Apiece Selection Satisfactory
f'tTho following is. the Uno-up for an
all-class team which has boon picked
fay Coach Poster and "Tow" Cotton.
The selection was; made wholly upon
the appearance of the men In the
fcames played and. no man's possibili
ties were taken into conslderatldn.
.Both Foster and Cotton were present
at fcll the games pjayod in tho capacity
6f officials, and had ample opportunity
$ Judge at closo range. Whllo such
a 'selection is to some extent a matter
of opinion only, it is not fair to say
positively that these .men arotho best
In the-lnterclass league. It is safe to
say, ,. however, that, a bettor aggrega
tion would bo exceedingly hard to
pickf
LofTEnr-Bentley: ...... T. .Freshman
Left TackleHart .Freshman
Loft Guard. Frazier .Senior
Center Ferris .....- Freshman.
Right Guard Jenkins -Senior
Bight Tackle McLaughlin Junior
Right felnd Butler Senior
Left Half Arnold Freshman
Right Half Howard .'Senior
Quarterback BelL Sophpmpre:
Fullback Beltzer Freshman
The Freshman team heads tho list
with five men; tho Seniors are next
With four, and the Juniors and Sopho
mores follow with one man apiece.
An unusually strong back field Is
one feature of the" toam as selected.
Boll, the little Sophomore quarterback,
is quiet and heady, running his team
in a consistent manner and always
keeping a cool head. Arnold, the
Freshman halfback and one" of their
favorites, showod by his work in both
games that ho know tho game from
the ground up. With Beltzer, the
Freshman fullback to buck tho line
and Howard, the Senior fullback, to
boot the ball when it was in danger, It
Js evident that a strong combination
would be effected.
Ferris, .the two hundred and forty
pound center, is alone in his class,
and will make good 'Varsity material
nex season, and with Jenkins on ono
side and Frazier on tho' other it would
:tako d pretty hard buck to jar the
center of the line.
, Hart, tho Freshman, who Is placed
at left tackle, has showed up" promts--Ingly
during the past -season In his
brilliant work with the scrubs, and will
"stand a good show for 'Varsity Honors
next fall. , "Chick" McLaughlin, the
other tackle, has played on his class
team for three years, and his work is
too well, known to need further com
ment. " With Butler and Bentloy at the ends
it "would -be hard to. pick a -more
speedy, surer set of runners and
tackles. They play a brilliant game,
making 'good, gains consistently and
bringing down their men without fail.

some of the leaguo ' universities to
change tho statement ofO.h.e question
so that the afflrmatlvo will be obliged
to upholdnot only private ownership,
but also private operation, thus prob
ably giving tho negative the broad
ground of maintaining any proposition
which does not involve both of these

the street railway problem thru private
ownership.

Maxey are .glad to learn, that the' Jap
anese of the city of San Francisco have

Tho chairman of tho Junior Prom
committee has announced a new sys
tem of ticket soiling for tho Junior
Prom, which is sched.ulod to occur-' on
tho evening of Friday, February 8,
1907. Tho hew schemo Is designed, to
forco tho advance salo of tickots for
tho danco in order that the commltteo
in chargo may know definitely how to
conduct tho financial end of tho func
tion. Tho plan as it stands at presont is to
sell tickots to tho danco' f or $2.50 for
a jperlpd of two weeks, beginning on
Monday, -January 21, and continuing
up to, and including, Monday, Febru
ary 4. 'At this timo tho prlco for

chasers, with the slnglo exception of
thoso aluuinl who are non-residonta.
of Lincoln and cannot purchase their,
tickots within the specified tlm.e. ljmlt.
As has been statod, tiio Innovation
Is for tho purpose of allowing the
committee in chargo to tho Prom to
know with a fair dogroe. of. accuracy
just hbw much it will have -to upend
on the dance, sovoral days before the
function is duo. It is planned to put
every cent received from tho salo of
tickets back into tho appointments of
tho dance and in this way, moro than
ovorbeforo, give patrons .the "full,
worth of their money.
Tho Prom is to bo held in tho Lin
coin Hotel and is to be, as usual, ono
of tho two formal affairs of tho year'
in University clrclos. Walt'sfull' or
chostra of seven pieces will rendor tho
music for tho ovoning "and'it is an-
nounced that decorations and refresh
ments w.JU bo of tho very best, ,'. '
Orders for tickots given to any mem
ber of tho Prom committee 'betwoon
this date and the day tho tlokets first
go on salo will bo filled in the ordorin
which they are received. It is ox
pocted that tho safe of tickets this
year will be unusually large and it may
be found necessary to .restrict tho num
ber fold. To avoid difficulty in this
respoct, tho committee urges that or
ders be handed in at the earliest pos
sible date.
