With tho Initiation and advance mont Thursday ovening of nino mem bers tho Som. Dot. of tho university took in its twenty-third class of uni versity students connected with . tho botanical department This organiza tion, which hnB flourished nt Nebras ka for nearly n quarter of a century, is the only one of its kind in tho country. No other university hns a society which combines tho educa tional character with tho grotesque noss and tho good-fellowship hucIi as Is had In Nebraska's Seni. Dot. Tho membors' enrolled or advanced Thursday aro as follows: In the do greo ordlnnrri J. W. Roberts, Miss Pool, C. R. Tlllotson. In tho degree enndidati O. N. Lamb, P. W. Huff man, U. B. Stone and Miss Ingram. In the degree novitli Miss Wndoll, C. E. Tomplo. Somo of these have been members of the organization prior to Thursday, but at that time thoy were elovnted to degrees higher than they hnd heretofore held. All Had Pie. te.Tho initiation ceremonies wore con ducted by Lord Warden Pool. Tho featuro of tho nffair was tho pie-eat-lug contest, won by G. N. Lamb. This institution Js ono peculiar to Som. Dot. and dates from tho organization of the society. The Som. Dot. Ib in all Us forms a secret organization, but Ms whole pur pose Is work. It was founded nventy threo yoarB ago by seven Nubmskii men, overy one of whom is now iv ognized as a leading botanist in the Institution, whore he Is at work. At that mooting Roscoo Pound, who haB mince become one of tho most dis tinguished graduates of the univer sity, was tho youngest man present, it wob ho who was delegated by tho ocecoffiOffiOffOQcosoosooooooeooooooocoffiOffi ULTRA RNATE f AS II I ON ABLE PHI (i OOO0O0KOOOOO&OOOSO0OOOOK otliorB present to go down town and purchaso pies for the crowd. Begin ning with this Incident the famous "pie" of Sem. Bot. had Its start. At overy initiation Blnce that time, plo has hoon tho only refreshment served. It Is ono, of tho things which gives grotesquensss to this organization, marking it apart from all others. Let the Ladles In. In 1900 tho society was thrown open to tho girls onrolled in tho hotnnnical courses, previous to which tlmo thoy had not heon admitted. Tho socloty meets every two weeks for tho dis cussion of botnnnjcal subjects. It has no constitution save nn unwrltte i one, but tho laws "of its tradition have proven sufficient government for its entire oxlstcnco. Tho largest work undertaken by Iho bot. som. was tho publication of the' flora of Nebraska, in eight volumes. TIiIb task is not yet entirely complete. It is a work of great value to students and to tho farmers, of the state. In addition to this, tho society ha pub lished a considerable number of other works, including numerous paninhlatR In 1904 Dr. F. E, Clements, w Ne braska graduate and a loyal member nof ttho hot, som., endeavored to start a similar organization nt Minnesota,, at which school he is head of the botanical department., Tho 'attempt proved unsuccessful," however, al though Dr, Clomonts has not yet Kivon up hopo of securing a start later. Tho society seems to exist at Ne braska from somo peculiar condlllon which does not appear In other Insti tutions.

(Continued from Page l) the Kansas team will cop the pennant this year. .Tho Jayhawkers have lost but ono game In the southern divi sion, winning the championship easily. Nebraska had n hard time copping tho rag in the northern section and therofore Kansas looks strong. Kan sas defeated the Cornhuskers by good scores in exhibition games and this, too, makes the .Tnyhawkors rule fa vorites for the championship series. Coach Allen wat more worried about the games with Washington and Mis souri thnn with Nebraska. He bo llevos tho team will win easier than In tho fight for the championship of the southern division.
