A diffor onco In tho plan of study nnd instruc tion may bo tho cause for the scorning superiority of tho oaBtorn to the west orn collego man In accomplishing mon tal work, whilo the latter probably is really tho equal of tho other studont. Tho Nobraska professor's uttoranco probably, was a sincere statomont, but it undoubtedly would havo been more just to ,havo said that tho eastern man 1b a bettor student on some occas ions than tho western collegian.

Tho maroon ox-captain was tho best hurdlor and sprinter Stagg had tor his Indoor team, and tho loss will be a heavy one. Tho maroon coach, sinco Steffen's withdrawal, haB not n single candidate of ability for tho sprints. In tho hurdles, howovor, Steffen's plnce will bo filled by Crowley, tho varsity right half back. Steffen's Action a Surprise. Stoffon's action caino aB a big sur prise, as It was known thnt a month ago ho looked forward to tho Indoor season with considerable enthusiasm. In addition to hlB track work, ho ox pected to mnko a try for tho basket ball team In tho hopes of adding an other "('" to his list. Ho haB the var sity lottor now in two branches of sport football and track nthlotlcs. Coupled with tho announcement of Steffen's wlthdrawnl came word that Dogonhnrdt, tho star freshman high jumper of Inst yonr, had not returned to Bchool and would not join tho team thlB winter. Degonhardt has a record of close to six foot and wnB considered ono of tho pillars of the tonm. Ho was to havo taken Schommer's place In tho high jump.
