Central high school was elimin ated' from the race for the cham pionship of the state yesterday, when the lads from the Beatrice high school defeated them in the fastest and closest game played on the local lot this season, by a score of 3 to 0, at Rourke park. The de feat came in the second quarter when Bloodgood, the fullback on the visiting teafi and the fastest man in the state, booted the pig skin between the poles for a three point place kick. The Beatrice team, outweighed the Purple and White warriors 12 pounds to the man. The visiting team averaged about 160 pounds, , while the local eleven tipped, the beam at 147 pounds. In the .first quarter, Beatrice kicked the ball off of the mound to Bobby Robertson, who gained 10 yards.

Swoboda re ceived the 10-yard boot and gained IS yards. Bobby Robertson then pierced through the Beatrice center and gained 30 yards. This was the closest that the local high school chaps were able to come to the vis itors' goal. A costly fumble 'was then recovered by Burgess on the seven-yard line. Beatrice was 'then forced to punt, and upon another fumble by the Central aggregation, Beatrice again received the ball. After many attempts to go around ends Beatrice was forced to punt. Swoboda received the well-directed punt and dashed IS yards around the left wing. Beatrice was penal ized five yards for off side. Bobby Robertson then smashed through the line for 10 yards. The quarter ended with Beatrice having the ball on her 20-yard line. Beatrice Punts. Beatrice punted on the first play of the next quarter. Swoboda then raced around the left end for 15 yards, just long enough to have his team penalized IS yards for holding. After a few attempts to break through the Beatrice well-holding line, the visitors were given the ball. Beatrice was forced to punt to Swo boda, who returned the ball IS yards. Robertson then tried to gain vta the aerial route and passed to Swo boda for five yards.' This pass was the only successful one throughout the game. . - , N - Beatrice then plunged through the Central line for downs. Blood good, the fullback on the Beatrice squad, dropped a 35 yard kick over the poles for the only score of the game. Beatrice then kicked off to Cen tral who barely had caught it, be fore the whistle blew. ' ' Central kicked off to Beatrice for the initial play of the second half. Swoboda downed Beatrice -after gaining five yards. Beatrice punted to Campbell who squirmed throgh the line for 10 yards. On a three man play, Campbell, Robertson, Swoboda, the latter gained 15 yards. Another fumble on Central's part gave the ball to the visiting ag gregation.

HUSKERS FACE DEFEAT IN GAME WITH MISSOURI Captain and Six Veterans Out of Lineup; Back Field Suffers Loss of Elmer Schellenberger. Columbia, Mo., Nov. 7. (Special.) With Capt. Paul Dobson and six veterans of the varsity, including two backfield stars, Elmer Schellen berger, halfback, and Harold Mc Glasson, quarterbalk, out of the game tomorrow, the Cornhuskers lace the possibility of a cuting de feat in their annual clash with the University of Missouri here Satur day afternoon. Two liger veterans, ipnnggate, taclcle, and Kolb, center, are out for the season, due to serious in juries. Coach Schulte announced that the game will see three Husk ers who nave not played in a game this season, Triplett, center, Young, guard and Russell, halfback, start ing the play. Russel is an Omaha High star. Expects Big Crowd. Indications were that the Missour ians will entertain another of their large crowds. Upwards of 7,000 spectators are expected. The ordi nary game here, brings out about 3,000 people. The record in history is the great clash with Kansas, in 1917, which drew 10,000 persons. The . Huskers arrived Friday morning and shortly after lunch fhe head coach ran them through a fast signal drill. The Nebraska crowd began to arrive on the early afternoon trains. It is estimated that between 300 and 500 Nebras kans, principally from Omaha and Lincoln, will be here for the game. Missouri students, Friday evening, held a. "war dance" through the main streets. ' Weights Even. Coach Schulte spoke for the Husk ers. r ' In point of weights the two teams are' practically on even terms. That the local crowd is expecting a bet ter showing from the Huskers than has been snown by them in recent games with Ames and Oklahoma was evidenced in the betting. No odds could be obtained on Nebraska. Wagers were few, but those that were made were that the- game would result in a tie, with a possible chance of each eleven scoring a touchdown. Neither coach would make a state ment. . From rumors emanating from the Tiger stronghold, however, it was said that Coach Miller, though ex pecting a terrific fight from the Ne braska boys, was looking forward to a slightly better score.' Coach Schulte was pessimistic, declaring that witfi substitutes in his lineup scored. The playing of Sam Nice tero, Merle Kline, Lewis Camero, and Lewis Mittlman was a feature for the business lads as they stopped all line plunges the Central ites attempted.

Twenty well seasoned vounz men arrived in Omaha yesterday noon to represent Colorado college on the gridiron this afternoon against Creighton. Coach "Poss" Parsons took his men for a short walk during the aft ernoon. About 5 o clock they saun tered up to Creighton field, the scene of today's battle, and looked over the gridiron. .They inspected tne creighton gymnasium and vis ited with Creighton men. Members of the Tiger eleven deny reports that they are sure of a vic tory over Creighton. Coach Par sons says he is sure it will be a good game. Other than that he has nothr ing to offer. May Be Some Changes. Neither Parsons nor Coach Mills would announce anything definite yesterday. Mills said about the sam men would be used against Colorado as appeared against the Haskell Indians last Saturday. "There may be some change in the backfield," said Mills, "and Nemrek and Emery will change positions on the line." With the exception of Holman. every man on the Colorado team is said to bfi in fine fettle for the com bat. Mills' men as a body have never been as sound as they are this morning.

HARVARD PLAYS TIGERS TODAY AT PRINCETON Eastern Foot Ball Approaches Climax of Season With, This Game Probably, Most Attractive. New York, Nov. 7. Eastern foot ball approaches the climax of the season tomorrow with the playing of one of the classiest contests of the year and several games which will weigh heavily in the final align ment of the elevens. From many angles the Harvard-Princeton battle at Princeton will attract the interest of foot ball followers in all parts of the country. As an annual strug gle surrounded with traditions ap proaching the Yale-Princeton and the Harvard-Yale games, thousands of alumni will watch the scoring with keenest interest. Harvard enters the game as log ical favorite, but, nevertheless, sur rounded with an air of foot ball mystery. The Crimson eleven is composed of fast, powerful players and the team has not yet been scored upon. The Harvard schedule has not been as trying as that of Princeton. On occasions, however, the Crim son has shown great offensive strength, with a well equipped at tack, both in the running and over head advance of the ball. Interest Centers on Tigers. In many respects the Interest cen ters in the work of Princeton. Al though defeated by both Colgate and West Virginia, the Orange and Black is certain to develop a tar stronger same against Harvard and, with the possible exception of the Yale contest a week away, may be expected to throw all its power and resources against the Crimson. Under these i conditions, Harvard will have to uncover better foot ball than the team has yet shown in order to win decisively. ,Notre Dame comes out of the west for its annual scrimmage with the Army eleven. Judging from the record of the visitors the cadets will be forced to play their hardest foot ball if they are to hold the fast In diana eleven in check. Pittsburgh is another team to entertain dangerous opponents in the Washington and Jefferson combination. A peculiar triapgle is involved in this contest, for Syracuse defeated Pittsburgh by 24 to 3, only to go down before Washington and Jefferson by 13 to 0. a week later as the result of two 50-yard runs in the closing minutes of the game. Pennsylvania and Dartmouth can be expected to furnish a hard strug gle in their game at the Pol6 grounds in this city, for they are very evenly matched. Dartmouth has not lost a game this season al though playing with Colgate last Saturday. Pennsylvania lost to Penn State, this being the only defeat on the Queers' record. Yale looks for her usual hard game with Brown, but counts upon winning by a small margin, ' Two other interesting and uncer tain contests loom in the meeting of Rutgers and Boston college at Boston and the Lehigh-Pennsyl-vania State game at State college, Pennsylvania. The caliber of Bos ton college was established in its victory over Yale. Lehigh had a clean slate until Pittsburgh de feated it, 14 to 0. a week ago, and Penn State has had only one set back, the loss of the Dartmouth game by a score of 16 to 13. Other leading teams of the east appear to have a fair margin of safety in the games of tomorrow. The principal contests follow: Harvard at Princeton;' Notre Dame at West Point; Brown at Yale; Pennsylvania and Dartmouth at New York; Carnegie Tech at Cornell; Washington and Jefferson at Pittsburgh; Rutgers at Boston college; Georgetown at Annapolis; Rochester at Colgate; Lehigh at Penn State; Bucknell at Syracuse; Wesleyan at Amherst.

V ; Foot Ball Results. Chicago, Nov. 7. Eight teams will swing into action in the renewal of hostilities for the western confer ence foot ball championship tomor row with interest centering in the games between Michigan And Chi cago at Chicago, and Illinois and Minnesota at Minneapolis. In the other two conference struggles, Ohio State, the only undefeated eleven in the race, will meet Purdue, at Columbus, while Northwestern and Iowa will clash at Evanston. The clash between Chicago and Michigan will mark the first real struggle between these historic gridiron foes since Michigan dropped out of the conference fol lowing the season of 1915. Indica tions were tonight that 25,000 per sons would witness the contest. Injuries threaten to weaken Chi cago as two of the most efficient linesmen Jackson and McGuire, probably will be out of the game.

Experts believe that if Illinois can defeat Minnesota, the down-state players will have an ex cellent chance of winning from Ohio in the windup of the season at Co lumbus, November 22. Nothing short of a miracle will enable Purdue to defeat Ohio to morrow. The Ohioans have been resting since the game with Michi gan two weeks ago and are re ported to be on edge. Iowa, is ex pected to win handily over North western, as the Hawkeyes are rep resented with one of the strongest teams in the history of the institu tion. The only game Iowa lost this season was to Illinois by a 2-point margin. Shenandoah Defeats Red Oak; Halfback Breaks Collar Bone Shenandoah, la., Nov. 7. (Spe cial Telegram) Shenandoah rolled up a score of 40 to 6 on Red Oak eleven Friday. Reed Oak's only score was made on intercepted for ward pass.

Vandiver Captain of , 1919-20 Basket Ball Team for Creighton Howard Vandiver, junior in the medical department of Creighton university, was elected captain of the Blue and Whits basket ball team for 1919-1920 at a meeting of basket ball players in Creighton gymnasium Thursday -night. Vandiver as guard on the Creighton quintet for the past three years was one of the chief factors of the team's successes. He is a steady player an a hard fiarhter. Dunne th ha hall a.. son just gone by he was third base man for the Murphy-Did-Its, ama teur base ball champions of tht city. i Vandiver learned the rudiments of basket ball at Lincoln High school under the direction of Har old Mulligan, now coach at Central High school.

The sched ule for the year is only partially complete, as Creighton wants to wait until the conference teams have fixed their dates. ger, right tackle, known throughout the Rocky mountain region as the fastest lineman in the conference. Schwf iger has played here before. When Camp Dodge's all-star foot ball team defeated Camp Funston's all-stars, 3 to 0, on Creighton field, December 1, two years ago, Schwei ger played a brillian game at tackle for Camp Funston. Schweiger played regularly with the 89th di vision team here and when it crossed the sea. He was one of the main factors in gaining for the 89th the championship of rthe A. E. F. Followers of gridiron sport here are looking forward to a great exhi bition of foot ball from Schweiger when he locks horns today with "Hump" Emery, Creighton's left tackle. "Emery will give him all he can handle," is the comment of Capt. Gene Leahy of the Blue and White. j Atlantic Coast Naval Men's Foot Ball Title at Stake Washington, Nov., 7.
