one of the prettiest place kicks ever
seen on Nebraska field sailed over the

three-point margin on their hated
rivals. The kick was forty yards and
was sufficiently long and high to have
been made from the fifty-yard line.
After the goal Lindsey kicked off

Ames, la., Nov. 18. (Special Tele

Ames today, 19 to 16, but the game
was not played that close, nor was
the difference between the teams that
clashed in the struggle for the state's
gridiron supremacy that far apart.
Both elevens played foot ball, but
every break in the luck was in Iowa's
favor. The third quarter and a fum

of Ames. When an Ames back
dropped the leather on an end run
it -was then that Ames saw its state
championship go to Iowa City.

The ball was close to the middle of

lying in a funny way behind the

Tucker, was downed. Duncan, walking
around for his health, put his peepers
on the lonesome ball and went over
about forty yards for a touchdown.
He was half way to the goal before

In the fourth period Iowa had some
more luck, which was worth two
points on the blackboard. Ames was
punting out from behind goal, and
the attempted punt was blocked. The
ball bounded back into the Ames

Ames man and an Iowa man
trampled over the poor, helpless spec

Following the action of the minor

permit each league to fix its own salary
and player limits, representatives of
several minor clubs who declined to
be quoted, have stated efforts will be
made at the annual meeting of their
leagues to increase both the salary
and the player limits. Among these
is the Southern association, several
members of which have admitted pri
vately that a movement is on foot
to induce the league at its annual
meeting, next month in Nashville, to
raise the salary limit from $2,800 to
$3,200 or 3,500, and to increase the
player limit for each team from four

Mushroom Prices
Keep Moving Upward
(Correspondence of Tba Associated Preoa.)
Berlin, Nov. 10. For no explain
able reason except speculation mush
rooms have soared in price to such
a height that the authorities are be
ing called on to step in, establish
maximum prices, or take some simi
lar measure to keep them within the
reach of the' common people.
This season mushrooms are so
plentiful that the price paid by the
wholesaler to those who gather them
ranges from 30 to 40 pfennigs a
fiound. Even at this low rate fami
ies during the summer made from
80 to 100 marks a day by making ex
cursions into the country and pick
ing as many mushrooms as they
could carry.
Notwithstanding, this superabund
ance of the plants has not tended in
the slightest to keep the retail prices
down. Today mushrooms sell at re
tail for from 110 to 12S prennigs a
'pound.

(Correspoiideiioa ot Tb Associated Proas.)
Vilna, Russia, Nov. 1. Because the
price of- soaps and such necessities for
washing as starch, borax and the like,
has increased beyond the reach of
the poor people, it is proposed to es
tablish in Vilna a number ot com

those who cannot afford to pay dearly
for cleanliness.
Just how much the local inhabitants
have been able to do for themselves,
through the agency of twenty-five
"Achieser Societies," or institutions of
brotherly help, is indicated by the six
months' report of the main organiza
tion, just issued.
According to this report the twenty-five
branch societies in all the por
tions of Vilna took in during the last
half year just over $15,000 and ex
pended a little more than $16,000 in
helping a total of 50,000 persons.

the conditions and tho distance it u a
fair nhowtnir.
Three cities will be In the battle for next
season's tournament Peoria, Des Hoines and
Kansas City. Des Moines Is the favorite
among most of the middle west members.
It Is centrally located, ta the homo of Presi
dent George Strotz and Secretary Locker,
also of the ever-popular "Dad" Hopkins,
on whose alleys the tournament would be
held, and In addition to this it Is Des
Moines' turn. Peoria has always been a
good supporter of the association, but It Is
considered too far east, and In addition to
this a tournament In Peoria would make It
a St. Louis-Chicago tournament on account
of the number of teams these two cities
would enter. Kansas City wants the tourna
ment, but the Kansas City delegation will
probably swing over to Des Moines support
at the last minute. The Peoria delegation
will be a large one and they may land
:he meet by strength of superior numbers.
Thirty-one teams entered from there and
all will be on hand to vote.
The Capitol Alley five of Indianapolis

ment officials were anxious to receive at

Bowling Notes.
The Luxus are still having things their
own way in the Omaha league.
Lincoln bowlers did not take kindly to the
fact that the lineup on the Brand els team
received a 240-pln handicap In the recent
handicap tournament held In their home
town. Weekes, Terrell and Fan ion each
received sixty pins. Cain received forty
eight and McCoy twelve. They easily
knocked off first money with a 3,016 score.
Al Krug still threatens to do tho come
back. A few 600 totals ware rolled last week,
which shows that Omaha bowlers are round
ing Into shape.
The M. E. Smith aggregation, winners of
the first round championship In the Mer
cantile league, expect to repeat In the sec
ond whirl. The Orchard A Wllhelm and
Pax ton-Gallagher crews also have designs
on the first place, and a hot contest is due
to be held.
Several leagues are awaiting the opening

higher than those of seasons past.
