Three Stars on Nebraska Five Quit the Game Loss of Players Puts the Valley Championship Out of Question. LINCOLN, Neb., Feb. 1.—(Special.)—More elements of hard luck are conspiring to put the Nebraska basket ball five out of the Missourl Valley champlonship racs. Immediately after the Kansas games in the early part of January, D. C. Mitchell, star forward of the local team was de- lared ineligible by the Board of Control, id now, with “the*scarlet “and ‘Greami yers standing ‘at the head of the north ern section of the league, it is announced that two other tossers will quit the game. One of these men, E. Ingersol, has fin- ished his college course and will take his degres within the next two weeks; the other athlete, Wilbur Wood, hae not reg- istered in the university for the second semester and the chances are that he will not return to the team. Both of these men were regular players on the 'varsity and took part In the two | games against Drake last week. Wood is by far the best guard In the university, and his work was a feature of all the games played by the last month. With him and Ingersol off the team, the Corn- huskers will be so badly crippled for the rest of the season that they will stand no chance of getting the Missourl Valley champlonship. Since the victories were taken from, Drake and Ames the local piayers had high hopes of winning the valley honors, but with the team weakened by the loss of two regulars, every bright ray has been clouded over and now the rooters see only defeat ahead of the team in the games with Drake and Ames the latter part of next week. For a time it was thought that Petra- shek, the rangy center of the flve, would have to quit school. His parents have been seeking to get him to joln the pa- ternal fireside for the rest of the year and the youth had about declded to go, when he learned of the withdrawal of and then he consented to stay for the rest of the semester. A second game has been scheduled with | the Kansas Aggies of Manhattan, /to be played in Lincoln on Monday, February 14. The Kansas aggregation took the Corn- huskers Into camp by a wide margin on the occasion-of the recent visit of the Nebraskans to the Jayhawker's state. Stnce that time the Cornhuskers have been playing fast ball and, until the loss of Wood and Ingersol, had expected defeat the Aggies here, but the chances ot victory in the coming game are re- garded as very slim just at present, to Johnson Answers Lan, BUFFALO, N.

Raoul de Rouen. the mammoth Frenchman, and Jess Westergaard of Des Moines have been matched at last for a finlsh wrestle, catch-as-catch-can style, at the Auditorium in Omaha. The date s set for February 10. Manager Gillan of the Auditorium has just raceived a telegram from de Rouen's manager, ylelding to the ultimatum of Glllan and Westergaard for a. catch-as- catch-can match or nothing. The French- man and his manager held out as long as they could for either a Graeco-Roman or mixed match. The two men met In Omaha & year ago in a handicap and it became apparent then that Westergaard was the complete master of de Rouen so far as knowledge of wrest- ling was concerned. The only thing in de Rouen's favor s his,immense weight and that will scarcely be sufficient to give him a victory over Westergaard if the match 1s fought out on Its merits.

TWO DISTRICTS TO BE MADE Council Committee of the Whole to Recommend that City Hall be Insured to the Amount of ' $350,000. Plans for the opening of Twenty-second street, from .Howard to Dodge, will not g0 forward for some time. Otto Bau- man, one of the appraisers appointed to investigate and report, informed the coun- cil committee of the whole Monday after- noon that it would be a waste of time and money to go ahead under the ordi- nance recently passed by the council. For the appraisers, he advised that two dis- tricts be created, one from Howard to Farnam and the other from Farnam to Dodge. They had found, sald Mr. Bau- man, that it would require $1500 to $20,000 more than the $50,000 allowed by law as the maximum of cost in any one district, because of the great growth in the value of Farnam street property.

New Track on Dodge. An ordinance permitting the Union Pa- cifio to bulld a track along the south side of Dodge street, from Ninth to Tenth street, was given a favorable recommend- ation, It was stated that this new track 1s needed to enable Hayden Brothers to go ahead with plans they have in mind for a mammoth warehouse to be erected where thelr present warehouse now stands, on the southeast corner of Tenth and Dodge streets, The ordinance to put the poundmaster on a yearly salary of §1,600 was endorsed for passage.
