HUSKERS TO HAVE
BASE BALL TEAM
RECESSION of Summer, Base Ball
Rule Makes Diamond Sport
Possible at Nebraska.
MEET TIGERS ON FLOOR
BY JAMES E. LAWRENCE.

Lincoln, Feb. Especial. Tho
University of Nebraska will take part
in collegiate base ball next spring for
the first time since the summer base
ball rule OF the Missouri Valley con-
ference was adopted, over eight years
ago. RECESSION of the rule last fall
by the conference brings the Husk-
ers back into the fold.
Already steps are under way al the
Husker institution for putting big
base ball squad in the field just as
soon as the weather permits. Ath-
letic Manager Reed has not drawn up
his base ball schedule, but will try to
arrange games with most of the Mis-
souri, Valley conference members, in
GLIDING one trip which will call for
eight or ten games away from home.
The Huskers will have to start all
over again, inasmuch as there has not
been the sembance OF base ball
squad in training for years. Reed is
uncertain as to how much material
there is in school, but he feels reason
ably sure the Huskers will not have
much trouble in putting out good
nine.
Missouri and Kansas and some OF
the other schools OF the conference
have been busy in spite OF the summer
base ball rule and have the veterans
on hand to seriously handicap Ne
braska. Reed will get the base ball
men together within the next lew
days and talk over the situation be-
fore issuing call for candidates for
the squad.
Stewart to Take Charge.
Dr.IE, ]. Stewart, the all-year coach.
will also take charge of the base ball
men. Stewart is an old base ball star
himself, having played with the West
ern Reserve college nine when that
aggregation ranked with the best III

his college days, but upon leaving
school took charge OF a 'einI-prcics-

Only Two Big Nine Games
On HaWkeye Grid Schedule

Iowa City, Ia, Feb. 3.-(Special. y
With three big games to be played
within six weeks and only two confer
ence teams on the schedule, the com
plete Hawkeye foot ball schedule for
the season of 1917 has been completed
and announced by Manager N. A. Kel-
logg, Nebraska, which has been
played for number of years as the
final game of the season, appears sec
ond on the list next season and the
Ames game, which will probably be
for the state championship, will be put
on at Iowa City for the final clash on
November "a, the occasion of the an
nual home coming of Iowa grads. &.
The schedule as announced is the
following;
October cornell at Iowa City.
October l3--Nebraska at Lincoln.
October 2o--Grnnell at Iowa City.
October 27-Wlsconsin at Madison.
November 3--No game.
November l0-South Dakota at Iowa city.
November 17-Northwestern at Evanston.
November 24-Ames at Iowa City.
Dropping of Minnesota from the
schedule has caused dearth of con-
ference games, the fewest that Iowa
has played in many seasons. North
western and Wisconsin are the only
two Big Nine elevens that Iowa will
meet, and both Of these games will be
played on foreign soil.

NEGRO NoRMoL WINS CORN CON-
TEST PRIZE.
RECEIVES LOVING CUP IN COM
PETITION WITH MANY COL
ORED INSTITUTIONS.

Indicative of the work, both in
theory and practice, that is being done
at the Agricultural and Industrial
State Normal for Negroes, the insti-
tuition has just been awarded the first
prize and hansome loving cup in
a corn contest that was held at Tus-
kegee Institute, the famous industrial
school which was founded by Booker
T. Washington.
This announcement has Just been
made public by the president Of the
school, Prof. William ]. Hale, who
received notice Of the success Of the
local institution in the contest
through a communication from the d.
rector Of the department Of agricul.
ture at Tuskegee.
The annual farmers conference and
agricultural exhibition at the noted
Alabama institution is one of the
most largely attended and patronized
movements Of its kind in this coun-
try. Many OF the best schools take
rart in the exhibit each year and
demonstration agents and agricultural
tNUbIlucuI SIdIlOuS dlC
from many sections. Some of the
nations most progressive Negro
farmers also enter these contests.
The work was begun by the late
Booker T. Washington, who had made
the movement nationwide in its
scope.
Early in the history Of the Tennes
see Normal, which is the youngest
school of its kind, North or South,
the students developed special apti-
Itude and fonuness for the work which
had been mapped out for them along
agricultural and industrial lines. The
school has won signal praise each
venr for its success in all OF its de-
partments, and long since has been re-
garded as one OF the very best insti-
buttons OF the kind operated by any
state. Much Of the credit for this
record Of achievement Is given to
President Hale.
The summer session at the local
school each year is the most largely
attended of any similar institution In
the country, and for several years its
various other activities have stamped
the normal as being one OF the most
useful and constructive educational
institutions for the race,-Banner.
