II Attempt to Tlitrnrt llnnkelhnll Men. The old grudge held against the mil itary department by the athletic inter ests, which has lain dormant for some time has again broken forth and a dash seems to be imminent. The basketball men are the ag grieved party In the case and the trou ble Beems to be caused by commandant Chase stoutly refuaing-to excuse a cou ple of basketball players for a night or two in order that they could put the time in on practlco. A basketball man when Interviewed last night stated: "Capt. Chase never did favor athletics and can see no good in anything except his narrow sphere of 'Militarism.' Almost any department in the university would have been glad to excuse the mon but of course his department is bo much more important and superior to other departments., that, perhaps, ho ought to. be excused. Tho military department Instead of helping athletlcB along ha3 always hin dered it and such will continue to be the case as long as the present man agement Is in chargo. Former Com mandants have alwayB been glad' to co-operate with athletics and have In turn received their co-operation, but a change seems to have come over tho spirit of our dreams the last years. I should think the military department would be decent to avoid its present unpopularity among tho students if for nothing more. As far as I know there has never been a concession mado for athletics by the present military department ox cept under pressure, and I cannot see why such obstinacy exists." A reporter called at the office of commandant chase but he happened to be at the state farm, so It is impossi ble to print his side of the controversy. Play Committee. Chairman Ramsey called the Senior play committee together labt night to meet with Miss Howell and make defi nite arrangements for the trials for parts on the class play. Most of the evening was spent in reading over the play "The Two Orphans," but no defi nite decision reached about the selec tion of tho play. Copies of several oth er plays have boon ordered, which, will be hero this week and until these ad ditional plavs are road tho final choice will not bo made. However, there is a decided sentiment of the play "Tho Two Orphans," and tills play will prob ably bo chosen. There wjll bo a meet ing of tho Seniors desiring to try for places in U IOC this morning at 11 a. m. At this time definite arrangements will bo mado regarding tho time and character of the trials, and all Inter ested should be on hand. Tho snow Is no drawback to roller skating at the Auditorium.

MEN CHOSEN .Basketball .Men to go North Are Selected. The basketball team starts north next Tuesday for a week's absence and a series of five hard games before they return. Two new teams and two that wo have already met will bo played on the trip, which winds up with two games with Minnesota, one on Friday evening, January 20th and one tho fol lowing afternoon, January 21st.

Six players and Dr. Clapp will make the trip. The men who will go are Capt Hoar, Manager Beors, Moser, Bell, Hagenslck, Burruss and Krake. This list comprises Borne mon not in the lineup against Highland Park, and the hard work at practlco since that game has proven that these changes are for the best. That these men will make up the 'varsity team the remain der of the season is not at all decided, tor at. any time any other player proves himself a better man he will be given a place. However, these men aie the best at present and will, consequently go north. Pioneers Meet.
