Selleck PICTURE TIME LIMIT EXTENDED Date Advanced to January 21 By Cornhusker Editor For Greek Panels NO FURTHER EXTENSION The deadline for individual pic tures for fraternity and sorority pan els in the 1928 Cornhusker has been extended to next Saturday, January 21. The studios were unable to take care of the last minute rush. All Greek letter men and women and professional fraternities are urged to make appointments early next week so as to avoid the last minute rush. There will be no fur ther extension of time, according to Dwight Wallace, editor. Sophomores, freshmen and upper classmen who do not appear in the junior and senior class sections must pay $1.50 to pay the cost of an en tirely new negative. If it is desired to use last year's picture, arrange ments should be made at the studio. It is imperative that the individual pictures be taken at once because the panels must be sent to the en gravers. The beauty of the section and its just representation depends upon the cooperation given by the organizations in having their pictures taken.

James Cuneo, professor of Spanish had charge of the meeting. He spoke of the club as being the lab oratory of language, offering the students of Spanish somewhat the same benefits as are offered by lab oratory work in other studies. The meeting was opened with a song sung by members of the Lincoln High School Spanish club. A num ber of students from various Univer sity Spanish classes told anecedotes and short stories in Spanish. Jose A. Cuneo gave a short talk on the tango, which is a native dance of Argentina. He stressed the fact that the tango appealed more to the mind than to the emotions. This was rather astonishing, for the peo ple of the northern countries are prone to think the Latin people are almost governed by their emotions as expressed by actions.

DEAN OF HARVARD TALKS TO FACULTY Professors of Arts and Sciences College Entertain Harvard Alumni at Dinner Faculty members of the Collegq of Arts and Sciences of the univer sity held a faculty dinner at the University Club Friday night, hon oring Harvard alumni and G. H. Edgell, dean of Architecture at Har vard. Dean Egdell expanded along the lines of prospects in architecture, past, present and. futurtj, relating that twenty years ago it was almost imperative for an architectural stu dent to study abroad before he could accomplish successful work. It is a different story today, however, the speaker declared, as American architects are doing work equal or superior to that being turned out by foreign members of the trade. Nebraska's new capitol building was paid a tribute by Mr. Edgell, who claims that the edifice is one of the finest pieces of architectural work he had ever witnessed. "It is classical and refined and yet thor oughly modern in construction," he said, in the course of declaring that Lincoln is gaining wide publicity wherever architectural gatherings are held.
