"JAR LOOSE."
Ivy day came once before, but the
rain came too, and there waB no Ivy
day. But whether rain or Bhlne, the
Ivy day is to bo a reality next Satur
day. The delay has caused an unex
pected expense and the committee Is
In doubt a's to the financial success of
the affair. Admission will be charged
to the evening exercises only. But
there Is no reason why any one should
bo present In the morning and stay
away In the evening because of this
fact. Each will get his money's worth,
' f
letea; if the accusations fall for want
of proof, the one who has made them
will have taken unto himself a re
proach that will follow wherever he
may go. He will lose forever the re
spect of Nebraska men and women. It
is certain that at least one or two men
within our midst will suffer. But
more than that, the good name of our
institution 1b to be maligned. No mat
ter what the result may be, there are
those who will always believe the
worst though the best be proved be
yond the shadow of a doubt.
But one thing is certain and that is
thnt those who have been so bold In
their statements owe it to the univer
sity to file their charges in the proper
form so that some action may be
taken. If these men have reasonable
grounds for their beliefs and are con
scientious, they will doubtless ask for
an investigation. Such a tblng is not
pleasant or desirable In all cases. But
if it must come, it must, and the soon
er it is over the better. It will either
show the world that athleticB at the
University of Nebraska are clean or
that the principles for which she
stands are above reproach.

The victor acted very magnanimous

bestow one of the pennies upon him.
On account of which the Slg Alfs have
decided not to protest the game.
8MALL PER CENT PAY DUE8.
The Missouri Valley high school
meet brought out two young Nebraska
athleteB of which we have a good right
to be proud. Wood of Omaha and
Wiley of York did their events In col
lege style. On that same day a num
ber of college meets were held
throughout the United States, and In
only one, was Wiley's feat In the
broad jump surpassed, when Cham
plln of Syracuse made 22 feet and 4
Inches against Michigan. His high
Jump record was not equaled. Col
lateral with this 1b the fact that, If a
comparison of records Is worth any
thing, Yale or Harvard would have to
fight against odds to win from Ne
braska or Minnesota. The custom that
once obtained to throw Blurs at west
ern athleteB seems to be going out of
date. The time made by Reed in the
220 and 440-yard dashes was the fast
est made in the1 United States that
day,
Y. M. C. A. Tickets Are Good Through
out the United 8tates.
Like any business institution that is
run on a business basis, the Y. M. C.
A. can use a little money now and
then, especially when it is owing.
There are a number of members who
have so far failed to liquidate for
their d,ueB, in fact out of a member
ship of 742, some 48G have paid. The
membership tickets issued by the asso
ciation entitle the holder to the -privileges
of association buildings any
where in the United States. It Is of
advantage to hol-d a ticket for this
reason, as the privileges include use of
baths, swimming pool, etc. The asso
ciation has a large supply of tickets
on hand and those who have paid their
dues and not yet received one should
call at the office in the Temple.

It Is up to the student body to show
its appreciation of the efforts of the
committee in striving to make this
holiday a success. Buy tickets. Bring
your friend. Come yourself. There
will be a number of high school people

Get them to stay over and bring them
to the Ivy day exercises. Let them see
something of university life. It may

to you to see that Ivy day is u success.

LET IT COME IF IT MUST.
From the agitation on the outside it
appears that the University of Nebras
ka athletic department is in for an in
vestigation. There is nothing worse
than suspicion. Guilt itself is prefer
able. It 1b Indeed difficult to probe
the dark and dingy past where mem
ory has become dim and exaggeration
has had Ub growth. Uncertainty Ib
sure to have its influence.
Many unpleasant things will result.
If the charges are confirmed, a last

Much Disputed Title Settled by Con
test in Nebraskan Office.
Tuesday afternoon in the Nebraskan
olllce, the much disputed question of
the Interfrnternity basketball cham
pionship was finally setled. Harry
Coffee, representing the Alpha Tau
Omegas, and Gus Lofgren, acting as
minister plenipotentiary for the Sigma
Alpha Epsllon, did noble and strenur
ous work for their respective clubs,
but the fortune of war decreed that
the banner of the Slg Alfs be trailed
In the dust, and the Alpha Taus won,
9 to 7.
While the game was not strictly ac
cording to intercollegiate rules, the
officiating of Umpire Kiddoo, and Ref
eree Hnscall, made the game a "toss-
up" from beginning to end. Two coins
pennies were thrown up, four times
to a half. A head counted a "basket,"
two points. Both sides getting a bead
gave each one point. If tails were
uppermost, It was counteAinm double
foul. Because of the interest attached
to the game, the excitement of the
spectators, the players and the of
ficials was intense. Here is the com
plete box score.
