STIE1IM SAYS HE WILL STAY Conch Announce that lie Will Take Ilia Chanced rrlth Nebraska Alumni to Hold HI Foot Ball Hnnqnet Tonight. LINCOLN, Dec. 4. (8peclal.)-Knnsaa. Is facing a situation somewhat similar to Nebraska In the selection of StcUwe, thn big backfleld star, for next year's foot ball captain. Bteuwe, like Towle, played an unofficial season of base ball and Koma of the critics for this reason havo been Inclined to crltnclse the eligibility of the new Kansas leader. According1 to reports from Kansas, Bteuwe played base ball In the season of 5912. the same year that Towle played, and the Jayhawkers, like Nebraska, had but three games scheduled, with no con ference teams. But Kansas granted let ters to the members of the Jayhnwker baso ball team while the Nebraska, ath letic board did not, and took no official notice of the reorganised team. At Kansas, however, the athletic board la not jeven worrying about Bteuwe'a eligibility, taking the view that the sea son was not an offlclil season of sport. With the example of Kansas It la now ex tremely unlikely If Nebraska's eligibility committee will disqualify Towle for tho season of base ball, which Included only three games and thlse with secondary schopls. StleHftt -Will Hnu-V.t At tho banquet given the ""fibers of the Cornhusker team by Lincoln business, men, Coach flfteKm" ahnpunced his atten tion of iretpalnlng lh Nebraska. To those faihUlar With '.the situation there was little question but what Bllehm would re main hero. Th Cornhusker mentor had offers from other schools more tempting financially than Nebraska, but the pros pect was not so bright. Nebraska's standing In foot ball and other sports Is high .enough to Insure prestlgo for the work of any man. With tfte remarkable success which has attended' Stlchm's work the last season there is no question but the Nebraska Athtetlo board will grant him a substan tial Increase. "V The annual Cornhusker banquet will be held tomorow night at the Lincoln hotel. An attendance fo over 800 nlumnte and undergraduates is expected. Prof. II. W.

G0NDING ALREADY ENGAGED BY R0URKE FOR NEXT YEAR Old Johnny Oondlng la a Ttourke again. lie will be on the Job when the 1914 training camp opens and stick for the big show during the season. Pa has al ready engaged Ills veteran, catcher, who put In the last season In' the Nebraska State league and with the Norfolk inde pendent team. Many old. friends of the Omaha team wahted Pa to, bring dondlng back last season to whip some of his raw material, especially pitchers. Into form, a work at which he has no superior. That and coaching and general counseling, possibly managing the team, will be his Job the coming year or years, probably. One of the wisest and rcsdlest old heads that ever bobbed around the Western league is the one on aondlngs shoulders, and everybody who has known the league since the late 90s knows that to be a fact He ought to bo a gold mine to Omaha In this rapacity. It Is but the principle big leagues are pursuing wher ever possible, of having an old catcher, who has been successful In his day, at tached to the team to train youngsters, tspeclally pitchers. And on of their most serviceable spheres Is coaching. Omaha lost many a game In 1913 by no coaching at all or the wrong kind. Do you think that will happen with 'Noisy Jawn" around?
