DIRECTORS IN BIG SIX
Nebraska Cage Stars Will
Be Clothed in White, Per
New Ruling
Director of Athletics H. D. Gish
and Dean T. J. Thompson were the
Nebraska representatives at the
meeting of Big Six conference of
ficials in Kansas City Friday and
Saturday. The athletic directors
met Friday and there was a joint
meeting of faculty representatives
and athletic directors Saturday.
One of the matters discussed at
Kansas City was that of freshman
competiti'i in all sports. This
would enable freshman teams in
ff.otball, basketball and wrestling
tc- compete with other schools in
ont or two meets. However there
was no action taken.
The rule on the junior college
athlete was also discussed. Th.- is
in regard to permitting athletes
who have competed in Junior tol
leges to later compete in Big Si.?
conference athletics. Definite ac
tion will be taken at the spring
meeting In March.
Cagers Wear White
Nebraska cage fans wil! see
their team perform in white suits
on the home floor this season. It
was decided at the athletic direct
ors' meeting that the traveling
team shall wear rmits of the color
of Its school. The home team will
wear white suits. This is just op
posite the practice of last year and
the practice of foolba'.l teams. The
reason for this, recording to Mr
Glsh is that it s easier for 'h
home team to keep the white su Ls
clean than the one 'bat is travel
ing and that the home team should
try to cater to thij home crowd.
The officials for n-xt year's f?t
ball games were assigned but the
list is not eompleie new. The Big
Six football schedule for 1929 had
alreadv been made up. The sched
ules for the 1930 teasr-n will be
made at the Fpring meeting of con
ference in March.

GIRLS TELL TALES OF

Y. W. C. A. Experimenters
Have Hard Time on
$13 Weekly
With blistered fingers. I worked
behind a mangle trying to catch
towels as they rolled out," stated
Lela Marshall of Wayne, an indus
trial experimenter, in her speech
at Vespers Tuesday evening. Three
girls from the University of Ne
braska attended this industrial ex
periment and sought a job among
the working girls of the large
cities.
"I worked in a laundry in Chi
cago for thirteen dollars a week."
asserted Lela Marshall. Seven dol
lars and a quarter of that amount
I spent for room rent, and the rest
went for street car fare and
lunches. The girls who worked in
the laundries received the same
amount and at the same time were
helping to support their families.
One little Irish girl gave ten dol
lars to her family, which left three
for her to spend on herself.
"One day when I did not feel like
eating she went across the street
and bought some ice cream for me
out of her own three dollars. This
Is a good example of how sympa
thetic and generous the girls were
to each other."
Conditions Terrible
They were very proud when they
did a fine piece of work, but at
Limes they were very antagonistic
toward the laundry. One girl de
clared, "We are becoming machines
the more work we do, the more
they want." The Polish women
thought of forming a labor union in
the factory, but before the union
could be formed the management
made the employees sign pledges
that they would not join the union.
"I do not think it's fair that they
should be made to sign anything
against their wish," said Miss Mar
shall. Wages were lowered In sum
mer because the laundry was not
making enough money. Even the
heat was so intense that it im
paired the health of some of the
women. One day there was a cool
breeze blowing in the window, but
the floor woman slammed It down
because it interfered with their
work.
Mary Ball, who was a receiving
clerk at Camp Maqua on Thomp
son's lake hi Maine, and Ruth Hat
field, who was swimming instruc
tor at Camp Okabojl, spoke about
camp work at a Y. W. C. A. camp.
Hard Life In Camp
"I counted everything that came
Into camp including the people.

Ball.
The staff lived in five-room cot

rooms, a living room, and a bath.
Each living room had a large stone
