known local player, will coach the Uni
versity of Omaha quintet this season.
Kavan was chosen last evening by the

dates and will enter upon his work this

dally under the direction of Captain
Adams. Twenty men have been showing
up for work.
Upon request of the players the ath
letic board decided to allow the school to
enter the Tri-Clty league. At first It was
thought that tbe league conttsta, coupled
with the college games, would Interfere
with college work, but this difficulty was
overcome when officials of the loop
s treed to arrange the schedule.
Because of the press of outside work
Theodore Korbmacher has been elected
basket ball manager to succeed William
Melcher. The schedule as outlined calls
for ten colege contents, five at home and
the others away. Reciprocal games are
being arranged with Doane, Cotuer, Kear
ney, Grand Island aod Peru.
