The Ames Cyclones Invade the Cornhusker camp tomorrow to battle irith the Huskers on the coliseum floor. The Husker Quintet have worked out at the coliseum every duy this week and are confident of their ability to take the measure of the Ames Farmers Saturday night. The Cyclones have improved since the list contest with the Scarlet and Cream fire, and are planning to revenge their early season defeat. The Husker crew has shown a dc cided improvement in the practices this week. Coalh Frank's proteges accuracy at basket shooting has been a feature of the workouts this week. Inability to hold on to the ball, a weakness of the Huskers thus far this season, has been almost entirely eli minated The Husker five has been playing an exceptionally good brand of basketball this week, and indica tions point to the Nebraska victory One or two changes in the Husker lineup for the Ames game will prob ably be made. Captain Austin Smilh is expected to resume bis old positioa at forward. Russell will piay the other forward. Warren will be at the pivot position, and Kohl and Hunger will play the guard positions. Ames Lineup. For Ames Green and Paxton will probably fill the forward berths, Innes Tin jump at the center position, while Currie and Woodard "will b stationed at th guard positions. These five cagere play together well and always give their opponents a stiff battle. In a contest with the Cyclones at Ames a month ago, the Huskers came out with the long end of the score, 21 to 14. The Aggies pu up a ha:d fight against the Cornhuskers, who won by a rally in the last six minutes of play. The game with the Ames Cyclones will start at 7:45 sharp. The contest will be played on the state fair coli seum floor. LACK OF MONEY HINDERS UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Tork of the university extension office has been hindered on account of the lack of money, so that none of the citizenship schools, two day loca: courses teachaiang the fundamental principles of citizenship, athletic courses, offered to athletic directors or lecture courses have been given. Correspondence courses much like those offered by commerci.il institu tions have received special atten tion. More than seven hundred students over the state are now registered for these, showing a preference to the English, education, history, and matc ematics instruction in the order tamed. A low registration fee is charged, from six to nine dollars, and the courses give two to three hours University credit. There is an aver se of twenty-five lessons to the course, depending on the number of credits and the papers are returned marked very carefully. A number of courses offering high school credit re now put out, but these do not receive such a warm reception. Professor Wolfe went to Palmyra, Nebr., yesterday as the speaker at the annual banquet oC the local com mercial club. Filings of candidates fcr of flees to be selected at the elec tions to be held FeFbruary 7 must b handed into the Stu dent Activities office by nent Friday, February 3. The following offices will be filled by the election: Fresh man, sophomores snd Junior members of the publication board; Junior managing editor, business manager and eo It or-J ri ch lef of the Cornhusker; presi dents of all four classes; Ivy day orator.

Building of a University of Ne braska stadium without use of the legislative appropriations is contained in a plan outlined in me last quarter ly edition of the University Jouranl. The plan calls for the applications of the subscriptions toward the memor ial gymnasium upon a athletic struc ture, to bo built in sections. Only a small part of the $113,000 now subscribed toward the gym nasium has been collected and the greater part of the uncollected sum cannot be gotten at this time, in the opinion of the alumni committees working on the matter. The associa tion therefore puts itself on record as favoring the return of the appropria tion to the general fund of the stale. The University Journal contains the following comment: There are many things to he said in favor of erecting a stadium at this time. None of the memorial features of the gymnasium will be lost by the change in plan; a stadium is a vital necessity in order that large enough attendance may be assured to watrant the paying of the guarantees asked by those who would make worthy op. ponentA for Nebraska, but whom are at the present tire unable to at tract because of our inability to meet offers made by other universities who are better equipped; a stadium can be erected jn sections as the mor.ev- is raised, a feature which is not possible with a gymnasium: a start has been made toward a memorial and inas much as it will be impossible to raise and collect more than $24.1,000 the amount necessary to keep the appro priation of $250,000 from lapsing we feel that every subscriber to the me rnorial gymnasium will be perfectly willing to convert their subscription to a stadium plan and the uniivcisity thereby not lose all that has been done for the suitable memorial at Ne braska. Chicago Prof. Has New Form Of Questionnaire It seems to be a new style for dif ferent people to set up standards whereby they attempt to judge an other person's education and natural mental ability. Ford and Edison have submitted their list of question whereby they attempt to judge, but the latest list comes from a prcfessoi in the University of Chicago. He told his pupils that he snould consider them educated in the best sense cf the word when they would be able to answer yes to each of fourteen ques tions he should put to them. Here s his list of questions: Has your education given sympathy with all good causes ana maae jou espouse them? Has it made you public spirited? Has it made you a brother to tn weak? Have you learned how to make friends and keep them? PROPOSES Do you know what it is to be a friend yourself? Can you look an honest man or a pure woman straight in the eye? Do you see anything io love in a little child? Win a lonely dog follow yon on the street? Can yoo be high-minded and happy in the meaner drudgeries of life?

Dr. Edward Bartow gave a very In teresting lecture Wednesday evening before the meeting of the Nebraska section of the American chemical so ciety. His subject was "The Water Supplies of the American Expedition ary Forces." Dr. Bartow was for many years professor of sanitary chemistry at the University of Illi nois and chief of the Illinois water survey, having recently been made head of the department of chemiestry at the University of Iowa. Dr. Bar tow was also a major in the sanitary corps and was in charge of the water supplied with water from the time they landed until the time when the? reached the front. Imagine some of the difficulties encountered when a were thrown upon a country s sources! Dr. Bartow showed lan tern slides which pictured the large reservoirs and filtering plants that were established to obtain' the ex cess waster supply for the sc-ldier. The largest of these were located at Brest and Bordeaux, France. The most common chemicals used ,n the purification of the water were chlo rine and several bleaching powders Canals were built for transporting the water from one place to another in some cases. TRACK TRYOUTS TO BE HELD SATURDAY First Runs cf the Year to be Made Tomorrow Mdeics to Send Several Men. The first tryouts for the University of Nebraska track squad for this spring will be held Saturday after noon, according to an announcement made Thursday. Nebraska's chances for a track team this year seem very slim in the face of the meet to be held with Ames. Several of the best track men the Cornhusker school po sesses are delinquent in their studies and much new material must be sent to compete with Ames. Ames has one of the strongest track teams in the country. The Iowa school is credited with having the greatest set of men in the country in the 440, S80 and two mile events. Now with four "N" men out cf the contest because cf Ineligibility, Ne braska faces what is likely to prove an insurmountable hurdle. The squad of runners which Ames will pit against the Huskers makes it loon as though Nebraska can hope for lit tle in these events. Loss of Deering, Wright, Gish, Dale and Lees in the sprint, hurdling and field events almost eliminates Ne braska's chances of overcoming the Ames lead in the runs. In the Saturday tryouts, men for the shot put will report at 2:45. Broad jump candidates will report at the same time, pole vaulters at 3 o'clock and high jumpers at 3:30. On account of the men coming down from Omaha the running events have been delayed until 4 o'clock. The men will arrive at 3:15 and the events will come off at 4- Some of the men coming down from the med ical college are Allen, last year miler, who will run the mile and the half mile; Fischer, who will run the two mile; Dennisons, who will run the half and mile, and Lear who will run the hurdles. The time schedule for the tryouts follows: Mile run 4 o'clock. 50-yard dash 4:10 p. m. 4:40 yard dash 4:15 p. m. 50 yard low hurdles 4:20 p. m. 50-yard high hurdles 4:30 p. m. Two mile 4:45 p. m. 880 yard 4:55 p. m. STUDENT VOLUNTEERS TO HEAR DR. BARKER "Does Evolution Contradict the Teachings of the Bible?" will be the subject of an address to be given by Dr. F. D. Barker at the Student Vol unteer meeting, Sunday, February 5, 1922 in faculty hall of the Temple building. The doctor's presentation of the subject has received a good deal of commendation, and eoould serve to clear up some of the erroneous Ideas that the old book does not agree with present day Bcience, BARTOW SPEAKS TO Harry Adams President and Frank Eieser Vice-president of Bi zad Organization.

An initiation and smoker will be taken in at that time. SCORE Jj SUCCESS "What Every Woman Knows" is One of Most Entertaining of Plays. "What Every Woman Knows" as ttie University Players presented it last night at the Temple theater proved one of the most entertaining plays they have ever attempted. Barrie's whimisical humor was given a splendid opportunity to please the large audience and every one of his subtle touches received a smile and more often a hearty laugh. The play is well staged and while elaborate settings are not attempted the cnes used are entirely adequate. The cast of players which are in terpreting this most delightful of Barrie's comedies has been carefully chosen and are well directed. Mrs. Howell, the director is also playing a part and is thoroughly enjoyable as the vivacious French ccuntess who is first to discover the real Mag gie Shand. Leading Roles. The two leading roles of John Shand and Maggie Shand were well patronized by Hart Jenks and Frances Burt. Their work was ear nest and sincere throughout. Neil Brown, Harold Livingston and John Dawson as the male members of the Wiley family are excellent and their characterizations caused j many 6miles. There are no outstanding charac ters deserving of special mention but the whole cast is ercellent and their steady work account lor the play's success. "What Every Woman Know6 is repealed tonight and Saturday night and should draw full houses.
