HASTINGS, Neb., Dec. S.-SpccIal.)
The movement for the organization of a
Nebraska high school foot ball conference
wu definitely put (Under way today by
Coach Bcbissler of the Hastings High
school. In letters to tho athletlo author
ities of the several schools ho suggests
the following plan!
1. That the teams bf omsTm; Lincoln,
Beatrice, York, Aurora, Grand Island.
Kearney, North Platte and Hastings form
an Interscholastlo conference, to be called
the "j Nine." or any other suitable
name that may be decided upon.
2. That the athletlo heads of these
schools meet In Lincoln during the Christ
mas holidays and elect a committee to
have supervision over conference foot
hell.
3. That schedules be Arranged In such
a way as to moke It possible to decide
the championship with but one post
season game, or none at all.
1 That the conference recognize no
championship claims of nontnembers.
6. That the committee have the power
to admit to membership any team which
has made a showing for more than one
year which Justlfes lis being- so admitted.

Iowa Books Four
Foot Ball Games
IOWA CITV, la.. Dec J. (Special.)
Four games are already fixed on the
Iowa foot ball schedule for next year,
while two others are regarded as al
most assured. The Btate Teachers will
open the season hero, as usual, while
contracts are already signed for games
with Northwestern, Ames and Nebraska.
Whether the Cornell college gome, tho
second on the schedule, will be continued
to uncertain, as the management may
desire to take on a game with some
pther of the minor colleges or the state.
It Is hoped that a continuance of the
Chicago game can be arranged, as the
contest Is a popular one here. The two
years' contract with Indiana has ex
pired, and the distance between the two
cheQis may prevent Its renewal. There
Is much local sentiment for a Kama with
Illinois, as the contests with the orongo
and blue team formerly proved big at
tractions here. The dates of the four
games which are settled will be:
October State Teachers at Iowa City,
ircipoer aH-.norinweiern at Iowa City
November It Ames at Ames.
November II Nebraska at Iowa City.

Organizing Basket
Ball Team for Year
At a meeting held at the University of
Omaha by the Athletlo association, Clin
ton Ilolsey was elected as student man
ager of the basket ball team, while Stan
loy High was elected as assistant busi
ness manager. Flnley Jenkins, who was
'.elected basket ball rnanagor by tho
Athletlo association some time ago, was
forced to resign becauso of the large
amount of school work he Is carrying.
The new rnanagor are working on a
schedule and expect to have It completed
In the course of a couple of weeks.
Basket ball prospects at the University
of Omaha are rather favorablo for tho
coming season. With only two ft last
year's team out of the squad, and with a
great many candidates on hand It Is ex
pected to turn out one of the fastest
(teams the school haa had for soma tinie.
Tho two players on last year's team who
will not play this season are Neal Far
sons and Clinton Halsey. Doth of there
men were stars and their absence from
the team will 'be greatly felt However,
the large amount of new material on
hand will undoubtedly produce other
capable players.
The selection of a coach for the varsity
squad giving the athletlo committee a
great deal of trouble. Howover, one la
expected to be secured before the week Is
over.
The preparatory students at the school
have organised tholr team and have
made a .treat deal of progress the last
week Inahelr practice.
Under the guidance of Coach Tablsca
they expect to have a star team ths

Bellevue is Warming
Up for Basket Ball
Now that the men bavo recovered from
foot ball Injuries somewhat, Bellovue
will open the bosket ball season Monday
with a series of class games. For the
last week the boys have been shooting
goals and playing a few scrub gomes and,
If appearances can be credited, more doss
Is being shown than for some time. All
of the old team Is back with the excep
tion of Maxwell at guard. Ills loss will
be keenly felt In the team work until a
new man can be fitted to the position.
The class having the most promising
outlook In the coming series la the sen
iors, who have the heaviest and most
experienced team and' it is generally ex
pected of them to win the .tournament.
Most of the Interest Is centered on the
freshman-sophomore battle, as the class
rivalry between those two classes Is at
fever heat. In the two scraps held tho
freshmen have had rather the best of the
argument and the sophs are burning to
avenge themselves on their too precocious
enemies.
Coach Throw Just returned from a
meeting of the state association, where
the representatives of the various sohools
aranged tentative schedules, but these
are not yet official, as they have not yet
been ratified by the business managers.

LINCOLN, Dec. 2. (Special Telegram.)
Max Towle, elected captain of the 1M4
Cornhuakors, may be declared Ineligible
to play next season by the Nebraska ath
letlo board. Towle's record Is being ex
amined to determine whether he had par
ticipated three full years In college ath
letics. If it Is found that he has played
the full number of years another eelctlon
will be held.
From an Investigation of the records
It appears that Towle has played two
years of college foot ball, Including the
season Just closed. In addition It Is al-
I leged that he played base ball 'during the
spring of 1912, Just after that branch of
sport was revived at Nebraska, follow
ing Its knockout by the summer base boll
rule.
Thero la some dispute whether the base
ball team that season could bo counted
college sport inasmuch as letters were
not granted and the athletlo board took
no official notice of the team. Only two
games were played at home, Including
Tarklo university and Kearney Normal
nhllo Doane college was played at Crete1.
The matter has been called to tho at
tention of the athletlo board by Dr. It. O.
Clapp, the secretary and will bo decided
by the eligibility committee at Its next
meeting. This will be before the letters
are. granted and the Vote taken to con
firm Towlo's election Which was only in
formal. Providing Towle Is disqualified another
election will be held. Warren Howard,
Victor Ifalllgan and Beck are tho most
llkoly candidates.

"BROOKS" IS FINED FIFTY
FOR FALSE ADVERTISING
Max Rosenthal, merchant, operating un
der the name of George Brooks, was fined
fSO and costs In police court after evi
dence had been heard as to hit having
Issued false advertising..
The point In question was the fact that
advertisements to the effect that the
Brooks Clothing company's lease expired
the first of tho coming year was a mis
representation, as the lease extends
longer than that date.
Rosenthal asserted he had secured a
continuance of the lease after the adver
tising had been Issued, and therefore hod
placed before the publlo a mere state
ment of fact. Judge Foster could not
see It Rosenthal's way. The defendant
appealed the case.
The prosecution was Instituted by the
Ad dub v protection to the publlo
through elf exposure of Rosenthsl's meth
ods. It was suggested by the defense
that the prosecution by the Ad club was
Instigated by retail competitors, but this
was not the case. Not only was the
prosecution Instituted by the club alone.
but the retailers, when asked to co-op
erate refused, for the reason that the
association thought that the prosecution
by competitors might prejudice the case.

The Chicago probation department which
superintends the spending of money se
cured through tho Mothers' pensions, Is

cious expenditure of the money received
by pensioned mothers. Miss F. N. Nes

ing the little amount of money go a long
ways.
Everyone, Including the children. Is
taught to cook simple but nourishing
meals and to -cook nothing else. One of
the' ways Miss Nesbltt teaches economy
Is by abstlnance from butter. Hie urges
the substitution of butterine, which sho
pronounces much cleaner and much more
palatable than the poorer grades of but
ter. Butterine sells at a much lower price
than butter, the highest priced butterine
selling for 26 cents, while the poorest
grades of butter cost more. Local dealers
are selling much more butterine than us

an extensive butterine campaign and

Sammy Strang, Famous Pinch Hit

LIVING IN FRENCH CAPITAL

Then Expected naclt on Amer
ican Sod and Its
, ' 'Theaters.
For many years, up to and Including
1909, the name of Sammy Btrang, the fa
mous base ball player who won two pen
nants by his marvelous pinch hitting,
was a household word among base ball
fans the wide world o'er. Then Strang
disappeared from view completely and
no one discovered his hiding place until a
few days ngo. Ho ta In Paris, France,
and Is a social lion, a friend of artists, at
home In studios and theatrical green
rooms, sought after by Paris society, and
a hero at fashionable teas, excepting
when lje can dodge them.
Strang has developed into a singer, a
baritone, and he promises to become one
of the stars of tho world. He has been
taking vocal culture for a year and a
half and Is now considered as a recruit
for the Paris grand opera.
Years ago when ho was a base ball
player Strang sang In a quartet with
Mathcwson, Fred Knowles (who is now
dead), and John darnel. Ho had a good
volco, but ho couldn't read music. Oscar
Beanie, one of the best baritones In the
world, knew Strang had a good voice be
cause they were both kids together In
Chattanooga and sang togother. Seagle
took Strang In charge after his base ball
career ended and took him to Paris,
where he secured an audience before Do
Rcszlce.
Do Reszke took a fancy to Strang, and
for threo years he has acted as teacher
to the former pinch hitter. Now Strang
has a voice, a grand and golden baritone,
rich, full, vibatlng, sympathetic, touching
tho heart strings. He is only worried by
one thing. He does not know whether
to Blng In Paris or to return to America
and strike out here. He would like to
Bet a reputation in Paris, but the longing
for America Is potent within his soul, and
it is expected that it will be but a short
time before Americans will sit spell
bound, entranced before the musical tones
of Sammy Strang.
Railroader Has a
Hankering to See
the Sun Shine Again
IL L. Snyder, chief clerk In the office
of the general manager of the North
western railroad, thinks he has grounds
for a "kick," In spite of the fact that
he had a good Thanksgiving.
"I haven't seen the sun for even a
minute slnoe November H," be says. "If
I don't get a chance to see It soon, I'll
begin to wonder If It has permanently
deserted this part of tho world."
Before the fog and cloudy weather
struck Omaha Mr. Snydor was away on
a western trip, and says that at Cheyenne
ana other cities where he went the fog
and cloudy sky were oven more pro
nounced then they are here at the pres
ent time. As he returned east to
Omaha the fog and clouds preceded him,
so that his period of sunless experience
haa been much longer than if he had
stayed at home.
