gjpQ'RTS AND ATHLETICS

NEBRASKA DOE TO OPSET DOPE ADQOT GfllBIHOH : Nebraska promises to fee 'considerera football world this year. V u Nebraska. like Michigan, Isnt 1b the western fohference. It's looked upon as outside the fold, yet "Nebraska each year turns out elevens under the brilliant coaching of Ewald 0. Stlebm that rank among the very beat in the entire country. Graduations robbed the Comhuskera of some of the brightest stars of its great 1914 team, but enough good men are left to make it a certainty that the team of 1915 will be largely one of veterans. And the best part of the Nebraska outlook is that about one dozen newcomers in the candidate ranks this year who are showing up in wonderful style, make it certain that Nebraska will have a secondary defense almost as powerful as its reg ular varsity. June Shatter Line. - The -Nebraska line was pretty well shattered by the June bombardment, but just about the best backfleld material the Cornhuskers had last year is back in moleskins and it's always much easier for a coach to develop a new line than it is for him to de velop a new baekteld. Rutherford, captain of the eleven, and a dashing, all around backfleld man, a . mighty line smasher and an extremely fast man for one of his bulk, will be the varsity fullback, and Porter and Selzer are the : seasoned players who are in the battle for the other halfback position. One or the other is fairly sure of being elected, as the four backfleld men from the sophomore class seem a bit too green Just now but they are developing rapidly. Caley Runa Team. Caley. a heady player, a line man in handling punts and forward passes, with few equals in the west In running through broken fields. Is a certainty for the Quarterback position. Corey, the regular tackle last year, will be a fixture on the line. "Barring accidents, Nebraska ought to be in the fight this year," aaid Stiehm. Not much for a coach to say, but Stiehm is' not given to boasting. Las ytr, when : asked what . he thought of his Nebraska eleven, he said: "Oh, fair." And the "fair" Nebraska outfit went right ahead and played the kind of football that made it a sensation in the west. NATIONAL LEAGUE.

Electric Scoreboard - For 'World's Series" Bought By Palladium 1 While' baseball is a very' uncertain quantity there appears to 'be little' doubt but that Philadelphia will cop the pennant in the National league and Boston in the American. There is more than the usual amount of Interest in the result of the race in Richmond this year, due perhaps, to the good showing made by Cincinnati and baseball is the principal topio of conversation heard on all sides. "-v - V r:-.,w : ", -' ' ' ;;-." ' '. v." - Realising the interest the fans will take in the World's series the Pal Indium has bought an electric score board which win be erected on front of the building on Ninth street and which will show every play of the ' game. . - . As stated the board is operated by electricity and the course of the ball is followed on every play. ; , . ?.'." If a hit is made, say to second base, -the light at second flashes and if the second baseman throws it tox first or home the light flashes at that ... point. -, If you want to see the World's, series without going to Philadelphia or Boston, come to the Palladium building. Arrangements have been made to insall a special -wire from the cities where the games will be played, direct to the Palladium building and the results of every play will be known here almost as soon as they are made.

Jeff is In the best condition he has ever shown, and is bound to make a great showing this year. - His fight with Tommy Gary at Dayton on October 1 will be a picnic for him, as Gary is not in the class at any stage of the game. The Cuban wonder, who comes here October 5, however, will be a difficult morsel for Jeff to chew, and he will have to step fast all the way and keep going if he wants the decision. The Cuban is a hard and fast man and one of the kind that keeps boring in all the time. He is clever with his mitts and fast on his feet. He has met and given severe drubbings to some of the best boys of his weight, and is sure to make the Richmond battler step lively. WILLIAMSBURG USES REGULARS ON TEAM FOR SUNDAY GAME Declaring positively that he would not use any men but those that had played on his team this season in the game at Athletic park on Sunday, with Richmond, Manager Williams announced his line-up last night as follows: O. Davis 3b, O. Davis c, Jennings ss, Wilcoxen p, Duke lb, Clements 2b, Moore If, V. McNutt cf, Bundy rf. All of these men are know to local fans and the team as constituted is a strong one. Jennings is a former member of the Cambridge City Grays and both the Davis boys played with the A. S. M this year in the S. A. L. and are well known to local fans. Vigran will announce his line-up tomorrow and it will probably show the same names that have had a place in the box scores in all the games played this season. ' Minner will undoubtedly pitch and that -means that- Williamsburg will have to go some.

THREE FAST PLAYERS

TRY FOR END PLAGES ON EARLHAM ELEVEN Choice for ends on the Earlham foot, ball squad - this season is simmering down to three men, Meeks, Kutton and Arnett. These - players have shown aggressiveness, are fast and with practice should make sure tacklers. They should also be able to take care of forward passes in a satisfactory manner. Meeks, especially is a shifty player having had considerable experience on the basket ball floor. About thirty-five men were given tackling practice last night on a tract of freshly plowed ground, the coach taking no chances on having bis hopefuls injured prior to the game here a week from Saturday. Coach Whiteside is still endeavoring to instill more ginger into the men. SANTA MARIA FIVE DEFEATS TIPPERARY The second series of games in the Kaysee league was rolled last night at the City bowling alley and resulted in a victory for the Santa Marias. Lichtenfels, who has appeared on every score so far this season was the shining light last night In the first frame he rolled the sensational score of 120 and at that he had the house rooting for him all the way. Sharkitt was the real star of the game making the high run of 186. The summary: Santa Marias. Player Ringhoff . Sharkitt . L. Pfeiffer 1st. 2d. 3d. Total.

The first Richmond fan to pick two all-star teams from the National and American leagues, signing himself "Regular Fan," in a communication to The Palladium, selects two mighty strong line-ups. Each player, Regular Fan writes, has been selected on his record for the season now coming to a close. He are Regular Fan's favorites : National American Toney, pitcher Shore, pitcher Alexander, pitcher Johnson, pitcher Mamaux, pitcher, Foster, pitcher Rudolph, pitcher Caldwell, . pitcher Killifer, catcher Snyder, catcher.

SPORTS OF

BY THE OLD SPORT

Beyond a question of a doubt the! most interesting sporting item flashed on the local contingent in some time was the announcement made that Richmond and Williamsburg ' would play, ball at Athletic park on Sunday. There Is s mistaken Idea in the minds of some people regarding the Richmond and Vigran teams, that had better be made clear. The Vigran team is a member of the S. A. L., and the Richmond team is an independent organisation. While Sam Vigran manages both nines a look at a few of their line-ups will show that there is quite a variation. Speaking of men who are doing all they can to advance the Interests of the younger generation in 'matters per: tainlng to health, George Brehm must not be overlooked, for he never hesitates to go down in his pocket to help any youth of the town in an endeavor to get the benefit of healthful exercise. Its pure sportmanshlp with Mr. Brehm: and he Is another fresh air advocate. In this connection a word on behalf of Billy Benson who conducts the box ing shows held at Eagle's hall should be said,- for it has been so long since Benson made any money at the game that the event has been forgotten. ' Judging from the enthusiasm shown by local bowlers so far, this will be a banner season for the rollers of the heavy pills. Never before has such enthusiasm been shown and the turn out of the boys has surprised the keep ers of the local bowling alleys. Both at the City and Y. M. C. A. alleys there has been a large demand for dates and unless those who have already secured time get in line im mediately there will be small chance for them to have a place to play. There are several lady teams in the course of formation, but they will like ly roll in the afternoons. : AMERICAN FAMILY SOAP Good SOAP! Is cheaper than new clothes.

ALL SORTS From the turnout of the local amateur football team formed a few weeks ago, at practice. It would ap pear that the Quaker City players, or rather a number of them who- are anxious to play, are tesy. Two practices have been held and there have not been more than ten or fifteen men show. When the season is about to open there will be ao many on the field that it will keep coach Logan busy to find work for them to do and when it comes down to select the men to play in the opener, every one of them win want to bo In the line-up. A good, strong eleven here this year would be a booster all around and Its up to the ambitious boys to come out and get in the game.
