Nebraska Champions Swamp the Bull
dogs In First Conference
Game.
Drake was completely swamped in
the basketball games with Nebraska
last Friday and Saturdav Our bos
had it on the Bulldogs in every de
partmout except free-goal throwing
Captain Tupper of the Bulldogs made
14 goals out of 22 free chances No
braska made 1 out of 8 chances
The first game was slow the first
half, as Coach Stielun did not have
Hugg and Rutherford in the line up.
Tho Becond half was much faster with
these two men In the game Dick
brought the crowd to its feet several
times His defensive play is such as
has seldom been seen on the home
floor. The team this year seomB to be
so well balanced that it is difficult to
pick out stars. Eucb man on tho
team played a spectacular game and
another championship will not sur
prise tho Btudents who havo seen tho
team In action.
Tho second game was faster than
tho first, but tho Bulldogs were out
classed completely. They mado but
two field goals during tho whole gama.
After the regulars put the game on the
shelf, Jumbo swamped tho floor with
Bubs. Dick and Ross again displayed
their skill in tho art. Hawkins played
a good game and was tho only ono
played the whole period. Hugg also
played a fast game and during his
short period in the game made the
most points.

Next Month.
Nebraska Honored.
N. P. Hanson of the School of Phar
macy has Just returned from Colum
bus, Ohio, where he attended the Na
tional Convention of the Phi Delta
Chi, tho honorary pharmaceutical fra
ternity. He was furthered honored by
being elected grand treasurer of tho
organization. This fraternit) was
established at Nebraska in 1902, and
is only found In universities of high
rank.
After an interruption of one issu,
tho Dally Nebraskan again resumes
publication. Judge Stewart of the
District Court denied the application
of tho Kuhl Printing Company last
Saturday for a temporary injunction
to restrain the publication of the Ne
braskan at any printing office except
tho plaintlff'B.
Kuhl alleges that he has a contract
with the officials of tho Nebraskan for
a year's contract, and sought specific
performance on thla alleged agree
ment. At the beginning of the second
semester the business management
ordered tho copy taken to the West
ern Newspaper Union, where the
"Rag" has been issued for the past
two weeks. Tho defendants to the
suit denied that there was any con
tract and assert that they had a right
to change printers.
All the members of tho Publication
Board were HUinmont( ' alao tho
business management ner a sub
mission of testimony v-Rtlh sides,
the court held that the matter of a
contract was very uncertain and that
the plaintiff had an adequate remedy
at law without tho tiBe of an Injunc
tion. Tho writ was thereforo denied.
The case is expected to come to
trial next month. With the succ sful
meeting of this barrier the manage
ment of tho Daily Nebraskan claim
that nothing will interrupt tholr pub
lication In tho future and that their
subscribers may expect a bigger and
better paper than ever.
