A short outline of the history of
Innocents is included In Dr. Con
dra's annual introductory speech,
prior to the moment when thirteen
junior men are struck co the ground
on Ivy Day each year. Innocents
were organized on the campus in
1902 and this year marked the
twenty-ninth tapping ceremony.
The group is no longer self-perpetuating,
Dr. Condra declared,
but instead they arc seiectcd by
the Innocents and an alumni com
mittee on selection. He announced
that Mr. O. J. Fee, Sioux City; Mr.
Verne Hedge, mayor of Lincoln;
and Dean Kinger, Omaha post
master; were among the former
Innocent alumni who had returned
for-yeatt;rduy'. cci'traonyr-i-iT iddi
tion Jovce Ayies, an Innocent last
year, and Mr. L. P. Skinner, presi
dent, of the group in 1914 were
presented to the audience.
Being sure that all junior men
were on their feet and that most
of the ripe juniors had been
"spotted," Dr. Condra cleared a
circle in the center of the rec
tangle to torm what he chose to
term the "court of the Innocents."
William Mi'Clecry this year':!
Innocent's president went first into
the field to dash Dick Davereaux
to the sod as new president. Other
members "of the senior men's hono
rary followed in quick succession
to "get their man" until the thir
teenth man remained to be tapped.
At this point the traditional stall
ensued and the annual difficulty
of iocating the last Innocent occur
ed, despite the fact that he was
quite plainly evident to many who
were in much less favorable point
of vantage than Innocents them
selves. As has always happened
in the past the thirteenth man va.i
finally found and the - ceremony,
the festivities, and the gayctic of
Ivy Day were once more com
pleted. Innocents Prominent.

Several upsets were noted by
those who aspired to be "in the
know" in things "politique" on this
campus. The absence of one man
in the new group was alarmingly
conspicuous, as was the presence
of one tit her. Some surprise was
expressed concerning the choice of
officers. Conttary to expectations
in some quarters the barbs got no

Three fraternities, Sigma Phi Sig

scholarship is intended to mean
that the recipient has done some
thing more than merely pass the
course with little or no regard for
the instruction it contained. It
means that real proficiency has
been achieved. Those with high
averages in the university are
thereby given much better oppor
tunities and all that goes with
them.
Speaking of the Honors Convo
cation itself, Doctor Worcester de
clared that one of its greatest ad
vantages is the advertising it gives
to high scholarship consistently
maintained. Freshmen and stu-
den ts new to Nebraska rp thus
introduced to the desirability of
good scholarship and early realize
that it is an important feature of
university life.
Students Show Ignorance.
"It is remarkable how few stu
dents are aware at all of even the
better known honorary societies,"
continued Doctor Worcester. "Up
on questioning some students in
another school about the honor or
ganization to which they might be
come eligible, I found that some
of them did not know the name of
such organizations as Phi Beta
Kappa, and even some of the grad
uates did not know of its existence.
