Museum Receives Mounted Specimens
Of Meadow Lark, Official State Bird
Two new additions to the Mor
rill hall exhibition of Nebraska
bird life were made by Mr. J. E.
Stipsky. of Hooper, Neb. One was
a pair of kingbirds with their nest
and eggs, and other a mounting
of a male and female spi-clrnens
of the meadow lark standing be
side their nest ' in which lay the
pale speckled eggs.
"The meadow lark builds its
( nest upon the ground, and as the
v nest is built of gras3 it is possible
to walk close to it without seeing
it." explained Mr. F. G. Collins,
assistant curator of the museum,
in his Thursday morning radio
talk. "Some men who were build
ing a wire fence did not see the
nest and laid the wire netting over
it. As it lay there a day or two
before being stretched and set up
rght, the birds deserted tho nest.
and Mr. Stipsky used it as part of
f his mounting."
"The meadow lark is the official
bird of Nebraska, bv an act of thf
legislature," stated Mr. Collins.

Student Life Editor Calls
For Comical Pictures
For Cornhusker.
Trick photographs or humorous
snapshots of campus scenes and
personages will be used throughout
the student life section of the 1930
Cornhusker. according to Bill Mc
Cleery, studeDt life editor. Stu
dents having such pictures are in
vited to submit them to McCleery
or to turn them into the Corn
husker office in the south base
ment of University hall.
"A definite plan will be used
this year in the student life sec
tion," stated the section editor.
"The nature of this section will
not be released until the Corn
husker is out, however."
Last year's Cornhusker used the
"Liberty" idea as its student life
program. Takeoffs and parodies,
together with numerous photo
graphs, were used in this section.
Bill McCleery was also student life
editor last year.
Harold Pedley, member of the

taking of snapshots for the sec

formed from the Latin words
meaning 'large starling.' The east

in Nebraska, is called 'Neglecta,
and means 'neglected.' That name
was giveu because the species had

Five Clubs Hear Debate on
Problem; No Decision
Is Advanced.
Interracial marriage, its biologi

cussed by the Cosmopolitan club
meeting in open forum with the
Comenius club, the Interracial
group and the Wesleyan Y. M. C
A. and Y. W. C. A., last Friday
eveulng.
The affirmative of the proposi
tion: "Resolved, that interracial
marriage is detrimental to human
progress," was upheld by Rev. W.
C. Fawell and Attorney Tibbies,
speaking on the basis of sociologi
cal and bilologlcal fact. The neg
ative of the question was debated
by Claude Gordon, Fred Chrlsten
sen and Benjamin Hill, university
students. Mr. Gordon developed a
strong case for interracial mar
riage based on biblical and scien
tific facts.
Because of the delicate nature
of tho subject, no decision was
made, and no arguments was
deemed conclusive, except as food
for thought.
