Time was when the college girl
was supposed to do one of two things
sho could bone hard and get her
self a I. B. K. or she could dance
and wield a feather fan at proms
Hut no girl was ever supposed to do
both. This was the happy day wheu
all ladies were supposed to be afraid
of mice and faint at the sight of blood.
Rut owing to a number of things
largely the passing of time and the
unceasing demand made by women for
recognition in every phase of life
this has all been changed. Women
can make munitions, they can run fac
tcrls, they can plow farms and they
not only can do It but they are doing
it every day of their lives. And the
college woman, in practically every
case, has been the forerunner and the
instigator of the work to be done. And
not only can the college woman work
to point and purpose, but she can
play, keeping the rules, and obey the
dictates of the referee and umpire
quite as well as anyone.
The members of the Women's Ath
letic Association, and the players .com- j
peting for awards in that sport man-
aged three supcessiui lournauienis ;
this season the Inter-Sorority, the.
Rainbow and the Inter-Class. These
tournaments enabled one hundred and j
flrty girls to compete m actual piay-
ing for prize, gave healthful and j
pieaaaiu rcci trauuu iui iuau; mvii
and' proved conclusively thjat girls'
athletics, when managed by girls of
character and discretion, can be made
one of the most important influences
of college life.
Delta Zeta Wins
In the Inter-Sorority tournament,
Delta Zeta, with Blanche Higgins,
Grace Nichols, Teggy Downing, Helen
Dewitt, and Gertrude DeSautelle play
ing, defeated Chi Omega, represented
by Beatrice Koch, Camilla Koch, Bess
Sherman, Margaret Cowden and Bess ,
Cheney. The Rainbow tournament re-j
suited in a victory for the Purple,
Puiibv Read. Annabelle Ranslan, Lll
llan Wirt. Nellie Bloodgood and
Patricia Maloney defeating the White,
with Emma Fcniel. Alice bchott,
Louise redrett, Hazel Edwards and
Lillian Anderson defending that color.
The inter-class tournament was a
marked victory for the seniors, that
team, with Beatrice Dlerks. captain;
Ermine Carmean, Camilla Koch. Grace
Nhhols and Blanche Higgins defeat
ing the Juniors, the runners-up, by a
very lopsided score. '
It is a tribute to a well managed
nort ihat it will attract the style
nf elrl who nlays basketball at Ne
braska. During the entire season of
ninir there was never the slightest
dissatisfaction displayed by a single
girl no team ever stooped to an un
snortsmanllke trick to win and never
was deliberate fouling indulged in by
a nlaver. The tournaments began on
time, were played off as fast as they
could be nlayed. entirely under tne
management of the Women's Athletic
association. This takes considerable
executive ability, endless tact and
much more work than most people
would care to undertake.
Players Develop Skill
The eood old days when it was
funny to speak of a woman's aim are
decidedly gone. They seem to te
doing everything better these days
they can heave plates through win
dows and balls through loops as well
as anyone. Ermine Carmean man
aged to hit the little hoop fourteen
times during the interclass tourna
mentand she had a good guard in
the way all the time. Camilla Koch
located the basket eleven times during
the same games and she did it at
toD speed against a clever opponent
Grace Nichols with the characteris
tic vacillating feminine mind kept her
attention on the game well enough to
prevent a single goal being made by
her by her opponent during a whole
tournament. And the good old argu
ment, "girls are poor loosers" received
a knockout blow when the sorority
cup was won by the Delta Zetas by a
single goal and won in perfect peace
and good feeling.
In all, the basketball season, with
its splendid record of players and play,
is a credit to the University .of Ne
braska, to the Women's Athletic asso
ciation, and to the skill and the fair
play of the girls of the whole school.

short time in which to make the final
arrangements for the book before it is

accomplished unless proper co-operation

The discouraging number of fiften
men reported to the Syracuse coach
for baseball training. It is hoped
that some of the basketball squad
will swell this number when that
season is over. Practice is being
held indoors until the ground is clear
of snow. This year's schedule calls
for only twelve games, over half of
which will be played at home.
