VARSITY TKAM DHFKATKD.
The second of the series of indoor
baseball panics was played in the Ar
mory last Friday evening; between the
Athletics ami the. Varsity team. Con
trary to the anticipation of most of
the spectators the regular baseball
men were faulty beaten. At the end
of nine innings the score stood i:i to
4 in favor of the Athletics, but as
their opponents had not yet got
enough, they played si more innings,
the total ;eorc lieinir 17 to .". The
Vnrsitv team had no one to till the
position at center Held and so play
ed through the game with only eight
men.
Rceder nt left field tried to coer his
own position and center field a No, but
he was about as active as an Indian
cigar sign and a good sized soap box
would have been of considerable, ser
vice to him in stopping the ball.
A good sized crowd was present to
witness the game. The cadet band
kindly consented to furnish the mu
sic for the occasion, and deserves
credit therefor.

On Friday, Feb. 11, there will come
up in Council UlulTs the case of Frank
Crawford against the Athletic associa
tion of the University of Nebraska.
It will be remembered that Crawford
i.ttachcd $2f0 out. of the gate receipts
of the Thanksgiving day game be
tween Iowa and Nebraska. He claims
that there is yet due him for services
as coach for the University football
team during the season of 189.1 the
sum of $150.
The attachment proceedings came
as a complete Hurprisc, for no such
claim against the association had ever
been made by Crawford and no one
connected with Athletics had any
knowledge of the existence of such
n debt.
It wan generally thought that the
notion was commenced by Crawford
out of "spite" toward the management
of tho football team, which refused to
phu the Thanksgiving KUine tu Om
lui on ground'- controlled b, ( raw ford.
Several l nlversit.v men have been
subpoenaed by the defense, among
those are Harry Oury, Fred Cooley,
Hoseoo round. Dr. Ward anil Will liny
ward. Messrs. Pound of l.lueotu and Wright
of Council Mull's are looking after the
Interests of the I'nlverslty.
As yet the defense Is soeict, but II Ik
known thai the attorneys for the de
fense have set up a counter claim of
$."00 for attorney's foes, time and ex
pense oT Manager Oury, Interest, etc.
RoM'or Pound, who has charge of
the Lincoln end of the legal business,
is confident that the defense will be
able to disprove the claim of Craw
ford and release the money, which has
been tied up on account of his suit.
In case the association does not ob
tain possession of this money it will
be just, that much in debt, for it
eamo out just about even, counting in
the $Stf() that is in the hands of the
shorllV at Council Mull's.
CNIVI515SITY UIRLS WIN.
A M'oond, but smaller, edition of the
famous Nebraska-Kansas game was
given In the gymnasium of the old Y.
M. C. A. building last Saturday morn
ing. A f nine of basket ball was
played between a team of Lincoln la
dles, captained by Miss Anne Spurek,
and .Miss Louise Pound's team of Uni
versity girls, for whom this Is the first
year's experience in basket ball. MNs
.Mario Reach and .Miss Jennie i'entei
had the hardest positions to till, as
umpire and referee, but came out of
the debate unscathed.
As far as playing is concerned, both
teams put up a very interesting game,
which was at all times exciting. The
two captains of the teams played a
very good game. Reside these .Mm.
Ogden and Mrs. Woods, and the Misses
Rnuncll and Taylor, did the best play
ing for their respective teams. In the
second half of the game Mrs. Mar
shall's place was taken by Miss Clara
Smith.
The Lincoln ladies' team was com
posed of Mrs. Ogden. Miss SpurcK,
Miss Smith, Mrs. Marshall. Mr..
Woods, and Mrs. Weir. The Univer
sity was represented by the Misses
Taylor, Pound, Miller, Rouucll, Ken
nedy, and Dempster.
The game ended with a score of IS
to s in fnvor of the I'niverslty team.

The association will give you 7." per
cent of the net gate receipts anil will
guarantee a good advertisement. . .
Trusting this will meet with your ap
proval, I am, etc." Thus the matter
rests with the K. S. U.
Monday, May 9, Kansas City it,
scheduled. No team is mentioned, but
presumably Missouri State University
is intended, judging from a letter re
ceived February ,1 from Columbia, Mo.,
which, under the circumstances, is
very much to the point. Mr. Leo UN
ley says: "In reply to yours of Jan
uary 19, I shall say that we wo lid like
to play you in Kansas City on the 9th
of May if we can tccurc juntiiiablo
terms. Let mo know who will make
these trms." That is a very import
ant point, it seems to us. in the ar
rangement of a game outside a Uni
versity city. Tuesday, 31 ay 10, a
game is scheduled for Ft. Leaven
worth, Kan., but Mr. Stacy in his let
ter certainly does not eon.vy any such
impression of a complete or dual defi
nite arrangement of date, (lives this
the benefit of the doubt and call a
game, for the 10th at Yt, leavenworth
without guarantee.
Wednesday, May 11th, t game is
scheduled ior Tarkio, Mo guarantee
$30. Mr. Ferrell, their manager,
etiys on the subject umVr date of
February 2: "Possibly tie 12th of
May would suit. We liavj almost ar
ranged for another gamt for that
date, but if you will come for the fig
ure offered, $30, we would rather have
you.aud could arrange the other game
later, liase ball Ik almost an experi
ment in Tarkio."
That windb up the southern trip,
which was, according to tho college
papers, definitely arranged sometime
between the 1st and 15th of May.
How about, the eastern Iowa trip?
"where dates and guarantecH suill
cient to insure a trip through Iowa
and n part of Illinois have been se
cured, so that nn eastern trip is an
assured fact."
From l'enn college at Oskaloosa, we
learn from letter of January 20, from
T. F. Gray, via president Fenn college, 1
Auueue association, that they are
unable to meet our team. No game
there.
Bliitl
I
Mi II H (ioggcshall ot (Irtnnoll
college write under date of Februur.v
2, that they will know something In
11 week or two.
Mr. Kd "Little, manuger of the Iowa
Stale eollcg base ball learn, accepts
giiineut. Ames May JO.wtth n .$(!() guar
antee, which was scheduled and re
ported to the athletic board.
In the plan of an eastern trip sub
mitted to the board the. dates May 17.
IS, 20, 21 and 21th are left vacant.
Two games are scheduled with S. V.
L, viz: Iowa City on the. IDth, Omaha
or Council Mull's on tlio 2:ird. The
last Icier frovi Iowa City of February
I, sa.vs: "1 too, am very anxious to
decide definitely about our games
1 have no doubt but that, we can ar
range the games and hope- you can
hold them open a little, longer."
One game therefore definitely ar
ranged in lovva.wlth a promised guar
antee. Not a gaiue is arranged for in
Illinois, though there is some prol'iinl
nary correspondence.
It does not. seem necessary to go In
to the matter further than to say that
plans are pending for those games,
but. certainly nothing more than
pending, both for the trips and the
tri state moot of Kansas, Missouri
and Nebraska. This is the very best
construction that can be put upon
the matter.
When, therefore, this correspond
ence and business was laid before this
committee, and was considered at a
prolonguod meeting, it. was deemed
wise and e.xcpdicnt because Mr. Don-
nison had practically given up the
work of the management on account
of the lack of time, to accept his ie.s
iguatiou. And on account of the article in the
college papers, as well as the incom
plete condition of the work as it ap
peared to the committee, it was also
thought inexpedient to either elect a
now manager or to place the assist
ant manager in full charge.
When Ar. Denuisoii presented Ills
resignation lie asked that the commit
tee make a statement in the college
papers. A full and dcllnitc statement
lias therefore been made by said com
mit tee, based upon the correspond
ence now in their hands.
Since the resignation of Manager
Denuisou of tlio base ball team the
necessary work is being carried on by
the base ball committee consisting of
Prof. Lees. Lieutenant Stotseubcrg
and Mr. Porter. Mr. Ryons, the assis
tant manager, is acting a.s secretary
to the committee and is conducting
the correspondence relative to tho
coining season.
No manager has .vet boon elected
and it. is said that the boaid linds it
extremely difficult to find a competent
man who wishes to take up the work
at this time of the year.
Ab far as possible the plans of Mr.
Denuisou will be carried out hv the
committee and by the future niauager
vyiiocyci- iie inav uc. 11 is as 1 1 .0
certain whether the trips arranged hv 1
the late manager and the plans he
made are entirely feasible or not, and
it. will take considerable correspond
ence to straighten matters out.
However, the boa id has gone at tin
manor wiin inucii vigor anil tber is
no great cause for alarm on the part
of the sport loving public-, although
a change of management at this time
necesirily Complicates matters vcrv
much
