Editor'i Notei This is th
.econd of a aeries article
which Mr. Kr hat written for
The Daily Nebraskan on the his
tory, development, aims and
ideals of the University.
(By Munro Kezer)
In the first article in this series
discussed the general develop
ment of western state universities
and their mission.
Let us now turn
to the establishment and develop
ment of our own insuiuuon x.ie
TTniversitv of Nebraska.
The story of the University of
Nebraska is as wonderful a story as
any other tale of pioneer days, ine
territory of Nebraska became the
state on March 1, 1867. -Less than
two years after this date, the Univer
sity was established. Indians still
roamed the plains of the state. Set
tlements were few and small. The
population of the state was less than
100,000. But somewhere in the
breast of the state's sturdy pioneers
was a spark that pushed them for
ward to the early establishment of
a state university.
It was on February 15, 1869 that
the state legislature passed definite
legislation providing for the estab
lishment of a state university. The
governor, secretary of tate, and
auditor were given authority to sell
state property in Lincoln with which
to secure funds for the erection of a
University building. This was done
and $100,000 was appropriated for
this purpose.
Leaders Farsighted
The foresightedness of the state's
leaders was at that time almost far
sightedness. The wealth of the' state
was so small that the support of a
university was a serious problem.
The population was so small that
there was only a very limited num
ber capable of making use of such
an institution. The elementary and
secondary school system had not been
developed sufficiently to be of much
service in supplying students. This
fact hampered the development of
the University for many years.
But, nevertheless, a University was
established. The first step toward
the development of a higher educat
ed citizenry was made. Men with
prophetic vision looked eagerly ahead
to the benefits the state was to de
rive from a flow of men trained for
better liring. These early citizens
were willing to sacrifice in order that
greater advantages 'might be offer
ed their successors. They had con
fidence in the ultimate value of such
an institution and maintained it,
often in the face of great hardships.
Work Begun In July 1869
Work on the present University
Hall was begun about the middle of
July 1869. The walls had been com
pleted sufficiently by fall that the
cornerstone was laid September 23.
A band and a party from Omaha
drove all the way to Lincoln in car
riages to see the laying of the corner
stone and to take part in the cele
bration afterwards. Such was the
interest of the people of the state in
their university from its beginning.
The difficulties to be overcome in
erecting University Hall were amaz
ing. Nebraska and lumber were
strangers to each other. The lum
ber was shipped from Chicago to a
point across the Missouri river from
the present Nebraska City. It was
brought the remaining sixty-five
miles in wagons over roads that no
county could keep today without pro
test. The brick was burned twenty
or thirty miles from Lincoln and had
to be hauled in. But the building
was erected and school was formally
opened on September 7, 1871.
One building, with rather meager
equipment, a faculty of five, and a
student body of seventy comprised
the material side of the University
at its opening. But the spirit of the
pioneer which established if was pres
ent just as much .as any of the stu
dents. It was imbued with a funda
mental purpose benefit to the state
a purpose from which it has never
Wavered.
n Development Limited
The few high schools in the state
limited its development. Neverthe
less it grew. In those early years,
the University developed a philoso
phy of service that persists today.
It sought to turn out better students,
who would go back into the state
equipped to make a better state, on
bth the material and the non-ma-terial
side.
Under the administration of Chan
cellor Manatt, the secondary school
system of the state was stimulated
and improved. It was a most vital

Kansas Works
Hard For Game
With Missouri
Lawrence, Kan., Nov. 16. With a
conference football game safely won,
and with the memory of a last min
ute victory last year, the University
of Kansas team is spending the week
in preparation for its match with its
rivals of 35 years the University of
Missouri next Saturday at Colum
bia.
The Jayhawk team rallied in its
game Armistice day with the Univer
sity of Oklahoma, and displayed some
creditable football, and some strategy
of high order, taking the game 10 to
9, after the visitors had gotten the
jump in the scoring. None of the
players were injured, and after r
rest over the week-end, all the regu
lars were again on the field under the
direction o Head Coach Franklin C.
Cappon.
Kansas and Missouri have been
meeting on the gridiron since 1892.
and in that time Kansas has won 19
and Missouri has won 11 games. Five
have resulted in ties. Kansas har.
amassed a total of 379 points and
Missouri 214. Closeness of the record
is shown in the past Ave years, in
which each team has won twice, and
the 1923 game was a 3-to-3 tie.

Varied Forms of Word "Alumnus' "
Perplexes Most Students on Campus
The word "alumnus" in all its
forms seems to be one of the most
npmlexinor of our campus jargon. It
is a term constantly in use, yet sel-
om used correctly. We speaK or
alumnae coming back to coach the
football team", and "sorority alum
ni". In fact we use it in every con
ceivable way but the right one.
Professor Floyd Harwood, of the
Classic Department, says that the cor
rect use runs: alumnus, one male
graduate; alumni, several male grad
uates; alumna, one female graduate;
and alumnae, several female grad
uates. But the complicated side of
the question comes in the pronuncia-
ion, for in Latin the words are pro
Pharmacy Department
Prescribes Remedies
For Relief From Colds
Now is the time that 'colds' are the
popular indoor spirt. Coughing,
sneezing, blowing, wheezing; every
body s doing it. Originality typifies
individuality, but the latest modes
are dictated by the Student Health
Department in the Pharmacy build
ing. Many afflicted students are finding
relief in the prescriptions of this
department whose aim is to keep the
health of the student body at the
best possible point at all times. Some
of the faculty to prove their progres
siveness have put their faith in a
'get-well-quick' serum. Others have
tried faith alone. However Dean Ly
man of the College of Pharmacy re
ports that considerable relief has
been found by following the advice
of the health department.
LAST CALL FOR
CLASS PICTURES
Seniors and Juniors Given until
Wednesday Night To Have
Pictures Taken
Seniors and Juniors may have
their pictures taken Tuesday and
Wednesday of this week for the
class sections of the 1927 Cornhusk
er. An extension of the time limit
was made by the editor of the year
book last Saturday when it was
found that a large number of upper
classmen who desired their pictures
in the book had not yet made their
appointments. Wednesday night,
November 17, is the final date for
pictures, and no photos will be ac
cepted after that date.
The class section of the 1927 an
nual will be more distinctive than
ever. A new arrangement of pic
tures will be effected, with a back
ground of a tint block featuring the
wrought iron design work which will
will be used throughout the book.
Daily Nebraskan
Inquiring Reporter
Today's Question: Should a frater
nity be allowed to live next door to
a sorority house?
Place asked: Social Science Hall.
Elinor Gustin, '28, Lincoln.
"I think they should be across the
street from each other, ft would save
expenses of renting a Ford, you
could get better acquainted, and the
bunch could get together after sup
per for a little informal meeting."
William H. Lamme, '28, Fremont.
"The houses should be alternated,
then the fellows wouldn't have to go
far for an evening's entertainment."
Jack Spear, '27, Genoa.
"It's not a good idea, because tha
undergraduates would waste too
much time. Of course that wouldn't
apply to upper classmen."
Audrey Beales, '29, Blair.
"Yes and no. I'm not definite on
the subject."
Bud Hunt, '28, Lincoln.
"Wonderful ! Although it might de
tract from' studying, there is nothing
like it."
John Trout, '29, Omaha.
"Nobody would get any sleep."
Marjjorie Carr, '30, Lincoln.
"It would make things real 'club
by", and foster a brother and sister
feeling instead of that of fellow and
girl which now exists."
George Haney, '30, Columbus.
"Closer relationship and wider ac
quaintanceship would be the result.
Then too, it would help save expen
ses. Wouldn't need a Rent-a-Ford."
Freshmen Tryouts For
Olympics Are Tonight
Freshmen Olympic tryouts for

classes in wrestling and boxing
will be held at seven o'clock to
night in the Coliseum. All fresh
men who can possibly attend are
urged to do so.
nounced: alumni, with a double "ee"
sound, and alumnae, with a long "i"
sound. Yet when these are anglicized,
the pronunciation is reversed, and
alumnae takes on the final "ee"
pnund, and alumni the long "i". More-
i' r, alumni may includ" tola uius
culine and feminine when they are
spoken of collectively, as the "alum
ni of Nebraska".
All in all, the matter seems to be
rather mixed up, and custom appears
to agree with the use of the first term
that comes tc mind. The simplest way
out of the matter seems to be to call
them alums that takes in every one,
and may be contested by none, for
no one can tell what you mean.
Band benefit

Coliseum Will Be" Scene of Gay
Party; Proceeds Will Send
Band to Washington
TICKETS NOW ON SALE
A Band Benefit party will be held
Saturday night in the coliseum, the
proceeds to be used in sending the
University band to Seattle on
Thanksgiving day.
The dance will be held to take the
place of soliciting for funds which
the band has resorted to in previous
years to get sufficient funds to make
a trip. It was announced by officers
of the band Monday that this will be
the only chance students will have
to support the band on this trip.
The ticklet sale opened this morn
ing. Band members will canvass the
campus before the end of the week in
an effort to -wake the party the
largest ever held in the city. Those
in charge of the dance expect more
than twelve hundred couples to at
tend the party, and plans are being
made to accommodate that many.
Admission of one dollar a couple will
be charged and a dollar for stags.
An extensive entertainment pro
gram is being planned. The num
bers will be taken almost exclusively
from within the band and it is pos
sible that the Varsity Quartette will
furnish several numbers. The exact
nature of the program has not yet
been disclosed but it will probably
be made up of solo and group num
bers by men in the organization not
eligible to make the trip.

UNIVERSITY GIRLS
NEEDED BY Y.W.C.A.
City Organization Issues Call For
Student Help In
Reserve Work
"A number of University girls are
needed in several different phases of
the work of the city Y. W. C. A.,"
stated Mrs. Paul Campbell, Acting
Girl Reserve Secretary of the city
Y. W. in a recent interview.
At present, one girl is needed to
lead a Girl Reserve group at Hay
ward school Thursday afternoon from
three to five o'clock. She will be
thoroughly trained before being
placed on her own initiative.
"We also need university girls,"
continued Mrs. Campblel, "to assist
in making dolls which are to be sent
to the Indians and to foreign lands
for Christmas."
A new type of doll is to be made
this year, the Friendship Doll, so
called because it will be dressed as
nearly as possible like the average
American girl in order to give these
foreign recipients some conception
of the American girls whom they are
to consider friends.
Girls interested in either of these
kinds of service are requested to
telephone Mrs. Campbell at the city
Y. W., while any girl desiring a spe
cial sort of service, is asked to call
on and talk with Mrs. Campbell per
sonally.
