A bill attempting to raise the
educational requirements of the

Much discussion was made of tne

bill were able to keep it until the
third reading. It was voted down in
the flnul reading Tuesday morning
by a voto of U to 51.
Oni; Of the proponents of the dm,
Representative Van Kirk, of Lin
coln, explained hiB reasons for
favoring tho bill. He favored an
amendment lu tho senate which
would compel law graduates of the
University- of Nebraska and or
Crelghlon university, to take a bar
examination beforo being admitted
to practice, the same as all other
applicants would have to do. Rep
resentative Van KIrk'B opinion was

Black Is Undecided
Coach Black had not definitely
decided who tho starters would be
for the Kansas clash last night, but
ludlcated that the starting lineup
would be the same as it was in the
Iowa State game. The prospective
lineup is as follows: Grace ana
FUh6r, forwards; Maclay, center;
Lewandowskl and Witte, guards.
Coach Black's concentration of of
fensive strength worked well

will meet an acid test tonight

Mystery Tales

There Is not much mystery as to
why the Awgwan will not be out
February 10. mat nappens to dc
Sunday and a poor day for mystery.
Bigger and better mysteries are al
ways committed on blue Monday.
That is just the point the new
staff is all for bigger and bluer
Mondays. With this new policy in
mind for 1929, watch for tne new
mystery number on fcehruary ji.
If anvone knows any girls by tho
name of Pearl, ho will Just squirm
and wlgglo In anticipation of am
McCleery's latest, which is en
titled, "Not a Shot." Florence Se
ward reveals the secrets of "Drug
Store Etiquette" which relates the
mysterious antics of a wnat.'
Bob Laing has submitted "Masters
In Sleuthology" revealing a few in
cidents from the private life of a
certain Shyrock Holmes.
Comedy la Promised
This probably would not Interest
the Greek element at Nebraska un
less it promised to be funny. Virgi
nia Faulkner's "Book Review" will
be just that. One feature of this
month continues as an outstandihg
mystery. "The Adventures in De
mentia" has had the mall element
wondering if Dementia was a
sorority or a game of chance. One
should read the panning of several
local professors and then redraft
his conclusions.
Ray Murray has submitted "Girl
in tho Black Coat" which appears
as a sequel to "Man In the Black
Coat."
Clever exchanges have been re
ceived from tho Voodoo, Caveman
and other papers. These all carry
out the mystery motlt just how far,
no one knows until noxt Monday. A
new department, called "Aunt Hat
tie's Male Box" will reveal some of
the surprises that can come out of
a mail box. Snowshoe Sal having
como into her own these last few
winter months, has submitted
Othello In Desdemona.
One might conclude from this
that the art section had turned
editorial, but that is not. true. The
cover drawn by Jimmy Pickering,
reeks with mystery and sends ap
prehensive shivers up and down
the spine. Margaret Ketrlng has
drawn a "Mystery Girl" which
should arrest the attentions of Ne
braska's campaigning youth. This

several other cartoonists.
