BASKETBALL IS
NOW UNDER BAN
Augustana Synod in Illinois Is
Stung by Athletic Re-
form" Bee.

Rock Island, ILL.,, Oct 25.-Students Of Aug
ustana college went strike yesterday as a
protest against the action of the directors iii
turning down petition of the students for
permission to continue intercollegiate basketball
When the declaration Of the board became
known the student body gathered and marched
thru the rain to the homes of various pro-
fessors, where the directors were being enter
tanned, and booted them. Late at night meet
ing was being held in the gymnasium, which,
was decorated with the placard ''For sale or
rent. Apply to directors
A memorial to ministers Of Augustana synod
was adopted urging them at their next meet
ing to assist in repeating the resolution adopted
at meeting Of tb esynod in 1905 placing foot
ball and other intercollegiate athletics under
ban.
The students returned to the gymnasium yes
terday morning and decided not to attend reel
tations. President Andreen was present and
urged the students to drop the matter, as neither
he the directors had any discretion in the
matter, altho they favor properly controlled
athletics. The students, however, appointed a
committee to confer with the executive COM
mittee Of the board In regard to insuring the
reconsideration of the action Of the full board
The executive committee however, declined to
act In view of the mandatory nature of the
| synodical resolution. .T
The student body during the day carried out
the plan adopted at the morning meeting Of
boycotting classrooms, only members of the the
! illogical seminary attending recitations. Four
| hundred students in other departments remained
| away from their classrooms.
President Gustaf Andreen last night stated
! that he thought the students would all be back
| in school within a day two, when reflection
showed them that the directors powerless
to act according to the students wishes in the
matter of athletics. The only aftermath may
be the disciplining of some Of the leaders OF

BIG SHAKEUP FOR
THE CORNHUSKERS
Foster Now Attempting to Make
Quarterback of Six
Year Johnson. j

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 25.-All attention in Ne
braska football this week is riveted upon efforts
to convert 'BilP' johnson, the veteran colored
end into quarterback. Foster is not dis
cornhuskers, but asserts that a competent quar-
terback would have given his proteges much
better chance.
The coach realizes the danger Of switching
quarterbacks in midseason, but it has been
demonstrated that neither Cooke Benedict
will do Johnson's. long experiment at the
game is expected to come to his aid In master
Ing the tricks or the new position.
The addition Of Weller, powerful halfback,
has unquestionably strengthened the cornhusk-
ers and the encouraging announcement has been
made that Bob Taylor, the husky negro
guard, has wiped out his condition and is now
eligible for football. Taylor, In fact, is now
practicing daily with the varsity squad in his
adds UNNECESSARILY to that department of tina
line. Taylor's temperance has permitted the
transfer of Chaloupka to the backfeld, where he
is being worked out as fullback. Captain Ma
sons rheumatism is tickle proposition and
Foster is uncertain as to the captains ability
to continue in the game. Chaloupka is the
athlete Of the Nebraska squad. In spring ath-
letics he shines as a shotputtter, while his
weight, 100 pounds, at once makes him de-
sirable man as Aason's successor. Chaloupka
has been Fosters pick as fullback all fall.
He has been tearing thru the scrub line like q
cyclone this week and the coach is fairly conf
dent that Chaloupka will force the critics at
Minnesota and Chicago to open their eyes.
The switching Of Johnson from end to quar-
ter has led to the transfer OF Schmidt from
right half to left end. Craig made good in the
Ames game at halfback and Foster Is planning
to keep him there. Little previously the left
than in the backfeld. These changes have added
nearly a hundred pounds in beef to the varsity
lineup, while they have added wonderfully to
its fighting strength.
