Coach benjamin of Bellevue ex
' pects to send practically the same
lineup into the game with Trinity at
Bellevue Friday afternoon which he
used against Corner.. : Two weeks'
practice since the last game has con
: vinced Benjamin that he has hit upon
' the right combination with Captain
' Racely, Johns, Picotte and Mincer in
, the -backfield, Erwin and Williams at
' the ends, Ebersole and Gustafson at
" the tackles, Allen and Daugherty at
the guards and Kinnier at center.
But to be on the safe side, the sub
urban mentor has been drilling an
other backfield composed of Dunlap
and Stewart at the halves, Shainholtz
of backs has been working out with
the Tegular varsity line for half the
. lime at practice every evening, anu
they are now' ready to take their
places in the lineup. It is still an open
question whether Benjamin will start
the sub backfield and save the varsity
he will start the regular backfield and
use the others only when he needs
them.
Pangle Shows Stuff.
George Pangle, an Omaha boy, has
been showing up so well at end on the

Hoagland Says East
. Heavily for Hughes
(From a Staff Correspondent.) f
Lincoln, Oct. 18. (Special.)
When Senator Walter V. Hoagland
of North Platte was in Washington a
few weeks ago a press dispatch from
that city in an alleged interview said
that Senator Hoagland was for Wil
son, and that Hughes- had no show.
Returning to Nebraska his attention
.was called to it and today, he gave the
following statement over his name:
The mUtged dispatch Itaelf refuteB the
truth of the alleged Interview because at
thftt time Mr. Hughes had not made any
to the republican, state' committee of this
city could not have been true. As a matter
of fact I did tell a friend of mine In Wash
ington about the general apathy as to polit
ical conditions throurhout the middle west
ern states, and did say that there was no
doubt about the election of Mr. Kennedy
for senator, and that at the time of Mr.
Hughes' nomination that there was no ques
tion abou$ his being able to carry the state.
The alleged statements placed In thie dis
patch are about as correct ns a democratic
newspaper usually gets the ficta.
During my trip to Washington and New
fork, I made considerable investigation as
to political conditions in those states, and I
believe tffit there Is no question but that
Mr. Hughee will carry the states of New
York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania by
tremendous majorities. That New Jersey
and Maryland are eurly republican; that
Illinois Is easily republican by 100,000, and
hat there can be no question about the
election of the -republican candidate for .
president. ..At , the time Mr. Hughes was :
nominated It was at the Insistent demand
of the rank and file of republicans that ho ,
accepted the leadership. Mr. Hughes Is a 1
man-of peace and there is no reason why
every republican within the state should 1
not cast hit vote for the republican ticket I
at tne November election. This state is
surely republican by a strong majority and
with the republicans standing for the moral
Issue at well aa for the beet interests of
the farmers fn the economl" development
of the state of Nebraska. I feel there Is no
doubt but Nebraska will b In line tn
November with the balance of the repub
lican, states In this nation. The democrats
always elect in October and the republicans
'a November.

WilliamThaw; U, S.
Aviator With French
Army, Meets Death
New Haven, Conn., Oct 18. Word
has been received here announcing
the death of William Thaw, an Amer
ican aviator with the French army.
New York, Oct. 18. The secretary
ot Mrs. Benjamin Thaw, mother of
William Thaw, said here today that
no word had been received by her of
his death. "Benjamin Thaw, jr., a
brother, is in Paris and if seems as
if he would have heard of any such
thing and notified us at once," the
secretary said. "I do not believe the
report is authentic."
An erroneous published report last
April said Thaw was killed while
above Verdun and a similarly untrue
report some time before that had him
seriously wounded.
WILSON SPEAKS TO
CHICAGOANS THRICE
President Will Make Three
Talks in Windy City Today,
Arriving Before Noon,
TO ADDRESS PRESS CLUB
William K. Thaw, a nephew of
Harry K. Thaw, took up flying in this
country before the war. A flight
which attracted attention took him
from New Haven to this city, where
he circled the statue of liberty and
flew under the four East river
bridges.
When the war began Thaw was ia
Europe. He volunteered in the Amer
ican corps of the foreign legion and
finally was afforded a chance in the
flying corpsT being the first Ameri
can to enter it Since then his name
has figured prominently in the chron
icles of French air heroes. Excep
tional deeds won him promotion to
the ranks of sergeant and lieutenant
as well as military medals, including
the cross of the legion of honor.
In June Thaw was wounded while
bringing down a Fokker In the re
gion' of Verdun and going to Paris to
recuperate found himself a popular
hero. He was called "The American
Eagle." The last published report
of his service told of a flight made
over the German lines in July.
Big Betting Odds
' That Hughes Will
Carry the Election
Indianapolis, Ind., Oct 18. (Spe
cial.) The Hughes-Wilson presiden
tial election will be the occasion for
thousands of dollars exchanging
hands in Indiana, a record amount of
money being wagered on the result.
The various betting commissioners
in Indianapolis have their boards plas
tered with propositions that Hughes
will sweep the country and reports
from all parts of the state show thai
the7 prevailing odds are $100 to $50
against the chances of Wilson being
elected.
There appears to have been a shift
in the sentiment among the betting
fraternity within the last two weet;s,
when wagers of $70 to $100 were un
taken that Wilson would be elected.
All this Wilson money has been wiped
oil the boards and the newer odds at
the longer price have taken their
place. .
One of. the, most prominent betting
commissioners predicted that by post
time, nugnes packers will nave to in
crease the price to $300 to $100. He
said that one of the chief instruments
in the odds lengthening is due to the
general switching of the labor vote in
many of the industrial districts. He
asserted that two weeks ago these
centers appeared to be fully 95 per
cent for Wilson, but that a reaction
has set in, especially among the rail
road employes who have had a better
chance to investigate the Adamson
act and have come to the conclusion
that they really were doubled crossed
into believing the congress measure
was an eight-hour law.

l ondon, Oct. 18. Reuter's Chris-
tiania correspondent says Norway has
iiiiormcd the entente allies that it
does not recopniie it as is its duty
to prohibit passage through or so
journ in Norwegian waters by bel
ligerent submarines. The Norwegian
note is in resDonse to the memoran.
dum of the entente powers to neu
trals suggesting that bellieerent sub.
marines should be excluded from neu
tral waters.
The Norwegian government as
serts it considers it has the right to
prohibit submarines designed for war
purposes and beloneins to belli
ents from passing through Norwegian
territorial waters or sojourning in
them, and says it made use of this
right in issuing the royal decree of
October 1J, under which belligerent
submarines are forbidden to traverse
Norwegian waters except in cases of
emergency, when they must remain
upon the surface and fly the national
flag. The decree also provides that
mercantile submarines are to be al
lowed in Norwegian waters only in
a surface oosition in full riavfjoht
and when flying the national colors.
On the other hanrl the onvenmmt
does not find that it is us duty as

Talk Drifts from
Irrigation Onto
Drainage Matters
El Paso, Tex., Oct 18. Drainage
replaced irrigation on the program
of the International Irrigation con
gress here today. John H. Nolen
state reclamation commissioner of
Missouri, spoke for the National
Drainage congress and urged a joint
meeting of the International Irrigation
congress and the National Drainage
congress at an early date to consider
national legislation to aid in the
reclamation of arid and swamp lands.
He said the warring countries of Eu
rope were spending enough money in
one day to reclaim thousands of acres
of swamp and arid land in the United
Mates and urged the support of legis.
lation appropriating the money for
this reclamation work.
D. W. Murphy, Denver, Colo., engi
neer in charge of drainage for the
united states reclamation service.
spoke on the drainage of irrigated
lands in the west and asserted that
the drainage of irrigated lands which
had been water-logged was even
more important than the placing ot
water on these lands by means of irri
gation projects.
"The rlrainacre nf wit.r.lnoa,
lands under irrigation projects is vital
to tne lite ot the project, Mr.
Murphy said. "The drainage of irri
gated lands which have become
water-Jogged increases the taxable
property of a district, restores con
fidence and prevent failures by farm
ers who have invested their entire
capital in the lands." -
Percy A. Cupper, assistant state en
gineer of Oregon, spoke on "An In
terpretation of the Oregon Water
Code by the Supreme Court of the
United States and Its Effect on the
