GLEE CLDB TRYOUT

For New Men
Tryouts for membership in the
University of Nebraska Mens' Glee
Club will be held next Wednesday,
according to Herman G. Decker, di
rector of the Club and chief judge
of tryouts. The tryouts will be held
continuously from 3:00 to 6:30 and
from 7:00 to 8:00 p. m. in Room 301
of the Library building. ,
Constitutional provision for mem
bership in the club indicates that
any properly registered student in
any college of the University may be
come a member. As only fifteen old
members have reported this year and
as the Club maintains a membership
of between forty and forty-five there
is an excellent opportunity for new
men.
The Glee Club takes a ten to
twelve-day trip in the spring during
which time they visit Nebraska towns
as representatives of the University
ajid the School of Fine Arts. The
itinerary for this year has not as yet
been arranged, according to Kenneth
W. Cook, business manager, but will
isclude several of the largest Ne
braska towns. The Club will also ap
pear this year with the University
chorus in 'ts performance of Faust,
which wih be given some time in

ELIMINATE YEAR
OF INTERNSHIPS
Requirements of Year as In
terne Removed by Board
Of Regents Friday
The requirement of a year of In
ternship for the degree of Doctor of
Medicine was eliminated at the meet
ing of the Board of Regents Friday,
at the recommendation of the Col
lege of Medicine faculty. The reason
for such a move is explained in the
following statement issued by the
Board of Regents:
"Though the University approves
of the interne as a qualification for
licensing, it was found impractical to
insist upon it in view of the fact
that many of the most desirable in
ternships are beyond the jurisdiction
of the State and the state licensing
law does not require internships. The
faculty of the College of Medicine
has already expressed itself as favor
ing a change in the state licensing
law requiring one year of hospital
work (under supervision) before li
cense is granted."
A revision of the rules for admit
ting patients to the University Hos
pital, prepared by Dean Keegnn, was
received by the Board and referred
to the Committee on Medical Edu
cation. Mr. Wilbur C. Peterson, formerly
with the Alumni office, was given a
position as general editor ot' campus
publications. This is not to super
cede any faculty or student board,
but he is to cooperate with all of
them in improving the quality and
reducing the cost of such material
as comes from the University press.
Mr. Peterson has already been study
ing the subject of catalogs with the
view of making a considerable re
duction in the number of pages
printed in the University bulletins.
The Board also accepted resigna
tions previously announced and new
appointments, announced from time
to time in the press, were contirmea.
The Board met in the Chancellor's
office with all members present and
took lunch at the University Club
with the officers of the Aiurr.ni Asso
ciation who had convened from all
narts of the state. The noon hour was
spent in a purely sochl way. The
Board of Directors and executive
Committee of the Alumni Association
met iointly with the Bourd of ue-
gents and the Chancellor Friday
aftcrnoon and the Board of jnrcciors
concluded further business Saturday
forenoon prior to attending the
Drake game.

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1926.
YEARBOOK SALE
BEGINS MONDAY
Tassels, Silver Serpents, Xi
Delta and Corncobs to
Conduct Campaign
Subscriptions for the 1927 Com
husker will be taken this week, be
ginning Monday morning, by any
member of the Corncobs, Tassels,
Silver Serpents, or Xi Deltas. The
price of the book is $4.50 if ordered
before Friday of this week; after
that the price will be raised to $5.00.
"There will be no time payments
this year," stated Ralph Bergsten,
business manager. "In eliminating
the system of paying half of the
price when the subscription is made
and the other half later in the year
we will do away with a lot of the
expense which the necessary book
keeping incurs, and the funds thus
saved will allow us to run some new
features in the book. In the end the
student gains by getting a more beau
tiful book," he declared. "And too,
the student will have his copy paid
for and does not need to worry about
paying the other half when he gets
his book."
Speaking further about the canr
paign Bergsten said, "We have chos
en what we think are the livest or
ganizations on the campus for the
subscription drive, and from the in
terest already evinced we are sure
that this will be the most spirited
campaign of any held yet this year."
A $75.00 prize will be given the
organization getting the most sub
scriptions. And a $10.00 prize will
be given the man and woman getting
the greatest number of subscriptions.
The prize for the woman getting the
highest number last year, was given
to Helen Aach who got 95.
"I think also that it will be the
most successful," Bergsten contin
ued, "because of the fact that the
organizations themselves are so in
terested and ordinarily there is more
interest in the student body when
the Cornhusker is concerned. And
this interest is justified. This book
is one that any one may be proud to
have on the library table.
"The 1927 yearbook will include
at least five important features which
have never been in a Cornhusker be
fore," declared W. F. Jones, editev.
"These will put us to a greater ex
pense than previous Cornhusker staffs
have had, but we feel assured that
the subscription campaign will be
enough larger than other years to
warrant our going to this expense."
NIGHT CLASSES
TO BEGIN SOON
Courses in Twenty-two Sub
jects Offered ; Heavy
Enrollment Sure
Early registrations and inquiries
received indicate that the night
classes to be offered this year by the
University of Nebraska for the bene
fit of those unable to attend classes
during the day will prove more pop
ular than last year, when more than
five hundred persons took evening
work each semester. For the first
time in evening class history there
will be a Friday evening class to ac
commodate the students who are un
able to attend on the other four eve
nings.
Courses in twenty-two subjects
ore offered this fall. First classes will
meet this week. Most of the courses
will meet one evening each week at
seven-thirty, there being a number of
classes each evening except Satur-
rlnv. Rnsidonce credit is given for all
j
courses, but many of them may be
carried without credit.
Demands of a wide variety of peo
ple have been filled by night classes
in past years. The practical needs of
the businessman and the school
teacher have been met, as well as
hhnse of persons working toward col
lege degrees. Nearly all of the cour-
lege degree. Nearly all of the cours
p oflVired las tyear will be repeated
this year because of the popular de
mand for them. Business English and
American History have drawn un
usually large numbers in the past.
Amonc the new courses which are
attracting attention is one in business
forecasting. A study is to be made ot
the various system? of forecasting

PLAYERS DRIVE
STARTS MONDAY
Sale of Season Tickets for
University Players
This Week
University Player's season tickets
will be placed on sale on the campus,
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
These dates have been set aside for
the students sale of coupons entit
ling purchasers to view seven per
formances of the University Players
productions this winter. An exclusive
student matinee will be given Friday
afternoon beginning at 3 o'clock at
an extremely low rate.
Booths . will be placed in Social
Sciences hall, Library, the Temple
and at the entrance to U. Hall. The
tickets sold will be exchangeable for

building. Students purchasing tickets
are urged to get their reserved seats
as soon as possible. The season ticket
insures the holder of a good seat
for any performance and will save
last minute confusion.
The price of the student matinee
coupon is $2.75. Season tickets may
be purchased for Thursday, Friday
or Saturday evenings for $5. The
Saturday matinee, which is open to
the general public is offered at $4.
The reduction of $1.25 for the stu
dent matinee tickets is not open to
faculty members, University assist
ands or house mothers.
Due to the intense interest shown
by students in the work of the dram
atic department, the Players felt that
they should cooperate with the stu
dents and give them their best at a
student price.
Dates have been so arranged that
there is no conflict between the shows
and athletic or other University
events. Freshmen are allowed Thurs
day evenings out to attend the Play
ers' presentations, according to a rul
ing of the Executive Dean last year.
The company making up the Uni
versity Players is in the twelfth year
of its existence. It is a distinctly pro
fessional organization, the players
beinf in advanced dramatic work or
alumnus members with much exper
ience. Many of the instructors also
appear in the casts.
The University Players will open
their season with "Seventh Heaven,"
October 17, 18, and 19, in the Tem
ple Theater. The list of the plays in
cludes several of the latest New York
successes, famous comedies, and a
Shakespearian tragedy. "Craig's
Wife," the Pulitzer prize play of
1925-26 will be offered to the pub
lic in December. "The Music Master,"

OVER DRAKE
Defeat in Impressive Victory
in Season's Upener.
Witness Game
HANDS OF NEBRASKA MEN
After piling up five first downs and
making a dangerous bid for a touch
down in the opening minutes of play,
Drake was forced to take the defen
sive for the rest of the bout. With
the exception of the first quarter,
the Comhuskers played an aggresive
game ran plays smoothly and dis
closed the fact that Coach Bearg has
plenty of good material on hand.
"Blue" Howell, playing his first
game for Nebraska, was an impor
tant mainstay in the varsity eleven.
"Tackled by Howell," was the con
sistent report during the Bulldog's
bid for their touchdown in the first
quarter. When Brown plunged six
yards for the first touchdown, it was
"Blue" who carried the ball within
scoring distance by snccc.-siva gains
through the line. In the last quarter
he plunged through for the final
touchdown.
Jug Brown, Nebraska's triple
threat man, started the Scarlet and
Cream on its scoring streak by racing
around left end for twenty-five yards
and later carrying the ball for a six
yard gain and the first touchdown. He
place-kicked the extra point. He was
on the tossing end of most of the
passes and did most of the punting.
Glenn Presnell, another one of
Bearg's hard hitting fullbacks, broke
through the line time and again for
yardage, and drove over the Drake
left side for three yards and a touch
down in the second quarter.
"As likely a bunch of material
from here as I have seen for some
time," remarked one of the Valley
scouts who was watching the plays.
He summed the situation correctly.
Dailey, Bronson, Holm, A. Mandery,
Marrow, Stephens all are backs who
made a good account of themselves m
the Drake game. By booting a sixty
yard kick, the best punt of the con
test, Bronson showed that he could
do as good a job of punting as he
does calling signals.
The line was considerably shaken
up by substittutions during the game.
Joe Weir and Sprague, who jumped
in the air for a seventeen yard pass
in the last quarter, made a good
showing at the end positions. McMul
len and Randells alternated at left
tackle.
The usual early season defects
were more plainly marked in the
Husker camp than among the Bull
dogs. Fumbles and penalties from
offside and holding were quite a han
dicap in the Huskers' struggles for
first-downs.
Cook and Fry, the Bulldog cap
tain were mainstays for Drake on
both the offense and defense. Ev
erett, Johnson and Sutherland were
other Drake players who gave the
Huskers considerable worry. F. An
derson, who was injured and carried
off the field in the last quarter, was
resting easily at the Lincoln Sani
tarium last night.
With leaden skies, a green grid
iron and wild blotches of color in
the stands, the game was quite a
colorful affair. In the Nebraska stand
the scarlet and cream uniforms of
the Corn Cobs and Tassels brighten
ed the student section, while on the
west side blue and white predomina
ted. Everywhere yellow slickers stood
out boldly. The finishing touch was
added when the Cornhuskers trotted
out on the field in the second half
with their new scarlet and cream
football togs.
The Drake and Nebraska bands
marched around the field between
halves. The Bulldog players received
much applause with their formations
of the "N" and the "D."
