Intercollegiate athletics, and student health. Studied Many Months "During the fifteen months this matter was under consideration by the committee, members of the committee- visited other' institu tions, discussed the problem with all parties concerned, and held committee meetings without end. When it had concluded Us investi gation, the committee submitted its unanimous report to the ad visory council of the University, consisting of the deans of the col leges, and to the athletic board, both of which gave it unanimous approval. The plan was approved by the board of regents on April 14, 1828. However, the University's present limited field and play space, absence of hospital space and plan, lack of money for more extended health service make it dlflfcult to say when this plan or Minnesota. Wisconsin, Michigan. Illinois, Iowa, and at Iowa State college fully 80 percent of the men take part In some sort of intra mural sport regularly. Quoting from the committee report: 'In these institutions they are paying more attent'.on to the general health of the students than we are at Nebraska, Their health depart ments are much better manned than ours, some of them having as many as five full-time physicians. Tbey all endeavor to see that each student bas a thorough physical examination annually and Is given the proper kind of physical exer cise following this examination. Some of them also have psychiat rists who look after those students who are mentally unbalanced. Most of them have provided Infirmaries for those persons infected with In fectious diseases, and some of them have a hospitalization plan. In all of these institutions the cor relation of the everal branches relating to the physical welfare of the students Is much closer than It is with us at Nebraska. Thera Are Six Divisions "The committee finds that at the University of Nebraska there are six divisions: namely, physical education for women, physical edu cation for men, coaching school, intramural athletics, intercolleg late athletics, and student health, which deal with various phases of instruction in physical education, athletics, and student health but uhlch are functioning largely In dependent of each other. We be lieve that at the present time tbe several departments are function ing quite as well as could be ex a modification of it can be placed In operation. The committee was astonished to learn that at the Universities of pected In their more or less inde- JUST A PERSONAL SOLICITATION OF YOUR MUSIC BUSINESS Bob Wilson at CrancerV 1210 O St. pendent May. However, we. believe that a closer correlation would very greatly increase the effect iveness of their collective as well as their Independent functioning. It Is our opinion that the best way to meet this situation Is to place the various phases of student health, physical educatbn, coach ing school, etc., under a single head. We feel (hat such an ar rangement would remove any ten dency toward duplication of in struction . and equipment, would more efficiently use our limited facilities, and would give much greater direction to our whole. pro gram or physical education in its relationship to student life. "Therefore, the committee re commends that the board of re gents consider first, the feasibility of closer correlation of these Im portant branches of our physical education program; and second, we recommend the appointment of a competent director of student physical welfare. . . . However, we suggest that the adoption of the plan and the apolntment of such a director be considered separately. Plan Is Discussed "The plan was discussed with a number of men of national reputa tion and each one of them gave It his hearty approval as being one of the best possible for major in stitutions, although it might have to be modified in applying it to any particular institution. Among those persons interviewed were Director Fred Leuhring, of the University of Minnesota; Major John L. Griffith, commissioner of athletics of the Western Athletic conference; at Michigan univer sity; Dr. Clair V. Langton, director of hygiene, public health, and physical education at Oregon State college; Dr. John Wilce, secretary of the national coaches asociation and football coach at the Univer sity of Ohio; Assistant Director Lundgren of the department of stu dent welfare at the University of Illinois." T. J. Thompson, Chairman, Special Committee appointed by the Board of Kegents. AVERY PRAISES WORK OF CHAS. H. MORRILL Continued Prom ree 1. appropriations for the university at that time. "After I was elected acting chancellor, just twenty years ago almost to a day, my relations with him became more intimate. He occasionally assisted in presenting the needs of the institution to the members of the legislature. "He took a highly Intelligent part In the election of regents. He en couraged gifts and legacies to the university. Though one of the most helpful of friends to the in stitution he always carefully re frained from any appearance of riddling with Internal matters. He was more anxious to serve than to direct. Morrill Hall Is Named "As the plans for Morrill hall be gan to take shape, I saw him still more frequently. He brushed aside, for a time, my suggestion that the regents would presumably gladly name the new building in his hon or. Finally, he consented to the recommendation that the museum be named Morrill hall. "His wish to live to see the new building dedicated was granted In full measure. He followed very cloaely, through photographs sent him. its later progress. "Mr. Morrill was a benefactor of the ideal type. His influence on the university will be enduring."

Attendance At Football Games Shows Increase Nebraska set a new attendance record for the past three years when 34,(K0 eager grid fans crowded the stadium and tempo rary bleachers for the Missouri game on October 27. This has been surpassed but once in Ne braska football history, when the Notre Dame game drew a crowd of 39.000 In 192S. No total report of the attendance at either home games, or those away has been made by John K. Selleck, business manager of ath letics. No reports have been re ceived from the Kansas or Okla homa games, and consequently no official report of the season can be made. It was, however, by far the biggest in history, Mr. Selleck said. Unofficial Reports Mad. Unofficial reports of some of the games played in Memorial stadium gave the attendance at the Syra cuse game as 23.000 and the Pitts burgh game 25,000. Figures from the Oklahoma game at Norman gave the crowd as 26,000. When Nebraska met the Army at Michie Stadium in New York, 21,000 fans were in attendance. Data from the seasons of 1926 and 1927 show the steady increase in football Interest. In 1926 a to tal of 104,625 saw the Cornhuskers In action, their five home games being attended by 62.887. The high point In attendance was reached at the Missouri game, when 16.348 attended. In 1927 a total or 121,074 witnessed the Hus ker battles, with the total for the five home games being 79,889. The New York game ranked high, with 28,204 fans. Drinking Has Become Scandal at Virginia Richmond. Va (IP) Rev. Da vid Hepburn has called upon Gov ernor Harry F.

"The American university was started by donations from Ameri can friends. It has two main branches of study, science and re ligion. As to religious stud-, the idea is to take each different re ligion and study it to see its own beauty and value." Mr. Fam told of the wonderful work of C. Steele Holcombe and his wife, who are loved by their Egyp tian neighbors in Cairo. "Mr. Hol combe's Y. M. C. A. work has been a great benefit to Egypt" said Mr. Fam.
