Lincoln, Neb., May 12.-Nebraska will not
send a team to compete in the Minnesota relay
congress to be held in Minneapolis May 20.
This was decided at a meeting of the athletic
board, at which time the whole affair was
talked over. The motion to send a team was
finally lost by vote. 1t was decided to
enter team in the Chicago conference meet,
June g. and also to send a team to compete in
the western championship A. A. U. meet, Kan
sas City, June 10. The decision against send
ing a squad to Minneapolis was due to the
heavy expense, and a meet had previously been
arranged with Colorado university for Lincoln
on that date. The western school refused to
agree to the change and the local board did
not enjoy the prospect Of the serious compli-
cations which might arise over the breaking of
the contract already entered into.

every afternoon at Nebraska, and the way the
men are turning out and working augurs well
