Lincoln, Neb., Oct. with Jumbo
Stiehm applying oil to the gearing. the
football machine at Nebraska univer-
sity is at last under Roadway. With
two weeks Of the hveliest sort of scrim-
maging practice and the first game of
the season at hand, the Cornhuskers
being opposed by the Kearney Nor
mails, Nebraska boosters in general
are in a mood to predict campaign
of achievement. One thing certain.
Stiehm's proteges are making rapid
progress and displaying polish in the
mastery of the game. The answer is
that Stiehm makes them work. The
early season scrimmaging has been
hercer than veteran followers at the
Cornhusker institution have witnessed
in years. The weather has been cooler
than usual and the list of varsity can
didates outnumbers former seasons.
This has enabled the Cornhuskers' new
instructor to push the practice and get
results.

absence OF Captain Costello and Jew
Byrnes, the ground gaining tackle, de-
feated the strong Cooper college eIev-

found ground gaining difficult and out
OF many forward passes tried. COM
paratively few counted for anything.
In general the play was fast and
hard, the Catholics having the advan-
tage at nearly all stages of the game.
McCue's brilliant thirty-five round for
a touchdown and Rabbits fifty-yard
run on the kick off, with Foley's de-
fensive work, saved the game from be-
ing altogether featureless.
The team that represented Cooper
on the local field was the strongest
that institution ever put out. They
played earnestly and aggressively at
all times and under the capable direc-
ton of Quarterback Buchanan gave
the local couegians a pretty stiff
fight.

Pitching Question Main One to
Be Answered by Series.
WATCH THE BASES

PurlOiners May Have Trouble
With Athletic Catchers.
Records Made by Members of
Two Contending Teams.

Dopesters all are agreed that the de-
Gliding element in the world s series
for which plans are rapidly nearing
completion will be the pitching. Mat
theWson and Vanguard are to be pitted
against Bender and Coombs. There is
little question of MattheWsOn and Ben
der delivering the goods under the
stress of the series. Blk Six is at his
best in a critical situation. In 1905,
the Athletics failed to count in the
three games he pitched. The Indian
is the chief fear of the Giants though
Matty beat him 2 to in that series
of 1905. Coombs is said to have secur-
ed the control which alone has been his
| handicap. Marquard has proven
sensation after a bad start this season
| and has the best record of all the
pitchers for the series. What he Will
do under the nervous strain of
worlds series against a bunch of hit
ters like the Athletics is the question
to be answered.
Watch the Base Running.
Base running will have a great part
to play in the series because both
teams have brilliant men in this de-
partment. Devore, the leading pur-
loiner OF the National League, is doped
to electrify the games and vie with
Collins who covered himself with glory
in the series of 1910
Behind the hat Meyers has an edge

L..

second Herzog at third has come to
the front by bounds and because OF
his baserunning, is probably a better
man than Baker AT short, Fletcher,
a. youngster, is expected to show ex-
ceptional class for McGraw, though
Barry,s experience will give him the
best of 1t.
In the outfield, McGraw has Devore
to outclass Lord but Snodgrass and
Murray are no match for Oldring ana
Murphy though Snodgrass is fast on
the sacks.
Giants Struggle Has Been Hard.
The fact that McGraw has had to
use all his power to cinch his cham
pionship prevented him giving Mat
thewson and Marquard q needed rest
and the same applies to Catcher Mey-
ers. He was forced to work these
three men all the time to get chance
at the worlds championship while Con
ME Mack rested easily, grooming MS
twirlers for the great series.
AS far as records go to show the
Athletics have the Giants beaten be-
fore the series begins but that isn't
altogether a safe bet on short SERIES
The Mack pitchers show a better rec
ord and the team a better hitting rec
ord in nearly every position The fact
that these records were made in diff
ferent leagues against different pitchers
robs the comparison of direct sig
nifcance. The records follow:

Pueblo Chieftain: The Indians are
going at a mighty fancy clip these days

ever witnessed in these parts. After
playing two of the finest games of the
season, and making it three straight
from Omaha, only 210 people were out
yesterday. Everything considered. the
here has not been what II
should, since the first Of July. The
team will only play here six more days
this season. The club is going good,
is fighting for business men to show
that they want and appreciate a win

the big important series with st. Jo-
seph. A big crowd will go a long ways
towards encouraging the boys to vic

doing right well. a number of fans arc
getting in the habit OF saying what
Isbell should have done after the dam

suggestions to make. make them in
