CORNHUSKER WILL GO ON SALE MONDAY pUtributed from South-Weat Corner of Administration Building STUDENT LIFE SECTION ToB Varney Report Falsity of Rumor That Tint Part It Omitted The 1926 Cornhusker will be plac ed on sale in the south-west corner cf the Administration Building Mon day morning. The student life sec tion has been approved and will con tain nearly every bit of original wpj', announced Tom Varney, Busi ness Manager, when notified of the numerous rumors on the campus that most of the section had been cen sored. Campus events of the year have supplied the student life section with an unusually large amount of ccpy. To attempt to hint about the special features of the section or even to describe its general characteristics would detract from the- numerous pleasant surprises afforded the read er when the book is released next Monday. Objection Removed In such a section there are nearly always certain features which do not meet the approval of the censor. Such objections had been removed and the section was printed and ready to be sent to the binders. The first notice of any disapproval was voiced when complaint was made at that time concerning certain stories and pictures or sorority escapades. The section was recalled and the articles in question were again sub mitted for censorship. Since the omission of the entire feature would necessitate much expense in re printing the section, only two arti cles were censored. The other stor-j ies and pictures were allowed to re main in the book. I Cornhusker of 1921 The subject of forbidden articles,1 censorship, and student opinion re-j calls memories of the Cornhusker of 1921 and the national publicity and student disapproval resulting from; the vivid Student Life section of that time. Students were bitter in their denouncement of the section and hundreds tossed their books in the huge bonfire built on the drill field. j Older alumni tell of the time when , one of the early issues of the Corn husker was condemned because of certain antics of football players which were made public. There will be no cause for disapproval among the student body when the 1926 Cornhusker is placed on sale.

Grey and Striped Ground Squirrels Used by Zoologists for Research There are many interesting experi- pretty little animal, but is not as ments and experiences in Bessey HalL Mr. Otis of the department of zoology, has several gro'und squirrels which he is using as part of his re search work. There are two kinds, the grey ground squirrel and the thirteen striped ground squirrel. The striped one is commonest around here. It is a friendly little animal and is easDy tamed for a pet. They are not nearly as injurious as the average person thinks, although in the springtime they eat a good deal of planted grain. Their burrowing habit is also harmful. However, they eat lots of injurious bugs, insects, and worms. Grasshoppers are es pecially liked by them. Mr. Otis is inclined to think that their bug -fating tendencies offset the injury done ty their burrows and grain eatrng. It is very probable that about one third of their diet is meat. They are fed meat three or four times a week and Mr. Otis is trying to obtain exact recordr of their daily consump tion and how much of each type of food they eat. The grey ground Squirrel is a very THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, HALF-MILE v Here is Coach Schulte and his world record holding half-mile relay team. They are ready for the Valley meet in which they hope to establish a new record, and will have a chance to aim at their own world's record established this spring at the Kansas Relays. From left to right they are: Wyatt, Hein, Locke, Davenport, Dailey, and Coach Schulte. Wyatt will probably replace Hein if the latter is kept out of this last meet by the leg sprain which has been bothering him since the Drake Relays.

It is a little smaller than the tree squirrel but a great deal larger than the striped ground squirrel. A stuffed cougar is in one of the rooms. This cougar was shot by a young boy many years ago and forms an interesting part of Nebraska his tory. The jaw of a pet bull snake was also observed. It is constructed in an odd manner. The tipper jaws serve as sort of props to hold the mouth open. A gila monster, whose native habi tat is in the southwest, was out of its c - ind looked evilly at us from its be- j. black eyes.

Dr. Wolcott was bitten by one a few years ago. This one hri been in the laboratory three or four years. WORLD RECORD TEAM t, t. . ir GET INDIAN MANUSCRIPT A. L. Green Gives Paper To State Historical Society Mr. A. L. Green, of Beatrice, has recently furnished the State Histori cal Society with a series of interest ing manuscripts which he has written relating to the customs, history, lan guage, and religion of the Otoe In dians. Mr. Green, who is now past eighty years of age, was an Indian agent for this tribe from 1869 to 1875. The tribe was then located in the southern half of Gage county then known as the Otoe Reserve; subsequently this reservation was sold and the Otoes removed to Ok lahoma. Mr. Green's long residence with the Otoe Indians make him one of the best authorities in the country on the subject of this once famous In dian tribe.

Dance Drama, Is Part of Alumni Round-up The "Cycle of the Hourse," to be 1 presented by the Women's Athletic Association in the dance drama May' 26, has an unusual theme. This, year's presentation promises to be , the best production given to the pub- i lie by this organization. The wo-j men have been devoting much time ' to the drama, and with the assists ance of Dorothy Simpson, instructor in the Department of Physical Edu cation, and Leora Chapman, Wader the darma has progressed with suc cess. The theme of the "Cycle of the Hours" reads as taken from E. E. Tucker. "At the call of dawn the early morning hours come forth to begin the day. The clarion calls to the chase echoes in the hills, as the Huntresses dash through the morn ing coolness of tie forest. Then come the Gleaners, who wind their way light-heartedly to the distant fields. Apollo approaches, flood ing the word with his brilliance, and drives before him the hours of the day. Wine carriers hasten to the toilers in the field, that they may re fresh them during the noon-tide rest. Nearby a shepherd lad, reclining in the purple shade, entreats a pretty Shepherdness to play with him. Mel low afternoon finds the gleaners and Examination Schedule Announced This Issue The examination schedule for the second semester has been an nounced and is the same as form erly, the reversed schedule of the morning classes which was used lost year, being discarded. The examinations begin in full force on Tuesday morning with the eight o'clock and run until Friday. Five o'clock examinations are be ing given on Saturday and Mon day. The schedule is being reprinted in today's issue of The Daily Ne braskan on pago 3.

Night brings peace to the word, and dark ness. " 'Tis thus, the ever-turning cycle of the hours, which grings waking, toil, and sweet repose, fulfill the promise of each new-born, day." In the creative dance classes, and practices which the organization has been holding for the past two months women have been working oh phases of this theme, and dancing to suit the music. The dances to be used are those which have been suggested by this work. The drama is to be presented on the evening of May 26, at 8:15 o' clock, on the campus north of the Administration Building. The pub-; lie is invited. Tickets may be pur chased from Ross P. Curtice Co., or1 any W. A. A- member for fi' cents.

PRICE 5 CENTS HUSKERS FACE REAL FOES FOR VALLEY HONORS Missouri Seems Most Feared By Coach Schulte's Track Squad NINE SCHOOLS ENTERED Iowa State Team Bases Hopes On Conger, Crack Middle Distance Runner Coach . fe's 1926 track and field 84UUU wa have a chance to walk away with the Missouri Valley title when the nine schools clash in the nineteenth annual meet at the Nebraska Memorial Stadium Friday and Saturday afternoons. Missouri is doped as the team most likely to turn the Scarlet back in its attempt to regain valley hon ors on the track and field. But a re port from Iowa State indicates that school to have an idea that the points may be well enough split that they can end the day with the title safely in their grasp. K. U. and Kaggies Strong Then Kansas University and Kan sas Aggies, although defeated by both Nebraska and Missouri, are bringing strong squads down, and in the melee of competition that is bound to result Friday and Saturday, anyone might emerge victorious. Iowa State is basing much of her claim on being placed among the leaders on the stellar performance all season of Raymond Conger, whirl wind middle distanct runner. He is entered in everything from the 220 up through the 2-mile and also in both relays. Furthermore, the Iowans are keeping it quiet just what races he intends to run. Crawford on List But Conger isn't all that Iowa has. Captain Fred Crawford, second in the valley meet last year in the half- mile, figures on making things in teresting for Conger if he runs and for such other stars as Kim port, Kansas Aggies, Roberts and Lewis, Nebraska, and Van Laningham, Drake. Another half-miler - who hasn't been mentioned much is Will man of Washington. He is expect ing to hit the half in around 1:57 also. With this group entered, it will probably take faster than a 2 minute half to even place. Drake Backs New Man Drake is backing a new man, Caul lum, to make a good showing against the Valley's best in the 440. Caul lum was on the Iowa State relay team which showed to advantage in its victories in the Illinois indoor re lays this year and Coach Willaman has expressed confidence that he can give Granteilo of Missouri, Rooney of Kansas, Wyatt of Nebraska, and the others a good race. Iowa High Jumper Iowa State, in Payton, hopes to farnish a javelin thrower who can furnish Cox, Oklahoma's outstand ing sur and Missouri Valley record holder, soine real competition. Iowa State is laying claim to have the least poor of the many high jumpers that infest the Valley this year in Kingery, winner of the high jump in the Grinnell-Iowa State dual meet last week. Kingery is also a good man with the discus. And last but not least, in Iowa State's statements of what they ex pect to do and how they expect to puth the leaders, must be mentioned the fact that they still have Cwens for the pole-vault. He won the Mis souri Valley indoor meet at Ames early this spring. Drake's chances should also not be underestimated. With a fair sprint er, two crack hurdlers, some good jumpers, and a scattering of other men, they will be out to get a good ly measure of points. ALD11NAE BANQUET OF W.A.A.
