JOURNALISM MUST

ITS SUCCESS RESTS ON THIS. SAID
LINCOLN STEFFENS
New York Newspaper Man Talked on
His Profession to Members of
Fogg's Class
Lincoln Steffens of New York, ad
dressed the journalism students In the
music room of the Temple last even
ing on the subject, "The Secret Ser
vice of Journalism."
Prof. M. M- Fogg was the presiding
officer and with a few remarks as to
Mr. Stiffens place In the journalistic
world Introduced the speaker.
"Journalism is a business, it is s
profession. It Is an art." said Mr. Stif
fens. "Literature is the art of expres
sion, sad Journalism is the democra
tized form of literature. All arts are
being gradually democratised. They
are being molded by- the demands of
the great body or mass of the people."
Must Appea' to Millions
Journalism, to be successful, must
appeal to the understanding of tboe
millions, according to Mr. Steffens. It
must have a feeling and a sympathy
for wrongs of the people. "Reporting
today must go back of the apparent
cause or too tire to the fundamental
fact or cause that provoked the
action. It mast present it with human
enderstanding and economic under
standing. The reporter to render this
so-called "secret service.' must 'go to

and Cook, halves, and IXibson and
Otoupalik at fullback.
Rhodes at Guard
Rhodes, at guard, is rather inex
perienced at that position, but he has
shown especial ability to play tackle,
and the shift to guard will be but a
slight change. Although there will be
a loss of weight, through his substitu
tion for Dale, there will be a gain in
speed.
Cook and Caley have been showing
up in fine style in practice this week
and are expected to help a great deal
in the scoring. Otoupalik and Dobson
have beeu tearing the scrub line to
shreds in the practices of the week
and ought to cause the Iowa forwards
a lot of worry.
Team in Good Shape
The rest of the team. Riddell.
Corey. Shaw, Kositzky. Wilder and
Cameron, are all in fine shape and.
judging from Wednesday night's hard
battle with the scrubs, they will do
terrible things to Iowa's back field.
A few men were taken along on the
trip as a reward for the fine work
they hae been doing on the scrubs.;
Donnegan. Fuchs and Henry are the
men who are to be rewarded in this
way.
The men who were taken on the
trip are as follows: Corey. Riddell.
Shaw.
Kositzky. Rhodes. Wilder.

NEW LEGISLATORS
WANT HONOR OF
INTRODUCING BILL
The legislative reference bureau has
received many inquiries by newly
elected legislators about what House
Roll No. 1 will contain and who will
introduce it. Everyoue wants to in
troduce the bill that will be known
as House Roll No. 1, and it promises
to be a lively fight for the honor since
only one man can have it.
There are many tricks to be learned
about getting this bill introduced and
the successful one will probably be
some experienced politician.

NEBRASKA HYMN
Dr. C. B. Cornell gave a talk on
"Community Service and Community
Singing." at the Omicron Xu meet
ing Wednesday evening. November
22, al S o'clock, at try? home of Delia
Kolb, 1342 South Eleventh street.
In closing, he said that he wished
to give a practical demonstration of
community singing, and asked all to
join in the singing of some familiar
folk songs, which was done.
Omicron Xu was given the honor
of being the first ones, outside of the
immediate family of Dr. Cornell, to
sing his new Hymn to Nebraska.

men of the first and second string,
with the exception of Tackle Becker,
got practice against the Cornhusker
plays, which were run off with fluctu
ating success.
Brief Signal Practice
With the men already well saturat
ed. Jones close the drill with a brief
siimal practice, sendine his souad to
the gymnasium early. Becker par
ticipated in the signal work and Trip-
lett was at left tackle. Fullback Scott
was out in a suit for the day. but con
tented himself w ith walking briskly
about the field to limber up his bum
leg. Van Pelt acted in his place, but
it is practically certain that Scott will
be in shape to start against Xebraska.
A firm field on which the fast Iowa
backs may perform is desired for Sat-
urday by the Hawkeyes, but unless the
ground freezes it is improbable that
they will be faTored with solid footing.

"We're going to give the rooters

Coach Stewart's parting shot as the
football team was pulled from the
Armory to the Rock Island station to
board the train for Iowa City yester
day afternoon.
"The team is going to fight Satur

yard line they're going to have the

LIT. STUDENTS TO
VISUALIZE SCENES
Dr. Stuff Will Send His Classes Out
in Groups to Keep their
Eyes Open
Beginning students of English lit
erature under Dr. Frederick A. Stuff
are to be sent out upon Lincoln in
groups later this term to keep their
eyes open, size up situations and
people and later visualize what they
have seen in writing. They w ill wotk
in groups and as a general thing will
not work on Cres, accidents or other
out-of-the-ordinary scenes, but on
everyday situations, which ordinarily
do not arouse more than passing in
terest. In making this announcement. Dr.
Stuff said that he is positive that the
students will find this classwork very
Interesting, that they will be aroused
to a deeper appreciation of tbe things
that go on about tbem and of the
value of literary understanding in
meeting the problems of everyday
life.
The outside work in groups is not
coming today or tomorrow, but It's
coming and will be of much value.
That is the promise of Dr. Stuff.

A blackboard will be prepared with
the lines marked off upon it to repre
sent the gridiron in tbe city of the
enemy. As the play is received over
the telegraph, a marker on the board
will follow the position of the ball
to indicate as each line buck, end
run or forward pass is made, the posi
tion of the ball and the gain or loss
following the play.
Rapid Ticket Sale
Tickets have been going rapidly for
the party and reporters and woul'l-be
journalists who have been selling
them have been returning to the Xe
braskan office time after time for
more tickets.
Although the Xebraskan intended
merely to cover expenses, and not to
make of the affair a charity party in
any sense of the word, some have
even ventured to buy a ticket when
they had no intention of going, mere
ly to help contribute to the expenses
of the undertaking.
The thought that the Xebraskan
would not make any money on the
project, but that all profit, if there is
any. would be turned into the fund
for the relief of the prisoners in
Europe, has met with approval.
The game is scheduled to start at
Iowa City at 2:30. Since Iowa and
Xebraska are in the same time zone,
the battle should start in Memorial
