NEBRASKA WINS GLORY.
Baseball Team Returns After a Suc
cessful Trip Nine Games out of
Fourteen Won Summary
of the Wesk's Games.
The baseball team returned fom Its
eastern trip Sunday morning. From
every point of view tho trip was
probably the most successful ever
taken by a University of Nebraska
team. Out of fourteen games played
nine were won. Ono of the losses was
to n strong professional team. The
other losses were due In almost every
ease to Individual errora and not to
poor team work.
The game at Notre Dame was played
after an all night's rldo on the train.
This defeat was duo to the bad condi
tion of the men, so that the best of
them fell down at critical points. The
Nebraska team made fourteen errors,
while the Catholics had b ut nine
charged against thorn. Nebraska did
some hard hitting, knockink three
pitchers out of the box and finally
forcing them to put In Fleet, their star
man, and even from him they were
able to get three singles, a three-bagger
and a home run.
In the contest with the South Bend
professionals, Nebraska had tho game
won .until the -last half - oi tWiiinth
inning, when It began to rain, allow
ing tne "Greens" to run In enough
scores to change the balance.
At Bloomington the team wont di
rectly to the grounds from tho train
In the last half of the ninth tho score
stood 3 to 4 In favor of Nebraska.
Here Raymond dropped a ball and let
a man safe on first who afterwards
completed the circuit, tying the score.
With a little aid from tho umpire they
succeeded in getting another run in
the eleventh, and won by a score of
4 to 5.
The game with Purdue was ours un
til the sixth, when Do Putron muffed
a fly and let a man in. After that it
was a walkaway for the Indlanalans.
The team for tho most part did ex
cellent work individually. Townsend
will probably lead the batting list.
Gtlneo also did some hard hitting and
(1H excellent work In the box. In
oveiy jiame he was well supporte'd by
tho team. Hood at third. and Rhodes
at short did their usual good work.
Bell played almost errorless. Behind
tho bat Finley and Doan both did
good work and successfully prevented
base stealing.
Financially the trip was the most
successful ever taken by a Nebraska
team.
The second week of tho trip opened
with tho team at Columbia, Mo., where
two games were played. Tho game on
Monday was very one-sided. Bender
was In tho box and played a star
game. Only seven hits wore charged
up against him, and with fifteen
chances he failed to make a single
error. Up to tho fifth inning tho two

On Tuesday the second game with
Missouri was played. The work of
both teams was poor, especially in tho
field. Nebraska had no difficulty in
hitting the Tiger pitcher. The work
of the Missouri infield was also coarse.
The visitors stole bases at will. The
Mlssourians hit hard for the first four
Innings and mnde their ten runs dur
ing that part of tho game. During
the last half they were helpless against
Townsend's hot ones. The Cow
boys scattered their sixteen runs
along the first six innings, starting
with five In the first, which was in
creased by one in the second, six in
the fourth, and one and three respec
tively In the fifth and sixth. The
score:
Nebraska 5 1061300 016
Missouri 3 0 4 3 0 0 0 0 010
Hits Nebraska 10, Missouri 7.
Errors Nebraska 10, Missouri 5.

Fifteen to six was the way it stood
on Wednesday and William Jewell
college was the victim. The Cowboys
were winners from the start. Tho
ease with which they found the ball
and tho costly error of the Baptists
did the work. Bender was in tho box
and held the homo team down to six
hits. Their six runs were due to care
less playing' by the Nebraska team. Tho
score:
