Miss Augusta Cottlow. who will give
piano recital under the auspices of
the Monday Music Club next Tues
day evening is a warm friend of Mrs.
Edward Mcdowell whose late hus-
band was the greatest composer
America has yet produced. Not only
was he the greatest but he is the only
one whose inspiration seemed to come
from America, and whose works car
ry with them fresh new message to
the old worlds across the sea.

strongly favor allowing the college
men to play professional ball during
the summer so LONG as they are not
paid for their services. In the minds
of the Nebraska students there is no
doubt that the big Seven" schools
will be given sane rule which will
give their baseball men broader limits
in which to develop their skill during
the summer vacation.
Thc fac. that the conference repre-
sentatives at Des Moines did not bring
up the training table matter yesterday
does not mean that the decision made
at Kansas City abolishing the custom
is final. 1t only means that the ques
ton will be brought up again for final
action at the next meeting of the con-
ference in March or April. In the first

training table matter. that having been

ton and one of the most popular phys

had. has been placed on committee

example of the standing of this Yale
graduate among the colleges OF the
middle west For several years he
has been associated with the Nebraska
university and has made good.
At the recent conference held in
Des Moines there was some squabble
about college men playing summer
baseball and it was some time before
a decision could be reached. Finally
a committee was appointed, of which
DR.. Clapp is member to draw up a
set of rules. The situation among the
colleges of the Big Seven" is clearly
explained by the Des Moines Register
and Leader in the following article, in
which the name of DR.. Clapp is men

ed man named Jack, was totally de-
stroped by fire, together wish all its
contents Saturday, entailing loss OF

er, nine tons of hay and ssome other
