Omaha Coal Men
Said to Fear Flood
Of Illinois Product

"a feeling Of apprehension pre-
walls in Omaha lest eastern operators
will bring sufficient pressure to bear
upon the Fuel administration to
cause Washington to remove the
zoning restrictions" says the Coal
Trade Journal of New York in its
Omaha correspondence. This coal
men say, would be disastrous to the
coal interests of the section, and
yet there is feeling that if the big
eastern operators are anxious for a
western market for their output, they
will manage to put it across.
I'VE are at their mercy" said one
jobber. 'They will influence the
Fuel administration to remove the
zones if they want them removed
badly enough, and our dealers here
will be facing the food of Illinois
coal at figure far lower than the
figure they will have to have for the
western coal on which they have
stocked up heavily at the govern
ment's request
"If they only give US so days
to move our coal here, and give the
retailers a chance to empty their
bins of their western coal before the
zone system is removed" said an
other jobber, then l believe things
can be adjusted, but it would GER
tainly be a mistake to remove these
restrictions now" ...

is expected to develop into the
greatest gridiron battle in Iowa this
season is carded for Drake stadium
here next Saturday November 3O),
when the Camp Dodge division
team and the University of Iowa
clash.
Both teams have shown increas-
ing strength, and their victories last
Saturday-Camp Dodge over Ne

contest.
Dutch" Platz, one time Creigh-
ton star, will be out of the Camp
Dodge lineup for the rest of the
season, as he broke his arm in the
first half of the game at Lincoln last
week. His loss will be felt keenly.
Iowa's lineup has reached high
stage of development, showing rare
teamwork, clever handling of for
ward passes, and a stubborn de-
tense, once it gets going good.

Set for st. Paul Avia-

Four inches of snow was nothing
in the young lives of the huskies of
the Fort Omaha foot ball team, and
for nearly four hours yesterday
morning they worked out in Miller
park. They were put through a fast,
stiff scrimmage by 1t. John G. Nc
Kay, coach. The team is now ready
for Saturdays game with St. Paul
Aviation Mechanic school at Rourke
park.
Lieutenant Spang, the new quar-
terback, is rapidly getting into ex-
cellent condition despite the fact he
had been out of the game for seven
years, last playing at Harvard. His
speciality is drop kicking. Yester-
day he dropped few pretty ones
over the posts from the IS and 40
yard lines.
Cripples All Recover.
AS the team lines up today there
are no cripples, all men having re-
covered from last weeks battle.
The backfeld has been changed. As
is now stands King is at full, Spang
at quarter, and Faulk and Eudaly
are the halfbacks. Werlich has been
shifted to end. Mandell will play

a reserve back. Besides the var
sity team, Mckay has more than a
dozen capable subs" to put into the

NO CREIGHTON
And N0TRE DAME
CAME SATURDAY
Indiana Team Unable to Play
With All QuarterbaCks
Out or Injured at
Lincoln.

Owing to severe injuries to its
principal foot ball men, Notre
Dame, which Creighton university
hoped to meet Saturday, has declin-
ed to play the game.
The team was without quarter
backs entirely, according to Coach
K. K. Rockne. 1t played the last
quarter with Nebraska with no reg
ular quarter in the game. OF the
four men for this position, one is
out of the game for funking, one
was not brought on the trip be-
cause of injuries and Bohan and
Lockard were injured yesterday at
Lincoln. Each one of these men
sustained a torn ligament in the
knee and to play again this week
might make both permanent Grip
pies.
Notre Dame played the big game
of its season last week when it de-
feated Purdue, 70 to e. and Rockne
did not feel justified in adding an
other contest so soon.
The three Notre Dame backs are
also in very poor shape as they all
are suffering from injuries.
Coach Mills of Creighton said last
night he was very sorry indeed not
to be able to get a game with Notre
Dame. Coach Mills had been try
ing to schedule a final game with
some leading team in view of the
many cancellations due to influenza
Creighton has a team of big>cali-
Der this year," said Mills. "Creigh-
ton regrets exceedingly that it will
be unable to prove its mettle."
