i IffTER-FRAT GAMES
Four more inter-Greek games were
played yesterday on the Armory floor
and the winners were eta Theta Pi,
Fbi Delta Theta, Sigma Alpha Epsilon
and Delta Upsilon. A good brand of
basketball was noticeable in all of
these contests and frateinity fighting
spirit was evident at all times.
Beta Theta Pi and Sigma Chi put
up a clean exhibition of the court
Mine, the former winning 14-8. The
work of Brooke and Kauff, Beta for
wards was especially deserving of
commendation while Gebert and
Byrne were the stand-bys of the Sig
Chi team. -
Phi Delta Theta had little trouble
in trouncing the Bushnell Guild five
the final score being 21-6. Spain and
Hartley skillfully eluded the B. G
guards at all times. Hartley hit the
hoop for five counters and Spain for
three. Koehler registered five points
for the Phi Delts. The Bushnell
Guilds were able to gather only three
field goals. Nelson was responsible
for two of these and the other is
credited to Redelf. The Phi I1
quintet took the lead at the start and
the result was never in doubt.
The closest game of the day was
the SI Alph Sigma Nu contest in
which the Sic Alphs were victorious
by a 15-11 count. The game was nip
nd tack throughout. At the end of
the first half the Sigma Nu five was

FUNDS GROWING FOR
DR. WOLFE MEMORIAL
Alumni are Sending in Large Gifts
to Endowment Fund Launched
by Palladian Society.
One of the marks that the Universi
ty of Nebraska is "growing up" may
be evidenced In that a $10,000 memor
ial endowment ' efjrt has been
launched by the Palladian Society to
celebrate its fifty years of existence,
and chiefly intended to honor the mem
ory of one of the early alumni of
the society and a man who was long
connected with the faculty Dr. Har
ry Kirk Wolfe. Endowments are some
thing that come to every well equipped
institution of higher learning in the
course of time.
Prof. H. W. Caldwell and T. F. A.
Williams, who arc gathering the
funds report that the sum is growing
but less briskly than would have been
possible if the times were less de
manding. Gifts of one hundred dollars
each have come from these: Dr. B. B.
Davis, '82, a surgeon of Omaha; Ed
mund D. Howe. 87, a farmer of Table
Hock; T. F. A. Williams, '92, a law
yer of Lincoln; C. W. Skiles, '92, of the
same address and profession. Paul
Babson, a business man of Chicago,
has also given a liberal contribution.
Other donors are: Annette E- Lock,
'97; Harold R. Campbell, '16; Anna
M. Treat, Albert E. Harrlman, '18;
Mary Rokahr. Charles R. Welden, '95;
Mabeth Beach '17, Wymore; John N.
Dryden, Mrs. M. B. Field, Arthur Rus
sell Moore, "04. New Brunswick, N. J.;
L. J. Skinner. 14; II. C. Fllley, H J.
Stockman, '16, University of Chicago;
A. E. Sheldon, Mary Tremalne, D. P.
De Young, Montclair, N. J.
The alumni secretary is a believer
in alumni endowments and is doing
much to help on the Wolfe memorial.
She reports from her recent trip to
Chicago that the U. of N. alumni there
are pressing the matter and intend to
do something substantial for the fund.

Outclassed by Speedy Floor
Work of Ponies.
HUSKERS MAKE 44 POINTS
TO MAROONS 12
Nebraska won her sixteenth game of'
the season here tonight, literally
swamping Morningside College by a
score of 44 "to 12. The Maroons who
last week played - Drake to a stand
still here were bewildered by the floor
. ork of the "Huskers" and from the
moment Beklns tapped in the opening
goal until the end of the game the re
eult was never in doubt. Coach
Schissler used his entire string of
players starting substitutes early in
the second period.

was received from Nebraska that

WOODS REPORTS EAST
STR0II5J0R PERSHI'JG
The prospects for the nomination for
the presidency of a University of
Nebraska graduate on the republican,
ticket, was brightened recently, with
the return of Mark W. Woods, chair-,
man of the "Pershing for President
Organization," from a trip to the East.
Mr. Woods brought back to Lincoln
very optimistic reports on the pro-,
gress of the Pershing campaign, and
stated that the East was quickly be
coming reconciled to the idea of "draft
ing" a candidate for the presidency,
which was at first flush an objection
able feature of the Pershing cam
paign, in the opinion of the people of
that country.
"The Nebraska entry is at present,
however, receiving very respectful
consideration from the Easterners,"
said Mr. Wood, "and they will be
found in the Pershing ranks eventu
ally." "Already a number of the Eastern
states are assuredly for Pershing for
first choice at the national, conven
tion, and he has more second choice
delegates to support his candidacy
than all of the other candidates com-.
bined. That is saying a great deal,
considering the political significance
of his situation, for the second choice
delegates are almost certain to bo the
ones who will govern the convention
and decide the nomination for the
republican party."
University of Nebraska alumni ac
cording to a statement issued at the
Pershing headquarters, here, are play
ing a very prominent part both local
ly and in other states in promoting
Pershing's candidacy. Alumni Per
shing clubs are to be found in prac
tically every large city in the United
States where Nebraskans have taken
up residence."
