In foot work to complete- them. How

success. ,
The Cornhuskers are In prime con
union, and with no major injuries
should put up a fine brand of foot
ball against Rutgers. Howaith, Dana
and Schoeppel are nursing slight
bruises, but all should be in good
Shape by Tuesday.
Following practice the party dined
at the Reynolds club on the commons
of Stagg field, and thereafter broke
ranks to visit friends for the next
two hours. The Chicago-Ohio State
game furnished entertainment during
the rest of the afternoon. Both teams
displayed good style.
Doctor Luehring and Captain lay
are guiding the team in its progress
enroute and judging by the morale of
the team, they have been very suc
cessful. Other menbers of the Ne

ALL-FRESHMAN RALLY

Hallowe'en -colors by streamers, while
pumpkins and cornstalks helped
carry out the idea of the evening
The guests were met at the door by
members of the reception committee.
who passed out cards, on which the
visitor wrote his name. The games
and program which occupied the first
hour cf the evening were played for
the purpose of acquainting members
of the crowd with one another. Each
guest was given fifteen minutes to
find out and write down on a slip
of paper as many names and home
towns of those present as possible.
"I've met more people in the last
fifteen minutes," said one Freshman,
"than I've met all year on the cam
pus." The person having the most
complete list was given a Hallowe'en
prize.
Groups Furnish Stunts.
The first-year students were then
divided into - four groups, and each
. crowd gave a' stunt. The winning
stunt was an improvised play by
William Shakespeare. As a reward,
the winning group was allowed to
have the first dance entire1' to itself.
A five-piece orchestra was so popular
that almost the entire crowd re
mained until the very last.
Apples and pop corn balls were
served to the guests during the eve
ning. A large sign with the words
"Class of 1924" was given a con
spicuous place in the decorations.
The net proceeds of the party will
be given to the Freshman treasury' to
hlp pay for the expenses of the
Olympics contest, which were entirely
borne by the first-year class.

opportunity to fit live stock for show
purposes. More ihan forty students
are taking part in the contest. In
addition to the twelve classes which
will be exhibited, a special class of
Shetland ponies will be shown. For
this class girls have been selected.
Entertainment, consisting of an
orchestra and special features, will
lend variety to the program. Extra
seats will be provided at the ends of

Requirements of the Law College
were changed and other plans for the
second semester were mapped out at
a meeting of the Iaw College faculty
October 27.
It was decided that (1) a student
who. from any cause, lias missed 20
per cent ot class exercises in any
courses during a semester shall re
ceive no credit in the course, and a
student who has missed 20 per cent
of all class room exercises in his
enrolled classes shall receive no
credit for work during the semester
except upon petition approved by the
faculty.
(2) A student w:ho has a total in
all courses of five or more unexcused
absences must present a thesis upon
topic assigned by the dean. Such
thesis is to contain not less than two
hundred words for each absence and
s to be 'submitted at the next exami
nation period. No credit is to be
given until such thesis has been
accepted.
(3) No person shall be admitted
as a regular student and as a candi
date for a degree, who has less than
one year of college in addition to full
entrance credit. "One year" shall be
interpreted as thirty semester hours.
with the exception that a student may
be admitted upon condition if he
shall have twenty-eight semester
hours of work in Nebraska University
or its equivalent.
Entrance Conditions.
(4) Entrance conditions shall not
be made up during the law school
ear, and shall be made up within
one year from entrance to the col-
ege. except that the faculty may,
pon petition, authorize a further
period.
(5) A student who shall fail to
ass in more than eight hours of his
work in this college at any examina
tion period or who in the opinion of
the faculty is unsatisfactory in one-
third of his work shall not be ad
mitted to classes for a period of six
months except upon petition and con
sent of the faculty.
(6) Credit shall be given for the
following subjects:
Contracts 8
Torts 6
Tleading 1 6
Property 1 6
In contracts, if two hours per week
are given in the first semester, and
four the second, three hours credit
shall be allowed for the first semester
and five for the second. Presence at
genera lecture will be required.
(7) The faculty of Arts and
Science College are requested to in
crease the amount of law hours to be
credited towards an A. B. degree from
twenty-four to thirty-two.
(8) Mid -semester examinations
shall be given to first-year class. The
examination will consist of one ex
amination by each instructor in each
subject.
(9) The schedule for the second
semester as outlined be approved.
(10) "Twenty per cent rule." To
obtain his degree a. student must
have attained an average grade of
70 or having an average grade of 70
before 1919-1920 he must have not
less than 80 per cent of his work
since then 70 or above.
How Large is an Atom?
. . . . . u nn.-lrr the most cower -
ATOMS are so infinitesimal tnat w -....
t be grouped. The atom
Vadium were discovered physicists
with smaller things than atoms-with particles they call electrons.
Atoms are built up of electrons, just as the solar system is built up
of s and Planets. Magnify the hydrogen atom, says Sir Oliver
LoS to the size of a cathedral, and an electron, m companson, M
be no bigger than a bird-shot.
Not much substantial progress can be made in chemical and elec
trical industries unless the action of electrons V
reason the chemists and physicists in the Research Laboraton of tihe
General Electric Company are as much concerned with the very con
stitution of matter as they are with the development of new mven
tions. They use the X-Ray tube as if it were a machine-gun; for by
its means electrons are shot at targets in new ways so as to reveal more
about the structure of matter.
As the result of such experiments, the X-Ray tube has been greatly
improved and the vacuum tube, now so indispensable in radio com
munication, has been developed into a kind of trigger device for guid
ing electrons by radio waves.
Years may thus be spent in what seems to be merely a purely
"theoretical" investigation. Yet nothing is so practical as a good
theory. The whole structure of modern mechanical engineering is
reared on Newton's laws of gravitation and motion theories stated
in the form of immutable propositions.
In the past the theories that resulted from purely scientific re
search usually came from the university laboratories, whereupon the
industries applied them. The Research Laboratories of the General
Electric Company conceive it as part of their task to explore the un
known in the same spirit, even though there may be no immediate
commercial goal in view. Sooner or later the world profits by such
research in pure science. Wireless communication, for example, was
accomplished largely as the result of Herz's brilliant series of purely
scientific experiments demonstrating the existence of wireless waves.
