This moi ning at chapel time the Ji.n
lors will meet in Memorial hall in an
other attempt to devise moans for set
tling for fhe "07 caps. A number of
methods for disposing of the matter
hae been announced', among them the
proposition to buy Junior caps this
year at wholesale and sell them out
to the members of tho class at retail
prices. It Is not expected, however,
that the entire sum. outstanding
against tire class can no raised in this '
way, and new suggestions will he re
cehed at. the meeting this morning.
Tho flan which appeals to many ol
the class is an asses anient 0:1 each

would make this scheme effective, al
though It Is confessed that the Jun

abundance of thi-i quality so far this
year. Still other members of the class

Basketball Game With Gophers
May be Played January 21.
A tentative dute for a game of bas
ketball with the University of Minne
sota, has been made by Manager Boers
lor January 21st, In Minneapolis. II
games ca.i be scheduled en route to do
fray part of the expenses and warrant
our accepting Minnesota's proposition,
we will meet the Gophers on that date.
With the lesson learned Friday even
ing lu the game against Highland Parl
marked- im.roemcnt should begin to
be apparent from now on. .Our for
wards will have to learn how to hang
on to swift passes, for to tho fumbling
ot these swift throws are due many of
the failures to score Friday night.
Whether or not our long swift passes,
il handled properly, aro more effective
than the short pass used by Highland
Pnrk is still a question. A combination
of the two ought to be thtybeM, and
the short pass, at the side lines, where
thete Is more open space and less
chaiKc of blocking should ho .rac
tlced more.
