contest with the exception of one
time when the D. U.'s got a 10 to

teams resorted to long shots at
which Grace of the Phi Sigs was
outstanding. The game was rough
and many personal fouls were called.
Cass being rejected from the game
in the last three minutes for per
sonals. Grace of the winners was the only
player on the floor that was able to
locate the hoop with any regularity.
He connected for six field goals and
one free throw for a total of 13
points. Dana, D. U. forward, who
is one of the leading scorers of the
tournament had an off day. He
registered only two field goals and
missed six consecutive gift tosses.
Wostoupal was the leading scorer
for the losers. He registered six
points with two baskets and two
field goals. Cass played a nice
floor game for the losers, while
Nicholson was the outstanding de
tente man for the Phi Sigs.
Wostoupal Scored For Loser
Andrews of the Phi Sigs drew first
blood in the game with a long shot
from the center of the court. Wos
toupal scored on a free throw and
Grace batted the ball through the
hoop on a -follow-in shot. Wostou
pal made good on his second free
throw and Grace brought the Phi
Sig total to six with a long shot
Dana end the scoring of the first
period with a short side shot. The
half ended 6 to 4 for the Phi Sigma
Kappa five.
Dana tied the count at the begin
ning of the second half with a nice
side shot.- Grace followed j?ue in
to put his team into the lead again.
Wostoupal brought the score to a tie
at eight when he went under the
basket for a goal. Grace shot a free
throw and Wostoupal's second basket
gave the D. U.'s the lead for the
first time during the game.
King was fouled and made good
one of his two free throws to tie
the score. Grace got a basket from
beneath the hoop and a moment later
dribbled the entire length of the
floor for a basket. He brought the
Phi Sig total to sixteen by getting
his third basket in as many minutes.
King dropped in one from the cen
ter of the court and the game ended
before the ball could again be put
in play.

FINISH FIELD
HOUSE RAMPS
New Auditorium Will Be Used
For High School Basket
ball Tournament
COMPLETE IT IN JUNE
Nebraska's handsome new Field
House will be ready for occupancy in
a week and will be completed by the
middle of June according to W. J.
assenmacher, the contractor. The
work would be completed two months
earlier were it not for the fact that
the laying of a permanent floor will
be delayed by the use of the build
ing during the Rotariau Convention
to be held in Lincoln beginning
April 22, and for Commencement
early in June. The huge structure,
with a seating capacity of 11,000,
will be used, with its present tempor
ary floor, during the state high
school basketball tournament, March
11 to 14.
The last ramp was completed late
last night. The balcony will be en
tirely finished and ready for use by
the time of the tournament, with the
exception of the south end balcony
which will be too new to use at that
time. At the extreme no.-th end of
the building is a room 116'x50'
known as the stage portion.
The gymnasium and swimming
pool are located immediately below
this area. Shower rooms, rest rooms,
dressing rooms and lockers are all
found in the basement; also, cloak
rooms with seven checking counters.
Student offices are located on the
main floor to both right and left of
the main entrance and lobby. A
trophy room will occupy the space
above the lobby on the mezzanine
floor, and there will be three offices
to the right and three to the left of
this room.
The permanent heating apparatus
is not yet installed. Accordingly,
heat is provided, at present, by two
Aerofin steam heaters installed one
on either side of the inner main en
trance to playing floor.

In Suit
The track team was taking it easy
again Tuesday resting up from the
Illinois relays but work is in order
for the men Thursday when try outs
for the Missouri Valley indoor meet
are to be held. Coach :hulte is
bent on winning the title again this
year and i3 grooming the men with
particular pains.
Weir, after a week's absence from
the track, is again in suit and Will be
a contender in the hurdea. So far
this year, he has not been able to
accompany the team but will be in
shape for the Valley meet. Very
little comparison between Nebraska
and the other valley schools can be
made but competition will be plenty

contestants.

Y.H.G.A. WORK
DEPENDS UPON
FINANCE DRIVE
Need $1000 to Carry on Activi
ties; Campaign Opens
With A Dinner
WILL NOT TAKE PLEDGES
Canvat Entire Student Body in One
Evening to Raise Money to
Make Up Deficit
"Whether or not the University
Y. M. C. A. can continue its work
unhampered by debt, depends on the
success of this finance campaign,"
declared General Secretary Arthur
Jorgensen yesterday in speaking of
the drive Thursday evening in which
two hundred student workers expect
to raise more than one thousand
dollars.
If the campaign fails, it is point

ENGBERG'S STATEMENT
To the Men of the University:
Last autumn the University Y,
M. C. A. presented its financial
needs to the men of the Univer
sity, but for some reason only
about one-half of the sum needed
was subscribed. At this time an
other effort will be made by the
students interested in the work to
secure the remainder of the funds
so that the year may be closed
without debt.
The amount needed for this
purpose is somewhat over a thous
and dollars. The alumni through
out the country and the citizens
of Lincoln, through the Lincoln
Community Chest, have done more
than was originally expected oi
them, and it is to be hoped that
the students will do at least their
full share of the work, especially
in view of all that the Y. M. C.
A. does for them.
This work is so quietly and un
ostentatiously done that many are
not aware of it until they stop to
think of the tremendous help the
"Y" gives in so many ways, such
as helping new students find
rooms, securing work for the
needy whereby they are able to
stay in school, supplying the hand
book that is distributed to all the
Freshmen, conducting the open
forum for discussion of civic and
religious problems, and not least
of all, the friendly assistance that
is so frequently and so constantly
given to the students who do not
have the fraternal or other person
al relations in Lincoln.
The University would be lost
without such an agency as the Y.
M. C. A., and therefore a student
can make no better investment
than by subscribing to this, -vork,
even though it may mean
up a social pleasure or two
Iving
I do not believe in urging others
to do what I myself will not do,
and so, although I have already
given freely, I will again subscribe
to this fund, if the student body
will come to the rescue and raise
the amount needed.
Very Sincerely yours, ,
CARL C. ENGBERG,
Executive Dean.
ed into debt, and consequently its
activities the rest of this year and
next year will have to be greatly
curtailed and many projects dropped.
The drive will open with a dinner
at the Grand hotel at 6 o'clock
Thursday evening. Judd Davis, fin
ance chairman, and Mr. Jorgensen
will each speak for a few minutes,
explaining the way in which the
drive is to be carried out. Prof. O.
R. Martin, chairman of the advisory
board of the 'Y,' will also make a
short address, as will Ed Weir.
Each of the two hundred workers
will be given a list of about ten men
living near him to see. It is expected
that the entire University commun-

Summer School At Trinity College,
Dublin, Is Arranged For Americans
A summer school for American
students, teachers, and visitors, simi
lar to those held annually at Ameri
can universities, will be held at Trin
ity College, Dublin, in 1920, from
July 15 to August 26. By this un
precedented arrangement a course of
study has been planned to cover thir
ty hours, and provisions has been
made for final examinations and cer
tificates to bo given to those com
pleting the course and passing the
examinations.
I Twelve courr.es of lectures, in ac
cordance with the following schedule
will be offered:
Group 1. Political Economy and
Social Science; Political Economy;

FOR BEST SKITS
A. W. S. Board Will Give $15
And $10 For Winning
Stunts in Co-Ed Follies
HOLD AFFAIR MARCH 26
The A. W. S. board, which is pro
moting and sponsoring the Co-Ed
Follies the night of March 26 in
the Armory, announces a first prize
of fifteen dollars for the best skit
presented that night and a second
prize of ten dollars.
Although this is the first year that
the Co-Ed Follies have been attempt
ed at Nebraska, if everyone will co
operate, there is no reason why they
should not prove as successful here
as at other universities.
Any organization or any group of
girls may enter a skit. They should
not be too long, and may be any type
that the girls playing it desire. They
must be prepared soon, for the last
day to hand them in-is March 8. They
may be left at the A. W.S. office,
on the second floor of Ellen Smith
Hall, or may be given directly to a
member of the A. W. S. board. The
best ten will then be selected for the
performance and the girls will be
notified.
Similar student productions have
been held at many other state uni
versities, and have become one of'
the most entertaining evenings of the l
year. If this year's performance j
is as successful as the board hopes'
it will be, the following year may
see the production taken down town i
to the Orpheum. Plays or skits by
students ahvayj appeal to down
town audiences, and Nebraska has;
as much talent along this line a3 any'
other school.
There will be no professionals en
tering this contest so all persons :
should feci free to put in their skit.
Besides the enjoyment which will
come from this entertainment, not to
mention the two prizes, the board j
hopes to create a spirit of co-opera- i
tion among the class organizations.
sororities, inter-sorority groups, lit- j
crary societies, or any group of girls
who are interested. j
The board urges all the individual
groups to hand in the skits to the j
Associated Women Students' office
in order that the Co-Ed Follies may
appear on the campus and be entire-1
Iy successful.

a thing which you have undertaken,"
paid Miss Marklcy, as she explained
that the selection of the course that
a girl should take at college is not
as much of a Chinese puzzle as it

high schools of today offer oppor
tunities for girls to test their possi
bilities. "Giiis do not make any
more mistakes than men do in their
selection of courses," fhe eaid.
Mis Marklcy has been here sev

One of the more important things
that they are thinking about is cam

mates created, do certain things at
universities and colleges, grow and
flourish and other things find no
nourishment and die.
"Then students are going out and
thinking about the 'questions that
are tearing the world into antagon

their own experience." In closing
Miss Markley stated that she real

doing serious thinking and that in
the future they would do more.
Miss Markley spent from two to
