Captain Weir May Be Unanimous
Choice as All 'American Tackle
Eckersall, Rockne, Jones, War
ner and Walsh Select
' Cornhusker Leader.
Ed Weir, captain of the 1924
Cornhuskers and said to be the out
standing player in the Missouri Val
ley conference, according to present
indications will be a unanimous
choice for the position as All-Ameri-can
tackle.
Weir has been placed on All-Amer-ican
and All-Western teams by many
critics and bids fair to gain the same
honors from other writers. Walter
Eckersall, Chicago sports writer and
recognized as one of the greatest
western critics, places the Cornhusk
er on his AU-American team.
"Weir first gave evidence of his
wonderful ability in the Illinois
game," says Eckersall. "He broke
through repeatedly to smear plays
and tackled Grange often. He played
the same kind of game throughout
the year and was the main factjr of
a successful season at Nebraska."
The choice of three nationally
known coaches, Glen Warner of
Stanford, Knute Rockne, Notre
Dame ,and Tad Jones, Yale, is unan
imous in selecting Weir as All-Amer-ican
tackle and a selection by the All
Sports magazine, compiled from re
ports of coaches all over the coun
try, gives him the same honor.
David J. Walsh of New York City,
nationally known sports writer and
critic, also placed Weir on his first
All-American team, which was pub
lished yesterday.
The youngest captain who ever led
a Nebraska team, Weir will be hack
again next year to lead the Corn
huskers and to play his driving game
on the line.

THE CLAVILUX.

his instrument.
Valley Cage Practice Is Well
Started According to Reports
Indications Show that Kansas,
Sooner and Aggie Teams
Will Be Excellent.
UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA
Norman, December 15. Sooner bas
ketball candidates were culled to a
select thirteen by Coach H. V. Mc
Dermott at practice last week. The
list includes five letter men and one
All-Valley forward, McBride.
The Oklahoma squad will have only
one week of rest during the Christ
mas holidays, the entire force resum
ing workouts at the University, De
cember 27. The team counted on to
start the season will probably be
composed of McBride and Ruppert,
forwards; Wheeler, center; and Dun
lap and". Goodwin, guards. Wheeler,
center, was 'given a place on last
year's third All-Valley team and all
the expected starters are letter men.
UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI.
Columbia, December 15. A hard
season at tlie Cage sport is predicted
here for Missouri Tigers and Coach
George Bond has no bright prospects
greeting him.
A number of regulars of last
year's team, which placed seventh in
the Valley race, have graduated and
another who was adjudged as per
haps the cleverest veteran on the
squad is out until next semester on
account of his grades. Nearly all
the sophomore material available will
be absent until after Christmrw on
the Christmas day football trip to
Los Angeles.
KANSAS STATE AGRICULTUR
AL COLLEGE, Manhattan, Decem
ber 15 With four letter men return
ing, Coach Corsaut, working with a
squad of sixteen men, expects a
strong team for the 1925 season at
the basket sport.
The only place where the Aggies
are at a disadvantage is in the size
of their men. The players are prob
ably as fast as any in the Valley but
are handicapped by size. It is ex
pected that Coach Corsaut will bring
through a team near the top, as last
year practically green aggregation
finished fourth in the Valley stand
ings with a .500 record.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS, Law
rence, December 15. Work on the
fundamentals of the game was the
program for the Jayhawk cagesters
here the past two weeks under the
guiding hand of Coach F. C. Allen.
Gordon and Belguard, forwards;
Heckert, center; and Wright and
Daniels, guards, compose the nucleus
around which the Kansas team will
be built.
The first game the Valley Cham
pions will play is with the Hillyards
of St Joseph, Missouri, January 3
and although team work is not be
ing stressed "there is plenty of time
for preparation and we will begin
bearing down on the men until those
who are football men begin coming
out," according to Coach Allen.
RIFLE SEASON WILL
START FEBRUARY 1
Contracts Not All yet Arrang
ed; Forty-five Practice

The intercollegiate rifle shooting
season starts February 1, it was an
nounced yesterday by Captain Eg
gers. Because all contracts sent out

sible to give a definite schedule at
this time, but good matches are be
ing scheduled.
Forty-five rifleirjn have been
practising daily on the University
range, and are being rounded into
form. Only thirty of these men are
eligible to enter competition, how

The Clavilux, the first instrument
to make possible the use of light as a
fine art, will be introduced to Lin
coln people for the first time when
its inventor, Thomas Wilfred, ap
pears in recital with his creation at
the City Auditorium at 2:30 o'clock
this afternoon and at 8:15 o'clock
this evening.
The coming of Mr. Wilfred with
his instrument has attracted the at
tention of many University and Lin
coln people. Those who saw the
Clavilux recital in Omaha last year
praised the performance highly.
Classes in the School of Fine Arts
of the University have been excused
this evening in order that students
may attend the Clavilux recital.
The artist playing upon the Clavi
lux released pure white light, molds
it into form, makes the form move
and change in rhythm, introduces
texture, depth and finally color ot
absolute purity and in any desired
intensity. The result is projected on
a white screen as a silent visual com
position with no more relation to
music than a painting or poem has;
beauty enjoyed through the eye
alone.

Mr. Wilfred hss received:
Thnm Wilfred, in his Clavilux
recital of Monday night at Normal
University Auditorium, took his
hushed watchers closer to the heart
of creation than they ever were

a composite of new impressions that
no one person could receive them an.
"One of the first marvels of the
night was when by his keyboard he

shadow was broken into the original
colors. It is absolutely impossible to
describe his marvelous effects."

tions en masse for the "Cornhusker."
When we give our Pan-Hellenic priz
es for high scholarship we throw
them open to all women in school,
not merely to our own members;
whereas the several hundred dollars'
worth of "plaques," given by the
men's fraternities go to the men's
fraternities only (to those having
fewest failures and delinquencies.)
Judging from our record in all lines,
should we not rather be rewarded
than be subjected to a humiliating
new ruling I
In general we question the fair
ness and the good taste of publish
ing the scholarship averages of the
women's fraternities. They should
be sent to the national organizations
and should be given publicity before

Worth looking into
IT'S the most interesting study in the world.
What is? Why you, yourself.
Put yourself under the microscope. Examine
yourself most searchingly to find out just what
kind of work you have a natural aptitude for.
Don't leave your career to chance. Don't be
satisfied with any nonchalant observation of
what may seem to be your best field.
Upperclassmen who have applied this careful
self-study will tell you it helped them pick out
the "major" which fell in most closely with
their natural fitness. The result greater in
terest and greater profit through their whole
college course.
Graduates will tell you that the man who
turns the microscope on himself is happiest in
his choice of a life-work.
It comes down to this some patient analysis
now may be the means of putting you on the
right track for the rest of your life,
