KEYNOTES OF THE STADIUM BUILDERS CAMPAIGN.
"The facts will arjnic for themselves," Prof. M. M. Forr.
"Whatever Nebraska starts out do do, she does, and the
stadium canipaiini will be no exception," Chancellor Samuel
Avery.
"Nebraska students must show by their attitude toward
this memorial stadium whether they are worthy successors of
the men who sacrificed for them in the world war," Prof. F. M.
Flinjr.
"There were no slackers anions the jrirls of '17: there will

"Y.iU call to the team. "Co team Ho;' now call to your
selves. '(Jo student body do.' " Harold Hartley, football captain.
"This stadium drive is the beginning of a wonderful spirir
at Nebraska. You can't afford not to pret in on it." Fred Daw
sen, Dean of Men.
Fo;:r thousand students, ready to
accept the challenge whie'i thirteen
other western colleges Inive issued fo
Nebraska in the form of stadiums,
crowded into the Ciw Auditorium for
the rally which Monday morning
opened up the campaign to raise S90,
000 r,i pledges from among the ranks
of the students before the eid of the
Veek.
When at the close of the meeting
riiauncc:' Nelson, presilen: of the
Ii.iioecr.ts Society, anpmji.ct d thru
tnliege of Law had idgod lit) pt r
cent and still had some members of
the college to solicit, the students sent
forth a war whoop indicating that the
Laws would not surpass any other col
l'ce in the school before the campaign
ends Friday evening with a rousing
rally and parade. The law school
quota was $3,520 and the amount of
pledges neared $4,000 and were still
coming.
Prof. M. M. Fogg of the department
of journalism, presided at the rally.
In introducing Mr. Fogg as the chair
man of the meeting, Chauncey Nel
son told how every student who had
been approached en the subject of
working on the Stadium Builders'
Committee had been "tickled to death
to serve." They sometimes doubted
their ability to do the things asked
of them, but they were always glad
to work. That is the spirit with which
the whole school Is entering upon
this campaign.
Air of Expectation.
As Frof. Fogg assumed the role of
chairman, the crowd of four thousand
breathed as if with an air of expecta
tion, as of persons about to start upon
an Important duty which they knew
must be accomplished and knew de
pended on them.
Fogg told of how four anl one-ha'f
years ago, the City Auditorium had
been crowded with University students
backing 100 per cent the Red Cross
campaign. The students gave a "su
rerb exhibtfon of a devotion to an
ideal and with a sense of duty, got be
hind the Red Cross." Frof. Fogg then
went on to tell of the scenes which
were enacted about the campus as
men left their class rooms to enter
the field of battle. He told of how
men had left his office saying, "The
old Unl. has done a world for me. I
have had a happy life. If I don't
coma back all right. Good byo.;1
Then how one. man asked his parents,
f'Father and Mother, what's the dif
ference whether I spend my life
through a period of forty or fifty
years, three score and ten, or in one
glorious moment on the field of bat
tle?" Fogg then launched Into a short ex
planation of the Stadium. "Ttoday,"
ht said, "this college generation is
gathered here in the Interests of a
great cause. That great cause lies In
part In this monumental edifice.

FOOTBALL WAGER
CHOSEN WEDNESDAY
itn.'Ient Managers of Kinor
Sports Will Be Done Away
With May File Again.
Announcement will bo made Wed
i.esdny afternoon of tne men chosen
:o act as football mf.n;ip,eis for .?
1922 season.
There will be no student managers
in the minor sports, wrestling, cross
country, swimming, tennis and golf.
There will be managers for only
'the four major sports; football,
basketball, baseball, and track. This
was the decision made by the Board
of Control of Student Managers com
posed of Fred T. Dawson, Director of
Athletics, Dr. Lees, chairman of Elig
ibility Committee, and Professor
-Scott, Missouri Valley Conference
Fatuity Representative. Any man who
has applied for position as sophomore
candidate or junior assistant manager
in any of these minor sports -will be
allowed to file his application for
sophomore candidate or junior assist
ant manager in basketball, baseball,
or track. There are still openings for
sophomores as candidates in foot
ball.
The reason for dispensing with
minor sport managers was that there
was not enough work for them to do.
and that the expense would be too
great in taking them on all of the
trips. The captains of the teams in
the minor sports will act as managers.
Coach Dawson Is desirous that
more sophomores apply for position
of sophomore candidate in football.
Those few who are out, he says,
are doing well, but he wants more
men.

F.
Head cf Electrical Engineering
Department Explains Field
to First Year Men.
Trot. V. L. Hollistcr of the Depart
ment of Electrical Engineering ex
plained the field of electrical engi
neering to freshmen engineers Mon
day at 5 in M. K. 206. He divided
the whole E. E. field into what might
bo called "Signal Engineering," and
"Power Engineering."
"Where there is competition, there
is business," said Prof. Hollister in
explaining the apparent overcrowding
of the professions. "The fact that
there are so many graduates from this
college shows that there is a field for
the young engineer. There are many
regions of human endeavor yet unex
plored, problems untouched. Engi
neering, itself, involves problems con
cerning power, stresses and so on,
and their solution. To solve them
well, an engineer must have a knowl
edge of the laws of the universe. He
who utilizes the forces and laws of
the universe and of nature for the
rulvancement and betterment of the
race might be called an engineer.
"The 'field of medicine includes
homeopaths, diagnostitions, surgeons,
dentists, osteopaths, dietitions and
hosts of othtfs," said Mr. Hollister
in illustrating the overlapping of the
various divisions of civil engineering
that have developed since the old dis
tinction of civil and mlitary engi
neering, was dropped. "The electri
cal engineer deals with telephone in
struments and apparatus their manu
facture, sale and operation, telegrap!
instruments and apparatus simplex
and multiplex, radio instruments and
apparatus, and problems connected
with them, all under the heading of
signal engineering. Under the head
of power engineering, he deals with
larger rates of flow of electric cur
rents and high voltages, and is con
cerned with the production, transmis
sion and use of electric power. How
ever, he does not confine himself to
this, but is interested in his field from
the coal pile to the reflectors sur
rounding lights, and the color of the
walls in the rooms where the light
are."
Selling and promoting the use of
electrical apparatus were described by
Prof. Hollister as among the less tech
nical departments of electrical engi
neering. "Fifteen years ego, a man
in a town in Illinois asked me if an
electric motor was a practical thing
if it would work," he said, in ex
plaining the former need for promo
tion engineers. "The sales engineer
is concerned with two things, to sell
the right equipment, and not to sell
the wrong equipment."
Amone the biggest fields for young
'engineers just graduated from college,
according to Prof. Hollister, are pub
lic utilities, government service, and
the employ of great companies such
as the Westinghouse Electric Manu
facturing company, and the General
Electric company. "If some day you
are called upon to take the chair of
a president of some company, do not
hold back. More engineers are taking
financial positions every day, and
their training is valuable to them in
those positions," he concluded.
Miss Genevieve Addleman, '20, will
appear in a Stuart Walter 1-roductIon,
"The House of Job," In Lincoln and
Omaha about Christmas time on a
tour with her company. Miss Addle
man has followed up her prominence
in University dramatics with consid
erable success in the portmanteau
plays of Stuart Walker.

An old rivalry has been revived in
;he Stadium campaign.
The College of Law and the Col
logo of Dentistry are out for blood
to gain the leadership in the race to
see which college surpasses its de
noted total the highest.
Monday night at 9 o'clock, the Laws
were leading by a mere 5 per cent.
The Laws reported 146 pledges, twelve
more than their total of 134. That
gives them a percentage of 10S.9 and
sends them out as leading the school.
The Dents were close on their heels.
At 7 o'clock George Smaha, Dent
chairman, had 76 pledges for a per
centage of 76 per cent. He lined his
committee up and at 9 o'clock he
came rushing in with the additional
pledges to take the college across the
Inn cr cent mark by four pledges.
The Dents have .eeu a part of the
University of Nebraska but a short
few years and students of the college,
by virtue of its distance from the
campus proper. fome times feel that
they are not an exact part of the Uni
versity. Their action Monday in pass
ing their quota before most of the
colleges had gotten a good start puts
them solid with the entire school,
makes even the Laws look up to them
as a serious rival for college spirit.
Delta Sigma Delta, denial frater
nity, had gone over the top in the
Stadium pledging by noon Monday.
Phi Alpha Delia, law fraternity which
maintains a house, was still a little
short of its mark Monday night.
Laws Lead.
With a percentage of 10S.9, the Col
lege of Law Monday night led the race
in the contest among the colleges to
raise $90,000 from the ranks of their
students as the booming starter to
ward the building of the Memorial
Stadium to be built within the next
year at a total cost of $430,000. Fof
lowing the completion of the campaign
to pledge 3.600 units from among the
students of the University, the alumni
and interested friends will be asked
to raise $340,000, or 13.600 units. The
Laws went over the top in the big
race, reporting pledges totaling 146
units out of a quota of 134 units and
topping their money total of $3,350 by
$300.
Closely trailing the College of Law
was the College of Dentistry with 104
units raised. The Dents promise to
report more units by early Tuesday
morning and with an equal start in the
race claim they would have beat the
Laws. The Lawyers started cam
paigning late last week and before
the Monday morning classes were
