Perns Gets Decision
Over Harry Brewer
KANSAS CITY. Jan. 1. Clarence
"Wildcat" FerriB of Kansas City, claimant
the tho welterweight championship of the
world was awarded the decision over
Harry Brewer of Kansas City, after ten
rounds of furious fighting hero this
afternoon.
Ferns was tho aggressor throughout tho
fight nnd ho had the advantage In every
round except the first, when honors wero
about even. Brewer was In trouble In
the second round nnd In tho last two
rounds he was In evident distress. Ferns
fought savagely In tho last round, while
Brewer made a desperate effort to save
himself from punishment. Neither man
was knocked down during the contest.
And still another school was dlsap-;
pointed because an Invitation to Its foot
ball playeirt to attend the banquet which

went astray. The proper persons nt
Aurora did not receive the invitation !
mailed to that city, nnd the foot ball
youngsters grieved that they were not
asked to conic to Omaha to mix with the
big crowd that Is going to make merry I
nt thn festive board and In tho cabaret
rhow next Wednesday. But the Corn
husker alutnnl, wanting every high school
In the stute represented, Immediately sent
nn invitation to the team to como here
und b'o among the guests of the Nebraska
alumni. Not a school Is to be ovet-;
looked, nnd the Nebraska nlumnl are
anxious to hear from nn' institution that
has not yet received a bid.
To have neglected Aurora, tho local
alumni committed says, would have been
almost unpardonable, because tho Aurora
luds had a very good eleven last foil
and proved thetnselves one of the best
teams In the state. Beatrice, one of the
best elevens In the middle west, declares
that their game with Aurora was one of
tho best played of nil tho contests In
.which they participated during the fall.
One Price on Tickets.
The alumni committee has notified all
Omaha alumni that no tickets for the

Because of the Increased, cost of the big
dinner and entertainment It has been
necessary to make all tickets Jj. The
banquet is tq bo better than originally
planned and more guests are coming than
were nt first expected. The committee
priglnally planned to havcthe most loyal
grads pay S3, and to let "those who did
not feel they could afford to pay tho
five pay $2. But In order to meet the
expense of the big entertainment the ono
price waa placed on all tickets.
