WHAT'S THE MATTER® JERRY- YOU LoOK I0WA CRIPPLED BY GAME AT AMES Hunzelman Has Broken Bone in Ankle and Two Other Regulars Are Hurt, LINING UP FOR NEBRASKA Iowa City, Ia., Nov. 21.—(Special.) —State championships come high, in the «stimation of coaches and fans at Towa, for in spite of the fact that the school is jubilant over the return of premier honors to the state university, yet the satisfaction of walloping Ames was attained only at the ex- pense of losing one regular altogether and seriously injuring two others. Hunzelman is out of the game for the rest of’this year with a broken bone in his ankle. He is in the hos- pital, but may be able to get out by Saturday in some fashion so that he can sit on the side lines and see the annual Nebraska-Iowa clash. Davis, the Towa right halfback and star drop- kicker, failed to report for practice yesterday afternoon because of a wrenched ankle which is giving him trouble. Trainer Watson, however, says that he will be able to go against the Cornhuskers Saturday. The other injury is to Scott, fullback. Scott was hit in the head in the Ames game and had to be dragged off the field. He was momentarily “off” and believed he was fighting against the Cornhusk- ers. The experience of being knocked crazy weakened him for a day or two, but he will be back in shape when the whistle blows to start ‘the final game of the season. Fosdick Will Play. Fosdick will probably start agaimst Nebraska in place of Hunzelman and as he is an old letter man from last vear he will hold up the place in first- class fashion, as he did against the Cyclones. _Towa supporters expect much from Captain Laun in his final game of the year. Laun played a wonderful punt- ing game against Ames, booting the | ball in any direction he wished with great accuracy. The pigskin was al- ways out of reach of the man back to return. the kick and on numerous occasions the ball rolled outside for a boot of fifty-five or sixty yards, so that it was impossible to return it. Other Changes in Line. Some changes have been made in the Iowa line by Coach Jones prelimi- nary to the Nebraska game and these may still be standing the'last of the week. Triplett, who played at end all season until the Ames game, when he was_shifted to tackle, has been moved in one more notch and is now at left guard in place of Kelly, Mc- Kee, whom Triplett replaced at tackle, has his old job back and Reed is camped securely at the left wing, Triplett is a big man and may be found to be an admirable man in guard position, where the agility that he developed as an end may come in handy at any time. Preparations are being made to play the homecoming game this year be- fore the largest crowd that ever saw a foot ball game in the state and it is probable that even the attendance record of abou 13,000 at the Ames- lowa game may be beaten. Already more than 10,000 seats have been re- served, but there is still room for more and good seats to accommodate everyone. Proposes Tax On - Grand Opera and Maji[ Base Ball Chicago, Nov. 21.—-Grand opera will be taxed 20 per cent of its gross income and a percentage tax also will be levied against all other amuse- ments, excepting motion picture theaters, if proposals of Eugene Block, an_alderman, are adopted. Mr. Block previously had urged that a 10 per cent tax be levied against the receipts of the two major league base ball clubs of the city. The steps are necessary, he urged, to_increase the city’s revenue to meet increased demands upon its pocketbook. St. Louis Team in Lead in Doubles St. Louis, Nov. 21.—Otto Dettweiler and J. Ruth of St. Louis took the lead in the doubles in the Middle West Bowling tournament this afternoon, when they made a score of 1,220. The second highest score was made by Guy Sellers and H. Stil€s of Des Moines, who made 1,140. Tired, Aching Muscles Relieved. Sloan's ' Liniment lightly applied, a little quiet, and your soreness disappears like maglc. Get a 26c bottle today.

It was said that he may be able to play in the Yale- Harvard game. If he does the var- sity will be greatly strengthened. Sheldon is one of several Yale “crip- les” who have appeared on the field or service in the past several days. Five Hundred Seats For Notre Dame Fray To Be Sold in Omaha Five hundred seats for the Nebras- ka-Notre Dame foot ball game at Lincoln Thanksgiving day will be placed on sale in Omaha this week Vincent C. Haskell, secretary of the Omaha alumni of the state univer- sity, has completed arrangements with Athletic Director Guy Reed, where- by Omaha will get specially reserved seats on both sides of the field. There will be 300 seats on the south side, directly under the press stand in the center of the field, and 200 seats on the north side. A s Heretofore only the highest-priced seats have been sent to Omaha, but this time tickets selling at all prices will be on sale in Omaha. Hascall ex- pects to receive the tickets some time today, and_he will place them on sale at Beaton Drug Co. immediately upon their arrival. Tt is expected Omaha will send a record-breaking crowd to the Notre Dame game. A special train will run over the Burlington at the usual time. Loss of Thanksgiying dinner or the defeat of the Cornhuskers at the hands of Kansas is not expected to discourage local gridiron fans from attending ' the big turkey day game, and Hascall advices those who in- tend to buy their tickets early. Stock Yards Would Boost Price of Corn (From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, Nov. 21.—(Special.)—In an endeavor to secure the privilege of raising the price on corn furnished to shippers for feeding purposes, Su- perintendent E. Buckingham of the Union Stock ' Yards company of Omaha and Frank Ransom, attorney for the company, called on the State Railway commission today. After the conference Mr. Bucking- ham stated that on account of the rise in corn prices, it was impossible to furnish it any more for $1 per bushel, the price charged in the past, and the yards were asking for the privilege of charging $1.50, “We have had to pay as high as $1.02 per bushel in some instances for the corn we are compelled to furnish the feeders for $1,” said the stock yards’ superintend- ent, “and it has for some time ran up along 98 cents and thereabout.” The matter will be taken under ad- visement by the commission and re- ported on later on. THE BEE: OMAHA, WEDNESDAY, Copyright, 1916. International News Servica BY 4GOLLY-" ™M AFRAVD TOKO HOME STEWART SHIFTS | Cornhusker Coach Trying New Combinations to Compete With Hawkeyes. | KEEPS BEHIND SHUT GATES Lincoln, Nov. 21. — (Special.) — Coach Stewart of the Huskers made another shift last night in the hope of developing a more powerful of- fense for the Iowa game next Satur- day afternoon at lowa City. Stewart put Cook and Caley at halfs, and transferred Tim Morris, the old North Platte star, from a substi- tute position on the line to fullback. Dobson or Rhodes will complete the backfield quartet. Cook and Caley are the two fastest men on the var- sity squad, and have shown the most consistent ability to advance the ball. Heretofore Dr. Stewart has been un- able to use only one of them in his lineup, keeping the other in reserve on the side-lines. With this added strength, Stewart is hopeful that his scoring machine will lug a more po- tent punch. formations, which were brought back by Vic Halligan, the old Husker star, who saw the Hawkeyes lick Ames last Saturday. Halligan verified the earlier reports which Stewart brought in of the strength of the Iowa eleven, and said Nebraska would face the best machine at Iowa City developed in recent years. The Huskers had good luck in solving the Iowa forma- tions, however, and even the power- ful freshmen eleven could make no progress against the stubborn de- fense put up by the line. Under the new arrangement, Jim- my Gardiner, the old Omaha star, will go back to end, and Gorey will resume his old position at tackle, where he is without a rival in the Missouri valley. With “Ted” Riddell, Cook and Gardiner on the receiving end, the forward passes hurled by Caley should be more successful than | those attempted by the Husker team in the Kansas game, Practically sure that Moser will not be in shape to play against the Hawkeyes, Stewart will also have to devote his attention to drilling Cam- eron for the pivot position. Camer- on is an experienced center, and the loss of Moser will not materially weaken the Husker lineup with Corey and Shaw back at their old position at tackles. Ted Riddell's bum hoof was not hurt in the Kansas game, and he should be in better physical condition than any time during the season. Stewart has dircted that all of the \firactlc: during the coming week be eld behind closed doors.

(From a Staff Correspondent.) Lincoln, Nov. 21.—(Special.)—The brotherhood of railway trainmen has appealed to the supreme court from a judgment secured in the Douglas county district court, wherein John Rane secured a verdict against the organization for $2,015 on a suit for $1,350 and interest, alleged to be due him on a policy held in the associa- tion as insurance against‘ permanent disability. J It was alleged by the plaintiff in | the former trial that after being a member of the organization for nearly seventeen years he had been dis- charged from the employ of the rail- road company for which he was work- ing the capacity of switchman be- cause of color blindness. It is alleged in the complaint that the brotherhood organization policy paid so much for loss of sight, which he alleges is a permanent disability. Chester High Defeated.

This action was taken n1al meeting late last night. The convention rejected two of the most impprtant proposals of the rg. vised constitution presented for adoption. One was the clause which would have kept out of the legislative affairs of the union a man who could not prove he was an amateur in every sense of the word. the proposed regulation which would | have denied women swimmers the right to register with the union. Virtually all the other features of the new code were adopted. These include the new definition of an ama- teur and the acts of debarment which would bar every athlete who in any way infringes the prescribed regula- tions. The women swimmers' question was settled after a hard fight in which | the delegates of the Metropolitan, the Southern and the Pacific-Northwest associations, the latter by proxy, were opposed to the delegates of the Middle Atlantic, New England, Cen- tral and Hawaiian associations. The next annual convention will be at ‘St. Louis.

Notwithstanding the shade better showing of the Army during the season and the fact that the Navy must use many new men against the West Point back field of veter- ans, there is a growing confidence here that|the sailors will be victorious this year. It is believed the Navy lineup will be much the same as that which started the game against Villa Nova last Saturday. The squad will leayve Annapolis Thursday. About 1,300 midshipmen will make the trip to New York to root for their comrades.
