Freak Plays Follow Huskers and Kaggies Freak plays follow the Huskers snd the Ksnsas Aggies whenever they play basebalL Two plays yes terday reminded one of the time at Manhattan a few weeks ago when Beryl Lang threw a ball wild when the boom of a cannon sounded in an adjacent lot. Yesterday in the seventh inning Miller of the visitors wss put out on a play which would undoubtedly have been an error had it not been for the "freak" element. Andresen fielded Lute's grounder near the second sack, snd in picking it up fumbled and the ball went high ia the air. It looked like it would roll into the center gar den, but Janda, who was also play ing the sack for Miller, nabbed the pellet in its etheresl flight and tagged the runner. It wss a horse on Smaha in sixth inning of yesterday's scrap. He clout ed a foul ball which sailed off the first base line and hit a horse which was placidly parked outside the fence. ...

WILL PRESENT TWO ORATORIOS Chorus Will Give "Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf" and "The Creation." TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY UNIVERSITY ORCHESTRA The University chorus, directed by Mrs. Carrie B. Raymond nnd accom panied by the University Orchestra, will complete a year of musical suc cesses with two oratorios, "Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf" in Memorial Hall at 11 o'clock tomor row, and "The Creation," at S o'clock Sunday. One is strictly modern, while the other is based on classic traditions. In "Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf," which was composed by Ed ward Elgar, Edward Ellingson will sing the role of King Olaf, and Her man Decker that of Ironbeard. . Joy Schaeffer, soprano, Hobart Davisk, tenor, and Dwight Merriam, bass, will also sing solo parts. The mem bers of the chorus represent a gath ering of skalds, or bards, who per sonify for the moment an important character. Story Bated On Leg-end The story of the oratorio is taken from a book of Norse legends, Thor, the God of thunder, issues a chal lenge of battle to the peace god. The challenge is accepted by King Olaf, who slays Ironbeard, Thor's repre sentative, in the combat. The faith of Thor's worshippers is shaken by his downfall, and they turn to the religion of Olaf, which upholds love as greater than anger, and peace as greater than war. The great opening song, in whicWond. Conroy threw out Jardine. the chorus gives voice to Thor s challenge, the conversion scene, and the epilogue, in which Olaf's mother hears a voice proclaiming that the challenge has been accepted "with! the peace cry, not with the war cry are some of the most inspiring pass ages of the score. Will Give "Creation' Sanday Of a type in strong contrast to "Scenes from the Saga of King Olaf" is "The Creation," which the chorus will present Sunday after noon. It follows the six days of creations, as told in Genesis, the first book of the Bible. "The Crea tion" was composed in 1917 and 179S by Hayden, then an old man, known as the "Father of Symphony."
