The pluck and spirit exhibited by -Don no mid the de termination to pniotlce. every possible minute up to the time of the Contest, might be emulated by Nebraslm with good results. Nebraska unijoubtedly has iih good nuttcriiil as there is In the west. All we lank Is simply the same spirit shown by these smaller Institu tions. Mr. Hiehards of the. Fanners and Merchants liisuraueo eompaiiy. has has presented to each of the colleges contesting In the state meet, a bund soinely fnimed photograph of the $" silver shield trophy. Mr. lUohurds evi dently intends that all of the colleges shall see what, the shield looks like, evn if they do not get a chance to gaze on the genuine niiiele. Dr. Hastings has received a sec ond challenge from Minnesota for a track meet, with Nebraska, besides the nronoscrt meet, at Omaha this spring. Minnesota seems determined to meet us and she will doubtless be accommodated. PROSPECTS IN THE STATE MEET. I ni versify athletes are doing a great deal of thinking these days on their chances of winning the state meect which conies May 14. The men- are beginning to realize that the athletic board means to stand by Its ruling to allow no one to enter any contest un less he is taking a course of physical training. The realization of this fact is causing a great many desirable ath letes to register for physical training. Thus far the chances of winning Room encouraging. Hansen and U. C. James have been practicing for the .diot put. Hansen is showing up in his old time form and James will be a strong enndidate against anybody. Although JnineB hns had scarcely any practice he putting the shot in re markable style and is considered a very promising enndidate. W. E. An drcson and B. M. La Salle are also showing up well for the shot put. lewett. and Lninnr are practicing- for the hninmer throw and Turner, who him just come out the past week, is go ing to make everybody hustle to win either the shot put or hammer throw. Such u number of contestants means good records and if there are an equal number of enndidadtos in the. other events there would be no occasion to fear defent. Jl. Sawyer and A, S. Pcarsc have in dicated their intention of practicing steadily for the mile run. L. S. Itynn, the old stand by, will also enter both events. With this ninterinl Nebraska expects to niuko a good showing, but there is still room for more candidates in this event. For the 100 yard dash the University is basing its hopes on It. D. Audreson, Collett and La Snlle. Collett has just started training this week and with training will make a. hard man to beat. For the 220 yard dash and the 110 yard run, It. D. Audreson, La. Salle, v. E. Andrcson nnd Pepoon have en tered. In the running high jump La Halle, W. E. Andreson and Wntormnn must bear away the prize if it is to Imj carried away by the University. W. 15. Anderson nnd ltencdict nre counted on to win this year's contest as they did last in the running broad jump. Uenediet will make it interesting for anybody in the pole vnult as he 1ms ulrendy beaten last year's record by eight inches. W. E. Anderson will have to uphold the .honor of the University alone in the hurdle nice, n there are no other candidates. Here is where there is great need of men. As many as six contestants is the Hinallest number which could give proper competition in this event. On field day, May 7, nnd In the out door pentathlon, Nebraska will,. be nblc to figiire. oju.,to some extent her chances of winning from the showing made on these' days. MILITARY ATHLETIC CONTEST. The long' talked of contest between "E" and "F," the pigmy companies of the regiment, will take place on the campus at 2 p .m. tomorrow.

EXCLISH CI.U1I ELECTS NEW MEMBERS. On Saturday night, March to, the English club held n more than usu ally interesting session at the. home of Mr. George Ilartlctt. After a care ful selection of available material four graduates wore elected to mem bership. Papers were read from the pen of Miss Grace Rushton, ..), Miss Grace Reynolds, '00, Mr. Clyde, Jeffords. '08, ami Mr. Halsteud. '08. After due !!- ciihsiou iijkI the ciistomarv . formali ties, these four were declared active members. Verse of much local interest were read by Schuyler Miller, and Miss Lu cy Gnrirson Green read some, breezy valentine stanzas. Refreshments were sened and the club adjourned, con gratulating itself upon the evening's work. En Continued from first page. "endurance is not to be presupposed," says Miss Purr, "in girls who have had but n year in the gymnasium." It Is possible that there will ulso be a contest in putting the shot. This should prove to be one of the most in teresting events of the day if the au thorities decide, to include. It. Competition in which these, young girls arc to participate arc the ring jump for height frrwn spring hoard, horizontal bar vault, rope cllnmbing for time and distance nnd potato rav e. There should bo prizes for the win ners of thi's events also, for they should prove of no less if not greater interest than the events of the penta thlon proper. The names of those who are. to en ter and tlio prizes will be given Inter. The date set for the competition is April 10, cither in the afternoon or evening, Probnbly a small admission fee will be charged. The girls expect to turn over all but a small fraction of the proceeds, if there are proceeds, to the boys for a cider trnok fund. It is for the benefit of tlio track no less than for the enjoyment it will afford participants nnd for its novelty that the affair is to be given. The girls see the necessity of a cinder track for University athletes and they would like to lend the boys a hand if they can. in making one possible. MY FIELD DAY Everybody Bayi Bo.
