The , un iversity- band : aroused the rooters with, a number of selections-and Coach Stewart .f in.'; tain Corey and Cameron spoke. The . rally was the most enthusiastic of the year. -i -i-"-- , -j Although the coaches had not in tended to scrimmage the Huskers - last night, it was found wise to change plans and Dr; Stewart put his charges through a stiff drill on new plays for half an hour. Every member of the squad reported and apparently the team ia in fair phys ical trim, although some of the back field men are lugging, bruises from the Iowa tattle. ; ( ' i Stithm to Visit Old Ltve. 4 " Jumbo Stiehm, according to report circulated here today, is going to pay Ins old love a visit and at the same time Dame Rumor says that Stiehm would be glad to return to Nebraska. . It is said that Stiehm has found In diana lacking in foot ball material and spirit and he longs for the old condi tions at eoraska. Mill another rumor is tnat stielim will attempt to schedule a game with the Huskers next fall. There is very little chance of this, however, as the Nebraska athletic board is not very favorable , iu me pian unless me tormer Ne braska mentor would bring his eleven to Lincoln. Bloomington ia out of the question from a financial standpoint and the Missouri Valley conference rules forbid games off of the college grounds. The Indiana boosters want ed me game tor Indianapolis.

CHURCH Traveling 15,000 miles to play ten nis is covering a longer circuit than most .players follow during the tour- nament season. But whon George M Church and ' Harold Throckmorton leave Vancouver, November 30, they will be starting a trip that will take tnem to the Urient and will keep them traveling until March IS, 1917. . Tennis players from the United States are not strangers in Manila. Honolulu or Japan, where this pair is to play, for Californians have been competing with their trans f Pacific ri vals for years. William M. Johnston, C. J. Grimm, Elja Fottrell and Ward Dawson are the most recent represen tatives of this country in these Pacific tournaments. Church and Throckmor ton are the first easterners to make such a trip for several seasons, and so their experience will be watched with more than the usual interest. It is certain that they will attract much attention in the Orient, for they are dashing players, whose spectacuar performances on the court are bound to arouse a gallery's enthusiasm. They hti the ball hard, cover lots of ground and' have a smashing style of play overhead that provides plenty, of uinus, lor inose wno waicn. Church ranked No. 9 in 1914 but is picked by many experts for a higher rating in 1916,' although that cannot be' made known until the ranking HAROLD tHROaOSOBte. committee reports, His record, how. ever, was most unusual, for he defeat ed Armstrong, Mathey, 'Pell, Wash burn, Davis, Beekraan, E. P, Lamed, Rosenbaum, Grimnyntnan, "Whitney, vosneu, Murray,; uytora, Kumagae, Warren 'and Mclaughlin; i He was beaten only by'Davis.TJoyley Williams and Murray. i i. jj.'.v '. Tennis enthusiast will be greatly Interested to see if Churrh ran rife. pose of Kumagae in such summary ijMiion, supposing mat they meet in the tournament for -the championship of the orient, as he did wfani ih met in the National championship. - It was due to Church's wonderful work at tne net that the sensational little Jap did not go' further in ( the Na tional, but Kumagae may have learned something in that meeting which will help him the next time hr f9r Church.

The task of gathering the information to determine what the business con ditions have been during the last year, as compared with former years, is to begin December 4 and is to be com pleted before midnight, December 7. In determining the business condi tions of the country, the United States and Canada will come in for investigation along this line and data will be gathered from the great cities of the area. - In this central section. Omaha has been picked as 'one of the leading marketing centers. The work will be under the direction of the Na tional Research committee and on this committee from this section of coun try, Charles D. Nolen of the Omaha Ad club is named as a member, Past Effects. Two years ago when the European war commenced to unsettle business conditions, the Associated Advertis ing clubs instituted an investigation to ascertain to just what extenfwar had affected, or rather decreased, pur chases of consumers. This investiga tion shows a decrease of 2.3 per cent as compared with the previous year.. In 1913 another investigation alone similar lines waa: made throughout the United States and Canada and then it was ascertained that ui the aggregate, the average " increase American consumption had increased 1S.93 per cent over the previous vear. On this showing the conclusion was reached that the United States was enjoying a period of unprecedented prosperity. This being true, the theory waa that the year 1916 would be finished with a record never be fore approached. - ; - Along Like Line. To ascertain Just what the vear 1916 has brought about in the wav ot Dusiness prosperity Is why the in vestigation is being made at this time. And to secure the required data, the investigation will be conducted along lines similar to those of the two pre vious years. . the investigation will cover the six principal lines of retail .business, as follows; Department stores, groceries. clothing, hardware, jewelry and drug atorc. r - . ' ' Five Question. In conducting' this investigation, no names are asked of dealers, and con sequently no buisness secrets are sought. It is just a olain business proposition and all answers are on a percentage basis. Five questions are asked in gathering the required data. iney are: i . . What is the per cent of increase, or decrease, in your total volume of sales for November, 1916, as compared with November, IVlil, 1 he same question relating to ad vertising expenditures. ihe same question relating to vol- ume of stock on hand. The same question relating to net pront. i What per cent of all money in ac counts on your books October. 31 110, was collected during Novem- oerr . ; ..' ;; Removing the Guess. , Mr. Nolen asserts that when the data from the cities of the United States and Canada is collected it will take all the guess out of business and give definite facts on; which to base sales and advertising efforts during the coming year, The compilation of the data to be undertaken goes into book form for distribution among merchants and business men of the country and is Today's Calendar of Sports Ben eh Show .

FANCY BASE BALL SALARIES PASSE Ban Johnson Says Scale Won't Be So High as During "the War." BACK TO A "SOUND BASIS' Chicago, Nov. 28. Salaries of base ball players in the American league, who were signed at high figures to retain them during the war with the Federal league will hi sharply re duced, B. B. Johnson, president of the league, announced tonight. The game was conducted in an ex travagant manner during the fight with the Federal league, President Johnson said. "Now that the trouble is over," he asserted, "we will have to return to a sound basis one where men who have invested their money in the game stand a chance of obtaining a fair re turn. There will be no renewal of high-salaried 'war' contracts The players must understand that. "We will agree on a new contract at the annual meeting of the Ameri can league here December 14 that will be fair to all concerned. It will be equitable to the players and the club owners.
