STIEHM WAOTSJMR TITLE Nebraska Coach Will Challenge Clos est Rival to Post-Season Game. LOOKS LIKE AGGIES AT FINISH Ames Appears to lie BtroiiBest Other Team In Valley and Probably Will Hare to Meet CornUnsU-ers for Championship.

UY JAMBS B. LAWRENCE. LINCOLN, Oct There will be no question oa to who Is champion of the.MIssourl valley- In foot ball It Coach Bwald O. Stlehm of tho University of Nebraska his his way. Provided the Cornhuskers domain In the running until tho close of the season, which now seems extremely likely, then Stlehm will issue a challenge to the closest rival for a post-season game to determine the championship.

Tho Nebraska mentor la determined onca nnd for all to put an end to the quibbling which Dos Moines papers carried on last fall at tho close of tho season on behalf of Ames. Indication? now point that Nebraska will challengo tho winner of the Ames-Drake game, tho post-season contest to be played either In Lincoln or In the Drake stadium nt Dcs Moines. It Is pointed out that such a game would attract thousands and help to Insure the finances of the colleges. Tho question Is pushed to the front by the approach of the Missouri game, which marks Nebraska's fltst Missouri Valley conference opponent, although Ames saw to It that the Tigers' ambition was promptly nipped In the bud. Nebraska must slldo' carefully through the Missouri and Kansas games In order to have a shot at the winning team In the Amcs-Drako contest.

Peculiar Schedule. Owing to the Incomplete schedule ot the Missouri valley colleges, each year tho question of the title to premier honors In foot ball In the valley is alwayi the matter ot dispute. Last season, when the Cornhuskers had one of the beet teams that ever graced a foot ball field at Nebraska, the Aggies claimed that be. cause Ames had played a tie game early In the season with tho Cornhuskers they were entitled to equal rank In tho championship award with the Cornhuskers. Most sporting editors, paid but little attention to tho claims and Nebraska wna generally recognized as champion of the valley.

Nebraska asked Ames to baso the championship on comparative scores, but the Iowa authorities refused. Had the title rested on the comparative scores of tho two teams, the Cornhuskers would havo won easily. Nebraska managed to pile up an enor mous score against Missouri, while but a week previous to the Netiraska-uilssourl game Ames had a terrible fight to win from the Tigers. Would Fight It Out. Stlehm will listen to no such plans this year.

The teams that lead In tho Missouri valley, If they have not already met on the gridiron, will be matched for a post-season game. If 8tlehnj has anything to do with It, In which the title Is at stake. Until the outcome ot the Missouri and Kansas games, the Nebraska, coach can take no steps towards solving tho pres ent tangle In the Missouri Valley con ference. Unless Nebraska Is successful In both of these games. It Is beyond Stlehm's province to attempt to Interfere.

The Nebraska Bquad should enter the Missouri game presenting the strongest front that It has presented this season. Except for unforeseen accident, the hospital list will be reduced to the minimum by the time of the game, and for the first time this season the coach will be able to present his regular lineup at the outset of the game. Stlehm does not dare to let up for a single minute In that Kansas or Missouri game. It's up to Jumbo to beat the Ames score against Mlssourllot 23 to 0 and It's up to blm to smash the Drake score of 6 to 0 against Kansas. Then may It be truly said that Nebraska la champion ot the valley.

The last week has witnessed constant shifts In the lineup. Stlehm lias paid particular attention to shitting his linemen In hopes of covering up the big hole In the center of the line. Mastln has been taken In from end and worked out a( guard and, while the big fellow has plenty of beef and epeed to make an Ideal guard, he Is such a strong defensive end that Coach Stlehm is sooie-what reluctant to take him oft the end, where he has been playing a dashing game. New men have repeatedly been puv In, both In the backfleld and the line, but It la not expected that there will be any severe shakeups when the next game Is called. Anyone who thinks that Nebraska has a weakling of a team because of the defeat at Minnesota has "another think coming, however.

The Nebraska squad haa been playing remarkably good ball during the last three days. By one or two more games, Nebraska will have that old fighting machine, ot which tho Cornhuskers have alwaya been so proud, and will have developed the team work, which has been sadly missing In the earlier games. Leave Next Thursday. The varsity squad leaves Thursday over the Burlington for Columbia, where the day preceding the game will be cpent In light practice. Eighteen play-or will be taken along on the trip, In cluding pretty much the same squad which was taken to Minneapolis.

The Cornhuskers will havo an exceedingly busy week up until leaving for Columbia. The first part of tho week will see tho return of Bevcral of the alumni, as was the caso just beforo tho Minnesota game, to assist In the training of the squad. The work will be entirely secret: In fact, Stlehm has adopted practice behind closed doors with a vim. A1-, ready Nebraska haa had more secret: practices than any time within the last' five years. Stlehm and hlo assistants! will put In the first threo nights of nextl week with long, hard scrimmage work, wlndlner ud Thursday afternoon wlth.i signal practice before taking the train) for Columbia.

The success or failure of tho entire season rests on the two games, for It means a Missouri Valloy championship. Should Nebraska win against Missouri i and then dupllcato the victory at Un-. coin, when tho Jayhawkera Invade tho homo, of the Cornhuskers, It will leavo Stlehm free to put Into operation his) plan" to challenge tho leading rival for valley honors. That is why all of the Cornhuskers will anxiously await the outcome of the battle with the Tigers. Nebraska Alumni to Meet Tuesday Omaha alumni of the University of Nebraska are working seriously In the efforts to better athletic conditions at their alma mater, and thoy expect to, determine, In the University club rooms Tuesday evening, a policy which they shall pursuo In regard to Cornhusker athletics.

Thoy wish to have better success with foot ball, better conditions governing the other sports, and a new representative tn the Missouri. Valley conference, from which body the Cornhuskers do not now recelvo proper treatment, Bay local alumni. The following announcement ot the meeting for Tuesday evening has been sent out by Amos Thomas, secretary of. the Omaha Nebraska alumni: "Back In the Iron age wo beat Minnesota. Why don't wo repeat?

"Think It over and meet with tho other Nebraska alumni at the University club at 7:45 Tuesday evening, October 29, and talk over the situation.
