in this period, and to even wear themselves
out In keeping their opponents from scor-
Ing. II they do this King Cole will feel
that they can hold out and play the In
dams to a standstill during the rest Of the
contest. He knows that a dlspirited Indian
is the easiest kind OF a victim and he
means to take all the fight out Of the
redmen at the opening of the game.
Nebraska has worked for nearly two
weeks in preparing for this clash with the
Indians. Coach Cole saw the game be-
tween Minnesota and the redmen, where
the latter were forced to uncover all their
tricks, and he is building up plays both
on the offense and defense calculated 10
defeat the opponents of the C~ornhuskers.
Carlisle cannot win by pounding the Ne
braska line. This the Nebraska coach be-
lieves and he thinks they will have to rely
almost wholly on open style plays. such as
the forward pass, end runs and onside
kicks. 1t is to combat these latter THAT
King Cole is working overtime with his
men.
Special defensive formation for the for
ward pass and onside kick have been given
the C~ornhuskers this week and they are
drilling assiduously in the use OF them.
Captain Harvey. Halfback Beltzer and
Left End Johnson figure most conspicu-
ously I'm these plays. Harvey and Beltzer
have proven themselves to be great play
ers on the defense in the other big con-
tests of the year and they are now being
drilled to stop the elusive plays Of the In
dams.
Coach Warner OF the Indians has had
the Cornhuskers carefully watched In the
last two games and knows just about
what to Expect from the great team that
King Cole has turned out at the state
institution. He is quoted as having said
that Nebraska has one OF the greatest
defensive foot bali machines he has heard
Of this fall. This Is taken in the Corn
husker camp to mean that the Indian
coach will have his players pointed for an
open and spectacular game.
The Carlisles have a fast and versatile
back field. which will be depended upon
by Coach Warner to do the best work of
any part OF the team against the Nebraska
eleven. Hauser and Balenti will probably
figure in the game as stars. The former
is one Of the hardest line ~plungers playing
foot ball today, and is a most dangerous
man when the Indians get down on an op-
ponent's twenty or twenty-five-yard line.
He smashes the line and on him Coach
Warner relies for many big gains.
Balenti Is a sensational kicker and in
one of the earlier contests of the fall won
out for the Indians by scoring four drop
kicks. He has been kept out OF some of
the recent games on account OF injuries,
but win be in shape for the go with the
pupils OF king Cole next week.
Nebraska rooters and coaches are look
ing for Pip Cooke TO do some sensa-
a -A-N -.--T- T. - -.
the kind that he is suited for, an open
play contest. He is in the best shape of
the season. and with the line giving him
the right kind OF support he will undoubt-
eddy show up to great advantage.
Special attention is being paid to the
tackling Of the Cornhuskers In getting
them ready for this game. They were very
weak in the Kansas game in this depart
ment and were still not as skilled in 1t is
they should have been when Wabash was
here. The Indians are speedy, elusive and
excellent dodgers, and unless the Me-
braska players improve greatly in tackling
the redmen are liable to make some dan
gerous runs.
Last Game for some.
At least three and perhaps seven Corn
huskers will play their last game of inter-
collegiate foot bali when the Nebraska and
Carlisle elevens clash next Wednesday.
CAPTAIN Harvey. Chaloupka and Cooke will
conclude their three allotted years of the
college sport and will not be eligible to
play on a university team again. Frum,
Kroger and Ewing are all seniors. and II
they take their degrees at the commence
ment next spring. they win become inelig-
ible to play at Nebraska or any other uni
versity. Beltser also will probably finish
his college foot ball career in this game.
He is only a sophomore in the university
and is still eligible for another year Of the
gridiron game. but he has signed up to
and in case he holds TO his contract he will
be disqualified for further participation in
intercollegiate athletics.
Captain Harvey, C~haloupka and Cooke
all played their first intercollegiate foot
ball in the fall OF 1906 when Foster was
coach Of Nebraska. Captain Harvey had
been on the Cornhusker squad for two
years previous to that time and had played
good foot ball with the second team, but
had failed TO show what BUNNY" Booth
thought was good varsity form. In the
fall OF 1906, however. he appeared for prac-
tlce with the second team and Coach Fos-
ter saw that the present C%ornhusker cap
tain had the right material in him and
during the fall played him at tackle ana
halfback. Last season Harvey played a
sensational game at end n was elected
captain for 1905. His play his year has
