Ffjr Iho first timo this season tho
Student body will have a chance to
see tho varsity baseball team in ac
tion. This is tho first gamo of tho
Reason on tho homo grounds, and tho
Cotncr collegians aro to bo tho vic
tim's. Coach Carroll has been point
lng his men for this contest and tho
gamo. promises to bo warm and fast,
as the collegians have a strong aggre
gation and want to add the scalps of
Iho Cornhuskcrs to their present col
lection. Next Tuesday tho Highland Park
boys como for ono gamo, and tho
stenographers aro reputed to havo
ono of tho fastest aggregations In tho
city bf Des Moines. They havo al
ways given tho Cornhusker nino a
hard' fight in gamos in provious years,
and this year they aro planning to
show up as well hero as thoy havo
heretofore.
The freshmen havo a good strong
aggregation to meet next Thursday,
when they meet tho Bellevue boys on
the athletic field. The Presbyterians
have ono of tho best collego toams In
tho Btato and they oxpe!t to win tho
college championship of tho stato in
baseball this season.
Kansas Peevish.
The baseball situation regarding tho
eligibility of a large number of tho
men of tho various teams of tho Mis
souri Valley conforenco still remains
problematical. A recent communica
tion from W. C. Lansdon, genoral
manager of athletics at the University
of Kansas, shows where Kansas stands
on the eligibility matter. For tho
paBt few ydars Kansas and Nebraska
havo stood sido by side on all matters
Relating to athletics In the Missouri
Valley conference. This year when
Nebraska refuges to certify that her
men havo played summer baseball,
Kansas refuses to certify to her play
ers. Tho action on the summer base
ball matter Is ono which has caused
considerable comment, but which It is
hoped will not Injuro the athletic re
lations of tho two schools.
In his letter to tho Dally Nobraskan
Mr. Lanedcn states that Gibbs and
Hoffman have both graduated from tho
university and that Harlan is at pres
ent paid ccach df tho freshman team
at K. U. Regarding the other four
men of the Jayhawker team, ho states
that tho men are strictly amateurs.
no bf those men Sevin, It is admit-
played with tho Union Club of
Kansas City, Kan., but that ho played
with' Ihirl&lovenH rluh of that, citv is
denlpa: .Regarding tho standing of
SevliTnncf HoIzer. who Kansns says
is purely an amateur, no absolute proof
can ho produced that these men have
played summer ball. Information was
furnished the Nebraska management
Ihat Sevin played with the Steven6
club and this information was given
by a Manhattan graduate. This man
stated' 'that he knew Sevin and saw
nlm play with that team last sum
mer. ' .
The close connection betweeri K. U
Snd, Manhattan is. one which would
give reliability to tho statements of

the Manhattan man, as ho would bo
in a position to know. Regarding tho
standing cf the other men, no abso
lute proof can bo given as the men as
a rule play under assumed names,!
and thus tho trackB are well covered.
Rockefeller it is claimed played no,
summer baseball last year, but only
played in college. Tho result of tho
mixup it is felt will not cause any
uBiiuuKuuii'ui in mo aiuieuc reunions

who called tho corporal of tho guard
to back him up. The corpdral an
nounced that a commissioned officer
would havo to take him in. Not be
ing particularly acquainted with niiy
commissioned officer noar, it. turned
as if tho reporter was doomed to stay
on tho outside. But just then ho spied,
a sergeant and beckoning to him
asked if ho couldn't tdko aforesaid re
porter in. The sergoant drow himself
up to Ms run six root pius ana or
dered tho corporal to lot tho gentle
man in. Tho corporal was suspicious,
but tho sergeant Insisted hd was -ft

got in.

Extremely Cold.
The first night was extremely cdld,
and most of tho cadets say thoy slept .
but little. They mado campflres be
tween the tents to keep themselves
warm. This night some of tho univer
sity mon who are in tho camri gat Out
and attempted to sneak In after taps.
Tho sentry spied them and called on
I them to halt, but thoy refused So. he
ran after them, after ho had called
for tho corporalof the guard.. The
men eventually escaped, tho sentry
being weighted down by an '.overcoat
and his gun. They say they entered
later at a different place. ' 'l
Thd' wind Thursday night caused
good deal of trouble: The quarter
master bad a' refreshment starid-j is
one of tho tents and his tent blew
down and the pop and fruit had td'be
hurriedly removed to a safer place.
On tho whole, however, the cam was
a very quiet on 6. The' cadets Jbrok

Insubordination. '
It was reported that como of the
cadets b'ecamo unruly, when camp bet

no longer under the necessity of obey

did most of the work of tearing dowa
the camp. Some punishment will
doubtless be meted out td Ue most
serious offenders. - t
