Tbe Nebraska Student council

The federation has beld national

held on the Nebraska campus, and
the succeeding year at Columbia,
Mo. This year the national meet
ing will convene at Atlanta, Ga.
Membership dues are assessed
on tbe basis of enrollment, with a
maximum tax of $100. Because of

YEAR THURSDAY NIGHT
STUDENTS
RUSH
TICKET SELLERS
One-Fifth of University
PeoDle Apply for
Football Scats.
DEADLINE IS SATURDAY
Outside Sales Are Heavy;
Indicate 15.000 for
Opening Game.
Thursday was the busiest open
ing day tn tbe history of the L'nl
veiflty of Nebraska, In regard to
the sale of football season tickets,
according to John Sellack, bul
nasa manager of athletics. Ap
proximately one-fifth of the stu
dents made their application for
tickets on the opening day. while
the greatest rush Is anticipated for
Saturday forenoon, as the student
lottery sale will close promptly at
12 o'clock on Saturday the 2"lh.
Although the lottery sale will
close at noon. Saturday, student
tickets will still be obtainable at
the regular student prices, but
thev will not be for the best seats.
Student prices at $9 for regular
seats, and S9.50 for seats in the
cheering section.
Systemized Last Year.
The svstem Is the same as was
used last year in the handling of
student's tickets, and is proving
very satisfactory. Under the plan,
the students who have aeats in the
cheering section will be expected
to be present at every game, or
see that the seat is occupied by
another student. This will make
the cheering more effective, and
Insure co-oeratlon of all in the
yelling section. Pupils who fail to
follow the above rule will be
forced to gie up their seat for
one in another section, or they
may have their money refunded in
return for their ticket which would
let them attend the remainder of
the games.
Outside ticket sales have also
been very heavy, with numerous
season tickets, and single game
tickets having been sold. Indica
tions are that there will be be
tween 15.000 and 16,000 persons in
attendance at the first game of
the year, Oct 4, when the Corn
huskers will take on the Texas A.
and M. team. The battles with
Missouri and Pittsburg promise to
be the best attended games of tbe
year, unless the advance ticket
sale cannot be used as an accurate
barometer.
IS
Nebraska's Quota May Drop
Or Increase With IMevy
Regulations.
Important changes in the method
of choosing Rhodes scholars have
been made operative beginning this
year. Under the new 'plan it wtll
be possible for any school to have
two, one, or no Rhodes scholars in
any one year instead of always
getting a given portion of the
quota of scholars from the district
in which it is located.
The change, according to Dean
J. D. Hicks, chairman of the uni
versity Rhodes' scholarship com
mittee, may work disadvanta
geous for Nebraska, since Ne
braska will be put in competition
with the larger schools of Minne
sota and Iowa, while it has had
heretofore a constant quota of two
scholars every three years.
Country Divided.
Beginning this year, tbe forty
eight states will be 'divided into
eight districts of six states each.
There will be competition in every
state every year. State commit
tees will be allowed to nominate
two men to appear before the dis
trict committee. District commit
tees will select from the twelve
candidates appearing before them
the best four to represent their
states at Oxford. A state may
thus receive two scholarships or
none, in accordance with the mer
its of its candidates.
Another important change has
neen made this year whereby
Rhodes' scholars will be allowed
the option of spending their third
year at Oxford or at any other
university in the world, outside
their native country. They will be
further allowed the option of tak
ing their third year Immediately
at the end of their first two or
after a period of some year's work
in the United States.
Stipend Is 400 Pounds.
The stipend of a Rhodes scholar
is fixed at 400 pounds a year. No
restriction is placed upon a Rhodes
scholar in the choice of studies.
Grouped with Nebraska in the
Fifth district of the United States
are Minnesota, South Dakota,
Iowa, Missouri and Kansas.
Students interested in competing
for the Rhodes scholarships from
Nebraska should secure a blank
from Dean J. D. Hicks, room 112
Social Science hall.
The Nebraska Rhodes Scholar
ship committee cons.st3 of Dean J.
D. Hicks, Dr. Samuel Avery, Prof.
E. H. Barbour. Prof. M. H. Merrill,
and Prof. C. H. Doldfather. This
committee will pass on tbe applica
tions from the university and make
recommendations to the state com
mittee. According to the scholar
ship rules, not more than five can
didates should represent a given
Institution in the competition of a
state.

DISCUSSION OVER
ATHLETES ARISES
FROM EDITORIAL
Contributor Accuses School
For Indulgence In
Buying Stars.
EDITOR UPHOLDS J. K. H.
Lamson and Coach Attack
McCleery't Policy By
Articles.
Are University of Nebraska
athletes given preference over
other when It come to securing
student Jobs In Lincoln?
This seems to be the paramount
question these days, with The
Dally Nebraskan taking tbe Initia
tive after J. K. R.. student opin
lonator In the Morning Mail col
umn of a few days ago. stated that
the university has gone Into "the
athlete proselyting game.
Coach D. X. Bible, head mentor
of the Cornhusker football squad,
and Willis B. Lamson, a writer In
today' Morning Mall, can't quite
see things the wsy that The Ne
braskan editor. Bill T. McCleery,
has set things forth thus far.
The coach reiterates what he
declared In Thursday's student
opinion that all "Jobs are open for
Investigation" and that "no job" Is
created, but we have found work
for worthy students aside from
the athletically Inclined.
In his dissertation today Lam-
on. a star trackiter classed by
students In general as one of the
"higher type," takes issue with the
editor's Ideas on athlete's jobs.
"What about all of the jobs on
the campus that athletes at other
schools usually get?" Inquires
Lamson. "Do you see any atnletea
getting jobs from the university
Itself 7 I guess not. If the athletic
department wants jobs for their
athletes they know better than to
ask around the campus for them."
And now this morning McCleery
asks of the track man: How about
some statistics on the matter of
athletic Intelligence T This is be
ing asked because of denial on the
part of Lamaoen as to McCleery'!

In giving out tbe total enroll
ment. It was pointed out at the
dean's office that the figures did
not eliminate those who registered
last spring but failed to pay their
fees this fall. When official fig
ures are given out, the enrollment
may be cut a few.
Boy students outnumbered tne
girls at the agricultural college,
there being 376 enrolled for the
first semester while 272 girls were
registered. The freshmen boys'
class of 118 was considered larger
than last year's. There were fifty
three freshmen girls enrolled this
year, according to the unofficial
count.
Only twice In the past twenty
years has tbe enrollment at the
college decreased In successive
years. With an enrollment of 247
in 1910 it has increased until last
year for both semesters and sum
mer school it Increased to 750. The
two years that the enrollment
failed to increase were in 1924-23
and 1925-26. This was probably
due to poor crop conditions over
the state at the time.
