Copies of today's special Dad's
Day Nebraskan will be sent out
from booths on the campus today
by thd Vikings to the dads of all
University students free of charge.
All that is required is that the

booths in front of the Social
Science building, the Library, and
Mechanic Arts hall. It's an easy
thing to do, members of the com
mittee feel, and it may make
"Dad" feel pretty good.

The Quadrangle orchestras are
considered the best in Columbia and
the one secured for the Nebraska

Orchestras highly, best one just re

MYSTERIOUS ROBED
FIGURE ON CAMPUS
Seen
by Student Hurrying from
Law Building to Social
Science; I Masked
A great deal of comment was cre
ated yesterday morning on the cam
pus when twice between classes a
black-robed figure walked through
the hurrying crowd between the law
building and Social Science halL
At nine o'clock the person was
seen going east from Social Science
and walking into the law building ana
tim lnrkpr room downstairs. At
ten he was seen by a Daily Nebras
kan reporter going around the south
side of Administration building.
The person seemed to be a student
for he knew his way across the cam
pus, and he seemed to be walking
with some objective. He was of me
dium height, from all reports, and
wore a long black cape with a hood
attached. On his face he wore a black
mask. Other description is lacking.
Various theories were offered by
students who watched him walking,
as to his identity. Some thought he
masked himself because of some scar
or accident he might have received.
Others thought he might be an In
nocent on the trail of some junior to
tap, but he wore a black robe and the
Innocents appear robed in public
only once a year. Several ventured
that he was some eccentric prodigy-
seeking excitement.
University Players
In Unusual Programs
In addition to their regular pro
gram of plays the University Players
contemplate something of a dramatic
"experiment" later this year when
they will present for special perfor
mances a number of plays of a decid
edly unusual nature. "Rip Van Win
kle" is one of the more widely known
works which they hope to produce
Others under consideration are "Lil

HIGH STUDENTS
ON EDUCATION
Chancellor Open. Broadcast
Season with Annual Speech
To State Students
DR. CANFIELD IS QUOTED
Dr. Avery Agree. That Higher
Institutions Are Continu
ation of Grades
Chancellor Samuel B. Avery made
his annual radio address to the high
school students yesterday in the first
complete radio program this year.
The speech was broadcast from the
University studio over KFAB. The
speech follows:
"To my invisible audience of high
school students:
"It is becoming a tradition that
the chancellor of the University shall
address a few words to the high
school students at the opening of the
radio year. There is no class of peo
ple whom I address more gladly,
though I miss, while speaking into
the microphone, the inspiration of
the personal presence.
"In addressing an audience, one
always speaks more easi'y and prob
ably more satisfactorily when dealing
with a subject .n which he has a very
vital interest. It is. therefore, natural
that I should have something to say
about education in general and the
University in particular. I think you
will not consider some mention of
the latter irrelevant.
"One of my distinguished prede
cessors, Chancellor Canfield, used to
refer to the University as the 13th,
14th, 15th and 16th graae of the
public school system. Since thet time,
through the development of the
Graduate College, still higher grades
have been added. Though not legally
organized as a unit system from the
first to the 18th grade, from the
