GYMNASIUM NOTES.
The prospect for good baso ball and
track teams is very good. The number
of students entering for these teams is
so largo that accommodations cannot
be given them at the gymnasium.
The Farmers' and Merchants' insur
ance company has placed a ?50 silvor
cup for the winners in the state inter
collegiate track meet.
The physical department met a diffi
culty last week in giving T. L. Tyson
an examination. Tyson was taking
the test for strength of back and legs
and had the machine going toward the
500 mark when it broke. Stronger
machinery will have to be provided
for Nebraska men. Such instruments
may do for eastern schools, but not for
men like Tyson.
Bnsket Ball Manager Hewitt has
scheduled a game of basket ball with
the Kansas university to be played at
the university gymnasium March 2.
This will be the best gftme of the sea
son and every student should aid in
making it a success. It will also be
the first interstate game ever played
here. We should remember Kansas at
foot ball and our basket ball game
should be as well supported.
At n meeting of the university sen
ate last Friday it was decided that fel
lowship students were eligible for ath
letic teams. In consequence Joel Steb
bins has been placed on the university
basket ball team.
Twenty-eight schools have entered
for the interscholastic athletic con
test. The board of control, of which
Dr. Hastings of the university is sec
retary, will meet in Lincoln February
12 to arrange time and place of meet
ing. ALUMNI GAME.
Opinions of an alumni foot ball
game are still coming in. Dr. Henry
B. Ward speaks as follows:
"The suggestion made In your edi
torial of recent date regarding assistant
graduate coaching and an alumni
game in the fall deserves the heartiest
support. It may not be known that for
a long time the athletic board has en
deavored to excite interest enough
among recent graduates of foot ball
fame to secure their services in assist
ing with the coaching. This, of course,
assists In the development of individ
ual positions, while tho head coach do
votes his main attention to team work.
Without such Individual instruction
tho method of play in a particular posi
tion must bo gradually developed by
successive players, and tho team finds
Itself set back almost to tho beginning
by tho doparturo of a number of good
men. It Is unfortunately true, how
ever, that those graduates boBt fitted
to assist tho university In this partic
ular have displayed but littlo Interest
in tho institution after leaving it.
Time, however, is building up a better
feeling among tho alumni and I think
an alumni game Is likoly to develop
further interest.
"Another point should not bo forgot
ten in tho relation of alumni to the
gamo among eastern institutions. So
far as I know, it has boon universally
true that they have frowned upon con
tentions between various organizations
and have aided strongly In developing
a sentiment of work for the university,
which must come with greater forco if
our athletic enterprises are to bo
brought to a satisfactory condition.
"HENRY B. WARD."
Will Ilnyward of Nebraska City
writes that It would bo an excellent
means of nrouslng enthusiasm, but ho
feels that it would be hard to get
enough alumni together to piny the
game. George Klndlor, cx-cnptaln of
tho base ball team, deems tho plan as
a most oxcollont one.
WHEN I'M BROKE.
All tho world scorns out of kilter,
When I'm broke;
Through my brain 111 feelings filter,
When I'm broke;
As they hustle, belter skelter,
While I dig, and grind, and swelter,
Till In vnnlshed hopes I welter,
When I'm broke.
I have just one consolation,
When I'm broke;
And It cheers to exultation,
When I'm broke;
Neither power of man nor nation
Can Increase in degradation
My financial situation,
When I'm broke.
All my lessons In n flurry,
When I'm broke;
Make my recitations blurry,
When I'm broke;
But in this my woes I bury
"Let tho other follow worry"
And I smile to watch him skurry,
When I'm broke.
