DECIDES STATE CHAMPIONS
Omaha and North Platte to Contest
for Big Honors Turkey Day.
BOTH ARE ANXIOUS FOR BATTLE
Members of the Trrn Siinnila nenttraa
for he llnr When They Teat
InillTlilnnl nnil United
I'roweaa.
Couch Mill's. high school proteges will
mix with North Platte High school on
the afternoon of Thanksgiving day, de
termined to do or die. The local high
school boys reatlze the Importance of the
contest with tho western school and upon
a victory is dependant any honor Omaha
may hope to receive this year.
North Platte Invades Omahn with a
record of last year's posted before them
and they realize that upon the team this
year rests tho honor of the school. For
several years North Tlatte has been su
premo In tho west nnd the only regret
ot the .supporters ot those victorious
squads was that their Idols were given
no opportunity to contend for the cham
pionship. Omaha has not played North
Platte nor has any other of the teams in
the eastern part of the stato. As a re
sult tho North Platte lads have been dis
gruntled because they were allowed no
claim to the state championship and did
not play eastern teams, consequently
they were never given nn opportunity
against eastern squads.
Not So Victorious.
This year the Omaha school agreed to
play North Platto on Thanksgiving day.
But this year North Platte did not come
through its previous battles unsullied by
defeat as of yore. In tho days of the
sensational Hnlllgan, who Is now the
Btar Of alt Missouri valleys teams, and
Norris, the Cornhusker freshman, who
promises to develop Into almost as great
a tncklo as Halllgan, North Platto swept
all before It. This year it suffered de
feat but it was an unlucky defeat and
the western schools ot the state agreo
that , If Omaha shall win from North
Platte on Thanksgiving day, the cham-
pinoshlp shall be: conceded to the state
metropolis.
Piny In Omnlin.
North Plnlte 1h coming td Omaha
turkey day, , bound to fight to tho last
minute, attempting to sustain the reputa
tion df both North Platte and all western
high schools. Tho team this year, al
though It registers no Individual stars'.
like Halllgan or Norris, Is well-balanced
and will put up a hard fight A beat
Omaha spirit Has' been Instilled In all tho
members of the team from the start of
tho season Until now. If they return to
North Platto a vanquished team, It
means disgrace and any eleven men will
fight to avoid such a stigma.
If Omaha wins it will only be by the
greatest effort and strain, but every
member of the Omaha squad realizes that
fact and Mills is confident that his boys
will make an Interesting battle against
the westerners. Mills Is making no state'
monts as to the outcome. He seldom does
and especially this year as he has been
disappointed at times with the work of
the men. But ha does bcllove that It
North Platte wins it will be because
North Platte has tho best team.
In Fine ghnpr.
All members of the Omaha team, with.
one exception, aro In perfect condition
or, will be by Thursday, Moser, the cen
ter, will not be ablo to play, duo to , i
broken collarbone suffered In an early
game, and bruised again in the Lincoln
contest.- Moser will bo a sad loss as ho is
undoubtedly the strongest high school
center-In the state.
Klein, the whirlwind end, who strained
his ankle In the York game, will be back
In the fray with an ankle as strong ns
before. Cartful attention ' was all It
needed and ' the forward pass expert will
be on hand td receive the long passes
from l'latz that-nave proved so fatal to
other teams.
Plan, the crack halfback, who is al
most university material, Is aching to
get a shot at the chost westerners, and
it will bo lucky 'North 'Platte runner that
Will get past Plats or a "lucky North
Platte tackier that will be able to stop
the vicious rushes of the Omaha half
when he Is carrying the ball.
Kelly Up and Coming.
Kelly is In good condition once more
apd the wonderful little field general Is
sure to run the team In faultless style.
The acquisition of Kelly at quarter.
which enabled Mills to put Gardiner up
on tho line where he Is e. tower of
strength, Was a fortunate one for the
high school. The Sioux City contest was'
lost merely because Omaha, lacked ' n
competent quarterback and Gardiner 'was
compelled t go into an unfamiliar posi
tion. A big crowd is, expected at the 'game
Thanksgiving day. Preparations arc being
mode to put the field In good condition
and everything will be ready ofr the
crucial contest that will decide If Omaha
Is supreme among: Nebraska high schools.

Mild Weather Causes
Tons of Meat to Spoil
CHICAGO, Nov, 24. Warning of dan
ger of poisoning from tons of meats
spoiled by the unusually mild weather
was Issued today by the city bureau ot
food Inspection. A great quantlnty of
meats was distributed -'In Chicago last
week for consumption on Thanksgiving.
The temperature rose and remained In
the sixties .for several days. No prepara
tion had been made to keep the extra
stock ot meet in the coolers and a con
siderable percentage of It spoiled.
Friday and Saturday the bureau con
demned 6,000 pounds ot rabbits and hun
dreds of fowl, but the solution Is beyond
the control of tho Inspectors. Dr, B. E.
Sherman, chief of the bureau, asserted the
Thanksgiving ruch has caused producers
to pack meats before the animal heat
has died out and shipped them In non
refrigerating cars.
"Products in the stage of decompoal.
tlon can be detected by their odor," Dr.
Sherman said "rowls and game only
tllghtly spotted are harder to detect, but
Just as likely to cause severe intestinal
disorders."
