Foster, comes to us very highly recommended and with a most opvlable record. Mr. Foster Is" a graduate of Dartmouth, Class of 1904. While in college he took part in almost every branch of athletics. Ho was fullback on the 'varsity football team and was named by several-eastern authorities for the All-Amerlcan team. He was captain of-l Dartmouth's basket-ball team ' Hi 903, and admittedly one of the best playy ers In Now England. , Besides this, ho did much work In track athletics, base ball, and gymnastics and knows- these branches of athletics, thoroly. Not withstanding, the great amount of time demanded by his athletics, Mr. Foster made a most excellent record in his college work, standing high as a scholar. Ho was prbmlnent In col lege life, having been a1 member of the college senate and president of -his- class. Also, Mr. Foster belonged to the Theta Dolfii Chi fraternity and was a member of tho order of Casque and Gauntlet, an honorary Senior so ciety.

Hls-work as coach at Cincinnati was praised most enthusiastically and It was with great rqgret that they let him go. While It is premature to speak of Mr. Foster as coach here, his work has already excited very favorable com ment nnd he has created a most fa forable impression among both play ers and students.

What tho Intercollegiate dobafn pro gram for 1906-1907 will bo is as yet uncertain for the University of No braskn as well aff for tho othor uni versities In tho now debato loague formed last sprihg (the Central De bating Circuit of Amorlca) Wiscon sin, Minnesota, Illinois nnd Iowa. Tho uncertainty arlaos from tho inability of tho five Institutions to agree so far on a dato for tho five debates. All the llvo debates are to bo on the riamo question and arc to take place on the same evening WIsconsIn-Nobraska at Lincoln, Nebraska-Illinois at Urbann, Minnesota-Iowa at Iowa City, Iowa Wlscortsln at Madison, and Illinois Minnesota at Minneapolis. For Wis consin, Minnesota, Illinois, and Iowu. Friday evening, Fobruary K3,HeomH to be tho only convenient clnte, but on that date Nebraska cannot entertain Wisconsin here because tho Mid-Winter and Charter Day exercises are hold that ovenlng. Nebraska has urgod a later dato for the additional reason that to hold tho debates oarly in Fob ruary Is to put them too closo to tlib somostor examinations. Aftor this year, however, the league debates -will bo held tho Friday ovenlng In Decern- -bor before tho Christmas recess. What tho outcomo of the presont dls- agreement over dates will be, it is impossible to say. The contests may, be held on February 22 or March 1. In any event, however, Wisconsin and Nebraska will debato at Lincoln. With tho oxceptlon of tho date, tho arrangements for tho league contests are practically complete. On tho constitution representatives of the universities worked during tho summer, the burden of the correspond ence being taken by Prof. E. E. Mc Dermott of Minnesota. Among the provisions of the constitution nro tho following: .. v 1. Each -university must create- a debating board, a majority of whose members shall be of, the faculty. Iu organizing suchn bpard Nebraska took,, the initiative, In tho West flVp years"" ago at tho instanco of student mom-; bors of tho Debating Association. -Two- of the other universities In tho league declined, to enter it unless such boards dispatched the business of the league. , 2. The judges of any debato aro se lected from lists submitted by tho universities of the states contiguous to tho state In which the debate is held, but not from a list submitted by a university participating In tho de bate. For Instance, judges for the No'-" braska-WIsconsln debate ,at Lincoln will come from list submitted by Iowa. 3, Each judge shall be Instructed to decide for himself what constitutes effective debate, except tliat hoshai consider both thought and del Ivory jy .He shall vote, .without cpnsultntionon the merits of tho debate, pot the merits ' ui uiu queaiiuu, ( 4, All private - correspondent co and j ';.( Continued' m Pago 3.) ;-a X V N.
