"Nebraska has now pushed it self into a position where it appears to be the leading contender for the championship honors of the Missouri Valley conference, which Kansas surreptitiously wrenched away from this school last November," said the last number of the Daily Nebraskan. How conscious-stricken the K. U. rooters will feel when they learn of their "surreptitious" honors that were won from the Cornhuskers. We admonish the team this year to give the Nebraskans due warning as to the result of the game so that the Lincoln rooters cannot accuse the team of doing the unexpected, the undesired or the surreptitious." Surreptitious, surreptitious, it is a fine large word, but we don't want it appended to our players. That would handicap the most stalwart bunch of athletes that ever sat at a training table.
Professor Dyeche may go to Mt McKinley to verify the records that Dr. Cook, the explorer, is said to have left there, and Robert Kennedy Duncan has been appointed on a committee to verify the pretensions of one of the most widely known mediums in the world. The people of the country evidently have faith in the ability and the integrity of the University educators.
It is news to us, however, that Robert Kennedy Duncan numbers among his many accomplishments a knowledge of the occult, and of the frauds of the business.
PICTURE EXHIBIT CLOSED.
Will Next Be Shown at the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
Today was the last day to see the art exhibit, which has been shown in the museum for the past three weeks. The pictures will be packed Monday and will then be shipped to Lincoln, to be exhibited at the University of Nebraska.
In speaking of the exhibit which has just closed, Prof. Griffith said today: "I consider the exhibit a great success in an artistic way. While the attendance has not been large, it has perhaps been all that we should wish for. This exhibit was the last that can be seen in Lawrence now for two years, as the next will be shown in the new administrative building in rooms especially fitted for that purpose."
