FRESHMEN CHAMPIONS. Won Last Night From the Seniors by One Point. The championship for interclass bas ket ball was carried off last night by 'the freshmen by a slnglo point The score stands 25 to 24. The game was lively and spirited throughout, the teams being quite evenly matched. Neither seemed to have any advantage over the other, and not until the time keeper's whistlo blew at the end of the second . half ,was it known how the game would end. The first half ended with a score of 18 to 14 In favor of the freshmen. When the second half began, Myers led off with two goals, and for a while It seemed aB though the juniors would turn tables on the freshmen. The freshmen, however, wero not to be run away with so easily. Their excellent team work soon brought them to the front again, and for ten minutes the goals wero thrown alternately. When there were but el$ht minutes left the two teams tied on a score of 22. Then the playing becanie. fierce, and the side lines, though small In numbers, be came quite noiBy. Then Myers threw a goal, wEicff was followed by One from Krake, making the score 24. The excitement became Intense. The ball was passed up and down the field; sev eral fouls wore made, but the players were too oxclted to throw goals. Final ly, when but one minute remained, Mathewson throw a foul for the fresh men, making the score 25 to 24. The juniors were making a fierce attempt to gain another goal when the whistle blew, leaving the freshmen victorious. -The points made: Freshmen Mathew son 4 goalB and 5 fouls, Krake 3 goals, Horn 3 goals; Juniors Myers 5 goals and 1 foul,' Nbyes 2 goals, 1 yner 3 goals and 1 foul, Flansburg 1 goal. The juniors attnoute their defeat to the absence of Ludden, who was con sidered one of their strongest men. The attendance was decidedly poor, neither team, being supported by their classmen. There were- not, from a rough estimate, more than thirty peo ple on the sidelines. The members of the victorious team are Horn, Mathewson, Krake, Lee, and Clark. ' - . Practice Resumed.

Base ball practice was again resumed yestorday, after two days' Interrup tion. The men wero out from 1 till 4:30 In the endeavor to make up for lost time. Thirty candidates reported, and a fast, snappy practice was held. A crowd of seventy-five watched the work from tho bleachers. Ike Ray mond, last year's first baseman, was an interested spectator. Tho first part of tho afternoon was spent In tho usual mannor. Two men batted flies and ten fielders were kept busy chasing balls. Beltzer, Chase, Longaenecker, Rueblsky, Myers, and Sampson wero tried out In tho box, and Bender and Wilson did the work behind tho bat. The most of the men were given a try at tho bat. During tho lost half hour- Infield work was begun for the first time thlB season and had decidedly the appear- anco of "baseball." Coach Gordon batted grounders to the men, who were instructed in the art of "scoop ing" and quick and sure throwing. Bender and Whltcomb had charge of home plate, whllqMoore and WIlBon wero given a chance to show their ability on first. Captain Townsend, McGeachln, and Johnson were tried on second, and Hood and Ramsey on third. Steen and Johnson wero given a chance at short. All of these mon showed up in good form. In tho field Gaddls, Shelmer, Spraguo and Cook showed up well. Shelmer was a mem ber of last year's team, while Gaddls played In the outfield for tho Harvard city team; Sprague was on tho Bhel don team, and is a man of several years' experience. Cook has played ball with the Missouri Valley nine. Baseball enthusiasts will regret to learn that tho Nebraska nine will not meet Colorado University this year, especially as this was one of the home games. The game was to have taken place on May 18. Colorado was forced to cancel this game on account of the inability to fill some dates on her east ern schedule, and the whole trip has been abandoned. An additional rea son given Js the embarrassing condi tion pf Colorado's finances. One thou sand dollars was lost on football, and this baseball trip would have cost some $500 more, and the athletic board concluded they could not stand the pressure. The date will not bo filled. Nebraska plays Washburn and St. Marys in Kansas on the 15th and 16th, and returns home Sunday.-, A rest of two days before the Highland Park gamo on tho 20th. will bo a gdod thing for tho team. This year, as usual, the management is annoyed by thievish lads who con gregate just outside the west fence and run away with the balls which are batted over the grandstand. Manager Bell intends to secure someone to keep an eye on these balls and put a stop to this practice. Already several balls have been stolen in this manner and It is felt that now Is the time to put an end to such work. Hobson Says True Socialism Will Come Gradually. An audience that filled the' old chapel to overflowing listened with keen in terest last evening to Mr. John A. Hobson's talk on "Socialism True and FalBe." After a brief Introduction by Professor Taylor, Mr. Hobson proceed ed directly to his discussion, the main points of which wero as follows: Competition, in tho old sense, Is ad mitted to no longer answer the eco nomic needs of society. A new rela tionship must be established betwoen society and Its two industrial agents, capital and labor. The now relation ship will not bo co-operation, as that .-term Is now understood; nor will It be the destruction of the modern com bination, or the complete socialization of all Industry. The real solution of tho modern Industrial problem lies along two lines: the popular owner ship and control of those large indus tries now composing or tending toward trusts; and the popularization of gov ernmental machinery sufficiently to make democracy the rule of tho peo ple a fact as well as a, name In present-day republics. The solution of this problem will be through education and through gradual extension of Btate functions, and not through a sudden or dangerous process of revolution. No 'less striking than his theories to tho average person was Mr. Hobson's personality. Tall and slender ap proaching clcfloly his friend Dr. Ross in height, but not in substantialness with nervous hand making a continu ous journey from trousers' pocket to coat-tall buttons and thence to the desk; slow and deliberate in utterance, but spoaklng with the steady assurance of one of long and steady thought upon the topic in hand all these malte Mr. Hobson and his theories the more 'In teresting to those who find personality as fascinating a Btudy as political principles. A large proportion of tho audience consisted of city people, drawn therd by the reputation of the speaKer And the Importance of his topic. I? is safe to say tho majority of them will aid In providing another overflow audi ence for Mr. Hobson's second address, next Tuesday evening, upon "England's Outlook in tho Now Century."
