ALL HATS OFF TO
NEW HUSKER COACH
Doc Stewart Proves He's Goods
- by Making New Team Out
of Nebraska Eleven.
SHAKES UP WHOLE TEAM
...
Doc Stewart, the new Cornhusker
coach, who is undertaking the colossal
job of repeating the success of
Jumbo Stiehm without the assistance
of any Chamberlains,,can now let his
chest measurements expand to his
own, liking , id tan buy a hat two
sizes larger without a murmur of
disapproval from Nebraska foot ball
fans. For Stewart certainly made
himself solid with, the Nebraska folk
Saturday, when the Huskers wal
loped the Oregon Aggies. 17 to 7.
Without discrediting In any way
the individual efforts of the Husker
athletes, one glance at the lineup suf
fices to prove that the major portion
of the glory, and praise should be
showered on tne new coacn. it was
an entirely different eleven which
faced -Oregon- than lined np against
Drake and the Kansas Aggies.
V " Five Men Shifted.
"Tli r ii.' 3 a nnlv rtn. fij.ur man nr
the Cornhusker team Saturday, Dob-
son, but five others were shitted into
new positions.
Jimmy Gardiner, who has always
played in the backfield, played end
against the Aggies. Rhodes, a full
back, was played at tackle. Captain
Tim Corev was converted into an
end after three years at tackle. Ted
Riddell was shifted from end to half
back and Otouoalik from end to the
backfield. Dobson was played at full
back and Doyle became a substitute.
And those who saw Nebraska play
either Drake or the Kansas Aggies
are convinced that it was this daring
shakeup that gave the Cornhuskers
the powerful offense which proved
too much for the Oregonians. The
Huskers have had a great defense
from the' start, but in their first -two
games the offense was woefully weak.
Stewart saw that drastic measures
were necessary and he immediately
made the shift And to make the
achievement more meritorious, he
made his changes while the team was
on the road, only getting practice
here and there, wherever train stops
could be arranged,
:, Speeds Up Backfield.
By putting Riddell in at halfback,
Stewart added speed to his offense,
and by putting Otoupalik back he
gained a hard line plunger. Dobson
proved to be both a good line plunger
and a fast open field runner, and
something of a demon on the defense,
too, as his two interceptions of for
ward passes testifies. Rhodes did not
like up to expectations as a ground
gainer, so Stewart converted him
into a successful ' tackle. Placing
Corey at end gave Captain Tim a
chance to lug the pigskin himself a
little without weakening the line any.
i Forget J. Stiehm.
Like the chess master moves the
men on the chess board, Stewart
shook up his foot ball team and
transformed it from a very ordinary
offensive eleven to one of formidable
qualities. Ana an inc mourners wno
have been moaning over the loss of
Jumbo Stiehm doffed their top pieces,
crossed their fingers for their pessi
mism of the past and decided that
maybe Nebraska was pretty lucky
after all that Indiana put in its oar
last winter.
Nebraska continues to rank as fa
vorite in the race for the Missouri
valley championship honors. Ames
and Missouri battled to a tie Satur-.
day, which leads to the belief that
Ames is not as strong as previously
supposed, and Kansas, who was wal
loped by the Iowa Agriculturists, is,
extremely weak. Drake, Kansas,
Washington, and the Kansas . Aggies
are all out of the race, so it remains
for Nebraska to defeat Ames in or
der to win the title for the seventh
consecutive year.

Lincoln high had a comparatively
easy time with--i(orlc High school

the score down. Lincoln piled up
three touchdowns for a score of
20 to 0.
For three quarters with "Pub" Grif
fin absent from the local line-up, the
visitors held the game scoreless. One
minute after Griffin was placed in a
forward pass from the latter to Lamb,
netted the first touchdown.
The tackling pf the York team, the
feature of the game was largely
responsible for the close score. Dean
Meyers, tackle, and Glasser, fullback,
were the stellar lights of Coach Har
mon's teim, while Griffin, Gypreanson
and Pillard starred for the locals.

HUSKERS' VICTORY
SHOWS THEIR CLASS
Three Undefeated Teams in
; Valley Battle for the
Championship. v
DOPE ON, SATURDAY PLAY
Kansas City, Oct. 23. Expected
clarification of the scrimmage for the
Missouri Valley conference champion
ship was wot forthcoming from last
week's games, which lef three unde
feated teams still fighting for the
prize and Nebraska with two uncon
auere donoonents to put awav. in
stead of one, if the Cornhuskers wish
to duplicate their feat of past years.
And that the Lincoln team bids- fair
to "turn . the trick was evidenced by
their clean victory scored in Portland,
Ore., over the Oregon Aggies.
Valley foot ball teams today hailed
Nebraska's far western triumph as a
vindication of claims that teams of
this section are playing a highly de
veloped game which the best teams
in the country mmld do well to over
come. , . '
Ames and Tigera Unbeaten.
Missouri and Iowa State (Ames)
remain with Nebraska in the unde
efated class of the conference. A mat
ter of inches yesterday twice pre
vented a decision in tlc scoreless tie
played by the Tigers and the Iowans
at Columbia. '
The game injected more uncertainty
into the final outcome than has been
apparent during the four successive
seasons in which the Cornhuskers
have reigned -supreme - in the valley.
Both machines will give Nebraska a
hard fight. ,.
i The Kansas Aggies played a medi
ocre game against the Emporia (Kan.)
Normal school, winning, 13 to 3.
Drake defeated Washington, 13 to 0.
University of" Kansas utilized an off
day to rumple up the Kansas fresh
men, 19 to 0, while Captain Lindsey
watched the Kansas Aggies in prepa
ration for the game with that team
Saturday and Coach Olcott journeyed
to Dallas, Tex., to see Oklahoma in
action, in the hope of getting points
for the Kansas-Oklahoma game on
November 4.
Soonera Lose Prestige.
The Dallas game, which resulted in
a victory for the University of Texas,
21 to 7, was taken to indicate that
Oklahoma's supremacy south of the
Missouri river has met at least a
temporary) check. Certainly the de
feat virtually eliminated the Sooners
from the Southwestern conference
title race.
Dogs Race in Cold v
Wind at the 'Island
Grand Island, -Oct. 22. (Special
Telegram.) Due to the rather in
clement weather, the attendance at
the National Coursinsr meet Jie!. in
this city was less than expected, while
there was a good gathering of dog
fanciers, the general public failing to
take chances on the cool winds, which
swept across the course.
Today witnessed the second and
third rounds of the Aberdeen cup
stake, the final three rounds to decide
the winner to be run tomorrow. Mr.
Cannon, owned by W. B. Flack, of
this city, has twice been the winnei
of the Aberdeen cup, and should Mr.
Flack win the same this year, it gives
him permanent possession of the
trophy.
Out of twenty-eight starts the dog's
owned by Mr. Flack -have raised
twenty-six flaes, and prospects seem
to be excellent for his kennel being
the big and final winner. . .
Commerce High BJeven
Ties With Harlan, Iowa
The High School of Commerce
eleven of Omaha battle the fast Har
lan (la.) High school team to a tie,
0-to-0, Saturday afternoon at Harlan.
The Commerce lads proved to be a
much improved team and, while un
ble to score themselves, managed to
completely baffle the shifty offensive
attack of the Iowans.

THREE HIGH SCHOOL
TEAMS NRUMNG
Omaha, Beatrice and Lincoln
Look Like the Best Bets
for State Honors.
MANY "FINDS" REPORTED
' With the elimination of Norfolk
High by thr Omaha school and the de
feat of York High by Lincoln, tho an
rval campaign for the state cham
pionship seems to have, narrowed
down to three teams, with the season
only fairly under way. ' Omaha, Bea
trice and Lincoln loom ifo above all
.the others. Omaha High will meet
both of these teams on their own
fields Beatrice on November 3 and
Lincoln on November 11. Other
teams have put in their annual claim
for state honors, but since they have
no "big teams" on their schedule there
is no way to make comparisons of
their ability.- , i
Wceklv reports from out ' in the
state tell of the finding of some sec
ond Chamberlains. Beatrice has its
Kilpatrick, Lincoln its Griffin, and
from Gothenburg, far out in the state,
Ihe latest star has been discovered in
the person of'Brestel. Omaha doesn't
claim to have another Chamberlain,
but will -be satisfied to call him an
other Platz. This is yChuck" More
arty, the speedy little left half,. who,
although, weighing under the ISO
pound mark, has a good foot ball
head, plenty of speed and grit. Every
time ' Mory" gets through the eqemy s
second line of defense it means a
touchdown,, and he has already dofns
ihis little stunt several times tins year.
