Nebraska University Coach
Preparing Grid Warriors'
1 Greatest Season
This Year.
Lincoln, , Sept 20. (Specials
Looming up as probably the most
powerful foot ball eleven in Ne
braska history, the 1919 Cornhuskers
under the tutelage of their new men
tor, Henry F. Schulte, ' this week
tore off their first batch of drills in
faultless etylev A muddy field, at
times, was the only drawback.
With the Iowa game less than two
weeks off, the coaches devoted much
time to the prospective back field
an instrument which Nebraska woe
fully lacks. Head Coach Schulte
personally took charge of .entrants
headed by Captain Dobson, half-back,
hile his assistant, Schissler,
drilled the line. " .
Open Play Emphasized.
Great btress was laid on open field
work. From the first the coaches em
phasized forward passing and field
running. Turning right angle corners
while running atjull speed was one
of the drilfs that was dealt with con
tinually. Many candidates showed
unusual speed.
The material classed as follows:
Halfbacks: Dobson, Schellenberg,
Bogue, Jobes and Henry;
Quarterbacks: Howarth, McGals
son, Neuman.
Centers: M. Munn, Day.
Fullbacks: Hartley, Lantz, Dale.
Guards: Cox, Young, Hoyt, Shaw,
W. Munn.
Ends: Collins, Lanphere, Wilder,
Kellogg, Dana, Cypreanson.
Roy Cameron is freshman coach.
Practice during the rainy spell
was held at the state farm grounds,
Nebraska field being considerable
muddy. The men turned out in full
uniforms for the first time on WerK
nesday. Freshman candidates were
given apparel the same day. There
were some 40 applicants among the
incoming ranks. The scrubs will
be reinforced by many emergency
players of '18.
Former Stars Repeat
Ted Bogue of North Platte, a half
back, and Mose Dana of Fremont,
an end, were two of possible sensa
tions of the week. Bogue is a pro
duct of ex-Governor Keith Neville
of the western city and startled
high school circles in 1914 with his
brilliant field running. Schulte im
mediately took him in charge.
Dana, a letter man of last year, is
developing greatly as an openfield
runner.
The back field, still unorganized,
will evolve about Captain Dobson,
back, it is thought. The new Husk
er "beef trust," Freddie Dale of
Hartington, (203 lbs. net) who is out
for end, is figured as a possible
fullback. Hartley, last year's vet,
is not eligible, having played under
S. A. T. C. rules. Scheellenberg,
veteran back, may go to quarter.
Howarth, veteran quarter of '18,
may stick; however.
Two other whirlwind possibilities
for the generalship of the 1919
eleven are Dick Neuman of jColum
bus, and McGlasson of Lincoln. The
latter returned only last week from
service in France, where he earned
the Croix de Guerre and the Distin
guished Service Cross, in action.
k Neuman was an all-state basket ball
guard and forward of 1916. .
Veterans Bolster Line.
Wilder, end; Day, center, and
Hubka, tackle, all veterans of the
powerful 1917 team," returned during
the week lending the' final bar of
stability to the ornhusker hopes.
Possibilities are that each will as
sume their old positions on the line.
Dana may go to the other end,
Swanson, Ray and Lyman to the
other tackle. '
Johnny Collins, fast South Omaha
basket ball player, sometimes called
the fastest floor man produced in
the Jristory of Nebraska, is out for
xendl Collins hasn't played for six
years, however. Kellogg and Cy
preanson, the former of Nebraska
City and the later of Lincoln, are
two other star scholastic athletes
who are out for wing positions.
Guards will be amply provided.
' The four games scheduled for
October Iowa. Minnesotar Notre
Dame and Oklahoma are conceded
considerable program, perhaps the
v hardest ever faced by a "big league"
grid team. That three of them are
to be played away from home at
Iowa City, Minneapolis and Omaha,
an added worry. Schulte, however,
is optimistic.
"We'll make a "jab, anyway," he
says.
Defeat Gophers Slogan.
Defeat of the Gophers will be fol
lowed by an uninterrupted string of
victories, it is claimed; befeatvby
Minnesota would bring disaster.
"Doc" Williams, like other coaches
of the Big Ten, is receiving more
than his quota of returned war veter
ans. His downfall on October 11
would be a big feather in Nebraska's
cap.
Syracuse U, which school plays
the Cornhuskers in the annual inter
sectional game on Thanksgiving day,
is captained this year by Alexander,
all-American guard of last year.
The latter is surrounded by a corps
of grid warriors of the east. The
New York school, it is said, will have
to be reckoned with in the settle
ment of -the eastern championship.

EVERYTHING comes to him who wajts. Unless he's waiting . in a
telephone booth. i
Every call nowadays is a long distance call. On the clock.
Statistics show that it now takes twice as long not to get a number
is it did in 1917. Getting a number is tougher than a rubber ham.
1 t
The Bell officials blame the poor service on the war. We know
the kaiser is responsible for prohibition. He chirped that one, two,
three, the war would be over. Einst, he would take Paris. Zwei, Lon
don, and drei, New York. He missed the first two, but New York is dry,
isn't it?
.The Rocky Boulevard to Dublin is a billiard table compared to the
tour of the soup brained sapp who tried to gr,ab a number in the phone
raffle. A phone booth is a form fitting chamber of horrors. You waddle
in and snitch the receiver off the hook. That's like taking the bait off
for you never catch anything with an empty hook. Then you slip a
loose jit in the nickel trap and wait to hear the clams sing.
All conversation on the telephone is accidental. The booths are
sound proof and so are the wires. After a few 70-minute hours, central
jiggles the safety clutch and your nickel pops out like a bat out of hades.
It's heads. Drop it in again and out it skips. Tails. Just like matching
coins. Beautiful way of spending the day without any war tax. You start
with a jitney and end with the finif.
' Life is short and the telephone service is making it shorter. . Ask for
Zobbux 1986. Central pays no attention to the Zobbux and she thinks
the 1986 means the year you want the number. eCall Gimbaffle 5643, Party
B, and you get the number about the same time that a village needs a
subway. '
You can't blame all this on the kaiser. In the first place, the kaiser
loved the telephone. His battle record shows that.
The bird who invented the fireless cooker got the idea trying to
snare a number. After being in the booth for two hours he noticed that
his ears were fried on both sides. AnotherTjimbo was four days trying
to inform his wife that he wouldn't be lfome for three days. The police
found him in the telephone booth pumping the hook like a milkman, but
the old phone had gone dry. They saved the expense of a straitjacket by
just locking the door and taking the whole works to the delirium phonems
ward. ,
They say that a soft-boiled answer turns away wrath. - But a guy
whose language is shimmying with cuss words doesn't want any soft
boiled, grilled, cooked or steamed answers from Central. He wants some
thing out of a telephone book, not a menu. A cuckoo up in Benson waited
six hours for a number and then pulled the" phone out by the roots. He
got a number all right, but he has to do a lockstep to keep it. The police
won't allow him to have a phone in the cell, as the cord is just the right
length for a noose. Outside of that, it ain't much use.
If you pipe a gent in a telephone booth rfiakihg motions like a cinna
mon bear fighting fork-tailed hornets and sqwauking into a receiver like
a jazz trombonist, you will know that peace is here and the abnormal
war conditions are over.
Plestina Willing to Bet
Joe Stecher $25,000 on Side
Manager J. Cr Marsh Writes That Demands of Dodge
Man Are Such That No Promoter Could Meet Them,
But He. Will Wager That Amount and Let Gate
Receipts Go to Charity.
Since Anton Stecher made the re- '
mark recently that his brother, Joe,
would meet Marin Plestina for $25,
000 J. C Marsh, Plestina's manager,
has been trying in some way to
meet the figure and arrange the
match. Marsh has finally put it up
to Stecher. He will make a side
wager of that amount and not
bother with receipts, if Stecher will
do the same
The receipts of a Plestina-Stecher
match, all to go to charity, would
enrich some worthy poor farm or
orphanage to the extent of several
thousand dollars and it is to be
hoped that Stecher will "go
through" with the deal. If he wants
$25,000 for his end he can get it by
lefeating Plestina. If he can't de
feat Plestina - he isn't worth it, so
now is his chance to kill two stones
with one bird. Prove his worth and
get Plestina out of the( way at the
same time. '
Following is the letter that Marsh
writes from Boise, Idaho. He is at
the Oxford hotel in that city and
he says he will be willing to come
to Omaha at any time for a match
with Stecher.
For over two yean I have been chas
ing Joe Stecher and the rest of the
"truet," trying to arrange a match with
any of them against Marin Plestina. I
have made them every offer I could think
of, except the offer of laying down to
them, but they have not accepted, claim
ing as their reason for not meeting Ples
tina that they did not like me. This ex
cuse they made In every city where I
challenged them. It worked pretty well
the first two year and enabled them to
put over aome of the worst bunk ever
handed to a long suffering public My
persistent challenging, however, caused
the wrestling fans to awaken and they
got to wondering If that waa really the
reason 'of their refusal to meet Ples
tina Av challenge In any sporting event
backed by the cash has always appealed
to the fair-minded people of America.
Letter poured in to me from all parts of
America, and even from Alaska and Aus
tralia, asking about the "trust" and also
about Plestina.
It ha been a long, hard battle, but we
have the "trust" on the run, and they
realise that their old excuse about not
liking me has got to be changed to some
thing new, for they know that the public
Is now on that that Is only an excuse and
that fear alone la their only reason. So
a few day ago In Omaha "Tony" Stecher
(brother and part manager of Joe Stech
er) told Jack Lewi that Joe Stecher
would meet Plestina for a guarantee of
125.000 for hi end, win, lose or draw.
When Tony said thla he knew that there
was no chance of any promoter In tha
world offering such an amount. .That's
the reason he said It But he also ex
ploded the old excuse for not meeting
Plestina that they and the reat of the
"trust" hava hid behind for over two
Marin Plestina.
years, that old chestnut of an excuse
they did not like me.
Ever wiestler and true sport knew that
that war only-- an excuse and a very poor
one at that, and now Tony has spilled
the beans completely. Why didn't he show
himself a real sport and say that Joe wauld
wrestle Plestina and let all the gate
money go to the poor of Omaha T That
will suit us exactly. And since Tony
wishes $25,000 to be the price of Brother
Joe'a services we will give him a side bet
tor that amount.
We are ready at any time to meet and

Soccer May Be Introduced
as Public School Major Sport
Introduction of soccer football
into the public schools and business
institutions as one of the major
sports of Omaha this fall is the aim
of members of the Omaha and Dis
trict Soccer Foot Ball league.
The organization, at its first meet
ing of the season Friday evening in
the office of Park Commissioner
Falconer, made plans for populariz
ing this favorite European pastime
with the younger generations of
Americans.
First practice of the season will
be held at 3 o'clock this afternoon
at Miller park. At this time, a
"pitch or soccer field will be laid
out in preparation for the season's
play at this park.
The first business meeting of the
season will be held next Friday
evening at 8 o'clock in the office of
Commissioner Falconer, 402 city
hall.' At this meeting the organisa
tion for the season will be perfected
and officers elected.
Any person interested in soccer
foot ball is invited to attend Fri
day's meeting, and it is especially
desired that representatives of the
four teams in the league be present

NEW BIG LEAGUE
MAY BE FORMED
IF BAN STICKS
American League President
Must Be Forced Out or
Third Loop May Be V
Organised.
New York Sept 20. Threats
have been openly made that unless
Ban Johnson retjres from the Amer
ican league, another base ball league
will be formed. Enough has de
veloped in the Mays case to .show
that Johnson is unfit and disquali
fied on various counts from holding
of iceis president of the American
league. On his own admission Ben
Johnson is a part owner in the
Cleveland club. He had concealed
that fact until it was drawn from
him during an inquiry into the Mays
case, and the manner in which John
son has been conducting the affairs
of the American league.
During the fight with the Federal
league Johnson denounced the inde-
pendent organization for just this '
sort of thing. He grilled the Fed
erals on the ground that the league
represented syndicate base ball. Now
it develops that the Cleveland club
is a syndicate club, and that Ban
Johnson is one- of the syndicate
owners.
Made Game Rediculous.
One of the best-posted men in
base ball says. "For years Ban
Johnson has been making the game
ridiculous because of his inordinate
vanity. He crowded himself into
the limelight that belonged to the
players. He assumed that the base,
ball patrons were more interested
in the strutting and ravings of a
stout old gentleman than they were
in the game itself. Colonels Rup
pert and Huston ofthe New York
Yankees have refused to Compro
mise with the old order that has
threatened the life and integrity of
base ball. . i
The developments in the 'Mays
case have shown that here is no
truce with pouter pigeonism and
the backstairs methods of Johnson
and his ilk. The Mays case is not
the. primary cause of the battle to
oust Johnson. It is merely an in
cident. ,
The political inside of base ball
always has been petty larceny stuff
more or less. The maudlin mutter
ings of certain magnates have bored
the fans time and again. The mag
nates' place is in the back of the
ground, but the average magnate
does not know his place. With the
removal of Johnson or the curtail
ment of his powers there will be
more base ball and less maudlin
magnates, which is a consummation
devoutly to be wished.
May Be Third League.
Unless organized base . ball rids
itself of the stout octopus there is
more than a possibility that there
will be a third big league. The men
behind the fight to oust Ban John
son have the money and the courage
to enter upon this project. Also
they ' have some first-hand knowl
edge of the Johnson methods in
trying to crush oppositions, which
coupled with a knowledge of base
ball and a sincerity of purpose
should augur success. And they
will have the base ball fans behind
them. s
'It was Johnson who introduced
trust methods and trust talk into
base ball, making it more commerce
than sport. People are beginning
to distrust organized base ball as it
is being manipulated today. The
game itself is clean and has kept
free from scandal. There is no
reason why the management of base
ball should not be just as clean as
the game itself. The owners who
have thrown down the gauntlet to
Johnson will fight until it is. If
the old leagues cannot be cleansed
they will start a new league.
Good Time for Reform.
This is as good a time as any to
reform base ball from the top. The
frequently discussed rehabilitation
of the National commission, the
ruling body in base ball, should be
brought about this year. The chair
man of the National commission
should be a man who is not inter
ested in any club or in any league.
As the commission stands today it
cannot hope to have, the confidence
of the fans.
People who go to see base ball
games are not particularly interested
in the personnel of the National
commission, but they want to know
that the National commission is
composed of men who will act not
for any particular interest or groups
of interests, but for the good of
base ball. The body as it now stands
is not competent to make disin
terested decisions for base ball. The
longer the reorganization of the
commission is delayed the worse it
will be for base ball.'
Admission Prices at Yale
Harvard Game Increased
New York, Sept 20. The in
crease price of, Yale-Harvard
foot ball game tickets this fall does
not involve the outlay required to
witness the last' regatta on the
Thames between the Crimson and
the Blue. If should, however, be
regarded as likely that no Yale or
Harvard alumnus who this fall is
paying $100 for a suit of clothes
that cost $50 last year, meeting a 50
per cent raise in the cost of shoes
and the like will begrudge paying 50
cents extra to see a foot ball game,
'unless haply this "little more"
probably that proves to be the straw
that breaks the camel's back.
Princeton, probably will charge
$2.50 instead-'of $2. for the Har
vard game at , Nassau, while the
Elis may be expected to round out
the big thre-prlce schedule in the
case of the Princeton game
at the' Bowl. It is all rather
sad, but on the other hand think
of the inspiration which will
ing foot ball that costs $10 instead
of $5 and wear jerseys that cost $11
instead of $4. ,
Youth Dominant Factor in
Golf Championship Flights
p
Francis Ouiraet Analyzes the Advantages of Youth
Versus Experience as Far as Big Tournaments Are
Concerned. Tells of Tactics of Important .Players.
By FRANCIS OUIMET.
Youth must be served. Never
were truer words spoken than these
in connection with this year's golf
championship. The chap over 25
didn't have a chance and how Bill
Fownee ever reached the semi-finals
is a miracle. But all joking
aside Fowne's richly earned his
place in that round by reason of his
great game.
In the upper half of the draw
it was freely prdicted that Bobby
Jones, the Atlanta boy, would
reach tne tinai round. - ms game
was sound yet brilliant and despite
his youth he is only 17 it was
believed that he would account for
Bob Gardner, a former champion,
who had the time of his golfing
career eliminating Bobby at Merion
three years before. Gardner found
Bobby, a tougher nut than ever for
the boy came through five and four.
Had "Tough" Opponents.
Although his draw was claimed
to be the easier way to the title
Jones had tough boys to beat in
Jimmy Manion and Knepper. But
in each case he knew a bit more
golf than they did so he reached
J - TIM,
tne penultimate rouna witn mu
Fownes. The strain of 36 holes of
match play a day had told too
heavily on Bill. He proved no
matcn ior coDDy aiter me iirst
round.
The lower half was different.
Trouble makers were scattered all
through this draw. You could tell
nothing by name either. For in
stance, my first opponent was Ed
die Clarey, of Philadelphia. Let me
say right here that Clarey can make
shots as well as anyone and many
of his irons were played with mag
nificent results. It took everything
I had to eliminate him two and one.
' Youth Wins Out
Jones can play all shots with the
skill of a master and the confidence
so noticeable in youth. That he
did not win this year means little
while his achievement of reaching
the finals portends much. We have
no doubt that many a champion
ship will fall to his skill and noth
ing will contribute more to their
winning than the experience he is
now getting. Just a ,word about
his temperament, for Bobby has
been freely criticised for displays of
temper. To me this seems unfair.
The only time Bobby becomes
disturbed at himself is when he is
well ahead of his opponent. When
''down" one finds Jones a cool, calm
and determined player; not the hot
headed type that press stories
would have us believe he is. The
fact that he gets mad when he is
leading seems to me to give him
added fighting spirit. Bobby Jones
is a good sportsman and a corking
fine golfer.
Now about Dave Herrortthe big,
good-natured Pittsburgh boy, who
has every reason to feel proud of
his victory. It was by far the most
difficult championship of any yet
held both as to number and quality
of the entries and the test required
of players. ' His outstanding golf
characteristic is disposition. I don't
think Dave Herron could get dis
turbed over anything.
He drives a tremendously long
ball and, what is mor important,
keeps it straight. His swing , is
graceful and beautifully timed. His
irons are firm and have a sting
to them and his mashie pitches are
excellent.
PESEK FAVORITE
FOR MATCH WITH
LONDOS, OCT. 2
Shelton Farmer's Victory
Over Charley Cutler at Al

lar Choice. "
John Pesek, the Shelton wonder,
is expected to enter the ring at the
Omaha Auditorium October 2 t
great favorite over Jim Londos, the
Greek champion.
Pesek and Londos are to wrestle
in a finish match. Pesek's straight
fall victory over Charley Cutler at
Albion, Neb., Thursday night is ex
pected to make him a favorite in the
odds over Londos.
Cutler is the famous veteran who
is used as a test for youngsters
breaking into the game and making
their bid for fame. Many a prom
ising youngster has retired to, the
farm after meeting Cutler. The Chi
cagoan is the fox (jf them all, He
knows every trick of the mat game.
And he has the weight and the
strength.

Cutler beats him he still has to prove
his merit.
But, like Joe Stecher "Pesek
proved equal to the test; He de

What is more, at the conclusion of
the match Cutler publicly announced
that he believed Pesek was the com
ing champion. ' ,
For that reason those who know
wrestling will favor Pesek over Jim
Londos in . their Omaha match.

A game-getting gun
for the cruiser camper tramper
A HUNTING PARTY,
penetrating the jungles
l of Africa, usually carries
in tow a small armory of, rifles,
shotguns and pistols. The black
native acts as porter, carrying an
assortment of guns from which
the white master chooses accord
ing to the nature of the shot.
But the cruiser camper .
tramper of America who travels
"light," wants just one rifle in
his layout. Tjiat rifle must serve
all purposes, for his game may
one day be a deer; another day
a bear. Nor will the hunter want
an elephant gun in his hands for
that occasional shot when some
small game runs across his path.
The cartridge must be heavy
enough to bring down big game,
and inexpensive enough to use
freely on small animals.
A strong, light gun for deer
The Winchester Model 94
Nine Shot Repeater is ideal for
all-round service. , It is strong,
light, well-balanced, easy to
carry and speedy to handle. It
is a sure game-getter, accurate
even for birds, powerful enough
for America's biggest game. It
has been estimated that during
the last ten years more deer and
other big game have been killed
by the famous Winchester
Model 94, .30 caliber, than by
any other combination of rifle
and cartridge.
In addition to being chambered for its
famous .30 caliber cartridge, the Win
chester Model 94 can be had chambered
for the .25-35 Winchester. This is an
excellent cartridge for such small game
as wild geese and turkeys, and yet power
ful enough for deer and black bear. For
greater power, the rifle may be cham
bered for the .32 Winchester Special.
The Model 94 is also chambered for
another group of cartridges the .32-40
and .38-55. '
Boring, chambering
'and rifling
The barrels are bored to micrometer
measurements for the cartridge they are
meant to shoot. The most accurate pre
cision instruments are used to produce
perfect chambering and ball-seating in
the chamber. There is no play for the
cartridge; it is a perfect fit insuring
maximum accuracy and velocity.
Twists and other rifling characteristics
vary with the cartridge and bore. In
rifling the barrel, the exact twist neces- "
sary to produce the best results with a ;
given cartridge is calculated with math
ematical precision.. The accuracy of the
twist is verified by exhaustive practical
tests. From chamber to muzzle the lands
and grooves of the rifling are true to less
than one thousandth of an inch. ' '
What
means
This mark on a Winchester barrel
means that the rifle has passed the
