...blank. Ask him to name you one in Omaha and out will buzz: "The Bee." One of the oldest newspapers west of the Mississippi, the Bee has stung itself into the U. S. folk-consciousness not only by its bumbling name but by appropriate industry. That its industry might reap greater rewards, it last week (in the person of Publisher Nelson B. Updike) bought out and absorbed its chief competitor, the Omaha Daily News, 28-year-old member of the Clover Leaf Syndicate...

...particularly interesting to note in connection with what these Presidents have declared. The first is that in the campaign from which the smoke has not yet had chance to clear a number of prominent participants have been men of independent means, men obviously not in the political field to reap monetary harvest.

Displaying a fast, versatile backfield behind a hard-charging line, with the two parts functioning in machine-like style, Brown crushed a bewildered Lehigh team by 32 to 0. Randall was a terror to the Lehigh defense, tearing through big holes in the line to reap gain after gain. Edes, at quarterback, was effective in running back kick, taking the ball on the dead run, and attaining his full speed almost at once. The cooperation of the line and backfield was excellent, and the Erunonians give every promise of being hard to stop in later games...
