on which the members will be invited to
run out for a skate and on those evenings
the street railway company will provide
cars for the accommodation Of the skaters.
Hot lunches will be served and everything
possible done to make II pleasant for all.
A gasoline engine win be used to flood the
ice with water TO make a good and smooth
surface on the carnival nights. When the
ice becomes good and thick at the beach
numerous loads Of sand will be hauled on
the ice and spread over so when the ice
melts in the spring it will settle and make
a good bathing beach. The directors figure
this the most practical way Of making
sand beach near the club house.
The past week has been an encouraging
one to followers OF the Creighton eleven.
1t has been a week of hard work and a
notable advance has been made. The I'M
provement has been most notable among
the men who are new at the game and
who, in the first games, showed lack
of knowledge of the rules and Of the inner
points in the game. Cavanaugh has In
sisted on a thorough study of the revised
rules and the effect of this is fast be-
coming apparent. The squad has almost
doubled In size and the men have worked
hard and consistently. Cavanaugh's I'M
firing efforts to get out all the available
material are being rewarded. Lundgren
has settled down to the hard work and
IL showing fine form. He plays good
defensive game and il counted on TO help
in carrying the ball. In Boot and De-
laney the coach has pair of line men
who are pushing the present incumbents
hard for their positions. Sucha's work as
AN,Na ~.
thaler at left tackle shows a marked i'm
provement. The kicking 30 far has been
very weak, but the return of Dick Coad
has given the team a decided boost in this
respect. He is punting in good shape and
is much heavier than he was last year
His presence at right end will add strength
to the defense. Fitzgerald, from the dental
reported for duty last week. He is a back
field man of considerable experience. AS
this department has been considerably
weakened by the injuries of Magirl, Lon-
phiner and Stevens, his appearance was
doubly welcome to the coach. Rooney,
Aylesworth, Brown and Mccormick con-
tinue their good work. They are all play
ing the best foot ball Of their careers.
Brome's way of running the team is above
criticism and he is remarkably cool in a
game. Aylesworth is a sure, hard tackler
and also one of the best ground galnei s
on the eleven. Rooney has entirely re-
covered from the injuries he received in
the Cornell game and Is one of the most
faithful of Cavanaugh's pupils at practice.
From now on Cavanaugh's work will be
conducted with the single idea In view of
having the men in perfect condition for
the Nebraska game on November 10. He
has fine squad to work with, and the
students and alumni are supporting the
| team to a man. Barring accidents the
/ men should be in condition by the time this
game rolls around to wipe out the dis
astrous defeat Of last year. No Creighton
team ever had such undivided support
| from the student body and faculty as this
team is receiving and the effect OF this
backing is noticeable on the field while
the men are at practice. When the team
| feels II has the entire Institution back of
It there is all the difference IN the world
in the way the players will get into the
sdrimmages.
Details for the first international horse
