GIRL8' BA8KET-BALL. The publication as nnnounced by the University Publishing Company of tho Collegiate DaBket-Ball RuIcb for women, as formulated by tho Rules Committee consisting of heads of tho departments of physical education of the various institutions of tho middle weBt and the editors and compilers, Mrs. ft. O. Clapp, and MIbb Louise Pound of tho University of Nebraska, who wero reBponsiblo for the confer ence leading to tho formation of tho rules. According to the preface tho rules are moant for tho many teams wlshirfg a game not quite so swift, or so taxing on the players, as the men's game, yot enabling tho team develop ment and concerted play of tho lattor, as the Held line games does not. Thero Ib ample room for both games; in fact "Throughout the country three styles lot rielthof short dor limited. Among tho players, by (his time a very great num ber, who, during twelve years, havo playod on tho various regular teams in the University of Nebraska, In all sorts of contests, pfacticc;inter-clasB, in tor-col logiate, not ono player has over beon seriously hurt or injured not even by a serioiis sprain; certainly none have over been "overtaxed" or Buffered harm from "over-excitement." A canvass of tho names of tho players during theBo twelve years, and their records on and after leaving school, renders wholly absurd the hypothesis that girls cannot safely play basket ball; or saiely play it without (he re stricting field divisions. In general as regards the possible benefit or tho possible harmfulness of the game of women's basket-ball to the players, tho editors fool convinced that much moro depends on careful supervision of the games, and the careful preliminary ex amination of those who seek to be allowed to play, than depends on the particular kind of rulcB by which the ploy may be governed. Male students of Chicago Universi ty recently petitioned one of tho fn Btructors asking for the removal of picture hats from the clasB rooms. It seems that the boys wore unabib to follow demonstrations on tho black boards because of these monstrous af fairs, and a number failod, duo, of course to the Inconvenience. Presi dent Judson is now investigating tho possibility of a further enlargement in hats and unleBB proBpocts point to more conservative styles will recom mend that the ladies removo their hats in class. Needless to say these rules were compiled and edited before the persis tent campaign of the Dean of Women seemed Jy a sudden and unexpected Btroke to havo crowned Itself with success. Girls' basket-ball without a first team will be as dead here as in other Bchools which havo none; or as men's football would become, wore there no first team aB a center of in terest and goal for tho players, and no contests. Ttyo girl's team at Nebras ka has always been ono of tho best connected with University life; and its record for scholarship, to judge by the list of honors achieved, has been more brilliant than that of many other organizations in school. Girls who havo made the team have always looked back on their evperlence on it as one of the most valuable features of their school life. The team frequent ly playe'd but one game a year out sldo of Lincoln, and to play this game has been absent but one day from school. Instead of being harmed physi cally or morally by this game, the Sophomore Notes. The sophbmoro class voted at their last meeting to assess each niombor 6f the class fifteen cents to go to tho Ivy Day fund. Each of tho claBsos are contributing to this and tho sophomore class should not bo behind. This mon ey must bo in by May 1. So it is hoped that each member of tho class will pay up promptly when asked to do"so by some of the committeo this week. Each man, when ho pays will bo given a ticket and he cannot got any of tho feed on Ivy Day without this ticket. Let us all, then, help the committee and boost Ivy Day by paying tho tlf teen cents promptly when asked. r-i RESULTS TfelL!

If fy Is very wrong for the girls to go away on basket-ball trips why is Mrs. Clapp so in favor of It? Her testimony on .the health "side at least Is 06114115 strong. Of course the desire to win sometimes carries these things beyond reason, but the record of Nebraska's department is nothing of the sort, As tho leaUer among western institutions its policy will determine the fate of athletic con tests for women.
