CONFERENCE IS

Delegate. Discuss Impressions,
Personnel, and Subjects
Considered at Meeting
HEAR FAMOUS SPEAKERS
With one purpose in mind, that of
seeking for the resources of Jesus'
teachings as applicable to our lives,
twenty-five hundred delegates from
every region in the country assembl
ed in Milwaukee at the National Stu
dent conference from December 28
to January 1. ' Three delegates from
the University of Nebraska present
ed different phases of the conference
at the Vesper services on Tuesday.
Eloise Keefer was in charge of the
meeting. Mabel Ludlam gave a vio
lin solo.
The Reverend G. A. Studdert Ken
nedy from London was the most in
spiring and popular speaker accord
ing to Helen Clark who spoke on
the personnel of the convention. Es
pecially helpful to the delegates was
his talk on prayer. Other men of
national renown were Bruce Curry,
chairman of the National Student
Convention Committee; Kirby Page,
an authority on national industrial
problems; and Howard Thurman,

People
Foreign Countries Represented
Delegates from thirty foreign
countries and all colleges and univer
sities, from Maine to California,
were present.
"Too often we think of the Chris
tian woman in service as a serious-
minded individual with huge oxfords,
fraved hat brim and a slouch ac-
eomrianied bv a shiny nose," said
Esther Svoboda in telling of the sub
jects brought up in the discussion
groups. "The discussion groups were
the core of the convention, and
helped the delegates to an intimate
understanding of the problems of
the modern campus."
Seeking Troth
"All were seekers for the truth,
and everyone spoke with frankness,"
was the impression of Esther Garner.
"None of the meetings were com
pulsory, yet everybody went. New
lines of thought were opened up.
The whole wek's program was care
fully planned and carried out with
efficiency which helped the spirit
of the convention."
That the Convention was a mile
stone in their lives, or a mountain
top experience, as one speaker ex
pressed it, was the opinion of all
the delegates.
Twenty-five More Cadets

of Helen, his daughter, will be taken
by Joyce Adair. Both of these
Temple players are noted for their
unusual ability in carrying heavy
leads in the productions offered in
the past four months by the Univer
sity players.
Critics Regard Play Highly
Numerous dramatic critics have
pronounced "The Music Master" one
of the greatest comedy dramas that
was ever produced. David Belasco
the producer of the "Auctioneer,"
and David Warfield, one of the
greatest actors of the time are the
producers of this play, in which War
field starred. These same men
made the "Auctioneer," which was
presented by the University players
for their November production.
"The Music Master" ran for two
years on Broadway and it ranks
among the first ten that brought the
highest box office receipts on New
York's theatrical row.
Around Antone Von Barwig, an
aged music teacher the play is cen
tered. Barwig has forsaken his
i brilliant and beloved career to leave
Europe and come to America
come to America in
search of his lost daughter. After
many years of fruitless and discour
aging search, he discovers that one
of his piano pupils is his own daugh
ter, now grown to womanhood. A bit
of love and romance is portrayed
throughout, in which the daughter of
the music teacher is the chief char
acter. Miss H. Alice Howell director of
the University players and head of
the dramatic department has started
rehearsals for the play.

Modem compositions predominat

Rolla Van Kirk of the Wheatley
Vocal Studio at the first convocation
after the holidays at 11 o'clock yes
terday morning in the Temple

Although the audience was limited
the numbers sung by this well known
soloist were well received.
Delinquency Among Students Shows
Three to Four Per Cent Decrease
A decrease iii delinquency of from
three to four per cent has been ap
parent among students of the Uni
versity this year over last year, W.
Claire Harper, assistant to the dean
of men, declared today after com
pleting the reports for the third
quarter.
At the first quarter and at the mid
semester, about twenty-one per cent
of the students registered were de
linquent in one or more of the sub
jects for which they were enrolled,
Mr. Harper said, while at the third
quarter the percentage of delin
quency had dropped to nineteen. "At
each of the first three quarters of
this semester, there has been from
three to four per cent fewer cases
of delinquency than at the same time
last year," he stated.
Mr. Harper's report also shows
that fewer students have been sus
pended from the University this year
than were dropped a year ago. At
mid-semester this year, 240 students
were called before the scholarship
committee as compared with 275 a
year ago. Only 64 of these 240 were
suspended, while 97 were dropped
from the rolls of the University the
first semester of last year.
Fraternity Delinquency Decreased
New Course is Offered
Law College Freshmen
Legal Bibliography, a course
dealing with the history and writ
ing of law books and the finding
of law references, will be offered
to freshmen in the College of Law
during the second semester.
Although the course offers no
real credit, students admit that
the course is valuable in finding
law reference books in future law
courses. The course will be offered
next semester on Friday and Sat
urday at eight o'clock in Law 300.
Mr. G. E. Price is the instructor.
GROUP PICTURES
TO BE SCHEDULED
Appointments by Organizations for
Yearbook Photographs Must be
Made by January 7
January 7 has been set as the final
day for group pictures to be taken
for the 1927 Cornhusker. All clubs,
societies, honorary fraternities and
professional fraternities are being
called by members of the staff and
inf ormed of this date. They are be
ing urged to make appointments im
mediately for their sittings in order
that the time will be sufficient to
allow all of the groups to have their
pictures made.
It is possible that unless the ma
jority of the appointments are made
within the next week or two, some
of the groups will have to take in
convenient hours because of the
. . i i 1 1
rush lor appointments Dy inose so
cieties which find it necessary to
wait until the last minute before
having their pictures taken.
. Appointments must be made by a
delegate of the organization with
Mr. Larrivee of the campus studio
directly. In this way it is hoped that
the mistakes which have been made
in the past when several people set
the appointment for one organization
will be eliminated.

Register Early.
Delinquency of fraternities also
has decreased with each quarter this
year. The percentage of fraternity
men delinquent this year is about
one and one-half per cent less than
a year ago, Mr. Harper declared.
Two reasons for this improved
condition are advanced. The first,
and perhaps the one that has in
fluenced the students the most, is
the more stringent scholarship rules
now in force. As the result of these
rules, Mr. Harper believes students
have studied a bit harder than in
previous years.
The second reason is the change
m the entrance requirements lor
freshmen. A student's eligibility to
enroll in the University now is based
on the work of his last three years
in high school, tenth, eleventh and
twelfth grades, whereas previously
the four-year high school course was
used as the basis for entrance.
One noticeable feature of the
scholarship is the improvement
among fraternity men, Mr. Harper
observed. Last year, he pointed out,
was the first in which fraternity men
showed a lesser percentage of de
linquency for both semesters than
non-fraternity men.
TICKETS MOST BE
EXCHANGED SOON
Selleck Urges Students to Get Cage
Tickets Before Friday; New
Score-board in Place
According to John Selleck, man
ager for student activities, only
2,000 of the student football season
tickets have been exchanged for the
basketball season tickets and there
are still 1,000 reserved seats left in
the student section.
The student activities manager
urges that all exchanges be made be
fore Friday. Exchanges will be made
after that time, but it may be dif
ficult to get a ticket exchanged just
before a game. Every seat is re
served and a football ticket will not
admit anyone.
There is now a new score-board
which gives the number of minutes
to play and the names of the players.
