Team LOks Good.

The high school foot ball team lined up
against the Creighton university eleven
yesterday for two short halves, giving the
coaches and followers OF the game
chance to get line on the different csnd,-
dates especially the new men
No attempt was made to run up scores
both sides took the ball Off and on and
tried out new formations
The last three weeks have been strenuous
ones for the Creighton candidates and
Judging from Yesterdays tryout the work
is now bearing fruit and the players are
showing themselves to be a capable and
willing bunch Starting out with light
practise the coach has gradually increased
the work until the players now appear TO
be in splendid physical condition The
scrimmages have demonstrated that there
will be strong competition for the various
places on the team and the man who

Bloedorns vacancy is causing the coach
no little worry. Three or four promising
men have been attempting to land this
1 place and the most promising is Dunn Of
Kearney.
The first bear story to emanate from the
Creighton camp is that Sierchs has handed

southern woman. Anne Pamela Cunningham.

of selling It this patriotic woman at once Sc

She then appealed to congress for the pur-
