GREAT EVENT.
is i he opening
day of
the Nebraska high school biskuball
tournament, the greatest cl.ii.sis of
its pind in the world. It is the most
mammoth aggregation of high school
athletes ever assembled anywhere at
any time. It is the biggest evnt of
the year for both the visiting parti
cipants and for the University of Ne
braska. Keep in mind, Cornlmsker students,
the bigness of the affair. Don't taluk
that just because it is a hisli school
affair it is of no consequence or im
poitance. It vitally affects you and
your university. It brings mere pros
pective students in touch with the
university than all other events com
bined. It is the one big connecting
link between the University ol Nc-

Regular practice will be hell

Here are the various interpretations
of that often misused term, "gentle
man:" A man who never has pins under

A man who prefers the first edition
of a book to the last edition of a
newspaper.
A man's social standing is deter
mined by the amount of bread he
fats in a sandwich.
A man who never gives an inter
pretation of a dope-fiend.
An American who can fool an Ent-,-lirih

well worth your consideration. They

Making An Impression!
One young chap told us
that when he wanted
to impress a girl
with his importance
he found that neither his car
nor his ability to spend money
nor his superb game of golf
had as much effect
as bringing her into Magee's
and letting her see
where he bought his clothes!

STUDENTS HOLD MOCK
SESSION OF LEGISLATURE
Political science students in state
government, having attended several
sessions of the special session of the
state legislature, have decided to go
the legislature one better, and have
announced their intention of holding
a mock session of the legislature
next Thursday evening at 7 o'clock,
in the auditorium of social science
building.
The session will consist of the
work oforganiz Ing one bonse of the

mesne land?
Do you know where there is an
oil field in Asia, the chief source of
copper in America, a lake in Siberia,
a British possession in Central Am
erica, or a city in Persia?
Such questions as these sure in
cluded in the new "freshman brain-
meter" resembling the famous Edi
son questionnaire, w-hich has recent
ly been invented by Prof. Dana Carl
ton Munro, of the department of
politics and history at Princeton
university, and formerly professor
of history at the University of Wis
consin. The use of the new test as a mid
year examination at Princeton re
sulted disastrously for the fresh
man. Over half of the class failed.
Members of the faculty were quoted
as saying that the questionnaire
was "over their headfj" Professor
Munro regards his test as an ex
periment, however, and said that it
would hav.i to be nsed for several
years before he could appraise its
value.
Tests of mental alertness such as
Edison's, will probably supplant the
present system of listing college
students at Northwestern university,
according to an anopneement made
by President Walter Dill Scott. He
looks forward to the discard of the
high school diploma, passing grade,
or other usual formulae for college
entrance, and the possibility of using
the new methods in selecting instruc
tors. Daily CardinaL
"Few girls with bobbed hair come
into our shop anymore," said a down
town barber this morning, and those
baring their hair stfll uncut scarce
ryp ver come. The girls are letting It
grow, and those that haren't yet had
it -ut aren't going to take the plunge.
1 don't know why it is some ol them
say that it's too much troubl2 to keep
lixed. Others say it's much easier.
I should say," the barber said, 'that
it a'.l depends on the hair nnd the
girl."
Girls have overcome thfir first
bashfulness at doing busine.-s in a
place generally conceded to be man's
domain, the barber said. They take
the procedure as a matter of course,
and many of them come in as casualiv
as a man does. More, however, bring
from one to half a dozen friends, and
make a celebration out of the affair.
Asked if tne girls as a rule we.e
harder to please than the men, te
barber replied.
"There isn't much difference. After
a girl has had her cut the first time
and has decided how she wants it
afterward there isn't much trouble,
except with the naturally fussy ones.
The biggest difficulty lies in the f-ict
that a girl doesn't know how long
the distance 'just to the tip of my
ear' is. Boys," he added, "are as
likely to be hard to please as the
girls.
"Some boys are as nervous and
fussy as old maids, while otht-rs are
as downright sissy as any girl. Some
rimes we feel like removing a few of
them to the middle ot the sited,"
he said.
"Girls do not talk much in a barber
shop," the barber declared, unless t
one another. A boy, if he feels like
it will keep up a running conversa
tion with the barber or anyone else
in the shop.
"It's all right for girls to bab their
hair," the barber remarked. 'But
I've always refused to cut the iair
of any woman that I knew was mar
ried, and was doing it just for tiie
fad. When they have nice hair, they
ought to keep it. Besides," he ad
ded, "their husbands are likely to
come down and jump all over me
when they find out what has tap
