Citing the historical background to economics, Marburg plans to explain Sombart's theory of a practical approach to the study of the subject.

Bare predicts hopper scourge Entomologist says '39 insect crop hatching Warning that Nebraska's 1939 grasshopper "crop" is just begin ning to hatch was sounded by O. S. Bare, extension ent omologist at the ag college. An- other week of favorable weather, he pointed out, will permit the an nual insect scourge to be in full- sway. Two species of the hoppers, mi gratory and striped, are hatching out in light and dry soils and in protected locations. "Most counties will not need to do any poisoning before May 20 but we must be prepared to start control operations as soon as the need arises." Bate sail. With the hopper hatching starting, the state leader in the grasshopper in the control campaign said that plans are now complete for combatting the pests. There is enough federal poison to start the season's ac tivity in three-fourths of Nebras ka's counties and orders were placed late last week for 22. more carloads. Collegians favor McNutt over Dewey in White House AUSTIN, Texas, May 9. American college youth picked a new number one presidential' pos sibility in their own poll, the Student Opinion Surveys of America. He is Democrat Paul V. McNutt, 48-year-old high comis sioner to the Phillipines and for mer college professor, whose White House boom has been one of the first to get under way. Running a close second in the favor of the nearly one and a half million college students was the even more youthful Thomas E. Dewey, the 37-year-old Repu blican district attorney of New York. A striking peculiarity of col lege youth's habits discovered in this survey is the fact that not only do Republican students often favor Democratic candi dates and vice versa, but nearly a third claim no allegiance whatever to either of the major parties. Of that third only very few declared themselves prefer ring any party. Using the question, "If Roose- Claudine Burt presents dramatic recital Thursday Claudine Burt, senior in the de partment of speech, will present her senior dramatic recital tomor row night at 7:30 o'clock in Tem ple theater. She will present an arrangement of J. Hartley Man ners "Peg 'O My Heart." The re cital is open to the public. There is no admission charge. velt is not a candidate in 1940, whom would you like to see elected president?" interviewers for the surveys queried a cross section of the nation's collegiate population which included students of all age, sex, study, geogra phical and political groupings. Making no separation of Repu blican, Democratic or independent students, the survey lists the fol lowing as leading choices for the 1940 elections: 1. Paul V. McNutt (D)...17.7 2. Thomas E. Dewey (R)..15.6 3. John N. Garner (D)....9.7 4. Cordell Hull (D) 8.3 5. Fiorello La Guardia (R).4.5 6. Arthur H. Vandenberg (R) 3.8" 7. Robert' Taft (R) . .2.2 8. William Borah (R) 2.1 9. Harry L. Hopkins (D)...1.3 10. Phil La Follette (Prog). .1.1 All others and undecided 33 Communist Earl Browder was mentioned by only 0.28 per cent, and Socialist Norman Thomas but by 0.39 per cent. The popularity of the former Indiana governor with American college students may be attri buted to several factors, (1) his supporters have started a boom calling him a "conservative liber al," which happens to be in keep ing with the collegiate sentiment that has been shown in other surveys, (2) McNutt forces have been among the first actively to bid for support, and (3) he has been affiliated with education as a professor and dean of the Indi ana university law school.
