To show how difficult it will be to
play college games in October. two
games listed between colleges in
Maryland, one of the smallest states
in the Union, will have to be can
celed because it will be utterly i'm
possible to make the trips in time
to arrive at the destinations to play
in the afternoon. Some few games
will be played, but not many, and
the ones that are played are not like
ly to be very important.
More latitude is to be given in No
vember. Longer trips are to be al
lowed, and in all probability con-
tests will be listed every Saturday.
Two trips may be taken that involve
being away from college forty-eight
hours, a much longer period than
the average foot ball journey re-
quires.
Colleges everywhere are busy try
ing to straighten out their schedules.
If each institution plays two games
with other colleges in October they
will be lucky. Most of the men in
charge of athletics are working to get
adjusted so that there may be arranged
contests for every Saturday in that
month and Thanksgiving day or the
Saturday following Thanksgiving. A
dearth of contests in October should
result in full schedules everywhere in
November. with a strong possibility
that the season will run on into De-
cember. provided the weather allows.
Practically all institutions have
turned over their athletics to the mil
itary authorities, and the policy In
athletics will be governed solely by
places. Most colleges that have taken
such action have announced the abro-
cation of all contracts with high
salaried coaches and have placed the
entire charge of affairs concerning
athletics in the hands of commanding
tary authorities Immediately have re-
engaged the coaches and at others
the coaches are seeking more essen
tia1 employment.
Probably the action of the COM
mittee on education and special train
tended to do away almost entirely
with everything during October that
might in the least interfere with the
organization work in the various
units of the Students Army Training
Corps. In most colleges the Work
is in confusion and probably will not
get under way in an organized state
before the middle of the month at the
earliest. In November things are
likely to be in shipshape, with every
thing running smoothly and accord
ing to schedule. In that month a
few absences from college will not
hurt the general work, and probably
the value of GENERALIZATION of spirit
and morale will more than offset any
losses in other ways. If that is the
committees purpose it unquestiona-
bly, has acted wisely in curtailing
foot ball for the next three weeks.

foot ball season next Saturday, st.

lieved that the controversy soon will

would harm the sport. which has been
a benefit to the Crescent city from a

BIG VICTORY FOR IOWA
Defeats Nebraska Foot Ball War

1899, IL to O.

LINCOLN. Neb., October 5.-The
University of Nebras ska foot ball
squad, champions of last years
Missouri valley conference, was de-
feated today by the University of
Iowa team. IL to 0. 1t was the first
game the Nebraska team has lost
to Iowa since 1899. Superior charg-
ing ability by the Iowa team was
responsible for Nebraska's defeat.
Nebraska lost it's best chance to
score in the first quarter, when it
carried the BALTIC Iowa's vineyard
line and then lost it on downs.
Iowa's scores all came in the third
quarter on two touchdoWns.

The operating pavilion is a tent
erected over q metal floor The outfit
includes N-ray plants and sterilizing
appliances. Electricity for light and
for operation of the X-ray outfit is
supplied by a motor and dynamo, car
ried on a truck.
By these advanced methods surgeons
are saving human lives today in
cases where a few years ago the
patient would have been counted as
MORALLY wounded. This is partly
due to the fact that with this modern
equipment and swift movement the
most difficult and delicate operation
may be performed oftentimes within
sound of the big guns along the line
of battle.
Some of the best known surgeons
in the United States are engaged in
this work and daily and nightly are
performing operations during battle
which would have been impossible in
previous wars.

Qe1eat OF case.
1t is said that cost of materials for
eQuipping foot ball and other athletic
teams is bound to take another big
jump before long. If that happens
the War Department is not likely to
have to bother about any further re-
strictions on athletics. The present
high prices already are restricting
sports. and another rise will just
about abolish them.
A big chap who is student at
Maryland State was asked by another
student why he did not go out for
foot ball. The big fellow replied:
I'D like to. but foot ball is too
dangerous and rough a game"
That chap did not understand the
roar of laughter that went around
until he happened to realize that he
was a soldier in training for a COM
mission in the Army.

in the third inning. With one down
Love singled to left, Wally Schang
playing the ball badly in the sun.
Whereas he should have made fair
catch of the hit, he was lucky to trap
it. Gilhooley promptly forced Love-
but the change was in favor of speed,
for Gil slipped around to third on
Peck's long single to left. A double
steal was put in operation, Ind Gil
scored as Scott touched Peck out ON
the base line, dispute ensuing, though
it was plain the Yankee had come
across ere Scott nabbed Mr.. Peck and
Paw.
The Yanks tied it in the seventh.
With one down Pratt singled, and was
forced by Pipp. Bodie hit a tremendous
smash to left centre. and Amos Strunk,
taking the ball on the bound, began a
most unusual juggling act. He juggled
the ball and juggled it again, and just
when it seemed he was to stop he
juggled it some more. So Pipp ran
around to the plate, having no place
else in particular to go.
After filling the bases with none out
in the tenth, the Yankees won out in
the eleventh. when with one down Ba-
ker, Pratt and Pipp singled-major
league singles, every one Of them. So
young Mister Higgins still preserved
his baseball pantaloons intact.

Rube Benton, in His First
Game of the Season, Wins
Southpaw Holds Braves to
Six Hits Well
Scattered

BOSTON, May 9.-It's the same old
story. The Giants continued their mad
rush here to-day by defeating the Bos-
ton Braves, 5 to 1. Some time, some
where, the National League champions
will be stopped, perhaps, but Boston
has done its best and failed.
McGraw chose Rube Benton, who had
not started game before this year, to
keep the ball rolling on to another pen
nant. And Rube, after his long rest,
which carried through winter and
spring, lived up to the fondest expecta-
tions of John Josephus. 1t might be no
compliment to Rube to say that any old
pitcher can win for the Giants these
days, but it must be said that Benton
was on the job every minute and de-
served the victory.
Only six scattered hits did the Braves
CLEAN from the southpaw slants of
Rube, and Herzog was the only Brave
to cross the plate. Or course the ex-
Giant was not bit pleased at the
honor thrust upon him. He loves the
Giants and McGraw.
The New Workers did not daily. In
the very first inning they fell hard on
the offerings of Left Nehf, the ace of
the Boston pitching staff. Ross Young
opened the carnage with a single to left
field and advanced to second on a wild
pitch. Benny Kauff hit to Nehf, who
made a belated throw to third, and both
runners were safe.
Rehg Stars Twice
Burns fouled to Konetchy, but Heinie
Zim came through with double to left
that scored Young and put Kauff on
third. Larry Doyle singled to left,
tallying Kautf. Heinie in an endeavor
to follow Benny across the plate was
cut down by a fine throw of Rehg. The
Boston outfielder gained more applause
from the fans by hts running catch of
Fletcher's long foul. But the Giants
had two runs.
In the fourth inning the Braves
aroused themselves sufficiently to make
one run. With one man out Herzog
singled to right field and took second
on Kelly's safe smash to centre. A
double steal advanced both runners and
Rehg walked, clogging the paths. Red
Smith sent fly to Kauff. on which Her
zog counted Benny made wild throw
and Kelly attempted to follow Herzie
across the rubber but was run down by
the Giant infeld. Kelly protested so
strongly that the umpire told him his
days work was done.
The Giants, perhaps bit fearsome
of their one-run lead, gathered two
more tallies in the fifth as result of
singles by Young and Kauff, and a
triple to right centre by George Burns
Two men were ont when all this hap
peoed and Heinie Zim said enough" by
fouling to Wilson.
The final run for the Giants came in
the seventh and no less a parsonage
than Benton did the counting. Rube
walked and kept on walking when
Benny Kautf tripled to right field.
What's the use?
