BADGER vs.. GOPHER
Old Rivals Will Meet in Basket Ball
Contest at Varsity Armory
Tonight.
Wisconsin Has a Strong Team and
Hopes to Wipe Out Defeats Of
Past Years.

Minnesota and Wisconsin, the old rivals
in all branches of athletic sports, will
meet in a basket ball contest this evening
in the university armory. While Wiscon-
sin has usually beaten Minnesota in track
athletics .and baseball, and has broken
even during. the last four years on foot
ball, the gophers have record Of UNI
broken victories for the last three years
in basketball.
Wisconsin claims to have much
stronger team this year than the uni
versity has ever sent out before. The
badgers. are confident that they will turn
the tables and administer defeat to Min
nesota tonight.
Minnesota has a veteran team this sea-
son, and has had no trouble in winning
all its games to date A succession of
easy victories, however, has caused a
relaxa ton on the part of the regulars, and
their play during the last fortnight in
practice has not been of the first order.
The second team has frequently defeate
the varsity in the practice games, and
it is possible that one or more of the
/ subs will be given chance to might. The
second team men are playing in excel
lent form and several of them are con-
sidered almost if not quite the equals Of
tthe first team men.
/ The badger team arrived in Minnea polls
this morning and is at the Nicollet hotel.
