Dear Mrs. Schoder:
1 have recently received q letter

I was, as you may know, one of the
officer of Company III and was with
that company continuously, both at
Camp Dix and in France until 1 was
wounded at the end of last September.
However. I recovered sufficiently from
my wounds to get out of the hospital,
and prior to my return to the United
States I went back to see the boys
for a short visit. They were then To-

son. He was in splendid physi-

which only improved his appearance
and he looked hard as nails and ro-
bust. He seemed to be in gocs spirits
and had been promoted to Sergeant
Major of the Second Battalion, which
is a position of considerable respon-
sibility. and requires a great deal OF

asNoOKs. BERNET WRITES BOOK
Former Tiger Captain Tells History
Of 314th Motor Supply Train.

Lieut.. Milton E. "(Snooks'D Ber-
net, A. B. IA, University of Missouri,
captain of the Tiger basketball team
in 1914 and a former president of the
Y. M. C. A, has produced an authentic
history of the formation and move
ments, during the war, of the 314th
Motor Supply Train of the seth Divis-
ion, with which organization he was
identified as it's adjutant during the
war.
The four hundred surviving MEM
bers of that organization will receive
complimentary copies Of the book.
The st. Louis Republic carried a two
column write-up of Bernet's book last
Tuesday, telling something of the
author, the organization and its part
in the war.
After being graduated from the
University in 1914, Bernet travelled a
year in foreign countries, returning
to st. Louis to take a job as reporter
on the st. Louis Times, where he
worked until the war. He attended
the first officers training camp at
Fort Riley in 1917, where he was COM
missioned first lieutenant in the
quartermaster corps. Later he was
assigned to the Eighty-ninth Division
and sailed for France in June, 1918.
The book traces the activities of
+, the 314th Motor Supply Train from
the time of it's organization at Camp
Funston to its rehabilitation, after
engaging in the st. Mihiel drive, the
Argonne-Meuse offensive and it's en-
trance into Germany. 1t includes
maps, complete rosters, casualties
and appendices.
"It was the task of the 314th Mo-
tor Supply Train to furnish practic-
ally all of the transportation for the
Eighty Division in preparation
for the great st. Mihiel drive" Bernet
explains in his book in telling of the
organization.
The period of uncertainty follow
ing the signing of the armistice was
by far more trying on the men," he
says, than any other period when
the train was actually in action car

in the center of the Tiger line. So
far the Huskers have shown more
scoring power than the Tigers. Ne

Notwithstanding the strong Wis
consin machine couldn't do. The
Huskers scored a touchdown against
Notre Dame, and the Catholics de-
fense held Indiana helpless last Sat
urday. Nebraska drove across the
Sooner goal line for a touchdown
something the Tigers failed to do. The
Huskers' showing against the Cy-
clones must not be taken as sam
pie of the way they will play here.
The Huskers have the drive and pow
er to score against the best in the
West, and the Tiger line must show
the strength and endurance to stop
that offensive. For the team that
scores one touchdown will just about
win Saturdays game.
Since the Drury game the Tigers
have seosed just two touchdowns-
one against the Kansas Aggies, one
Of the weakest teams in the valley,
and the other, the result of Edwards
spectacular 35-yard run, against
Ames. Against both Drake and Okla
homa the Tiger offense failed when
the punch was needed for a touch
down. Lewis toe has been the Tigers
one best bet this year; "Chuck" has
counted all the points in the last two
games. But no drop kicker is good
enough to win when the opposing
team is penetrating the line for
touchdowns.
The Tiger line is good. At times
it is superb. That stand on the 2-yard
line in the Ames game was as mag
nificent a bit of football as has ever
been seen on Rollins field. But Sat-
urday that line is likely to be called
on to make such a stand not once,
but many times, for Nebraska is a
heavier and more experienced team
than Coach Miller can put in the field
and the Huskers are going to fight
like demons from whistle to whistle

difference in weight is less than five
pounds to the man. The probable
line-ups for tomorrow's game, with

Tigers VIII Have
to Fight to Win.

to Fight to Win.
Despite the gloom in the Cornhus-
ker camp and the optimism that is
met nearly everywhere around the
campus and in Columbia, the Tigers
should not be the favorites in Satur-
days game with Nebraska. They have
a chance to win, the best chance in
twenty years, but it is going to take
better football than they have played
in any game this year; it is going to
take more offensive power than they
have ever shown; it is going to take a
defense capable of holding the heavy
Husker line and powerful backs not
only for the first half, as at Oklaho-
ma, but for a full sixty minutes of
gruelling play against heavier and
more experienced opponents.
No one knows better than the I'll
ger coaches and players wherein the
Tiger machine is lacking, and behind
closed gates week of hard work is
going on out at Rollins Field in prep
aration for the game Saturday. The
Tigers know there is fight ahead,
that there is no place for the overcon-
fidence that is met in many places
around Columbia. They know that
Schultz has heavy, experienced ma
terial; that he is more eager to beat
Missouri than any other team he
meets this year; that the Cornhuskers
are going out on Rollins Field to
fight with the desperation of men
spurred on by the disgrace they feel
is in their past record. They are
going to try TO take out on the Tigers
what Iowa and Notre Dame and the
despised Cyclones have handed out
to them. And if the Tigers let down
in the least and fail to carry the fight
to the enemy every minute of that
game Saturday, it will be a sad home
coming for the hundreds who are
planning to return for the first Tiger
victory over Nebraska in the twenti-
eth century.
Huskers Are 10 Pounds
Heavier Than Tigers.
Schulte's men will outweigh the
Tigers about ten pounds to the man.
The Cornhuskers have team that
will, average about a years experience
more to the man than the Tigers.
They have heavy, powerful, veteran
backfeld, with Captain Dobson, a
powerful runner, whose punts aver
aged over 40 yards in the Ames game.
Schellenberg, a clever open field run
ner, who returned a kickoff SIS yards
Saturday, and the veteran fullback
Hubka. Critics seem to agree that
the weakest place in the Husker ma
chine is at quarterback, where Nc
Glasson has not been showing the
form expected of him. In the Ames
game Schultz was trying a new COM
bination, which helps to account for
the defeat. Twenty men were used
against the Cyclones, while the Ames
team had only one substitution. But
Schultz will not be experimenting
against the Tigers-the best lineup
he can muster will face Miller's men
and will fight for victory with des-
peration born of the anger and shame
felt at Lincoln over the Huskers'
three defeats and two ties. And the
only way the Tigers can win is to
fight a little harder, to charge lit
tie faster, to endure a little longer,
for in weight and experience the odds
are against them.

PARIS. July 5.-The American Red

tivities in France and will henceforIh
be occupied mainly in the small ma
tions of Eastern Europe, from FINLAND

Cross personnel, which has been en-
gagged either in military or civil rellet
in France, is now on the way TO Amer
lea or preparing to leave when trans
portation becomes available.
Before the end of July the big head
quarters in the Hotel Regina in Paris
will be given up, the commission for
Furope taking small Offices IN the Rue
Gabrielle. A small number Of the Red
Cross forces are winding up the dlstrl-
hutton Of supplies IN the devastated
regiops of France, where IN Jour
months s4OO0,OO0 in supplies has been
Given out. but most of this work has
been turned over to local French COM
