The annual Sigma XI mid-winter commencement lecture and dinner will be carried out this year in co-operation with the Phi Beta appa frater nity, the honorary literary society of the University. H. L. Shantz, who took an M. D. degree at the University in 1905, has been engaged as the speaker. Mr. Shantz was an instructor at Nebraska for a number of years be fore leaving to take a professorship of botany at- the University of Mis souri. For the past seven or eight years he has been plant physiologist in the bureau of plant industry of the United States department of agricul ture. While working in the bureau of plant Industry, Mr. Shantz spent all his time studying the water relations of plants in the great plains area of North America. He has published many papers upon scientific and eco nomic relations of his investigations. The subject Mr. Shantz has chosen for his lecture here February 12, is "Water as a Factor in Plant Growth." BENDER CLAIMS GUY INELIGIBLE (Continued from page 1) tained that Chamberlain played two years of football at the Methodist school, his first season being 1911; in the college course, not as a prep student in the academy, and that he played in 1912 as a Sophomore. If that Is correct. Chamberlain woilld not be eligible for another year of football at Nebraska, as his two years at Wesleyan and his two subsequent years at Nebraska university would complete the period which, under the conference rules, he would be per mitted to compete. I do not know if Bender purposes to file a protest, al though there is no doubt that he in vestigated and then announced what he had ascertained. Speaking for Kansas, I will say that we would not file a protest, but if Chamberlain is ineligible, according to the claim credited to Bender we would look to Nebraska to respect the rules. In other words, Chamberlain either is eligible or Ineligible, so it is a mat ter for Nebraska to decide." When it became known around the campus late yesterday afternoon that Johnnie Bender, once a Cornhusker star, had filed a protest against Guy Chamberlain, the Kansas Aggie coach was freely criticised for his action. The loss of Chamberlain, who, in the minds of the student body is far more important to Nebraska's success next fall than was Stlehm, will put a kink in Nebraska's smoothly laid plans for the next gridiron campaign. The big boy was slated for even a greater season than the one just past; what the new coaching staff will be able to do without his services is a subject of pessimistic conjecture. To Announce Teams Soon Teams for the Girls' Basketball Tournament are to be chosen in-the near future. The scholastic standing of the candidates will be considered above all other things. Announce ment of the teams will be made the first week of the second semester. LOST Shaefer self-filling pen. Re turn to Student Activities office.

MINNESOTA SQUAD SHOWS CLASS Gopher Basketballers Are Ready for Their Big Nine Confer ence Rivals Nebraska being in the midst of a basketball season will probably be in terested in what Minnesota is doing along that line. The following comes from Minneapolis: Minneapolis, Minn., Jan. 18. The Gopher basketball team finished its preliminary season of practice last Saturday by defeating North Dakota in a fast game. The play of the Goph ers in the latter part of the game demonstrated that there are going to be some lively and scrappy games in store for their conference opponents in the coming schedule. Minnesota opens her conference bas ketball season at Madison on Satur day, January 15. The Gophers real ize that this will be an especially hard game and they are doing everything in their power to develop basket-shooting accuracy and fast covering, which things are probably all they need to place them on a par with the fast Wisconsin five. During practice games there seem ed to be no regular lineup. It was not until the last game with North Da kota that any degree of definiteneES could be assumed in naming a prob able team for the rest of the season. Now it has simmered down to reason able proportions, and the following six men will, barring Injuries, probably see most of the conference competi tion: C tptain Dick Lewis, who start ed at guard, will undoubtedly be play ing at forward the rest of the winter, with Connell and Wyman (who start ed this fall at guard), alternating at the other fordward position. "Rondy" Gillen is the main dependable for cen ter. Partridge and Douglass will be seen most of the time at the guards. Various ones of these men have started in different games. Captain Lewis plays his same steady game of last year, getting, seemingly, about nine out of every ten free throws in the basket. Douglass starred at his position in the North Dakota "game, making four field goals and at the same tjme remaining a leading factor in the defense. Outside of basketball everything is thriving in sports at Minnesota. The hockey team is practicing hard and has prospects of developing a winning seven under Captain Margeus, a Can adian star player. Intramural sports of all kinds are under the influence of a more stirring inspiration than ever before. The fraternities are in the midst of a bowling tournament Sigma Chi recently went into the lead which had been guarded jealously by Chi Psi for several weeks. Within a week or two the interfraternity basketball will be under way. This has always been one of the most hotly contest ed interfraternity athletic leagues. The schedule for the interfraternity hock ey championship competition is also being prepared. All of which makes the Gopher bas ketball team hump itself to maintain its undivided popularity. JESSE A.
