Little Hope Of Defeating Mis-

Men on Side Lines.

| Lincoln, Neb, Nov. S.-(Spec;al
Telegram.)-A corps Of alumni
coaches cropped onto Nebraska
field Wednesday to assist Head
Coach Schultz in conditioning his
eleven for the big game with Mis-
souri, at Columbia Saturday. With
four varsity men on the side-line
the Huskers look like losers.
Big Fred Dale, fullback, lent con-
siderable push to the back field IN
the scrimmage this week. The 200
pound phenom was driving low and
working generally with unexcelled
vim in today's scrimmage. Several
times he drew eight and 10 yard
gains through the freshman line.
At quarter, the Husker coach has
been using Newman regularly. The
Columbus basket ball stars prin-
cipal failing is that he has too little
experience.
At halves are Hewarth, Henry and
Captain Dobson. Elmer Schelen-
berg, erstwhile stellar line plunger,
is out Of the. game for at least two
weeks and won't be in the Mizzoo
game.
Numerous line changes have been
made. The Huskers leave tomorrow
afternoon for Columbia At the
Missouri town plans have been made
for monster celebration. In addi-
ton to converting the occasion into
'home coming day." the Tigers have
extended a special invitation to Kan
sas City foot ball enthusiasts to
come and see the Huskers beaten,
according to press reports.
Students here have been working
for several days for a special car.
Various organizations this week cans
vassed the school, and today made
the statement that at least two cars
of Nebraska rooters will make the
trip with the team.
The University Cadet band will
also go.
Talk of game with the Fort

champions OF the Rocky Mountain
conference, was prevalent.

extensively this week that game
had been scheduled to take place at
Denver on December 8. The. Husk-

Creighton man, made the Coyote

Proud of Bald Head.
Ole insists that he's proud of his
bald head. But he flatly denies the
allegation that he is old.
Ole was born in Wisner, Neb..
January %, 1896. He is just sweet
%. He played foot ball first with
Wisner when Kinky Walworth,
Owen Frank, the Kane brothers
and others of their ilk made that
section of the country. Last year
he was a sailor at Great Lakes

Accusation Unfortunate.
Ole says that accusation of old
age was extremely unfortunate for
him. While the girls have been

fudge and the like, Ole has been
receiving varied assortment OF
gold-handled canes and silver-spoked
wheel-chairs on account of his an
tiquity.
Ole is highly popular with the
fans. About five minutes after the
game starts he tosses his headgear
away and settles down to work. He

WHAT WILL YOU DO
ABOUT YOUR CATARRH?

might reasonably expect to be
cured by the use of local rene.
dies. But have you ever
known of one single person to
be freed from the slavery of
Catarrh BY any kind of local
treatment?
Why? Simply because you
have overlooked the cause of
these symptoms, and all of
your treatment has been mis-
directed. Remove the cause of
the clogged up accumulation
that choke, up your air pas
sages, and they will naturally
disappear for good. But no
matter how many local appli-
cations you use to temporarily
clear them away they prompt
ly reappear and will continue
to do so until their cause is re-
moved.
But if you will take a treat
ment that goes right down to
the very source of the disease
and attacks it at it's starting
point! then you are on the
right track, and can expect re-
suits. S. S. S., the fine old fif-
ty-year-old blood remedy is an
antidote to the millions of tiny
Catarrh germs with which
your blood is infested. A
thorough course of this rem
edy will cleanse and purify
your blood and remove the
disease germs which cause Ca
tarrh, and at the same time
build up and strengthen the
entire system. Don't waste
further time by continuing a
treatment that can make no
progress toward permanent
relief, but begin to take S. S.
S. today, and you will receive
the same benefit that others
have.
S. S. S. is sold by all 1rug
stores. Write for. free medi-
cal advice about your own
case to Chief Medical Adviser.

Improper Treatment Leads to
a Serious Stage.

Because you have doubtless
been fairly comfortable
through the mild summer
months, and free from the
soreness and irritation of the
membranes, do not make the
mistake of thinking that YOU
are rid of your Catarrh. For if
you suffered with this disease
last winter it will again be
with you in all its severity un-
less you have eliminated en-
tirely from the blood the
germs which cause the dis
ease.
This of course you have not
done if you have relied upon
the usual local methods of
treatment with sprays, oint-
ments, jellies, atomizers, To-
tions, ETC., the only possible eff
feet of which treatment is to
. afford but temporary relief.
For nothing but temporary re-
lief can be expected from
treatment which reaches only
the symptoms of the disease.
Are you going to further
,temporize with a disease that
leads to such a serious eondi-
ton? Don't you know that you
can use gallons upon gallons
of local treatment without The
slightest permanent benefit?
Just give the matter a little
careful thought, and you will
realize that it is but a waste of
time and money, besides seri-
ously jeopardizing your
health, to continue a method
of treatment that has proven
of so little value in making
any real progress toward gen.
uine benefit?
First of all find out just
what causes your Catarrh. If
it was merely a local irritation

High School Classic
To Be Played Here
Tomorrow Afternoon

The annual high school foot ball
classic will be played Friday after
noon, when the Blue River lads
from Beatrice tangle with the Cen
tral High squad. Central claims the
championship of the schools in
Omaha, due to the defeat of South
and Creighton. Creighton defeated
Commerce High, and on these
grounds Central asserts its claim.
The race for the Missouri valley
championship is now over as far as
Central High is concerned. The
Friday game will be the battle for
the championship of the state.
Beatrice was defeated by the Law
renee, Kas., team and is therefore
not interested in out of state titles.
There will be no school tomorrow
on account of the teachers conven
ton. This will allow both teams to
go through the final scrimmage and
signal practice before the combat.
Beatrice outweighs the Central
aggregation. Many Of the last years
veterans have returned to the grid
iron. and are showing UP well. Blood
good, who is considered to be the
fastest man in high schools of the
state, is playing in the backtleld.

Rumors About Gymnasium
Tell Of Big Changes in Line
Up-MiIIs Refuses to A.
firm or Deny Them.

When the Creighton eleven meets
Colorado college OH Creighton field
Saturday the lineup of the locals
probably will appear radically
changed from that of the Haskell
Indian contest. y
Trustworthy rumors are afoat
about the gymnasium toward that
end, but Coach Mills refuses to af-
firm or deny them. Nevertheless,
changes in his lineup in practice
show that the rumors are not un-
founded.
Here are some of the buzzings
about the gym:
Tip Long and Eddie Mullholand
will alternate at left halfback against
the Colorado Tigers, while Jimmie
Condor will be shifted from end to
right halfback, there to alternate
with Ray Moonan and "Tank" Man
ley. Gene Leahy will remain at full
back. Johnnie Driscoll and Mickey
Harmon will take turns at quarter
back.
Line Changed Also.
The line, too, it is said, will un-
dergo changes. Bill Nemzek will
appear at guard and Hump" Emery
will occupy Nemzek's present posi-
ton at left tackle. Cy Lynch, who
displayed rare ability against the
Haskell Indians. will play an end
Saturday.
George Bentlage, former lineman
at Dubuque college, probably will
get an opportunity to play on Satur-
day. This Mills affirms. Bentlage
has been showing some good stuff"
in practice this week, in the opinion
of the coach.
"Best Foot Forward"
The rumored backheld changes
are looked upon as the "best foot
forward" in Creighton foot ball.
Longs real place in the backfeld
is at left half. Mullholland, Condor,
Manley, Moonan and Long would
make the most aggressive set of
halfbacks ever gathered under the
Blue and White banner. With Cap
tain Gene Leahy at fullback and
Harmon and Driscoll at the pilot
position, the Blue and White back
field would doubtless present the
most formidable ground-gaining ma
chine Creighton has ever had.
Stress is being laid by Mills this
week on breaking up forward pass
plays.
Holman Highly Touted.
Holman, Colorado colleges right
end is touted as the greatest end in
the Rocky mountain region. prin-
cipally because of his ability to
snatch long forward passes from the
air. Spectators at Saturdays game
may expect some sensational work
from Holman, cacording to advices
from Colorado Springs. Holman can
tackle. too. The Colorado Springs
Gazette calls him the inventor of
the. nose dive" tackle in which the
man carrying the ball meets terra
frma seven times harder than he
does after an ordinary tackler hits
him and his feet are jerked back
about two yards from the place he is
tackled.
McTavish, fu1lback, who played a |
great game last Saturday when the
Tigers defeated the Colorado School
of Mines, ! to 8. is also highly
recommended by western sport |
critics. The School of Mines had
not tasted defeat until they met
Colorado college. The. defeat of the |
Blasters is regarded here as
the strongest indication of the
Tigers strength.
