\? \ A THE BEE: OMAHA, MONDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1916. DOC STEWART HAS T0UGH JOB AHEAD _ Nebraska Mentor Will Make Self Miracle Man if He Re- _peats Stiehm's Success. “PUNCH IN PINCH" LACKING '/By FRED S. HUNTER. Doc Stewart, the new Nebraska mentor, has something of a task ahead of him if he hopes to lead his Corn- <husker charges through a successful season as his predecessor, Jumbo Stiehm, did for tfi able assistanceyof Vic Halligan, Guy Chamberlain, hick Rutherford and one or two others. Lack of weight in the backfield and |12 the absence of an individual star upon whom he can depend in the pinches are the problems most seriously con- fronting the coach and he is sched- uled to spend many a sleepness night and many a tedious day before Thanksgl;xjng rolls around. That “punch in the pinch” which characterized Nebraska elevens . in ~1913, 1914 and 1915 is missing this year, -In 1913 whenever Nebraska had the ball under the shadow of the enemy’s_goal posts, a touchdown, or at least a goal kick for three points, was practically assured, because IVic| Halligan wore the rags of Nebraska that year. In 1914 there was both Halljgan and Chamberlain<o deliver in the pinch and in 1915 there was Chamberlain. If one would study the records of these three great Nebraska years he would find that Halligan and Chamberlain were largely responsible for all of the Huskers’ big victories. Breakers Ahead. But Stewart hasn’t got any Halli- gan or Chamberlain, he hasn’t a man anywhere near their class, and his problem is going to be a lot stiffer than any Stiehm ever tackled. Twice Saturday in the game against the Kansas Aggies the Cornhuskers had the ball within a few inches of the Aggies goal. One time'they had four downs to make a yard. It took them three. One time they had two downs to make a yard. They failed to make it. That’s the big defect Stew- art must remedy in ordér to give the Cornhuskers another championship. d Defense Is O. K. Stewart has made wonderful prog- ress in working out a-defense. Scor- ing against the Cornhuskers is going to be a tough job this vear, The Kan- sas Aggies Saturday, with a good team, never had a chance. If the Huskers continue to exhibit the same superior brand of defensive foot ball no apprehension along these lines need be felt by Cornhusker support- ers, But the offense needs bolstering up, and, as his material can only be described as fair, Stewart will make himself a miracle man if he/repeats the successes of the fortunate Stiehm. That the Cornhuskers will probably, with an even break in the luck, cap- ture another Missouri Valley cham- jonship. is conceded by the greater plirt of valley gridiron followers, but it's nothing more than an even bet on the Oregan Aggies and the odds are on Notre Dame for the big Thanksgiving climax. Stichm Gets Lacing. The lac’x?\g administered to the proteges of one E. Stichm by the warriors of Alonzo Stagg *caused something of a titter throughout Ne- braska. When Stiehm went to In- diana predictions that he would jam against a stonewall without the serv- ices of such as H‘f‘l‘igan and Cham- berlain were frequent. And they pioved out Saturday, for the Chicago- ans had it ‘easy, and Chicago got a blackeye a week ago when Carleton walloped the Maroons. That Ames will be Nebraska’s strongest contender for the Missouri Valley title was evidenced by the de- feat given Kansas. The Towa farmers liaye assembled a formidable arrav of gridiron talent this fall and give prom- 1se of putting up a stiff battle against the Cornhuskers when they clash the {irst Saturday in November. Kansas does not appear to be as strong ad last year. Missouri, heralded as a world-beater, only defeated Washing- ton, which never is very sttong, 13 to 0, and.apparently has not the class it has been said to possess: Gophers Hold Edge. Minnesota continues to hold the edge in the Western conference by its overwhelming defeat of North Da- kota. The Gophers look like the best bet in the west this year. Illinois showed it is much weaker this fall b succumbing to ‘Colgate, Notre Dambe found the Haskell Indians easy pick- ings. Harper's crew looks mighty good this year, even better than last, and is going to make trouble for everybody it meets, Nebraska in- cluded. The “Big Three” of the east barely u?held their colors by the narrowest of margins Saturday. Princeton, with the aid of a sub’' who made a phenom- enal, and probably lucky, goal kick of forty-five yards, only beat Tufts 3 to 0..

ATHLETICS SPRING ON THE NONPAREILS Hold Heavy Champs Down to Fourteen Points in Good Gridiron Game. BATTLE AT LUXUS PARK By FRANK QUIGLEY. 2 Yesterday afternoon down at Luxus park, before a large gathering of foot ball devotees, the Solomons were treated to a nonpalatable surprise when tle - underestimated Athletics held the heavy Nonpareils down to 14 points. The Athletics fought gamely throughout the contest, and the fans were apparently well pleased with the game. The Nonpareils hoisted the oval to the Athletics. and after a few downs it was apparent that an excellent bat- tle would be staged, The Nonpareils scored in the first quarter. They regained the leather on a fumble by the opposition and by straight, ordinary foot ball pushed the pigskin across. _Kieny plunged over. for the “initial touchdown and also kicked goal. In ‘the second and third quarters, the Athletics played the champs to a standstill. The Nonpareils were on the offensive most of the time and they képt the pigskin in the Athletics’ territory, but were unable to register a point.’ ; uring the final quarter the champs- oozer over another touchdown when, after ‘a bitter fight to reach striking distance, Phillip Tracey placed the leather over tl\e line and Kieny kicked goal. Wide ciid runs, tricks and dif- ferent fake fbrmations were utilized quite: frequently’ by the Nonpareils, and although they gained plenty of ground by these methods, the Ath- letics seemed to produce the impene- trable stuff in the pinches, The Nonpareails at present are gameless for next Sunday, but on the following Sunday they will play\the All-Stars. ummary : Nonparells.

The triumph re-establishes Chicago as a strong candidate for the Western conference honors, although critics agree that Minnesota still has the edge. The Maroons weré 50 per cent improved over a week ago. I The defeat of Indiana means its elimination as a possible contender for the "Big Nine championship. The game was the only orie on Saturday’s schedule having any bearing on the conference title, The defeat of Illinois at the hands of Colgate was a shock to supporters of the Illini, Illinois must Krenare to face next Saturday a high-powered eleven in Ohio State, which buried Oberlin un- der a 128 to 0 score vesterday. Minnesota, showing stead improve- ment, rolled up another big score yes- terday, ,trouncing North Dakota, 47 to 7. Captain Baston signalized his return to the game by brilliantly exe-~ cuting forward passes for long gains. Wisconsin’s* victory over South Da- kota revealed that the Badgers are | strong cantenders for the Big Nine { honors. The leaders outside the conference, Notre Dame and Michigan, came through ‘their games with compara- tive ease the victors. Bellevue Team Faces Hard Week of Practice The hardest week's work of the sea- son for the Bellevue foot ball squad begins this afternoon. Bellevue stu- dents are of the opinion that the 3-to- 0 victory over Cotner should have been larger by at lcast twelve points, and that only fumbling kept the In- dians from scoring at least twice more than they did: Benjamin has been working the boys hard to eliminate this feature. North Loup Still Champion. North Loup, Neb. Oct. 16.—(8pecial.)— North Loup High school defeated Greeley 39 to 0. North Loup was faster and. worked the forward pass to advantage, North Loup has won three games for a total of seventy- one points, without being scorsd against this season.

BACK FROM SEEING COHIEF Washington, Oct. 15.—Elizeo Arre- dondo, i nate, told-here today for the first time of his recent visit to M confer with General Cfrranza, The ambassador is eonvinced that the ex- changes of views which took place will contribute materidlly toward bringing about a better understanding between the two governments. Conditions in Mexico show syeady improvement, Mr. Arredondo said, de- spite the destructive effects of the revolution. Economic, military and civilu;f{clorms are being inaugurated as rapidly as possible, he said, adding that published reports of suffering among the natives because of hunger were greatly exaggerated, the govern- ment having received complaints on that score only from localities where bandits were operating, confiscating foodstuffs and other property. Activities of Legalistas, The ambassador said there was no question but that a “legalista” move- meat had been started to overthrow his government. | ., Mr. Arredondo described the legal- ista movement as another attempt on ithe part of anti-Carranza interests to | injure President Wilson's prospects for re-election. “They believe that if Mr. Hughes is elected,” the ambassador said, “they will have another up&nrtunity to pre« sent their cgse to"the United States and seek assistance for it from the American people.” No Reflection on G. O. P. Mr. Arredondo said that in making that statement he did not intend to reflect upoh the republican party or its policy tqward Mexico in any way, expressing confidence that if the party were brought into power by the No- | vember election it would be just in its dealings with the Carranza govern- ment. Lincoln Looms Up As Dangerous Among WEEK’S RESULTS. Central High, 7; Council Bluffs, 0. South High, 14; Blair, 7. Norfolk, 27; Commerce High, 0. Beatrice, 23, York, 0. Lincoln, 26; Grand Island, 0. \ North Platte, 13; Curtis Aggies, 12. ¢ peidiod All but one of the High\game con- ference teams donned the \moleskins in regular battle Friday. The circle of” igames reached the sustained strength of the Lincoln team. Coach Reese’s eleven can now be considered as dan- gerous competitors for the title, per- haps on a par.with Beatrice. The victory of the Capital City over Grand Island in such overwhelm- Tng terms as 26 to 0 indicates that Central and Beatrice High schools will have their hardest battles when they meet the Lincoln team. It is possible that these games will prove the deciding games in the champion- ship race. At least they will deter- mine Central's standing. Beatrice will first be met by the ?ocal eleven and if defeat results there will be still one more chance for the local lads against Lincoln the week follow- ing. Beatrice still retains the edge in the conference, according to the dope. ‘ North Platte Baffles. North Platte apparently { baifling if not a poor showing against the Curtis Aggies, a team that has already been defecated by a " minor eleven. cates that the western town is weak.
