University Men Have Habit 0
Being Late To Eight Of clocks
Complaints from professors teach
ing eight o'clock classes have been
heard regarding the many cases of
tardiness, especially of boys. Moans
of sovero punishment may be put
into el'fect if the condition does not
change.
The thing to do, for all young men
who are guilty of this evil, is to
change the method of being awak
ened. Getting a boy up in the morning
can hardly be. classed under the head
of "pastimes," especially if the boy
did much exercise tne day before.
And It is a little singular that the
next hardest thing to getting a young
college student out of bed Is getting
him into it. There is rarely a moth
er who is a success at rousing a
boy, yet she does seem to go at it
In the right way. She opens the
stair-door and insinuatingly observes
"Johnny." There Is of course no re
sponse. "Johnny." Still no response.
Then there Is a short, sharp, "John,"
followed a moment later by a long
and emphatic "John Henry." A grunt
from the upper regions signifies that
NEBRASKA LOSES
CYCLONE BATTLE
Husker Cage Tossers Completely
Outclassed by Ames Quintet
Saturday Night.
FINAL SCORE IS 26-7
IN FAVOR OF INVADERS
Five-man Defense Presented by
Visitors Was Too Much for

Completely outclassed in every de
partment of the game, the Nebraska
basketeers lost to the Ames quintet,
26 to 7, in a one-sided contest on the
roliseum iloor last night The Corn-
huskers were unable to penetrate the
five men defense of the Cyclones, who
held the Huskers to two baskets. Cur
rie, Cyclone guard, was the higli point
getter, making a total of ten points.
snnn nfter the opening whistle
Smith, Husker captain, registered
field goal. The Cyclones then fore
into the lead, and were never headed
The Scarlet and Cream cageis at n
Mmo threatened the Cyclone lead
The Ameg Farmers were leading a
the end of the first half, 14 to 6.
The guarding of the Cyclones fea
tured the second period, speedy Io
wans lio:ding the Huskers to cne free
throw. The Cyclones kept possession
of the ball the greater part of the
oQr.rvnH norind. and succeeded 111
chalking up 12 more points, bringing
thoif tntal to twenty-six. while the
Huskers' efforts netted them a tot
of seven tallies.
Numerous substitutions were muCe
in the Nebraska lineup In an attempt
to check the Ames offense. Tiptcu
went In for Smith, Munger for Rid
dlesberger, Smith for sarmen, and Car

made a number of substitutions.

mother is encouraged to add, "You'd
better be getting down here to break
fast, young man, or you'll miss that

startles the young man that he im

the operation has to be repeated sev

Now a father doesn't have this
trouble at all. He merely opens his

UNIVERSITY NIGHT
PLANS ANNOUNCED
Chairman Makes Known Com
plete Plans for Annual
Entertainment.
General Chairman J. Wilbur Wolf
announces the following plans lor
University night. The program is to
be held in the Lincoln high school
auditorium, February 18, and will
probably begin at 8:30 p. m. Chair
man Wolf has been successful in
closing the night of February 18 so
no additional parties will be sched
nled and the event will be an all-university
affair. Tickets are to be
placed on sale about February 9 m
tho Temple building as usual. This
will give students ample im. .j make
arrangements for the night.
University night has been a tradi
'.icn with our university for twelve
ytars. In the beginning it was under
the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. cab
inet and was intended to serve s.s a
general get-together for the students.
It has gradually developed uiuil to
day University night is probably ono
of the biggest events during tiie
school year. In order to make tiie
program a success it takes a great
deal of organization and several
months of conscious effort by a com
mittee of picked helpers. It is pre
dicted that the program this year
will be the best that has eve.1 been
staged. From the outset Cha.rman
Wolf has emphasized the fact that
the committee wanted only the best

PROFESSIONAL FOOT
BALL IS DISCUSSED
Chicago Tribune Denounces Prls
ent Inter-collegiate Foot
ball Ruling.
As the result of the suspension of
Notre Dame and Illinois football play
ers who participated in the now fain
ous Taylorvi.Ie-Carlinville game, miJ
die western newspapers have given
considerable space to the discussion
which has naturally arisen. Are the
suspended players to be compared to
the so-called Black Sox of baseball
or are they Justified, in accepting
money for playing professional base
ball or football after the college sea
sons end?
The Chicago Tribune editorially db
nounces the present ruling which for
bids a college athlete to accept monty
for his services. In support of this
position it said:
"If the girls of a girls' school had
slid down the water pipe at midnlgLt
and had been discovered trjing to
climb back up it in the morning ufter
a night of jazz they could not have
upset their world more than tne Uni
versity of Illinois and Notre Dame
boys have done by making a Roman
holiday for Taylorville and Carlin
vllle.
"The football coaches have broken
hearts. Two football teams aTe all
shot to pieces for next year. Facul
ties are looking askance at the young
men under their care. The collegiate
world in these parts is a physical
debacle and a moral collapse.
"Universities are blighted, young
men are blighted, athletic directors
are blighted, future seasons are
blighted, and a considerable portion
of this section of the country sits In
sackcloth and ashes because of what
these young men Absaloms have done
In their perversities.
"The corn fed moral sense of these
parts probably ought to be more
shocked by the conduct of the col
lege boys, who, by playing football
at Taylorville, seem to have broken
the heart of the world, but we can
not get them out of the picture as a
group of Penrod Schofields. The foot
ball coaches suggest Penrod's dancing
teacher and his agitation when Pen
rod itched.
"We do not favor the young gen
tlemen of the universities sneaking
into games under assumed names. We
do not favor their taking money
which they must swear they never

Tuesday will docidd betweea "ajll
university" and "greater Nebraska."
The stage Is all set for what is ex
pected to prove one of the most in
teresting elections ever held at the
Cornhusker school. Ilie important
part which the non-fraternity ele
ment is expected to take lends au
unusual interest in the balloting
which is expected to be very heavy.
The polls will open at 9 oclock
Tuesday morning and stay open until
5 o'clock, in, the afternoon. They
will be located la thd Carpenter
building north of U hall. Students
who have classes at the agricultural
college will vote at the polls there.
Two distinct tickets have been en
tered in the field. The greater-Nebraska
ticket and the all-uuheisity
ticket together with platforms upon
which the candidates ou each stand,
were announced last week.
Both tickets bear (tho names of
students of ability seldom seen ou
university pojitics Probably more
good men have been entered m thia
election than any previous one.
The argument has already develop
ed iuto a heated fray. Politicians on
both sides are using every means at
their command to boost their candi
dates and all kinds of pclitics have
been played.
Wendell Berge, candidate for fresh
man president; Harry Frye, candi
date ior sophomore president, and
Paul Simon, running for sophomore
member of the student publication
board, have little to worry about the
election. These men have each been
endorsed by both parties entering the
race and are the only ones running
for their respective offices. No office
has more than two candidates en-
teied.
A rre-lnventory 0f the election sit
uation would serve to indicate that
there is to be little of the "rough
stuff" such as was tried to an ex
treme last fall. The students as a
whole seem to have their minds fair
ly well made up and it is not ex
pected that they can be changed.
Good nfcn have been entered for all
effices and a close argument should
csult in each race.
What form of advertising and
boosting the two parties will take
Tuesday morning remains to be seen.
The llvline?s of the contest is not
expected to wane, "however, with the
exception that little "rough stuff" is
expected.
