The Daily Nebraskan VOL, XXIV NO. 91. TO INVESTIGATE SELF-SDPPORT Will Ascertain Number of Stu dent Working for All or Part of Education. UNIVERSITY OFFICIALS PLAN QUESTIONNAIRES Questionnaires, the answers to which will be riven by all students in the University, from which statistics the percentage of self-support of students will be figured, will be cir culated in Wednesday classes by in structors. In accordance with the statement issued by Chancellor Avery urging cooperation of the students and fac ulty in the securing of the figures, general sentiment seems to be highly in favor of the plan, according to those in charge. Individual answers will not be In vestigated, and, since no signatures are asked or required, identification of writers will be virtually impossi ble. Statistics will be compiled from the entire mass of answers, and not from selected material. No students are forced to answer the questions, but are urged to do so in as accur ate a manner as possible, in order that definite knowledge of the per centage of self-supporting students may be made up. A similar plan inaugurated in the College of Law a few weeks ago proved highly suc cessful. More than half the mem bers of the college were found to be self-supporting. No questions will be circulated among the student body. All lists of questions will be in the hands of in structors. - Instructors will inquire of the members of their classes throughout the day if there are any who' have not had opportunity ' to answer the questions, and will give them opportunity if they desire it Students are urged to adhere strictly to the numbering system, in order that decking and listing the results may be facilitated. Answers to questions will be turned in to in structors, who will turn in the group answers to the Registrar. Compila tion of the statistics will be com pleted as soon as possible. Students are urged to prepare their answers beforehand' by using the following list, in order that as little time as possible will be taken from classes: 1. Are you entirely supported by parents and friends? 2. Are you wholly or partially self supporting? A. Wholly self sup porting? Note: If it is your own money you are using to defray your expenses, or money you have borrow ed and are under legal obligations to repay, you are wholly self-supporting. B. Partially self-supporting? 3. State, in rough approximation, what proportion of your support during this college year is derived from the following sources: A. Parents or friends. B. Wages received as a result of your own en deavor before entrance in the Uni versity. C. Wages earned during the last summer vacation. D. Wages re ceived from labor during the whole college year. E. Money borrowed which you are under legal obligation to return. Note: The total of the above five classes should be one hundred per cent. If not, indicate by note the source of the balance. If you. are receiving "room and board," or any other particular item from parents or labor, estimate its proportion to your expenses for the college year. 4. What are your approximate expenses for the college year? 5. If you are engaged in putting yourself through college, how many hours, approximately, do you spend per week on such labor during the school year? 6. What is the nature of outside work, if any? . 7. What is the occupation of your parents? Note: If they are not alive, state their occupation prior to their decease. 8. Sex? 9. Ia what college in the Univer sity are you entered? 10. What is your major subject? 11. To what class do you belong? 12. How many hours of University work are you carrying? ' Extension Division Publishes Booklet The Extension division of the Uni versity has published a booklet of outline questions on the literary val ues of Chaplin's "Five Hundred Dol lars," and other stories for use by teachers in the state. The booklet, prepared by Prof. F. A .Stuff, will be distributed at fifteen cents each copy. This is the seventh of a series of lesson plans which have been pub lished by the University. They have received wide demand and are gen erally used by high-school English teachers in the state.

"I want to supplement the great Rhodes Foundation by providing a similar opportunity for older students of proved ability, and for women as well as men. Furthermore, I want to make it possible for these persona to carry on their studies in any coun try in the world where they can work most profitably," was the statement made by Mr. Guggenheim. While it is expected that the fel lowships will ordinarily be used for study in Europe, they may be used as well in other parts of the world, as, for example, the United States, Latin America, Australia or the Far East. The fellowships are open not only to candidates engaged in research work along academic" or artistic lines but also to those interested in the workings of foreign systems of gov ernment, in the study of social or business conditions or in productive scholarship in the fields of the vari (Continued on Page Two.) NO NEW CASES ARE REPORTED Believe That Danger of Small pox Epidemic in Univer sity Is Over. MANY STUDENTS RECEIVE INNOCULATION RECENTLY No new cases of smallpox have been reported to the City Health office this week, and it is almost as sured that there will be no epidemic in Lincoln. One pharmacy student attended classes after he had been infected with the disease, and ex posed several hundred others, but the prompt action of the health offi cers and Dr. Lyman's force removed the danger. "If no other cases are reported, It will be a miracle, and we are hoping for a miracle," said Dr. Lyman yes terday afternoon. . f. Up to date more than one thou sand students and employees of the university have been vaccinated on the downtown campus, and over one hundred have received the innocula- tion at the College of Agriculture.

TUESDAY. FEBRUARY 24, 1925. Twenty-Five States Acknowledge Reception of Charter Day Program Schenectady and Other Alum ni Clubs Listen In From Distant States. Telegrams from twenty-five states acknowledge the reception of the Charter Day program broadcast over Hastings Station KFKX from the University of Nebraska February 16, according to Harold Holts, alumni secretary. Letters also are pouring into the office rapidly. "Of the three years in which the Charter Day exercises have been broadcast this is undoubtedly the most successful," commented Mr. Holts. He attributed its success in part to the fact that broadcasting took place from a room without echo, whereas the acoustics in art hall and the electrical engineering laboratory, from which respectively the previous two years' programs had been sent, were less favorable. Following is the list of states and the number of telegrams received from each: DELT SPRINTERS WIN RELAY RACE Alpha Tau Omega and Sigma Phi Epsilon Finish Second and Third.

NEW DEPARTMENTS PREPARE FOR WORK Sociology and Political Science Diviaions Will Be Separ ate Next Year. Although the actual split in the department of sociology and political Bcience does not take place until Sep tember 1, both new divisions are pre paring for the work" next semester, The new departments, authorized by the Board of Regents at the last meeting, after a petition had been given to Chancellor Avery by the faculty, are to be known as the de partment of sociology and the de partment of political science. Mrs. Hattie Plum Williams, now chairman of both departments will preside over the first No chairman has been named as yet to head the political sci ence division. Both subjects are social sciences, but they are not closely related. They became united when Dr. George E. Howard came to Nebraska from Le land Stanford, and create! the de I artment as one. They are being divided now be cause the size of each division is so large that it is thought better work can be done with two separate divi sions. The change will make no out ward appearance, as the classes will go on in the same way, and the in structors will remain in the same offices on the first floor of Social Science Building. With the new change, both depart ments will be enabled to extend their scientific research work out into the state with greater ease. The sociology section is now establishing a branch m the College of Medicine Omaha. Dr. Williams, chairman of the department lectures there once a week. Instructors in each department a a . j T"kl now are: sociology uauie nun? Williams, Ph. D.; Hutton Webster, Ph. D.; George E. Howard, Ph. D.; Joyce O. Hertzler, Ph. O.; and Miss Merle Draper, instructor in sociology at Medicine, Omaha. Political Sci ence Leon E. Aylsworth, A. M.; Ralph S. Boots, Ph. D.; and John P. Senning, Ph. D. It is possible that the faculty will be made larger in the future, and when that is done, more classes in both departments will be added to the list now offered.
