Nebraska de feated Rutgers Tuesday on the Polo ground before l.'i.OOt) fansv'H to 0. The Cornhuskers showed their su periority from the first kickoff until the final whistle was blown. In the third quarter, the western eleven let down its efforts and the team from across the river had a decided ad vantage iit offensive play. It was only the stubborn defense of the visitors which prevented a Rutgers score. Score in Second Quarter. Although Nebraska threatened to score in the opening period it was not until the second quarter that the first score was made. The west enters gained possession of the hall in mid-held and made en-interesting march to Kuteer's coal. With Hub- i a. Hart cv and Wright alternately carrying the ball, the oval was placed on the local's four-yard line. Hart-' ley then shot straight through his left tackle for the first score. Cap tain Day kicked the goal. Shortly after this marker, Nebraska again came into possesion of the hall ou its 40-yard line. The Cornhusker hacks were hurled against, the, opposing line and off the tackles until the ball was 20 yards from the scoring line. At this point v ITubka shot a forward pass (o Swanson and the latter scampered .over the line. Aside from Rutgers' great brace in the third period, there was no more scoring until the last quarter. Nebraska made a straight march of 30 yards for a 'touchdown. Moore scored the points on a drive through center. Near the close of the period, Dale, who replaced Hubka at full back for Nebraska, hurled a for ward pass into space. The ball was touched by a Rutgers player and fell into the arms of Swanson one yard from the goal line. The Corn hitskcr stepped across the scoring chalk mark for the last points of the game.

Ban Johnson, president of the American League, wilt probably establish a precedent this year by addressing the minor league managers, when they con vene in annual meeting at Kansas City next week. Johnson has al ways made it a point to remain away from the minors, mainly, it is explained, because he did not care to have them influenced by any tllng he might have to say. How ever, conditions have changed and practically all the so-called "Bush" leagues are lined up strongly for him on his stand against the proposed re organization of base ball under the Lasker plan. The minor'.' are wrought up over Jack Dempsey to Box Willard Soon Heavyweight Champion and Kansas "Giant" tcMyleet in Return Bout March 17. Montreal, Nov. 4.

Wyoming university invaded Ne braska today and trounced the Wcs leyan Coyotes on the University Dace field hero this afternoon, with a score of 14 to 7. The score is a fair idication of the relative strength of the two teams, although the Methodists were rather lucky to obtain their lone touchdown. So the World May Know - Londbn. Nov. 3. Dr. Furse, Bishop of St. Albans, believes in plain speaking, such as: "A bishop can't be got rid of unless he gets drunk or becomes bankrupt.

Honolulu Players Kick Pigskin About During Practice in Bare Feet I CI lao Tribune-Omaha Bee leased H ire. 0 Chicago, Nov. 4. When a large xi i r .i i .: .1.. r. numoer 01 tne merairers ui mc nam ehameha school foot ball squad at Honolulu turned out at their first practice in bare feet and kicked the pigskin about as freely as though they were clad in steel shod brogans, C. G. Langenstein, the school's new coach from Northwestern nuiversity was amazed. In letters to his former classmates at the university, he says the players wear a thin shirt and overalls in all practice games. In regular games they don the regula tion foot ball armor, but their work is not as snappy. Coach Langen stein says he has received some les sons in hardihood and that the American athletes, who go into a game weighed down with steel hel mets, heavy leather saddles and other impediments, might get some profit able pointers from the sinewy and lithe boys in the Hawaiiu islands. Bob Zuppke (above), Illinois coach. Glen Warner (below), Pittsburgh coach. Year at Kansas City the proposed plan to dominate the national game by a tribunal of the three inexperienced men. At this time it is questionable if a single minor league will throw its support t) the combination. 1 The only pro 4",ion for the small circuits that prominent linor' league officials could find in the new plan, was an autocratic power that promised di rect conicquences in emergencits. No one seems to know, aside from the men who are behind the reor ganization idea, just how the minors are to betaken care of. The minor league chiefs scrutinized the plan carefully and admit they cannot see where any provision is made for them. The fans will not hazard a guess and the base ball experts shake their heads and laugh. Wrestlers Sign for 'Rough House Match Chicago, Nov. 4. John Pesek and Williarns Memetral signed articles .Monday to wrestle to a finish before the club offering the best inducements. A sensa tional and unique clause in the articles calls for the match to be a mixed style, nothing barred nd neither man to claim a de cision on a foul. The referee will award decision to the best man only after the other is pinned, quits or is totally ex hausted.

State College, Pa., Nov. 3. (Spe cial.) Starting down the home stretch of the foot ball season, with the University of Nebraska, Lehigh and the University of Pittsburgh to j b? played within the next four weeks, the Penn State squad is tuned to its highest pitch for this week's game. The team started preparing for the game with the Nebraska Corn huskers Monday night. Penn State emerged from the Pennsylvania con test in fairly good condition and with signal practice on the program for this week, the aggregation should be in good trim for the game Satur day afternoon. Great interest is being taken in the coming game with the Nebras kans. Penn State coaches scouted the Nebraska-Rutgers contest at New York City election day and when the local pigskin tutors re turned, gave out the information that Penn State will buck up against a well-drilled foot ball team when it meets the University of Nebraska s(uad. The Cornhuskers come to State college as the leading attraction for Pennsylvania day and a crowd .rivaling that which -witnessed the Dartmouth battle is expected to again tax the new stands to their fullest capacity. Penn State eleven should be in bet ter shape for the Nebraska game tiian it was for Saturday's struggle, for Killinger, the star quarterback, should be fully recovered from his injury by the end of this week. His absence is severely felt, for, in addi tion to being a fine all-around player, he inspires confidence in the rest of the team and is invaluable for that reason. Redingcr has been doing good work, while Killie was on the side lines, but he lacks the necessary experience, while "Buck" Williams has been in poor condition this year and has been unable to show the i,:.. j -r - ... . . muu i game mat ne really can play. T "TWO AND THREE" Tutting the Next One Over. By "BUGS" BAER. m 1 HE foot ball season is half cured, lale lost a eame and lias nut its schedule maker on half ra. tions. Gil Dobie lias empty and is muscle bound in the lachrymatory ducks. Gil has a good team down at Cornell and is so hap py that he cries himself to sleep every night. Harvard looks like the champion of Cambridge ,and an effort is being made to hook them up in a world series with Vassar, now that the ladies have the privilege of selling a vote. A world series in foot ball would be one for the loose-leaf ledger. Wal ter Camp and the other amateur critics are dead agin it. If Prince ton wins the eastern end of the du plex laurels and Oregon cops the western end of the intercollegiate' slugging bee, that would mean sev en days on Mrs. Pullman's insom nia arks. EVEN VOTE SEDUCERS GET THE BONE ITCH. No college team can travel seven days on a train without one of the star players developing into a pad roller and grabbing all the money. Experience proves that even "a presidential candidate shouldn't be allowed to liandlee the bones for more than two rolls at a time. A world series in foot ball would mean that Columbus would have to discover America all over again and do it right this time. The amateur ticket speculators have had the field to themselves for 50 years and they are in no shape to compete with the wee boys who can make change with one hand and steal the bones out of a shad without disturbing a scale on the fish. GRAVY WOULD BE GOOD, BUT CROOKS BETTER. There would be a lot of gravy made in a foot ball world series, but there wouldn't be any income tax paid on it. The government refuses to issue any pickpocket certificates for the big tournament, as the boys haven't come across for the last series. The Master Mind is workng on the v.-res and hopes to put it over. The Master Mind is the strongest man in the country. He is suffering from a charley horse in his bribing muscles, but he is still full of pep. Strong? That boy could play tiddlywinks with manhole covers. Honest Abe is up in Canada, but he would be willing to sacrifice his grand jury indictment in the inter ests of a foot ball world series. The Master Mind is willing to donate his efforts to keep foot ball clean and foot ball pockets cleaner. There will be no smirch on a foot ball world series. The boys will steal the smirch. i Drummers Threatened By Huge Hotel Rates Berlin, Nov. 3. Prices of rooms and meals in German hotels have been increased to such an extent that commercial travelers see danger of suspension of their business because their employers can no longer pay the exorbitant bills. Some of the big concerns threaten to call their drummers off the road. The Asso ciation of Commercial Travelers has held a meeting and demanded that the government investigate hotel prices for profiteering. Worry Over Horse Cause Of Carman Ending His Life London, Nov. 3. The suicide of a carman, from grief at the sickness of a horse, has occurred at Oldbill, Staffs.

Laying the rarity tor orders given French automobile constructors for cars at the door of American manufacturers, Baron Pe tietpresident of the union of French automobile constructors, asks that, the importation of foreign cars "and particularly American cars" be for bidden. Baron Petiet says that such little work is at present being done in French factories that it is possible that during the winter some impor tant constructors will have to close their works. Some 200,000 French men are employed in the automobile industry in- France. Since the war there has been a great rush on American cars, eithsr new or old army ones. French peo ple consider them much more hand some, more silent, better built and more easily handled tWari Frencn cars. The army cars also had the advantage of being much cheaper than any second-hand French car r.nd of being in better condition. wwm jine Sporting Vforid? Answer to penter8ay'n Question. 1.

It will also(be the first time in the school's athletic career that the Cyclones have played before an Omaha crowd.

Chicago, Nov. 4. Fred Mitchell, deposed manager of the Cubs, left Chicago Monday, but this does not mean he is never coming back.

Baker of the Phillies would like to sign him to supplant "Gavvy" Cra v?.th. Inasmuch as Mitchell hiked tlraight for Eoston. it would not surprise any one here to learn he had accepted the offer in that city. Johnny Evcrs has returned from Havana, accepting the management of the Cubs, ,ind expressing himself as dejighted at the chance. He will find atask awaiting him. The team must be rebuilt if it is to con tinue in the firrt division. Mitchell says Evcrs will have to get new man for first, second and third bases and that Hollocher is the only man in the infield.

New York, organizer of the socialist party, in a statement is sued at party headquarters here de clared that the "usual tactics of intimidation and coercion followed bf henchmen of the old party in evi dence in previous elections, were also evident in the election today." A "new method" in strong so cialist districts to j"cut down the workers' vote" was the inadequate facilities for handling the big num ber of balloters, Germer said, result ing in socialists being compelled to wait trom one to two hours before being able to cast their vote."

Farm Body Scored For Joining Labor In Appeal to President Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. Washington, Nov. 3. The action of the radical agricultural organiza tion, the Farmers National council, in joining with organized labor in an appeal yesterday to President Wilson on the farm credit situation, was criticised today tV Charles A. Lyman, secretary of the national board of farm organization. While fully appreciating the fact that the president of the United States could do much to imnrove the situation, we nevertheless felt it un wise to accept the invitation to join with the Farmers National council in appearing at the White House yes terday," said Mr. Lyman. "Our organ ization is economic, and in no sense political, and it was thought by some that the appearance of repre sentatives of organized agriculture at the White House the day pre ceding election night might be given some unfortunate political sig nificance." , Two Boys Use Gasoline to Stop Fire; House Saved Blaine.

My spirits are overflowing with joy and happiness and good nature. Everything in me is singing or jazzing or throbbing or something. The latter I guess. So I just hum and hum, and hum some more. Harmony is the ruling power in me. That's why I make a noise like a ukulele. I can't stop humming; the desire to burst forth into song is so great. What if I do pick your car for a target for my melody? If you don't like it move out of the way. You don't have to stand or sit near me. You don't own the earth. It won't do you any good to k me to stop humming or to lose your temper and tell me just what you think of people who never know enough to keep quiet. Wliat do you want me to be? An old grouch like j you? Well, you are entitled to an-! other guess. I'm going to keep right on humming like the happy little j birds. And if it annoys you. why I that's your loss.
