Football Schedule Rapidly Being
Brought to Completion.
niiAcbalt Dntca Arc Not Yet Filled Some
Good Homo Games.
Ex-football Manager Davis an
nounced yesterday that Nebraska's
.schedule for contests on the gridiron
next season Is assuming a definite
shape It Is planned to arrange for
eleven games, and of this number sev
en have already been definitely settled.
Among the seven scheduled are some
decidedly stiff propositions, and with
the other four now boing arranged the
Cornhuskors will have to develop a
football machine well nigh perfect to
keep up their enviable record. The
trouble among several of the Big
Nino teams has apparently been set
tled, and the end of this week should
find our schedule completely rounded
out. Prospects are very bright for
some excellent games on our own
grounds, and If plans do not go wrong
at the last minute the schedule for
1005 will be bettor than that for last
season, and will be arranged in a man
ner far better suited tq bring out the
Lest in the team. The names of the
colleges with which games have al
ready been arranged cannot as yet be
made public, as some of those with
whom Mr. Davis is now in communi
cation may not come to terms, thus
necessitating other changes. The com
pleted list of games will be ready for
publication in tho near future.
As yet baseball Manager Allen-has
bc-en unable to fill out the three dates
left open on tho eastern schedule.
These open dates are the result of a
failure on the part of three colleges
with whom negotiations wore, ponding
to come to terms. Tho schedules of
many of tho larger schools, when com
munications were sent, were too far
advanced to permit them to -place Ne
braska on their list. It mny be necos
sary to change some of .he dates al
ready considered settled in order to
fill these still open. Arrangements are
being made to glvo the baseball
fans better games on tho home grounds
this year than they had last, but thcJ
list of these games is not yet complete.
An
important collection of grains,
grasses, etc., recently received by the
Department of Geology aB a contribu
tion to the state museum is now being
placed on exhibition by tho curator.
The contribution consists of threo hun
dred and tblrty-scve.n collections of
giains,. grasses, etc. Tho collection was
received from Argentine Republic be
ing sent to tho State Museum by E. N.
Nelson, commissioner of agriculture of
Argentine Republic. Tho collection
was prepared by M. Angel Peluffe Calle
ArtJn, Buenos Ayres. H. G. Shedd,
secretary of the Nebraska commission
at tho world's fair was Instrumental
in securing the collection.

Complimented.
The Nemaha County Herald, pub
lished at Auburn, Neb., gives a column
and a half to the concert given by the
Glee club at that place a week ago.
The remarks contained In tho article
were complimentary in tho extreme,
the club, and Miss Archibald and Mr.
Myeis being praised In the highest
toims. Only one criticism was offered
and that was that the program was a
tiifle too classical for tho towns ut
vhich the club is to appear throughout
the state. The Herald closes its com
ments with tho wish that Auburn may
b favored again next year with an
other program by tho Glee club.
Changes Planned.
In order that tho advantages of the
smaller college may be combined with
those of the larger university President
Harper, of the University of Chicago,
has made plans which anticipate radi
cal changes.
"Like Oxford, Chicago is to be di
vided Into small colleges, each to have
a separate name, but all to be under
one head and one scheme of direction.
About twelve oi fifteen new buildings
will be erected for that purpose. It Is
estimated that $5,000,000 to $10,000,000
will bo needed to carry out Dr. Har
per's schemes.
Thus far no gifts have been received
to cover the cost of such a change."
President Wilson, of Princeton, hns
recommended tho expenditure of somo
$10,000,000 to carry out a similar
change at that institution.
- First to Organize.
The girls have organized a tennis
club which will bo an organization
similar to the men's club. They have
secured the lot southeast of tho cam
pus for their- court and will have It
put In order as soon as the weather
permits. "A goodly number are In the
club and much enthusiasm has been
shown. t

team has had this year from Minneso
ta for a game, but it was thought im
possible until Just latoly, to make the
trip.
This game will be played in Minne
apolis on March 17. The girls will have
a hard game when they meet Minne
sota but the team was never in better
form and plalng better ball than they
are at the present time. With an ovon
chance nnd no accidents the girls
should return from Minnesota with a
victory.
