Lincoln High School won the inter scholastlc basketball championship for the second consecutive time by de feating Omaha in the final contest of Class A at the Auditorium Saturday night Among the Class B teams, Hebron proved her right to the championship by taking the final from Minden, 18-7. Nebraska City won the consolation tournament by eliminating her one re maining opponent, Oakdale, winning 12-6. Lincoln and Omaha staged a pretty battle for the championship. The con test was exceedingly fast, with both teams displaying the most versatile basketball seen on a Lincoln floor for years. Lincoln won the game on free throws and a bevy of goals in the middle of the second half. There was little to choose between the two teams. Omaha displayed a little bet ter teamwork and played the floor in cleaner style than Lincoln, but showed a marked inability to count. This aversion of the ball for the Omaha basket seemed at times to be a down right Jinx.

SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA AT TEMPLE TONIGHT Under Direction of Mr. Steckelberg Will Give Concert at Temple Theatre This Evening The Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Carl Frederick Steck elberg, will give an excellent -pro gram, this evening, starting at 8:15. The Symphony Orchestra has been practicing very vigorously this winter and an exceptionally interesting con cert is assured. The following program will be given: "The New World Symphony". .Dvorak "The Marriage of Figaro" Mozart "Cavaleria Rusticana" (Prelude and Siciliana) Mascagni "Blue Danube Waltzes" Strauss "March Slave" Tschaikawski This concert will undoubtedly be of great interest to all students who are studying the symphony, as it gives lis the effect of more instruments play ing at the same time, and the manner in which one movement is first intro duced by a certain instrument and at different times, through a background of harmony, this little movement is repeated by other instruments, giving it a little different color in each in stance so that a beautiful picture in a mosaic of music is produced. This feature is most noticeable in the last movement of -"The New World" sym phony, since the trumpets announce the movement and it is taken up by the other instruments in a number of different ways.

Mr. Robins pointed out that these questions were rela tively of more importance today than in the past because the industrial con ditions are in an era of transition.

Developing this idea, he graphically described some of his experiences in dealing with disputes between capital and labor. In acting as one of the arbitrators in a strike of the employes of the Rapid Transit Company of Philadelphia and in his work in avoid ing a great strike in the railway shops in Altoona, Pennsylvania, it was im pressed upon him that only through the spirit of fairness and co-operation will our industrial problems be solved.
