vr s THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 10, 1911. WARNER COMING BACK AGAIN Crack Quarterback of Cornhuskers Sends Encouraging; Word. GUS LOFGBEN ALSO TO RETURN l.at'M Rrpnrli Give Xrtiraaka tl frl(f Hop of Tnrnlni Oat A nthrr MUaoai-1 Valley Cham pionship ElrTrn. LINCOLN, Ppt. lfl (Special ) Corn husker foot ball stock took another bound upward thU wk with the positive an nouncement by Manager Earl O. Eager that "Jerry" Warner, crack quarterback, and Gus Lofgren. "stsr end." would be In school Spain this fall. Up until 4he last few daya It aeemed a If the Comhuskeri would lose the,. services of these two grid Iron stars. CaptaJn "Hippo" Pbonka made a Tying trip to Warner's home when he learsed that there, waa a strong possibility thxt Warner would not be In achool and suc ceeded In obtaining a definite promise. Lofgren also wrote Eager that he had finally decided to come to school thla fall again. Lofgren will have a big task on his hands in getting his credits in shape to play foot ball. The little end was quarantined last spring for smallpox Just before the final semester examinations and he was forced to miss so much work that he will have to make up that which he missed. Hie work la in ouch shape that he can make It up, however. Prank Again at Half. The necessity of placing Owen Frank at quarter is overcome with the return of Warner, and Nebraska will again have her sensational halfback In big natural posl tion. Frank plays a steady, reliable game at quarter, but bis greatest asset to the team was his brilliant running with the ball In smashes through tackle, and Frank did not show up as well in quarter as in , the halfback position. Coach Stlehm will have eight veterans to Ftart with. The new all-year coach will have but two places in the line and one in the back field to fill unless some of the new men give greater promise than the veterans. Of the veterans the following will be back: Captain 8. V. Shonka, tackle; Walter Chauner and Gua Lofgren, ends; Harmon, guard; "Zack" Hornberger. cen ter; "Jerry" Warner, quarterback; O. Frank and E. Frank, halfbacks. Four of last year" substitutes will also be on hand with the opening of fall prac tice. Anderson, . a . big guard; GlbBon, a back field man; Russell in the back field and Elwell In the back field are last year's squad members. Many Sw Men. Of the new men "Jimmy" Plerson, a big lineman weighing 210 pounds, is the most likely - looking candidate. Plerson played on the freshmen team four years ago when "Captain Jack" Temple and othT gridiron stars entered the university. Plerson wa regarded as the best player on the fresh man squad that year, with the possible ex ception of Temple. He waa big and ag gressive and possessed a good knowledge of the game. Blnce then he haa kept apace wtth the new rules ' and Manager Eager expects Plerson to be a valuable addition to the squad. Purdy, the Beatrice athjete, who first played on the freshmen team at Chicago and later returned to Nebraska, Is another strong possibility. Purdy haa been train ing all summer and Is In superb condition for, the opening of practice. Mulligan Is another Beatrice boy who will give all comers' a raoe.. Potter Is a likely looking chap In the back field, while Weaver, a Norfolk High school player. Is remarkably fast and clever at fullback. Carlson was the only lineman of promise on the fresh man squad. With this array of. new talent and with practically an entire team of veterans, great thing are expected of Stlehm at the Cornhusker school, and Nebraska Is al ready pinning hopes for another Missouri valley championship. This season will also mark the resumption of athletic relations with another big eight team, for on the Saturday preceding Thanksgiving Nebraska will meet Michigan In Lincoln. Early In the season the Cornhuskers play with Min nesota on Northrup field. A Stiff Schedule. The schedule Is the stiff est a Cornhusker squad has ever been called upon to face. The schedule embraces two games with "big eight" members, three with Missouri valley conference leaders and two hard practice games. The schedule is as follows: October 7 Kearney Normal at Lincoln October 14 Kansas Aggies at Lincoln. October 21 Minnesota at Minneapolis. October 28 Missouri at Lincoln. November 4 Ames at Ames. November 11 Doane at Lincoln. November lft Kansas at Lawrence. November 25 Michigan at Lincoln. This schedule calls for the rtohest foot hall menu ever served to Lincoln devotees. The Michigan battle will attract thousands while the gridiron struggle with the "Ti gers" earlier In the season will probably re sult In one of the greatest games of the season, for the Mlssourians have been ex ceptionally strong the last three years and indications are that another strong team will represent the school again this season. An Eastern Assistant. Nebraska will draw almost entirely from the east for the coaching staff. Although the name has not been made public it is understood that an eastern man a grad uate of the Ohio State university and a prominent athlete will be chosen as as sistant to Btlehm. No formal action in the selection of an assistant coach can take place until the athletic board meets at the opening of the school term, but It will probably accept the recommendation of the committee. ' The prospective coach la a Lincoln phy sician and a gridiron star at his college. "Knockout Brown" to MejetBill Uvick Good Preliminaries Accompany Middle-weights' Go in South - Omaha Friday. "Knockout Brown" of Chicago and Billy Uvlck. middleweight fighters, who are said to possess considerable knowledge of the fighting game and some staying ability, will box ten rounds at Stanek's hall. South Omaha, Friday night. The contest will eb the main go of the evening. It will be preceded by a good card of preliminaries, according to the promoters. Fight fans are taking consider able interest In the bout and the hall's capacity is expected to be taxed. Jack Lester is Too Many for Bill Lang Washington Boy is Given the.

Beefy Candidates Come, to Creignton - for Gridiron Work While Loss of Former Stars is Felt, Newcomers Are Encouraging to the Coaches. First call for foot ball practice was Issued Friday night at Creignton university and about twenty eager early birds responded. Assistant Coach Morgenthaler had the can didates in charge. Anything strenuous waa excluded from the evening's program, the players indulging principally in loosening up their punt boots. The greater part of year's strongholds will again be in the lineup, but few have as yet reported. Of those missing Frank Marrln and "Red" Kyle are most needed. Rhonek will re turn to school this year, but has completed his four years of foot ball and will there fore be Ineligible. But this ordinarily dis couraging outlook seems to be overshad owed by the very opportune appearance of several strong and reputable newcomers. The most likely one of these Is a young huskily built chap by name of Murphy. He tips the beam In fighting weight at 190 pounds. His particularly good point is speed and he handles the pigskin as no foreign thing. With this chap undoubtedly making good and bolstering up Coach Mil ler's line he la already assured of a ster ling defense. Stapleton Is another big' husky who excel Is Murphy by a few pounds in beef and will In all probability fill In at guard. CNeil, McGrane, Bud Sullivan, McCarthy and young "Farmer" Burns are out and. contending for one of stellar roles, . If enthusiasm Is not playing too strong a part In the foot ball prospects rumored about the college, Creighton Is destined for the biggest year in its history. Coach Miller realizes the Importance of his sched ule and fully appreciates the strength - of Marquette, Colorado Springs and St. Thomas. Then, too, Creighton finds Itself at a considerable disadvantage In having four long trips on the season's schedule: at Milwaukee, Colorado Springs, Yankton, 8. Z., and St Paul. Another team, the Western Union college of Iowa, has been added to the schedule, and this aggrega tion will be the first on whom. Creighton will test her mettle. Monday morning prectice will begin in full sway under the twin supervision of Coaches Miller and Morganthaler. Peru Normal Ready v for Gridiron Year Coach Thacker Has Good Lineup of Old Stars and New Material that Look Like Champions. essBaBaasBMBja y PERU. Neb., Sept. 9. (Special.) Pros pects for a winning foot ball team at the Peru Normal are better than ever before. Already the foot ball men are coming back and practice will start Monday. Among these are Captain Shaver, Renfro, Lundy. Ralston, Schott. Sims, Glfford. alV players of last year. Shaver and Renfro won places on the All Nebraska team last fall and big things are expected of them this year. Sims is also a star man, and he, Ralston, Lundy and Renfro playing the back field, the team will be exceptionally fast on offensive work. Coach Thacker of a Michigan high school s here looking over the ground and getting things lined up. Thacker has coached foe- three years In Michigan and has won every game of foot ball, basket ball and bas ball that his team have played in the last three years. Word has been received from different men over the state who have played high school foot ball that they were contemplat ing entering the normal this fall, and with these and a host of scrubs of last year to build up the team. It ought to be a winner. The schedule for the season is a stiff one. Among the teams to be played arc Wesleyan. Hastings. Grand Island. Amity, Tabor, Warrensburg Normal and Kearney Normal.

CHICAGO SYSTEM IS ADOPTED A Pew New Paces Will Be Seen, but for Moat Part Laat Tear's Teams Will Remain Intact. The Mercantile will be the first of the many leagues to commence, Its regular bowling season. The schedule calls tor the opening games Monday night. The schedule is as follows: Midland vs, Root on alleys Nos. 1 and 2. Corey & McKenzle vs. El Paxo on alleys Nos. 4 and 6. , Columbia Insurance vs. Outlaws on alleys Nos. 6 and 7. A. O. U. W. vs. Spauldlngs on alleys Nos. 9 ana m. A few new faces will be seen among the bowlers, but In most cases the teams will remain Intact and will shoot with the same lineup as last season. The A. I. Root team will line up with Mokry, Kranda, Lemley, Arm an and F. and J. Jaros. These are all new men In the league. The El Paxo team, with A. Bland, Burt Lamb and George Bengrstrom, look like the one best bet of the league, as all three men are good bowl ers and were among the leading men In the average column last season. The Columbia Insurance company team, with Wentworth, Bowers and Swanson, will be among the leaders, as all three are experienced shoot ers. The Spauldlngs have taken the place of the Q. M. D. team and wtth the two Zeckmelsters and Hoffer will still hold on to about the same lineup. The A. O. U. W. team also has about the same men and with Simpson, ,Hamlll and Schneider they will stay In the top places. The Midland Paint and Glass team will be content to use their last year's men and will shoot Potter, Christianson and Johnson. Corey & Mc Kenzle will be a new crew and with Corey, Latch, Johnson, Carpenter and R. and L. Smith to. help them along they Intend to be In every game. The Outlaws, with long, tall Blonde Stockwell, Al Green and Twin Oaks, are going after the leaders only and give promise of being in the race from the start Vnltee Among Mlitlng, It Is to be regretted that Past President Bob Vultee will be among the missing in this league this season, as it was he who practically put the league where It is, and it Is hoped that the officers In charge this year will try and follow the good example set by the past president The Chicago system of shooting league games will be used by this league on the opening Monday, every team In the league shooting their games at the same time.! This will be the first time It has been tried in the city and many of the bowlers of other leagues will be present to witness the tryout Pa Kinneman, the well known alley operator of St Joseph, has devised a new and novel method of advertising the next international tournament of the American Bowling congress, which is to take place at the Dexter park pavilion In Chicago, starting March 2 and finishing March 24. Kinneman's plan is to organize a team or teams in Chicago, the teams to be composed of some of the well known oowiers or that city, and to start them on a trip around a circuit composed of cmes sucn as Springfield, Qulncy, Jef ferson City, St Louis, Kansas City, Min neapolis, St Paul, Rock Island, Daven port, Joplin, Atchison, Leavenworth, To peka, Omaha. Sioux City,, Des Moines and others. The expenses of such a trio are to h met Jointly by the alley operators in the cities visited, the American Bowline ron. gress and firms represented by the trav eling teams. This would not only help the bowling game In the towns visited, but the traveling team could carry entry uiuhkb ana oe authorized to accept same without any further action of the bowT- ers. me trip Is planned to be taken some time between January 15 and Feb ruary 15. Alley operators and bowlers whn h.v. been approached on the aubject are very uiuiuc udoui u and no doubt with sucn Dacking as can be had in th n.M4i. west the plan will be carried out. Two Leagues Incomplete. The two big leagues, the nmh Commercial, are still in an Incomplete and doubtrul state of organization. When ev erything is taken in consideration this condition is really appalling, to think that all the younger leagues are ready and will commence their schedule during the coming week and the two big fellows that should set the pace are still dragging Ihe Commercial has practically a com plete organization and will start not later than next week with a full membership to be comcosed of eight teams and a schedule of elshty-four games. In the Omaha league matters are not so rosy. President Tracy Is a hustler and is working hard to complete the mem bership of 'the league, but with the dob sible exception of Dad Huntington Is all alone when It comes to hustling. Thia l the oldest organized , body of bowlers In tne city, ana it is hoped that those who Intend shooting during the coming sea son will wake up to the fact that th time Is getting short and the season will start esriy. Booster League Schedule. Tuesday. September 12: Omaha Bedding Co. against Coits, alleys Nos. 1 and 2. Rod and Gun against London Tailors. alleys Nos. 4 and 6. Ruxfner Tailors against Btors Malts alleys Nos. and 7. Mazeppas against Bangers, alleys ' Nos. and 10. - - The Boosters start their season Tuesday night, shooting all the games at the same time. This will practically be equal to a night in a tournament and with the noisy and good natured bowlers It should be one of much variety of noises and healthy bleacher yells. The Advos under Captain Tracy are ready to take chances with any of the big league teams with Frltcher, Gjerde, Zimmerman. Goff, McCague and Captain Tracy. The Cross team Is also fully membered with Malum. Johnson, Cain. Cochran. Maytham, Mose Yousen and Captain Wiley. The Meti Brothers, of course, will be satisfied with last year's team. Including Ted Neale. Frank Conrad, King Denman. Jimmy Blakeney, Mike Sprague and Captain Hunting. The V. J. O'Brien team will shoot. Wartshaw, Myron Stunz, Jack Read. Dick Grotta and other unknowns under the captaincy of Herr Jack Read. The Hospe team will be com posed of practically the same men as last year and will be captained by Billy Zits man. Morry-Go-Ronnd Results. ' Open to the world merry-go-round re sult are as follows: Rice and Wartshaw 1.222 C. Cockran and E. Cockran 1.205 Wiley and Wartshaw... a 1.201 Neale and E. Cockran... ...j 1.200 Herman Goldsmith, who Is sales man ager for a tobacco company, was a visitor In the city during the week and called upon many of the prominent bowlers, being an enthusiastic bowler himself and willing at any time to go broke on Jimmy Smith. Mr. Goldsmith la the man who so kindly offers "Twin Oaks' to the bowlers throughout the entire country and It was light hers at Omaha where this was first attempted.
