NOTRE DAME IS EASIER Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 9.—(Speci S £ 5 2 19.—(Special | 5 New Year's day. The entire| Felegram.) — Announcement was | varsity coaching staff and a number made this morning by Dr. E. J. Stew- | of students will accompany the art, head coach of the University of Nebraska, that Syracuse university would play the Huskers next Thanks- giving day in Lincoln. \ Syracuse university has tendered Nebraska a five-year contract, which would bring the strong eastern team to Lincoln for five consecutive years for a turkey day battle. Syracuse is one of the leaders in eastern foot ball and the Nebraska management feels that the intersectional battle is one which would appeal strongly to all lovers of foot ball. The Husker management has not acted upon the suggestion of the five- year contract, although negotiations have been completed for the game ! next Thanksgiving day. An October date between Nebraska ' and Notre Dame on Nebraska field has already been decided upon. Jess Harper's eleven is very popular in Nebraska and there is no disposition on the part of Nebraska to overlook this game. : With Kansas, Missouri and Iowa ! games already 'booked, the Huskers | will face the stiffest schedule in their history. One or two more games are vet to be arranged before the foot ball schedule is complete. Clarence Rowland .

He knocked Welling down twice. The fight had progressed about one minute when the Milwaukee boy ,crossed his right to Welling’s jaw, sending him to the canvas. Welling slowly regained his feet, only to go with another well placed right to the face. The bell came after Welling had gone into a clinch. From that point onward the fight developed into a display of boxing and punching. Referee Stout repeatedly ~warned Welling against rough tactics. Persistence is the Cardinal Virtue in Advertising.
