called the Red Stocking
by Mr. El lard, but It Was afterwards ab
brevlsted to the Reds. -
Cleveland lla Miar Names.
Cleveland's team has had perhaps more
nicknames than any other team in either
big league. Cleveland's American league
team was first called the Blue, because of
the color of the traveling suits worn by
the members. This name has nsver been
used In Cleveland. The team wss alto
called the Nap. In honor of former Man
ager Lajuie, whose first nsme is Napoleon.
This was shortened to Nap, and the team
was called the Naps. Sine Deacon Mc
Uuir hits been mansger th teem hss been
sailed tits llollie MoUuirrs. Whether this
usme will stick tame only can tell, but the
chances are that when another season rolls
Hound some other b.e ball liter will
tack Knottier nsms on them. In the old
days Cleveland bed a team known as the
Spiders.
liughey Jennings Detroit Amcrttsn
league team, which won the pennant three
times running, was named the Tigers by
I'hlLp J. Rcld, city sdttor of a Det:oit news
paper. The reason were they wers the
first teiu to wjr stiiped ' stockings, lisd
ucniewu a reputation as tighter, and ths
otr.er nam by ahlrh they were known,
Detroit and Wolveilne. did not fit well
in a newspaper headline. In th Istt three

name, and it is known the eouniry over

world's championship series will long be
remembered by the fans.
Bestoa Oace "Dwves."
Tim Murnane. a veteran baseball writer,
called the Boston National League team
the Doves, after their late owner, George
Dovey. After Mr. Dovey's death, the con
trol of the club, passed Into tha handa of
his brother John, so tha name still sticks.
Previously the team was called the Bean
eaters. John I. Taylor, the owner of the
American League olub, named his team
the Red Box, as he wanted to drop the
other nicknames, Puritans and Plymouth
Rocks, applied to It Last season, when
the team made such a' great spurt that
fans thought It would beat Detroit but for
the flag, many sporting writers referred
to it ae tha Speed Boys.
I if the season of 1S99 the leading members
of the great Baltimore team, the Orioles,
and Edward Hanlon, manager, were
transferred to and amalgamated with the
Brooklyn team. In the spring of 10, Rob
ert Woolley, a sporting writer, accompanied
the team on its southern training trip,
and while on the trip he named them the
Superbas, and this suggested the name.
Although Hanlon no longer mVnages the
team, the name Is still used, despite sev
eral attempts to displace It with another,
but 1909 was probably the last year for
Its use. In the old daya tha team was
known as the Trolley Dodgers.
When Charles H. Bbberts, president of
the club, made his speech at the Pirates'
banquet in the Waldorf, New Tork.-last
December, about the national pastime be
ing In Its infancy, he not only furnished
baseball literature with a, fancy bit of
oratory, but supplied a new name for his
team. Hereafter the newspaper scribes on
the major league circulta Intend to call
the Brooklyn the Infanta,
The original St. Louis American Associa
tion team of the Von der A he and Co mis
key regime was called the Browns, owing
to the brown trimmings of the uniforms.
In 1691, when that league passed Into his
tory, the Robinsons took their Cleveland
team to 8t Louis, succeeding Von der
Ahe's Browns. They adopted white uni
forms with cardinal trimmings for their
team. The late William McHale, a St
Louis sporting writer, suggested the n&me
Cardinals, and it waa accepted and haa
been retained. When an American League
team was Disced in St. Louis, that team
was promptly dubbed the Browns, because
their uniforms were like those worn by the
old association team.
The fana of the Capitol Oty named their
team the Nationals. They were asked to
select a name for the team to displace the
Senators. The majority of the replies sug
gested the team be called the Nationals,
and Nationals It la.

play airtight ball on these occasions, and
aa rivalry of a vinegar taste exists be

It always looked for. What adds ccnsld
erable Interest to the second match is that
brothers oppose each other. Wlllard Quig

while Frank Qulgley Is at tha helm for the
happy water family. They have had three

Good Material
in the Bellevuc
Gridiron Squad
HeTy and Light Material on Hand
and x'ant Look for Cham
pionship Team.
BELLEVCE, Neb . Sept, 17.-The foot
ball training season has begun with splen
did prospects for a championship team. A
large squsd of promising material turned
out for the preliminary practice. With
ten veterans of the '08 team and an abund'
ance of now first year men to select from
the college league championship looks to
the Bellevue foot ball fans like a safe bet.
The Hne will be the strongest for years.
Captain Henry at center haa never met h's
superior In three years of gridiron experi
ence at Bellevue. The tackle and guard
positions will be hotly contested for by six
heavy, fast men, all of whom are veterans
of 'OS and '0 championship teams; Prim
rose, Rice, Fowler, Bonderson. Curtlss and
Brandt. Aselectlon from these wilt be
difficult and will form a line that, with
Barry in the central position, will be n
source of pained surprise to opposing line
plungers. The abundance of material for
the end and back field positions makes
aocurate dope Impossible so early n the
season. E. Jones and Joe Chtbaugh, '00
ends, are In the game aga'.n; Holmes,
Jamea Clabaugh and Dowden, fast experi
enced men, are candidates with them for
end and halfback positions. For quarter
back Ohman of the 0 second team, John
son, end and sub quarter '00; Stookey, sub
quarter '08. who waa not In the game last
year, and Maxwell, who comes from a
Dakota high school, highly recommended
for nerve and speed, are the candldntee to
be developed. Fred Paulson, '06 end and
sub fullback, comes back In fine condition
after a year's absence. He. has ths speed,
weight and experience, and will make
good. Curtlss and Fowler are also strong
fullback possibilities. Besides these can
didate, who have all played foot ball for
Bellevue 1n previous years, much good new
material Is on the ground. Several fast
high school teams of the state are repre
sented on the Bellevue squad, and rumors
are heard of dark horses who win figure
In the running later in the practice season.
Maatin, a first year man from Auburn,
Neb., Is showing up particularly well.
Bellevue college has secured a live, up-
to-the-minute foot ball coach In Bert
McCoy, "08 halfback and captain of the
Drake university team, and member of
the All-Iowa team for that year. Himself
a star player, he met with great success
as a coach last year, and has already won
the confidence of the Bellevue players and
supporters. Before the first Intercollegiate
game Coach McCoy expects to have a foot
ball machine perfected that will be a
prominent factor in the 1810 raoe for the
collegiate championship of Nebraska.

the kaiser's recent speech, in which h

a direct Issue In the contest, and resent
