The Sport Coat
and the important part it will play in the wardrobe of every discriminately dressed young man.
For the coming Summer season the new pinch-back sport coat promises to be of such popular favor that no young man's wardrobe will be complete without one. They are made from light weight knitted fabrics and Piping Rock flannels and for the Summer dance are especially good loking with white corduroy, white serge or flannel trousers.
For the morning motor trip you'll enjoy their cool comfort—On the tennis court the sport coat will be much in evidence—They are so constructed that they give freedom of arms making an ideal coat for golfers. (We have golf knickers to match them). Then for loafing 'round the house they are much more practical than a house coat. In fact we think they are about the most practical all around garments that were ever designed for man's comfort.
Here are the prices at which we are selling the various sport outfits;
Sport Coat of Flannel or Knitted $10
Fabric ...
Sport Coat of Flannel (Dark Blue or Green) with Trousers to Match ... $15
Sport Coat of Knitted Fabric
with Golf Knickers to match. $15
Sport Suit with Two Pair of Troussers (One Pair of same material; the other of White Corduroy) ... $20

The Daily Nebraskan has made the following appeal to the students of that University to support the student council:
1. It will mean that the students have an organization to represent them.
2. By unifying student life it will create a better Nebraska spirit.
3. By being representative of the various departments of the University it will create a greater and more wholesome department spirit.
4. It will mean the adoption of the Siegel's technique which will produce widgets, dialogs, activity
6. It will mean the creation of a University State, having functions similar to the state at large, thus producing a laboratory in self-governance.
6. It will mean the adoption of the State Union, which will predominate in the election.
8. It will bring order and unity where now we have disorder and

TENNIS SCHEDULE OUT
Two Matches at Home, One at Des Moines on K. U. List This Spring
This Spring
A complete tennis schedule has been arranged according to an announcement from Manager W. O. Hamilton this morning. Two dual matches on the McCook courts are the home matches for the Varsity players who meet at Des Moines is the only trip which the Varsity players will get to take for a racket match.
Oklahoma is the first dual match on the program. The Sooner tennis sharks will play Teachner and his partner Johnson, and Scales and their partner Field curry. This partner will probably be the same one which worked with Dix in the Nebraska meet last week. The matches will be played as late in evening as possible, since it is much wind as possible. The exact hour had not been determined this morning.
Next week the Missourians will come for their dual meet on Friday and Saturday May 19 and 20. This will be the same time as the basketball games between the two schools on McCook Field and the week will be almost the same. The track team is except the track squad will be on a foreign field. The match with Missouri last year was split but Teacher hopes to take it this year.
The Missouri Valley meet will be held in Des Moines this year on May 26 and 27. Several fine courts are available for the Valley tennis playground, but the Drake school had no trouble in securing the Valley meet on their home grounds. Last year in the Valley meet Kansas did not land very well. Teacher lost his singles for the first time in the year but that was due to several bad guesses on the part of the judges together with adverse conditions in his court upon as soon as the Valley and the result is likely to prove this fact.

POTTERS LAKE WILL OPEN
WITH SUMMER SCHOOL
The regular season for swimming at Potter's Lake, will open at the same time that the summer session begins. A swimming instructor will teach you how to noodle, during the summer months, and will act as life saver when necessary.
During the summer session the lake will be open to the students of the summer school free of charge, but a fee of one dollar will be collected from all those who are not in school. There will be two seasons for swimming this summer, one lasting six weeks and the other lasting four weeks. A fee of one dollar will be charged at both sessions.
There will be dressing rooms large enough to accommodate the crowd, and they will be erected near the lake. Tents will probably be used for dressing rooms although other structures will be erected near the lake, but that it may not be possible to arrange for them this year.
The junior women at Miami, according to the custom of that University, entertained the women of the annual violet breakfast last week.

K.N.G.MEN NOT EXCITED
Mobilization of Border Militia Doesn't Affect the Local Company
"Members of Company M are not worrying their hair gray over the possibility of our being called out to go down to Mexico," said Capt Frank E. Jones, this morning. "Just because the militia of the border states have been ordered out for active service is no reason that we will be. In spite of all rumors to the effect that we may go at any minute, we can do it." Why? The call could come this afternoon but it would not cause any excitement with the members. We simply obey orders and that is all we ever think about."
"As to getting a call soon," laughed Captain Jones, "that is something that none of us can answer at present. It depends on a number of things and those things are best understood as a chance of getting a call this afternoon as a year from now. It's simply a matter of guesswork."
Mobilization could be effected in a very short time. From the moment that word was received from the War Department, there would not exceed three days at the most. Those men living in the western part of the state would have a reasonable length of time to report at the Armory here, providing that the college年头 had closed and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. If the entire regiment was ordered to the border, three special trains of fourteen cars each would be hectare-wide and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. If the entire regiment was ordered to the border, three special trains of fourteen cars each would be hectare-wide and the company would proceed to Fort Riley, and become a part of the regiment there. There is a possibility that a certain amount of open and extended order drill would be indulged in before the regiment left the Fort, the idea being to accustom the hex-landers with coordination in cooperation with other companies and full regimental order.
