DANCING 8.30 Si
Track News.
Tho fact that Nobraska will send
a track team to tho conference moot
at Chicago has caused renewed en
thusiasm by all candidates. The pre
liminaries last Saturday brought 'out
many new men, but the class meet of
next Saturday promises to furnish
some keen competition and It would
not bo surprising to Beo some moro
records broken. From present indi
cations tho Sophomores will carry off
the honors Saturday, for they will bo
represented by. some strong men In
Meyer, McDonald, Weller, Bowman,
Craig, Copeland, Smith, Manning,
Havens, and Hauser. The Freshmen
will have some strong men and should
at least land second place. Some of
the most prominent men of this class
are: Burruss, Wallace, Davis, Cornell
and Peck.
The damp weather this week will
prevent the men who participated In
last Saturday's meet from making
much Improvement, but tho men out
for the first time this year will get a
chance to show what they can do.
Among these will bo Manning, States
and Haven. Manning Is well re
membered by tho track enthusiasts
from his remarkable performances In
tho dashes two years ago. States
has been a mombor of, tho team ever
since he entered the University, and
many times he has added five points
to our score. Iast year ho found a
good running mate In Havens, whose
performances In the" Minnesota meet
and at Chicago aro sufficient testimony
as to his worth. With these men, and
the all ready fast team Nebraska
should not take a back soat for uny
one In track athletics.

given way to tho Annual May Outing.
Yesterday morning the Seniors de
cided that their day of rest this year

For tho Senior Play committee
Chairman Ramsey roportod consider
able progress. The date for tho play
has practically boon decided upon for
Monday ovoning of Commencement
week. Tho concert to have been given
by tho University chorus on that
night has been changed to a later
time. Inability to eecuro tho Oliver
at a more suitable time caused tho
committeo to decide upon Monday
evening.
Tho Senior song, original in both
words and music, will bo printed and
distributed to each member of tho
class the first of tho coming wee'k, and
it is desired that tho SoniorB familiar
ize themselves with tho song as soon
as possible.
Progressing 8lowly.
Owing to the Inclomency of tho
weather tho tennis tournament Is not
progressing very rapidly. As yet but
two matches have been played, and
ono of these was won by default. Read
defeated Sherlock In two straight sets
by tho scores of G-l, 0-1. Sunderland
won his match with- Geer by default -The
other matches will bo played off
very quickly "as soon as the weather
permits.
As the University is to be ropre-
scnted by a team against Minnesota In
the 20th of this, monthj It la neces
sary that the team be chosen early so
they can practice together. Tho var
sity players, Cassady and Scrlbnor, of
last year, are out and aro possible
representatives- again. But thero may
be surprises in store for tho old play
ers, as there aro so many new men
