NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, The snake has fasted for four weeks in Lincoln, and he probably had no food for several weeks before his arrival here in a carload of bananas consigned to a fruit company. Newspaper stories of the recalci trant conduct of the Central Ameri can visitor attracted considerable at tention over the state, and severpl letters were received by Dr. R II. Wolcott, chairman of the zoology de partment, concerning the care which should be given snakes from warmer climates than that of Nebraska. Needs Mouth Washes. Milk baths and olive oil rubs were the treatments suggested by Mrs. L. M. Garman, who has had experience in theatrical work with snakes from the tropics. Mouth washes of dis enfectants" must be used, she says, to prevent infection. Luis liked the idea of the milk bath very well, if one may judge from his conduct, for he has been in and out ever since the milk was put in a dish in his wire cage in Bessey hall 101 a few days ago. The milk has soured, but Luis' disposition has not, for he is now a brighter and happier snake. The theory of the milk bath is that the boa will ab sorb some of the nourishment from the milk through his skin. The olive oil bath and mouth wash have not yet been tried, for Dr. Wol cott does not wish to overwhelm the snake with attention. He wants Luis to feel at home as much as possible in his restricted quarters, and so he has decided to wait a few days be fore trying the olive oil rub. Do Not Know Purpose. The purpose of the oil rub is not known for certain. It may be that the snake is supposed to absorb nourishment, as with the mjlk. On the other hand, bright young stu dents of the department have sug gested that the rubs are to keep Luis supple and in good condition, much as a contortionist is supposed to anoint himself with angle-worm oil. Besides Luis' refusal to eat, there is another matter which is bother ing the members of the zoology de partment somewhat they think that Luis may have been slandered. Luis may not be Luis, but Luisa depart ment members do not know. Luis or Luisa refuses to be interviewed, and turns all newspapermen away with a five-foot shrug of his or her shoulder. BERGE GIVES TALK AT WASHINGTON MEETING Addresses Law-enforcement Conference on "The Stu dent as a Citizen" Wendell Berge, '25, gave an ad dress on "The Student as a Citizen in College," at a banquet Saturday night at a law-enforcement confer ence held in Washington, D. C, April 5 and 6, attended by representative from more than 150 colleges and uni versities.

NEBRASKA, SUNDAY, APRIL 6, 1924 PRESENT SKITS IN NATIVE COSTUMES Foreign Students Sing and Dance at International University Night. ONE-ACT PLAY BY TAGORE IS STAGED The first international university night, sponsored by the Cosmopolitan club of Nebraska, was presented last night at the Temple theater by va rious groups of foreign students in native costumes. In the opening scene Filipino, Ger man, Spanish, Dutch and Russian na tional dances were given by stu dents in native costumes under the direction of Fred Goldstein. These were followed by a camp-fire scene in the woods of Germany where folk songs were sung in the native tongue. "Chitra," a one-act play by Ta- gore, was presented by three Indian students and Miss Laura Rooney. This play is well-known in Lincoln and was recommended by Dean Philo M. Buck, Jr., who spent considerable time in India last year ctudyii.; In dian customs and traditions. The Japanese skit, presented in two scenes, first a "living Japanese picture," and then several dances in Japanese costumes. , Amy Martin gave several vocal selections in ac companiment to the dances. The Philippine Island play was given by a large group of Filipino students. It depicted a party for one of their number who is leaving tf at tend school in America. The young man tells his friends of his expec tations of life in the land of opjv.r tunity. After five years in America he returns to his friends in his own country and relrtes bis experiences and impressions of America. When his story is finished and the curiosity of his friends in regard to his newly acquired' ideas is satisfied, the party is ended by a native Philippine dance. DEAN BUCK WRITES ON mi Discusses Political Condition of India in Yale Review Article. "What India Wants," is the sub ject of a twenty-five page article by Dean Philo M. Buck, Jr., published in the April issue of the Yale Re view. This article is a result of Dean Buck's stay of six months at the University of Bombay as ex change professor under the auspices of the Carnegie Institute of Inter national Education. Dean Buck discusses the condi tions in India which are making many of the educated and intellectual per sons advocate a change in govern ment a breaking away from Brit ish authority. Some persons are more radical and demand complete separation from authority and cap ital, but others would , keep trained experts and advisors. The common people are for the most part uncon cerned. Some leaders attempt to prescribe for India's ills with other schemes of crushing industrialism, with a return of the family spin ning wheel and the like. Needs Personal Understanding In drawing his own conclusions, Dean Buck states, "What India wants and needs is a return to the personal understanding between the govern ment and the people. How this cun be achieved, and trust and confidence again be established, is a question for Indian and English statesmen. Sympathy, trust, understanding, these are big words; they mean leadership in the widest possible sense." Dean Buck advocates government al co-operation with the Indian Na tional Congress at which the only European present was an American college professor. "The Indian is not difficult of ap proach," continues Dean Buck. "He is quick to respond to sympathy, far quicker than most people, and he can trust further than most when trust is called forth by sympathy, if once a basis can be found for co-operation by getting together 11 Lhe various conflicting political snd so cial interests in the country, the fu ture is reasonably secure. But if not, there are darker days ahead for the Indian statesmen and the Brit ish administition." Weather Forecast Sunday Fair; not much change in temperature.

The target pits are also being put in order for spring use. Each man will probably fire about sixty rounds a day. The department plans to use trucks to transport men to the range.
