Curator Becomes Satirical; Shows Botanical Treasures Max Schiller, philosopher, humorist, and university horti culturist violated one of the better known phases of the um written law yesterday after noon between four and five o'clock. In fact, Max completely ignored one of the fundamental principles by which human conduct is di rected. Max, who spends most of bis time in the campus gTeenhouse, disregarded the adage, "People In glass houses shouldn't throw stones " Spoke the copy hunting journal ist as he entered the glass struc ture: "Are you boss here?" Answered grisled. sparkling eyed old Max, "No, I'm just the football in this sunlight stadium, and I get kicked around plenty." Queried the news scribe again, "And who are the players In this game?" "You and your kind, swaggering young strlbllngs that haven't any doubt that they are the cream of the nation's crop," retorted Max. It seemed that the curator wasn't as sore as he was satirical. When asked If he had . anything around bis diggings that might not INT 65 REPORTERS TO Assignments Are Subject to Revision in Two Weeks.

"Reporters should remember," Miss Selleck stated, "that the as signments are only temporary and will be revised not before one week and not later than two weeks from now. Any reporter who does not cover his beats adequately will relinquish his place on the staff." Because of the exceptionally large number of students who ap plied for positions on the staff it was not possible to form a definite opinion of the individual work. There are several duplications in the list because there are not enough beats for the number of students who have applied. Anyone who has applied for. a beat and whose name does not appear on the list should see one of the managing editors. Every reporter is expected to attend the newswriting classes that are held every Friday afternoon at 3 in the basement of U hall. If it is im possible to attend, reporters should notify the managing editor before the class and arrange to secure the instruction at some other time. - See Desk Man. Those who are assigned to sports, feature, society and wo men's staff should see the man aging editors to get their assign ments.

However, after voicing such opinions as "students are too full of wise cracks to speak correct English'" and "high school stu dents can't spell worth a damn," Max said. "Sure I got a lot of in teresting things around here." Max led the botanically ignorant reporter thru his dank smelling rooms filled to Jungle denseness with plants, vines, trees, crawlers, creepers, sneakers. In short, his vegetably over-populated palace of living things. At the outset be said, "Plants are just like people, they respond to care, they want to be fondled."

Art Department Shows Paintings By 'Prospectors1 The 'exhibition on view this month in Gallery A of Morrill Hall which is kept for loan collections is by the "Prospectors," a group of artists who have banded them selves together because of their common interests, and who live in Boulder, Colo. Most of them have been on the faculry of the Uni versity of Colorado at some time during their careers. Many of them have received na tional recognition in art circles. Miss Sibell, who has several sketches in the collection, was awarded first prize in the Na tional Association of Women Painters last year for the best water color by a woman. Several of the other members of the Pros pectors have painted pize-winning pictures. There are paintings in oil, water color, and tempera represented in the collection, and sketches in various mediums. Widely diversi fied subjects sre treated in the gallery. "This gallery is a particularly refreshing one," states Mr. Dwight Kirsch, chairman of the fine arts department. "One seldom finds a group of pictures so universally characterized by the boldness of outline and choice of subject material as that in evidence here. These artists do not use the com mon 'pretty scenery.' Rather, their work is done strongly and utilizes bolder, heavier logics. We wish the students and population In general would take more of an interest in these exhibitions. This one by the Prospectors will be here until Nov. 1 and the gallery is open every day from 8 to 5 and Sunday from 2 to 5."

Any group may secure the service of the orchestra in accompanying their act. "In selecting the theater, there was little choice," Garlow asserted, "since the Stuart has the only stage and auditorium in Lincoln that will accommodate the show and a university crowd. From these two viewpoints, the show will be the most successful and enter taining in years." Another feature of the Fall Kosmet Show, presentation of Ne braska's 1935 Sweetheart, will soon overshadow other prepara tions for the performance. Filing dates for the traditional election will probably be announced by the Student Council after meeting this week. The Magee Cup, awarded annually to the group presenting the best skit during the show, will either be replaced by two separate cups for the winning fraternity and sorority, or will be inscribed with two winners this year in ac cordance with the new university ruling.
