Colorado College Expects to Give
Huskers Drubbing Friday
and Saturday.
Campus Fans Anxious to See
Post-Game With Chicago
University.
The Colorado College basket-toss-ers,
who handed the Cornhuskera one
of the two defeats they have re
ceived this - season, are coming to
Lincoln to meet the Huskers on the
Armory floor on Friday and Saturday
afternoons of this week. Since play
ing Schissler's squad at Colorado
Springs, the Tigers have annexed
the championship lf the Rocky
Mountain conference and are conti-
dent that they will grab both ends of
the twin bill from Nebraska.
Schissler's team has jujst returned
from a very successful tour through
Iowa. Illinois, and Indiana with five
more victories chalked down to Its
credit. At each place where the No-
hraskans exhibited they were hailed
as one ot the greatest agregatlons
of hoopsters seen in the West in
manv years and the fame of Corn
husker basketball has reached dazz
ling heights. Valparaiso players and
coaches were very emphatic In de
claring that Nebraska easily had any
team in the Big Ten outclassed.
Unless a favorable answer is re
ceived from the University of Chica
go authorities in reply to Coach
Schissler's Invitation to the Maroons
to meet the Huskers in Lincoln, these
two games with Colorado Colege will
wind un the Cornhusker basket sea
son. No word has as yet been received
from the Maroon officials and whether
or not they would consider a clash
with Nebraska is a matter of conjec
ture. Nebraska enthusiasts have lit
tle doubt but what the Huskers can
trounce the Chicago five or any other
team in the country.
At the present time, however, all in

Plenty of Entertainment Reftv
For High School Basketeers
The University of Nebraska prom
ises to provide plenty of entertain
ment lor the high school basketbal'
men who will be the guests of the
university 1his week at the tenth
annual basketball tournament. The
committee on entertainment has ar
ranged for a number of Interesting
features and many more stunts are
the athletic carnival.
The city Y. M. C. A. as usual will
throw open its doors to all basketball
men upon their arrival in the city.
A guest membership card will be
issued to every manager and players.
This paste board will entitle them to
all the privileges of the institution in
cluding the 'swimming pool, showers,
reading rooms and cafeteria. For the
benefit of the early birds who will
pave the way for the visitors a
wrestling match and gymnasium ex
hibition has been planned at the city
Y. M. C. A. this evening at eight
o'clock. An admission of twenty-five
rents will be charged to defray ex
penses. A vaudevile program under
the auspices of the student council
of the Lincoln high school will be
c n at the high 6chool auditorium
ht eight-thirty immediately followinr
under preparation.
The big blow-out of the week will
be held at ihe Commercial club in
the form of a banquet on both Thurs
day and Friday evenings. Due to the
large number of teams entered in the
lournament an arbitrary division of
the teams will be necessary. Assign
ments of reams for Thursday and Fri
banquets will be made at the athletic
office when the teams register and re
ceive their badges. Professor Scott
will be master of ceremonies at both
"spreads." Coach Schissler will give
the address of welcome, the univer
ity quartet will be on deck to enliven
the crowds with a few strains of
harmony, and the Southern Rag-A-Jazz
band has been engaged to fur
nish the syncopation each evening
The big court classic of the week
will be the basketball battle between
Oie varsity teams of the Colorado
College and the University of Ne
braska on Friday and Saturday after
noons at four o'clock. The Colorado
aggregation recently won the Rocky
Mountain conference and the team
boasts of ore victory over Nebraska.
The strength of the westerners indi
cates that Schissler's quintet will
have a desperate struggle at both
matches. Official dope from the ath
letic headquarters says that the locals
are in the pink of condition and the
Huskers are confident that they will
scalp their opponents.
