may drop a little free-will offering aa
a "thank you" for the thirty-four years
of devoted service Best has given the
Husker school.
The "N" club, composed of all let
ter men in the University, originated
the idea to give the veteran trainer a
reward for the service he has so
faithfully given to Cornhusker ath
letes. Seventy-six year old Jimmy Best re
ceived his athletic training in Eng
land. Nearly all the time he has been
in the United States has been spent at
the hniversity of Nebraska. In the
old days ho made all trips with the
tt am ami would tenderly care for the
injured arms and bruised legs of Ne
biaska's former stars. For several
years he has been unable to get even
to the fields when athletic contests
are taking place.
California is the place Best has Ion?
desired to see and he hopes the sun
shine and sea air will make it pos
sible tor him to go on with his work
at the University.
Four boxes, placed so that every
student will pass them at some time
during the day, have been placed at
different places on the campus. Above
the boxes sogns have been placed to
attract the attention of passershy.
Ten cents from each of Nebraska's
four thousand sons and daughters will
give Jimmy a four hundred dollar
fund enough to give him a pleasant
trip west. Twenty-five cents from
each student will make the trip a lux
urient one.
Let us show that the younger gen
eration is not forgetful of the service
rendered by our elders for Nebraska!

TOURNEY
COMPLETED
FOR JIM BEST
SILVER LYNX WINNERS
OF TENNIS TOURNEY
Silver Lynx won the inter fraternity
tennis championship Monday after
noon by defeating Sigma Phi Epsilon
in a title match played on the Uni
versity courts before a large and en
thusiastic crowd. Silver Lynx won
6-3, 2 6, 7-5.
Members of the Silver Lynx team
were Gregg McBride and Cecil Mat
thews. The Sig Ep pair was Bob Rus
sel and Fred Colby.
Silver Lynx walked off with the
first set in a handy maifner. McBride
and Matthews were working their
placement shots In a handy fashion
an(; were constantly besting their op
ponents at the net.
The second sot was a different
story. The Sig Eps won it easily, 6 2.
Russel's servo was working in an
txcellent manner while Colby turned
loose a series of brilliant returns.
The third and deciding set saw the
Silver Lynx on the long end of a 7-5
count. The style of aerial play used
by the champions seemed to baffle
the Sig Eps. The cross-court shots
of McBride and the placements of
Matthews worked effectively and Sil
vor Lynx weathered the set with few
errors.
The final deciding game was won
by the Silver Lynx, when after an
exchange of volleys, McBride sent the
ball down the center of the court in a
hard drive which neither Russel nor
Colby were able to reach.

FEW REGISTER
FIRST
FOR NEXT YEAR
Students Slow to See Advisers
For Making Out Programs
When Registering Stars
SATURDAY WILL BE
LAST DAY TO FILE
Fees to be Paid September 4 to 7
Late Fees Charged If Do
Not Register Now
Registration for the first semester
of the 1922-23 school year was started
Monday morning with but a few stu
dents reporting to their advisers. The
entire routine of registration must be
concluded before Saturday of this
week. Students who do not register
now but return in the fall will b;
charged a late fee.
Fees will not be paid at this time.
Only the routine work of making out
schedules and filing them with the as
signment committee will be concluded
now. The fees will be paid from Sep
tember 4 to 7 in the Armory.
Changes in registration may be
made any time until the fees have
been paid according to the plans as
they now stand. Students may regis
ter now for what they wish to take
next year ami in case of failure or
decision to take something else, they
may make the changes in the fall pre
vious to paying the fees.
The first secester of next year will
start on September 11. Decision to
hold a pa.rt of the work of registration
during state fair week was arrived
at following a referendum vcte held
last semester at the same time as
the students decided how they wanted
their vacations for next year arranged.
Taying of fees during fair week will
enable many students to witness the
state exhibition who might not other
wise get the chance.
Students should procure programs
of study from the registrar as soon
as is possible. They shculd thensee
their advisors at the earliest possible
convenience in order that they may
get the work of registering over with
before the final rush on Friday and
Saturday. All the routine of the pre
fee paying must have been concluded
by that time.
The new plan is practically the
same as that tried out very success
fully for this semester registration. It
avoids the long, tedious waits in line
which uppc -r-classmeii and this year
freshmen abhor; it avoids much
chance for mistakes for each adviser
has a limited number of students to
take care of and he can devote more
care and time to seeing that every
thing is o. k.
Freshmen will regfster next fall at
the same time as upper classmen pay
their fees. They will be the only ones
who will have the long lines to both
er with and consequently the waits
will be considerably shortened. Break
ing into line and other tricks of the
older students are avoided by this
method since only the first year stu
dents will be in the line.
