quarterback: Noble halfback; Hart
ley, fullback; Schoeppel, end; Wellcr,

Peterson, center.
More men from Nebraska than from

Boelter, Drake: McAdams, Kansas
and Schwartz, Kansas Aggies.
. California, Nebraska's runner-up in

SKITSJN SATURDAY
Faculty Expected to Submit a
Clever Act for Univcr-
sity Night.
Students who are planning to sub
mit skits for the University Night
program must present them in outline
form to the committee on or before
Saturday. Jan. 27. The committee will
then go over them and select t ho (
most desirable ones for the program.
The persons whose skits are chosen
will then be asked to stage them for
n final selection.
The committee will try to have an
equal number of stage and curtain
acts this year and anyone having any
suggestions of either nature is asked
to submit his idea whether he desires
to present it personally or not.
No definite place for the entertain
ment has yet been decided upon hut
arrangements are being made to ac
commodate all who wish to attend.
For the past two years many stu
dents have been unable to attend o
account of the seat shortage, but this
year the committee plans to eliminate
this undesirable feature so that all
who wish to attend will be able to
do so.
Each member of the committee will
be assigned a certain group to work
with in the development of skits.
Skits may be turned in at the Y. M.
C. A. office at the Temple or to any
member of: the committee.
The dramatic club has announced
that It will present a skit, and many
other organizations are expected to
do likewise. The committee is looking
with, much anticipation toward the
faculty and it is hoped that they will
come across with a good one.
The next committee meeting will
be held at Ellen Smith hall this af
ternoon at 5 o'clock.

Froniising sensational disclosures of extravagance, the special
House committee which has been investigating the expenditures
of the University, won from the House of Representatives consent
to continue the investigation. Only ten members of the body
voted against the continuance. High spots in the committee re
port were the declaration that the members of the faculty of the
College of Agriculture were devoting the major part of their time
to private business and taking their college work as a sideline,
and the doclai Mon that thousands of dollars were being wasted
by faculty nu-'- rs on junketing trips.

Coach Frank Takes Ten to Meet
Grinnell. Ames and
Drake.
Nebraska's basket tossers left at
12:30 last night on a three-game east
ern tour. Coach Frank's proteges play
Drake on Thursday, Friday evening
they take on Ames, and tackle Grinnell
Saturday. The team will return Sun
day. Ten men are making the trip to
test the strength of Ames and Grin
nell, neither of whom have played Ne
braska this season. Ames is, recog
nized as a strong opponent as the re
sult of holding Missouri to a low score
last week. Grinnell fell before Kan
sas, but reports coming from the Corn
husker camp give promise of a tight
game Saturday. The game with Drake
should have a different outcome than
the first one when the Cream warriors
fought off the fast passing of the littl?

ON DEAN I. F. CUTTER
The coinniltt
e i eport conclude I by
declaring that, "if you .'title this in
vestigation at the insistent demand
of 1 lie I'niversity authorities, you will
he dealing the limci'sity the most
seve;e b'ow it has ever had."
In reply to erpresslons made en the
floor ol the House. Monda.t, thai Chan
cellor Avery and otheis at the I'ni
versity objected to t he connection of
F. K. Kdgerton of Aim.ra with tho
investigation, the committee replied:
"We cannot see why the Chancellor
should object to the most thoiough in
vestigation when i: is conducted by
any citizen and taxpajer of the state.
Tile 1'nhersity belongs to the people
of the state, both high and low, who
are laying its expenses. If iis ex
penses will not bear most rigid inves
tigation, the people should know it."
The committee i eport pointed out
that attendance at the College of Ag
ricultwe has decreased 30 per cent
in the past five years; and that in the
same period, the faculty has increased
30 per cent and the expenditures have
increased 200 per cent. The legisla
tors declared that it had found that
"private orchards, private vineyards,
private farms, and many other private
enterprise occupy the time r.nd atten
lion of the faculty members." The
committee report attributed the de
crease in attendance to the fact that
the faculty members did not devote
their whole energy to teaching, but
rather considered it a side activity to
their outside enterprises.
Declaring that "thousands of dollars
of the .money of the people is con
sumed in junketing trips of faculty
members and employee?, an:! thr.-p ap
parently without return," the commit
tee report attacked Dean Irving S.
Cutter of the College of Medicine at
Omaha for alleged extravagance in
making trips. The report stated that
the expenses of Dean Cutter from Jan
uary 21, 1921 to July 1, 1922, were
$3,494.80 for personal reimbursements
and $S12.45 for traveling expenses.
The trips made during that time num
ber twenty-four. Two trips to Detroit
to the American Medical Association,
and two to Chicago to purchase books
are represented on the mileage ac
count. Trips were also made to a
meeting of the National Educational
Association at Des Moines, and to a
conference on medical education at
Chicago.
In regard to the two trips made to
purchase books and supplies, the com
mittee report says: "You will notice
that on two of the trips which Dean
Cutter made to Chicago, he was pur
chasing books and supplies. All other
departments including the Curtis ri
cultural school, purchase their supplies
through the purchasing agent's office
in Lincoln. Dr. Cutter seems to handle
these matters himself."
The committee report characterized
the payment of $2.2."7.4" to H. G.
Baldrige of Omaha as an attorney's
fee for representing the I'niversity in
a law suit between the governor and
the I'niversity, as "definite extrava
gance.' A motion introduced in the House
yesterday to dissolve the committee
led Representative Dysart to declare:
"I believe that it is for the best in
terests of the University to go on with
it and if an investigation is to be ef
fective it should be made by men none
too friendly with the cause."
The information concerning expen
ditures was furnished to the committee
by Harry D. l.andis. president of the
board of regents. The figures repre
sent amounts paid for salaries, wages,
commodities and all I'niversity ex
penses. Professor W. E. Sealock, dean of
the Teachers' College, was unable to
be in his office Tuesday because Ot
an attack of la grippe. Although not
fully recovered yesterday, he was car
rying on his work.
