ADVERTISING CLDB
IS RECOGNIZED
University Authorities Ap
prove New Organization of
Bizad Students.
The Advertising Club of the Uni
versity of Nebraska which was re
cently organized by a group of stu
dents interested in advertising has
been officially recognized by the
Committee on Student Organizations.
The main purpose of the organi
zation is the study of advertising and
selling problems and the dissemina
tion of information favorable to the
University. Members of the Club
feel that there is a great field for
favorably presenting the University
to the public and for counteracting
lad impressions often thoughtlessly
given.
The Club meets twice month, one
meeting being devoted to Club busi
ness and the other to the discussion
of questions pertaining to advertis
ing and selling. Prominent authori
ties on these subjects speak before
the club at least once a month.
Under the guidance of Prof. A.
G. Hinman, instructor in advertising,
salesmanship, marketing and real
estate, the Ad Club was organized
by Wilbur Swanson, Otto Skold,
Simpson Morton, Tom Varney, and
Marion Woodard. These charter
members met several times and after
electing members perfected the pres
ent organization which is a depart
mental club of the College of Busi
ness Administration.
Membership of the Advertising
Club includes:
President, Msrion Woodard ;
vice president, Otto Skold; secre
tary, Gertrude Barber; treasurer,
EU Goldstein; Irvin Jetter, Tom

Annual Freshman Competition
Among Valley Schools Is
Next Wednesday.
t
The fifth annaul Missouri Valley
Freshman telegraphic meet will be
held at the various Valley institu
tions next Wednesday May 13.
The Husker freshmen enter the
meet as strong contenders for the
cup which will be awarded to the
winners. Similar to the codition of
the Varsity squad, they are strong
in track and rather weak in the
field events. The results in today's
telegraphic dual meet with Drake
will give a good indication of Ne
braska's chance in the meet next
week. The meet today will also de
termine the men who will take part
in the Valley meet

'21 and in '23; while Kansas won
in '22 and Grinnell in '4.

SIG ALPHS IN
SEMI-FINALS
S. A. E. Wins Third Round

the Third Round:

Sigma Nu vi. Phi Delta Theta.
Alpha Theta Chi vt. Sigma Phi
Eptilon.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon is the first
team to enter the semi-finals of the
annual interfraternity baseball tour
nament, after a victory yesterday
over Delta Sigma Delta, 8 to 1.
The Sig Alphs won their way to
the semi-finals bracket by outclass'
ing their opponents in every depart
ment of the diamond sport. Schram
pitched an almost air-tight game for
the winners, letting thorn down with
a single run,- scored in the second
inning, while his mates were piling
up a total of eight tallies.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon led all the
way, jumping into the lead in the
first inning with a brace of count
ers. One more came in the third inn
ing and three in the fourth to com
plete the scoring for the game. Brau
er started on the mound for Delta
Sigma Delta and was replaced by
Beckman.
The second round of the tourney
was closed yesterday with the playing
of the Kappa Sig-Sig Ep game. Last
year's winners, Sigma Phi Epsilon,
trampled on the Kappa Sigma team
and beat out a victory to the tune
of 17 to 5.
Stribling was hit hard by the win
ning team, being nicked for eleven
runs in the third inning, while Hoff
man and E. Raun for the Sig Eps
held the Kappa Sig tallies down to
five. The Kappa Sigs counted in the
fourth and fifth innings only.
Three games are left in the third
round. Pi Kappa Alpha meets Pi
Kappa Phi Monday afternoon at the
State Hospital grounds, according to
the schedule, and Sigma Nu and Phi
Delta Theta mix today. The Alpha
Theta Chi-Sigma Phi Epsilon contest
will probably not be played until
next week, in order to give the Sig
Eps a rest.
The last contest in the third brack
et should be a thriller. Kerr has
been attracting attention among the
Greeks by his pitching. He shut out
his opponents in the first and in the
second round, fanning twelve men on
each occasion. The Sig Eps are rat
ed high due to their victory over the
Kap))a Sigs.

STUDENT COUNCIL
ELECTS OFFICERS
Leo Black to Be President; Re
tiring President Addresses
New Members.
Leo Black, '26, Grand Island, was
elected president of the new Student
Council at a meeting held yesterday.
He was one of the four members
elected to be carried through from
the last year's council. He i.s a mem
ber of Kappa Sigma and played on
the Varsity basket-ball team this
year.
The other members who were elect
ed to office were: Millicent Ginn,
'26, Nebraska City, vice-president;
Helen Simpson, '27, Casper, Wyo.,
secretary.
The meeting was called to order by
the retiring president, Emmet V.
Maun, who told the members of the
council their duties as representa
tives of the student body. He said
that the purpose of the organization
was to relate all activities outside of
the curricula to one another, and to
the University as a whole; to act as
a court of investigation and make
recommendations in such cases of
minor discipline as might be referred
to it by the executive dean and the
dean of women. The council is also
in charge of all class elections.
The retiring president of the coun
cil especially stressed the work that
the new council might do on the single-tax
plan, whereby University stu
dents would no longer be bothered by
divers solicitors. The question of
student honoraries was also suggest-'
ed ss a possible subject for next
year's work.

TENNIS TOURNEY
PLANNED BY AGS
Thirty Students and Twenty
four Faculty Members Sign
Up for Net Tournament.
More than thirty students and
twenty-four members of the faculty
at the College of Agriculture have
entered a tennis tournament which
will begin today. The first round
games will all be held this week and
the second round will be played off
during the first part of next week.
The tournament is sponsored by the
Ag College faculty athletic associa
tion and is he second torunament
of this kind that has been held this
year.
The championship of each class
will be played off first and tho win
ners of the classes will play for the
championship. The games in the
doubles tournament will probably
begin next week. Much more inter
est is being shownin this tourna
ment than in one which was held last
fall, according to D. B. Whelan, who
has charge of the tournament.
The faculty athletic association
plans to have a more extended ath
letic program for students in the Col
lege of Agriculture next year. Sev
eral physical education courses will
probably be offered and the college
will have football, basketball, base
ball, and track teams under the su
pervision of competent coaches. Be
cause of the distance between the Ag
campus and the city campus, it is
almost impossible for the freshmen
and the sophomores in the college
to go out for athletic teams at the
city campus. The athletic program,
as planned, will enable Ag students
to participate in athletics and to get
credit for their physical education
work.

The Russian revolution, according
to Mr. Mozer, was a deep reforma

tions and while it was against the
old Russian government it was also
a protest against world crime. Rus
sia had been exploited by Europe
for many centuries but the World
War gave tha revolution an oppor

Mr. Mozer predicted, the old govern
