some other form of entertainment.
Wendell Berge is the toastmaster,

W. A. Seavey, of the Law College

also be two seniors speak. The toasts
will be short so the banquet will be

Governor Adam McMullen and the
administrative officials, and heads of
the departments will be guests of
honor. They are: Chancellor S.

Irma Appleby.
The graduating class is having a
banquet this year instead of the tra
ditional pielik because the size of
the class made It nearly impossible
to provide transportation for every
body. It is thought that the banquet
will leave a more lasting impression
of the University, its aims, its tra
ditions, and its administration.
Innocents Make Statement
"The Innocent tapping will take
place Thursday morning immediately
following the May Queen ceremony,
instead of in the afternoon, in order
to accommodate three of our men,
Gleason, Critea, and Buffett, who
must leave shortly after noon for the
track meet at Norman, Oklahoma.
"It is fitting that a word be said
relative to the requirements for
membership in the Innocents Society.
Each man considered must be within
a year of graduation. Nobody is con
sidered if there is any probability
that he will not get his degree in the
year following. The student must
have attended the University of Ne
braska during his sophomore and
and junior years.
"In selection of candidates chief
consideration is given to qualities of
character, leadership on the campus,
participation in student activities,
scholarship, and ability and willing
ness to work with other men. The
Innocents do not aim necessarily to
choose the most popular men but
rather to select those who will be
able to render in their senior year
the most valuable service to the University.
"Although the members of the In
nocents aim all year to study and
observe the outstanding men of the
junior class with a view to their
qualifications for Innocents mem
bership, the electing is done by two
ballots cast in one continuous meet
ing shortly before Ivy Day. On the
first ballot the list of candidates is
reduced to thirty and on the second
ballot to thirteen. The ballots are
cast under a system of preferential
voting whereby each man voting
ranks the candidates in the order of
his choice and then in the tabulation
the total number of choices of each
candidate is divided by the total
number of votes he receives. This
system of voting, therefore, gives
the weighted judgment of the group
as a whole upon the candidates.
"It is probably understood that
the President, Vice President, Secre
tary, Treasurer, and Sergeant at
Arms are tapped in the above-named
order. The remaining eight men
are not tapped necessarily in the or
der which they were chosen.
"The Innocents of this year have
made an honest effort to select for
their successors the thirteen most
outstanding men from next year's
senior class."

The registration for the first term
of the 1925 summer session will be
held on Monday, June 8, in Memorial
Hall. Those students desiring to reg
ister earlier may do so on Friday and
Saturday, June 6 and 6, at the
Teachers College building. Classes
will begin Tuesday morning, June 9.
Six hours is the maximum amount of
work that can be carried each term.
There are two terms, each lasting
six weeks.
Registration for the second term
will be held Tuesday and Wednesday,
July 14 and 15 .and the second term
classes begin Tuesday morning, July

The summer session of 1924 had
a total enrollment of 8,084 students.
The first term had the largest en
rollment with 2,745 students and the
second term had 1,862. This year a
larger attendance is expected.
The summer session is planned to
offer untfsual opportunities to the
teachers of the state as well as to
serve the needs of the regular stu
dents who desire to shorten their
collegiate course. The g-Mt increnfe
in attendance in recent years has
made it necessary to add new depart

courses in other departments already
represented.

students of the institution.
"The Cornhusker of Service" is
stressed throughout the publication.
The first section contains the history
of past, present and future. The
growth of the University is told in
six parts: I. The Beginning, 1869-
1888; II. A Seat of Learning, 1888-
1905; ITT. The Transition , 1905
1914; TV. Rapid Expansion, 1914
1919; V. A Greater University, 1919-
1925; VI. L'Avenir, from the present
into the future.
Seventy-eight of Nebraska' dis-
stinguihed alumni have their pictures
and biographies in the administration
section. A feature of the third sec
tion, "Classes," is the small scenes
of Nebraska under the panel of each
page. A picture and a greeting from
the Honorable Adam McMullen, Gov
ernor of Nebraska, is included.
"Scarlet and Cream Days," the
fourth section, is composed of a pic
torial division entitled "Campus
Events," of various activities, publi
cations, fraternities, sororites, clubs,
societies and other organizations.
The athletic section contains many
interesting pictures. Action pictures
of the leading Husker athletes add
to the attractiveness of the section.
Two pages are given to pictures and
stories of Captain Ed Weir, All-
American tackle, with statements
from Frank Birchi noted football
referee, and Walter Eckersall, sports
writer of the Chicago Tribune.
The military section contains two
unusual statements to the Cornhus
ker military training; one is from
John W. WTeeks, Secretary of War,
and the other is from Major-General
Hinz, Chief of Staff.
The student life section is called
the "Mirrors of Nebraska" and con
tains sarcasms and jokes on various
students.
The publication of the book was
under the supervision of Wendell
Berge, editor-in-chief. Many Stu
dents contributed material and help
ed edit the publication.
At a special convocational at 11
o'clock Tuesday morning the local
chapter of Delta Sigma Pi, interna
tional honorary business fraternity,
made its annual presentation of the
society's scholarship key. This key
is one that is awarded annually to
that male student in the college of
Business Administration who, upon
trraduation, ranks highest in scholar
chin fT the entire course. Dr.
Virtue in conjunction with Dean Le-
Rossignol made the presentation to
Harry Bernard Cohen who had the
highest average during four years.

Prof. W. L. DeBaufre, chairman
qf the department of mechanical en

have returned from their trip to
Milwaukee to attend the spring meet

Analysis of Power Plant Per

the paper which Professor DeBaufre
read before Thursday's Bession. The
paper, which was published in the A.

the details of a step-by-step method
of analyzing power-plant perform
ance that shows the losses of avail
able energy occurring in each stage
of the process.

Professor Luebs stopped at Chi
cago to visit the Fire Underwriters'
laboratories. Here he studied meth
ods of testing safety devices on oil
burners, using this data for the test
book which be expects to prepare in
the summer.
A visit to the power show, illus
trating various types of equpiment,
was made by Professor DeBaufre.
He inspected the Allis-Chalmers hy
draulic apparatus and turbine-testing
equipment He also went to the

where he saw the nitrogen expan
sion engine, for helium work, and
the compresses for the purification
