Thousands Taken Care
Of In Coliseum During
Registration Period
The practical value of the new
coliseum for other than athletic pur
poses was ahown during the regis
tration period, in the opinion or vni
versity officials. For the first time
in years it was possible for students
to complete registration witnout
runnincr from one buildinz to an
other.
The structure afforded room for
carrying out all the registration pro
cesses, from certification of high
school credits at one end, to pay
ment of fees at the other.
The scholastic standing of frater
nities and sororities for the first ana
second semesters of last year, an
nounced yesterday by the office of
the executive dean, shows an im
provement by some organisations,
mtiA a decided decrease by others.
Alpha Chi Sigma fraternity and
Sigma Delta Tau sorority were at
th head of the list both semesters.
The grand averages show that
fraternity men and sorority women
stood higher as a whoH than non
members. In previous years the re
vr haa been true.
innfker nrecedent overcome this
vear. was in the matter of second and
first semester general standings. The
Vcond semester last year did not
trail below the first, as has gener
ally been the case. The fraternities
jumped up over twenty points in the
second semester.
Some abrupt changes in relative
standings were found in Phi Kappa
Tsi's jump from Twenty-third to
ninth; Phi Delta Theta from twenty
ninth to sixth; Zeta Beta Tau, from
twenty-fourth to third; Tau Kappa
Ensilon from twentieth to eighth;
Alpha Gamma Rho climbed from
third to second.
Delta Gamma went up from thir
teenth to third among sororities;
Alpha Omicron Pi from fifteenth to
eighth; and Alpha Xi Delta from six
teenth to ninth. Delta Zeta held sec
ond place for both aemesters.
The literary societies were again
high, but not as high as the sororityJ
women. A slight drop for the secona
.semester was shown by the societies.

The first Varsity party of the
year will be held Saturday night,
September 25, in the Coliseum. Ac
cording to Robert Hoagland, general
chairman, a capacity attendance of
fifteen hundred couples is Cipected
for this initial dance and plans are
being made to make this a fitting
opening for the social season.
Beck's twelve-piece bund will fur
nish the music and will play from
a platform built just in fi-ont of the
stage. A wall of copper wires will
be at the stage opening, in back of
the orchestra, to throw the music out
over the entire floor. j
Plans for decorations are in the
hands of a commercial . artist, who
is also planning permanent decora
tions for all future functions John
K. Selleck, student activities chair
man, said Friday that -besides per
manent fixtures for the main audi
torium, furnishings will be put along
the concourse aijnd the floor, in
the sear future. He also stated that
these furnishings will be paid for
by the proceeds from the All-University
parties. For the first dance,
however, folding chairs will be
placed around the concourse and
Missouri Valley penants will be used
as decorations to fit in with the
opening of the Valley season.
Private corners for the chaper
ones will be arranged at each end
of the floor and on either side will
be long refreshment tables. An elab
orate entertainment is being planned
for. the intermission.
Admission for the dances this
year was made seventy-five cents for
couples and seventy-five cents for
stags, after the matter was taken
up with Miss Amanda Heppner, dean
of women and advisor of the party
committee.

$8.50 IS SET AS PRICE
Special Reduction Will Be
Made Only to Students
Selleck Says
Student season tickets for all
University athletic events will be
placed on sale Wednesday afternoon,
September 22, at three o'clock in the
Coliseum, according to John K. Sell
eck, manager of student activities.
No sales campaign will be made on
the campus or downtown as in
former years. The price of the book
will be $8.50.
Organizations are invited to send
one of their members to buy tickets
for the group. Such students are
required to bring a list of those de
siring to buy tickets.
Regular tickets are being used in
the season books instead of the cou
pons of former seasons. Only foot
ball tickets will be placed in the
book. When the football season is
over the book will be exchanged at
the athletic office for one containing
basketball, wrestling and track tick
eth. This special price for students is
a reduction of nearly fifteen dollars
from the regular single admission
prices to the various athletic events
during the year. Single admissions
to football games amount to eleven
dollars. Added to this are nearly
fifteen basketball, wrestling and
track events, each costing one dollar.
"The student book is being sold
at a reduced price for the students
of the University of .Nebraska," Mr.
Selleck remarked, in speaking of the
abuse of the student privilege. The;
athletic department has set aside the
choice seats in the east stand for
the students to provide a cheering
section and to promote the Cornhus
ker spirit. Any student who abuses
his privilege by selling his ticket to
an outsider not only lowers himself
in the estimation of his fellow stu
dents, but works against the best in
terests of the University and the
football team. Any student found do
ing this will have his privilege taken
from him during the remainder of Lis
University work.
