Pleases Good Audience.
Last evening the University Dramat
ic Olub ran in opposition to the Oliv
er's "Sally in Our Alley." and man
aged to draw quite a fair crowd in spite
of tho counter attraction. Those who
attended found themsehes well re
paid by the two plays most delight
fully presented by the club, under the
capablo and efficient supervision ot
Miss Howell.
Tho two plays presented for the
evening's entertainment were "The Ob
stinate Family" and "Lend Me Five
Shillings." Both were cordially re
ceived, tho second one especially so
Tho part of Mr. Gollghtly. the lead
ing character of this play, was an
exceedingly difficult one, out was pre
sented -by Mr. Ptak in an admirable
manner, quite sustaining the, reputa
tion ho won as a participant in "Dav
id Qarrlck" last fall. He appeared
perfectly at home, and did not lose
touch with his audience for a single
moment.
Much credit, nevertheless, remains
to be distributed among the other
members of the cast, each one playing
his pat exceedingly well, and con
tributing much to the success of both
tho first play, in which all the charac
ters were of practically equal import
ance, and the second one. in which Mr.
Ptak "starred." The cast for the two
plays was as follows:
For "Tho Obstinate Family":
Mr. Harwood Mr. Potts
Mrs. Harwood Miss Woodsmall.
Henry Harwood Mr. Kleckner

Tho staging of tho two plays was
under tho supervision of Miss Ruth
Bally, who is to be greatly compli
mented for the tasteful use of the
necessarily rather limited space and
material at her disposal.

and tho crfedUfor which it willingly
shares with its' tireless and enthusi
astic leader, Mlatf Howell. University

Athletics Progress.
Nebraska athletes once more availed
themsehes of the opportunity to prac
tice In the open air yesterday after
noon Several track men tried their
wind on the track and the hurdles,
aulteis and shot putters took a good
work out. Men are at work tearing
down the east bleachers, which will
A Good College Song.
Much better than the Stanford song we published two weeks ago Is the
following"Song of Old Nassau." Read It over, get the "college spirit" it
breathes, and then try your hand at a good Bong for Nebraska. Only a
little over a month remains before the competition ends, and responses to
the call for a University Bong are not embarrassingly numerous. Tune up
and make the endeavor to beat even "Old Nassau:"
Tune ev'ry heart and ev'ry voice,
Bid ev'ry care withdraw;
1 et all with one accord rejoice,
In praise of old Nassau.
CHORUS.
In praise of old Nassau, my boys.
Hurrah! hurrah! hurrah!
Her sons will give while yet they live
Three cheers for old Nassau.
Let music rule the fleeting hours
Her mantle round us draw;
And thrill each heart with all hep
power
In pialse of old Nassau.
Chours: In praise of old Nassau, etc.
likely be stord under the grandstand.
The fence will bo removed as Boon as
possible. These fixtures are very an
noying to the baseball men. Every
time the ball Is batted outside the flel.d.
the men have to climb the fence or
crawl under the bleachers dfter it.
The south part of the field was dragged
yesterday and placed In fair condition.
The field will be rolled at the earliest
opportunity. Infield work will be be
gun today if the weather permits.
The baseball field was fairly covered
with candidates. Nearly forty men re
ported. The practice was very similar
to Tuesday's. Pitchers and catchers
were tried out and tho majority of the
men were given a turn at the bat. The
fielders were kept busy chasing balls.
Ail the. battery candidates showed up
in good form, and Beltzer did -especial-"
Iy well. A new acquisition was made
In the way of a first baseninn in the
person of Moore, who played this posi
tion on the Grinnell team. As yet
there are only two men trying, out for
this place. Yesterday's practice was
unusually fast for the second day's
work. The men have been furnished
with the "toolB," and all thnt Is neces
sary for them to do now Is the work.
The department has a large supply of
balls and bats. Some pads have been
purchased and the equipment, with
the ex(eptlon of suits, is now nearly
complete. Quite a crowd of spectators
occupied the bleachers during tho afternoon.
The prospect for an excellent track
team is a most gratifying one. Most of
last year's team Is back and a great
quantity of new material has shown
up, among it some ery vaulable addi
tions from Lincoln high school's crack
team of '02. The University has made
the valuable acquisition this year of
another member of the famous Bene
dlnct family, and Morris promises to
even excel his brothers. He will try
for the pole vault and middle distance
run and is an all round man. Forty
men have registered for track work,
among them Captain Tobin. Lehmer,
Mouck, Carr and Johnson of last year's
Nolow'ry chaplet would we twine.
To wither and decay,
The' gems that sparkle In her crown
Shall never pass away.
Chorus: Shall' never pass away, etc.
And when these walls In dust are
laid.
In reverence and awe
Another throng will breathe our song
In praise of old Nassau.
Chorus: In praise of old Nassau, etc.
Till then with Joy our song we'll
bring
And while a breath we draw,
We'll all unite to shout and -sing
Long life to old Nassau.
ChontB: Long life to old Nassau, etc.
team. Other candidates who were out
Tuesday Martin, Leonard, Ienbrook,
Winchester and Vance. Martin will
likely put the shot or throw the ham
mer, and the other men will try for?
the sprints. With Dr. Clapp as coach
thero is n,o reason why Nebraska's
track team of '03hould not be a win
ner. Practice will be held every after
noon and men whb expect to make the
team will have to be punctual and
regular in attendance and work hard,
as competition will be strong in overv
event. Manager Walton has not yet
completed the schedule, but the men
may rest assured that there will be
something in store for them well worth
workln for. Every man is urged to
turn out and this year try and bring
track athletics tfp to as high a standi
ard as football.
