Prom present indications the Nebraska-Missouri debate to oo held May 1st will call forth a larger attendance than any debate ever held at this in stitution. This will be the only op portunity tills year for Nebraskans to turn out and see what their representa tives can do. Interest in debate has developed considerably during the past two years, an. more enthusiasm has been manifested this year than ever before. The selection of the third judge has been under consideration during this "week and will probably be definitely settled upon t.. s morning. The pictures of three men who will soek to put an end to Nebraska suc cessive triumphs in Intellectual con tests have arrived. The members of the team are experienced debaters and will certainly put up a strong fight. Mr. E. F. Nelson, the leader of the team, has been a leader in the inter society contests during the past two years. He lias repeatedly represented the "New Era Debating Club" and is now president of that club. Mr Nelson is a junior in the college and In the law school. Mr. V. 0. Nardln, the second speak er, was the leader of the 1U01 team that defeated Nebraska. He is editor-in-chief of the Missouri Independent. He Is specializing in political economy and is a member of the American Eco nomic association. Mr. F. C. Donnell, the third speaker, has represented the M. S. U. club in joint debates and Is president of that organization. He was a member of the team that met Nebraska last year. The support accorded Nebraska de baters has not been unnoticed by other states. Last week's Missouri Independ ent, in urging the students to support their teams and attend the Kansas de bate, mention the big reception our victorious team received last year on their return from MisBourl. With the interest that Is being aroused, wo ought to set the Mlssourlans a shining example this year. The Junior-senior joint reception, which was originally set for May 1st, has been postponed in order not to in terfere with the Nebraska-MtBsouri de bate. A party of debaters from the Omaha high school are coming down to hear the debate. They are anxious to see "how it Is done." Palladians at Crete. The Pallodion club debated with the Alpha Omega club at Crete Friday night, and report an enjoyable time. They left here at 6 p. m. and were met at the depot at Crete by a committee who treated them royally till they left the next morning at 9. The teamB put up good debates, save for the fact that they had a tendency to discuss whether trusts wore an evil, rather than whether a rdmoval of the tariff would remedy the evil. Palladlan debaters were John Clark, John Brady and Ernest F. Monroe. All are warm in their praises of Alpha Omega shospltallty. Before leaving, the boys hod a chance to see Crete and some of Its surroundings. Saturday night the P. B. D. C. will debate the question, "Resolved, That lawyers are not beneficial to mankind." Affirmative: John Clark, G. Hamilton. Negative: Nellson, Le Groh. Dr. Aley, chronic diseases, 1318 O. Porter, your school furnisher. UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, $SSSh$S$S NEBRASKA INDIANS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY, 3:30 P. M. Nebraska Field 25 and 35 cents 3S$eSHSs-S$ Sombrero Out Soon The Sombrero board is at last able to report that the Sombrero will be out about the 4th of May. It Is prac tically all printed, the last forms being now on the press; and as soon as it can be bound, will be put on sale. Al though it was expected that the book would be out In April, the slowness of students in getting their pictures taken and in handing in material to the board has postponed the day of publication. The Sombrero this year will contain a larger number of pages than over before and the larger part of this is devoted to serious matters. The junior cuts and biographies cover fifty pages, whereas in former annuals they only took up ten pages. The book Is dedi cated to the football team and the cuts of team and players, which are found in the athletic department, are well worth the price of the whole book. The military department is represented by a larger number of pages and a larger number of cuts than ever be fore. Each society and fraternity is given from two to four pages. There Is no organization or university inter est that is neglected. Although the literary department is necessarily short, it is very Interesting, containing as it does the productions of some of the best story writers and poets of the University. The "Josh" department covers forty-five pages, thickly Illustrated with drawings by Powell, Hansen, Severln and Miss Branson. . On the outside, too, the book Is very attractive. It is bound in Bcarlet with a large cream cowboy stamped In the cloth. The cover measures eleven Inches by eight and three-quarters..

Tho first gamo of the Inter-fraternlty series for tills year was played yester day on Nebraska field, amid outbursts of enthusiasm sufficient to arouse the whole neighborhood. Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Chi were the oppos ing fraternities, and nearly as much play was done vocally from tho sldo lines as on the diamond. McGeachln and Parker officiated as battery for the victors, and Gould and Burg for the vanquished. Both teams showed lack of practice, with Sigma Chi excelling In that deficiency. Both will later meet other teams representing the remain ing fraternities, and will probably re flect greater credit upon themselves and their grandstand enthusiasts by a specimen of ball more nenrly resem bling the real article. Tho Betas and Sigma Chis will play the second of tho series this afternoon. The lawyers upheld their reputation on the diamond yesterday afternoon and held the 'varsity down to thirteen scores, after six innings of fast and spectacular playing. The laws were In their best form and played a winning game from start to finish. TownBend and Hood, the star hitters on the 'varsity side, fell before the mighty arm of Sampson, the twlrler for the laws, and retired from the plato after the fatal third trlke had been called. There was nothing doing on either side during the first Inning. Wlllhlto and Wright went Out on grounders that Hood and Fetz had no trouble In striking over to second, and Everett fanned. Tho 'varsity repeated the op eration and In the second, Wilson went out on a fly to left field. Stoen walked to first, and Shelmer made his first baso because the man on second fumbled. A passed ball brought In Steon and placed Shelmer on second and Johnson on first. Whltcomb knocked a two bagger and the three men scored. Townsend scored in the next Inning, and In the lost, eight more men crossed the home plate. Longanaecker, who occupied the box for the "colts," was easily hit, but had good support and none of tho laws could get farther than third. Three men were struck out. Whltcomb played behind the bat until Bender arrived. Gore held down left field In the absence of Bell. Other wise the men played the same posi tions as formerly. Now that the first baseball team Is made up, the second nine will have something to do besides continually lining up against the 'varsity. On Fri day and Saturday, when the first team meets the Nebraska Indians on tho home grounds, the second team will make a trip to Clay Center, where they will meet the team of that place on Friday afternoon. Tho men will re turn Saturday. This will certainly encourage those who have failed to make the first team to continue prac tice. A trip of 162 miles Is worth, tak ing. Further, this gamo Is not the only game which will be scheduled for the second team this year. Manager " Eager has other contests In view for his "colts." Twelve men will make the trip Friday.
