ATHLETICS.
JOIN THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION,
JOIN THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
In both the University papers, one article of the constitution of the above association was published; the article in regard to membership. This article states that for fifty cents one may become a member of the association and be entitled to a vote; for the payment of two dollars one may become a member of the association and also receive a ticket which will admit him to all games and meets in McCook field, under the direction of the University Athletic association, for a period of one year.
The majority of students should become a members in this second way, for if interested in the different athletic teams of the University he should do this much for their support. And second, there is already two foot ball games scheduled for the home grounds and a strong probability or one or two more being scheduled; besides these there will be the field meets and the base ball games. So from an economical standpoint, this is a good plan.
Let the students enter into this with a good will, and show that you have some University spirit.
THE TRAINING QUARTERS
The builder, formerly occupied by the law department of the University, is now used as the training quarters for the football eleven.
As to the situation of this building, nothing need be said, for every student by this time knows where North College is. At present only the first floor is being used by the team. The room, on the northeast corner of the building, is used as the dressing room. During the early part of last week, water was put in the building and a well equipped bath room is the result. This is one of the nicest features of the training quarters and by reason of the bath very likely cases of sickness will be avoided. For, as before, when the team had no well equipped quarters, the players walked quite a distance to their rooms and after getting there sat around for an hour or so—thus taking chances of having a cold next day.
The training table was started this week with about fifteen members. The food of this table will not be found wanting in either quality or quantity, as there will be plenty of good, plain, substantial food known as "muscle making" food.
Let the students take an active interest in everything connected with the eleven. During your spare hours inspect the quarters and by so doing you will show an interest in the team
FOOTBALL
During the past week there has been a marked improvement in the team and the good results of careful and systematic training are beginning to show.
Mr. Cowan's system is certainly an admirable one. At 4 p.m. the men trying for places on the team are expected to be at the training quarters, putting on their suits and getting ready for the afternoon's practice. At 4:30 they report at McCook field. For about twenty minutes the time is spent in punting, passing and falling on the balls. This warms and limbs the man for the practice game which follows. After this preliminary exercise, the men are divided in two eleven; one, the first eleven, the other, the "scrub," the men constituting the first eleven having shown some superiority over the others, from time to time the members of both are changed The teams then "line up" for a short but hard game, in which every man plays the best that he can. After playing until a few minutes before 6 the members of both teams take position along the line of one of the goal posts and prepare for a race across the field to the other goal. We notice among the first to finish in this, are Turner, Steinberger, Morrison, Shellenberger and others from time to time. The time made in this is near fifteen seconds. From this it is evident that there are some good sprinters on the team This closes the practice for the afternoon. The men now go to the
quarters, bathe and get ready for supper.
Among the men playing on the first eleven is found Shellenberger, Steinberger, Armour, Williamson, Stone, Pope, McMurry W., McMurry A. and Walker. Shellenberger's running and dodging is always brilliant and always that of a cool headed player. Steinberger's end plays, as they attracted attention last year, they attract much attention this year. Armour has not been here long as the others, but still he is putting up his usual good game. Williamson plays "full" just as if he had never played any other position. His punting is certainly A No.1, and he has become quite proficient in kicking goals from the field. Our "full back" this year will certainly not be excelled, and it is doubtful if he will meet his equal, in the teams which we will play. Stone is playing his usual strong game at center. Pope's playing at "guard" is very much like that of "Shorty" Hamill's last year; Pope is a good man and will probably make the team. The running and dodging of McMurry W. is every good; with good interference he will usually make a gain. At present, however, the interference is weak, and much improvement in this direction is necessary. Morrison is playing a good game behind the line.
The students seem to be taking more interest daily and during this week there has been quite a crowd out to cheer and encourage the team.
There has been a little objection on the part of the players in regard to the spectators getting on to the field. By every one moving back a little each will be able to see and thus no one will be in the way.
Let the number of students who go out to the practice increase daily. Try to get out two or three afternoons of the week. You can spare an hour late in the afternoon for the sake of the University eleven. Let the team see that they have the support of the students, and this will go a long ways towards making a winning team.
