Dedication of Stadium Will
Leave No Time for An
nual Tussle.
The annual freshman-sophomore
Olympics will not be held Homecom

cided recently. Because of the dedi
cation of the new stadium on that
day, there will be no time for the
fray, so it has been postponed until
the morning before some other
game. The definite date has not been
set.
The first Olympics were held in
1908. Dr. Condra is the "daddy" of
the idea which has now become a
tradition. The late Dr. Bessey gave
the affair its name' of "Olympics."
The Innocents have been in charge
of it since 1910.
The main purpose of the tradition
is to create better fellowship among
the men of the two classes, and to
give the new men a chance to show
their athletic ability.

ASK BIG SISTERS TO
FIND LITTLE SISTERS
Senior Advisory Board Says
Freshmen Girls Still Ask
ing for' Sponsors.
Senior advisory board is sending
out another plea to big sisters to get
acquainted with their little sisters at
once. Not a day passes but sev
eral freshmen girls appear at Ellen
Smith hall and ask who their big sis
ters are.
Upperclass girls those who have
been chosen for big sisters, have a
distinct service to perform, the board
believes. Little sisters need them
and want to know them now.
Some new girls have changed
their addresses since registration and
they are especially difficult to lo
cate. If they will give their new
addresses to some member of the
senior advisory board their big sis
teYs will be informed. Or if any
big sister cannot find her little sis
ter she should let the board know.
The senior advisory board is plan
ning a picnic for Thursday, October
25, for all big and little listers. It
will be held at Antelope park so that
there will be no limit to the num
ber who may attond. Tickets will
be on sale late next week.
Nebraska athletic succeed in pro
portion to their student support.
Get the Nebraska spirit.

The freshman stood in the midst
of the campus and pondered. The
catalog Btated that the Armory was
right across from U hall but after
a thorough investigation he had
found the catlog wrong! That build
ing was not the Armory. It was
Memorial hall.
What should he do? He took off
his green cap and chewed the red
button awhile. What if it should
ever circulate that such a misrepre
sentation had been made?
In a panic he turned to one of
those holding down the nearby walL
"Oh, say, is that Memorial hall?
he queried.
"It is," anwBered the amused up
perclassman. "Well! Look here," exclaimed our
friend, the freshman. "A big mis
take's been made. The catalog has
it labeled the Armory! Some one
has been negligent."

STUDENTS MUST AID
CAUSE OF EDUCATION
Dean Buckv Tells Freshmen
That American Students
Bear Responsibility.
If education is to be furthered and
if the traditions of learning are to
be carried on, the universities and
university students of this country
must do it, Dean P. M. Buck of the
College of Arts and Sciences told the
freshman lecture groups, Monday ev
ening and Tuesday morning in Social
Science auditorium. The subject of
his talk was "The Liberal Arts Col
lege." Whether or not we wish to do so,
we have the responsibility. America
is the one country today that is fitted
for advancing learning, the Dean
stated, after comparing the econom
ical conditions of this country with
the chaotic conditions of other impor
tant nations on the globe. Social,
political, and economical conditions in
the Old World are such that learning
can barely exist, he explained.
While traveling around the world
last year Dean Buck visited and lec
tured at many European and Asiatic
universities. He noted that the ex
isting economical conditions of each
country had effect upon learning and
students.
The Btudents of other countries are
despondent, alarmed, doubtful about
the future, he continued. They do
not know from one day to the next
what misfortune may befall them or
into what kind of anarchy their coun
try may be thrown. The general feel
ing of the people of Europe and Asia
is one of profound depression.
"What a contrast such is to the
feelines of our students!" Dean Buck
exclaimed. "Here they are optimistic,
and positively directed toward a hap
py future."
Giving a Btudent an opportunity
to learn is one of the most important
aims of the College of Arts and Sci
ences, the Dean insisted. To be edu
cated one must know himself, and to
know himself he must know that
which is about him or nature and
the society in which he is placed or
man. Until then one is not educated,
declared the Dean.
