Eddie Jungbluth'a collegians, a
novel prize contest, and a general
valentine theme are some of the
outstanding features which will be
presented at the All-University
party to be held at the coliseum
Saturday night, according to Alan
Williams, chairman of the barb
council in charge of the event.
"In the contest which we will
conduct as the last and crowning
feature of the party we feel that
we have something which will pro
vide a source of interest and
amusement," Williams asserted.
Audience to Judge Calls
The general idea of the contest
is a test of ones ability to recog
nize bird calls. A radio enter
tainer, who specializes in the im
itation of bird cries will give ten
imitations of well-known birds.
Members of the audience, who will
have slips which are to be passed
out at the point of entrance, will
fill in the calls as they believe they
recognize them, and deposit their
judgments as they leave. The four
persons who turn in the most
nearly correct slips will receive a
dollar apiece as a prize remuner
ation. Names of the winners will
be announced In The Daily Ne
braskan next week.
Letter to Be Opened.
The signboard, southeast of
pharmacy hall, has been decor
ated in the form of a Valentine
letter to all University of Ne
braska students. This letter is to
be opened revealing an open invi
tation to the party with a descrip
tion of the program, entertain
ment, and party arrangements;
will be opened later in the week.
A full program of entertainment
wiil be presented in addition to the
mra-cauing contest, Williams an
nounced. The nature of. this pro
gram is not to be revealed until
later in the week, it was declared.

tribe at ChIIiiu are with Mr.
Staples In showing Indian arts and
ceremonies. The three, selected by
the tribe, are Haska-na-ya, medi
cine man and sand painter; Ya-na-hHh,
a woman weaver: and
Da-Pah, a finished silversmith.
Haska-na-ya, meaning swift
man, Is a veteran medicine man
who at one time planned to attend
the Carlisle Indian .school. His
people, however, had planned to
make him a medicine man. At
their request he remained on the
reservation. In the opinion of the
tribe he is their best star-gazer.
The weaver, Ya-na-bah, is an
exceptional artist and can do five
types of weaving which she demon
strates on the looms she has with
her. Da-prih, the silversmith, is a
maKtcr in his art and capable of
doing all sorts of Kilver work.
The general outline of the pro
gram presented to each group in
cludes demonstrations of the pro
cess of the weaving of a Navajo
rug, with the weaver working at
five different looms on five differ
ent designs. The silversmith be
gins with silver coins and pro
gresses through the different
stages of his art. The sand painter
does a painting in sand on the
floor which is explained by Mr.
Staples.
Mr. Staples has devoted his life
to this sort of .work. His main pur
pose is the encouragement of the
Indian crafts which are fast dying,
and the education of the public to
the rapidly vanishing Indian culture.

CORNHUSKER SALES
Over-Supply of Yearbooks
Formerly Brings New
Plan Selleck.
SET GOAL 2,000 COPIES
A consistent over-supply of
Cornhuskers, resulting each spring
from the purchase of more year
books than are purchased by the
students, has resulted in the new
plan of disposing of copies of the
annual, according to John K. Sel
leck, director of the student activ
ities fund.
"For a long period of years we
have had a surplus of from 100 to
700 Cornhusker yearbooks annu
ally," Mr. Selleck pointed out.
"Due to the excessive cost of
printing an annual such as the
Cornhusker and the monetary loss
which inevitably accompanies an
over-supply, we have found it
necessary to institute a new sys
tem. "This year the Cornhusker staff
will be allowed to order only as
many books as are ordered by stu
dents in advance. There will be
absolutely no extra books for sale
I in the spring.
Set Final Purchase Date.
The final sales drive for the 1931
Cornhusker is being conducted
during the current week under the
sponsorship of the Tassels. This
drive is to continue through Wed
nesday of next week, after which
date no copies will be sold. There
will, of course, be no possibility
or reopening sales In the spring
because there will be no extra
books available.
Twelve hundred copies of the
yearbook were purchased by stu
dents during the sales campaign
last fall. Staff members and Tas
sels are now working toward a
goal of 2.000 copies in order that
completion of the book on the
scale originally planned may be
insured. Sales prices for the pre
sent drive are $5 cash or $5.50 on
the installment plan with a $3
down payment and $2.50 on de
livery of the book.
The editorial staff of the year
book reports that work Is progres
sing rapidly toward the comple
tion of what they hope to be one
of the best apnuals in recent
years. Special emphasis on new
features of the Cornhusker, and
an original set of engravings are
expected to add materially to the
value of the book.
SELL OPERA Ti
Include Resident District
Canvass as Part of
Service Program.
Mortar Board, as part of their

performances which promise to be
as colorful and spectacular as the
preceding ones
Members of Mortar Board are
assisting in the opera performance
under the auspices of the univer

The January issue of the Ne

college publication, was rated "A"
according to word received from
the headquarters of the Engineer
ing College Magazines Associated.
This is the fourth time that the
Blue Print has received this rat
ing out of the five issues put out
this year. Ratings are based on
the editorial content, appearance
and general condition of the pub
lication. The January issue contains a de
scription and' the method of con
struction of the Ambassador
bridge across the Detroit river,
connecting the cities of Detroit
and Windsor, Ontario. This bridge
is one of the largest in the world,
the main span being 1,850 feet

navigable width of the river.

4-II MEMBERS
TOTAL THIRD OF i
AG ENROLLMENT
Pointing out that 4-H club mem- i
bers over Nebraska are progres
sive boys and girls, State Club
Leader Frisbie showed this week
figures that one-third of the stu
dents enrolled at the college of ag
riculture during the first semester
were former club members.
Frisbie showed by his figures
that there are more former 4-H
club boys enrolled at the college
than former club girls. His chart
proves that out of the 591 students
in the college for the first semes
ter, a total of 171 come from far
mer 4-H club ranks.
Nearly one-half of the freshman
boys enrolled at the college the
first semester are former club
members. The percentage of for
mer club members taking home
economics is less,' but this mav be
explained by the fact that many
of the majors in that department
are girls coming from towns and j
cities in Nebraska. '

oh, yes, she is learning fast.
Miss Pratt, also a Jury woman,
is something of copy-cat In asking

tions are always of a religious na
ture, and the prejudiced judge al
ways su3tains the attorney's ob
jection to them.
"Ladles of the Jury," Fred Bal
lard's hilariously funny comedy
will be presented throughout this
week at the Temple tbeater.,.The
play is highly amusing: and is pro
duced very well. The twelv mem
bers of the Jury, with Miss Howell
playing the , leading role of Mrs.
Crane, are well cast and play their
parts with professional si: 111 and
deft touches which bring out the
comedy in the play. , - . .
