WESLEYAN TEAM TO
PLAY THE NATIONALS
Game to Be Played Tonight In the City
Auditorium Game Will Be
Closely Contested
The Wesleyan basketball team will
play the Nationals tonight at the City
Auditorium. The Nationals have a
reputation extending from coast to
coast and defeated the strong Metho
dist aggregation two weeks ago by a
close score. Since this time, however,
the Nebraska champions have gone
through some strenuous training and
will be In the best of shape when the
game is called tonight.
The game will attract a large num
ber of University students. In spite
of the drubbing which the Methodists
administered to the University team
at their last meeting, they have a host
of admirers and supporters among the
student body of the University. Coach
Kline is a Nebraska University stu
dent.
ALPHA THETS WIN
BASKETBALL GAME
Championship of First Division Settled
Last Night Game Close and
Snappy Throughout
Alpha Theta Chi defeated Delta Tau
Delta by a score of 13 to 6 for the
championship of the first division .In
the inter-fraterntty basketball tourna
ment at the Arm6ry last night. The

Phi Delta Theta will play Phi Kappa
Psi for the championship of the sec
ond division at the Armory tonight
The winner of this game will play the
Alpha Thets for the championship of
the league. The game will probably
be played the first week after vaca
tion. A Suicide Bureau
In Chicago there is a suicide bureau,
and, strange as it may seem on the
Burface, this bureau is conducted by
the Salvation Army. Its purpose, how
ever, is to save would-be suicides, and
this is the way it works:
Every story of a suicide that ap
pears in the Chicago Herald is pre
ceded by the following statement
boldly set out in black type: "The
Salvation Army suicide bureau at 673
South State street gives aid and ad
vice to would-be suicides." It offers
an interesting problem in psychology.
Will the statement counteract the
story in the mind of the person who
contemplates taking his life? In some
cases such persons have gone to the
bureau and received aid, have been
tided over the dark spell and saved.
Of course, such a plan cannot reach
all, but if one life is saved it is worth
while, and It will be Interesting to
watch the results of the experiment J
By a Prof.
I like you, charming first-year maids.
I'm much too wise to love
I range you in my inner mind
From peacock up to dove.
I watch with interest intent
Your languid, lustrous eyes
That Is, whene'er your glittering
rings
No dazzlings new devise.
I view your furs and velvet hats '
With musings you know not
That is, whene'er your garments chic
Do not suggest It's hot
I hear with Joy your lilting tones
And dream of murmuring brooks
That is. whene'er your knowledge I
Do not compare with books.
And so, O charming first-year maids
Though I lost my monthly fee
I'll overlook your "modern minds"
And pass you with a D!

Roger Garvin, one of the mainstays
of the University of Pennsylvania's
varsity crew for the last two years,
was declared ineligible by the faculty.
Garvin, it Is learned, accumulated five
conditions during the mid-year exami
nations and there is almost no chance
that the faculty ban will be lifted.
Will Elect Baseball Captain by Mail
Evanston, 111. A captain of the 1915
Northwestern University baseball team
will be elected by "mail order," ac
cording, to the coach's announcement.
At the end of the baseball season last
year there was a deadlock for the
office, so letters will be sent to all
members of last year's squad and they
will have another chance, in writing,
to agree on a leader.
Lewis Captain

basketball team, was elected to cap
tain next year's quintet Lewis won

due's two defeats. He scored nine
foul goals against Northwestern and

scored nine foul goals in a game
against Iowa, which the Gophers won
11 to 9.

tution. It was announced today that

them any time ehe Bees fit.
"The time will come," thundered the
suffragette orator, "when women will
get men's wages."
"Yes," said a man in the back seat,

When Father Swooned
My father one day said to me,
'My son, here's fifty beans;
Blow ev'ry blooming cent, it's free-
Here, stick it In your Jeans."
Then I unto my father said, -
"Dear Dad, take back your pelf,
I'll never spend a doggoned red
That I've not earned myself."
My father turned a sickly green,
. His eyes they did protrude;
He smote himself upon the bean,
Then fainted where he stood.
