Wisconsin looks like tho "big noise' and ought to win the moot. Minnesota Is Strong, Too In chances for winning tho team' contest 'Minnesota is conceded to stand next to Wisconsin, with, Ne braska third to tho Badgers, Chicago fourth and Washington unlvorsity fifth. Tho gophers are bolloyed to bo unusually strong this spring and re ports coming from Minneapolis add strength to this opinion. Dr. Cooke Is coaching tho Minnesota team and de clares ho has a much bettor point. winning bunch than he took to Madi son, last spring. His talk about the contest wh,en ho was in Lincoln with the gopher basket ball team in Jan uary was sanguine in its tone and in dicated he was very woll pleased with the chances ho thought his team would have against Wisconsin in the meet ing. Nebraska has a weaker team than tho ono that represented tho corn to get bettor than third place. It to go hotter than third place. It has no cinch on taking that place, either, and may bo pushed closely by Chicago in winning It. Little Is known of, tho maroonB thlsqeason, ex cept that It has been rumored they are stronger than last season or tho year before and are figuring on mak ing a good snowing in tho games at Lincoln. The cornhuskers, however, aro not worrying5 ntuch about the team contest and will not be keenly disappointed-if thoy fall below Chicago in it Their interest and greatest efforts will be centered in tho indi vidual 'contest, to the winding of which much-honor la attached.
