A little rain and mud did not
dampen the ardor of fraternity fans
as they marched to various fields at
various times throughout Thursday to
see their bunch either licked or vie
torious. Sorority girls seemed to
take a special interest in the strug

in their rooting, cheering from soror
ity quarters was not very loud
In a merciless slaughter Delta Chi
annihilated Bushnell Guild 17-4. Beck
delivered for the Delta Chi's and
Whittier and Bridenbaugh received.
Beck struck out sixteen of the Bush
nell Guild nine. Reed and Addison
were on the mound for the B. G.'S
and Judd caught. The game -was
marked by heavy hitting in every
inning by the Delta Chi's, while the
Bushnell Guild's were held to a few
and far-between smashes.
A large crowd was on the high
school field to see the outcome of the
Phi Delta Theta-Phi Kappa Psi com
bat which was called Wednesday eve

wait to be ASKED to contribute

LOCALS SHUT OUT
DAKOTA COYOTES

Northern Neighbors by Air
Tight Playing.
PLAN HARD SCRAP TODAY
Schlssler's Husker nine completely
walloped the Coyotes from the South
Dakota University 7 to 0 yesterday
afternoon at the M street ball park,
before Hire') hundred enthusiastic
rooters. The game was featured by
consistent hitting on the part of th"
Nebraska sluggers and a number of
stellar plays by both teams.
The home artists were able to pull
out of many light places by the ex
cellent support given by individual
players. The much-heralded slab ar
tist from Vermilion who expects to
enter the big leagues as soon as col
lege baseball takes a back seat, failed
lo deliver the goods against the
onnishing Huskers. He seemed to
depend upon his out-drop during the
entire battle, but the Schissler
proteges had little trouble connecting
with the sphere.
Captain Pickett pitched his usual
consistent ball, and the work of
Hubka in the center garden proved
that the Coyotes could find little hope
of a safe hit with a fly in that direc
tion. Hubka also worked well at the
bat, making both a single and a
double at critical moments. Ne
braska hit the ball at opportune times.
The errors made by the Husker nine
were at periods when they counted
but little. Pickett and McCrory
smashed the ball for two hits each.
Lynn connected for a pretty two
bagger. For the enemy Morkey at first
base and Duncan in right field divided
the three hits doled out to the Coyotes
between them. Hengle who twined

nouncement was made that after a
year of drill each student could keep
his uniform. This change by the
war department will make such a
privilege impossible.
