to Birkner on Nebraska's thirty-yard line.
Beltzer on the first play tried by Me-
braska, went around left end for a run of
twenty-five yards, A forward pass from
Beltzer to Birkner gave ten yards; Bentley
lost one yard on a run. A forward pass
from Bentley to Harvey was tried. but the
Nebraska quarter was not out five yards
from center and the Cornhuskers were
penallzed fifteen yards. Better tried an
onside kick. Nebraska held and received

Temple took the place Of Kroger and was

splendid work. Cooke replaced Bentley, but
that was a case Of the real article being
called into the game when something des-

playing a fine game and had showed good
judgment in the pinches. but Cooke was
needed for the long run which was to win
the game and he delivered the goods
Crowd Was magnificent.
The crowd. 1t was magnificent. Never had
such a crowd Of enthusiasts gathered In
the west TO witness a foot ball battle.
Giant stands had been reared at Dietz
park, with solid banks OF humanity and
colors. The sight was indeed thrilling. on
the north was stationed the Ames rooters
and on the south Nebraska. The stands
seated 1000 people. Boxes in front held 500
more and the entire field was lined several
deep with lovers of the game. In front of
the college sections were the cadet bands
from each school and these led In the songs
and played the airs so dear TO the collegi-
ans heart.
1t was not all a Nebraska crowd which
Ames had to play before. Although a little
late in arriving the Ames contingent made
a splendid showing and in the crowd were
over 1000 wearing the colors of Ames. The
yellmasters In front Of the stands kept
the yells in unison and Nebraska would
sing a defiant song at Ames and the
Ames students would come right back with

cAPTAIN HARvEY, NEpRAsKA,s


Ames rooters was a little late in arriving
and Nebraska had scored the first touch
down before the Ames band, followed by
the students, came upon the field. The
band started its music before it was fairly
on the field and it was but a short time
before the Ames team, cheered by the band
and the yells of the late students, carried
the ball across the Nebraska goal line for
a touchdown. 81 Lambert missed the goal,
which left the score 6 to 8 in favor of Ne
braska, but the Ames team had shown
that it had real ability and that the battle
was not yet won by Nebraska.
Omaha has been working hard to have
the, Nebraska team play one OF its big
games in this city, and the game of yes
terday practically insures a big annual
game in Omaha. Both teams were loud in
their praise. of everything connected with
the game and especially of the treatment
they received at the hands of the omaha
public. Lincoln never had such a crowd
to a foot ball game, although the people
have been educated up to first class foot
ball. The management of both teams was
more than pleased with the grand outpour-
ing of foot ball enthusiasts, and both re-
! turned home with their pockets bullying
with the receipts OF the game, which will
materially help the exchequers of both
teams.
Foot ball in the stage of its highest de-
| velopment was witnessed, and nothing but
words Of praise were heard on all sides
I after the game. The doubt of the outcome
until the last few minutes of play kept the
Paudience keyed up to the highest pitch.
The wind and the sun on the west were
two prominent factors in the scoring
! and the team with that advantage had the
edge which, in time, brought the score. The
open style of play made a decided hit. on
| the spectators and long runs added interest
all the way through. The old style OF
line plunging entirely was a thing of the
past, and there was scarcely Two minute
Of play but what SOM fleet-footed player
was loose for a long run or trying to gel
loose, or when some new-styled play was
being tried. The requirements OF ten yards
to each three downs forces the captains tC
be ingenious and to work out some plays
on which there is a chance for a long ruT
and that is what the spectators were treated
to yesterday.

Dartnouth's victory over Princeton was
all the more gratifying in view OF the de-
feat of ten years ago, when the Tiger
gamboled all over the Green. Another
good result of Dartmouth's prowess will
be the stimulus given to raising of funds
for a new gymnasium, which funds are to
be in the nature of a popular subscription
from alumni all over the country. One Of
the features Of the trophy room will be
the carving of subscribers names on spe-
cially prepared bricks, thus making a last

in the opinion of local alumni, means a

These victories mean much not only to

BUSINESS that has been brough about by

The recent p~athflnding trip Of Donald
Mcintosh OF Cleveland and Fred l.. Estey
of Chicago, through Minnesota, with a
view TO locating a possible route Tor next
years Glidden tour, has stirred many
southern clubs to action, and there prom
Uses to be a merry war for the tour before

Chicago park officials are even more
particular about the cars that enter the
city playgrounds than those Of New YORK.
On a recent afternoon 100 policemen, put at
park and boulevard entrances, turned away
over 800 cars, either because they were
unwashed and dirty, because they dripped
oil, or because they emitted offensive ex-
haust.
Under the rules adopted by the Congress-
of Recognized Automobile clubs, which met
recently in Paris, the size of the engines
and weight OF cars which enter big racing
events next year will be considerably re-
duced. Four cylinder motors cannot have
bores exceeding 5M inches, while the mini
mum weight OF cars was lowered to 1854
pounds.

The Dietz club deserves praise for the way
the game was managed.
From a spectacular point of view, the
game could not have been improved upon.
The new rules forced plenty of kicking and
both teams showed their skill time and
again ip the use of the forward pass which
the new rules permit. There was plenty
OF kicking and the ball was sent whizzing
through the air many times. To a man
who was not familiar with the rules of
foot ball the game was most attractive
and the occasion was glorious TO those who
saw Ames lose in the last few minutes OF
play.
Wind Plays Important Part.
~ hard wind swept from the west,
lengthwise of the field. and 1t was a GU
rious fact that of the seven ouchdowas
which. were made all were scored over
the east goal line. 1t almost seemed
that with the open game the side having
the wind and sun to assist was sure to
/ score sooner or later. The advantage lay
= In Captain Harvey winning the toss and
then Nebraska's last touchdown being
made with too short a space of time for
Ames to again even matters. Nebraska
made the first score in is minutes of
play and from that time to the finish IT
was a battle of giants with everything
practically even except the advantage of
the wind. There Is no d~iscounting the
Ames team for Ames has a real foot bail
