HOLCOMB
NEBRASKA CONSIDERED
SYRACUSE MURDERER
Professor .Beokwith of Syracuse
University, who murdered the dean
of the college of business administra
tion of that university and then killed
himself, was at one time seriously
considered for a place on the Univer
sity of Nebraska faculty, according to
Dean J. E. LeUossignol of the College
of Business Administration.
Dean LeRossignol said that Pro
fessor Beckwith was highly recom
mended and that, it was only after
careful examination of his qualifica
tions that his application was re
jected. Dean LeUissignol pointed out
that the moral of this coincidence of
such potentialities is that recommend
ations aro made too carelessly and
that more caution should be exercised
in them.
NEBRASKA ACADEMY OF
SCIENCE HOLDS MEETING
Thirty-first Annual Gathering of Or
ganization Held in Bessey
Hall April 1 and 2.
The thirty-first annual meeting of
the Nebraska Academy of Science was
held in Bessey Hall April 1 and 2.
Trof. J. C. Jensen, of the Nebraska
Weslcyan University, was elected
president to take the place of Prof.
Elda IL Walker, of the botany de
partment. Grading students is an exact
science, according to Trofessor Jen
sen, who addressed the Academy.
"There is a wide variance among the
marks given to students by different
instructors, even in identical courses.
Since honors and recommendations
for positions are based largely on
grades recorded it is desirable that
there be uniformity of marking in all
departments of a school. Studies ex
tended over a period of nearly six
years at Nebraska Wesleyan Univer
sity show some progress toward uni
formity of grades tan be obtained by
a publicity method in which teachers
are apprised of their shortcomings as
compared with the faculty median
grade. The habi tof marking high or
low Js partly a matter of personality
and therefore it seems necessary to
adopt a scaling system on the Mis
souri of Nevada plan in order to reach
the desired goal fully."
Pr. Miles J. Breuer, Lincoln physi
cian and scientist, in the course of
discussion of the "Principles of Dream
Analysis" Saturday morning brought
out the method of dream interpreta
tion, and gave examples of dreams
illustrating the principles. Dr. Breuer
said the study of dreams has assumed
a definite place in medical rractice,
affording a key to the diagnosis and
treatment of certain tyres of nervous
diseases.
Causes for the decline and in
crease in population in the various
sections of this state were discussed
by Miss Esther S. Anderson, instruc
tor in geography in the University of
Nebraska, before the earth science
seel ion of the Academy.
Two more lectures of special inter
est will be printed in a later issue.

ORGANIZATIONS DELAY
WORK ON GQRNHUSKER
Lack of Data and Keys to Pictures
Hampers Staff in Getting Year
Book to Press.
Data and keys that have not been
turned in by different organizations
and fraternities are holding up the
organization section of the Corn
husker. People who are responsible
for these write-ups should get busy at
once and get their work in. Several
sections of the book are now at press
and the other departments should be
completed at the earliest possible
time. No doubt some of these write
nps are not in ecause of some mis
understanding on the part of the peo
ple who are responsible for this work.
Officers in the different organizations
are asked, if the name oi their so
ciety appears in the following list, to
turn in the required data, thus hclp
jir the staff. This data is essential
and the officers should take it upon
themselves to see that it is in by the
end of this week.
The following organizations are
larking in either data or keys to their

array of material now on hand the
Husker eleven should set ft dizzy pate
for the rest of tho Missouri Valley
le-r.ivts next f;:ll.

Veterans on Hand.
Coach Dawson has a large number
of veterans to work with in develop

gin a week or two preceding the oper
ing of school.
