for , the Event.
Unique Ideas of decoration, interesting ex
hibits, and other noveltlea of automobiles
shows are to be Imported Into Omaha for
the sixth annual Auto Show to be held at
the Auditorium February 30 to 25. .The five
directors of the Omaha Automobile Dealers'
aaaociaflun will attend the big auto show
to be held In Chicago thla week and bring
any Ideas they may gather there for the
Omaha event. ' ...
In addition to admittedly stealing any
Ideas formulated for other shows In the
country the brains of the Omaha men are
also working hard' for new Ideas of their
own to make the Omaha exhibit worth at
tending. At the present time Secretary
Clarke Powell Is negotiating with the
Hawaiian singers now at the Lan Show to
return at the time of the Automobile Show
and sing again to Omaha audiences. Music
by one of the Omaha orchestra's wilt alao
be supplied each afternoon and evening at
the show.
Details of arrangements for all kinds of
novel Inventions for necessities and com
forts of the automobile of 111 are being
carefully planned by. the Omaha dealers.
Each of the dealers Is working hard and
bwnlug up the midnight oil preparing
several separate and distinctly new ad
dress to be poured Into the ear of the
prospective buyer at the show. - -
Many tletrtca.
Some of the moat popular of the exhibits
to be shown at the Auditorium are to be
the different kinds of electric cars being
built for the wife and sister. When auto
moblllng sprang Into popular favor the
women who drove was regarded as far
more mannish than the suffragette, leader
of today. But now with the convenient
little electrics for the use of women on
shopping, theater, women visitors at the
show are- to be catered to.
Another of the claaa of exhibits that will
be Interesting to the man who baf followed
automobile Inventlona and Improvements
will be the many comforts for all kinds of
tars. The 19 U models of pleaatire cars are
almost ail the embodiment of comfort, and
both winter and aummer models will be In
high evidence.
Preparations for the showing of the al
most wonderful truck and commercial Ve
hicles of all kinds are going on among the
dealers who handle these lines of cars.
After visiting the show It will be a firm
man who will not be tempted to try out
the value of an automobile delivery service

Fish Exhibit Gives
View of One of the
Nebraska Resources
H. P. Runion Has Private Hatcheries
with Capacity of Fifty Thousand
Bass a Year.
The flah exhibits at the Land show rep
resented one of the resources of Nebraska
but little known to the general public- H.
P. Runion, who has been one of the
force In charge of the flah displays, Is the
proprietor of a fish ranch at Benklemkn,
Neb. .At this establishment he raises trout,
basa and goldfish.
Among the purchasers ot fish from the
Berikleman ranch Is Patten, the wheat
king and famous market aueculator. Mr.
Patten has purchased 41,000 flah for the
stocking of a private park lake In New
Mexico. '
The Benkleman ranch contains aeveral
acres of ponds, all under control, so that
they may be drained and flooded at will.
The capacity of the plant Is estimated at
the production of 000.000 fry per season.
Mr. Kunlon specialises on the basa family.
Several varieties of bass adapted to dif
ferent waters "are reareW at his establish
ment. At the land show the visitors were shown
a tiny hatchery In the process of turning
out trout fry Just as they are at the state
hatchery and at the Benkleman plant.
"The rearing of fish can easily be made
profitable In any place where there Is suf
ficient water," said Mr. Runion. "They
respond to care and attention Just like
another crop."

Omaha Win.
Omaha's victory or defeat In the National
Clay Court Tennis championship meet for
1S11 will come this week, the meeting to de
cide the question being held In New. York,
February 1. Conrad YoJiug Of the Omaha
Field club leases for. New York Monday
and he wilt make aJ-mlghty fight tq bring
the event to Omaha for the second time.
For weeks the tennis committee of the
Omaha Field club has been working among
the tennis men of the country, boosting this
city for the meet. Besides a number of
proxies gathered from many of the clubs
belonging to the National Lawn Tennis as
sociation., the committee haa the promise
of various other cities that, they will work
fo Omaha for the event. '
Des Moines,. Sioux City and other Iowa
cities will help In pulling this direction, and
Mitchell. Sioux Falls and Yankton, - S. D.,
are representing that state In boosting
for Omaha. John P. Bailey of Oklahoma,
a stanch Omaha supporter, has been work
ing hard there and Dr. P. B. Hawk of
Illinois has been aiding the Omaha men.
Reports, In fact, ' from all the middle
west and the far west are for keeping the
event in this city. A general feeling that
there ought to be some big event In the
west has aided Immesurably. In the senti
ment for Omaha for the second meet and
another potent reason for the votes coming
in for this city Is the result of the meet
of 1810. Every player who came to play
In the clay court at the Omaha Field club
wants to com again,' and Is Influencing
his club accordingly.
Other atlon to Decide. '
The question of. the place of holding
the clay court championship meet Is only
one of the big points to be settled at the
meeting. In the number and Importance
of the questions relating to national ten
nis, which are to come up at the annual
meeting of 1911. It can be pointed out aa
easily the moat Important meeting of
years.
Heretofore eaatern tennis players have
held the controlling reins In the association,
holding the big events In the east, and
having their men on the officers and exe
cutive committee lists. Now California
has risen up and declares that as that
state haa produced a number of the betX
players of the day. It should have represen
tation on the national executive commit
tee, and have some voice tn the govern
ment. And along with this demand comes
a report that the place of holding the an
nual grass championship may be changed
from Newport. The many players in New
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio
declare that Newport is too far away and
ill supplied with equipment to handle the
big event and It should be placed In one
of the foregoing statea.
An all day session will be held by the ten
r.le meeting thla year ' for the flrat time
In the history of the association. The
meeting takes place February 3, in New
York.

IOWA CITY. Ia., Jan. 28. (Special. )-In
the Intercollegiate shoot againat Perdue
university here thla week the rifle team of
the University of Iowa scored 1,891 points
and F. Bruins, "a member of the team,
broke the world's Intercollegiate individual

of 1891 Is the highest that haa been fired
in the United States Intercollegiate league
thla year and higher than any mark of
one year ago. It is but 109 points distant
from a perfect score and Is considered
here nothing short of phenomenal.
F. Bruins with his score of 197 easily
broke the world's record of 1 points, his
being two points higher. What Is con
sidered even more remarkable is the fact
that his standing score was higher than
hla prone, a thing seldom heard of in

FISH AND GAME REPORTS OUT
Biennial Statement of Nebraska Com
missioners Put Out.
RECOMMENDS SPORT LICENSES
Ask for Open Qoall and Tnrtle Dove
team and Opening- of thicken
and Dock Shootlnar Sep
tember 1.
Nebraska sportsmen, fishermen and
hunters will be vitally Interested In the
biennial report of the Game and Fish
commission of the state. The report has
been compiled by Game Warden Dan
Gellus ( and Flah Commissioner T. J.
O'Brien and contains a number of sug
gestions for the betterment of these two
great sports In Nebraska.
Recommendation for the Issuing of a
license to each and every hunter In the
state la a part of the report. The Idea
Is that resident hunters shall be charged
SI a year for licenses and non-resident $10.
The money raised In this way would be
turned Into a fish and game fund and be
used for tho propagation of the two sports.
The argument of both Is that the present
fund Is Inadequate and the process of
conservation will be greatly helped by the
SiO.OOO which this syBtem would, bring In.
The report Is sent to Governor Shallcn
berger, who Is the official head of the
department, and 'the two commissioners
hope for some action on at least the rec
ommendations on the license question.
Besides the various recommendations
there Is a complete report on the distribu
tion of fish in Nebraska waters during
the two years. Wall eyed pike to the
number of 6,600,000 were distributed in 1909,
brook and rainbow . trout to the number
of 229,000; lake trout, 14,600; large mouthed
black bass, 133,000 young and 87,814 older;
crapples. 21,44; bullheads, 22.TO0; catfish,
9.000; perch, 14.600; sunfish. 1,050, and 9,600
bullfrogs. v
Distribution Is Large,
The 1910 distribution was somewhat
larger, except the pike. Brook trout were
placed In up to 300,000; rainbow trout, 183,
000; wall-eyed pike, 2,600,000; black bass,
191,450; rock bass, sunfish and , crapple,
14,476; perch, 66,850; catfish, 29,360, German
carp. S00; bullheads, 38,476; bullfrogs, 13,000.
Mr. O'Brien reported that as a general
rule the fish In the state were doing well
and that a high standard of fishing could
be kept up with the co-operation of the
fishermen of the state In protecting the
flah under the laws passed.
One of the things asked for by Game
Warden Gellus Is that a short open quail
season be adopted because the hunters
did not respect the closed season and
many of the birds perish In the cold win
ter. That it would be a wlae provision to
change the opening day of the prairie
chicken shooting from October 1 to Septem
ber 1 is another thing recommended. Re
ports from the regions where the birds
are found, indicate that the birds are In
good condition for hunting on Septem
ber 1 and that by October 1 the birds are
leaving the country.
Duck Leave Karl.
Ducks and other water fowl ' also leave
Nebraska before the shooting seaaon be
gins, claims the commissioner and the
shootlntr season should be advanced on
these birds from September 15 to September
1. An open season on turtle doves, which
are of little benefit to the farmer. Is also
asked. The birds are allowed to go o the
south each year and the people there shoot
them because there Is no closed seaaon at
all kept on them there.
The warden anticipates an attempt to
change our present laws on pursuing game
birds out of season by the men. Interested
in training hunting dogs. A this training
I done in July and August the small birds
would be killed and the stat would be
overrun with men with dogs from every
state In the union if It were made open.
He Is also opposed to tire changing of the
law referring to the selling of flah and
game caught, as this is the law which pre
vents market hunters from killing off the
game.
Out of 177 pcopl arrested for violating
the game law 152 were convicted In the laat
two year and thirty-seven of these served
JaU sentence. Twenty-five hundred live
fUh and M0 gain Mrde were found to have
been c-auKl't In Illegal traps and were con

LINCOLN. Neb., Jn. .--(Special)
Another wnok hna pmsed durlnn which It
was confidently expected that there would
be some developments In the oik -hshlp
problem for tho slate univeis ly athletic
board, but the solution Ik hs fur iiwity aa
ever. ,
The real reason for the ilclny of the
board waa nml public Fihl.iy by S
retarv It. O. CluPP. "Our bourd has hud
numerous applications from men who stand
high In the athletic world where the poli
cy of eliminnuna; pniiiMiiii
from athletics Is not followed. nni. we
ars lonklnK for, and when I say wc' T
am speaking for all of the Hlx faculty
member of the board. Is a man who la In
sympathy with tho movement to do awny
with everything that smacks of professb
allam. "For Instance, the sooutlnK proposition
Is one which has troubled the bc-nrd for
aome time and H-fter a bitter fljtht among
the members, the board has tnken a stand
againat the seontlnii Idea. We want a
man who will abide by that dM Won and
who favors the abolishment of scouting
by the schools In tho Missouri valley.
"What .la to be the primary qualifica
tion of the new all year coach of the
university?" waa aaked Dr. Clapp. He
said that the choice of the board would
rcat primarily upon the question of tho
character of the man. He must fall In with
the movement among the faculty members

Foot Kail .Most Popular.
"How about football?" Dr. Clapp admit
ted that football was the most popular
sport, but said that even the selection
of the coach would not depend upon pro
ficiency In this department of sport. The
first consideration is 'the elimination of
professionalism, the second ability to de
velope a winning football team. ,
The meeting of the board has not been

Out of Date Ball.
Nebraska's base ball players are planning
to stop school the second semester and will
leave for Oklahoma, where several of them,
have openings on hired teams. This la the
result of the action of the Missouri valley
conference In standing by the summer base
ball rule and the feeling among the Corn
huakera that the only honorable thing
which the board can do now is to with
draw from the league lnaofar aa base ball
is concerned.
"Ole" Metcalfe, the captain of Vie team,
who was not In school the first semeater,
but Intended to reKlster the second half,
has changed his mind and wilt Join tha
bunch going to Oklahoma.
May ftill Have a Tenui...
Even though the veterans leave, it is not
positively assured that base ball Is doomed
at Nebraska. Since the Ire of the members
of the board has cooled, there is a feeling
that Nebraska could live up to the rule and
put out a team equal to compete with the
other school In the league at least. At
least half a dozen of the members of the
freshmen team last year will not be af
fected by the ruling of the conference in
regard to Rummer base ball and a number
of ' the upper classmen am still eligible.
The freshmen eleven was the strongest In
the history of the school and It Is thought
that by drawing from this largely, a credit
able team can be developed.
Ilaaket Mall Team Weak.
The northern trip of the basket ball squad

feared that the three games played with

bers of the squad left Thursday afternoon
and will reach Lincoln late h-iinday night.
Examinations begin promptly Monday
morning for the seineater. After a severe
trip like that in Minnesota, the player urn
ID no condition to take examinations, and
three of the member fear that tlioy may
