Davis was ques tioned about the activities of the association and especially with re gard to Us relations with the engineering snd other departments of the University of Nebraska. Dean Hammond, editor of The Daily Nebraskan, was also ques tioned briefly as to the advertis ing policy of that paper. "I Don't Remember" Is Answer Mr. Davis, while admitting his oenocUoo -with- .-U- National Electric Light Association, dis played little knowledge of the in ner workings of the organization. "1 don't remember" was a favorite answer to many of the questions of the committee. Mr. Davis was connected with the association up to July in 1927 He Is no longer connected with that organization, he said, nor with the Nebraska-Iowa rower company. Students and teachers of engl neerlng and economics In the Unl versity derive practical profes sional advantages from contact with Dower companies and associa tions lii the opinion of Mr. Davis. He tawtlfied that he believed that it was appropriate for university professors to belong to the Nation al Electric Light association. Worthwhile Information from the discussion at the meetings could be obtained, he said. Mr. Davis was also questioned with regard to activities of particu lar university professors. He test fled that in farm electrification de veloDment the association co-oper ated with and assisted the College of Agriculture. The witness displayed a rather woeful lack of knowledge of the constitution of the organization. Senator McGowan, rather exasper ated at his dlffldency, reminded him that he had answered many of the Questions before the federal trade commission a few months before.

Fawell Services With That the authority or power of Jesus is available in a very real sense to anyone who avails him self of Its source, was the opinion expressed by the Rev. W. C. Fawell, Methodist student pastor, at the opening evensong meeting of Holy Week In the University Episcopal church Monday evening. "Monday In Holy Week is thought of as a day in which Jesus exercised His authority as the Son of man and the Son of God. This authority, while received in a sense from the Father, differs from what might be delegated to an officer of the law. "We are told that on this day Jesus links His authority or power with faith and with prayer, and calls His disciples to a faith that will make thera men of authority aad power. When the disciples were in danger on the sea, and agf.ln when Peter started to walk upon the waters to come to the Master, the power of faith was shown. It was as if the Master bed said: 'Peter, you have failed t t SCHUL1E TAKES LARGE SQUAD TO TE) Cornhuskcr Track Mentor selects i men 10 j Make Relays j LEAVE AT 1 150 TODAY I Cniithprn Outdoor Will Be i wOUinern UUIUUUI Bi First Meet in upen For Nebraska i Twenty-one Nebraska track ath letes will bear the Cornhusker Scarlet and Cream to the S.

These courts are located on the east and west sides of tho Coliseum. They will be ready for service this week according to Harold Sherman.stu dent, caretaker of the university tennis courts. The courts were built last fall to take thn place of those formerly extending across the east end of the parade grounds. The building of Andrews hall made necessary their removal. Because of bad weather conditions and mlshlevous youngsters, the new courts were effectively put out of condition for fall season. The youngsters, it may be noted, ncas of the present courts. At pre sent it is the custom for those who wish to play to sign up hours be forehand in order to secure a court. In many instances students are turned away on account of an In sufficient number of courts to ac comodate them. The new courts should lessen the overcrowde.dness and accommodate thosa players who had been turned away, the care taker stated.

He Offer Encouragement "A word of encouragement llki this is more than unique. If a mac should be in the emoloy of a great corporation, and fall to do some small task assigned to him, It is not likely that a greater responsi bility would be offered him, with words of encouragement. We must not think the Master makes use of undopendable characters, but He does point out the cause of fail ure, and challenges the worker to accomplish greater things In the future." This authority, according to Mr. Fawell, was related by Christ to prayer. Blessings will come to that church or individual who cornea to Jesus and asks the cause of fail ure, and who waits for an answer.
