Tho basket-ball team started on Its
victorious trip north Tuesday, Janu
ary 17th, meeting the Omaha Y. M. C.
A that evening. A good crowd was
on hand to cheer tho Omaha men, but
despite tho hisses and jecre which were
all too frequently directed against the
team tho final score was 24 for Nebras
ka and 21 for Omaha Y. M. C. A. From
Omaha tho men went to Fort Dodge,
la., via tho Great Western, for a game
with now opponents, the Fort Dodge
Y. M. C. A. Here, on a floor about
half tho size of our own the men from
Nebraska downed their Iowa opponents
by the decisive score of 57 to 23. The
icrowd at Fort Dodge showed true
Bportsman spirit, appauldlng every
good play, whether their team or ours
rando it. After seeing the sights at
Fort Dodgo the team left at 10 on the
J9th at Fairbault, Minn., thero to moct
the team representing the Shattuck
Military acadomy. Again victory was
oura, tho military men going down to
defeat by tho score of 44 to 22, and
being outplayed at every point of tho
game. In tho second half of both the
game at Fort Dodge and at Shattuck
the substitutes were given a chance
and) each tlmo tho subs showed them
selves amply ablo to bundle tho men
aga.Vist whom they played. From
Fairbault the team went to Minneapo
lis for tho final games of the trip, the
two against tho University of Minne
sota. A short' practice was had In the
Gopher armory In the afternoon prior

Minnesota Is about 100 by 35 feet, con
siderably longer than our own and
BOraewhat narrower. A good crowd

wfcolo of this and Saturday's gamo.
Roughness; on the part of Minnesota

her and Hagenslck threw tho first goal,
scoring first for Nebraska. All Ihrough
tho gamo extreme roughness was in
dulged in by Minnesota, and their sup
porters wore greatly dissatisfied with
the decisions which gave tho Corn
huskors opportunities to score from
foul. In spite of rough tactics, Uie
ilnal scoro was 22 to 21 for Nebraska.
Tho game at the calling of time was a
tie, .thiTBCoroboard showing 20-20. Two
points wero necessary for tho gamo to

Minnesota added one to her total, and
Hagenslck cinched the gamo for us by
adding one to our side of tho column.

day afternoon, and again was treated
to a game of extremo roughness on the
part of Mlnnsota. At Nebraska's ln
s'fitence, Dr. CooUe of Minnesota acted
as referee during this gome, but this
fact had nQ offect on tho final outcome
of the game. Minnesota persisted In
"roughing it," and was as persistently
called1 down by Dr. Cooke. Tho final
sore was 28 to25. . The winning of
these, two games from Minnesota gave
Nebraska a clean record' of victories.

MORE GAMES ARRANGED
To See The Basketball Team at
Home.
Mnaager Doors has completed ar
rangements for a game with tho Omaha
Y. M. C. A. on Friday night, February
3. in the Armory. This should be a
very close game Judging from tho score
made by the Omaha team ngalnst the
varsity on the northern trip. Of course,
tho arslty will havo the advantage
of playing on her own floor. Tho
Omaha team is a very fast aggregation
and composed of men who havo played
together for a good many years, thus
having good team work and a thorough
knowledge of each other's playing.
Other games have been arranged for
and the varsity will bo kept busy de
fending tho hoivpis won on this trip.
A gamo will be played with Baker uni
versity of Kansas on February 11. This
game will be played in Lincoln. Two
other games have been arranged for
and Will be played out of town. TheBe
arc William Jewell college of Liberty,
Mo., and Whcaton collogo of Wheaton,
III. These games will be played on
March 2 and March' 24, respectively.
Both of these colleges have-excellent
teams and have made very good show
ings "this year. Other games will be
played In Lincoln between theso games
scheduled to take place In other college
towns. And from tho present Indica
tions Nebraska will havo little trouble
In arranging a game for every .week.
The trip east Is almost a sure thing
now, as communications from several
colleges in the east show. If this trip
a made It will be from Fobruary 13th
until about tho 20th. Chicago univer
sity, Lawrence university and Law
rence Business College will bo included
In this schedule. Chicago has one of
tho strongest basket-ball teams this
year that she has over had. Both of
the Lawrence schools have strong
teams. There will bo five or six games
played during tho trip.
If you got It at Armstrong's, it's
right.
MANAGER VISITS
Mr. Plank, of K. U Pays the
University a Visit.
Ilr DlNcnunon Tho Knnnnn Attltmto on
Athltlr.
Graduate Manager lT. S. O. Plank,
of Kansas university, vlsltod tho Uni
versity yesterday. With Mr. Plank
wore tho men composing tho Kansas
University basket-ball team on tholr
trip Into Nebraska and Iowa. Mana
ger Plank was Interviewed by Mana
gers Morrison, Boors and Allon, and
by various members of tho athlotif
board, and If Mr. Plank's attitude can
be taken as a criterion tho studont
body at Kansas Is voiy much inclined
toward renewing athletic relations with
"Nebraska. He stated that tho scvorlng
of these relations after the football
gamo of last year came as suddenly
and unexpectedly to tho students nt
Kansas as to thoso at Nobraska. When
asked concerning the truth of tho re
port that there was being circulated
among the students at Kansas a peti
tion to havo athletic rolatlons ronowed
with Nebraska, Mr. Plank sold that
such a petition was boing circulated,
and that noarly ovcry man in the uni
versity had already signed It. Aff to
the action the Kansas athlotic board
would tako when this petition wao pre
Fentod he was not prepared .to make a
statement, for that board had not com
mitted Itself.
The K. U. basket-ball toam played
Wesleyan at University Placo Satur
day ovcnlng and was defoated by the
Methodists. Last night they played
tho Omaha Y. M. C. A., and the re
mainder of tholr trip will be in Iown,
whore they play the Y. M. C. A. teams
at Des Moines, Oskaloosa, Fairfield,
etc. Manager Plank stated that pros
pects wero good at Kansas for base
ball this spring and that the track
material available was especially
promising. Kansas meets Missouri and
Colorado on tho track this spring, In
addition to the three-cornered meet
with the fltrtte college nnd one other
Kansas college.
