The Varsity baseball team arrived home Saturday evening from Its long trip of thirteen games. The team during the trip traveled about 2,500 miles. This was partly responsible for their many defeats. It Is a cinch that a lot of men can't arise at 2 a. in. and travel until 10 or 11 a. m. then play ball. It takes all the ginger out of men to lose sleep when playing hard games. Probably a coach would have kept a strict watch over the boys, and in this way aided much. The schedule for this trip consisted or hard games. It was not the In tention of the management to pick out easy teams, but Instead he sched uled the fastest baseball teams In the West. But granting this the team had no right to lose any games with the exception of Ames, Chicago and Il linois. The men went up naglnst the hardest and best twirlers that a Ne braska team has ever faced. This probabb accounts for the poor batting aerage of the team. One thing was evident that the men were unable to hit the ball at critical times. Tho team, when It left Lincoln, was one or the hardest hitting teams Nebras ka over put in the field. Following Is the batting and field ing record for tho rlp: Games. Bat. Field.

"A LIGHT IN THE DARK" 8 CONVOCATION WEDNESDAY 8 Q GIVEN BY SOPHOMORE CLASS 8 CCXXOBOCOCXXXXXXXXXXXX)COCXXXXXXX)C)OCOCOOOCXXXXXXXi FACULTY TAST. Promise to Show Commercial Men a Hot Time the 25th. The faculty under the management of Prof. Caldwell are fast rounding Into shape for the big contest with the Commercial club, May 25. The gen eral opinion of those who have seen the faculty play ball is that the Com mercial's will have to go some to land first place. Two teams have been practicing hard and the way the differ ent pitchers twist the sphere would make Rube Waddell look green with envy. The back stops are not a bit slower and can smother any kind of a ball sent over. Luckey Is tho likely man for first base as he is an old time leaguer, having played with New York Nationals. This tall gentleman with the long arms will hand a certificate to any one who knocks or throws a ball his way. Loveland will hold down second, and if unable wil be backed up by Mooie. At shortstop F. D. Heald will plant himself, and will proceed to classify every thing that comes in his territory. With Schautz, or Piper at third, Dean in centerfleld, and Holman at right field the team Is almost complete But Prof. Candy must not be forgotten as he Is to romp In the left garden. A straight line being the shortest dis tance between two points, Candy will play In direct line with the home plate, and he promises that no obtuse angles will be allowed. These men will be well backed by many others, and tho prospects are exceeding!) bright for a neat sum to turn over to tho College Settlement benefit. Tho lineup of the two teams as they practice is as follows: " 1ST TEAM 2ND TEAM. Pitcher Perslnger, Heald.. Condra, Fogg- Catch. Piper, Schoutz Payne, Clapp First Base, Luckey Clements, Pnpije. Second Base. Loveland Moore Short Stop. Heald, F. D Heald, W. Third Buse. Schoutz, Piper Hlmman Left Field. Candy, Perslng Smith, H. R. Center Field. Dean Evans Right Field. Holman Barker Awards to Arrive Soon. The awards from the St. Louis Ex position management, due to tho Women's Clubs of Nebraska and to the contributors of the educational, mining, and agricultural exhibits, can, according to notice received by the Dopartmen of Geology a few days be expected any time. It Is probable, however, that they will not arrive for Nebraska contributors. Though a large majority of these are silver, yet a goodly number of, gold medals stand To Nebraska's credit. The manage ment of the exposition is attempting to get all of tho awards out within eight months after the close of the Exposition, whereas the management of the Columbia Exposition was unable to accomplish this in less than a year.

The two games of baseball schedul ed with Washburn for today and to morrow have been called off by the Kansas college. Several of the games which composed their northern sched ule were canceled and they could not afford to make the long Jump neces sary to play the two games with the Varsity. Added to this cancellation of games, Wnshburn has been having some trou ble with their players, tho faculty, having ruled that a number of them could not continue on tho Varsity. A game for tomorrow will be ar ranged If possible with somo team representing some nearby townr Junior Play. The play given iy the Juniors at Convocation yesterday proved to be very successful. Although only a short time was put on the preparation of the play the smoothness with which it went off would have reflected credit on a cast with much more practice. The play entitled "The Irish Linen Poddlarwas a farce "of three short acts. Every member of the cast handled his, part skillfully.
