! the ball on the Hwkeyei' two-yrd
line. Otopalik promptly plunged over,
but again the referee called him back,
.' and penaliied Nebraska five yarda to
' boot, but the demon Otopalik was
not to be denied by any reteree.
Three Times to Count
Cook hurled short forward pail
to him, and the big full-back carried
it over. Th Cornhuskeri had to
' make the touchdown three times in
order to make it count, but they did
it ,
Corey booted the goal just as the
' ' whistle blew, denoting the end of the
, half. The half ended, Nebraska, 20;
Iowa, 10.
Iowa, in the first quarter, like the
first, had a slight advantake. The
i Hawkeyes kept the Cornhuskeri
from scoring, and they garnered a
, touch down themselves, when Van
Lackum received caley's bad fumble
and ran firty yards for a touch down.
But the Cornhuskeri came into
. their own again in the fourth quar
' tcr, and added fourteen more points
to the final count . ,
A bunch of forward passes, with
the ever-active Otoupalik on the re
ceiving end, coupled with a third
vard tnrint bv Calev. lave the Hus-
kers a touch down during the first
few minutes of the period, and a short
V time before the game was called Dob

Laun and ran twenty yards for in
other touch down. Corey kicked both
goals, making the final score, rebrai

- The Cornhuskeri showed com
nlete reversal of form today. One
who saw their shiftiest play against
. Kansai would hardly have reeogniied
them. They looked like an entirely
different eleven. They just played
: straight foot ball, only applying a
scattered few fancy formations, but
they had that old Nebraska fight
1 and a better team than Iowa would
have fallen before them, :
Otoupalik, whose . line plunging
: against Kansai was nothing to brag
. about showed the same'kind of stuff
the wonderful Halligan and the great
Rutherford used to show. Caley ran
' the team like a general. Once or twice
i lie made a mistake. Hit fumble alone
proved costly, but the rest of the
time hil work ksi Irreproachable. .

played great foot ball. One time

footed Hawkey quarter, for a fifteen
' yard loss before Jenkins could get
, started. "
' Shaw constantly broke up line
' plays before they could get under
way, and he and Rhode opened up
. holes time and again for Otopalik
and Dobson to plow through.
Cameron, subbing for Moser, wae
' never caught napping for a minute,
and filled the Omaha lad's shoes In
. , a most capable manner.
' Penaltiee Com Often.
Nebraska wa heavily penalised
throughout the game. Referee Birch
... evidently was punled by Stewart's
v ' aide pass play, and repeatedly he ac
's.suced the Huskers of being In mo-
tiort when the ball, was pissed.
Stewart tried to explain the sys
tem to him after the first half, but
he refused to listen to him. Nebras
ka rooterl believed the referee was
wrong. Iowa supporters of course
took the other view point.
: About six thousand persons wit
nessed the clash, and they saw a real
foot ball game, a game full of thrills
every inch of the way.
The game started with Captain Tim
Corey kicking off to Becker on Iowa's
thirty-three-yard line. Captain Laun
immediately punted to Nebraska's
twenty-five yard line, and Dobion, in
returning the kick, lost many yards,
his punt only traveling to Iowa a for-
yt-five-yard mark.
j. , Exchange of Points.
Laun punted back to Nebraska's
' ten-yard, and Dobson returned by
; puting to Nebraska'i thirty-five line.
Here the Hawkeyea opened their at
, tack and formed a pass from Laun to
, Jenkins was good for twenty-sin
. yards, placing the ball Nebraska'a
"nine-yard mark.- Scott plunged for
- four yards, after which Davis carried
j the pigskin to the one-yard line, and
'-the over, Laun booted the goal,
j An eight-yard run by Jenkins, fol
lowed by a penalty of fifteen yards
'charged against Nebraska, gave Iowa
'the ball on the Huskers forty-yard
line, and Davis kicked perfect drop
.kick squarely through the posts.: The
period ended a moment later,
Caley in the Mix.
' At the start of the second quarter
i Nebraska had the ball on its own
forty-one-yard mark. Otoupalik then
. jnlunged five yards and Caley made
. 'five more, after which Caley made a
jipcctacular. twenty-five-yard run to
Howa's twenty-eight-yard line. '
I Caley made five. Otoupalik made
"ten. Caley slid oft tackle for aeven,
'Otoupalik made two and Caley made
first downs and put the oval on Iowa'a
, five-yard line. Otoupalik went over
in two plunges. Corey missed goal.
, Corey kicked off and Davis, on the
.first play, fumbled on Iowa's twenty-five-yard
line. Shaw recovering. Caley
'slid off tackle for six and then for ten
..-rds. A short forward pass, Caley to
Jioupalik, netted six, after which
'alev went the remainder nf the verrts
iy first downs.'
The ball was on the Hawkeyes'
jtif-yard line and Otoupalik took it
ler. Corey kicked goal.
Alter an exchange of punts, Ne-i-aska
took the ball on the Hawkevea'
o ty-six-vard line. . A forward nana
t. ey to kiddell, was good for thirty-
four yards, after which Nebraska
made three touchdowns, of which one
counted ai related before. Corey
kicked goal and the half ended: Ne
braska, 20; Iowa, 10.
Von Lackum Itaget Run,
Th only Startling play of the third
quarter was Von Lackum'a fifty-yard
run for t touchdown. Caley signalled
for a forward Dasa. A Hawkeye line
man broke through and blocked the
pass. Caley attempted to run with
the ball, but waa downed, and in fall
ing fumbled. Von Lackum picked the
ball up in the middle of the field and
aprinted for a touchdown. n naa a
clear field and Hueker pursuers failed
to catch him.
At the start of th fourth quarter
Mr. Otoupalik intercepted a forward
pass from Laun on the hity-yara line.
A pass, Caley to Otoupalik, netted six,
after which Caley squirmed through
for three and Otoupalik six. Another
pass, Cook to Otoupalik, netted aix
yarda and Caley ataged another sen
sational run, this time for thirty yards,
placing the ball on lowa'i five-yard
mark. Caley went four yards and
Otoupalik took it over. Corey kicked
goal.
Dobson Add Another.
About twb minutes before the game
ended Dobson grabbed a forward pass
from Laun and ran twenty yards for
a touchdown, which made the icon
34 to 17.
Statistics of the same prove con
clusively Nebraska' superiority. The
Cornhuikers gained from scrimmage
a total of 370 yarda, as against sixty
five for the Hawkeyes.
Nebraska made first downa twenty
on times, the Hawkeyea only two
times. Nebraska attempted seventeen
forward passes, of which seven were
successful for ninety-one yards. Iowa
essayed aix passes, one of which net
ted twenty-six yard. Th other failed,
Nebraska waa penalised fifty yards,
whil Iowa did not auttcr penalty.

star end It South High, proved inval
uable in th game with West Point
Friday which the Southi won, 19
to 13. With th scora 13 to 0 in favor
of West Point at th end of th first
half, Corr waa shifted from end to
fullback, th place vacated by Nestor,
and the table were turaed. An of
fensive waa started that brought two
touchdowns in the third aoarter and
another in the fourth.
two rtguUsa were missing from
th South lineup whett th lame
started., Nestor, fullback, waa out on
account of delinquent Itudiei and
Kugie, heavy tackle, missed the train
by twenty minutea. Despite this hand
icap, the team ataged comeback
that wai little less than sensational,
considering the powerful Norfolk
team had barely deflated the Weit
Pointer! by a score of 14 to 1.
Th West Point touchdown! were
made on practical flukes, the first
after Adams, left end, scooped up t
fumble at th kickoff and raced t
few yards to th goal line, and th
second on a trick play. Denison, IaH

Yell Aids Corbett
To Become Champion
James J. Corbett wai in 1 Fifth
avenue, New York, hotel recently,
when a little old Irishman made his
way through the crowd of Corbett
admirers and, grabbing the once
famous pugilist by the hand, said:
"Say, don't you remember me, Mr.
Corbett?" '
"Don't know that I remember you,"
replied Gentleman Jim.
"Well, you certainly ought to re
member me look again."
Corbett aized the fellow up criti
cally, but could not place him.
"Why, Jim Corbett, I'm the fellow
who eat back of your corner at New
Orleans twenty-four yeara ago on
Tuesday and yelled at you, 'You're
not Irish if you don't lick him in the
next round.' And you jumped from
your corner at the sound of the bell,
and with a right-hand jolt knocked
Sullivan out and became the champion
of the world. I alway will believe that
I made you the champion."
DREYFUSS MAKES :
WAR ON WISH
Pittsburgh Magnate Has Plan
to Fire Herrmann, Johnson
and Tener from Court.
WANTS NEUTBALS ON JOB
New York, Nov. 11. Barney Drey
fuss has decreed that there must be
a new National commission in bate
ball, 10 it's time to get busy picking
the successors to Ban Johnson. John
K. Tener and Garry Herrmann. So
far the candidates have .been a bit
backward about coming forward. Per
haps that is Jue to the fact that two
members of the commission serve
without salary, while the chairman
draws only $5,000 a year for putting
in $10,000 worth of time and absorb
ing $1,000,000 worth of abuse.
If Ban, Garry and John can get
hold of Barney and cool him out,
they may be allowed to keep their
jobs. However, 'there is little hope
for them now. Barney has had his
mind made up ever since Garry Herr
mann, his little National league pal,
voted Flayer George Sisler into the
American league. Hence, Barney is
coming to the league meetings with
plans and specifications for a new
commission.
Dreyfuss - has already indicted
Herrmann. In case it is necessary for
anybody to bring charges against
Johnson, Johh J. McGraw will read
ily oblige. Casey Stengel is willing
to go on any note of protest against
Governor Tener, because the gover
nor fined him that time Quigley put
him out of the game at the Polo
grounds.
It is understood that Dreyfus will
urge the appointment of three men
who have no financial interest in base
ball and yet have the rood of the
game at heart They must be neutral
m all respects. Dreyfuss' slate i not
known.
Peace i Worse.
.The time has come when the "war
babies" of base ball can apply Gen
eral Sherman's definition of war to
the blighting peace that has settled
over the national game; One year
ago the Federal league wa threat
ening to put a ciub ih New York, the
rival leagues there were thrusting fat
contracts under the noses of the more
desirable players, and an athlete, after
a visit to his employer, often had to
keep his hands in his pocket to pre
vent the benevolent magnate from
stuffing some advance mbney in them.
Those good old day have gone.
The Feds are remembered only when
a club owner peruses a contract that
has another year or two to run. In
the major leagues the club owners
have not even thought about sending
out contracta for 1917. There is no
place for the boys to jump this winter
and those who are out in th cold will
wait until after Christmaa to receive
the bad newa through the mails.
Perhaps forty players in the Na
tional . league are . protected for
another year under their war-time
contracts. Most of the lads who
signed the non-reserve documents in
1914, however, refused to bind them
selves for more than two yeara. Some
of these players will be in the minors
next year, and with them will go per
haps eight or ten of former Federal
leaguera who were out of place in
fast company last season. '

REAL THANKS HOW
University of Nebraska Clashes
With Notre Dame to Cele
brate Foot Ball's Return.
0MASAITS WILL SEE CAME
By JAMES E. LAWRENCE.
Lincoln, Nov. 25. (Special.) Foot
ball makes ita bow a a part of the
turkey day menu of Cornhusker foot
ball fans for th first time in the last
six years, following the reinstatement
of the popular college pastime to the
good graces Of the 'Missouri Valley
conference as a Thanksgiving day
feature. .: . " "
Just six years ago the bubbling
over of the joy and gloom of Mis
souri and Kansas rooters in Kansas
City resulted in the conference put
ting a ban on turkey day games and
it stuck until last season when the
conference heads harkened to the
frantic appeals of th College man-,
ageri to permit them to make a
"cleaning'' on turkey day. From a
financial standpoint the turkey day
game recognized no rival. .
Powerful Enemy.
The Husker are particularly for
tunate this year in having Notre
Dame, recognized a oeie of the most
powerful gridiron machines in the
country, for a turkey day attraction.
The only thing which will prevent
Reed from acquiring large share of
the state's wealth for the Cortrhusker
athletic fund next Thursday it lack
of seating capacity. Th reservation
of Seats is the largest In advance lit
the history of the game and practi
cally U of the Choice seats are gone.
Athletic Manager Reed plan to build
large bleachers at each end of the
field and will endeavor to accom
modate all who come. Reed estimates
that net less than 11,000 people will
see the Notre Dame-Nebraska com
bat. Word comes from Omaha that two
special trains will be run from that
city fdr the accommodation of the
foot ball fans. A solid block of 500
seats went to Omaha. Central
City rooterl planked down the money
for a block of 100 seats and will oc
cupy a section in the grandstand.
Beatrice will lehd fifty, including all
of the members of the Beatrice High
school foot ball teams. Hastings,
Grand Island, Columbus, Fremont,
Fairbury, Nebraska City and Hebron
will all be represented with big dele
gations, '
' ; Many Veterans.
1 Notre Dame comes to Lincoln with
one of the greatest elevens in ita his
tory since that school attained a
dominating position in western foot
ball. Seven of the eleven men play
ing this year are veterans of the great
machine which Coach Jess Harper
brought to Lincoln last year W meet '
a ,20-to-19 defeat in one of the most
thrilling gridiron battlee of the West. .
Assistant Coach Dick Rutherford
has seen the Indiana eleven in action
three times.
Rutherford Confident
"We have a chance against Notre
Dame 'said Rutherford, who has been
counted pretty fair judge of foot
ball. "If the boya go in there with
the right fighting spirit we will win.
Notre Dame has a whale of team.
I haven't seen any such a line in my
experience. Four of the men top the
scales at over 200, but Harper has hot
sacrificed speed and fight for weight.
Our line has shown its worth and I
predict battle royal between those
two let of forwards."
Dr. Stewart is another Husker, who
refuses to be frightened Over the
hopelessness of the Notre Dame
game.
"I spent some time during the sum
mer with the Notre Dame boys," said
the head coach, "and I found all of
them are looking forward to the Ne
braska game with more than ordinary
interest. They figure that what hap
pened here last year was an accident
and thev promise that there will be
no accident again this season. Notre
Dame has one of the strongest elevens
m the country end it will require Ne
braska' best efforts to win."
Open Play Are Hop.
Nebraska expects to meet dan
ling array of open plays in the Notre
Dame game. The Hoosiera have re.
peatedly demonstrated their ability to
use the forward pass and Kansas
made the Huskers look sick by using
tnis piay last Saturday, it baffled in
the forward pass then Notre Dame
can rely upon Cofall and Bergman,
two speed merchants, and Miller and
Backman, two line plungers, to batter
their way down the field.
