That the 'varsity team expected too easy a victory with Wesleyan last Sat urday was clearly demonstrated in tile game played. The whole eleven went upon the ground feeling confi dent, and as a result the game was slow and ragged during the first half. Of course VWesleyan'.s style of play1 contributed in a large measure to this. The halvef were but fifteen minutes in length and the visiting team know ing there was no chance of their scor ing played for time. And although no direct charges can be made, it ap- t'ared at the tiute as if the officials abetted this. Several times in the game the play was not permitted to go on, although time had not been called by eithercaptain. Only during the last five or six minutes did the -'varsity play their accustomed game: and considering all tiie time wasted there was not really more than this amount in the whole of the second, during which the play was going on. For, the home team then to score eleven points in this time shows the possibilities of the team. The prac tice this week has leen quickened, and the individual work lias been char acterized by more dash than formerly. To play, a quick, snappy game the players must play a fierce game. By this is not meant mean or question, able playing, but the hardest kind of playing the members can put forth. Each play should be made as if it were the last one of the half; and when a man interferes he should block hard, and long, and low. Tiiere is one particular which is yet to lie seen of the 'varsity team, and that is their work on the kick-off. Last year the eleven was weak in get ting down the field on the kick-off and downing the ball immediately. Too often the opposing team lias blocked up and carried the ball back for fifteen or twenty yards. On thc other hand weakness has been shown in receiving the ball on the kick-off and returning it. The interference did not form briskly enough, and the men showed a tendency to let the player catching the ball go by himself. Whether this point lias been improved upon this year or not is yet to lie seen. So far in the Tarkio and Wesleyan game, it did better, but this was no true test. In the Ames game, it was very weak in this regard: but there is the extenuating circumstance of its being an early game. The game with Missouri will demonstrate fully whether Nebraska get off clean and swift in this opening play of t he game. The return of Melford who will re sume his place atcenter will strength en the team vastly. So far no one has been found able to fill the posi that it has ever been at this period of the season, but like many other things, this can only le told by the first league game. Two 'years ago when Kansas de feated Nebraska upon the home grounds, it wrs thought that they were in excellent condition, but just at the last end the team became worn out and Kansas pushed the ball along at will making the winning touch down. Who will play behind the line in the Missouri game is not yet known. Some of the candidates who showed up well at the beginning have taken a sort of mid-season "slump" and need tuning up. Those who were behind in the race at first are picking up and indications, lead one to believve that their chances are .is good if not better at present than the others. They are playing hard, fierce ball and their work upon the defense Is cleaner and safer. However, of all those trying for positions, whoever gets the places, one may be sure of having faster backs all around this year than last. Dur ing the former season there were not enough men trying for the positions behind the line to cause them to work. This year no one lias a sure place, and the team is strengthened and quite evenly balanced. At present six of the old line men are at work, and al though some of the players have been shifted into other positions, it lias been done to strengthen the left side, which was the weak one last year. Benedict, on the left end, has been replaced by Stringer, and he is now trying behind the line where there is a possibility of his playing in the com ing games. The training at end in going down the field on points has done him much good for a place be hind the line. The line is heavier this year than last, considered as a whole, the ends esjiecialiy. It was found necessary to put heavy men in these latter positions in order to meet the Pennsylvania style of interference' which is played by both Iowa and Kansas. This consists of the guards being drawn back witli the halves and plunged into the line or thrown around the ends in the interference. This is an effective style of play, as is shown in the game in which Iowa licat Northwestern: but it is some what of an open game, permitting line men who arc quick to plunge through and intercept it before it starts Then, too, with quick, heavy ends and tackles it can be smashed almost as rapidly. Guards as a rule arc large heavy men, and necessarily slow: so when itcomes to running them around the ends to head the interference, the play will get off slow. It gives the tackles a chance to lunge through lie forc the block can be formed, and the ends a chance to run in and down the man with the ball, while he is wait- tween the two and will be a good one. Wesleyan, who fe ired she was not in condition last Saturday, refused to consider that game as the champion ship game. As a result, the twentieth of next month has leen settled upon as the time. A feature which has lieen a iart of Nebraska's play before Is drop-kicking. Tills counts five points and is very handy when there is but halta min ute to make twenty or thirty yards. This has been developed this year and now one may not think that it is only to be seen upon eastern grounds. It is the prettiest play of the whole game and usually takes the lookers-on by surprise. As easy as it may apiear, however, it is probably the most diffi cult, and together with goal-kicking, takes endless practice and unlimited care to bring the art to perfection. Only on a quiet day can there be any certainty about elther- MRS. INA DILLON TABER.

Missouri has ball. The team is especially well fitted out in the center for offensive work. During the past few days the team has been put through Iongerand more arduous work. Heretofore the games which have been played have been merely fifteen and twenty minute halves. But thirty-five minute halves is an entirely different sort of thing. Often times a team has played a strong winning game up to the last five min utes and then becoming exhausted? has gone to pieces and lost the game. An eleven in the qest condition should gradually increase their work all through the game, making swifter and fiercer play until the climax is reached just at the finish. It is said the 'Varsity team is in the best con dition physically and iii team work. no eastern coach this year, but is be ing trained by ex-Captain Young. What they will do under his tutor ship can only lie surmised, but as an individual player he was a strong, heady man. Of course, he does not have the advantage of the latest plays brought out by the eastern schoo's. but lie may have developed some good ground gainers of his own. Wesleyan will take a turn at Mis souri also this year. Monthly, the first of November following the Uni versity game, she plays the Tigers at Omaha. It will be her first big game outside of the Nebraska state, and no doubt will prove a valuable experience to her.
