T!i "VUcon31n fic are a team cf no mean ability. According to Fred V. Uens of tlie I'ubllc Service building. Milwaukee, Wis, v lio handles the affairs of the team, they have lost only one game out of 18 played this season and that was to the Big Vivo in Chicago, by a close scoro and before our boys had veaily got to going. One game out of eighteen la considerable of a record for any t?am, fo tbidently the Owls will 1 ave to eittjud themselves the limit if they are to win. Tho Boosters gabe no excus for the cancelling of their game, outside of one that they did not w ish to be beaten at this time, which Is aniewhat gratifying to local followers. Is there are not many teams who can win from such an organization as the Boosters without 3 much as having to stop out on the floor. The reserved seats for the Monday n'ght game are going fast and from the advance sale of tickets it looks very much as though a capacity house will see this exhibition.
