day evening at Woman's Hall. The
committee has decided not to send in

suffice.

served following an interesting pro
gram consisting of addresses and
musical numbers.

Juniors and Seniors Trounce
Sophomores and Freshmen
in Slugging Matches.
The Juniors and Seniors won the
opening games ill the girls' inter-class
baseball tmrnanitnt Wcdncsdav after
noon on the i thletic field by defeating
the Sophomore and Freshman teams
respectively. In the Senior-Freshman
game a score of 44 to 34 was run
up. most of the scoring being due to
errors in the fielding. In the Junior
Sophomore g: me the final score stood
19 to 17 when the teams quit playing
because of darkness in the last half
of the seventh inning with the Juniors
at bat and two outs.
The Junior-Sophomore game was a
hot one. The first four innings the
Juniors evidently had the game
cinched. A home run by Rob Hender
son turned the Sophomore luck at
the beginning of the fifth and was
followed by :i home run by Harriet
Ford. Three outs in succession was
ihe Junior record for the sixth while

GET SET FOR THE BIG
DRIVE1
I met a student on the cam
pus yesterday.
He said, "I am planning to
give at least ten dollars toward
the new gymnasium and stadium.
How much are you going to
give?"
I replied that I did not know.
"I really ought to spend the
money for a few necessities,"
he went on, "but I feel that it
is not only a duty, but it is a
privilege to be allowed to help
in the construction of a building
Nebraska has needed for so
long. I can do without a few
extra clothes, but we cannot do
without a representative gym
nasium." This assertion made me feel
insignificant and almost selfish.
I resolved to subscribe ten dol
lars myself. I began to think
seriously about the matter.
That student, I thought, stands
for whole - hearted Cornhusker
spirit. He believes in Ne
braska's uture, and also that Ne
braska's future, and also that
Nebraska's bravery on the
battlefield deserves a perma
nent monument.
FIVE O'CLOCK CLASSES
NOT TO BE HELD TODAY
All five o' -lock classes today includ
ing drill classes will not be held ac
cording to the official notice made

put pose of suggesting plans for in
augurating the Memorial financial
drive in the University. It is prob
aMe that the faeu'iy members will
agree on an average amount for each
i member to contribute.

Seventeen Business Administra

Dean J. K. Le Rossignol has ju.-t

degree ihat ihe University has de
cided to give to graduates of this
colleee.
The Committee on ' The Relation oi
Collegia'e Schools of Business to the
Secondray School System"' made a
very elaborate report printed in book
form. The ihe-me of the whole thing
was the teaching of economics in
high and preparatory schools. It is
expected that preparatory school

port. During th convention important
subjects in connection with Colleges
