CRETE, Neb sept. 23.-(Special. J.
Doane's foot ball prospects are very en-
ccuraging at the present time. On Monday

twenty men on the gridiron. On the first
day of enrolment twenty-five donned the
moleskins. Seven more came out Wednes-
day and about forty candidates either prac-

gain as much by watching the veterans at
first as doing awkward work themselves.
Among the prominent candidates for the
varsity are Luke, who stands unrivaled as
center; Stutt, tall, heavy man who is try
ing for guard position; korab ana Adams
who are competing for the other guard
position; Bronson, who Is sure of place
in the line and will probably play tackle;
Harvey and King, who are trying to make
the other tackle position; Grffiths, who
will be one end; Wilkinson, last years
quarter, who is being tried as an end; Dick
mson and Kretsinger who are bidding for
the place a. quarter, and Rice Goebel and
Sawyer, who art doing good work in the
back field. Others whose chances are good
are Higbee Candee Guy Mickle and Arthur
Wendland, There is enough material on
hand for three teams.
The practice this week has been falling
on the ball, tackling the dummy, signal
work, blocking and breaking through the
line and trying the new rules.
A special training table is carried on at
Chadron Academy hall, which is the old
church building now used as a boarding
