The seating capacity of .the Armory proved sadly inadequate to accommo date the throngs of Class A students who nocked in from Omaha. Lincoln, and University Place. For the first time in the history of the tourna ment Lincoln went down to defeat in the preliminary round, being elimina ted by the fast Omaha Commerce team, 12 to 6. It was a hard blow to Lincoln hopes to be wiped from the list in the first encotihter. For last year's champions to lose the opening contest was a huge surprise, and something which had never happened before i n the hi s toiy of the tournament. Indeed this is Ihe first time in the last six years with one exception that the Lincoln representatives did not reach the fin als, and win the cup. The Omaha Commercials siezed the lead at the start and the Lincolnites 'Trailed for the rest of the trip. Coach Beck sent Roddy Lamb and Sougey into the fray during the second half but without result. The Omaha boys were too fast, and the wise ones are looking to see them in the finals. It was during the mad excitement of this game that the grand stand caved in. One of the big surprises of the day was the defeat of South Omaha at the hands of Norfolk. Splendid pass ing and wonderful goal tossing won for Norfolk. A mix-up occurred dur ing the first half when both teams appeared in similar suits. Much con fusion resulted and both" teams were continually passing to their oppon ents. GOSPEL OF GOOD ROADS PREACHED BY ENGINEERS The third day of the second Ne braska Road Institute closed with an increased attendance and splendid programs. That the gospel of good roads has been spreading rapidly in Nebraska was Indicated at the Wednesday morning sesion by the un usual enthusiasm hsown. The audi torium in the engineering building was filled with men from different parts of the stae who were interested in better higk vays. The western part of Nebraska was very well represent ed. President Wolz emphasized the ne- f ocoitj. of Jots! co-cpcraticn in ecu nection with state and federal aid. Mr. Wolz has been traveling over much of Nebraska during the past year and he brought a message of good cheer to the members of the institute. He heartily advocated community organ izations. Charles H. Roper, president of the (Coutliiuf-d on Pare To) The closest scrap of the day was staged by the School of Agriculture and Newman Grove, the former tri umphing after the game had ended, and an extra five minutes were added. Ti e derision of the athletic associ ation which barred the girls on the Hayes Center team from participa tion in the tournament will no doubt muse a great slump in the gang which would have salliad out for the spectacle.
