10 THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 18. 1920. HUSKERS WANT READMSSION IN CONFERENCE Rutgers Game Not to Be Post poned, Regardless of Con ference Officials' Attitude. Lincoln. Feb. 17, (Special Tele gram.) The board of regents of the state university at a meeting today voted to take action toward getting back in the Missouri Valley confer ence. Application for admission will be made immediately and the valley board of control wihl probably take action on the matter late in the spring. One obstacle in the way oi Ne braska's readinission to the confer ence is the same scheduled to be played witji Rutgers' college on the polo grounds in New York City, November 2. The same reason for which Nebraska was forced to with draw from the conference last year is again met here as the conference rules forbid teams playing games on any but the college gridirons. Chancellor Avery announced em phatically that the Rutgers game would not be canceled. He said that in case conference officials re fused to readmit Nebraska on this score, it is probable that a game will be scheduled for in-Omaha next fall. . ' Chancellor "Avery and- Regent Brown in giving their report to the regents today stated that the feeling in schools in the conference toward Nebraska vyas extremely friendly. The chancellor said that he was of the opinion fhat officials would be more inclined to leniency towards Nebraska now than they had ever been before. In case the Husker school is' taken back into the conference soon, it is probable that some track and base ball meets will be staged with valley schools.

KANSAS CITY M AND WIFE , NOW CONVINCED "I Have Never Seen Anything Like Tanlac," Declares 0. J. Wheeler Works , Every Day Now. The reader will doubtless remem ber, in a recent issue of this paper, the statement of Mrs. O. J. Wheeler, promineni woman, 1431 Harrison street,' Kansas City, in which she told,- so interestingly, of the won derful benefits she has derived from the use of Tanlac following a pe riod of ill health covering several years. The results of Tanlac in Mrs. Wheeler's case were so pro nounced and convincing that her husband, 0. J. Wheeler, who states he has been suffering for a year or more from stomach trouble and a run-down condition," is now taking the medicine and following is his own story regarding the Results: "My wife and I have both put Tanlac to test and have found it to be by far the best medicine we ever ran across. As for my own case, I have been suffering from stomach trouble and newma indi gestion ever since I returned from France a year1 ago. In fact, while 'over there' I was troubled with fre- quent spells of indigestion. My ap petite was very poor and what I did eat would sour and cause such a bloated, stuffed-up feeling that I could scarcely breathe, with pains in my stomach at times that I could hardly stand. I was habitually con stipated, had fearful headaches and dizzy spells, and often felt so bad ' that I couldn't work. Finally I got so weak that it was difficult for me to get around at all. "My wife had been taking Tanlac with such fine results that I con cluded to try it myself, and now I am iust like a different man. I have never seen nor heard of any thing like it. Why, I had not fin ished the first bottle before I had a good appetite and could feel my strength coming back. I have taken three bottles now and never feel a sign of indigestion, no matter what I eat. I am now able to work hard every day and my appetite is so big " that mealtime comes too slow for me. I used to be continually losing time from my work but I have not missed a day since I finished my first bottle of Tanjac. My wife and I are recommending Tanlac to all our friends and I will gladly tell anyone, either personally or-by let ter, what I have found out by ex perience about Tanlac." Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End "Pharmacy. Also For rest and Meany Drug Company in South Omaha and the leading drug gist jn each city arid, town through out the state of Nebraska. Adv.

Although ths games already played this season, on the whole, j have been a success, Husker j coaches are looking for uu' easy j sledding against the Indianaus. The old-lime rivalry between the ! two teams promises to make the game fast. Athletic authorities have j made special provision for handling the crowds by hiring the City audi torium for the Friday evening fray. The strength of the Xotre Dame team i.-, not at all questionable ac cording to reports in the Husker j camp. Coach Dorais' men have shown up well all season and only ; last week beat the Michigan Aggies.
