University Girls
Play Basket Ball
Hard practice among the co-eds at the
University of Omaha has done wonders
during the last week In putting their
basket ball team In shape for the com
ing season. Undor -tho direction of Miss
Bankhart the co-eds have been faith
fully practicing until now they can play
almost as welt as some of the boys. The
girls are enthusiastic over basket ball
and are showing a great deal of Inter
est In this form of sport.
A number of co-eds havo shown ex
ceptional Individual ability at tho floor
game, while the team In general has
been making wonderful Improvement.
MIm Nellie Wood, captain and right
guard of the team, and Miss May Leach
are perhaps th'e brat players on the squad,
having had considerable basket ball ex
perience before coming to the University
players from tho Medio club at the Unlver-
their high school teams.
The first game of the co-eds will be
played Friday, when they meet a team
of the lower class girls at the university.
utner teams at the university of pmaha
have been practicing steadily for somn
time, Tho Medics, n team composed of
players from the Media club at the Unl
slty of Omaha, seem to have the .stronR
est team at the school. Most of their
players played on the varsity team last
season and as a result have had more
experience thw the othor players. Class
teams have also been organised at the
school, and a league consisting of all
these tcama has -been formed. The open
ing of this league Is to take place Friday
evening, when tho Freshmen meet tho
Medics.
flo far varsity practice has not started
at the school. It was thought that a
basket ball coach would be secured by
Monday, so that practice would start
on that day. There Is an abundance of
new material on hand for a fast team
this year, prospects having never been
brighten for eome time. A basket ball
captain will be elected aa aoon as the
varsity practice commence.
Country Club After
Golf Tournaments
The Omaha Country club has filed ap
plication with the secretary of the West
era Oolf association for the award of
two of the three big golf tournament
which are held yearly under the auspices
of the association. The Omaha, club has
applied for the award of the amateur
championship tournament and the
Olympic cup competition.
But two other clubs besides the Coun
try club have applied for the two
tournaments. A Cleveland club and a
0 rand Rapids, Mich., club are bidding1
for the same two tournaments. Chancsa
for Omaha to secure one or the other of
the tournaments are excellent, as the
Omaha, club ts conceded to have one of
the finest courses In the country.
The award will be made at the annual
meeting of the association at Chicago
January t.

Denies Athletics
Have Deserted tlie
Players' Fraternity
NEW YORK, Dec lO.-Presidcnt David
L. FulU of the Base Ball Players' fra
ternity, Issued a statement tonight deny
ing the report that the Philadelphia
Athletics aa a team or as individuals had
deserted the fraternity.
FulU said:
Contrary to the report circulated today
that the Athletics had deserted the fra
ternity I can say without the slightest
danger of contradiction that there have
been no defections from our organiza
tion from any source. We havo known
all along Just where the Athletics stood
and their attitude today Is Just the same
as It has been for months. It Is true they
did not sign our petitions, being the only
team of the thirty in the fraternity which
did not do so, but their failure was due
to the prc-occupatlon Incident to a suc
cessful pennant fight and a world's sc
ries and not to any hostility to our re
quests. The report that they opposed our pe
tition because they had Ho grievances
and did not want to appear In a hostile
attitude toward Mr, Mack, portrays them
in a very selfish light as though utterly
callous to the hardships of otliers. I
think that this statement is exceedingly
unfair to them, and In view of Mr.
Mack's attitude is so illogical as to
brand it untrue on Its face Mr. Mack
has already expressed himself as In fa
vor of many of our requests and I am
quite sure he does not look upon the pe
tition as antagonistic to him in any sense.
It is, therefore, quite apparent that his
players could have no causo to do so.
To those who understand the situation
the report coming at this time Is some
what signlflcanU We havo expected for
a long time attempts of this kind to
lessen the strength of our fraternity and
months ago the players were well warned
against them. I should not be surprised
to see this report denied by the Philadel
phia players themselves, thereby turning
It Into another boomerang.

WILL NOT ALLOW DEPUTIES
TO ENTER MINE LEVELS
BINGHAM, Utah, Dec. 10. Although
miners worked today without fear of be
ing harmed In parts of tho Utah-Apex
mine, no sheriff or deputy has penetrated
the tunnels In search of Ralph Lopiz,
slayer of six men, since yesterday.
A reward of 31,000 offered by the state
for the capture of the desperado added
to tho eagerness of the deputies to re
sume the search that was discontinued
when Sheriff Smith decided that Lopez
had not succumbed to tho gases generated
to kill him last week.
The sheriffs In council late today de
cided not to allow tho deputies to re
enter the mine or to attempt further
smudging. Their plan Is merely to keep
guard at the exits Until Lopez Is starved
out or until no doubt remains that he
cither is dead or has escaped. Then the
mine will be jsearched thoroughly.
