Society Finds
Newspaper Two
Centuries Old
Recently discovered In the
vaults of the State Historical so
ciety was a 200 year old newspa
per, which was printed in York,
England by John Gilfillan, in 1774.
The paper, which was sold under
the title head of the "York Cour-
ant," was printed, with the old
English type, on very heavy pa
per, and was as well-preserved as
the present-day newspaper is after
a month.
Presented to the university by
Dr. Charles E. Bessey, former
chancellor, in 1888, the paper bore
the date "Jan. 21, 1734-1735." The
paper, published by Joseph Ad
dington, of York, England, con
tained numerous advertisements,
but was composed chiefly of edi
torial comment and individual con
tributions.

Decision in Tuesday
Afternoon Game.
TRIMBLE HITS HOME RUN
A barrge of hits including a
home run by Trimble and a triple
by Gibbs gave the Scarlet Varsity
a 12-4 decision over the Reserve
nine in a four Inning fracas Tues
day afternoon.
The Regulars collected nine hits,
three of which were made by Jerry
Hansen who had a perfect day
with the stick, and seven walks to
push the dozen runs across the
plate.
Beckman clouted a homer for
the yearlings with two men on to
drive three runs across, but Car
sten fanned five batsmen to keep
all but one other runner from
scoring.
Don Graham lacked as much
control as Wild Bill Hallahan, is
suing seven passes to first which
caused a large part of the damage.
However, he nearly equaled the
walks with six whiffs.
Today's game will see a pitch
ing duel between two left-handers,
Jerry Spurlock and Bob Joyce.

Cats, Rats, Play
Important Part
In Science Tests
White raU, mottled cats, hooded
rats, and black cats! They are all
a part or tnis tning Known as
higher education, and are housed
in cages on the third floor of So
cial Science annex. There is, of
course, a purpose for all this seem
ingly facetious behavior on the
part of students and faculty mem
bers in a great educational institu
tion, psychological experimenta
tion. These animals, which are used
for experiments by members of the
psychology department, need have
no fer of traps of poison, as do
their common brothers, for they
arc cared for and fed as regularly
as the best of pets.
coier Experiment,
An experiment on color precep-
tion Is now under way in which
the cats are placed In a large,
darkened box with lfferent colored
lights at the extreme end. When
the cat approaches a light he is re-

coming over to block a white-clad
turned to the man conducting the
experiment, Is fed a piece of meat,
and is returned to the box to re
peat the experiment. The results
of each trial are tabulated and the
experiment repeated scores of
times a day. The object is to train
the animal to return to the light,
whatever color it may be.
Psychology students, in the
course of an experiment, actually
become quite attached to these
animals, treating the white, pink
eyed, little creatures with the best
of care and carrying them non
chalantly on their shoulders from
the testing apparatus to their
cages. So careful is one student
even, that he wears gloves when
handling his pet cat in order not
to contaminate it.
Rats Made Pets.
It is not an unusual sight to see
a student strolling down the hall
with a gigantic rat perched on his
shoulder. Strange as it may seem,
the rat cages are placed but a few
feet from the enclosure in which
the cats are kept. The cats spent
the time not used in running ex
periments looking at the many
rats wistfully, while the rats
seem absolutely assured of their
security and cast back scornful
gazes.
This is an impossibility, or at
least, an improbability, but im
agine the terror that would reign
upon the campus, if some fresh
man not yet entirely devoid of his
high school frivility should one
day open the door to one of these
cages, unknowingly, of course?

which required two separate bal
lots. In the debate senate, two dif
ferent committees prepared re
ports, just as committees do in
congress, which were presented to
the assembly from the floor.
Three questions were used dur
in the current season, concerning
the international shipment of
munitions, the abandonment of the
federal agricultural adjustment
program, and feedral educational
grants to states. The AAA dispute
proved to be the most :nterestir:g
and least onesided, the educational
question next, and the arm debate
the most unbalanced and one-sided
question treated in years, accord
ing to Professor White.
Radio Debates.
Six of this year's thirty-eight de
bates were broadcast over radio
stations; eleven were given before
various college audiences; three
before clubs; five in high school
assemblies, and two before debat
ing classes on the campus. Doane
college furnished an innovation
when they asked for a split team
discussion, each college furnishing
one speaker for each side. This de
bate was held before the entire
Doane student body at the chapel
assembly.
Nebraska was unable to accept
several other invitations this year,
because of the lack of time in the
schedule. In the current slate,
every variety of debate known at
tne present lime waa inea save
one or two exceptions, the out
standing one being the common
decision debate. Over 4,500 persons
witnessed these debates, and from
the point of view of public inter
est, the least successful were held
on the Nebraska campus.
White Receives Letters.
Flashbacks from the current
season Include: An editorial in the

In the Debater Annual, a refer

COLLEGE CREW Ml
LD TRIP SAILBOAT
Fifteen Students Find Time
For Studying on Ocean
Tour.
(By Associated College l'rehs.)
DURBAN, Natal, March. 26
"Manned" by a crew of pretty
American college girls and a num
ber of college boys, the little 100
ton schooner Yankee this week
was reported to have passed Dur
ban on its way around the world.
The Yankee belongs to Capt
Irving Johnson, of Springfield,
Mass., and he is sailing around the
world with this party of young
Americans, who have elected to
"finish off their education" cruis
ing over the seven seas.
The students number fifteen,
and when they left Massachusetts
they all signed on as members of
the crew, each paying part of the
expenses of the trip. They all take
their turn at the wheel.
Dr. Rufus Southworth, who is
traveling with the party, said that
there were no organized classes on
board. "But it is surprising how
much we are learning," he added.
"There is only one stern rule,"
he said, "and that is about the
clothes worn at meal times. The
men can go about in nothing but
shorts all day if they like, but they
must wear a 'top' of some sort at
meals."
They have already visited Suva,
New Hebrides, where they landed
on islands still inhabited by canni
bals, and after sailing; across the
South China sea they reached
Bangkok, where some of the party
travelled inland to see the recently
discovered temples in French Indo
China. Their route then took them to
Singapore, Batavia, Java and Co
cos islands, after which they pro
ceeded to Durban via Mauritius.

From the barber chair to the class

to school. Because the school is
some distance from their home the

ceives his board and room in re
turn for his services as chauffeur.
"Watch repairing of all kinds."
That is the advertisement of the
campus watch repairer, Alvin
Kleeb, whose establishment is at
1507 R St. He finds time to be ac
tive in extracurricular circles as
well as to doctor broken timepieces
and carry an average number of
university courses.
There are hundreds of examples
to be seen near the university
campus where enterprising stu
dents are lightening the financial
load of their college career. Piano
tuning helps to keep Frank An
drews, jr., 2501 Q St.. in the uni
versity. Vernon Schwier, 1432 Q
St., is a textile cutter. Henry
Bauer, 1531 A St., is a shoe re
pairer. Dan BiHh, 3445 X St., and
Harold F. Hoppe, 2303 Harrison
St., do sign painting on the side.
Stanley Reese, 1305 H St., does
furniture upholstering, and Hugh
Foster, 6113 Cleveland Ave., and
Burkett Reynolds, "939 Stratford
Ave., have their own radio repair
shops.
The Jobs held Dy women stu
dents are a little less ingenious
than those of the men. Sales
women, secretaries, house workers,
are all numbered among the ranks
of the employed women. Several
girls lighten their expenses oy
doing a little more than their bit
of work around the cooperative
houses of the university in which
they live.
The old tneory or waiung ror
the college d'ploroa before begin
ning to work seems to De cos
proved. The 1935 Nebraska stu
dent, unlike Jack of maxim fame,
is putting forth more work, taking
less play, and still is not the dull

Ray Ebllng, Kansas' great bas
ketball forward, probably would
rather play ball at Norman, Okl.,
than on his home maples at Law
rence. In 1933 and 1934 the slim
Jayhawk sharp-shooter scored
seventy-two points in four games
on the Sooner court. That's an av
erage of eighteen points a game
some tall shootin'l Ebling has also
hit the hoop for twenty-two points
on twenty-three gift shots, an ex
cellent achievement.
Baseball, outdoor track, tennis,
and golf remain to be heard from
on the Big Six spring schedule,
but right now Kansas States is
leading the pack in the conference
all sports table with 14 1-2 points.
Oklahoma's Sooners trail by a
point, 15 1-2, while Nebraska holds
down the third berth on a 20 point
rating. The Wildcats have hung up
two conference championships in
their Manhattan trophy cases
football and indoor track.
Harry Broadbent, Oklahoma
wrestler, had the novel experience
of losing a bout in the recent Big
Sig tournament at Ames, la,, de
spite the fact that he had 5 min
utes 15 seconds time advantage.
The referee, who was well within
the rules and his rights, decided
Broadbent's opponent had showed
superior aggressiveness and wrest
ling skill. By the way, before we
forget, Broadbent is rather an ap
propriate name for a wrestler,
isn't it?
Oklahoma college and high
school basketball coaches believe
the present basketball rules should
not be changed until both players
and patrons thoroly digest them.
Hugh McDermott, Sooner mentor
and representative on the National
Basketall Coaches association
rules committee, made a poll of
twenty coaches at the state high
school basketball finals at Okla
homa City and learned that they
would like things left just as they
are, for awhile at least. Of the
score interviewed, all but one fav
ored retention of the center jump
and moving backboards four feet
inside the playing surface instead
of two feet as they are now. The
three-second rule on post plays
within the free throw lane was
satisfactory to the majority, the
only doubt being the varying
lengths of the officials count,
which is always questionable when
there is a count. Also, the ma
jority was satisfied with the pres
ent height of the baskets and size
of the goals, and opposed to taking
time outs after all goals.
A 51 yard field goal from place
ment by Jack Baer, Oklahoma
frosh quarterback in the final
spring practice football game of
the year, is believed the longest
ever made at Owen field. How
ever, the longest ever kicked at
Norman waa the 55 yard drop kick
propelled between the old wooden
crossbars of old Boyd field back
in 1917 by Arthur "Dutch"
Strauss, fullback of the Phillips
university eleven of Knid.
The Oklahoma track team cap
tured a Wildcat the other day, but
turned it loose after clothing it in
Sooner spangles and chasing it
around the cinder track. The
Wildcat was Al Worrel, Kansas
State quarter-miler, who stopped
off at Norman for a workout on
his way home from an intercolle
giate debate in Texas. Coach Tohn
Jacobs of the Sooners outfitted
Worrel and put him through a
workout before sending him home
to Coach Wi-rd Haylett at Man
hattan, Kansas.
Scholarship pays. Vivien Neme
cek, Oklahoma football player, has
found out. He was presented with
a gold wrist watch for making the
highest grades on the Sooner fros.t
football squad. Maybe these ath
letes are taking time off from
football for studies nowadays.
Bud Browning, Oklahoma's all
Big Six basketball guard the past
three years, was recently named
on an All-Western five selected by
60 college basketball coaches. Ray
Ebling, Kansas forward, made an
All-American five chosen in the
same poll.

STRIKE AT HELL WEEK
Doctors Say Frat Probation
Results in Physical and
Mental Injury.
ANN ARBOR. Mich. Hell
Week, already the target for many
criticisms because or us extreme
practices, was attacked here by
two physicians connected with the
University of Michigan on the
grounds that tne period was pnysi
cally and mentally harmful to the
initiates.
Dr. H. Marvin Pollard, acting
president physician of the .Univer
sity of Michisran hospital, declared
that "We have come into contact
with several serious cases here at
the university hospital as a result
of maltreatment during fraternity
initiations, and I am personally ac
quainted with one or two instances
at other institutions which resulted
in permanent injury and even
death."
"The mental effect upon the
man must be considered equally as
important as the physical one, and
complete mental collapse is not an
uncommon result of an extremely
trying Hell Week. Such a collapse
may easily leave a lasting eiiecc
on the man." Dr. Pollard said.
Dr. Theophile Raphael, psychiat
rist to the health service, stated
that he was opposed to Hell Week
because "for individuals who are
delicately balanced emotionally,
and who have narrower man aver
age physical limits, Hell weeK
practices are dangerous, u is noi
only a question of humiliation but
also of physical strain."
Hell Week is too primitive, ac-onrrfino-
to Dr. Rarjhael. "We are
