Saturday evening, 7:30, April 30, the girls
of the gymnasium will hold an indoor pen
tathlon in the armory. This is something
entirely unique and will be the most inter
esting indoor athletic contest ever witnessed
in Nebraska. If anyone doubts that there
are athletes among girls of the University
"Gym" he will have his doubts dispersed at
this contest. One of the first athletes in Ne
braska admits that in at least one event a
co-ed has lowered his record. There are sev
eral events in which the girls can give even
our trained men pointers. If any one doubts
it let him come and see.
Miss Alberta Spurck's base-ball "men" will
play an exhibition game of indoor base-ball.
The teams have been in careful training and
the game will be close and exciting. Let tho
man who is so conceited as to think only men
can slide for bases come, ho will find there
are others.
The girls are giving this contest partly in
the interests of track athletics and partly to
secure funds to bring tho North-Western
girls' basket-ball team here next fall. We
owe the girls our hearty support in this enter
prise. They have done more for the cause of
Field Day contest, which is to determine athletics in this Universitv this vnr , tw
who is to represent us in the inter-collcgiate boys have. If the bovs would show th ,im.
jneet, will occur May 7. The following men piuck ttnd patriotism, our athletics would
reach the plane they ought to be on in a very
short time.

events:
