TELLS FRESHMEN
OF SCANDINAVIA
First European People to Land
on Shores of the United
States Were Norsemen.
MATERIAL AID TO WORLD
Slides Shown Picturing Differ
ent Industries and Life
of the Northern
Countries.
An illustrated travcloguo on "Scan
dinavia" was presented to the fresh
men or the College of Arts and Sci
ences Monday afternoon and Tuesday
morning by l'rol'essor Nels ncngston
of the Department of Urology and
Geography. Professor Kengstou hegnn
by declaring that it has been almost
definitely established that the first
Europeans on American soil were the
Norsemen, who sailed from Scandi
navia to Iceland, from Iceland to
Greenland and from that country to
the northern cast of the United
States. He also pointed out that a
large number of the immigrants to
this country have come from Scan
dinavia and that these immigrants
have been easily assimilated and
have made industrious and law-abiding
citizens.
The professor also mentioned the
contributions that the Scandinavian
countries have made in the way of
art literature and architecture. In
the field of literature Scandiuavia
has produced such men as Isben,
Knute Ilamsen, and BJorgenson. The
architect who designed the Wool
worth Building was a Scandinavian.
In the field of music Grieg, a Scan
dinavian composer has been promin-ent-
JYofessor Bengston then showed
slides illustrating a journey taken
through Scandinavia. He showed
rural scenes in the three Scandinav
ian countries, Norway, Sweden and
Denmark. He explained that in all
these countries the farms are smaller
but neater than in the United States.
In Denmark the country is low and
flat so that agriculture is easy. In
Norway the land is rougher and
farming is carried on chiefly in the
mountain valleys.
Slides illustrating city life in Scan
dinavia were also shown by Profes
sor Bengston. Scenes in Copenhagen
Christiana and Stockholm were used
to typify Scandinavian city life. The
professor pointed out that automo
biles are not common in Scandinavia
even in the cities horse vehicles are
used. Pictures showing the Norweg
ians at their favorite winter sport of
skiing were shown.
Views along the west coast or Nor
way wore then shown by Professor
Bengston. These views depicted the
glacier and the cliffs along this part
of the Scandinavian coast. The lec
ture ended with some scenes in Ham
morfest the town on the extreme
northern part of the Norwegian Pen
insula.
Barred in New York and New
Jersey, marathon dancers who Sat
urday night set out to smash the
long distance dancing record, were
Tuesday toddling along against time
somewhere in Connecticut without
missing a step, reports say.

THE DAILY
The Sport Circle
Proof of tho national "recognition
bolng given Cornnusker teams is
shown by the fact that the Christian
Science Monitor has roquostod Its
Lincoln correspondent for a long
story on the Nebraska track team.
Included in the article will bo tho
prospects for the remainder of the
year and a review of the season so
far.
Golf fans are preparing to intiato
the third year of that sport at the
University. Several meets have been
scheduled for the season. Tryouts
will be held during the latter part of
tills month.
For the remainder of the year track
men will, work out oil the new" dirt
oval track on the drill field. The
plan of having the men work out on
the Lincoln hiyh school field was
found to be impracticable because of
tho long distance the athletes had to
be transported and tho consequent
waste of time.
At Ohio State intramural contests
are being held in horse shoe pitching.
So far at Nebraska only tho janitors
have taken up the barn yard golf. A
contest between the boys from the
short grass country and men from
the Ag college might be arranged
easily.
SAYS SOLUTION OF
PROBLEM OF WORLD
MUST BE SPIRITUAL
Rev. Frank I. Finch of the Warren
M. E. church addressed students and
faculty at Nebraska Wesleyan uni
versity Monday. He said injyief:
"We are living In a time 6f great
transition and are moving at a pace
our forefathers never knew. It is
a spiritual transition. The other day
I saw a picture of yoimg Chinese
girls dressed-as flappers and carry
ing a huge banner which bore the
legend: We will have co-education
in China.' The solution to the prob-
lem of the world must be spiritual.
The mind of the world is Just now
filled with fear.
"This fear may be classified into
five sorts, the biological, economic,
the psychological, the governmental
and the moral. One third of the
population of the world controls seven-eighths.
The yellow race controls
one-eighth. The economic conditiou
is caused by the biological condi
tions.
"Our minds are not keeping pace
rvth nnr nhvsical strides. Cities
have grown so that we cannot meet
the problems of their physical needs.
H. G. Wells says that the ship ot
civilization is now in the act of sink
ing. The world is possessed with
hatred and suspicion. I have been
lntelv in Pittsburgh and it seemed
as if I were sitting on a Barrel ot
powder. The increase in our spend
ines for war grows alarmingly. The
world demands democracy and a
justice that is expressed in demo
cracy. Latent in the world is this
demand In every part. Insistent Is
the demand for wise leadership to
guide in the way that has been lost.
I am alarmed not that civilization
may collapse but that the church may
fail at this time." The Lincoln Star.
DECLARES EINSTEIN
THEORY IS AN INSULT
TO COMMON SENSE
' Santa Clara, Cal. A new voice was
added to the controversy over the
Einstein theory of relativity, when
Father J. S. Ricard, famous astron
omer and seismologist, declared the
foundations of the theory were "rick
ety," some of Its fundamental postu
lates "absurd." and the entire theory
an "insult to common sense."
The recent Lick observatory test
of the bending of star light, Father
Ricard said, was explicable other
wise than by the Einstein theory and
declared that in his opinion Captain
T. J. J. See, naval astronomer who
denounced the Einstein structure as
"humbug," was taking a "broader
and more metaphysical view of the
subject than those who think they
have established Ftastein's theory by
observation." The Lincoln Star.
NEBRASK AN
Kansas and Colorado
Students Will Study
Farming This Summer
The farm is coining into Its own.
Early in Juno a unique llack-to-the-Farm
experiment Is to be undertaken
by the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W.
C A. Jointly In MacPherson County,
Kansas. Its object is to Interest
students in rural conditions and coun
try life. As farm hands and cooks
for harvest hands, college men and
women from several colleges and uni
versities of Kansas and Colorado will
go out to study at first hand actual
conditions that confront the farmer
and his wife.
In speaking of the experiment yes
terday in New York, Miss Winifred
Wygal likened it to a similar use of
their vacations by another college
group who went out as workers in
factories, shops and restaurants to In
vestigate industrial conditions two
years ago.
"Tho men will go as harvest hands
with the regular hours and work of
the typical hired man," said Miss
Wygal. "The girls will go directly
into the farm house kitchens, cook
ing for the harvest hands or doing
whatever the farmer's wife wants
done. Men and girls alike will work
for wages, but they will all bo there
because they believe agricultural In
dustry is at the root of ail our econ
omic problems. They are convinced
that college trained men and women
have a responsibility toward finding
a way out."
The project will run from June
!)th to July 31st. Wet'k-end confer
