THIRD OF YEARBOOK IN PRINTERS' HANDS Probably Ready for Distribution About May 12 Student Life Fea ture Annual Production The 1927 Cornhusker will probab ly be distributed May 12 as most a third of the book is already printed and the remaining copy is in the hands of the printer. The feature of this year's Corn husker will be a Student Life section containing 28 or 30 pages of gossip consisting of cartoons, pictures, jokes, and "cracks" on individuals. A large portion of this space will be de voted to campus organizations.. A personal index will be an innova tion for the first time in the history of Cornhusker annuals. Something new has been introduced, in that the names of all students will be listed giving the pages on which their pic tures appear or the activities in which they have taken part. This will be a novelty in method making quite a change in the Cornhuskers estab lished customs. Another rather new thing will be the pebbling or strippling of the Cam pus Events and Scenes section. This has not been done for a long time. Copies of the 1927 Cornhusker are still available in the business office at $5.00. A limited number of ex tra coni have fcecu ordered, but with the unusually heavy sale that is an ticipated these copies are expected to be sold very quickly.

Grummann, di rector of the School of Fine Arts and professor of Dramatic Literature, presented the last of a series of twen ty radio talks on the musical dramas last evening when he talked on Gou nod's "Faust." Last time the Faust as written by Goethe was discussed. The compari sons of the two dramas, that of Goethe and Gounod, was brought out in this talk. "So popular did the story of Faust become that it inspired three impor tant composers to construct operas on the theme. The one that we are discussing, by Gounod, one by Boito called "Mephistophele," and one by Berlioz called "The Damnation of Faust," Professor Grummann said. "Sometimes Gounod's opera has gone by the name of "Marguerite." This is a very much better title for the opera than "Faust" for Gounod moves Faust himself into the back ground and is concerned almost whol ly with the Marguerite episode. The large and essential features of the CLARA WOOD GIVES RECITAL Student With Marguerite Klinker Ha Junior Program Thursday Clara Wood, student of Marguerite Klinker, will give her junior recital Thursday morning at the Temple Theater at 11 o'clock.

Large Number of Nebraska Professors Are Included In the 1927 Who's Who By Pauline Biloa Over one-third of the professors of full professorial rank in the Unr- versity of Nebraska are included in the 1927 Who's Who's. Tbey were selected on account of special prom inence in creditable lines of effort The development of literature, science, art and other phases of American activities are pictured through the life sketches of these men and women. John Donald Hicks, professor of history, was born in Pickering, Mis souri, January 25, 1890. He at tended-Northwestern' where he re ceived his A. B. degree in 1913 and A. M. in 1914. His Ph. D. was con ferred upon him by the University of Wisconsin in 1918. Professor Hicka was an assistant professor and professor of history at Hamline University from 19 IS to 1922. He also taught history at the North Carolina College for Women in Greensboro, North Carolina, from 1922 to 1923. Since 1923, he has held the position of professor of American history at the University of Nebraska, During the summer sessions, be has been employed as a teacher at Northwestern -University, University of Wisconsin, Syracuse University, and the University ol Minnesota. Professor Eicks b a member of Faust character are lacking. The love story gains so much prominence that we get a distorted view of Faust himself. "As in the original story, the opera begins with a scene presenting Faust in his study with the thought of sui cide. This suicide is hardly justified in the opera for we are given rather a faint conception of the despair that Faust has not been able to fathom the last secrets of the universe. In Goethe's "Faust" the great scholar was prevented from committing sui cide by hearing the bells ring out pro claiming the coming of Easter Sun day. Gounod has substituted for these Easter bells a chorus of maid ens. This makes the opera more at tractive but we see at once that it gives the character of Faust an un desirable twist to realize that he is rescued from suicide by a chorus of girls rather than by the Easter bells. "Gounod's Faust despairs of life because in his old age he lacks youth, love and faith, while in Goethe's (Continued on'Page Four.)

It has not been decided yet whether the leaders in ticket sales who are competing for the prize offered to the person selling the most tickets will be granted additional time in which to sell. That will be decided at a meeting of the committe Wednesday night Chairmen AsVed to Report All committee chairmen are aske,d to be present Wednesday evening with complete reports of their committees, This will be absolutely necessary so that each ticket may be accounted for. The seventh week of rehearsal was started Monday night when practic ally every member of the cast was present. Other rehearsals will be held Wednesday and Thursday even ings. The Thursday evening rehear sal will be held in the Temple Theater and will be the first complete rehear sal of the production. As far as is possible, costumes will be worn at this rehearsal.

Maurice Harley Weseen, author, was born in Oakland, Nebraska, on December 15, 1880. He received his A. B. degree at the University of Ne braska in 1914 and A. M. in 1917. Professor Weseen was an instruc tor at Iowa State College from 1914 to 1918. The University of Nebras ka has claimed him since 1918 in the capacity of. assistant professor of English. He has specialized in business English and correspondence. Professor Weseen is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, and was president of the Alpha Nebraska Chapter from 1924 to 1925.

RETURNS TODAY Tryouts for the Kansas Relays will be held at the stadium Thursday fol lowing the arrival of the Husker team home from California. The squad will arrive at 5:05 o'clock this morning. The fourth tri-color meet of the season for non-varsity track men will also be held Thursday after noon. Coach Schulte hopes to enter teams at Kansas in the 440, 880, 1- mile, 4-mile, and possibly 2-mile re lays and in the individual events. The Kansas meet comes April 23 with the Drake relays the following week-end. Indecision is greatest as to the 2-mile event due to the scar city of half-ilers, unless milers or quarter-milers double back. Johnson, Chadderdon, and Lemly, if his work is again up, are the only first class half milers. Sprague, Hays, or Tap- pan could run the distance. But both Johnson and Chadderdon will be needed in the 4-mile relay and the others either in the 4-mile or mile relays. Sprint teams are handicapped this year also. Stephens and Wyatt are both temporarily out again with pulled muscles which are more than likely to prevent their entry at Kan sas. If Doty gets into shape, the Huskers will have Lowe, Doty, Dailey and Davenport for their sprint team This wiil cut into the effectiveness of the mile relay team as both Dailey and Davenport will be needed there, Weakness in the sprints and an in sufficiency of good middle distance runners will severely handicap the Cornhuskers in this year's relay meets.

Tho "A" is given a girl for accumulating 300 points of var ious intramural contests at the Uni versity. When she makes 1000 points she wins her sweater. Formerly no more than ten girls have received their letters in a single year. Such an increase is explained by the im proved physical education depart ment and the new Women's Gym nasium. Intelligence Quizzes Unpopular L Q.'s aren't popular things to have at the University of Washing ton. L Q.'s or intelligence quizzes were given to the incoming class of seven hundred members of which only thirty-five had the courage to really take the tests seriously and make respectable sentences out of the jumbled words. Probably the un tested six hundred and sixty-five deemed themselves far superior to such child's play. Traditional Song Feet Held One of the senior customs at the University of California is a song fest in which both, men and women students participate. For tbe last time the old school songs are sung by the class which will be so goon separated. Professors Romantic? That romance is a quality not lack ing in the most staid of professors was clearly demonstrated when a number of Syracuse professors were questioned; as to where and how they met "lira. Prof." PLEDGING BILL IS FAVORED BY STATE SENATE Senate. File 257, Second' Year Pledging Bill, Brought from Committee and Voted On UP FOR THIRD READING Upper House, in Committee of The Whole, Prepares Bill For Third Reading The second year pledging bill which was thought to be dying in the committee on miscellaneous sub jects, practically passed the senate today when it was advanced to the third reading by a vote of 23 to 8. If the senate passes the bill it will go to the house of representatives to be voted upon there. Acting-Chancellor E. A. Burnett in commenting on the bill said that he felt that in general it would be against the interests of the Univer sity until dormitories are available. Without them it would be difficult and not satisfactory. Prof. E. F. Schramm, chairman of the Interfraternity Council feels that it will mean there will be rush ing throughout the entire year. He says that although laws may be laid down regarding rushing the men will go right on quietly doing so. Such a condition would take up a great deal of time of both upperclassmen and freshmen. "While there may be some bad points tiie good outnumber them," stated Prof. R. J. Pool, chairman of the Interfraterity Council last year. "I am glad the senate passed it and I hope the house will do the same." he said. Measure Is Amended The senate dissolved into a com mittee of the whole after the bill was placed on general file through the recommendation of the committee on miscellaneous subjects. The bill was taken up, discussed, and amended by the committee of the whole, and was read again in the senate. The bill is now ready for the third reading which will come in the near future. After a bill passes the committee of the whole it usually passes the third reading. Although the bill will not take ef fect until March 1, 1929, all the fraternities and sororities would be influenced by the measure immed iately because they would have to fill their houses next year in order to be financially secure when the bill becomes a law. A.W.S. CONVENTION TO MEET AT DRBANA Delegates from All Parts of Country Will Gather at Unirersity of Illinois April 20 to 23 The national convention of the In ter collegiate Association of Women Students will be held April 20 to 23, at the University of Illinois, Urbana, Illinois.
