The Nebraska State High School
Tournament sailed thru the biggest
day in its history, when from eight
o'clock yesterday morning to six in
the evening 1200 athletes fought for
the honors in their respective classes.
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.

OF ORGANIZATION
The three organizations, V. W. C.
A.. W. S. G. A., and the W. A. A.
met with Miss Burner, national stu

purposes. The aim of each organiza
tion was discussed in detafL The
W. S. G. A. or the Girls' Club is to
cultivate the high ideals of the
girls and to promote democracy.
Half of the dues paid by members
each year goes to help support a girl
in the university. After the girl grad
uate? she pays it back wi'h interest
to the organization and it is used to
help another girl thru school. The
purpose of the Y. W. C. A- is to culti
vate the religious side of the irls
and to forward the idea of service.
The W. A. A. seeks to promote girl's
athletics cs 'he campus. Girls "bo
