The Ounthers Improved as they played and at the finish one was heard to re mark that they would like to take the Omaha alleys back to Chicago, as they would be ure to make some records. Bowling dope was all shot to piece by these games, as the first was last and the lust first. Dad Huntington had his pick of men and yet his chosen team did not make as good a showing as the second choice team. The Ounthers showed steadier work than any of the Omaha teams and their first ball 9! times out of 1(10 got the head pin, and although It did not always hit the strike spot. It was always so close that easy spares were left to shoot nt. The first ball seldom went wild. Some of these Ounthers almost make bowling a business and their experience In different alleys all over the country stood In good stead before the large crowds which had a slight ten dency to make the Omaha bowlers a trifle nervous. The Omaha bowler seemed to be aware all the time that they were bowling agalnHt the best In the world and this had considerable to do with their making a poorer showing than wa ex pected or pcorer than they were doped to make by past performance.

Athletic strangers for upward of two years, the uni versities of Nebraska and Kansas have latched up their quarrel and have ugreed to abide together In peace. The break be tween the two institutions followed the an nual foot hall game In Lawrence two years ago last November, in which the Corn huskers were victorious In a thrilling strug gle, the fleet footed Johnny Bender turning the tide In Nebraska' favor by pulling off a sensational seventy-yard run for the only touchdown of the game. Prior to ths contest bitterness had been engendered bv a protest made by Kansas against Bender and Wilson, two of Nebraska' plavers. The Comhuskers stood pat and refused to withdraw the player in Question until Kan sas presented evidence in substantiation of the charges, which were or professionalism. The Jayhawker sulked, but finally waived their protest, only to Issue a pronuncia mento two day following the Lawrence de feat that relations hud been suspended. The rupture had no effect upon the Corn buskern, who promptly picked up a "Hig Nine" teum as an opponent in place of the Jayhawkers, but the loss of the game with Nebraska had a decidedly depressing effect upon athletic at the Lawrence Institution. llssiitlsfaction within the student body at Kansas over the summary action of the athletic board speedily became manifest, and. after a lapse of two years, the Jay hawker board took the Initiative toward a resumption by appointing abrltratort to discuss resumption ami al the same time solicited similar action by Nebraska. The Cornhuskers acquiesced, and the arbiters met in Lincoln today and at once caine to term. Deun Pound of the law school at Ne braska and Maurice Benedict, ex-captaln of the foot ball team, represented Nebraska, while like service for Kansas was per formed by Prof. J. T. Walker and C. O. Plngry. the latter a member of the student bod v. Prof. Walker at the outset was dis posed to express his regrets for what had happened in the past, but Dean Pound as sured tbe visitor that Nebraska wished to forget any such unpleasantries, pre ferring Instead to discuss the future. With this display of liberality and good feeling the arbiters lost no time tn coming to an agreement for a full resumption of re lations. I'nder the term of the agree ment the Jayhawkers are to play basket ball in the Nebraska irmorii as the first contest provided for by the term of peace. Base ball and track will come next In order, to he followed by a foot ball game next fsll on the Nebraska campus. Botli institutions are to conform to the con ference rules governing eligibility. The agreement reached by the arbiters Is not Una!, as t li athletic board of the two schools must meet and approve, hut the latter 1 considered a mere formality. The Kansans also broached the subject of creating a tri-state league to Include Ne braska. Kansas and Missouri. On this the Nehraiikaiis weie not so favorably Inclined. pointing out tnat tor tne (.ornnuiker to play foot ball In Columbia, the seat of LjEER is an effervescent pro duct, most sutifpubl to taint, therrfoft, to retain its lite an Purity it must be kept air proof.
