If Nobraska cannot boast of Su premacy in any othor lino it can at least tako first prlzo for having the most changoablo weather of any school In tho country. It would bo almoBt impossiblo to concolvo of throo days with grdator variations in torn . peraturo than havo characterized tho last throo. To bo safo, students in the future had bettor bring with thorn whon thoy como in tho morning their heaviest winter overcoats togother with their summer wraps and such incidentals as umbrellas and rain coats. SHOULD BE A 8UCCE88. At a, meeting of tho tennis associ ation this morning plans will bo made for tho coming soason and questions of importance to thoBo Interested in the game will bo discussed. Tennis has never in tho past had a position at Nebraska at all in keeping with Its Importance as a sport and ovon Its very existence haB boon duo to tho interest of a fow enthusiasts, who, THE 8AME OLD 8TORY. If anyono wore dopendont upon the nowspapors of tho stato for his in formation about tho University of No braska ho would most certainly havo a vqry poculiar and grotosquo concep tion pf, tho state's largest institution and would bo Justified in wondering if tho university roally gavo adequato roturns for its tromondous cost. Tho nowspapors of tho stato havo porslst- ontly In tho past and still do givo spaco In thoir papors to every scandal and sensational story about tho uni versity that thoy can lay their hands upon. Tho damago which this doeB, not only to tho university, but indirectly to tho state as well, Is enormous. 'It moans that tho pooplo of the stato aro getting an "ontlroly wrong Im pression of what hlghor oducatlon means and Btands for In this stato. It moans that pooplo who havo no way of knowing tho truth except through what thoy read In the news papers aro constantly having painted for thom a plcturo that is not at all true to the facts. Tho Daily Nobraskan appreciates as well as anyono can who haB tho problom overy day of filling tho col umns of a newspaper whon news Is so scarco that it causoB a sensation whon over anything Is found that makes a good story that it 1b a very valu able thing and something to bo carefully cherished.

If you want to be right see me, I know. through their enthusiasm, havo boon ablo to keep up a certain amount of interest in tho gamo. Tennis is a gamo that appeals to a much larger class of students than almoat any othor form of inter-col-Jegiato athletics for tho reason that it does not make such a severe tax upon tho physical endurance of tho player as othor sports and can bo thoroughly enjoyed even If tho player cannot devote enough timo to it to be come an export It 1b a branch of ath letics that has been .almost entirely neglected at Nebraska and one that doserves to stand in the forefront of all college sports. At other western colleges tennis oc cupies a place among those coljogo athletics that attract the attention of tho students through tho honor that attaches to tho successful player. 'Michigan gives silver watch fobs to the winners of tho tennis tournament and sends the .school team on long trips. '' It would be a great benefit to yery, side of Nebraska athletics if LBUU1B VUUUl UU UUVOIUJJUU UVUV, BU Wthat it would occupy tho place that 'iltaaturally deserves. r It is to , bo hoped that the tennis assocltaton will be successful In developing some plan whersbjruit .will be possible (6 arouse a reaVanddeen; interest in 'the "game at Nebraska. Tho university courts tho fullest publicity and is only too glad to have ovoryono who finds it possible, visit tho school and see everything exactly as It Is, but it most strenuously ob jects to the kind of publicity that most of tho papers of the state delight to givo it So long as little elso than baseless scandals find their way Into papers of tho stato It cannot bo ex pected that either tho people of the stato or their representatives in the legislature will have a correct idea of tho work that tho university is do ing. Chancellor Avery has suggested that a bureau be established to givo 'out all information concerning tho university. This is an idea that has tho promise of doing an Invaluable amount of good to the university, and it is to be hoped that it will be put into successful execution. With such a burdau as rthis In actual operation it would be possible for those papers that desired to print the truth to havo a simple method of determining what was authentic. It would also give a greater 'opportunity for the legitimate publicity of university news. This method of promoting knowl edge of' tho doings of tho ' university has been and is now in actual oper ation 'in several western universities.
