The most successful football seaaoft In the athletio annals of the University of Nebraska that of 1816 dumped harvest of dollars Into the athletio treasury and the announcement has been made by Guy E. Reed, manager ejj athletics at the Cornhusker instltu tlon, that the athletio authorities af a planning to make a start on the creaj tlon of a permanent field for staging football and other inter-collegtats sports. Manager Reed figure on a net football surplus of between 28,000 anct $10,000 when a complete check of act counts Is finished. The figures for tha Iowa game, given out last week, were a pleasant aurprls for the Nebraska management. Inasmuch as the crowd was a disappointment The total rc celpta for the game were $6,952.

The only game yet to hear from la Kansas. Manager Reed has a letter from Manager Hamilton of Kansas last week saying that the faculty committee had not audited his accounts ye but as soon as the check waa com. pleted he would send a draft to cover Nebraska's share of a $15,000 "gate." The Kansas crowd was the largest in tho history of athletic at Lawrence and Nebraska's slice of the receipts will be heavy, Reed expects the total receipts for the season to surpaos surplus will give the Nebraska management an opportunity to carry ut some of Its long cherished plans of erecting concrete stands on the Nes braska field. One of the most numerous complaints made by supporters of athletics st the Cornhusker Institution Is the lack of choice seats for football games. Reed says.

It Is the present pla to erect the concrete stands, section by section, until all of the grand stand and bleachers are of permanent material, i Sentiment Favors Rutherford. The special committee appointed bj the athletio board to report on the selection of a new coach to succeed Jumbo Stlehm, has held several meeting during the week, but has succeeded In keeping the results of Its Investigations pretty much of a secret.

The board will still hav its hands tied in the matter of offering a large salary to the director of athletics. Rutherford Is receiving numerous offers to coach elsewhere.

Kramer entered the game when he waa only 17, and he was amateur champion of America for two years before he turned professional.

He has made four trips to Europe, and on two occasions was presented by the president of France with a medal omblematlo of the world's cycle Last year Kramer won every race In which he engaged on the other side of the pond, while in 1918 he captured the world's cycling title at the Velodrome D'HIver in Paris.
