FINALNOTICE SENTSATURDAY
Editor and Business Manager Are in
the Affair For an Early Book
They Ask For Co-operation
of Students
The University was startled the lat
ter part -of last week by the advent
into the Junior and Senior ranks of
what at first appeared to be a form of
black hand card ordering those who
received them to have their pictures
taken immediately if they wished to
have them appear in the Cornhusker,
and Informing them that January 18th,
TODAY, la positively the last date that
they will be accepted. Investigation
proved this work not to be that of a
black hand society but of senior man
aging editor, K. M. Snyder, and of jun
ior managing editor, J. Schwab, under
the direction of Business Manager Po
teet, whose determined effort to have
the Cornhusker out at an earlier date
than heretofore apparently cannot be
thwarted.
The advertising section is making
rapid progress. Lahr and Krahulik,
and Dwight Foster as a new addition,
are working on the local advertising,
while McMillan is working on .the
foreign. Several other men have signi
fied their Intentions to work, but Po
teet says he would like to see them
in the office.
The editorial department is booming,
material for publication is being re
ceived In quantities from all quarters.
Some of the things coming to notice
of late are that Marie Robertson has
taken two or three assignments from
the office; Lucile Leyda Is preparing
an exceptionally fine line of philo
sophic poetry, and McDonald is hand
ing out a line that will be welcomed
by the readers of the forthcoming
Cornhusker; while Winifred Seeger,
so says Editor Samuelson, has handed
in more suitable material than any
other person, up to date.

Chicago, the "biggest scoundrels in the
country are college-bred men." This
doesn't prove that college-bred meu
are usually scoundrels, but goes to
show that they become big in any kind
of an undertaking they engage in.

FEATURE FILM TO BE
SHOWNATJUDITORIUM
Scene is That of a Country Youth in
Preparation For and in Attend
ance at the University
Dr. Condra very enthusiastically told
about one of the best films he has to
show before the Associated Agricul
tural Society this week. It is a picture
of the preparation for and the gradua
tion from the University of a young
fellow from the country. The young
man goes 'for the mall one morning
and receives a catalog from the Uni
versity; he is more or less enthusi
astic in regard to taking work in the
institution but his father takes a dif
ferent view of the matter; It is only
after the young man and his father
have had an opportunity to speak to
a graduate of the University that the
father is Induced to allow his son to
attend.
The picture goes on to show the
prospective student prepare for the
trip to Lincoln; it shows him on the
campus!; it takes him through the
process of registration, pictures him
engaged at the task of preparing his
school work and finally ends with his
graduation.
Besides this one feature film many
of general and particular Interest will
be shown during the week at 7 o'clock
each evening at the city auditorium.
The Young Idea
The examination papers of school
children are unfailing sources for
8 musing material. "The Correspond
ent," an English publication, offers a
Hit of recent blunders:
"Ambiguity means telling the truth
wlicn you don't mean to."
'The principal vegetable and min
eral products In America are tinned
meats and borking stridors."
"The feminine of he-goat Is he
v.cnt; of hero, sbero."
"A corps is a dead gentleman; a
corpse, a dead lady."
"To keep milk from turning sour
you must leave it In the cow."
Tlie percentage of men at the Uni
versity of Chicago who are earning
thir way through, is one in every
two. Creek Exchange.

A SUCCESSFUL PLAY
AUDIENCE WAS WELL PLEASED
WITH THE PRODUCTION
ALL SEATS WERE OCCUPIED
All in Attendance Report a Successful
Production Music by Scott's
Orchestra Was Also
Appreciated
The German play, which was given
last Friday night in the Temple The
atre, was reported a great success. The
audience was large and enthusiastic
and applauded roundly at the most
dramatic situations.
The stage scenery was well worked
out but the best part was the actors
and actresses who seemed everyone
made for his part. Herr Bernardi, the
father, impersonated by Henry Schu
maker, as well as Lenore Muehleis, as
Mrs. Bernardi, created quite a sensa
tion, especially when they showed such
apparent anxiety to have their daugh
ter married safely vto Richard von
Ottendorf. The part of Edith Bernardi
was ably played by Miss Magdelene
Craft, and the applause was loud when
her fiancee in the person of Herbert
Grummann, appeared with his Kaiser's
moustache and commanding air. Hans
Arndt, Impersonated by Frederick
Stricter, was recognized by the audi
ence as the perfect type of an earnest,
hard working man who is broadmind
ed and has deep sympathy for his fel
lowmen. John Ibsen as the butler,
gave a "very aristocratic air to the
Bernrrdi household in his full dress
suit and rigid conduct. Dr. Heideck
and his wife, Albert Wedeking and
Frances Tuthill, made a very charm
ing couple and afforded th8 audience
much amusement.
The workmen of the factory, and the
consumptive daughter of the oldest
one, represnted by Franz Radke, John
Ibsen. Walter Raeke, William Urbach
and Marguerite Kauffman, gave a
reality to the factory scene that was
quite effective.
Excellent music furnished by Scott's
orchestra was' enjoyed between acts
and everyone seemed to feel that both
the cast and the coach, Professor
Grummann, should feel fully repaid
for all their work.

cyclone five into a veritable hornet's
nest last Friday and Saturday when
he strayed into the Cornhusker camp.
Captain Sweeney will be remembered
by those who saw the games as the
distinguished looking forward who
tried to guard Ed Hngg. He played
under the triple handicap of a bad
knee on one leg, a bad ankle on the
other leg, and a mighty good opponent
on two legs.
The Friday game was called at.

utes promised to be a tight old strug
gle, but as the scrap waxed hot the
home boys showed their class, forging
to the front and bettering their lead
as. the game went on. At the end of
the first period the score was 12 to 17,
with Ames claiming the poor dozen.
The second half found the Iowa
Fanners fagged and somewhat dis
couraged. They fought gamely to the
end, but were able to count but one
basket and one free throw during the
entire period, the goal coming a few
seconds before the final whistle. The
final score was 32 to 15.
