Carlson fouled once too often and Calvert made good the toss. Calvert also proved the high point man of the contest by scoring three field goals and five free-tosses. Delta Sig Win Delta Sigma Phi emerged the vic tors over the Alpha Gamma Rhos 21 to 17 despite the work of Roth, Alpha Gamma Rho forward, who scored five field goals and proved the high-point man f the contest. J. Mason and DicKson were the main stays of the winners, Mason scoring nine points. With every member of Kappa Sigma entering into the scoring list, they soon compiled a total of 31 points while their opponents, Delta Sigma Delta, were scoring six points. The Kappa Sigs looked good in their victory and showed a smooth work ing aggregation of short-passers. Owens scored five goals from the floor to lead the Kappa Sigs in scor ing. Brown and Cutts showed up well for the dentists though they were not given much chance to show their wares. Alpha Sigma Phi took an interest ing contest from the Theta Chis by a score of SO to 8. Peterson and Kal beisn lead the Alpha Sigs to victory while "Chief" Elkins starred for the losers.

Assignment Committee Adjusting 4,000 University Registrations The Assignment committee, that group upon whose decision rests the fate of every registration schedule in the University, is probably the busiest organization on the campus at the present time. Each schedule goes through the hands of the student's advisor, to the dean and then to the Assignment committet where it is checked for conflicts; care is taken to make. sure that two-fifths of the hours registered are in the afternoon and class assignments are made. This work, which was started Tuesday, January 11, will be finished Thurs day or Friday of this week. Contrary to rather prevalent opin ion among students, thig committee does not work in a mechanical, arbi trary fashion, catting op and chang ing students' schedules with no re gard for the conditions under which many of them are attending school. Rather, the committee tries in a hu man but impersonal and impartial fanner, to take into consideration the problems and factors affecting the life of each individual student in so far as this is possible with be tween 4000 and 6000 registrations. Employment, distance of residence from school, and classes attended away from the main university cam Pus, are considered as vitally impor nt in the arrangement of a sche dule. The greatest concern of the As signment committee is to equalize the ect'ons in each course. The College CARNIVAL DANCE TO BE GIVEN SATURDAY Art Fraternities Sponsoring AU-Unl-veriity Affair in Art Gallery This Weed-End An all-university carnival dance, sponsored by Sigma Lambda and Pi Sigma Alpha, professional art sor ority and fraternity, will be held in the art gallery in the library build ing Saturday night, January 22. A genuine carnival spirit, with an elaborate decorative plan and ser pentine and confetti, will prevail, ac cording to an announcement made by the committee in charge of the affair. Because the Art department is moving from the Library to its new quarters in Morrill hall next semes ter, the party is being given as a sort of farewell. The entire student body and faculty have been invited to attend. COSMOPOLITANS TALK AT VESPERS Purpose of Club to Gain Under standing of Other Peoples, President Declares "The Cosmopolitan club is a group of foreign and American stu dents who have come together to seek and receive this understanding among nations. Cosmopolitan, ac cording to its ancient meaning, is a citizen of the world but it has come to have a higher significance and also means spiritual nationalism," said Sylvia Stastny, president of the Cosmopolitan club, in her introduc tory talk at the Vesper service yes terday. The entire meeting was in char' of the Cosmopolitan club. ". eign Students" was 1 sub ject of the speech given by M. Chen Shih Yuan, the club treasurer. Mr. Yuan said that there were over six teen nations represented at Nebraska and gave his own experience as a foreign student. The students from other lands have not come to Amer ican universities for the express pur pose of receiving a degree but to learn our customs and to understand us. American students are the most comfortable students in the world. They must have all the modem ap pliances in their classrooms and un like Chinese students would not think of going to class in an unheated room. In China there is no striving for popularity on the campus but intellectual labor occupies the stu dents' time and thoughts. "War is caused by ignorance and misunderstanding and the endeavor ing to cover up. the similarities of the different peoples and to stress In stead their dissimilarities," declared Alma Selky. "International friend ship is not only a term but is also an ideal." The special music of the evening consisted of a vocal solo by Mr Emilio Del Rosario. More Ushers Needed For Saturday's Game The athletic department still needs a few more cadet ushers fcr the basketball game Saturday against Drake. Applicants should s.gn up at the activities office, where they will receive assign ments. and Schools are arranged in a sen iority list in regard to the order of assignments. This arrangement has been worked oui in a logical, scienti fic way with those courses which are somewhat stereotyped and contain few electives given precedence over those with a more elastic curriculum and a greater elective scope. The order of seniority follows: College of Dentistry, College of Pharmacy, Pre-dents, Pre-medics, Pre-laws, School of Journalism, Col lege of Agriculture, School of Fine Arts, Seniors and Juniors in Teachers College, College of Business Adminis tration, College of Arts and Sciences and Sophomores and Freshmen in these colleges. Every freshman and sophomore schedule was accurately checked to determine whether it actually had six contact hours registered in the af ternoon. If this rule had not been complied with and the student had signified no employment, his schedule was rearranged to fulfill this require ment. The greatest number ?t changes have been made in Freshman sched ules for they have more possibility than upper classmen, in the matter of time, to work off requirements, take electives and arrange their schedules to their convenience and satisfaction. For freshmen such privileges belong to the future. The present system of registration (Continued on Page Two.) Student Conference Will Be Forum Topic Reports on the recent student conference at Milwaukee will be given World Forum this noon by Eloise Kecfer, '28, Lincoln and Joe Hunt, '29, Scottsbluff, who were among the Nebraska repre sentatives at the conference.

KANSAS POINTING TO HUSKER GAME After Suffering Jayhawkers, First Setback of Year, Drilling Hard Lawrence, Kan., Jan. 18 Spurred by defeat Saturday night at the hands of the Ames Cyclones, 12 to 15, the University of Kansas basket ball squad renewed practice this week for the second home game of the series, with Nebraska here Wed nesday night. The Jayhawkers, five times Mis souri valley champions, had won their first four games of the season, and started the scoring in the Ames game, but were soon tied, and did not regain the lead. Both teams re peatedly missed the basket, and the scores were unusually low, especial ly for Kansas. 49th Kanaas-Huiker Game The game Wednesday will h.ark the 49th time that Kansas and Ne braska have met oh the basketball floor.

BALL TICKETS PUT ON SALE Pan-Hellenic Ball Plans Are Announced ; Tickets, Are Limited to 300 Plans for making this year's Pan Hellenic ball the best party of the season were laid before representa tives of the thirty-eight fraternities of the campus at a meeting Tuesday night. The ball, which is under the sponsorship of the Kosmet Klub, will be held Saturday, February 5, at the Scottish Rite temple. Three hundred tickets were dis tributed among the fraternities for sale at $4.00 each. The number has been strictly limited to 300 by the Kosmet Klub in the belief that this is the largest number that can be comfortably cared for at the Scottish Rite temple. Fraternity represen tatives will check their tickets in Sun- dav at the Temple Theater. Senior ity within fraternities will govern the right to obtain tickets. Each fra ternity was given from eight to ten tickets according to its size. Jack Crawford to Play Robert Craig, representing the Kosmet Klub, explained to the frater nity representatives how the Klub had been able to secure Jack Craw ford and his ten piece band for the Pan-Hellenic. Crawford's orchestra has just finished a six month's en gagement on the Pacific coast, play ing in one of the finest ballrooms in San Francisco. Their original con tract was for six weeks but they were so popular on the coast that their en gagement was extendted until the present. They are to stop in Lincoln on their way east where they will play at a new ball room just opening in Milwaukee, where they have a year's contract. "They could have been obtained only at a prohibitive price," Mr. Craig explained, "if it were not for the fact that they can stop off here on the way east." Gregg Watson then told somewhat of the reputation of Jack Crawford and his orchestra. They have with them paraphanalia for presenting from twelve to fifteen acts of vaudeville during the evening. It was for this reason that the ball will be held at the Scottish Rite tem ple where facilities make it possible for all to get close to the orchestra, and get the full benefit of the music and vaudeville. There will be no intermission during the ball. The or chestra will start playing at 8:30 and the ball will continue until 11:30 or 12:30 if permission can be secured. Oregon U. Conducts Pool Channel Swim A cross-channel swim, conducted in a swimming pool, is the latest ef fort of Coach Abercrombie of the University of Oregon to develop var sity material.

FIRST DEBATE IS THURSDAY Nebraska Teams Ready For First Match of The Season; South Dakota Opponent FORUM FOLLOWS TALKS Nebraska's varsity debaters are putting the finishing touches on their work preparatory to the opening de bate with the University of South Dakota in Memorial Hall at 7:45 Thursday evening. The team to de bate at Vermilion will leave this noon. Both debates will be on the question, ".Resolved: That the gov ernment of the United States should 6e changed to include the principles of parliamentary responsibility." Split teams will be used in both debutes, an innovation in Nebraska debating circles. This arrangement will make possible an audience vote on the question. A ballot will .be taken before the debate and another afterward in regard to audience sen timent on the question. The debate will be followed by a rapid-fire open forum discussion as has been the custom for several years. Talent Is Unusual The debate in Memorial Hall to morrow will present an unusual ar ray of forensic talent. All three of the Nebraska debaters are former members of the "Think-Shop" and two of them have spoken on Nebras ka Varsity debate teams before. Two of the three South Dakota speakers have also represented their school on the debate platform in former years. George Johnson, Law '29, Lincoln, NebraskaIowa 1925, and Evert M. Hunt, '28, Lincoln, "Think-Shop" member last year will speak for Ne braska on the affirmative in the local debate. South Dakota is sending Maurice Nelles, who debated here last year on the Child Labor ques tion, as their affirmative speaker at the debate here.- Nelles is a senior in the school of engineering at South Dakota, president of the debating board of control and of the radio club, a member of A. T. O., and a varsity debater for the second year. Frost on the Negatire Lincoln Frost Jr., '27, Lincoln, Ne braska-South Dakota 1926, will be Nebraska's representative on the negative in the home debate.

Nebraska is sending a team of new men, but men who won their places in competition with the veterans, to South Dukota. John P. McKnight, '29, Auburn, will speak on the affir mative. Archibald Storms, Pre-Law '28, Holdrege and Charles Hansen, '27. Wolback, will debate on the negative. Professor Hill Says Relations Make the World Better "The post-war period has seen at-! tempts to raise the moral standards of . international intercouse," de clared Professor N. L. Hill of the department of Political Science, Tuesday afternoon in his talk over the radio. The speaker stated that this was only with questionable suc cess, but that "The Covenant of the League of Nations requires that all members shall register with the Sec retarial every treaty which they shall make and that no treaty is to be con sidered as binding unless that re quirement ia made. The obvious in tention is to secure publicity for all international agreements. During the past six years the League has pub lished about twenty-five volumes that have contained over 700 treaties of all kinds." Mr. Hill's lecture follows: Secret Diplomacy "Members of the International Community of States develop among Y. M. C. A. BOOK STORE WILL BE - OPENED FRIDAY Co-operative Book Store Will Save for Students, Says Head of Committee BOOKS NEEDED SOON Second Hand Books Will Be In Demand for Second Semester This Week A student Co-operative bookstore, will bo launched and put into opera tion before Friday in the Temple by the University Y. M. C. A., was the announcement given out Tuesday by Secretary Hayes. The Student Book Exchange, as it will be called, will sell second hand text books for a student at any price which he desires, less a discount of fifteen per cent for handling charges. Students, both men and women, may make use of this store. This system, according to Mr. Hayes, Secretary of the University Y. M. C. A. is being used in many universities today, and not only aids the student to receive more for his second hand books but others may buy them cheaper than otherwise. Want Books Now Mr. Hayes urges that all students immediately bring in their books for sale and as soon as they are sold the exchange will turn over the proceeds to them. Books used for the second semester of last year particularly are expected to be turned in to start business Friday morning. Joe llunt, '29, Scottsbluff, is chair man of the Book Exchange commit tee. He has sent the following let ter to all fraternities and sororities: January 19, 1927 Dear Friend: As one student to another let me ask you if it wouldn't be a fine ser vice to students to arrange it so that every one selling a used text book could get a good price for it and so that every one buying a used text book could do so at a real saving. A plan to accomplish this has long been in successful operation at other Universities. Now Nebraska students are to have the advantage of such an arrangement, promoted here by the University Y. M. C. A. The Student Book Exchange will begin operations in the "Y" Rooms in the Temple building Friday, Janu ary 21. Bring in your used text books that will be in demand for the second semester and leave them with the Exchange to' be sold for you at the price you name. After the sale is made the proceeds will be turned over to you, less fifteen percent for operating costs of the Exchange. Will you kindly read this letter to your group and post it on your bulle tin board. Sincerely yours, Joe Hunt Chairman Book Exchange Committee Arts Faculty Meets At University Club Sixty-two members of the faculty of the Arts and Science College were present at the discussion group meet ing held at the University Club last night The meeting was called for the purpose of discussing the propos als of a committee on changing the requirements for A. B. and B. S. de grees. According to Dean James, nothing was accomplished in regard to adopt ing the committee's suggestions. The business meeting followed the dinner which was served to the mem bers of the faculty. This meeting was a special session and does not take the place of the faculty's regu lar monthly meeting. Commencement Cover Week The Commencement program at the University of Wisconsin next June will cover six days of events. Diplomatic themselves either a spirit of neigh borliness or a petty animosity. Con tacts with each other are unavoidable and it follows that nations will frat ernize over the back fence or they will throw stones at each other's window-panes and quarrel. To some ex tent the friendliness of nations is dependent upon the frankness and openness of their intercourse or in other words the standards of their diplomacy which is the medium of their communication. True not all ill will is engendered by misunderstand ings, but sometimes an argument will disappear if both parties will place all of the cards on the table for free inspection. It has been said that the diplomacy of today is the "evil spirit of modern politics." The statement is challenging and suggests a careful inquiry into th -whole matter. "Unfortunately, when nations first began to deal with each other there (Continued on Page Three.)
