Tho two classoB will organizo as
soon as possible, fighting, captains bo
ing chosen by each side. Last year
tho Freshman claBB was so woll or
ganized that thoy trimmed tho sopho
moros, but this yoar tho prosont
Froshman class Is largo in numbers
and with good organization should
mako tho fight a good ono.
Dotall plans for tho big frco-for-all

Flold, and tho Bido that has tho groat
or number of men still lnsldo of tho

Two out of threo fights won will

A roforoo will bo elected this wook

Dr. G. E. Condra, tho man who orig
inated tho Idea of tho Nobraska Olym
pics, will not officiate this year as
usual, but wild horseB won't pull him

Rumor has It that tho Doctor is pull
ing for tho SophomoroB in spirit, but
no's as much In favor of tho Fresh
man mauling tho Sophs as otherwise
8oph8 at Work.
Tho Sophs, will havo a fow days'
start on tholr underclassmen as thoy
