XN'oL1f1f received his first training on the Creston, Iowa, high school team, where he proved a steady player at right guard. PFE11vF1aR s ability as a football man is evidenced by the fact that he held right end on the Tabor College, Iowa, team for three successive years. After winning a decisive victory over the Freshman Law team, despite the fact that in the latter's personnel were tivo Varsity team men, the Seniors concluded that they had good grounds on which to base the expectation of winning the University interclass cham- pionship. It was at this juncture that the embroglio, to which we have already adverted, occurred. Neither the challenge appearing in the Ncbrasfmn nor individual efforts were of avail in arranging a game with the Academics. In View of the status of affairs, the Senior Laws formally claimed the interclass championship. The following is the line-up: Lightner, left endg Sward, left tacltleg Snaveley, left guard: Shelburn, center: Baker, right guardg Vifolff, right tackleg Pfeiffer Cmanagerj, right end: lValtman, full- baclcg Owen, right halfg Konop, left halfg and Hazen Ceaptainl, quarter-back.

Senior ,'Basket:93 all ga' The initial game of the Senior basket-ball team was with the NfVesleyan University team. It was an exciting game, characterized by good guarding and block plays on both sides. The Laws were worsted, the final score being eight to twelve. Two practice games followed, with the Senior Academics. The two teams appeared to be evenly matched. A game with the junior Academics resulted in a tie score, but fortune favored the Laws in the toss of a coin. Two of the three games scheduled with the Freshmen Laws were played, the latter proving to be cheerful losers. The score in the first game was twenty to six and in the second nineteen to eight. The closing contest of the season was with the Douglas Castle team of the Royal Highlanders. The latter had a number of strong individual players. Team work combined with speedy playing won a decisive victory for the Senior Laws-score, twenty-seven to eight. This made the record for the team as follows: Games played, iiveg lost one and won four. Players: Milelq, Towne, Corlett Qcaptainj, 'Waltman, Mathew, Lightner, Vance Cmanagerj, and Pfeiffer.
