PftlNCBTOW, N. J., Nov. T.-Tlie first'
ot' the triangular aeries' of root- ball
ganiea between Han'nrti; Valo and Prince
ton' will be fplaycd on University Field'
here tomorrow, afternoon, when tho
elsvens of Harvard and Princeton meet
la their annual gridiron battto. This con
test the eighteenth between tho teams
ot the two institutions since the Intro
duction of Intercollegiate foot ball as a
varsity sport, Is espoctml to produce
play of high type. Doth elevens ara
neaflng tho c'lmax ot their respective
seasons and should, display par grid
lror form. Tho game also- possess pos
sibilities when considered In - connection
with the eastern ctuirnploiiBhlp struggle.
Harvard faces tho Tigers with u. record
unmarred by defeat. Princeton, although
defeated by Dartmouth; can still compli
cate the situation by cither tying or de
feating the .Crimson.
These conditions, augmented, by -tho
fact that the game' la tho final one of
ther home jason JihdranHa as,.one,.ofJ
the foot ball classics of tho .year, has
created unusual interest' fn the lair ot
the' Tiger. Juti'gletqwn. as lrlnceton ' Is
frequently termed in io,nc and cheer, is
tn tho throe of anto-game enthusiasm
tonight The orange, and black of "Old
Kaieau" and the crimson of Harvard,
flutter from hundreds of windows, and
tha' wlie shopkeeper, playing no favorite,
has' decorated every available, point of
vantage under his Jurisdiction with the
colors ot the competing colleges, hoping
thereby to leap financial benefits' from
home and invading clans. Classmen and
alumni of both institutions are record
ing in song and story thcr prowess of
their teams and in honor ot the occasion
Princeton has veiled its ocademlo solem
nity for tho coming twenty-four hours.
In these scenes) of celebrating; the
squads of players representing the rival
universities have no part. Quartered
near tho scene ot tomorrow's battle, they
are resting in preparation tor the call
to the turfed area, where they are soon
to match foot ball skill, tactics and en
durance. Neither coaches nor captains
care to forecast the reeult, but the en
thusiastic undergraduate supporters of
the, elevens are not o conservative.
1-ayal expressions of opinion lead to ar
guments, and controversy to wagering,
and tonight there is many a little enve
lope tucked I away tn townfolk safes,
which rocordi tho fact that Harvard ad
herents are 'giving slight odds on the
CrlmtOn to triumph over the Orange and
Ulack.
Much persuasion l necetsary to secure
thece slight concetslons In odds, for Har
vard, despite lis splendid foot bait record

Outplayed and outgeneraled for two'
whole quarters the Omaha High sphoot
foot ball team made a whirlwind, finish
agalmt Lincoln High yesterday afternoon
and ran three touchdowns In tho last two
quarters of the game for a 2J to 7 vie
tory,y which gives Omaha an opporunlty
io secure mo cnampionsntp or the state.
Trro gamo was played under difficulties,
duo to tho rain and chllllns wind that
swept tho battlefield, causing much, fumbling.
Lincoln made a sensational start and
rushed the ball over Omaha's goal line
soon after tho initial whistle btew, Tho
boys from the Capital city used shift
plays and constantly worked the ends,'
where Omaha Is a little weak, and Plats,
Berry and Harte, on tho secondary de
fense, were unable to stop the speedy'
backfletd of tho Lincoln team bofore a
substantial gain had been mode. Morris
and tjulck, with Cotton, tho quarterback,
made run after run around Omaha's
flanks, and It appeared nt first as If It
would be lmposstblo to stop thqm.
Aner uaruiner had made tho klckoff.
Morris and Quick carried the ball to
Omaha'a five-yard line without a mo
ment's hesitation, but Platz broke up an
end run and throw Quick for a fifteen
yard loss on the next play. 'ThO "Omaha
boys then held and aardlner kicked
thirty-five 'yards' against' thp wind; but
Morris broke through for another twenty-five-yard
sprint and Cblton rushed
through tho lino on a trick quarterback
off guard play for a touchdown. Cotton
then kicked the goal.
Omaha Pinks Ui flame.
IJncoln continued to play much faster
than Omaha during the remainder ot the
first quarter, but Omaha picked up In
the second quarter and by the third quar
ter wero clearly outclassing the boys from
Salt creek.
Plats, .as In all previous games this
year, was the star of the game, but he
was hard pushed for honors by Kelly,
the little quarterback whom Mills pulled
from the second team and shoved Into
that position. Plata waJ the hardest
fighter In the game and It took two of
Lincoln's huskies to stop him whenever
he got. past the line. Ho mads several
twenty-flve-yard runs and his accurate
forward passing, handicapped by the
high wind, enabled Klein to make the
first touchdown which tied the score In
me seconu quarter.
Kelly ran the team like a general who
had been through many a memorable bat
tle. He seemed to be able to telt Just
what play to use and Just what time to
use tt. In addition to his remarkable
field generalship the chap was an expert
at carrying tho ball. In tho final quar
ter, when his baokfleld was worn out
by continuous running, he took the ball
himself and ran forty yards In three
plays for a touchdown.
Gardflner was a wonderful improve
ment at tackle. I -a at Saturday he Played
a rather weak game at quarter, but on
the line he was b tower of strength and
Lincoln pushed very few play sthtough
his side of the tine. Ilerry at full back
played commendable foot ball. Ha made
consistent gains through Lincoln's heavy
line and even smashed for ten and fifteen
yard gains on one or two occasions.
Clever on Derrnse,
Klein, at end. was clever on the defen
sive and offensive both. He caught sev
eral forward passes that netted substan
tial gains and he made the first touch
down on a forward pass by the way ot
Plats. Moser at renter played a wonder
ful game. Suffering from a collarbone,
which was broken earlier In the year,
and with Lincoln playing to disable him
If possible, he clearly outplayed his oppo
nent. Moser established himself as cer
tain to secure the position ot all-state
center. Not content with holding on tils
own line, he dragged dowp three runners
on three plays In an open field after they
had broken through the secondary de
fense. He prevented a touchdown tn the
first quarter by catching Morris from the
rear otter the Lincoln back had evaded
the rest ot the team. Moser was taken
out In the last quarter becauso ot his
weak collarbone.
Morris was Lincoln's star. He was
handicapped by a wrenched side, but he
stuck to the conflict until the last quar
ter, when he was Injured again and re
moved from the field.
Westover, who lias been playing the
best game for Lincoln this year, did not
enter the cotest bnecause or a badly
sprained wrtt which the Lincoln coaohes
did not want wrenched again. His ab
sene weakened the team materially.
May .Ye't Be Champa,
By virtue of the defeat of Lincoln
Omaha still has a chance to scoure the
stato championship. Lincoln was de-
; feated by vaUtrice and Aurora and If
Lincoln had defeated Omaha, alt woull
have ben lost. At tt Is. It looks as tf a
dispute will arise for the championship.
Something definite may be determined.
ohwever, by the games with Tork and
North Platte, although both of these
teams have been deefated. It Is a trl
anglcd affair this year nnd tt appears as
ot the championship will bo doubtful.
Lincoln made tho first touchdown in the
first quarter, hut that was Its last oppor
tunity to score. After Morris, Quick and
Colton had carried the ball down Uie
field on the shifts, Omaha wpVe up and
tho ends wero no longer circled so con
sistently. In the second quarter, a trick
pass, from Kelly to Harte to Flats, who
then made the forward pass to Klein,
netted several long fatns and Klein car
ried the last one over. The first halt
ended with the Bcore a tie, 7 to 7, as both
Colton and dsrdlner kicked goals from
touchdowns.
In the fourth quarter Lincoln took a
sudden burst of speed and worked the
ball welt down the field, but Gardiner
kicked Into safe territory and Morris
made a costly fumble on his own twenty-
yard line and Hughes snapped It up and
made a. touchdown without difficulty. A
moment later Berry went through for
twenty yards on a delayed pais after
tho klckoff and Kelly took the ball and
carried It twenty' yards to the five-yard
line. He then carried it over on a
short quarterback run. Gardiner kicked'
the goal and the score stood 21 to 7.
Uiid of thr Plnys.
Not content with that, Kelly gave the
ball to PlHtz, who ran to the middle ot
the field after the kick. Gardiner punted
and Moser, the center, raced down the
field and recovered Colton' 'fumble ot
the punt on the 15-yard line. Platz car
ried the ball over for the final touch
down. Score: Omaha, 25; Lincoln, 7.
RUTHERFORD SOME BETTER
Nebraska Half Will Surely Be in
Game with Kansas.
TO HOLD CROSS-COUNTRY RUN
Ames, Kansas nnd Nebraska Will

of Today's Game.
LINCOLN, Nov, 7.-(irpecial.)-Tho 111
ness of Halfback Itutherford, the star
Cornhusker baokfleld man. Is not so seri
ous, according to physicians, but ho will
surely get Into the Kansas ga"hio a week
from tomorrow.
fitlohm Is expecting a nwrry little brush
with the Wesleyan Coyotes in the game
tomorrow, although the Methodists are
not so formidable as In former seasons.
Their defeat of Crelghton earlier In the
season was tho result ot a weakened
line up at tho Catholic school and It Is
doubtful If tho Methodists could even
scoro off the Omaha team now.
Cross country running Is to be sand
wlched In between the halves of the Ne-braska-Wesleyan
game. It is the annual
Missouri Valley cross country run and
Missouri. Ames, Kansas and Nebraska
wljl have teams entered. The Missouri
team arrived here this morning and Kan
sas and Ames are expected later In the
dev.
Nebraska Itnnnrra,
Nebraska's cross country squad has
seven veterans with an abundance of new
material" nnd should be strong In the run.
Tho course Is for five miles, north from
the athletic field to Belmont on Tenth,
back on Fourteenth to the grounds. The
runners will be taken over the course to
morrow morning In automobiles. Thirty
men will, start in the nn.
The freshmen last nlg.ht made an lm
presslve showing against? thr -varsity In
scrimmage, putting over- three touch
downs while the regulars were unable to
score. Chamberlain, the freshman star,
and former Wesleyan player, was the
big noise ot the performance, scoriar
twice after he had circled the ends for
fifteen and twenty-yard dashes.
The freshmen used the Kansas shifts
with great success, but the regulars were
badly torn by Injuries and less than halt
of the letter men were In.
Stlehni held his first heavy practice of
the week tonight when most ot his
cripples were back in the lineup after
a week's rest
