Wishes to Play Nebraska Nine at the Big City. Manager Bell of the baseball team 1b In receipt of a challenge from Chi cago University for a game to be played In Chicago on any one of the four following dates, May 4, 6, C or 7. Whether this challenge can be accepted or not remains to be seen. Nebraska already has a heavy schedule and these dates are practically filled. Neverthe less an attempt to take on this game will likely be made. The Cornhusker nine will be in Illinois according to the present schedule on the Gtli and 7th of May and Chicago could be made at this time with but comparatively little extra expense and time. At any rate, Nebraska has reason to feel compli mented over a challenge from Chicago University. It indicates stronger than ever the growth In athletics made at Nebraska in the past four years and gives evidence of her present high standing In college athletics. Joint Party Tonight.

Military Department Makes Fav lorable Ruling. The difficulty that recently arose be tween the baseball boys and the mili tary officers has disappeared suddenly and completely. The commandant an nounced to the battalion Wednesday night that those who had taken three semesters of drill previous to the open ing of the present semester, and have been carrying their five hours this semester, will have completed all re quirements by April -1st. and can then drop out of the battalion. If they abandon drill at that time, however, no credit will be given for this semes ter'H work In the military department. This ruling. It will be seen, is made on tho old regulation, not on the new. The old system required four semes ters of drill, but this was for three hours per week only. Under the pres ent system, three semesters of drill are required and the battalion falls In five dayB In the week.

And eyes grow bright, and hearts grow light, And spirits rise anew, To see the colors that we love, A knot of white and blue. CHORUS: A little knot of white and blue. The badge our fathers knew. Our sons In turn its charm shall learn, A knot of white and blue. No lapse of time can hope to harm, Nor after years dispel, The fresh, unfailing, tender charm Of what we love so well, Of days that fly In rapture by. Of friends so staunchly tfue, And alma mater's dainty badge, A knot of white and blue. hour. Two teams were picked and about an even score made. It began to rain about 4 o'clock, and the men were compelled to leave the field. The track men were not outside, but took a workout In the gym.

By giving the boys an opportunity to drop out at the first of April, it is figured that they will have fulfilled the requirements as to time under the old ruling, minus the credit already earned this semester. This ruling gives those who wish to play baseball during the spring months an opportunity to do bo, but by sacri ficing the hour and a half of credit that would be gained if they were to continue until the end of the semester.
