PLAY FOUR GAMES IN
GREEK TOURNAMENT
Acacia, Sig Alphs, Delts, and
Silver Lynx to Meet in
Semi-Finals.
The third round of the inter-fraternity
basketball tournament was staged
in a whirlwind fashion Wednesday
afternoon on Hie Armory floor. Close
scores marked the victories of Acacia,
Sigma Alpha Epsllon, Silver Lynx and
Delta Tail Delta.
Acacia opened the afternoon perform
ance by coming up from behind after
trailing 4 to 2 at the end of the first
frame, and winning from Delta Upsi
lon. The game was held up for
sonic minutes while the eligibility of
Danna, Delt forward, was questioned.
Dnnna was only registered this sem
ester. Tage led the ecoring with two
throws from the court and four free
flings.
With the score a 3 to 3 tie at
the end of the first half and those
points gleaned from the foul ring
Sigma Alpha Epsilon shoved down
the Phi Gams 15 to 7. Thompson
did the main scoring for the Sig
Alphs and Bernard found the hoop
twice for the Phi Gams. Locke sped
over the court In winning fashion but
failed to mark up with the excep
tion of three free tallies.
Sigma Phi Epsilon and Delta Tau
Delta settled their argument In the
fastest game of the afternoon with
Tau Delt on the lucky end. Both
teams played in a manner that
brought the varsity to mind. An
drews and Haverly repeatedly broke
through the Sig Ep defense and caged
fancy goals. Hubka with his guard
ing kept the Sig Ep total low. Cos
tello slipped in three field goals.
With a team depleted by Influenza
Delta Chi was nosed out of the Greek
tournament, 10 to 13, by Silver Lynx,
Bixby did the scoring for the Lynx
and Sommers acted as the main cog
in the Delta Chi scoring machine.
The opening frame ended 7 to 5 with
stiver Lynx trailing, their total re
sulting fiorn the free basket tossing
by Bixby. In the last few minutes of
the final half Bixby sneaked in a
trio more and with Boomer's throw
made their total 13, proving unlucky
for Delta Chi to overcome.

Returning Cornhusker Depicts
University Life in Germany
"Ah a university Btudont, the most
Interesting ftibject to me was the Ger
man university. I spent considerable
time studying'. the Ideals and methods
of the educational and social sides of
the German schools, and I am con
vinced, that despite the general opin
ion to the contrary, that the American
university has accompnished greatly
superior results."
IK this manner, Herbert Mayer '23,
who has just returned to Nebraska
arter an eight months' trip Into Ger
many, summarizes German education.
Mr. Mayer attended the University
two years previous to his trip. He
speaks German fluently and was thus
able, to come Into close contact, w'th
the Ideas of the German college man.
Mr. Mayer found the social life in
the German universities very different
from thnt at Nebrnskn. Women are a
vei v Inconsequential minority. In num
bers they average only about 25 to
1,000 men and they take no part In
school activities. There are dances
every week but very few nttend. The
great sport or tho German Is his visit
to the "wlerte sclinft." or German
"beer garden." There he will sit with
his companions, talking and drlnklns
beer, or wine, ir his finances permit,
lie often philosophizes, and h! con
versation improves greatly with a few
festive glasses. The German student
is more interested In spoits than he
was before the war. The university
itself has no spoits or any kind but
the individual students engage in soc
cer and boating.
UNI PLAYERS STAGE
O'NEIL DRAMA TONIGHT
"Bevbnd the Horizon," New
York Success, Will JJe Pre
sented at Temole
Theater.
The University Players will present
Eugene O'Neill's "Beyond the Hori
zon." at the Temple Theater tonight
at 8:20 p. m. This dram, scored a
splendid -success in New Cork City
md is conceded by critics to be one
of the best American plays every
written.
James Mayo, the practical, hard
headed farmer, Is played by C. L.
Coombs; Kate Mayo, his wife who
fills the mother's position of peace
maker between father and son, Is car
ried by Dora Lantz. John Dawson
plays the rough, roaring sea captain,
Dick Scott; Anderson Mayo, the
brother, is played by Nell Brown.
The leading role, Robert Mayo, is
taken by Herbert Yenne and his wife,
Ruth Atkins, by Helen Martin. Mrs.
Atkins, the scolding mother-in-law, is
carried by Marion Sargent; the little
child, Mary, by Ellen Lewellen. Wil
liam Norton plays the farm hand and
Carlton Hawley the doctor.
This is the first apearance for "Be
yend the Horizon" in Lincoln and the
theater-goers of the city are taking
advantage of the opportunity to see
this production. A few good seats,
however, are still left and are on sale
at Ross P. Curtice Co.
Ames Cage Team
Defeats Bulldogs
The Ames Aggies' basketball stock
took a rise when they nosed out Drake
29 to 27 in a fast game Tuesday eve
ning. The Cyclones displayed the
same brand of team work that they
used against Missouri the preceeding
week, but were unable to show in the
.ray with Nebraska.
Jacobson, long Aggie center, broke
through the Bulldog defense, showing
ease in handling the ball and hitting
the hoop. Raff, the midget forward,
whose work was of star quality up ts
his injury in the Grlnnell game was
not used, but will probably be in pi si
tion against the Huskers Saturday
night.
Iast year.'after being defeated on
their home floor by the Scarlet and
Cream five 26 to 7, the Aggies came
to Lincoln and evened matteis up in
one of the fastest games of last sea
son. News is prevalent In the Husker
camp that they are confident of re
fir. ting fie tale this year.
Ames uses the same'shrrt pass sys
tem of Missouri and nearly beat the
Showme team at their own game sev
eral weeks ago, when Missouri suc
ceeded In stealing a two-point victory
Dancing will close the Saturday eve
ning performance. 1 M
The Gorman colleges have national
fraternities but they are not Greek
'et'er. The rratniitles have no secret
organization. Tho members are recog
nized either by the fraternity colors
which they wear across their chests
on state occasions, or by the "painter
caps" which they wear to classes.
Gorman fraternities are divided into
two classes. There Is the fraternity
whose alms are social and educational
which resembles the American college
fraternity. Then, there Is the dueling
fraternity. This type of frnte-nlty is
organized purely for the purpose of
furthering the duel. Its members look
with contempt on (lie members of tho
social fraternity and consider tliem
"molly-coddles" and men of little
spirit. The members of tho dueling
groups must duel every Monday, Wed
nesday and Friday from 5 a. m. until
5 p. m., throughout the school year.
On these days all the fraternity mem
bers are required to miss school and
attend the duels.
Mr. Mayer witnessed several of
theso all day dueling matches and con
sidered them to be most interesting.
The duelers wear affairs like football
helmets which expose the entire face.
The eyes are covered with wire
goggles. They also wear shoulder
pads and neck protectors. Their arms
are covered with gauntlets. The Ger
man student duels with his best friend.
He is particularly proud of a terrible
face gash if his best friend has given
it to him. The duelers often pour

E A SGHFDULE
FOR COLLEGE WOMEN
Ten-Hour Day, Six Days a Week,
Is Program Outlined at
Barnard Col
lege. A proposition of a ten-hour day,
six days a week, for college women
has been proposed by the Board of
Student Presidents of Barnard Col
lege, and will be put to a vote fcy the
students in the near future. It is
urged by the members of the Board,
according to a dispatch sent to the
colleges all over the country, that
with the eight-hour day the pre
eminent cry in industry, surely the
ten-hour day is not asking too much
from the college girl.
The plan as outlined at Barnard,
a New York college for women, pro
poses a new point system to regulate
extra curricular activities. Eight
hours sleep, two hours exercise, four
for meals and incidental duties at
home, and ten for college activity
la the ratio proposed by the plan of
the presidents.
It Is explained that the new meth
od of extra-curricular activities would
be regulated by a point system, in
which eacli point would signify three
hours of work. No student of Barn
ard, were the system in effect, would
be permitted to carry more than a
total of twenty points of work a
semester, combining academic and
extra-curricular work.
