FIRST COLLEGE FOOTBALL
GAME PLAYED 80 YEARS AGO
Rutgers rooters had the first chance
to cheer IN the pioneer American col
leEe football game 80 years ago TO
day. The "bulldozers" Of the New
Brunswick twenty five" captured the
bail. after 2 bad kickoff by Nassau,
and within four minutes the bah was
sent hurtling through the Princeton
goal. But the Princetonians. who
were much bigger and heavier than
the enemy's forces. were not dis
couraEed. and they quickly got re-
venEe. The Nassau men charged into
the Rutgers mass. broke IL up, and
then with a long and well placed
kick. sent the pigslzin between the
Rutgers goal post Again sides
changed. and the New Brunswick
PLAYERS, grown wary, scored their
second goal. Nassau scored the fourth
goal. and matters stood even Then
Rutgers forged to the front, scoring
two more. Princeton turned the same
trick and the score stood four goals
for each team The excitement among
the spectators was now intense. and
it IS related that at one critical mo-
ment the occupants OF the fence be-
came so excessively enthusiastic that
the, support gave way and sent sew
eral scores tumbling TO the ground
Rutgers. which several times seemed
to have victory in its grasp, only to
be tied. rallied its forces and scored
the ninth and tenth goals winning
the contest
Another game was arranged for 2
week later. and was played at Prince
ton. the latter winning CVerwhelu-
inEly. u was proposed TO play off
the tie, but the faculties Of both IN
stitutions put their foot down on the
proposition, alleging that the inter
est IN the game was leading some
students to neglect their studies
Although Rutgers and Princeton
played the first intercollegiate con-
test. football was already being taken
up by other colleges. each one having
a different style OF play. Il was not
until the formulation Of a code TO
govern all college games that the
sport became really popular. Football
Is supposed 70 be a development OF an
old Roman game. while Others alleEe
that the first game was played IN
England with the head OF a Dane as

A Lustv Nebraska Infant.

Even a cursory examination OF the pages of
The Bee this morning will convince the reader
that the potash industry of the state is one of
great Importance. 1t represents the culmina-
ton of modern miracle. For uncounted years
the "alkali" lakes Of northwestern Nebraska
sparkled in the sunlight, their bitter waters a
disappointment alike to man and beast. Often
was the cowboys objurgatory arsenal empted
Of its most vitriolic explosives in comments on
these aecursed lakes What good could come
of theml
Chemistry answered the query, and now
the waters that so bedeviled the thirsty in days
gone by are turned by the magic of alchemy
into food and clothing, and other valuable serv-
ice to man. For in the clear depths of those
lakes was held the-nysterous salts that are in
loose way classified AS potash" These salts
are the basis of commercial fertilizer, whose
revivifyng influence stimulates the tired soil,
replenishes the elements of plant growth, and
gives the bountiful yield where without it little
or nothing grows
Nebraska has come to commanding place
in the production of potash for fertilizer and
other uses. Its output will relieve the United
States Of German domination in this respect
Just now the industry is threatened because
the German supply is being offered at price
below the cost of production in Nebraska, but
congressional action is promised to remedy this
situation
The future of the industry is assured
Eminent biologists give as their belief the
statement that the presence of the salts is not
exclusively due to surface conditions, but that
the lakes are fed from below, and that the rising
stream Of water passes through extensive min
eral deposits, teaching the valuable salts and
carrying them TO the surface for recovery by
evaporation. Whatever the source, capital and
enterprise have produced here most lusty in
FAINT industry, the growth Of which will benefit

Two Sets Of Fives.

When the authorities began to discuss the
war in its ethical and moral aspects, some four
years ago, one of the FIRST dogmatic pronounce
ments was that the restraints that apply to in
dividuais do not extend to nations We are just
now provided with concrete illustration of the
application of this principle.
Mr.. Wilson is lauded without stint for hav-
ing formed the greatest international trust ever
established Five great nations have entered
into "genteman's agreement" to take over
the business of governing the world. They will
admit their competitors to certain privileges
and permit them to share in the profits at a
stipulated proportional rate, but the direction
remains in the hands OF the bigHive.
Right alongside of this news appears con-
tinuation of the attack that is being made on
the big FIVE packing companies who have tried
to do in connection with food supplies what the
wiseacres at Paris propose for the governments
Of nations, to establish benevolent control The
contrast is not especially instructive, except as
it serves to illustrate and emphasize the diff
ference between nations and individuals.
