Some Features the Best Yet Other Portions of the Book Only Medi ocre On 8ale at 11 a. m. The long expected and much vaunted Sombrero has at last been presented to the public. On the wholo It Is" one of the most representative University annuals over put out here. The edi tors and managers on account of the long "graft" agitation were put severe ly to the test and one feels in view of -the excellence of the book, that If there Is any bonus they deserve It. The editors" aimed to make tho book one which would stand for the best of every phase of college life, and In a groat measure they succeeded, for be side tho printed representation, tlo get-up" of tho book Itself shows consid erable ability and a great deal of pains taking work. The cover Is tho best which has ver been put upon a Nebraska publi cation, In neatness, quality, and dura bility. Its novelty and simplicity are a decided rellof from tho cloth bound books of tho past with tho inevitable and usually Inartistic designs. Tho first fifty pages aro filled with general information about the University, tho section of tho book which Is con scientiously skipped tho first day and not fully appreciated until a few days' or weeks after tho first reading. It Is good and Qlled with "tho things wq all want to know" but necessarily .stereotyped. It contains a list of tho members of the Instructing body with a short history of tho professional life of many of the most prominent members of tho faculty. Then follows a short description of tho University proper and all or its branches. Hero tho State Farm receives undue promi nence, as It usually does. Tho class representation Is about as usual. The Law section is headed with an excellent article by Dr. Pound. The arrangement of .tho Individual pic tures and the character of tho write ups, both here and In tho Junior class proper aro a decided disappointment, Tho write-ups are trlto and don't "offer much in either Information or humor and tho pictures are Just as thoy al ways have been both In style and ar rangement. One lonely Wesleyah Junior will bo rather surprised to find that he is a student at "tho State." Ti. general class representation lsvery good. The department of athletics is oxcellont. The pictures and write ups aro good and the kodak -features are especially attractive. Tho literary department as such is almost absent. It Is not dignified with a title page and consists of only one story and a few verses. The excellent articles on various subjects of University Interest which are scattered through the book almost make up for- this deficiency however. Thoy aro all snappy and to tho point. It is on the wholo a very good thing (hat a little admonition about "getting sore" was" put on the second page of the josh department. Many of the jpkes are extremely Cleveland almost' all are apt, but the cudgels are COLORADO ' " ' ' " '" ' " " " V -- .iii. . .. DIAL TRACK MEET STATE f AIR GROUNDS, SATURDAV 2:30 O'CLOCK P.M. OOOOOCXXOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOCXDCKXXXXXXXIOO wielded even more vigorously than In the" Senior Book. Tho faculty roasts in tho latter are certainly avenged by tho wholesale slaughter of tho Seniors upon tho pages of tho Sombrero. Some of tho joshes aro unnecessarily bitter and there is quite a little "padding" but on tho other hand many long felt wants aro filled. Tho cartoons aro very few In numher and aro perhaps tho weakest feature. Altogether, tho book Is unusually good. Tho best things about It aro its splendid "get up," the title pages and full page drawings by HarrlBon and Hadloy and tho snap shots taken on tho campus. Latin Club. Tho last meeting of the Latin Club for this semester was held Tuesday evening In the parlors of tho Woman's University building. After some pre liminary business, an interesting pro gram was given. Miss' Alleno Mc Eachron read a moBt creditable paper on. the "Roman Games." A short dis cussion and comment bj Professor Barber followed. Tho next number was a paper by Mr. Arthur Marsh on "Current Events." Mr. Marsh was unable to bo present and his paper was read by Mr. Frank Peterson. Tho most important number on the program was the' report by Professor Barber of tho recent classical confer ence In Chicago, May 6 and 7. Pro fessor Barber was one of flfo leading movorB at tho conference. A national organization was offected to which be long many teachers of Greek and Latin from about twenty-two states. Professor Barber's report was very Interesting and much enjoyed by all. 8enlor-Junlor Game, The first game among tho academic class baseball teams will bo played at 2 p. m. today on .the campus, between the Seniors and Juniors.

Manning won tho 440 and gavo BurresB tho raco of his life for first place in tho 220. Those mon, backed by Wallaco, should give any other trio of University sprinters In the Wost a good raco for first honors. States ran his usual raco in the mile, and carried off first placo with comparative ease. Havens was the best In tho two-mllo, although tho raco was not run as fast as ho usually runs.
