Nebraska May Get Game With Min

Nebraska May Get Game With Min
nesota Next Fall.
1t begins to look as if a football
game between Nebraska and Mime
sofa for the coming season will soon
be sceduled, if the reports sent out
by the manager of the Chicago uni
versity team are true. That gentle
already heavy schedule of the Ma
rooms, it will be impossible to take
on a game with Minnesota This is
what the Nebraskans have been pray
ing for during the past two or three
weeks or ever since a letter from the
management at Minneapolis an
nounced that a game with Nebraska
would be considered if the Chicago
game was thrown over. From the
correspondence that has passed be-
sured as Chicago and Minneapolis do
not play. r. c. Clapp of the athletic
board said yesterday that nothing had
been heard from Minnesota during
the last few days, but that the matter
has gone far enough so that If the
game with Chicago is called off the
Cornhuskers can reasonably expect
to be taken in it's place. A letter is
expected in a few days and it is not
likely that there will be any trouble
arranging dates, as Nebraska will be
willing to give almost anything in
order to get a game.
If this game is scheduled it will
mean three big games at least during
the coming season for the Cornhusk-
ers, all with big nine" teams. Games
have already been arranged with Iowa
and Illinois, and if Minnesota can be
added to the list it will make an ideal
schedule-one that will induce numer-
Gus good candidates to come out and
try for the team. What the game will
mean to Nebraska. no one can esti-
mate. 1t was through Minnesota that
the team from the Lincoln university
first made its reputation throughout
the west, and it was on account of the
defeat administered to the Gophers
in 1902 that Nebraska has been able
to schedule games with the other
teams in the big nine"
AS the game will be played in Min
neapolis, it will mean at least $4,000
to Nebraska, and in the present state
of the finances of the athletic associa-
ton, it will mean small sized gold
mine. The game will probably be
played some time along about the first
of November, and Nebraska will try
to have the date set as late as posi-
BILE. While an early date is in favor
of Nebraskas smaller men, it makes
poorly balanced season to have the
players reach the height of their train
ing in the middle of October. Coach
Booth had an experience like that in
1902, and it is probable that Minneso-
ia will also want little more time
than before in which to pound her
big men into shape, and she will not
feel like taking on the game until she
is ready to play as she would against
big nine team.
