MAY 17, 1915 WILSON'S MESSAGE The president's note to Germany is a clear, concise statement of the atti tude of the United States in the pres ent crisis. Believing that most stu dents are interested in the situation will be anxious to read this carefully and diplomatically worded message we are printing the complete text today. A CAMPUS CONCERT The Band and the Cornhusker Quar tette had an important part in making the Ivy Day program a success. These two organizations fill a place in our school life that we hardly appreciate. The" Band has been so faithful on all important occasions this year that we seem to take it as a matter of course that they will be there. It would be an excellent thing from every stand point if we could have a few even ing concerts on the campus from seven until eight during the next three weeks. These concerts would pro duce evidence of the students' appre ciation of the band and quartette that would mean an immeasurable strengthening of our school spirit. nlto action was taken in this matter. We need ten or, fifteen courts here. There is little doubt that hundreds of our students would become interested in this great outdoor game if they had any place to play. As preparations are being made for extending the campus, now is the time to press our demands for more tennis courts. True we can't get them this year, but pro visions can be made for permanent courts so that next fall they will be ready. We have talked long enough. We need to do something. If you are sincere in your desire for better ten nis facilities, you are going to be given the chance to help get them. A petition to the Board of Regents will be circulated tomorrow asking them to take action on this matter. If some one doesn't ask you to sign, call at the Nebraskan office and sign one there. But the only way to make this thing count is for the students to go at it as if they meant business. We don't want thirty or forty names on that petition we want a thousand. Don't wait to have some one come around and beg you to sign it. This is a serious matter. Every man and woman who believes in giving this democratic game a chance at Ne braska should give this movement their unqualified support. GOPHERS SWAMP HUSKERS Minnesota scored 91',2 points to Ne braska's ZV2 In the meet at Minne apolis, Saturday. Full particular of the meet had not been received when this Issue of the Nebraskan went to press. A full account of the meet will appear in tomorrow's paper. Roy O. Warde, 1501 -O" St., Neb. State Bank Bldg. MORE TENNIS COURTS Nebraska's showing In the tennis meet was gratifying to all interested. Considering the poor facilities for de veloping players, it is remarkable that our men run down to the finals in both the singles and doubles. It is to be regretted that when the opportun ity came for Nebraska to entertain the Missouri Valley Tennis Association it waa necessary to have the games played on the courts at the Country Club. All the larger schools in the middle west have from four to twenty six courts, wbile Nebraska has but two. There has been agitation year after year for more courts. Each year the excuse has been that it is too late to do anything more this year. This spring the matter was brought before the Athletic Board, but nothing has been done.
