GOPHERS RUN IN SIOMI XI ELECTS BAND INFORMAL I JP K id k (W MADE TO HUNT THEIR PLACE8 OF REFUGE BY CORNHU8KER8. Nebraska Wins Close and Exciting Track Meet Morgan and Alden Break Two Records. Twice in one week the Cornhuskers have triumphed over their big north ern rival, Minnesota. On Thursday Nebraska's baseball men vanquished them by the score of 8-7, and Satur day the track team continued the gal lant work, winning a dual meet from them hy the score of 54 to 44. The track meet was hotly contested, and had it not been for Nebraska grit the Gophers would doubtlesB have won. Minnesota took a big lead at the first, the score being at one time 17 to 4 in her favor. The fine work of the distance men was largely re sponsible for overcoming this lead and this, combined with the uniform good work of the team as a whole, pulled out the meet for Nebraska. The day was cold and a brisk breeze was blowing straight against the sprinters and hurdlers, which naturally slowed the time In these events. The attendance was very light, there being scarcely a hundred spectators In the grand stand. Lack of enthusiasm was very evident and was quite surprising, considering the splendid facilities Minnesota has for track nthletics. The track -was in splendid condition and the men of the team agree that it Is the best track they over "touched." Minnesota started by taking first in the high hurdles, first and second, in the discus, and first in the hundred yards.' At this juncture things looked rather black for Nebraska, but the hopeB of the Cornhuskers were much revived by the fine work of their men in the half-mile, Benedict, Morgan and Thlesen finishing in the order named and winning without being compelled to exert themselves to their utmost. In the1 mean time, Mr. Martin and "Mr. MacDonald had beaten out their Minnesota opponent in the pole vault, thus securing seven more points for Nebraska: Weller had won the shot put and taken second in the hammer throw, thus holding the Gophers even in those 'events. In the quarter-mile Benedict, aljtho ho had Just won the half, took second by a plucky sprint Knode and Burruss added six points in the hfgh jump and things were al most even again. But Nebraska had not yet played her best cards. Morgan won the mile in rectfrd-breaking time, and Davis shut Minnesota out of a second. Perry won first in the running broad with a pretty jump of practically 21 feet, and Alden broke another record in the two-mile- run, Bauman taking 'second In the pjucklest kind of a way. He ran practically half the race on his nerve and had to be carried off the field. Besides this, Burruss gave Dougherty a pretty race In the two twenty and scored Cw'o points more for Nebraska, while McDonald lost out In the 220-yard hurdles thru a piece of " (Continued on -page 3.)

In each course a full semester's work will be given, two recitations being devoted to each subject dally. 'Many pupils who find that their courses are somewhat irregular, may by availing themselves of this opportunity arrange their work In a more satisfactory man ner. Pupils in small high schools, where the laboratory equipment is de fective, may thus enjoy superior train ing In the sciences duirng the summer. As a rule pupils will be limited to one course. Only exceptional students who are especially recommended by their former teachers or their princi pal will be permitted to take two courses.

In tho former, however, the basis of election Is not merely the quality of grades attained, hut the promise given by the student of future achievement along scientific lines. Candidates are recommended by the faculty. A preliminary list of those recommended Is made up first and later tho members, are selected by the committee elected for the .pur pose. In this year's group there wore twonty-ono to whom was given thla honor. Four of these wore women and seventeen men.
