alize it. These dream years are left behind and their activities clain
them in their own home town. What a contrast is the monoton
ous life of the town or village as compared with the teeming, enthu
siastic crowds at Nebraska, What a pleasure it is to turn to your Ne
braska Cornhusker and have spread befo-e you the days that were
chuck full of joys, the days of romance, the days when life's cup of
happiness was full to the brim.
You will appreciate more than over the value of your college year

ka's cage crew defeated the
Ames basket tossers, 21 to 1,
in a fast game on the local
court tonight. The close guard
ing and accurate basket throw
ing of the Huskers proved the
undoing of the Cyclone five,
who fought up to the final
whistle.
Following the Ames gi;me last night,
the Husker basket flippers complete
a strenuous week with two contests
on the local floor. Nebraska plays
Missouri, concede! the valley cham

ported to be strong, and these games
are expected to provide a rare treat
for the followers of the Scarlet and
Cream five.
The Missouri cage team is ftrong
this year. The Tigers opened the sea

all of them. The Pioneers took the
road last week and lost a trio of con
tests to the Kansas Aggies, Kansas,
