Lincoln, Neb., Nov. Especial
Telegram. Fighting with a for
lorn hope fostered vainly of the be-
lief that perhaps some Nebraska
star would shine once more, the
University of Nebraska foot ball
team went down to defeat before
the Iowa State college of Ames, by
score of TO 0. A drop kick by
Davis, half-back, in the second
quarter tailed a score that re-
mained final.
From the start the breaks of the
game were with the visitors. No
one of the 1000 rooters, who wit
messed the game believed for one
moment that the drop kick by the
Ames half-back would be the final
count of the day. Until late in the
third quarter when the Huskers
missed chance to score by bare
four yards, did the crowd know
that Nebraska was beaten.
There is jubilation in Lincoln.
Four hundred rooters and the
cadet band, which accompanied
Ames, paraded the streets Of the
city centering their jubilee before
the Hotel Lincoln. Bontires were
started in the main street and the
students pranced to their hearts de-
light for iowa State had beaten Ne
braska.
A heart-rending tiredness charac-
terized the Nebraska play through
out. Schulte's men tried hard to do
their best and at times got away for
brilliant runs, but the visiting de-
fense and pluck was too much for
them. Schellenberg's 65-yard run
at the opening of the second hall
was real thrill.
Notre Dame Stuff.

Score on Drop Kick.
The Cyclones tucked away their

play, the visitors essayed at vari.
