Their deciease percentage WATCH THISSPACE This notice will continue to appear every Friday on this page Watch for !t Free meal Sunday evening to BOB SIMMONS and Lady Friend at Beaumont's 226 8o. 12th E4040 To the Editor: I wrts pleased Ht (he recent de cision of the university board in regard to the use of student activ ity tickets. Their ruling is fair and was called for. Selleck can tell you that dramatic appeals were made by forgotten men lust year when tickets run out before all the students could satisfy them selves, their great aunts, and pre historic uncles. The only person who will he able to use these activity tickets will he the actual purchasers, towit, the students. That is the purpose of the special rate, a benefit to the student in regard to admission to athletic events; not as a menus of allowing individuals who dislike football to hook some one who does at his expense resulting in a few dollars profit to the owner. Prior to this time, it has been a common practice for a student to purchase an activity ticket, go to one or two games, and then allow a friend, relative, or a stranger to attend a like number while the student sat In the hleaehers with the rest of thp kids. Hence the student's cost was lessened by his selling the first three tickets before one of his close relatives forgot to return the book. The student was satisfied, he had seen two games from the knothole and so was tired of foot hall. The number of persons at tending even the major games was correspondingly laised: peo ple began sitting on each other's laps when the aisles were full. Thp board does realize that the majority of students in the uni versity are not of the "velvet" variety. If you are broke, that makes two of us. Because of this known fact, the board charges six dollars for a book which would cost fifteen if the tickets were purchased separated. If they thought we all had sufficient money to buy whatever we de sired then they could raise the ante to ten or twelve dollars and we would for the most part get them since we do desire them for at least the first two games. The school makes enough money from the football team so that they don't need any more. Their interest is to sell students' tickets for the use of students by the same students who buy them. I couldn't get enough connec tion between the big words in the next paragraph to even hazard an opinion. But I'll try. Isn't this world a place for de mocracy and not feudalism.

This course is for the most outstanding social science stu dents. Professors Walter R. Sharp and GrajNon L. Clark of the Wisconsin political department and Chester Lloyd Jones of the economics de partment have established several new sequences of at tidies, under the general heading. International Relations. "Although the requirements for admission and survival are rather severe and not designed to in terest great numbers of students, we trust that a sufficient quantity of talented, capable applicants will be attracted. The new major is designed to hind together the vari ous social sciences into several well integrated divisions: prepara tion for entrance into the Foreign Service, seeking positions with ex porting or importing firms, ship ping companies, International banking houses, or the foreign press services." This was the state ment made by Professor Sharp concerning the course. Many Subjects. Only candidates who have a two point average for their first two years in the Arts college are ad mitted. Political .science, econom ics, commerce and history form the major bulk of the curricula, while related fields, such as anthropol ogy, geography, geology, journal ism, philosophy, sociology and so cial phychology will also be in cluded. This program is quite flex ible and allows for numerous changes and additions according to the needs and inteiests of the in dividual students. Some of Amer ican government and politics, world politics, general economics, STUDENT DIRECTORY NEARS COMPLETION With work on the student and faculty directory for 1938-33 nearing completion, the book should be on the sales stands by the last of October, stated C. D. Hayes, secretary of the University Y. M. C. A. The last of the student names are now being checked, and faculty names are already in the hands of the printers. and a history of the United States, are required. One of the suggested curricula is ti:e preparation for the Ameri can Foreign Services. This may lead toward a position on the diplo matic or consular staffs, tariff commission, commerce division, customs and many other positions in the federal government. In political science, commerce, eco nomics, history, geography and geology various subjects most closely related to the major arc pursued. In this manner, along with basic language and gateway requirements, the students are pre pared for service in their various fields.

A Concert Scries Needs Support Students May Hear Artists ot Low Rate I Upon the purchase of tickets hv i University depends the fate of the j Lincoln Symphony series for this winter, according to news received today. Altho the orchestra board was to have met yesterday to de cide the future of the organization, no official action has yet been taken on the matter. It has been necessary in past years to sell at least 1,000 general admissions and 500 student tickets to assure the success of the ven ture. This year, however, altho the student ticket purchases have reached their usual level, there has been a falling off in the number of general tickets disposed of, and the rate of sale has also decreased. Miss Elizabeth Tierney, in charge of the student ticket sales, has stated that the talent secured for this year's concert Reries Is far su perior to any previously scheduled. In spite of this, the price rms riot been raised, and student tickets may still bo obtained for $3.50 at Miss Tierney's office, 213 Marrill hall. UNION GRMAPjj (Continued from Page 1.)

Three weeks of intensive drill and scrimmage have molded the Husker squad into one of the finest football units in the country, of that fans can be sure.
