Active Members of the Association
Get Ready for n Busy SUM
mer of Sport.

On last Friday night the first steps were
taken by the members of the Young Mems
Christian association toward the active
participation Of the association in the out
of-door summer sports. A general meeting
was held IN the association rooms, which
was attended by It's members and the rou-
tine work of preparation was taken up.
Dehnite announcement was made OF the
fact that there would be facilities for ten
mis-. base ball and track and field work.
While the three branches are all under
the direction OF the athletic department OF
the association. the men we're gathered
into their respective sections and that part
Of the work pertaining directly TO each
branch Of sport turned over to its sec
tion. The sections met separately and
talked over the work and will elect mex
week a committed TO formulate rules and
regulations for the proper carrying on OF
the sections.

men in the tennis section are old players
and II Is probable that the remainder
necessary to make up the limit Of 100 in
the section will be recruited from the ADLER
players. The middle OF this week will
see the four courts completed and the play
ers hard at 1t. Rules will be formulated
which will limit the number OF games that
a man can play at one stretch on the
grounds, and this will make II possible for
playing to be INDUCED in by all OF the
members at almost any time with the ex-
ception. perhaps. Of Saturday afternoon.
Talk was also strong for tournaments
among the association players during the
summer, as we'll as representation in any
and all other tournaments that 1t is posi-
BILE for the association to enter. While the
men are not. as a whole, as strong a class

Two important additions have been made
to the Townsend crowd the last week.
"old Timer" James Bell has registered in

Hewitt, who was captain Of the basket
ball team, is out trying to make the
hurdles. Hurdle racing is not a very i'm
portant event and men to try for 1t are
few. Mouck has also been training for
the hurdles. Morse, one OF the crack
pitchers Of the varsity team. has come out
to do the broad jump. Having failed to
make satisfactory arrangements for a meet
with Northwestern and Minnesota univer-
stiles, Manager Walton has begun negotia-
lions to get the Knox college track team
to come to Lincoln. The track team is to
take part in two meets away from home,

Montssuma Valley rr,it.


Last Sunday, through the kindness
of NJ. II. Wedell, we had the pleasure
of visiting some Of the fruit ranches of
the Moatezuma valley, notably those
Of NJ. G. Humphreys and Geo. Perceval
at Appleton. 1T would be a hard mai
ter to decide who has the best, as all
are good. The trees are loaded to tie
ground and in . few instances small
limbs have broken off from the weight
and occasional hard winds, but, hest of
all, the fruit is all of an excellent quail
ity, yet it seems that this might be i'm
proved If a few were picked off earlier
in the season. Mr.. Humphreys has
trees that are literally one mass of ap-
pies, in many eases the limbs being en-
tireIy covered so that nothing is visible
but the fruit.
Mr.. Perceval has a plum tree that is
II curiosity. For distance of about
three feet OH one of the limbs you can
see nothing but plums and they form II
circle as large around as mans arm
and all are good size.
These ranches are only an illustra-
tion and there are many others equally
as good, but all go to prove that fruit
raising in the Montezuma valley Is not
myth and is now paying industry.
Nearly all the ranches have young Or
chards growing that will soon yield
neat incomes.

Every trip that one makes through

that there is something doing there all

of muscle are in evidence ut every turn
