Price 5 Cents ISbe Batfo 1R vr NINTH VICTORY Nebraska Debaters Win Ninth Successive Victory. Close Contest Renal (n In n Voti of 3 t'o 1 in FTor of the AltfrmfttlYO. The ninth successive victory In de bate for the University of Nebraska btx'ame a fact last night when the judges of the Washington-Nebraska debate cast their ballot of 2 to 1 in favor of the affirmative, which was the side upheld by Nebraska. The question debated was the same one that Iowa and Nebraska fought over and was as follows: "Resolved, That the second sentence of the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution should be repealed." The second section of the amend ment is as follows: . "Representatives shall be apportion ed among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of pcrsdns'ln each htate, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for president nnd vice president of the United States, representatives in congress, the executive and Judicial officers of the state, or .the members of the legisla ture Thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such state, being twenty-one years of age and citizens of the United States, or in any wa alrldged, except for participation in re bellion or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced In the proportion whiclr the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty one years of age In such state." Unlike the contest with Iowa uni versity last Friday night, the two teams practically agreed upon the an alysis of the question. The main bone of contention upon which the argument hinged was whether or not an educa tional qualification for voting would in the meanfng of the second 'sentence of the second soctlon of the Fourteenth Amendment be a cause for the reduc tion, of a state's representation. Wash ington held that it could not under the Fourteenth Amendment be consldeied as a denial or abridgment, while Ne braska maintained that the sentence included all denials or abridgments eave those mentioned as exceptions In , the sentence of the amendment. Washington university has, this ytar, but the one debate and with Ave months of training they were pre pared for the battle of their lives. Of the Nebraska men, each proved himself worthy of the honor that had been bestowed upon him and equal to the1 responsibility .which it carried wfth it and special commendation is due each man. The .work of the Washington de- bators was also of a very high order as Is Bhown by the closeness of the de cision. The following men upheld the affirm ative for Nebraska: John Dean Ring er, ('03, Law '05 Albert Melville Levy, '07, and Joseph Magnus Swensen, '08. . The negative was maintained for Washington by the following men: Fred "Armstrong, Jr., '03; Graham Cook Stovcns, '07, and Henry Theodore Ferris, '02 (Cornell), Law '05, The iollowlng men rendered the de cision. Professor Jesse Macy, Iowa college; Judge L. P. Davidson, Tecum Beh, and Judgo Sedgwick, of the Ne braska supreme court. GLEES LEAVE TONIGHT Y.MX.A.

A. held on Tuesday evening, the eleventh, Mr. Arthur Jergenson of Omaha, formerly of De Pauw University, was unani mously chosen to act as general sec retary for the ensuing year. The Board foeis that In securing the services of Mr. Jergenson, it has been unusually fortunate, as he comes highly recom mended in every way, by such men a3 Secretary Mayne of the Lincoln as sociation, Secretary Wade of the Omaha city association, where Mr. Jergensen is well and favorably known and state secretary J. P. Bailey. The most telling recommendations are those of the large number of Univer sity students with whom he is ac quainted, especially those from Omaha where he has lived for some years. At De Pauw university where Mr. Jorgenson has been in attendance, he lias a host of friends who are sorry to hear of his decision to leave that institution, but who are glad to hear of the honor which has been paid him by a great university. While there he was prominent in all the activities of the University and will be a strong addition to our forces. During the past year Mr. Jorgenson has held a very Important place in the Omaha association and has met with more than ordinary success. Many of the prominent association men are personally acquainted with hun and express great pleasuro that the University Y. M. C A. has secured such an able leader. April 21, 9:30 a. m.

They started out willi two runs in the first and it looked like a Bcoop-untll Doane brought In i man in the fourth. Nilsson pitched first rate throughout the game for Ne braska, striking out seven men and only giving tho visitors -three hits. Cook and Rine did star batting; Cook got three hits out of three times at bat and Rine three out of four, while the entire home team put it out of the visitors' reach thirteen times. Tho only change In the 'Varsity lineup was Bender at first base, Barta behind tho bat, and this combination worked well. Mendland, the Doane pitcher, had plenty of speed, but his' control could not compaic with his opponent's, The visitors worked hard but . Bender's bunch was too much for them and the game ended with a score of 6 td 2" In favor of the University. Delts Win. Won. Lost. P. C.
