should the performers feel as much

ARRANGEMENTS BEING
MADE BY ALPHA ZETAS
University students, faculty mem
bers and the public of Lincoln will
give a banquet Thursday evening in
honor of Dean E. A. Burnett of the
Agricultural College, who has served
this University more than twenty
five years.
"' Arrangements for the banquet are
being made by Alpha Zeta, honorary
agricultural fraternity, with other
student and faculty groups. It is ex
pected that five hundred will bo pres
ent at the banquet which is to be
held in the hall of the Engineering
building on the agricultural campus.
Samuel R, McKclvie will be toast
master and speakers will be: Prof.
W. W. Burr, Chancellor Samuel Av
ery, Frank Thompson, E-Regent E.
P. Brown, Richard Parsons, and
Mary Bailey.
Dean Burnett received his first
degree from the Michigan Agricul
tural College, and came to Nebraska
in 1899 as instructor in animal hus
bandry. He was made director of
the Experiment Station in 1903 and
dean of the college in 1909, which
position he has occupied since then.
The banquet this year is taking the
place of the annual spring frolic and
is to get Lincoln people better ac
quainted with Dean Burnett. Tick
ets may bo secured from students Of
the college or from the finance office
on the Ag campus.
A swimming fraternity ,has been
installed at K. S. A. C. Only, .mem

from behind the curtains to pull the

silence, and the music go on.
The University broadcasting sta
tion uses a magnetic type of micro
phone, which runs into six stages of
amplification. When the radio tele
phone transmitting set is to be put
into operation, so high is the volt
age of electricity that the button
which releases it is of unusual length
to prevent shock to the operator. The
modulator tube, the out put of the
master oscillator, produces the main
radio waves. Three large, glowing.
red-hot tubes, called power amplifi
ers, amplify the waves produced by
the oscillator. A power of 600
watts is fed to the antennae and the
counterpoise system, which sends
forth the sounds through the air,
with the velocity of light
A number of meters are necessary
for observation to insure the effl
clent action of the transmitter. A
wave meter, set to the WFAV wave
length, prevent the station from
transgressing upon other wave
lengths. A wave meter, set to the

PLAN ADDITION
TO NEBRASKAN
Literary Section Will Be Issued
Once a Month for Re
mainder of Year.
WANT POEMS, ESSAYS

The first .of three literary supple
ments to The Daily Nebraskan will
be issued about April IB. It is plan
ned to make this section a permanent
institution, and tho editors of the
publication ask for contributions
from students.
The addition is to be a four-page,
magazine-size supplement, and will
be edited by the editor and manag
ing editor of The Nebraskan. Only
three issues will bo published this
year, but it will be published next
year if it proves a success. The other

This is the first tune that such a
venture has been made by The Ne

tions in the form of essays, poems,
and sketches, turned in at the office
or mailed to reach the editor before
Friday noon, April 10. All mana
scripts must be typewritten, double-
spaced on one side of regular manu
script paper. v
"The supplement will not be a
vaWpIo for the views of any one
group," declares one of the editors.
"Tho object is to make it interesting
to read, and to this end", any point
e inrrr mltAfYio, ninnrtftT nr lin-
10Q-Lrthbd jj be printed if it is well
expressed. There is no limit as to
length, although in view of the lim
ited size of the paper, it is possibly
best to mako essays as concise as

merits in comparison with the rest
of the material submitted."
