DAILY'S HEW POLICI
NEWS SYSTEM ADOPTED BY THE
PUBLICATION BOARD
A YEAR'S SUBSCRIPTION FREE
The Campaign for Subscriber! Will
Continue Throughout Thia
Week Investigate -This
Offering
The business management of the
Nebraskan has worked out a new sys
tem for subscriptions to the paper,
which is being put into practice for
the first time this semester. This new
policy of the business management
was outlined the last two days of last
semester, and is again contained in to
day's tssue. It is very simple and en
ables everyonH to secure the paper on
much more favorable terms than ever
before.
According to its terms, any Senior
-subscribing to tbe paper this semester
will receive it during this semester
and also during the first semester of
next year. This enables a Senior to
secure the paper for two complete se
mesters for tte price of one semester.
Any Junior subscribing for this se
mester and for' the first semester of
next year will receive the paper for
the last semester of his senior year
iree.
Every -Sophomore subscribing for
the next three semesters will receive
the paper during his entire senior year
free of charge, or In other words, he
will receive five semesters for the
price of three In a like manner all
FreBhraen subscribing for the paper
for the next five semesters will re
ceive it during their .enlor year free.
Thus they wili secure seven semesters
worth of literature for the price of
five.
This system is based on the sup
position that every upperclassman has
taken the paper during the time he
has been in the University, and so
gives every member of the Senior and
Junior classes credit for their past
subscriptions whether they took the
paper or not Of course, as all upper
classmen take the Daily Nebraskan.
no credit has been given except where
deserved.
Tbe money does not need to be paid
until It is due from semester to semes
ter and so every student should avail
himself of this opportunity of boosting
for his University and his University
paper. The campaign for subscrip
tions will continue throughout this
week and it is hoped that the very
excellent record of the first semester
will be 'more than reached.
All Senior Take Notice
Leave your home address with the
Iariy Nebraskan, and If you pay your
subscription fcr this semester before
March 1st, the paper will be mailed to
you free of charge the first semester
of next year. Fifth and sixth year
students are classified as Juniors and
Seniors, respectively.
ANNUAL SENIOR PROM
SATURDAY NIGHT

held February 6 at the Lincoln Hotel.
This prom is always the big one of
the year and this one bids fair to ex
ceed all the former ones. This is also
the prom which will be different. One
of the unique features of the evening
will be singing during luncheon by i
picked quarter from the Kosmet cast.
One of the best orchestras in Lincoln
will furnish the music.
All Juniors
Will receive the Nebraskan free of
charge the last semester of next year
if their subscription is paid before
March 1st for this semester, and be
fore October 15th for the first semes
ter of next year.
LARGE REGISTRATION
FROM TIRED STUDENTS
Probably Larger Registration Than
During First Semester Classes
Began Promptly Thia Morning
The usual eleventh hour rusbi char
acterized the closing evening of the
registration days for the second se
mester. A large number, however, fin
ishing their examinations early in the
week, completed registering Wednes
day and Thursday, and thus not only
avoided the rush, but also managed a
few days' visit with home folks.
But on the whole, Registrar Greer
and his corps of assistants have re
duced an almost endless amount of
tangled red tape to a few minutes'
formalities, and the large number of
students that semi-annually demand
attention receive it promptly and ef
ficiently. Several new courses appeared in the
second semester bulletin and it is re
ported that many have signed for
these. Also there was the rush for
those courses considered "pipes."
Luckily there is a diversity of opinion
on what Is and what Is not "fruit"
The exact total registration figure
has not yet teen given out, but it is
expected that it will exceed that of
the past semester. Many who are oc
cupied with work delay entering until
the second semester.
Classes be?;an promptly this morn
ing, but It Is to be expected that the
first week will hardly witness the
work In full swing.

LOTS OF WORK TO DO IN CORN
HUSKER BASKETBALL CAMP
MYERS OUT FOR THE SEASON
Will Not Come Back to School Wes
leyan Contest Friday Ministers
Have Great Team Lincoln
High Defeats St.Joseph
The Cornhusker basketball team has
a great big job cut out for them dur
ing the ensuing weeks. The first thing
the team 'and its lengthy mentor must
do is to fill the place left vacant by
the retirement of "Seven" Myers, erst
while particular star in the Corn
husker constellation. The gap left in
the lineup by Mr. S. Myers' retirement-is
one of discouraging propor
tions, and is causing Coach Stiehm
some agitation. Myers has decided
definitely that he will not return to
school this semester His absence is
sure to affect the team materially.
The other thing which must be done
before the job is complete is to pre
pare the team for a good old-fashioned
Methodist conference, said which con
ference Is to lake place in University
Place next Friday night with the Wes
leyan ministers. There is one thing
lingering in the memory of . Corn
husker rooters which is ever rising up
Inside them and crying for vengeance.
The memory of the liberal donations
toward building the new Wesleyan
gymnasium, which Cornhusker rooters
presented the embryo parsons a year
ago, is fast becoming extremely poig
nant as the hour for vengeance draws

Occupied by Girls Resting from
Strenuous Examinations
As a recreation from the strenuous
hours of examinations and registra

been served in a quiet corner of the
Y. W. C. A. rooms. A large number
of girls sought rest there each day
and were immediately served with
tea and wafers by pleasant hostesses.
Thia has been a custom to serve tea
on the afternoons of registration week
for a number of years and is very
much enjoyed by all the girls who
find time to spend a few moments
there. It is also a very good place
for new girls to get acquainted for
they are always cordially received.

The members of the Union Literary
Society went sleigh riding last Friday
night. The crowd was composed of
about ten couples and that they had
a good time is the least that can be
said of it. The party left the Temple
at 8:50 and for the next two hours
the Jolly Unions rode through the
streets of Lincoln. At 11:00 o'clock
they arrived at the home of Miss
Hazel Allen at 1500 C street, where

Saturday afternoon at six o'clock
the formal pledging closed. From five
to six the successful, and also con
descending, girls marched in single
file up to the home of their would-be
sisters. The closing days of the past
week were not as full of the wildness
of close competition as those of last
fall. Apparently every girl had al
ready selected her future home and
merely went through the formality of
a "rushing season" to better equip
herself for the time when she, too,
would have to assume the task of se
lecting the green material from the
woods. The following list gives the
