Will we beat Oregon?
When the University dairy judging team won first place from
seventeen other representatives, at Springfield, Massachusetts, last
week, another worth-while honor was added to Nebraska's list. From
fifty-four entrants, a Nebraska man won first place and another won
fourth place. It is a proof of the excellent quality of instruction which
the University offers, not only in the school of agriculture, but In every
department of the institution.
The Oregon agricultural college daily has not been coming to the
office, with the rest of theexchanges, lately. Are they printing dope
they don't want us to know about, or are they afraid of us?
The rally last night was the best football "pep meeting" ever held
at the University. Nebraska spirit swept the crowd in waves and the
enthusiasm of everyone present was as contagious as a bargain hunt
on Monday.
We are determined to beat Oregon. Much depends on it. It is
not a blinding, brilliant display that we want from the team, it's real
playing, and we have to have it. This is Nebraska's chance to win
or lose in more than football. It is a crucial moment, and all of this
week we must be with the team in spirit. This was realized last even
ing, and when the team pledged "For Nebraska, we will," everyone
present felt that it was a true prophecy.
Nebraska students have "pep." Nebraska students have the right
kind of enthusiasm. Nebraska students "will."
The girls' convocation for medical supervision at the University
yesterday morning was the largest convocation of women ever held
here. The numbers indicated an interest and desire for the medical
aid which was astonishing.
Medical aid at Nebraska is needed, and needed badly, and the
women are willing to do everything they can to promote the plan. An
infirmary with the best of medical aid is one of the greatest needs of
a school as large as Nebraska. The success of such a plan is evident
and the students are anxious that it be adopted with the greatest
expedience.

BRIEF BITS OF NEWS
FORUM
Oct 17, 1916.
To the Editor of The Nebraskan:
I understand that one of the speak
ers at the girls' mass meeting at con
vocation today, made the statement
that sex hygiene was not taught at
all in the University, except perhaps
to a slight extent in the work of the
department of sociology.
For three years, a two hour lecture
and two hours laboratory course for
one semester in sex hygience has been
offered by the department of physiol
ogy. Separate sections are carried for
men and women. It is repeated each
semester and has ben given for three
summer sessions. During this time
the course has been taken by 400 wom
en and half as many men. Further
more, three years ago, when Dr.
Knisht came to Lincoln as medical in
spector in the city schools, he was em
ployed by the University to give a
serips of lectures on sex hygiene to
all of the University cadets. When he
went away this work was turned over
to the department of physiology and is
now given by that department and is
required of all cadets by the military
departments.
I hope I may be pardoned for call
ing attention to these facts. Such a
statement is only fair to the Univer
sity as this institution is one of the
first and one of the few to give instruc
tion to its students along these im
portant lines.

To the Editor of The Daily Nebraskan:
Since there are about 1,000 students
in the University who are eligible to
vote at the coming election it may be
timely to call attention to the regis
tration law that is in existence in Lin
coln. Before anyone will be permitted
to vote, his name must appear on the
registration book at the polling place
on election day in the district in which
he lives. The voter can register any
time, at the city hall, during the year !
except ten days before election day. '
.fl.t A1 t . ... . I
in ib jcar ine poii uooks win close on
October 28, after which it will be im
possible to register and consequently
one cannot vote on election day.
Those who have not already regis
tered, or those who have moved into
another precinct since they have reg
istered must register again. All stu
dents can register provided they are 21
years old or over, American citizens
and have lived six months in the state.
It is very urgent that every student
who is eligible to vote attend to this
matter before it is too late and be
prepared to exercise his American
privilege on election day. W. F. U.
Prof. W. F. Darin gave his weekly
interpretative symphony analysis to
a large crowd at Art hall yesterday
morning at 11:30. Next week Prof.
Dann will play the third movement of
the symphony.
Superintendent A. H. Waterhouse of
Fremont, was on the campus yesterday.
An automobile ride at 2:15 o'clock
Saturday afternoon has been planned
by the Y. W. C. A. for all freshman
girls. Those who expect to go are re
quested to call at the Y. W. C. A.
rooms this week and obtain tickets for
the ride.
The girls are to meet at the Y. W.
C. A. rooms. Alter the ride they will
be taken to a Lincoln home, which
has not yet been decided upon, for
refreshment!.

he was paying for what he got, and
would be more likely to take advan
turn of the onnortunlty afforded. It
would do away with the idea of chari
ty and bring the Idea of independ
ence," he pointed out.
Prof. Grummann Spoke
Professor Grummann supplemented
the two speeches by some observa
tions he has made in his own classes.
"It is true," he said, "that slight de
eds which may and do lead to big re
sults are so numerous that we do not
notice them the obvious Is so evident
that we do not see it. I can say con
servatively that 50 per cent of the stu
dents who have failed in my classes
have had throat trouble. They were
not physically able to do the mental
work required."
The sore throat was the subject of
a good deal oi condemnation Dy ur.
Stevens and Professor Barbour as well
as Professor Grummann. Dr. Stevens
declared that fully one-sixth of all the
girls taking gymnastic work in the
Lincoln high school and public schools
have had valvular trouble of the
heart, of which the principle cause
was consular trouble. Because they
neglected to have the matter remedied
when it seemed but a trifle.
Nip Beginning of Trouble
Although the free medical attention
would cover every ailment a student
might contract, the big purpose of the
bureau and dispensary would be to nip
the beginnings of fatal or serious
trouble in the beginning. Both speak
ers pointed out that once contracted.
valvular disease of the heart could
never be remedied and might be the
cause of death at any time, while a
brief conference with a medical in
spector would have resulted in the
remedy of the sore throat which
caused it.
In commenting upon the speeches
of Dr. Stevens and Professor Barbour,
Professor Grummann said that he
hoped the ball had been started rolling
and that student sentiment would start
after something tangible in the direc
tion of free medical attention in the
University.
