J earn returned to winning form last even
In tn the gymnasium of the Young Men's
Christian association, defeating tho Ne
braska Telephone qulntot by the scoro of
24 to 11. Tho first halt of the game
was one of the fastest exhibitions yet
seen on the floor In Omaha. When the
whistle blew signalling tho end of this
half the score stood 11 to 10 In favor of
the creamery team, but during tho sec
ond half the phone men lacked pep and
permitted the Fairmonts to run up thir
teen points.

for letting the players go their limit, yet
np rough playing was tolerated, thereby
making the game Interesting to tho 400
people who crowded tho gymnasium to
Its fullest capacity.
Two Tennis Tied.
The result of last nights game leaves
the Fairmont and phone teams tied for
tho leadership of tho Commercial Basket
Hall league which will end with thl

been completed. The winners will be

dividual player will receive a handsomely
engraved broniso medal.

the Scenery Very Annoying
Bellevue Will Have
Inter-Olass Games
The regular Bcllevuo basket ball season
being completed, the classes of tho col
lege and academy havo arranged for an
intcrclass series for the championship of
the school. Tho four college classes each
will be represented by a team, and tho
four classes of tho academy by the reg
ular "prep" squad, who have been play
ing among tho high school teams of the
vicinity. Tho "preps" crhaps stand as
good a chance of winning tho scries as
any of the upper classs, as their tnm
has been playing good ball all winter
and at tlmea gave tho varsity squad stiff
practice.
None of tho collcgo classes will have
over two, or at most, three men who
have been on tho regular squad all sen
son and tho results are vory much a
matter of conjecture.
The series will be played the last of
this week nnd tho first of next in the new
basket ball floor, which has Just been
completed In tho apartment of tho now
gymnasium devoted to tho plunge and
baths. The space enclosed Is seventy
five ' feot long by thirty feet wldo and
will afford ample room for basket nnll.
Tho floor Is only a temporary one, bolng
built over the plunge, which was recently
completed during tho warm weather nr-1
will bo removed next fall when the re
mainder of tho .building In completed.
This Intnrclass tournament wilt end tho
basket ball Benson and attention will bo
turned to track and base ball. It Is
planned to enter a track team In tiie
Omaha Indoor moct and the first outdoor
competition will cdme shortly after, the
season being opened by the annual Inter
class nioet, which Is ono of the big evontu
of tho year.

governmental activities so far us they af
fect the army In and near Omaha, Join
L. Kennedy and Victor Rosewater, ie
Inforccd by Luther Drake of the Mer
chants National bank, today had an In
terview with Major General Allshlro,
chief of the quartermaster's corps.
During the course of the conversation
General Allshlre stated to the representa
tives of the Commercial club that bo
looked upon Omaha as a most Important
tactical point and that It was tho In
tention of his department to enlarge the
usefulness of. the quartermaster's .depot
at Omaha Into a field supply denot just
as soon" as. congress appropriated the nec
essary funds to carry out the army re
organization order recently Issued.
Mr. Rose'water suggested that Fort
Omaha mlght.be utilized as a model bar
rack, such as Is In course of construc
tion at Honolulu, but General Allshlre
diplomatically said he was not Informed
what was In the mind of the chief of
staff. General Wood, along theso lines.
"Of course' ho said, "as congress
would have to appropriate the mone,y for
such a barrack-. Its location might depend
upon the activity of a state's delega
tion," which hint Mr. Rosewater was not
slow In grasping.
While General Allshlre could not prom
ise anything In the way of new barracks
or quarters at either Fort Crook or Fort
Omaha, the cntlro trend of his talk was
favorable to Omaha, and given the monvy
the Gate City will be most liberally taken
care of. '
The Omaha contingent also had an in
terview with Colonel Scrlven, acting chief
signal officer and awaiting confirmation
by the senato to be brigadier general.
Colonel Scrlven has. ambitious plans for
Fort Omaha and he did not hesitate to
say .that If he could get the money ho
would make Fort Omaha the repair sta
tion for the signal corps, using tae fort
for a field company, a "recruiting station
for the corps and at school for enlisted
men.
He would convert the old administration
building into a big repair shop where
many men would be employed not only In
making new apparatus for tho Bervlce,
but in repairing and refitting ob well.
Colonel Scrlven Is n firm believer In the
dirigible balloon and as Fort Omaha has"
the best liydrogcu gas. plant In the coun
try and qne of tho finest In the world,
he believes that Fort Omaha will In the
not" distant future be a most Important
station to experiment with dirigibles, Ger
many having finally built a dirigible
which will carry twenty men and two
light field guns, staying In the air from
thirty td forty hours.
Colonel Scrlven arguos that If flcrmany
can achieve this result America will not
be far behind.
