GERRISH HIGH INDIVIDUAL New York, Oct. 25.—With the foot ball season reaching the half way mark team scores and individual scores are mounting up rapidly, the totals for five and six games reach- ing large proportions in some cases.

(Special.)—The crippled Ames eleven pulled away from Columbia in good bodily shape, considering the toughness of the 0-to- 0 game. Packer was thrown out of the game for a few minutes, but he finished the game, mostly because it was a case of have-to. With the game so stubbornly fought, and a weakness on the end of the line where Right End Jones should have been, the coaches simply could not pull Packer out. The big team-mate of Jones, who was hurt in the Kansas game, was not badly damaged, for it was announced that he will be ready to go back on the first string for the game with the Cornhuskers November 4. The team gets a good long rest of a couple of weeks before taking on the Cornhuskers” The Cyclones have this big advantage over the Cornhusk- ers. The Nebraskans have a heavy schedule, which gives them a big game this week, when Ames will be resting. The victory of the Cornhuskers at Portland over the Oregon farmers caused the "‘Ames’ followers to look with more concern on the battle at Lincoln in two weeks.

That so responsible a body of citizens and business men is behind the gen- eral movement to provide high-class music for the public in Omaha is of immense assistance to the cause of the art in general, and this fact is fully appreciated bv those who are de- voted to music in any way. Other numbers in the course are being eagerly awaited. P Although “Il Trovatore” is one of the best known and most popular of all grand operas, and unquestionabl. one of the greatest of all of the Ital- ian school, it has not been presented in Omaha for several years, and never at of course, is the big attraction. The pro- hibitionists are coming to Omaha with a strong lineup and are confi- dent of scoring a victory. The Blue and White warriors, However, are just as confident of success.. At all events, the fray should be one to make the foot ball fan’s blood tingle.

Cornhuskers Pay Visit to Glacier National Park Great Falls, Mont., Oct. 25.—(Spe- cial Telggram.)—With a four-hour stop at Glacier National park, the N:- braska foot ball special Tuesday made its last sightseeing halt on its home- ward journey. The entire party saw a part of the park. This morning some of the party went boat riding on Lake| McDonald, while others went tramp- ing, and still others fished. The team had a five-mile signal practice, running through their plays all the way to the lake and back. Another stop was made at the eastern en- trance to the park and the Glacier hotel was visited. ‘Wedncsday stops will be made at Billings and Sheridan, where the team will work out.

In the first scene of Act II, while relating to Manrico the dramatic story of her mother’s death, at the stake, and how in frenzy she had thrown her own babe into the flames, she presented the music with a dramatic fire and histrionic realism that fairly swept the audi- ence off its feet. In the entire act she was all that could be desired and was called and recalled before the curtain as many as eight or nine times. Others in the Cast. Marie Rappold as Leonora sang the part with sincerity and great beauty of tone. Her voice is unus- ually sweet, and of great power, and was displayed effectively. Morgan Kingston made an ac- ceptable “Manrico.” He is possessor of a rarely beautiful voice, essentially tenor, yet of immense power and richness of quality. Although not as yet a great actor, he sang the many taxing numbers which fell to the part of the troubadour with splen- did effect, and was cordially re- ceived. Giovanni Polese was heard to ex- cellent advantage as the Count di Luna, by his singing and acting, mak- ing much out of a rather ungrateful part. Leon Rothier, as Fernando, de- served especial mention. He sang the opening aria with such life and vocal ability as to win him a curtain call all his own, and his part in the various ensembles was highly satis- factory. The other parts were also well presented. Chorus’ Work is Great. Of the concerted numbers, of course, the great prison scene stands out pre-eminent. Here the voices of Leonora and Manrice were most artistically contrasted and blended, yet another effective contrast to this intense scene, In the “Anvil Chorus” in act two the chorus did some ex- cellent work. The. dramatic intensity of the last act, with its exquisite duet for Man- rico and Azucena, first with its weight of woe, and then with the beauty of | the well known “Back to Our Moun- | tains,” to later develop into the trio with Leonora, a series of wonderful beauty and exquisite pathos was done with such artistry as to develop its every charm and hold its listeners in enraptured suspense to the end. Orchestra Wins Friends. The otchestra, itself a most artistic | body, upheld its high standard of per- formance established last night, and | came into its own with the three in- terpolated solos, “Overture from “Barcarollc’ | lfrom “Tales of Hoffman,” Offenhnch,l,__,_ ______ l Sport Calendar Today Golf—Opening of annual fall- tournament of County club of Atlantle City, Boxing—Mickey Sheridan vs, Len Row- lands, 12 rounds, at St. Louls.

Maestro Campanini, as always, domi- nated the situation and was most gracious in his acknowledgment of re- peated applause. Curtain calls were numerous after each act, and there was hardy a single number of the entire opera that did not win its round of steady hearty applause from an appreciative audience. Baggageman Takes His Tour. One of the most astonishing effects of the evening was afforded by the ambitious baggageman, who furnished a trunk obligato for the impressive prison scene. The exquisite music of this most interesting part of the opera was listened to by those on the north side of the Auditorium with such pleasurable interest as was possible under the circumstances of being com- pelled to endure the rumble and bumping of heavy trunks undergoing transfer to the wagons. This discon- certing circumstance annoyed singers, conductor and all, but it is hoped Maestro Campanini will upderstand it is not an Omaha practice to thus dis- turb musical effects so impressive as those interfered with by the energetic baggageman last night. South High to Play Nebraska City on Friday Coach Patton’s South High foot ball team will go' to Nebraska .City Friday morning to play one of its hardest games the same afternoon with the school team of that town. For three years past the local teams have won over Nebraska City teams in both foot ball and basket ball, A rivalry as ancient as the schools themselves has existeds Patton has developed a powerful offense in shifting Dworak from | fullback to halfback. For three years this worthy Fluggcd the line and did admirably. In shifting Nestor, re- cruited quarter of last year, from the general's position to Dworak's old place he has added speed where weight once existed. Emigh, at the other half, has been giving a good account of himself, while Etter, at full, a new man, is considered a {ind, Corr, star end, and Rugie, big tackle, are showing up well in scrim- mage. There is a chance that O'Con- nor, freshman tackle, will be up in his studies and back on the line again before the game Friday. O’Connor is proving himself one of the best tackles in the history of the school. He has three years ahead of him. Huskers May Face Eastern Champs Chicago, Oct. 25.—A leading west- ern foot ball eleven will be invited to compete in a post season game against one of the eastern colleges this year, according to advices re- ceived today from Walter E.

WHAT HAPPENED TO'BETTY THE HORSE FROM THE WARNER ANSWERS SLUR OF HOWARD Republican Candidate Resents, Attempt to Cast Suspicion Upon His Loyalty. KENNEDY ALSO SPEAKS Fremont, Neb., Oct. 25.—(Special.) —To an almost affectionate audience of old friends, both republican and democratic, who gathered at the head- quarters of the Hughes-Fairbanks club here last night, Willidm P. War- ner, republican candidate for congress from the Third district, and John L.| Kennedy, republican candidate for United States senator, delivered the last of their speeches in the joint campaign of the Third district, which has been going on for the last ten days in spite of rain, snow and muddy roads. The republican headquarters were gayly decorated in bunting of stars and stripes and a profusion of flags. The Fremont 'band played. Standing out in relief against a back- ground of Old Glory Mr. Warner, amid cheers which almost drowned out his words, shamed the Columbus Telegram and its democratic editor, Edgar Howard, for seeking to cast a suspicion as to his loyalty to the United States upon him because his brother happened to be a resident of Canadaand a_member of the Canadian army. Many citizens of German extraction were present and assured Mr. Warner publicly of their indignation that an attempt should be made to influence their vote by such political claptrap, It was plain to see that Mr. Warner was among friends and his earnest and unaffected manner as he set forth his claims to the election as congressman drew much favorable comment, C. E. Abbott Presides. : C. E. Abbott, city attorney of Fre- mont, acted as chairman of the meet- ing, and following Mr. Warner's speech he introduced John L. Ken- nedy, who for more than an hour and a half stirred his audience with his patriotic utterances, his speech being interspersed with humorous bits which caused frequent ripples of merriment to run over the crowd. The crowd was for Kennedy from the start and at times the applause and cheering became a positive uproar, The crowd was a mixture of all na- tionalities and both republican and democratic, and all gathered about Mr, Kennedy after he had finished and expressed their pleasure at hear- ing him so fairly discuss the ques- tions before the voters, and so care- ful of the requirements of strict neu- trality, discuss the problems growing out of the world war. Numerous sincere assurances of support were given to Mr. Kennedy. The meeting was under the aus- pices of the Hughes-Fairbanks club and the last in which Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Warner will hold together this campaign. Mr. Kennedy will return to Omaha today to begin his campaign there and Mr, Warner will continue his campaign here in the Third district. Meeting at Schuyler, This morning a meeting was held at Schuyler in the Bohemian hall. George W. Wertz presided. In the audience was Otto Zuelow, who was Mr. Warner's rival in the primary campaign, and he expressed himself very generously in support of Mr, Warner. Here Mr, Kennedy met his young friend, W. B.

W, Devoe, republican candidate for attorney general; H. P, Shumway, republican candidate for lieutenant governor, and other prom- inent republicans were present and made addresses. Devoe's speech made a great hit and his reference to Hughes, Kenedy and W;rner was loudly applauded.
