CORNHUSKERSARE HUNTIHC BIG GAME Want to Book Contest for Kext Year to Take Place of Annual Kotre Dame-Nebraska Classic. The University of Nebraska athletic department is making a country-wide effort to get a big intersectional football game to take the place of the Notre Dame-Nebraska game a« the annual classic on the gridiron here next year. Wires have been sent out by Herbert Gish acting athletic director, to some of the leading institutions of the country in an effort to land a contest. One of the nearby schools whicn the athletic department had hoped to land was Minnesota for a game at Lincoln but the Gophers have a heavv schedule and could not arrange it. The main trouble ha.s been to get some of the big com^ to Nebraska this year, but this is what is wanted at Nebraska. With the Thanksglvtng game with Washington at Seattle, the Hjiskers have no big game outside the Missouri valley. The athletic department is ing to take on any school in the .4 country and does not cafe how big a reputation it has In grid circle.s. DuTtmouth, Yale, Harvard. Princeton, Pittsburgh, f*enu State, 1 enn- gyivania, or ino.At any school ol national reputation is welcome pro vidlng they will come to Nebraska this year. Wire Many Schools. ,\ large number of schools have been ft*lt out l»y the athletic department but no favi'rable response.^ had been received Thursday fore^ noon, according to Herbert Gish, i On account of Notre Dame's break-, ing so late with the Huskers it is a| little difiicult to hook up vvlih U| team now on account of so many ; schedules being clo:-'d. '1 he ath-, letlc department, however, expect.- to havN a big Interscctionul, game on the Hidiedule next year if it is IHJSSlble to get it. The valh y schedule next year with the elass ot teams that are now in the valley will furnl.^h some of the most interesting contests that the Nebra.ska fans have seen for years. There is rot a team on the schedule from the. valley that will not give Nebraska a hanl tight. The valley oattles are getting to be real baltlct,.

From unofficial sources it Is rumored that the reason back of the cessation of football between the two schools lies in the retusal of Nebraska to extend tlie contract' which expires in 1926 and give in the Morning Dume a game In 1927.
