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 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 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.

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. 1 d-H a 1 (i Coachi reported that Drake is quoted as saying succeed Nebraska on the Dame schedule and thai Creighton will also be given a BREAK NOT DOINGS OF KNUTE ROCKNE Notre Coach Quoted in Omaha Paper as Saying He Did Not Cause Cancellation of Game.

Frundell was with Crete in 1922 when the Crete team played Sutton for the champion-1 ship.

Clayton Wolfe of Clay Center is another promising forward candidate. Wolfe has been the mainspring of the Clay Center team for the past three seasons.

Dec. under the burden of trying, to live up to a reputation and disillusioned by the life of a great public hero, a worn and haunted Red lirange was here today trying to keep going on his dash for a fortune.

As Jack Dempsey and Babe Ruth had learned before him. Grange is beginning to know that the penalty of Ciime is down" when a star deliver and that the public expects much of a hero when he is being paid for it. Veteran football trainers, ing Grange try to play eight games in seventeen days and attempt a schedule of thirty-one games in little more than two months, predicted that it be done and It begins to appear that It cannot be done. The strain of travel, the annoyance from a pestering public and the burden of his fame have worn Grange down so much that he was unable to do a thing in Boston yesterday and he was forced to listen to the nrst chorus of raxtberrles from disappointed customers. Reports were heard here today that the former Illinois star was so fed up with the dash for the dollar that he was about ready to be satis fled with what he had.

Silent Owls. Have you ever noticed that yon cannot hear the wing heats of an owl? Wild ducks can be heard as far as a mile away as the wind whlstle.s thru -4heir hard-feathered wings.

But the owl. no matter how close he flies to you, cannot be heard. It is because his wings are covered with fine down that silences them perfectly, thus giving no warning to his game. Mechanical Foxes. Fox hunting having perished in this country, an enterprising firm has patented a mile-long endless belt to which synthetic foxes and hares are attached.

It Is proposed to course the Imitation animals with hounds. Since the course is circular, the wise hound will sit down and scratch fleas until the game comes round to him. (Copyright, 192a.)

Not that the quality has ever been anything but the highest.

The constant patronage of such a vast army of smokers proves that. But when a tobacco cron is unusually as that now being used in White is only natural that it should add an extra sweetness of taste, a greater mellowness, an additional fragrance. i But Nature, alone, could not give you this extra value that all the Judges of good cigars are so quick to qpte in White Owls, i Were it not for 1 the millions of loyal White Owl friends, i it would be impos- i sible to use this super-fine tobacco i and still maintain the low price of 2 for 15 cents. Small wonder, then, that so many men who can afford to pay much more, stnoke White Owls.They judge them by quality alone. They know that the low price of WTiite Owls is due solely to the unheard of popularity that makes necessary the astounding production of a million a day.
