fessor of ficrinnnic languages, "Molts would break into locked
school houses, and burn any books that contained d'ennan words
or teachings in it."
H:. Fossler continued with the story of the University dur

was a rather insane wish of the I lnf m Omaha. A few weeks after-
people to remove German from all
the schools. Steps in legislation
were taken then, forbidding any
foreign language tct be taught in
the schools above high school, de
clared Mr. Fossler.
"Prejudice was si) great during
this time," said Dr. (Fossler, "that
people would protest against hear

Final Settlement of Brown

LAWS SENT CHALLENGE
Engi - s Ask Neutral Party
Tc - Je Matter On or
Before March 3.
The definite resting place of the
"brown derby," formerly of the
Law school and at present in the
possession of the Engineering col
lege, will be determined at a joint
convocation of both schools, at
which time final settlement as to
the ownership will be made.
A committee of the two schools
will meet at noon today to decide
upon a definite plan of procedure
and to settle the claims of the two
colleges.
Students of the Engineering col
lege issued a resolution Monday
night as a challenge to the Law
school to meet them and to place
the matter of contention In the
hands of a neutral party, on or be
fore March 3, and to decide then
as to the ownership of the trophy.
The brown derby is a Law col
lege tradition ana formerly was
awarded to the man in the fresh
man class who made the "dumbest
crack" during the week. The win
ner of the derby was compelled to
wear it throughout the week until
a new claimant was found.
The executive board of the En
gineering college in its meeting
Monday passed the following res
olution in response to the letter
appearing in last Sunday's paper:
Resolved: That, since the En
gineering college has in its pos
session one brown derby, to
which it has just claim,
And since some other groups
on the campus, specifically the.
lawyers, claim that the hat is
being held without just cause or
right of possession,
We, the Engineering executive
board, will place the object of
contention in the hands of a neu
tral party till such time as any
interested parties shall present
and establish claims to the hat
which are better founded and
more valid than those of the En
gineering college.
Any such interested parties
shall present and prove their
claims to the hat, and final set
tlement of the ownership of the
hat shall be made on or before
Thursday, March 3, 1D32.
If no such claims or action has
been taken on or before said
date, the brown derby shall be
come the permanent property of
the Engineering college without
further controversy.

FIFTEEN TESTI FY IN
Carelessness and Negligence
Of Owner and Driver Is
Result of Death.
(Krom Morning Journal.)
ASHLAND. After hearing tes
timony of seventeen witnesses, a
coroner's jury Monday afternoon
returned the verdict that the acci
dent in which Leo Skalowsky,
Norfolk, University of Nebraska
student, met his death near here
last Wednesday night "was caused
by carelessness and negligence of
the owner and the driver of the
truck, but not to the extent of
being a felonious act."
County Attorney Worrall an
nounced following the inquest that
he probably would file charges of
having improper license plates and
improper lights against K. J. Kid
dle, Ashland implement dealer,
who owns the truc k, but indicated
he did not contemplate filing any
charge of criminal negligence.
It was brought out at the in
quest that county authorities had
been handicapped in their investi
gation of the accident because
none of the witnesses or principal
parties reported it to the sheriff-s
office. Sheriff Mengel said the
first word he received of Ihe acci
dent was after Ashland people
read about it in Lincoln news
papers the next day.
All the witnesses except Fred
Dolezal, driver of the truck, agreed
that the taillight on the truck was
not burning and most witnesses
said the headlights were dark.

M. I. T., South Carolina and

Information.
Almost complete control and
regulation of athletic policies is
exercised by students at the
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, according to a letter re
ceived recently by Art Wolf,
chairman of the Student council
committee on athletic relations.
The council is conducting a cam
paign to secure student represen
tation on the athletic board of con
trol here.
Athletics at M. I. T. are gov
erned by two bodies, the letter
reads. These bodies are the under
graduate managois, captaius of
teams, and an executive commit
tee of men from the senior class.
This organization, through the
managers, controls the details of
athletic management.
The other governing body,
known as the advisory council,
consists of four graduates of the
institution and three undergradu
ates. It acts in an advisory capa
city. 1 Under the existing system
the management is practically in
the control of the undergraduates,
but the advisory council retains
authority sufficient to take over
the control if necessary, according
to Thomas B. Hhines, president of
the undergraduate athletic asso
ciation. Carolina Students On Board.
Three students compose one
third of the membership of the
athletic council at the University
of North Carolina, according to
Mayne Albright, president of the
stucL-nt government at that insti
tution. These students have served
r.nce the organization of the coun
cil. The president of the student
body and the pesident of the ath
letic association, both elected by
the students, serve on the board.
The third student member ij
elected by the monogram club, an
organization of lettermen.
Student representatives are full
voting members in all matters con
cerning athletics at the university,
including the selection and salaries
of coaches and the arranging of
schedules. The influence of stu
dents on the board has been no
ticeable, Albright stated.
"Student interest and expression
through their representatives on
the council has been adequate," Al
bright stated in his letter. "The
representatives have interpreted
the student sentiment to other
members; they have usually fol
lowed the Advice of older men but
have at times persuaded them to
change their policies. Very few
conflicts arise in the council."
Two students are members of
the athletic board of control at
Louisiana state university, accord
ing to a letter received from Rob
ert B. Jennings, president of the
Student council at that school.
They are elected annually.
The two representatives, the
president of the student body and
the president of the athletic asso
ciation, have equal voting powei
with other members of the associa
tion, and they serve the purpose of
effectively presenting the student
viewpoint, the letter reads.

" 'Three Suns West' reflects the
local color of that country which
is so full of. adventure and ro

Nebraskan Seeks Opinions
Of Fraternities and
Sororities.
WHITE FAVORS PROJECT
All of the fraternities and soror
ities on the campus were called by
the Daily Nebraskan yesterday
afternoon and requested to bring
the matter of intramural debate
before their meetings. An effort
is being made to ascertain the
amount of interest there is in the
project and the support that the
extra curricular activity would
have if it were adopted.
A box calling for the sentiment
of the various groups has been
printed in the Daily Nebraskan for
the past few days. Answers have
been received from several organi
zations. It is hoped that all of the
groups will co-operate so that a
universal expression of the stand
of the organizations may be found.
The opinions of representative
men on the campus were printed
last week. It was found out at
that time that debating could be
established as a regular intra
mural project if the student inter
est warranted it. Rudolf Vogeler,
head of the inlramurals, signified
his willingness to include debate in
the other activities if the students
demanded it and said that he would
co-operate with them in establish
ing it.
Opinions Favorable.
The opinions of the men inter
viewed last week seemed to indi
cate that there are enough frater
nity men and sorority women who
are interested in the forensic art
and who would support it.
The value of debate was agreed
upon by all of the students. Lack
of the spare time in wnirh to pre

the principal defect pointed out.
