Kntorod at tin1 post ofllco ut L'ncoln, Nob us second olius.s mull mutter The approaching eloclion for luot ball manager for l!H2 Is hrinnlrn; forth a now and vital uuestlon: Shall Nebraska have a graduate manager (.f utilities oreontlnue with her Drcsent system of untleru radii tes? It is nc inu nred hy some members ol the board that "Nebraska fall In line with Chicago, Northwestern, Michigan, and Wisconsin by placing the general supervision ol all athletics undei one head. It lias. been found cheaper 111 the lonn iun to do tins. The man ager is paid a salary and devotes his time to the general betterment of all around at hletics. The men who ad unite this move, say it Is one of the results of our changed conditions in athletics. They claim that in scheduling with the bin nine whose mummers are the sumo for several years, tho student manager, if he be ablo to cope with them, does so at a disadvantage. Tlioy are paid for service and conse quently keop close watch on all kinds of athletics in all Kinds of places. The managers become acquainted and that helus. "Now that Nebraska has her ooiTcrs tilled ano llnancial matters on a lirm foot! ml' tho graduate man age should be by all means installed. Thoro aro so mo low wh' still cling to tho student manager idea. They claim it honors the upper classmen and what is lost in oxporience is al most made up oy the enthusiasm or tho student manager. He foi the time being devotes his energy with abllltv and success. 11m last two, seasons of lojithalLl management under Messrs Tukey and (Jowglll have neen especially suc cessful in respect to both fuotbail and U nances. When tho old debts were all paid there was nothing in the troasury. Tho base nail manage ment started tho eastern trip on personal funds. This year arter all outstanding obligations wero can celled, there remained between $3.7)00 and $1,000 on hand. There was some talk of hiring u gruduate manager for tho lust season on a salary. This met with considerable approval. And now that thoro is somo talk ul mak ing tho like offer to Mr. Cowgill, it moots with general approval.. Tho student bodv appreciate good athlet ics. It is not known whether Mr. Coworili would accpt or reject the offer If it Is made. But in any caco ho is without doubt the man for the plnco. TUMMjICWEKDR." Will Heed Dunroy's New Volume of Verne. When Will Reed Dunroy saw tho first copy of his new volume of verso, "Tumbleweeds." it may bo well imagined that lie took great satisi ac tion in the deidcatlon: "To My Heloved Mother." For the book is a credit to him, typographically as well as llterarlly considered. Tho advance copies have conic to Sioux City. It is better than "Com Tassels." In Ills "foreword," I)unro has ulven the purpose of the book: Across tho plain tho tumbleweed Rolls lazily Its ways, A target briefly In Its Might For Idle, curious gaze. No purpose havo they in their Mights, Nor a'm, nor lesson taught: Like tumbleweeds they scarce com mand The effort of a thought. It they but make one instant gay, Or while one tedious hour, Their purpose has been found In full The fruit has crowned the Mower. It should be said that Dunroy has omitted somo things of a melancholy vein, that his writings published 111 this book might properly fulfill the wish of his foreword. Some of I lie torsos ate properly poet ry and others are metrical lines, full ol color, ol sun, ol shadow, and of a subtle sense of things seen and felt which betokens an author well removed from the ranks of newspaper rhy. listers. His car is true and some of his linos are rcmarkblc For lu st ami1 one which appeard in 'Corn Tassels," Mr. Dunroy's preceding olumo or verse, in ''Wind In the Corn," repeated by request: And list to the lisp of the lashing leaves As the wind blows through the corn. More than common attention has been paid to the verses, "Nebrasky." and, as Mr. Dunroy has been called tne poet 01 .enrasKa, a erse is given: A wide, wide stretch o' level land, With here and llnr a town, An' broad, Mat 1 Ivors, sluggishly An' slowly lnovin' down An' that's Nebrasky. In an introductory by Willis Marsh all, author or "Cycles" and other verse, this is said of Mr. Dunroy's work: "Our author has not attempted the statclincss of the epic. His poems oeal with tho simple, commonplace things of everyday lrfo: and yet he has given to these a touch of the neaiiLiiui unci mio suunme. ins lines - rtl.lu.UiihwtKQ. -i. ..,i u "" v"' ""' ' "iio cjiivi uiid mur mur of the brook, nothing ostenta tious, nothing severe, all in accord with tho sweot rhythm or the music of nature-. Por the reasons that the men and women of tho west are poets by sent iment, whether in town or on tlio farm, and that Dunroy sots to words many of tho thoughts tho western iro suggests, his book has tho right of way to success. Thoro aro many things in "Tumbleweeds" which aro worth haying. Tho collection is truly a very dainty and refreshing hunch, between covers of tho croons of wavinc prairlo grass brightened with gold like goldenroa. -From the Sioux City Tribune.
