Plans Develop.

George o. Francisco is in receipt OF a
letter from NJ. V. Qualey OF st. Louis, who
says the entries in the middle west tourna-
ment, which will be held at st. Louis in
January, are as follows:
Two hundred five-men teams.
Five hundred and sixty two-men teams.
One thousand individuals.
This means that the prize money Will
amount TO S15, COO, less 10 per cent for
tournament expenses, OF a net amount OF
$4,000. AS many of these entries are made
up Of bowlers of st. Louis to boost the
tournament, the chances for Omaha teams
to get a good slice of the purses are much
better than at the American Bowling con-
gress in Detroit.
There will be a few strong teams from
st. Louis, Kansas City, st. Joseph, Des
Moines and Sioux City. but Omaha, II
properly represented, will have an excellent
chance to get the money. Teams should be
entered in the city tournament and qualify
for the bigger event. There will be a meet

elect officers and arrange for the city
tournament
There will be a meeting of the officers of

AUTO TRACK RECORDS BROKEN
Meeting at Atlanta Ends without Amy
Serious Accidents.

AZ
ATLANTA, Ca, Nov, II. - Although
American track records were broken right
and left, the meeting on the new speedway
was finished yesterday without the loss of
a life and without an injury Of more than
the slightest Importance. George Robert
son, Lewis Strang, H. L. Fitzpatrick, John
Aiken and other drivers OF note declared
that the track is probably the safest in
the world. The safety lies largely in the
asphaltum used in holding the cement and
dirt together and which forms the surface
of the track. The climax Of the meet came
in the first race today, a 2OO-mile contest
for stock cars, which was won by L. A..
Disbrow, driving a Rainier 80" The racers
finished as follows: First, Rainier Dis
BROW. time, 2:5s:4s.s2; second. Fiat (Rob-
ertson), time, 2:57:4T05; third, Renault
Charles L. Basle), time, 2:5s:4305.
Eleven cars entered the contest, but those
named were the only ones to finish within
anything like normal time. The Marmon
car driven by Ray Barnes completed the
course long after the others had left the
track.
Up to the 1921 mile, George Robertson at
the wheel Of a Fiat go" seemed a certain
winner. He was three laps ahead Of all
other cars when he broke a chain and be-
fore he could resume he had lost fourteen
miles. Disbrow had been Following him
and assumed the lead, followed by Charles
Basic in second position. When Robert
son resumed he quickly overlook Basic,
but the most brilliant kind of driving
which he exhibited was not sufficient to
overcome Disbrow's lead, although Robert
son drove from 10 to Is seconds per mile
faster than the Rainier man. Although he
was four laps behind Disbrow when he had
repaired his chain, he was but two in the
rear when the Rainier pilot crossed the
wire, Dingley's Chalmers-Detro held thirt
place at the twenty-sixth mile when he
lost a wheel at the first turn.
At the fifty-eighth mile, Strang, lik

Harvard'S Strong
Offence Toe Much

Superior Punting of Green's is Out
weighed by Line Smashing
Of Crimson.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Nov. 14-Harvard's
smashing offense outweighed Dartmouth's
superior punting in a clean, ~well-played
gene today, which gave the crimson a vic
tory by a score of Y to 8. After sparring
for points and endeavoring to locate each
others weakness in the first half, both
sides settled down in the second and Har-
ward twice drove over Dartmouth's goa
line. A Dartmouth blank seemed Inevitable,
but the wearers of the green carried off
one Of their numerous successful onside
kicks in the last three minutes Of the game,
and standing on Harvard's twenty-four-
yard line, Captain Tobin made a beautiful
goal from placement.
Helped by a Dartmouth tumble on the
green's ~thirty-yard line early in the second
half, Harvard in nine rushes crossed Dart
mouths goal, rockingham making the
first touchdown. p. wilmington booted an
easy goal. An exchange of punts and a
successful Dartmouth onside kick gave the
green the ball on Harvard's eleven-yard
line, the nearest Dartmouth got to the
crimson goal. Three plunges failed to gain.
on a forward pass the ball landed in
~Frothingham's arms and he covered thirty
five yards before he was o~verhauled. A
crimson procession down the field placed
the ball on D~artmouth's seventeen-yard
line. .Wigglesworth, who had displaced
O'FlaHerty at quarterback, hurled a we'll
directed forward pass into Houston's arms
and that player dashed behind the Dart
mouth goal. Dartmouth rallied gamely and
carried the ball by an onside kick to the
Harvard fourteen-yard line, Captain Tobin
dropped back and sent the ball over the
crossbars from placement. The lineup:

DENVER NOT IN GOOD FORM
Defeat by Haskell Promises Victory
for Nebraska.
RENDERS WORK SHOWS UP WELL

kansas EIevens-Missouri
Next Year.

LINCOLN. Nov. n-Cspecial)-Denver's
defeat. the second one in two years, by
Johnny Bender's Haskell indian at the
Colorado capital yesterday, adds interest
70 the Thanksgiving day game between
the C"ornhuskers and the redskins; but
does not detract from the contest that
will take place between the Nebraska
eleven and the Denverites I'm the western
city next Saturday.
II has been the general opinion in west
ern foot ball circles this fall that Denver
was altogether too strong for the Has
kells, and that Koehler's aggregation would
eat up the Bender braves. There had
been, in fact, no doubt of this I'm the minds
OF the Cornhusker students. and the out
come Of the game yesterday was a big
surprise TO the local camp.
That Denver was not In form and played
much inferior ball TO the standard 1t set
early in the fall is the verdict that has
been given here. as the cause for its de-
feat, and the feeling is hi the pupils
OF Deacon Koehler will come up under
the sting Of defeat and play so fierce a
game against the C-ornhuskers next Satur-
day that Coles men will be defeated.
Before the Haskell game there was much
confidence in the Colorado eleven's strong
hold: was so overbearing, indeed, that, to-
gether with the effects of a hard schedule,
II resulted in the downfall Of Denver's
favorites.
Denver and the Mines.
The Saturday before the Haskell game
the Denver eleven had met the School OF
Mines eleven In one OF the toughest games
played IN the west this fall, and the
result Of the Haskell game indicates that
the Ministers we're badly battered up In
the Mines struggle, so that they could
not play up to standard against the In
dians.
The unexpected blow delivered by the
HaskslIs viii spur the Denver players on
and they are very likely to come back
at the "Cornhuskers, playing the fierces'
kind OF foot ball and making the Nebraska
men bear the brunt of considerable rough
work.
Reports OF the game at Denver are tC
the effect that the indian opened large
holes in Denver's lines. II this was the
case the Ministers will have to brace w
their forward before Saturday or elsC
the cornhuskers will rip up the Denver
defense like a shredded wheat biscuit. Tn,
Nebraska players have not met theii
match in the line this fall-Minnesota
Iowa and Kansas all had inferior for
wards-and they will be able to make i'm
mense gains through a weak line.
The heavy rain OF Friday and Saturday
put Nebraska field in such a sloppy condl
tion that IT cannot be used for practici

for the Denver game will be started.
Cole witnessed the game at Denver YES
terday and secured a lire on both elevens.
He knows the weak and strong points Of
both teams, and. since Haskell Is played
a week from Thursday, he will have to
build up a defense adapted to the style Of
play used by both the Indians and Denver
The systems OF play used by the Haskslls
and the Denver eleven differ. and this will
necessitate a variation in the defensi ye
play Of the Cornhuskers for the two games.
The Cornhuskers, during the next three
days, will be drilled in several offensive
plays that were employed with telling ef-
feet by Bender's team against the Ministers
yesterday. The forward pass was a play
that baffled the Denver eleven, and the
Cornhuskers have two varieties Of this
trick that are calculated to fool the west

valley Championship.
BY defeating Drake yesterday Missouri
narrowed the Missouri valley championship
race to a light between itself and the
Kansas eleven. These teams meet on
Thanksgiving day at Kansas City, when
the title will be settled.
Missouri, coached by Roper, an ex-
Princeton player, has the strongest eleven
that has played Kansas within ten years
and should make a big bid for the cham
%pionship. There is no denying that Kansas
is weaker than last fall, and it will have
to improve greatly over it's play in the
Nebraska game in order to win from The
SHOW me" tribe.
Nebraska students wish to see Missouri
take the championship, for there is a feel
ing in the local camp that the Jayhawkers
are not the strongest eleven in the valley.
Their showing against Nebraska was evi,
dence to the contrary.
The Columbia school has not been or
the Nebraska schedule for several years,
but there is a strong agitation in favor
Of taking it on next season, and the ath.
letic board is likely to vote TO do that
The game, II played, would be booked foI

Nebraska City Scores Only Two Points
on High school Team.
The South Omaha High school foot ball
companies Of malta on guard Saturday
afternoon by a score of 10 to 2. South
Omaha scored a touchdown in each half
and failed to kick the goal each time. Ne
braska City scored a safety after they had
carried the ball nearly to the goal and
there lost 1t on a tumble, which South
Omaha recovered. The South Omaha boys
were so near their line that when the ball
was fumbled by them in turn. they
could not recover and advance to the line.
The referee declared a safety though the
point was more or less disputed. This was
the only time when the South Omaha goal
was approached during the game.
The game was little more than a wallow,
although both teams at times exhibited
considerable speed in getting off the plays.
The South Omaha boys were determined to
wipe out the sting Of defeat left from
the Omaha and York games, while the
Nebraska City team was a little gingerly
about getting down in the mud in front of
the plays. The South Omaha boys pushed
them back often ten yards at a time.
The most successful Of these line rushes
was when johnnie Rain, as fullback, was
sent through the right tackle. The South
Omaha halfbacks, Meaney and Hickman,
were always with hin and added many
yards by hard pushing. Rain kept his feet
like a veteran, although it was his first
full game. Hickman, at right half, made
fine gains. Inghram at quarter in the Of
fensive play handled the ball with far
fewer fumbles than his opponent. He

Only one or two end runs were attempted.
The field was too wet for forward passing
and it was only attempted once by South
Omaha, and was made successful by the
ball touching a Nebraska City player and
being recovered by South Omaha. This
play gave South Omaha its opportunity to
score in the first half, At the end Of the
half the South Omaha boys were within
five yards of the goal and stopped to argue
a point Of the rules and allowed the time
to go by during which they should AVE
scored.
The score in the second half came after
the safety by Nebraska City had put the
ball in play at the twenty-five-yard line,
BY a series of line smashes the ball was
carried into the Nebraska City territory,
and then the boys tried a double pass, Civ

and gained twenty-five yards. From that
point the ball was advanced at every play

The best work by Nebraska City seemed
to be that OF Captain Betram Bone and
Frank Gilmore, the right half and full
back. Only an unlucky tumble prevented
a score for Nebraska City early in the
second half.
