Do You Know What W. S. G. A.
Is Doing For University Women?
Many are the queries raised as to
the meaning of the very prominent
letters " W. S. O. A." These terms
lire more familiar to the women than
to the men, for this organization, the
Womans Self-Oovernment Association,
is composed of some thousand
"co-eds" whose duty It Is to uphold
tho rights and welfare of the univer
sity women. Tho officers are:
True Jack President
Fae Breese Vice-President
Mary Brownell Secretary
Katherlno Wills Treasurer
Board Members: Helen Fischer,
Helen Glltner, Martha Hellner, Ruth
Lindsay, Marjory Barstow, Florence
Wilcox, Lois Melton, Mary Sheldon
and Elizabeth Scrlbner.
The business of the W. S. G. A., an
outgrowth of the girls' club, Is car
ried on by the W. S. G. A. council,
which Is composed of members from
each sorority and rooming house, as
well as the presidents of all the girls'
organizations in the university. The
organization is sort of a senate and
executive combined. It makes and
enforces the laws tby which the uni
versity society is governed. The W.
S. G. A. devises the house rules for all
university girls. A discipline council
is composed of tho officers and three
members from tho W. S. G. A. council.
The W. S. G. A. la giving :-. grand
piano to the Woman's hall, 14th and
R streets. Many of the pictures which
hang upon the walls came from this
: ssociation and a tax lias been levied
upon the members for this.
The W. S. G. A. has legislated for
their landladies, requiring them to
prolilo a parlor, r roperly lighted and
heated on Friday, Saturday and Sun
day or two of tins" evenings, until
10:30. In nil houses in which women
reside thei o is a proctor who is chair
man of tin' house committee which
regulates all house entertaining and
social engagements. The member of
the house who Is the W. S. G. A. mem
ber Is this proctor.
The responsibility for the many
ether rules and regulations which are
enforced at the uniersity can be
placed with the W. S. G. A. These
legislative measures and the regula
tions concerning the women's ath
letics give the "co-eds" of Nebraska a
chance to show their qualifications as
vo.e:s and lawmakers.
GRACE COPPOCK
HERE NEXT WEEK
General Y. W. C. A. Secretary in
China to Continue Social Enter
prise Launched in 1907.
The nineteen hundred dollars which
the university Y. W. C. A. plans to
raise next week to support Grace Cop-
pock, an alumna of this university,
who is the general secretary of the
Y. V. C. A. in China, will help con
tinue a social enterprise which was
aunched In 1907 when the Y. W. C. A.
was organized in China.
In this work the value of physical
health receives full recognition. An
article In "The Widening Circle," a
magazine devoted to the Y. W; C. A.
in China, reads as follows:
"Peking and Tientsin members have
half-day schools for poor children
where teaching Is done by volunteers,
and cleanliness, aided by soap and
new garments. Is one of the chief
studies. Canton Association women
are trying to rectify conditions as well
as to teach Christianity in the women's
prisons.
"Shanghai hopes to make an annual
affair of Us Social Service Institute.

and lectures on the opium problem,

SHANTUNG PROBLEM TO
AIRED AT FORUM
Henry Chung, '17, Author of
Books on Oriental and Korean
Questions, Will Speak.
Henry Chung, '17, will speak at the
Forum this afternoon at five o'clock
In the Y. M. C. A. room on the sub
ject "The Shantung Problem." His
address will occupy a half-hour and
the remainder of the time will be open
for questions and discussion Mr.
Chung, is considered an authority on
this subject. He was appointed a
representative of Korea to the peace
conference and In addition has pub
lished two looks, one on Korea trea
ties and one on the Oriental policies of
the United States, both of which re
ceive the highest praise from critics
in this country.
In the university Mr. Chung was
considered an exceptionally brilliant
student. He reeclved his masters' de
gree from this university In 1917 and
was appointed to a fellowship in the
department of economics at North
western University. Mr. Chung recent
ly addressed the Commonwealth Club
of San Francisco, the most Influential
club of the city which has been ad
Iressed by auch men as Secretary
Daniels, Ex-President Taft. Sir Ed
ward Grey, and Theodore Roosevelt,
Junior.
The 1920 Cornhusker is to be larger
than ever before. On account of the
university returning to its pre-war
basis and the adding of new organiza
tions and activities this past year, the
Cornhusker has been enlarged, until
it now is a volume of over five hun
dred pages.
This year's Cornhusker will contain
pictures of more than ninety-five per
cent of the eutire student body. Every
organization on the campus has re
sponded to the Cornhusker call and
their pictures will appear in the 1920
Annual.
The new features of the fraternity
and sorority sections are pictures of
the fraternity houses and the frater
nity crest3 run In colors.
"Photographs of each fraternity and
sorority house were taken by a com
mercial photpgrapher with a graflex
camera and the cuts are unusually
clear and distinct. The best views
poslble were obtained of each house.
These cuts were vignetted by the en
graver, and although this process
doubles the cost of the cuts, still the
Improvement brought about by this
process was more than worth the In
creased cost. The printer and en
graver have consented to work out
the fraternity crests in a novel color
scheme, which will make this section
very attractive.
One decided Improvement over form
er Cornhuskers Is the excellent qual

ELLSWORTH WAS PERSONAL
FRIEND OF ROOSEVELT
William W. Ellsworth who will give
his famous lecture on Theodore Roo
sevelt, American" for the Lincoln Lec
ture League, on Thursday, February
26, at the First Christian church, was
connected with the Century Company,
HiUlishers, for rtearly ,orty years
,iiul as such was a personal friend of
Mr. Roosevelt, closely associated with
him during the publication of his ear
lier books, "Ranch Life and the
Hunting Trail," "The Strenuous Life,"
etc. ' This lecture, however, Is a good
deal more than a friend's recollection,
It is the complete story of Mr. Roose
velt's life, from his boyhood in New
York to the end at Sycamore Hill
illustrated by the stereoptican with
tho most interesting collection of pic
tures ever made in connection with
the subject. All of the publishers of
Mr. Roosevelt's books helped Mr. Ells
worth in his search for material. The
reproductions of Frederick Reming
ton's fine ilustrations for "Ranch
Life" is one of the most interesting
leatures of the lecture.

BASKETBALL SEASON IS
SUCCESS FINANCIALLY
Expenditures Total $3,000 and
Department Has Taken in
$2,900 to Date.
According to announcement made
by the athletic department yesterday,
basketball will be a financial success
at Nebraska for the first time in the
history of the school. This is quite
remarkable, considering the fact that
the 1920 schedule is the most expen
sive that has ever been attempted y
the Cornhusker school.
Coach Schissler estimates the ex
penses of the season at $3000.00. Of
this amount, $2500.00 was for guaran
tees and $500.00 for equipment. Up lo
date something over $2900 00 has been
taken in by the department. This In
cludes guarantees and gate receipts.
With two more games to be played at
home during the week of the state
high school tournament the total can
easily be swelled over the $3000.00
mark. In previous years the basket
ball budget has never exceeded $S50.00,
and never before has Nebraska faced
the class of teams she has met this
ear. The 1920 basketball season Is
i great success, financially and every
-her way.

SIOUX CITY, la., Feb. 25. -(Special
to Nebraskan). Schissler's victorious
Iluskers piled up fifty points to Morn
ingside's dozen yesterday afternoon,
and literally smothered the Maroons
in an avalanche of pretty field goals
at the end of a series of fast passes.
Time after time, the Ponies would
take the ball at the tip-off and run
their plays through to the goal with
out a hitch. Although Mornlngside
led 3 o Q for five minutes, they were
helples over the Nebraska machine
when it began Its strategic teamwork.
