TO SEND "JIMMY"
BEST 1 VACATION
Ask That Students Place Contri
bution in Boxes on
Campus
Sometime today boxes will be
placed at various places cn the city
campus to receive money for a vaction
trip for Jimmy Best, veteran Husker
athletic trainer.
For some time Jimmy has wanted
a vacation and the N Club is making
it possiblo for him. They evolved the
plan by which the money necessary
for the trip could be raised, namely,
by placing boxes at U. Hall, 12th and
M, and at the Armory entrance so that
passing students could easily contrib
ute anything they care to toward the
ftramer excursion of Nebraska's sport
veteran.
The boxes will be cared for by mem
bers of the N club and in a later edi
tion of the Daily Nebraskan will be
roported the amount raised.
AUSTRIAN COLLAPSE
LESSON TO AMERICA
Stepanek Tells Frosh of Value of
European Example to People
of United States
"A lesson for America in the col
lapse of the Dual Monarchy,,, said
Professor Stepanek in a lecture Tues
day morning to university freshmen
on the Hapsburg dynasty, is that the
Interests of cultured minorities should
be respected so that these minorities
may become one with the loyal ma
jority when the nation is in peril. Only
Soviet Russia and America, according
to Professor Stepanek, are studying
th World War openly In the schools;
the former because It Is able to Im
pose its proletarian concepts upon the
tparhora. and the later because it finds
a fairly coherent and reconcilable
body of opinion regarding the causes
and the significance of the war. In
most European countries, on the other
hand, historians and educators are at
such loggerheads over interpretations
of the great conflict that toacners are
afraid to discuss it even in those lands
where discussion is not prescribed.
"History is, after all." said Profes
sor Stepanek, "but a point of view,
Napolean called it a fable agreed up
on. There is no reason why America
should not have and maintain her own

Money For Prizes For People

Peace
TABLES TO RECEIVE
MONEY ON CAMPUS
Drive For Faculty Members to
Come on Friday and
Saturday
The Woodrow Wilson Foundation
fund drive begins today. The drive is
for the purpose of seauring af und to
be given in prizes to the foremost
people in the country who perpetuate
peace. Tables will be in Social
Science Hall, U. Hall, Library and
Engineering Muilding. The drive will
be carried on by the Mortarboards,
who will be in charge, and the old
and new Silver Serpents.
"This fund is something that will
last. It is similar to the Nobel Prize
which is contributed individuals but
this fund is more democratic, spelled
with a little 'd'," Professor Pfeiffer
said in an interview Tuesday after
noon.
The students' drive will be Wednes
day and Thursday. The drive of the
Faculty 'members will be held on
Friday and Saturday. The Faculty
members in charge of this drive are:
Laura B. Pfeiffer, Philo M. M. Buck,
Inez Philbrick, Lawrence Fossler and
Fred Dawson.
Woodrow Wilson, it must be re
membered, is a martyr to thecause of
peace. He is now broken in body but
not in mind. His face is haggard on
his voice is feeble. The expression of
his face indicates the silent agony of
these many years of unrealized ideals.
It is thought only fit to name this
fund after one who has given all to
the cause of peace.
Contributions of any amount will
be appreciated. Amounts from ten
cents upward will be accepted. Pos
ters will be distributed about the sev
eral biuldings.
STUDENTS GIVE
ORGAN RECITAL

NEBRASKA WINS FROM VISITORS
Nebraska won from the conference
leading pastimers from Washington
university, S to 5, Monday afternoon,
by hard and consistent hitting. The
Huskers again began the counting
when, with one away in the second,,
Smaha singled and patted the rubber
when "Rudyy" Ziegenbein reached for
cne and planted it out among the blue
bells, for two bases. Ziegenbein then
scored on Munger's single.
The visitors crossed a pair in their
half of the third and the Huskers also
helped in that frame. McCrory singl
ed, Thomsen failed to get out of the
vay of a pitched ball soon enough,
and both scored when Earl Carr, be
eoit.ing better known at every appear
ance, as the "Grand Old Man," smack
ed one good for a pair of sacks and
also good enough to provide mileage
home for McCrory and Thomsen.
Carr won the plaudits again rn the
fifth when he sent one for the ride
over right field fence. Thomsen, who
tripled just before him, was caught
off third before Earl' got in his lick.
Coach Frank signaled for a "squeeze"
and Carr miasml a -bunt. It must-have
made him mad.
Lewellen, first up in th- sixth led
off with a single which Ziegenbein
duplicated. Both advanced on Mun
ger's sacrifice and scored on' Joe Piz
er's single. This gave the Huskers a
three run lead, the score standing 7
to 4. Edgar, th'e hard hitting Wash
ington shortstop, hiked his Monday
pace and laid one over right field
fence for the long trot.
DeBolt, the more or less touted
moundman of the visitors, failed to
keep the fat ones out of ti e groove.
As a result the Nebraskans were cred
ited with thirteen hors.hide kisses
that would be hits in any league.
Munger's fas', one, interspersed with
a hook, kept the visitors wondering.
Ziccenbein's work with the aspen
places him along with Carr and Joe
t'izer in the old regularity class.
"Rudy," got a double and two singles
out of four chances.
Carr made a circus catch of a warm
grounder and Smaha's leap in the air
f.T a drive brought the customers up
on their feet.
The Huskers leave Thursday night
for Ames where they meet Iowa's
finest in a two-game series. .
