NEBRASKA SHOWS
THAT MJ) FIGHT
And If They Show It Against
Notre Dame Harper's Men
Will Be Surprised.
VINDICATION OF STEWART
By FRED S. HUNTER.
If only the Cornhuskers will show
the same spirit, the same courage, the
same vigor and the same fight against
Notre Dame Thursday that they did
against Iowa Saturday that is the
fervent prayer of Nebraska followers
who saw Stewart's men crush the
Hawkeyes, 34 to 17.
For the first time this year the
Cornhuskers gave the new coach a
sample of that old Nebraska fight and
it was some sample, too. The Husker
eleven seemed to be completely re
juvenated. Had Stewart's warriors
battled Kansas with the same effort
and earnestness they fought Iowa, the
score would have been lop-sided.
And if Stewart can hold that fight
in his men for four more days, a lot of
1001 Dau lans are going to De sur
prised at the result of the Notre
Dame clash.
It was an entirely . different team
that played Iowa Saturday. One who
saw Dotn tne Kansas and Iowa games
would be tempted to suspect that
Scwart jabbed his men with a hypo
just before the latter fray. It's a cinch
lie did something to them.
Rhodes Is Some Boy.
Dusty Rhodes played in the back-
held against Kansas. Saturday be
played end on the defense and guard
on the offense. And Dusty quickly
proved that the line is his place. What
Dusty didn't do to those Iowa boys
wasn't worth doing. He spilled inter
ference all over the field. He upset
tne entire side ot tne lowa line. And
time and again he nailed Iowa charg
ers before they could gain an inch.
On one occasion he catapanlted
through, bowled over his opponent on
the line, knocked the interference to
one side on his way and slammed
Jenkins into the earth for a fifteen
yard loss. It happened so quickly it
looked like the rest of the Iowa fine
was just getting started, when Dusty
had finished his work. It looked like
he made just one dive straight
through, getting three men with the
same movement.
Hugo Otoupalik, who has been bat
an ordinary backfield man, was a star
of first magnitude. He made yards
every time he plunged, he was so
dependable that whenever the pinch
arose it was Otie who was given the
ball. Everytime Nebraska got within
striking distance of the Hawkeye
goal, Husker enthusiasts knew it
meant a touchdown, for Otie could
carry the oval through if nobody else
could.
Cameron On the Job.
Cameron, subbing at center for
Moser, was another big factor in the
Husker victory. He played as good
a defensive game at center as was
ever seen in the valley, even out
shadowing Moser in this department
And he had mercury in his shoes, too.
It was Cameron, who, after a forty
yard chase, ran down Davis, the fleet
footed Hawkeye back, when Davis got
away from the rest of the team, after
intercepting a forward pass. It would
have been a hostile touchdown, but
for Cameron.
The Nebraska backfield played
great foot ball Saturday, but it was
the line that shone. That line played
a wonderful game and its work easily
stood out over that of the backfield,
which is rather unsual as it is the
backfield men who have the best op
porunities to catch attention.
Vindication of Stewart.
The victory over Iowa was a con
clusive vindication of the Sewart
method, the side-pass without a quar
terback. Some criticism of this sys
tem has been heard, but it ceased
abruptly after Saturday.
A person who had never seen Ne
braska play before would have gone
home averring that "Joe" Caley was a
great line plunger. Those who have fol
lowed Husker foot ball, know that
Caley is no line plunger. He's too
light. But that Stewart system pushed
Caley through the line and his speed
and shiftiness enabled him to increase
the distance. The same applies to
Johnny Cook. They both looked like
line plungers, because of the Stewart
style, but they are not because they
haven't the weight or the drive. So
it was a victory for the coach as well
as the team.
If the Cornhuskers put up the same
kind of game .against Notre Dame
they did against Iowa, it's going to
be a tough battle and a close score
and Nebraska has an even chance to
win. But, of course, if they refer
to their lackadaisical playing of the
Jayhawk contest but then we're hop
ing they won't.

Three Coyote
Stars WU1 Not Be
In Line Thursday
Vermillion, S. D., Nov. 26. (Spe
cial.) This is a bear story about the
Coyotes. Here are the bare facts. Be
cause of bruises and accumulated in
juries, Captain Ferdinand Duncan
the 200-pound leader of the South
Dakota eleven, may not be able to
play against Creighton Thanksgiving
day. 1 his is merely a probability,
However, a more undisguised blow to
south Dakota s chances is the physi
cal condition of Frank McCormick,
190-pound half back, who has starred
in every game this fall. It is unlikely
that McCormick can be used against
Creighton university. Tom Caffey,
quarter back and valuable back fielder
on offense and defense, is another
who must be counted out of the South
Dakota machine all fall. Director
McCormick and Assistant Coach
Johnson are laboring with might and
main to key up the remnant of the
squad and evolve an effective lineup
for the big Thanksgiving game.
Carter Riegel, Harold Sprague and
Don McKinnon will have to fill the
empty shoes of the heroes who have
fallen in the fray in the last two or
three games. All three are worthy
young men and likely to prove effec
tive in the Creighton battle. Don Mc
Kinnon demonstrated his worthiness
by booting a field goal in the Michi
gan Aggie game, one of the bright
spots of the South Dakota gridiron's
record of 1916. Mr. Riegel, true to
his name, is king of South Dakota
punters, and his worthy leg has been
worth many a yard in defensive tac
tics. Harold Sprague is a versatile
player, good on offense and defense,
a dependable ground gainer when the
ball is entrusted to him, and a hard
man to errenrnvent on the forward
pass.
Nonpareils Lose
To Bluffs Team
Possessed of a stronger line and a
backfield which battled like Trojans,
the Council Bluffs Longcways,
thought by many on this side of the
river to be an inferior bunch, grabbed
off a lead on the champion Nonpareils
and won, 13 to 0.
Overconfidence on the part of the
Nonpareils upset their asoirations and
instead of playing their customary
peppery game tney coughed up a con
sumptive brand of foot ball.
The first Quarter terminated with
the score knotted, but during the sec
ond period tne Longeways got busy
and pushed the ball over the eoal
twice before the Nonpareils came out
of their trance. Mcintosh scored via
the forward pass method and II.
Brewick registered touchdown num
ber two. One goal was kicked.
According to the original agreement
made prior to the game, the Longe
ways are to nlav a return eame at
Luxus park next Sunday. The lineup:

einoi.es.
By FRANK QUIGLEY.
Skill of the Athletics to successfully
negotiate the aerial attack is what
triumphed over the doughty Ben Ken
nedy Colls yesterday afternoon and
cinched the Class B championship.
The 6nal score was 12 to 0, in favor of
the Athletics.
The Kennedy Colts bathed viciously
against every inch of ground gained
by their opponents and although their
defensive work was superb as far as
straight foot ball is concerned they
were unable to break up cannon ball
passes shot by Arthur Moran. These
passes in most cases proved irresis
table, otherwise the contest would
have terminated with the score
knotted.
The first quarter ended with each
squad drawing a blank, but toward
the expiration of the second quarter,
Moran heaved the ball to Morton,
who winged it twenty yards at a ten
second clip for the initial touchdown.
Things were going along on fiifty
fifty order during the third quarter,
when with only a few minutes to play,
Moran boosted the oval to Morton,
who trapped the ball and gained fif
teen yards, being downed on the two
yard line. Fletcher plunged through
the line on the next play for the bal
ance. Uoal was missed.
The touchdown did not serve to dis
hearten the Colts for they came back
and tought hard in the final quarter,

provided that they can set forth the
conditions.
Art Moran's passing featured the
quarrel and although he is a Class A
foot ball player, the losers did not
protest against him.
Fletcher was the chief ground
gainer for the Athletics and he
proved to be a real demon, picking
the soft spots.
Gus Carlson, Nordstrom and
Schrum were continually in the lime

Cornhuskers trounce the Hawkeyes.
One of the "dips" tried to lift a $1,-

was detected and Mr. Dobson im
mediately grabbed him and demanded
his property. The thief insisted in his
innocence, but, still maintaining a hold
on his prisoner, Mr. Dobson started a
search for the law. This frightened
the captured pickpocket's partner who
ostensibly picked the stud up from
the floor, exclaiming "Why here's
your diamond."
The pickpockets had fleeced some of
the Nebraska lads out of small sums
before they tried to get Mr. Dobson's
diamond, but their' failure with him
frightened them into suspending op

Yesterday rang down the curtain
on the largest middlewest tournament
ever held in the association at St.
Louis. One hundred and seventy-one
five-man teams, 300 two-man teams
and 650 individual entries were re
ceived and most of those have already
competed. This huge entry list cre
ated a prize fund of $10,500 to be di
vided up among the forty-three high
five-man teams, sixty-five two-man
teams and 103 individuals.
The visiting entry surpasses that of
previous tournaments, many of the
outside teams being new additions to
the ranks of the association.
Besides the magnitude of the entry
list other conditions were of the high
est quality. The alleys, scores, tour
nament management and entertain
ment were the best possible. The an
nual meeting was the best ever held
and several radical changes were
made in the association's constitution.
At this meeting, President George
Sholtz of Des Moines was re-elected
H. C Menne of St. Louis, first vice
president, re-elected; C. E. Ellis,
Sioux City, second vice president, re
elected; C. L. Weekes, third vice

town, fourth vice president, re
elected; George C. Lowe, Kansas

Locker of Des Moines, secretary. Des
Moines was chosen to entertain the
next meeting of the association, after
a hard fight on the floor with I'eoria,

New Alleys Ready Soon.
While Omaha teams did not break
any records, they rolled good totals
and fared well in the singles and
doubles. With the big tournament off
of their minds, the local pin tumblers
can now give their attention to an
other big event, which is scheduled
to take place during the coming week,
probably on Thanksgiving day, if
plans work out. At this time, the
doors of the new Omaha alleys on
Harney street will be thrown open to
the public
Work on this new home for bowlers
is being rushed to completion and
when finished, will present the fin
est bowling alley layout in the coun
try. Ten first-class alleys, fully equip
ed and without a post or obstruction
of any kind to break the wide ex
panse, will be the scene presented to
the bowling public. The equipment
in front is of the latest design and
in addition to this a large balcony
will seat a large number, who daily
watch the matches and playing. Seven
leagues are already organized and
ready to commence activities.
The matches in the All-star Omaha
league will be rolled on the Farnam
alleys Friday evening of this week,
instead of Thursday. The change was
made on account of the regular sched
uled night falling on Thanksgiving.

HEW POWERS ROLE
IN THE "BIG NINE"
Ohio State, by Winning West
ern Conference, Will De
mand Better Schedule.
GOPHERS ARE WHIBLWINDS
Chicago, III., Nov. 26. Sweeping
changes in the makeup of the 1917
foot ball schedules of the "Big Nine"
probably will be made as a result of
the upsets of the 1916 season, which
closed with Saturday's games.
The so-called "Big Four" of the
Western conference Minnesota, Chi
cago, Wisconsin and Illinois are de
clared to have held sway in the schedule-making
in previous years, leaving
Ohio State, Northwestern, Indiana,
Purdue and Iowa to shift for them
selves. Ohio State, which won the confer
ence championship Saturday by de
feating Northwestern, probably will
demand a more imposing list of games
for next season. Coach Wilce of the
Buckeyes, it is reported, will attempt
to arrange games with Minnesota and
Chicago in 1917. Northwestern is ex
pected to back up Ohio State in in
sisting on a choice selection of dates.
The playing of "Chick" Harley. the
dashing right halfback of le cham
pionship Ohio state eleven, whose
sensational work spelled defeat for
Northwestern in the title game Satur
day, stamps him as an eligible candi
date for ail-American honors in the
opinion of western critics. Harley
scored one of the two touchdowns
that defeated Northwestern, kicked a
goal from held and was a power in
defensive tactics.
Gophers Mystery.
Although the wonderful Minnesota
eleven may not have a claim to a
championship title, close followers of
the gridiron sport are agreed that the
team is one of the greatest foot ball
machines developed in the west in
years. '
The line attack of the eleven in its
game with Chicago was an attack of
eleven men in every play, each doing
the exact thing expected of him. The
49 to 0 defeat of Chicago was the
worst the Maroons have ever suffered.
In offensive Minnesota was so pow
erful that only three times during the
game, was it compelled to punt. Only
twice was Chicago able to made first
down without the aid of a penalty.
Frequently the Gophers abandoned
playing straight foot ball and thrilled
the crowd with perfect execution of
forward passes for long gains.
Two of Saturday's conference
games resulted in scoreless tics.
Neither Indiana nor Purdue was able
to put over a score in their annual
fame at Lafayette, and Wisconsin and
llinois fought through four periods
without a tally.
Honors for the first half of the Wis
consin-Illinois game swung heavily on
the side ot the lllini, but the Kadgers
put up a brilliant defense in the sec
ond half and kept their goal from
danger. Purdue menaced the Indiana
goal three times and was credited
with outplaying the Hoosiers, but
lacked the necessary punch to put the
ball over.
