Famed Tennis Quartet Will
Play Exhibition Match in
Coliseum Jan. 31.
Nebraskans will thrill once more
to the spectacle of towering; lobs,
machine gun smashes at the net,
and the zing! of meteorite serves
off steel-taut racquets tennis as
only a professional can play it!
Huskerland, renowned more for
its tall corn and gridiron heroes
than for court aces, will usher ten
nis into its own again in Nebraska
on Jan. 31 when the coliseum will
play host to three internationally
known professionals aces who
took on the best that England had
to offer and beat them!
Touring the country on a series
of championship matches, with his
troupe of professional racqueteers,
George Lott, Lester Stoefen, and
0 Ellsworth Vines, Big Bill Tilden,
the "grand old man" of the tennis
world, will make his fourth ap
pearance before Nebraska lovers
of the net game. It will be the
first appearance in Nebraska sport
circles for Lott and Stoefen. Pre-
viously. the veteran Tilden had
played Kozeluh. Nusslein, and
Vines, who met Big Bill last year,
before Nebraska tennis fans.
The Lincoln appearance, which
Is the only Nebraska stop for the
famous players, will be featured
by the doubles encounter, in which
t Stoefen and Lott, world's cham
pion doubles team, will meet Til
den and Vines. Singles matches be
tween the four stars are also
scheduled in the appearance.
Lott, universally accorded the
champion in doubles play, was
runnenip to Vines in the national
singles in 1931, after a third place
ranking in 1927. Lat year, Lott
and Stoefen, teamed in doubles
competition, in addition to captur
ing the national title, won the
Wimbledon competition and de
feated the Australian and British
teams in Davis cup play.
Stoefen, ranked in sixth posi
tion in 1932. was runnerup to Fred
Perry in 1933 singles play, defeat
ed Frankie Shields in 1934 to cap
ture the national indoor champion
ship, and teamed with Lott in 1934
t to win the national doubles.
Tickets for the matches are on
sale this week at Latsch Bros.

their selective process. A study of
the data revealed that whenever
f we tampered with the blue, there
was a greater tendency to make an
error. Changing the red light
seemed to have no effect. Still
further, we had produced changes
which made the lights equal in in-
tensity for cats but definitely un
equal for human beings. Under
these conditions, the red was very
bright to the human eye, while the
blue was barely perceptible.
"The elimination of the red re
sulted i nerrorless trials, while the
disappearance of the blue gave us
little better than a chance reac
tion. The latter indicated that of
the two lights, blue is he stronger
stimulus, and that there is a low
degree of sensitivity to red. The
only way I can explain their evi
4 dent conception of the latter color
is to compare it to our reaction to
objects on a foggy day. If we
look carefully, we can see certain
dim figures. However, we have a
tendency to ignore them unless
our attention is attracted."
May Be Contribution.
While this series of experiments
may not seem very important to
the lay reader. Dr. Walton believes
that they may contribute in a very
real measure to the future etudy
of color responses in animals.
This work revealed that al
though cats are generally consid-
ered to be more versatile than
rats, and more agile than dogs, it
is doubtful whether they live as
long in traffic as it is fifteen times
as difficult for them to respond to
red, as it is for either raU or dog.
No Uncomfortable High Collars, or
Stiff -Bosomed Shirts Need Be Worn
To Informal Mid-Year Frolic Feb. 2
No uncomfortable high collar, no crinkled stiff-Womed
shirts at least for one evening. It'll the second annual Mid
year Frolic, scheduled for Saturday evening, Feb. 2, in the
Coliseum. Of course, those who prefer to wear formals and
tuxen way do ko. but the main objective of the party is to
provide an intermission in theo
formal season.
"It's the chance of ft life-time for
all those fellows who've been miss
ing all the good parties because
they can't dress up in . the proper
formal apparel," stated Jack
Fischer, member of Sigma Delta
Cbi, men's professional Journalistic
fraternity which is sponsoring the
affair. "Every fellow who has
been longing for a chance to take
bis best "gal" to a really fine
party must not pass up this fine
opportunity."
Not only will the frolic b a re
laxation from the constant round
of formal parties, but there is an
added incentive. according to
Bruce Nicoll, president of Sigma
Delta Chi. that the party comes
between semesters at a time when
there is no studying to be done by
anyone. "Surely this factor alone
should bring a great number ot
students to the party," Nicoll
stated.
Signing Ralph Bennett aai his
band, of nationally famous record
ing and broadcasting fame, to fur
nish music for the affair is cer
tainly another important incentive
to bigger and better attendance
at this inauguration of joumalUtic
fraternity members. Bennett comes

CHOICE 'BONERS' SPICE
U. of C. Professors Compile
List of Examination
Answers.
BERKELEY, Calif., Jan. 21.
(CNS). Avid university professors
the country over annually face the
job of correcting final "exams"
with a bit of spice in view that
they may find some choice "boner"
in the papers worthy of repeating
in faculty meetings.
University of California profes
sors got together recently and
compiled these undergraduate tid
bits: "The poet Daniel compares his
love for Delia to a half-blown
nose."
"Daisy Miller's greatest misfor
tune in life was to have an affair
with the Collosseum in Rome."
"She was equally gracious to
fools as to her own husband."
"The mould of a man's fortune
is in his own hands."
"The poem was written at the
time Darwinism and Biology were
first started."
"Bacon says studies are of no
use unless they are put to some
use."
"The Lotus Eaters ate of the
lotus bugs and became lazy and
sleepy."
"The men were tossed and bat
tered into unconscientiousness."
"Romeo refused to fight because
he had just been married to Ty
balt's cousin and it is not natural
for a man to pick a quarrel or take
one up after such circumstances."
So much for the outstanding
contributions of university English
students. The astronomy depart
ment also had its problems, includ
ing the following answers:
"The moon is a good example of
"Altitude may be found by using
a sexton."
"One unit of interstellar distance
is the parson."
"A refractor is subject to
chronic apparitions."
"We use the telescope to get
better visions of certain obstacles."
"Time is observed with transient
instruments."
"The earth is the body upon
which we live and spend most of
our time."
The author of the latter un
doubtedly is an aviation enthusiast,
or possibly a flag-pole sitter, de
partment beads surmised.

Nebraska One Eleven States to Spend
$70 to $90 on Each
National Education Office
Complies Figures
For 1932.
According to figures just com
piled by the United States office of
education, on the basis of the 1932
school year, approximately $73 to
S90 is spent on the education or
every child in the state of Wiscon
sin. Ten other states in the country
spend the same amount, and it is
the amount spent by the largest
number of states. The other states
are Oregon, Idaho, New Mexico,
North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas,
Missouri, Indiana, Maryland and
Vermont,
The lowest amount of money
used for educational purposes is in
the south where the average is
from $31 to $50. Included among
these states are Arkansas, Louis
iana, Mississippi, Alabama, Geor
gia, Tennessee, Kentucky, South
Carolina, North Carolina and Vir
ginia. This sum does not approach the
national average cost of $87.67.
However, the office of education
points out that the fuel expendi
ture is extremely low due to the
warm winters, thus reducing the
cost per student. Nevertheless, the
same winter conditions exist in
California, a state which spends
$139.30 per child.
Perhaps a more important factor
in bringing down the average of
the southern states is the lower
standard of negro education. His
schooling costs even less than the
low average cited, whil the white
child's education costs more.

California are Nevada, New York,
and New Jersey.
Of the remaining twenty-three
states, six, Utah, Oklahoma, Texas,
West Virginia, Maine and Florida,
spend from $56 to $70 per child;
seven, Washington, South Dakota,
Minnesota, towa, Ohio, Pennsyl
vania and New Hampshire spend
from $91 to $99.
The last ten states are above the
$100 mark, expending from $102 to
$116. These states are Arizona,
Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, Il
linois, Michigan, Delaware, Rhode
Island, Massachusetts and Connec
ttcut.
Aside from the solid south, high
and low school expenditures follow
no clear geographic divisions. For
example, Utah, which spends on
the average of $63.90, is only
across the border from Nevada,
which has an average of $141.01.
