Munager B 1. Thomas is working in dustriously. but withoui any unnecessary os- tentation, with the intent of giving Omaha the most formidable eleven that car ried the Gate City's colors upon the grid- iron field. The game on October 16 will be between the eleven already sclected by Manager Thomas for the regular team and the lowa college cleven. Of course the team that will represent the Young Men's Chiris tian association may not ve kept intact, as this opening contest is expected to demon strate the relative strength of the men and their fitness to permanently fill their re- spective positions. “There is no reason on earth," said Yalo footballist to me last evening. Young Men's Christian assoc orzanize a corking ood plenty of available timber in their ranks and they have men who know the game with the best of them. Wha's the team most needs 1s course of thorough and intelligent drilling. I'hero is no better way to become conversant with the scicntitic points of the game than by blackboard woric. A training card should also be prepared and the team obligate them- selyes to earry out its provisions relative to diet, exercise and sleep. OF course the or- iization has o good many obstacles to con- tend with. The professional and business men, to say nothing of the clerks and stu dents, upon” whose services it must largely depend, have not the time to practice that members of the big college teams have, aud of course they cannot hope to attain Such cftivicncy at play. They should get down to hard work, however, at once, for to play foot ball one must be hardencd and indurated to the sport.” ‘Ihe personnel of the stands is as follows: W. V. Coc, center.

A Resumo of the Tonnis Season, With the advent of October the tennis season way be considered ended. There are some enthusiasts, no doubt, who will be sticking to it for some time to come on pri- vate courts, and indeed the courts of the Omaha Tennis club on Harney street and Young Men's Christian association courts will not entively drop out of use until the snow comes, B3ut the season is over now so far as public tournaments and such affairs are concerned here was talk when the state tourna- August of gotting up an in for the early fall, but it to anything more than talk, and it won't do now.
