HUSKERS LOSE
TQ INDIANA
The committee on ways and means
for the better correlation of students'
work in the college of arts and scienc
oa hna nresented a Plan which if
adopted, would make the students' sel
ectlon of courses of study simpler and
more efficient.
The plan Includes a definite state
ment of the requirements for different
majors and minors. It is urged that
a more complete account of courses
be given in the catalog, and that, the
advisory system be further developed.
The student should confer with his
adviser, not only during the time of
registration, but will have the oppor
tunity to consult with him at least
once during each semester. The ad
visers should meet to discuss and uni
fy their work.
The report of the committee is as
follows :
'"The committee appointed to con
sider what, if any, additional regula
tions should be adopted for the guid
ance of students in making such a sel
ection of courses as will best secure
for them the larger and more perma
nent advantages of an Arts College
education, beg to report the following
recommendations :
"1. That more definite statement
shall be made In the departmental an
nouncements in the catalogue, as to the
prerequisites, if any, for each course.
"2. That each candidate for a de
gree shall, before the end of his soph
omore year, be required to select
some subject as a major. A major
shall consist of courses aggregating

stamping ground and the Indiana
Hooslers grabbed the first of a two
game series from the Huskers by the
score Of 24-20 on tne Armory mi
last night. The Indiana team was the
first to break into the scoring and had
slight edge over the Nebraakans
throughout the game. A record
breaking crowd swarmed into the
mlnature gymnasium and standing
room was at a premium.
Donovan scored first for the
Hooslers. Russell broke through
Stiehm's defense and tossed the ball
through the hoop for the first Corn
husker score. During the first half
the game was nip and tuck, the
Hoosiers usually maintaining a slight
lead. The Indiana team was leadinsr
10-6, when goals by Bekins and New
man knotted the count. Nebraska
took the lead when Bekins accounted
for a free throw, but the Hoosiers
rallied, spurted ahead, and from then
on were never headed. The first half
ended 13-11 in favor of the Hoosler
five.
Both teams started the
period with the same lineups,
gathered the first counter
second half, tying the score. Phil
lips, star Hoosier forward, counted for
a pair of baskets. The Huskers re
taliated and with ten minutes to play
the score stood 20-18 in the Hoosiers'
favor. Two foul goals and a basket
added four more points to the Indiana
