body and will give several selections,
singing the songs that are the winners
in the parody contest. These songs
will no doubt be the novelty hit of
the evening. There will be music
during the banquet furnished by one
of the best orchestras in the city.
Another novelty will be the menus.
The committee declines to make
known exactly what they will he, but
assures that they will be in the form
of favors that will not loose their
value a- soon as the banquet goes into
history. l
The committee composed of Ross
Haskell, chairman, Harvey Hess, and,
Chan Trimble have been hard at the ,
task for some time and feel sure that
the crowd will be a record breaker.
The curtain is about to go up. Friday

Freshies and Juniors to Clash
Bloody Battle on Athletic Field
Wednesday.
In
The bloody fray is near at hand, the
Juniors and the Freshmen will do bat-
tie for the championship honors in
football on Wednesday afternoon. The
encounter will be staged at the field,
the comedy beginning at 3:30 by the
sundial on the campus, and lasting
until the shades of evening have set
tled upon the dreary sight.
Tnere should be a good crowd out
as the two teams by their former feats,
have shown themselves worthy of the
best support that their classes can
produce. The betting at the present
time Is posted at even money.
The Freshman are light and fast,
favoring the open style of play, while
the Juniors not only outweigh their
opponents but play a smashing game
that brought them victory last year
os Sophomores.

sidelin 48 ynrds from one of the goals,
and from there drop-kicked it toward
the said goal. He was startled a mo
ment later to see the sphere sailing
gracefully between the goal posts. Ho
had made a field goal from a distance
of 48 yards, and from an angle of less
than 4f degrees.
The lengthy mentor is said to have
retired to the doghouse with even a
sweeter smile than that which graced
his features at the close of the Minne
sota game. The applause, in the
meantime, was the greatest ever
raised in the town of Omaha.

hundred yards.
The Nebraska men were at a con
siderable disadvantage and made a
creditable showing In view of the ex
isting conditions. They had expected
to run three miles and a half, and
were forced to go a shade under five
and a half. The weather also was
unfavorable, the air being damp and
difficult to breathe. Added to this the
course was run over paved boulevards
which made extremely bad traveling
for the runners accustomed to cinder
tracks.
This meet was staged by the Kansas
City Athletic club.
TEXAS TAKES FIRST PLACE
AT CHICAGO STOCK SHOW
Nebraska Takes Fifth on Hogs, Sixth
on Cattle, Eleventh on Horses,
Twelfth otr Sheep.
The decision of the judges In the
judging contest at the International
Stock Show at Chicago last Satur
day put the team from Texas In first
place. Nebraska took fifth on hogs,
sixth on cattle, eleventh on horses,
and twelfth on sheep.
The lower placing on the latter two
classes are indicative of the lack of
opportunity for working out In these
classes here at Nebraska. Individual
placlngs have not yet been announced.
