Clapp, Statlon A, Lin- coln, before miduight ot April 2. Several #ohools sent thelr entries in after the time set last year and were kept out of the meet on that account Will Draft New Rul A meeting of all the principals and super- Intendents of the Nebraska schools has been called for Saturday, May 7, in Me- morial hall at the State university The meeting was called for this date in order o mecure attendance from all the athletic directors of the state for a discussion of proposed rules to govern high school ath- letes, During the last wintcr there has considerable agitation among the men noeted with Ligh school athletics and the #eneral oplnlon has been that there sho Be a set of rules drafted that would adopted by all, the schools in the state. AL present there I8 no fixed standard for the athletes, and some sch to comprte who do not #scholastie work The men who had the meeting of May 7 called desire to get a uniform set of rules and to make the principals enforce it. It is sald the high school pupils who should be required under the proposed rules (o maintain a certain standard of scholarship in the high schools would be much more fitted to come to the State university, where they have to get their studies in order 1o be eligible for athletics, than the youngsters who have been wending their way hither for many falls, To Play Highland Park. The Cornhusker base ball team will have One more game this spring, even though a declfon is made to have the organization disbanded within the next week. Highland Park college of Des Moines, Ia., has signi- fied its willingness to play the Cornhusk- #rs whether or not they are eligible for beke ball under the Missouri valley con- ference rulings, and the game scheduled for next Tuesday will take place on that day, weather permitting. In past years the Highlanders have turned out strong teams. They are allowed to play fresh- tan athletes and this privilege permits them to gather In some very fast ball artists. The fallure of the conference representa- tives at Kansas City on Tuesday to settle the base ball question as regards summer playing among college men was a keen dlsappointment to the Cornhuskers. It has Idlled thelr chances of playing any of the conference schools this year and means thiit the Nebraska nine will be out of the champlonship race for the season of 1910. 1t fs not the fallure to get legislation in favor of summer ball that has stirred up the ire of the Cornhuskers, though; it is the attitude that some of the other schools have taken in regard to the amateur stand- ng of thelr own mien that has roused the Nobraskans. The attempt of two or three of the schopls to convince the Nebraska board that the ball players at those schools practically expenses been keéep up their afe not professionals 1s ridiculed here, and | the Cornhuskers are on a still hunt for information about various Missouri valley college players who were on hired teams last summer. Considerable data was se- cured this week which touched upon sev- etdl of the players at Kansas. There is additional material forthcoming about the Jyhawkers. Missouri, Iowa, Ames, Wash- igton and Drake all have dirty base ball and the Cornhuskers intend that schools shall elther 'fess up on the uflitter voluntarily or have the facts shoved before their eycs so they will have no chance to deny the charges.
