In reply to an inquiry from a sister institution with regard to what Ne braska is doing in the -way of athletic training, the following calendar of the year's work was sent without com ment, it being thought that the bare outline sutllcietit to indicate our ac tivity. This schedule Is introduced for the renders of the Nebrnskan wth the same end in view. CONDENSED ANNUAL ATHLETIC CALENDAR. September 18, November 24 Foot ball, First and Second eleven sched ules.

Strong representative team to be sent '9S-'99). From a glaucu at this outline one may gather more readily the condition and progress of athletics than from columns of explanation. But while brevity is a pood tiling in a bird's-eyo view, something more than an ab stract outline Is essential to indicate what is involved in a season of train ing fur the event, tlierfore various forms of athletics hare written up un der their respective heads footbu',1, base ball, basket ball, etc. and by those personally interested in the sue cess of these ind'vidual snorts. They are a part of t lie general subject of j I'liysieal Training 'kk' all of Hum properly conducted make for the dt volopment of tine physique, athletic sports for the man of great vitality and nervous force, hygrenle and edu cational gymnastics for general train ing of all round men and corrective or medical gymnastics for the weak or diseased. Space would not mi f (lee for an out line of the training, past records, dis cussion of pioniiiR'iit candidates for all the indoor and outdoor events of the year. Sufficient for our present purpose and space will be the review of prospects for one representative event from each class, Indoor and out door athletics, The first athletic contest after tho close of the basket ball season is tho Charter Day Indoor Athletic contest. This was one of the most popular en tertainments of last year. We were honored with tho presence ot Ills Ex cellency, Governor Ilolcoiub and a part of his stall'. The Chancellor, Commandant of ca dets and several other raculty repre sentatives gave the support of thiir presence. A crowded house proclaimed the appreciation of a sport loving pub He. This year even better records of the rnivcrslty. Heretofore phys ical training has been placed upon a different basis from the mental work of the University and men have been allowed to register for this work In addition to whatever nmount of men tal work they were allowed to carry. The ground of this previous ruling CAPTAIN MELFOKD 'OS and a more successful contest is e peetcd although has bet u that the more hours of ln- we have lost more , telleetuai work a student had the morn than one of our last year's record-' he stood in need of regular exercises, breakers notably.

Tho mistake must have came in through some over sight during the change of tho courses .last spring. It Is too late to remedy matters of dozens of men who did not register for physical training during the past semester, to bo more accur ate between forty and ilfty have ap plied for registration and failed to en ter, and doubtless as many more would have done so if ttiey laid not tho futility of doing so. JOYS OF A FRESHMAN. The frut was "breaking in" tho new freshman. Tluit is the seniors and juniort, were impressing him with their importance, and tho inferiority of lre&hinen in general, by compelling him to polish their shoes, brush their clothes and tend tho .furnace. They ulso inudo it disagreeable for him in other ways, that caused him to develop his bump of cautiousness. They lllled the tubing of his wheel with shot, which caused the freshman to work three days to llud what gave the wheel its dose of tin cans. They borrowed his collars and cuffs and money until the freshman, was obliged to skip clcsca or . 1 am wandering; I started to tell how the freshman evened up. One night "Smudge" conceived the idea of putting Hour in the freshman's bed. Well, he put it in, a whole lot of it, and spread it around on the sheet, the gang got in Smudge's room, which was next to the freshman's, and list ened at the door with eager ears lo near what the freshman would say. They heard him walking nround, and the rustle of garments as he dis robed. Then the light was extin guished and the gang held their breath when the bed squeaked as he climbed in. Then they heard one long expres sive, " HI" as he landed on the floor. There was a slight rustling for a few monments, then, the freshman locked the door, wnd the bed spueakel again. The freshman got "guyed" good and hard the next morning, hue ho took It gracefully. At noon he didn't come down to lunch, and a sympathizing brother went to his room to find out what was wrong. The freshman was lying on VllK KANHVH KLKVEN-DHFKATKD ONLY HY NKnUABKA. of deepest regret also that II. C. Swal low who won a place- in seven or eight out of tho ten preliminaries of last year can not contest, on account of this year's faculty ruling that phys ical training can not be taken in Ad dition to the regular intelectual work could well afford to allow an hour of credit for each semester simply for the health and consequent promise of solid work in the student. It was previously supposed that tho University existed for tho purpose of making all round men nnd not simply the bed his head tied up in n towel. "WJmt'B the maitter; you sick?" ho was asked. "Oh, Lord; I'm going to die; I never had such a sick headache. Get out of hero and shut tho door," ho moaned In response. i Everybody was sorry, nnd their con sciences hurt thorn a great deal, too. because they liked the freshman Im mensely; he was such a manly fellow, and wrote to his mother twice a week nnd studied like a trooper. But they would not have been so sorry, had they seen that same freRhmnn nn l..- i. ns he sneaked toward the kitchen with . untune max iookccI suspiciously like a sheet tied by the four corners "Say, Aunty," lie mid to tho ruler of the realm of pans nnd skillets. kny, the gang put a sack of flour in my bed last night, but 1 tied it up in the sheet and I want you to bake a . o!,of biscult with it tonight. Will "For do Lawd sake, chile," ex claimed the cook as she placed her hands on her hips and laughed until her 200 pounds of avoirdupois shoAk. peed I will, honey; deed I vill. nhn hat Yes, indecde. Yo' clear out o' here, now, caso I got to scrub de floor." I he freshman pretended to be woe fully sick at dinner and ate very lit tle, but kept looking wistfully at the plntos of dainty-brown, hot, biscuits that were rapidly disappearing down the throats of tho gang. Then ho would tell how ho liked biscuits, and ho wished he dared eat some of those. And then the heartless wrechen ato more than ever and said it served hiin right, lie ought to be sick. Finnlly he arose from the table, went in to the hall, put on his overcoat and hat, came back to the dining room door nnd said: "Say, do you fellows like those bin. cults?" 'Bet your life. Best we ever ate, Have one?" was tho chorus of replies I m glad you do; they're mndo but ,m flo,lr T BleP in lnt night." I ho freshman dodged nnd escaped. He slept, with a friend down town that night. G. K. B. 'Tun 1 "'clock; ho started to go. And his hat he nervously flngernd, And they stood on tho porch she itnd her beau, And he lingered, nnd jlngcrcd, nnd d I tigered. , ! And he wingered, nnd fingered, and Ami I bingcred, and hlngcrcd, nnd Wingered, -u And nlngercd. nnd plngercd, nnd kin gored, nnd vingered, And his lint he nervously fingered. Dr. Leonhnrdt's .
