Saturday on the Cornhusker field and on
the following Friday the annual Fete day

Omaha. Lincoln. Tork and Keurney high

Lincoln- teams should be strong contenders
foe firat honors In the meet Omaha having
an especially well balanced bunch of ath
letes, while Lea Mann, the wonderful Utile
athlete of the Lincoln high achool, la ex
pected to do valiant work for hta school.
Wiley of Tork la another Nebraska athlete
who 1 expected to mske a wonderful
howlng in tha Missouri valley and Fete
day meets.
Those from Abroad.
St. Joseph high achool. East and Went
Ds Moinea high, and the Kansas City
Manuel are the other entries In tha Mis
souri valley meet. IJttle strength Is ex
pected of the Bt. Joseph high, although
they are of unknown quality. Tha two Des
Moinea teams are feared, while Kansas City
Manuel Is known to have a strong aggre
gation. The cinder path at the university
Is fast and some remarkable records are
looked for.
Early Indications point to a record-break-ing
meet on Fete day, as the list of entries
la already much larger than In previous
years. The eligibility committee will hold
a, meeting this week to psss upon the
eligibility of soma of tha prospective en
tries. The question of the eligibility of Les
Mann of the Lincoln high and Luae of the
Beatrice high srhoola has been raised by
some of tha competing schools. Mann
played professional base ball In the Mink
league laat season, It Is claimed, while Luse
la not eligible to compete, it Is claimed,
having played his allotted time as a high
school athlete In all branchee of sport. Both
Mann and Luse are star athletes, each
having ahont aa a gridiron star, as a bas
ketball player and a track athlete.
No Individual Prise,
The elimination of an individual prise
It rotating with the hearty approval of
tha officials and high school authorities,
for It la believed that, this effectually re
moves tha most serious danger of a ntS"
school meet or the tendency of a high
' school athlete to overdo himself. The
other plans for entertainment on fete day
ara progressing nicely and arrangements
are nearly complete for the entertainment
of the high achool visitors. Following the
customary visit at the university grounds,
the high school students will be enter
tained at luncheons at the various fra
ternity house. The freternltiea are also
planning entertainment for the evening.
Nebraska alhlatee ars taking notlea of
the reeorde made by Missouri In track
and field avanta and the Tlera ara eg
pected to ba strong contenders In tha Ml
vouri valley nieet. The wonderful work
f tha Missouri athlete In smashing six
records has aroused the Comhukra'
doubts concerning the outcome of tha an
nual Missouri valley conferenca meet,
which the Coinhuskeis were hopeful of
landing. Kanaa has a strong team and
41 showing of the Tigers Insures a great
three-cornered fight between tha thre
leading schools of the conference.
Larasr Allllo Field.
Mora land was bought reoently by tha
Cornhusker Athletlo board from the sur
plus of funds arising from a successful
foot ball and basket ball season. The
board has been renting two lots at an
enormously high rent for the laat year,
and the members thought it much wiser
to make the Investment before expending
further sums as rent. The land is already
included In a part of tha athletic field.

Tennis Bug Begins
to Stir in Expansive
Rank of Omaha Clubs
Summer Outlook Brightest in Yean
and Courts Already Put Into
Fine Shape.
Crelghton college and the Omaha Field
club will meet upon the tennis courts If
the' plana of the committees of tha two
tennis organlsationa do not go astray. The.
event will bo held aoma time In May," aa
the college dismisses its students early in
June.
Although the Crelghton squad haa shown
up very well this season it la, of course,
no match for such a team of tennis cracks
as the Field club can produce. In all prob
ability either the younger members of the
club will play agalnBt the college lads or
handicaps will be used. It haa been thought
that Nebraska might possibly join and
make It a three-cornered meet, but the
outlook la doubtful, aa the Cornhusker
brixade will be pretty busy until gradua
tion week.
Tennla at tha Omaha Country club this
coming season will be In charge of W. It.
McKeen, Mr. McKeen Is the live wire of
the tennis brigade of tha Country club
and will make tha season an interesting
one at tha club. Ha plana to have aoma
kind of a club tournament this summer,
and tha club will probably provide a prise
list for tha racquet wtelders.
New tennis rules were adopted by the
Field club at a recent meeting. Rule 1
says that courts one and seven are hereby
reserved for the use of the women and
Junior members between tha hours of i
a. m. and 6 p. m., making it possible for
these two classes of players to play In
this time.
Another tennis rule provides that one set
of players shall not monopolise the courts
for a whole afternoon when there Is a
crowd wishing to use them. Three sets ara
to be the limit hereafter when other play
ers are waiting to try their luck across tha
net.
The old rule of only members being ad
mitted has again been adopted by the
Field club and other Omaha clubs will fol
low suit when their seasons open, It is un
derstood. A man haa been stationed at
the gate, and visitors must present cards
or produce other credentials showing a
bona fide membership. It haa been found
necessary to protest the club In this way
from "visitors" who come too oftsn and
never register.. ,
Courts at the Omaha Rod and Gun club,
at the Young Men's Christian association,
tha Diets elub and the three lake clubs
near Omaha ara to ba placed in aha pa this
week so that the members may get out
on them and play soon. These clubs open

MINNKAPOLIS. Minn.. May . -(Special )
Interest In the track events at the Uni
versity of Mlnneaota the coming week ren
ter In the Nebraska dual meet on Satur
day afternoon with the freshman meet with
Carlton at Northfleld tomorrow as a aide
issue. Not much Is known at present
about Nebraska. Tha Cornhuskers have
been making soma pretty good showings
with tha Missouri valley schools this spring,
but a definite Una on their possibilities haa
not reached Mlnneaota. Tha Gopher men
ara feeling confident since their defeat of
Wisconsin a week ago by such a decisive
score that they can not only take care of
Nebraska on Saturday, but will alao take
Iowa Into camp a week later.
Tha team which will meat Nebraska will
not ba materially different from tha one
that won from Wisconsin a week ago. The
men have all been before the eligibility
committee and It la now too late to enter
any more. Several men who passed the
committee did not enter tha Wisconsin meet
because they were not in form, but they
expect to go against Nebraska Saturday.
All of the men are training hard In the
hopes of being sent into tha conference to
represent Minnesota.
What Oum Ho Think I
Coach Grant still feels that the Gophers
are a little weak in field events In spite
of tha fact that tha Gophers took nearly
double Wisconsin's points In tha fields.
Gansale did not make good in the Badger
meet because be practiced a few daya with
the twelve-pound hammer and tha ten
pound drew him out of the circle. He has
been working hard since the Sadger meet
and should ba good for a place Saturday.
Jamea Walker, of wide foot ball fame, haa
been working on the hammer and discus
for several weeks and feels competent to
enter against Nebraska. Wlpperman, Smith
and Frank have been getting out steadily
and Increasing their .effective distance.
Tha freshman team will leave Minneapolis
early tomorrow morning for Northfleld
where they will meet Carlton college In
the afternoon. Tha meet will ba run off
in time for tha team to leave Carlton and
return to Minneapolis before evening. Coach
Grant feela confident that tha youngsters
will turn tha trick in tha running events,
but feels that they are weak in tha field.
The following men will make this trlpi
Bplnk, high Jump; Gothan, high Jump and
pola vault; Johnson, Cummlngs, mile run;
Llndebarg, Karnopsky, Ferklns, Stone,
half-mile; Bob and Palmer Hughea, Kar

dash; Webster, hurdles; Sawyer, hpt put,
Iowa Game Before Moot,
Iowa and Mlnneaota will meet In bass
ball In two games, Friday and Saturday
afternoon. The Friday game will be called
at 1.30 and tha Saturday game at 1:1. so
that It will be over before tha Nebraska
track meet la called at 3:30. The policy of
the athletic management of charging a
small admission, which will admit to both
ball game and track meet will be adhered
to Saturday.
Walter L. Stewart of Detroit is coaching
the Iowa nine this year. He played sec
ond base for Iowa for tha last thraa years
and was captain In 1309 and 1910.. In addl
tion ha has bad the advantage or a year
with a professional team. Tha Hawkeyea
started practice March 1, and have tha
further advantage of earlier outdoor train
Ing than the Gophers were able to get.
Schmidt, third baaeman for Iowa, is
tha only member of last year's Infield to
be on the 1911 team. Captain Hook will
play behind the bat, Wright at aecend. and
Ferris at short. Wright played the outfield
last season. Mericle and Williams will also
play In the outfield. Alcorn Is tha only
veteran pitcher that Iowa haa this year,
and will probably be seen In one of the
games against the . Gophers. Waggoner,
Strlckler, Hermanca and Baird ara the
other fllngera carried on the squad.
Expects Ho Haa Beat Nine.
Coach Clarke expects tjiat the Gopher
team, which will be sent agalst Iowa, will
ba tha best since tha beginning of tha year,
McGovarn and Anderson are back In tha
game and materially strengthen the In
field. It Is possible that Smith may be'put
at second and Captain Hartnett shifted to
his old position in the outfield. Tha Gophers
are up against it for pitchers. Sutton, Wan
leu, Pickering and Victor ara on the staff
at present, but do not seem to ba able to
pitch often enough to fill out the needs of
the schedule.

A base ball challenge haa lued from
th athlete of the University of Michigan
Aiumn) association directed especially
toward the alumni of Cornell university,
but wlda enough to include any college
alumni organization that ha faith in it

the long forgotten clamor of the bleachers
and th laurel of the diamond, asked the
alumni lu back them In th deft and
committee was named to arrange for the

The contest is likely to be played upon
tha field day of the Omaha Bar associa
tion, which la scheduled for some Saturday
this month. In appointing the team Presi

Varied Programs to Accomodate All
Have Been Prepared at
Each Place.
Golf and tennis and all the Joys of out-
oor club life make their triumphal entry
nto Omaha next Saturday when tha Omaha
Field club and the Omaha Country club
hold their annual openings for the year
1. Socially also the advent of tha ath
letlo man and the "summer girl" into
prominence will be one of the big affairs
f the season.
The two big clubs that have for many
eara past fostered tha golf and tennla of
Omaha generally hold their annual open
ings on different date, but next Saturday
both organlsationa will start tha year with
a varied list of sporting events during the
ay followed by table d'hote dinner and a
brilliant social evening at tha clubhouses.
Pine late laat fail workmen have been
busy on both tha Country elub and tha
Field club golf courses, building over parts
f the courses, renovating greens and tees,
and generally improving tha facilities for
play at cost of aeveral thousand dollars.
Work on tha Field club la still proceeding
on the new undulating green of tha course.
Blghteen-hole play, using tha handicaps
n force at tha close of laat Mason, will ba
enjoyed by the golfers Saturday. Two
prizes will ba put up at tha Field elub for
the opening and two or three for tha win
ners at the Country club. Medal play will
ba the scoring.
It's going to work a little hard on tha
members of both these popular plaooa this
ear. Heretofore tha "repeaters" havo
been able to attend opening day festivities
at each on following Saturdays, but this
year it will have to ba choice by a coin tosa
aa to where ha will spend tha day. It la
rumored that a band of those who belong
to both have evolved tha brilliant plan of
attending one party for tha dinner and
tha early evening and embarking In their
autoa and arxeding to tha other club for
tha balance of fun to be had.
Tennla will open formally at tha Field
club next Saturday. Tha eourta were In
shape yesterday and many raquot fiends
were on hand for a trial of them, but tha
real opening oomea a week from tha pree
tica day. Tha big street paving roller of
Hugh Murphy was placed on tha plowed
up grounds last week and aoon reduced
the seven courts to a fine state of hard
ness. It haa not been decided whether any
prises will bs placed for tha opening tennla.
Tennla players will also ba busy at tha
Country club, but golf la tha big sport
there.
Dancing will follow tha dinner In tha
evening.
