ROUND UP WEEK
COMES TO END
AT DEDICATION
Formal Service of Dedication
For Morrill Hall Was
Held Yesterday
MACLEAN GIVES ADDRESS
Ex-Chancellor Is Main Speaker
Of Day; Avery Presides;
Morrill Present
Morrill Hall, latest addition to the
campus of the University, was for
mally dedicated yesterday afternoon
at 2:30 o'clock. Former Chancellor
MacLean gave the address of the
day, and Arthur Morrill, son of Mr.
Charles Morrill, for whom the build
ing is named, read a letter from his
father. Mr. Morrill himself was pre
sent. The dedication was a special
feature of the Round-Up week ac
tivities. A large crowd filled the Hall
of Elephants, where the ceremonies
were held, and many people after
wards inspected the exhibits.
Chancellor Avery presided at the
ceremony. Following speeches by Re
gent Landis, Professor Grummann,
and Professor Barbour, Mr. Arthur
Morrill read an address for his
father. Mr. Morrill expressed his ap
preciation of the honor of having
the buildine named for him. He told
how upon first being elected a re
gent of the university he conceived
the idea of building a museum with
specimens gathered from Nebraska
soil. For many years he made the
building of a museum his hobby. It
urns npeessarv to store much of the
material in basements and other
places, because it was impossible to
get an appropriation to build a mu
seum, and there seemed little pros
pect that it would be erected during
his lifetime or that of his co-worker,
Professor Barbour. Mr. Morrill de
clared that he was proud of the Uni
versity. When he became regent
thirty-five years ago there were only
five hundred students in the Uni
versity. In all this time there has nev
er been a scandal connected with the
name of the university.
MacLeu Speaks on Sciences
Ex-Chancellor MacLean gave the
address of the day immediately fol
lowing. He spoke at length concern
ing science and its place in the uni
versity, with special reference to the
biological sciences. In addition he
reviewed the work of Mr. Morrill for
thC-university, both during the time
. be was regent and afterwards.
The musical program consisted of
harp and orchestra numbers. The
harp ensemble was under the direc
tion of Miss Marjorie Shanafelt.
The order of speakers was as fol
lows: Regent Landis.
Prof. P. H. Grummann.
Prof. E. H. Barbour.
Arthur Morrill, speaking for Char
les H. Morrill.
Ex-Chancellor George E. MacLean.
The museum was in order and
ready for inspection Friday morning,
although no installations were com
plete. Miss Elizabeth Dolan, who has
been working on the fresco back
grounds for the museum corridor
cases, had practically finished her
work at that time. In 'order to give
visitors an idea of what the finished
work will be, some of the animals
have been given a first pose, to' be
corrected later, and life-size draw
ings have been colored, cut out, and
set up in some of the cases until the
actual animals can be placed there.

Bracelen Speaks at Ljnckeoa
One of the feature events of Satur
day's program was the address given
by Charles M. Bracelen, an alumnus
oi Nebraska, at the Alumni luncheon,
held at the Activities building on the
Ag College campus.
Mr. Bracelen is vice-president of
the American Bell Telephone com
pany with headquarters at New York
City. He was graduated from the
University in 1907.
Speaking on the subject, "The
Building k Great University," from
the standpoint of "big business, be
emphasized the fact that one of the
lessons learned from "big business'
is that of wise planning for the fu
ture. "Budgets are necessary and invalu
able, but they are not enough to give
the stability, orderliness, and econ
omy that the best managed concerns
secure as a result of taking a long
look ahead," he continued
Comparing this University with a
big corporation he suggested that
"they lay out their programs of ex
pansion and development, and finan
cial plans for meeting them, for five
ten, twenty years ahead. This plan
ning ahead avoids the wastes and
hazards of mere opportunist rolicy,"
Salaries at Foci of List
In taking up the needs of tho Uni
versity he pointed out the fact tliat
the classes were overcrowded and
the faculty over-worked. "The sal
aries paid at Nebraska are close to
the foot of the lift This is not fair,
nor is it good business," the spe
stated.
Another outstanding thought pre
vailing' throughout the address was

are what may be termed the "shining
lights," upon whom much of the fu
ture of the state depends. It should
therefore be the purpose of those in
whose hands the power lies, to see to
it that the graduate of this University
may be as fit as possible for his fu
ture work, this being possible through
a more business-like university.
The fci&t of chancellor being va

of this office and what should be
looked for in a new chancellor.
