Dean Hosp
Dean's survey shows
prisoners are students
Speaking before the first fall
meeting of Phi Beta Kappa last
nierht in the Union Miss Helen
Hosp, dean of women, presented a
ten year summary or adult cduca'
tion in penal institutions. Miss
Hosp emphasizv.1 the great ad
vances that have been made in ad
justment of prisoners for outside
life, and the work of universities
in this line of education
Dean Hosp traced the various
means available to prison Inmates
prison schools, libraries, educa
tion in shop work, and most im
portant, correspodence courses,
These correspondence courses are
the most feasible means or educa
tion for penal institutions, Miss
Hosp believes, as they helped men
prepare themselves for social uv
in? when released, and also pre
pared them to earn their liveli
hoods. Miss Hosp cited a study which
she made in New York prisons
proving the value of correspond
ence courses, and quoted numer
ous letters she received in the
course of this study. She found
when comparing scholastic records
made in this type or worK or men
in prisons and of those who are
free, that the prison inmates had
made far better records.
More prisoner study now
This she believes due to the
counseling system which attended
these projects, and guidance and
help given in personal interview
bv orison authorities.
During the last ten years, the
number of prisoners studying these
courses has greatly Increased.
Dean Horn also lauded the unl
versities for their co-operation in
nrr-n.n-imr and offering .these
courses. She particularly mention
ed the Universities of Wisconsin
and California, and told of the
work Nebraska is doing along this
line.

son as Missouri beat them 9-7.
The Tigers piled up 9 points, then
the Wildcats scored their touch
down on a disputed pass play in
the final quarter. Hackney will be
unable to play against Nebraska.
Good passing
The Huskers showed that their
passing attack was gone but not
forgotten in the Minnesota and
Iowa State games as they put on
an aerial display that gave the
southwesteiners something to
write about. Passes from Herman
Rohrig to Ray Prochaska scored
two touchdowns, while Bob Lud-
wick slipped as he was ready to
catch another Rohrig pass which
had had the touchdown label on
it. Nebraska's running attack was
driving through the big Baylor
line, too, and the forward wall,
although outweighed, held the
Bears to 61 net yards, both
through rushing and passing.

The Husfters are once more up
in the select group of the coun
try's football teams, and if they
keep playing like they did Satur
day they'll still be up there for a
while. The Nebraska team won
the game, and the good old sta
tistics, too; and they out-dazzled
Baylor on the ground and in the
air, and all along the line.
But Kansas State, who persists
In pestering the Huskers is in a
swell spot for the Wildcats, that
is. If Nebraska runs true to form,
the Huskers will be a little "down'
next Saturday, and Kansas State
even without Elmer Hackney, will
be laying in wait for the game just
like Iowa State was.
However, Nebraska has the
stuff to win, and if they do well
the next game is Missouri with
Paul Chnstman and the next is
Kansas on Homecoming Day and
the next is with a team named
Pitt, and the next one with the
Oklahoma Sooners.
And while speaking of the Soon
ers, sports editor Clavelle Holden
in his story of the Oklahoma-K. U
battle in the Daily Kansan called
them "Biff Jones' defending cham
pions, the Sooners." Heaven for
bid I
Charley Brock, we see, inter-
cepted another enemy pass to set
up the pins for a Green Bay Pa ck
ers touchdown. . .it was against
Detroit's Lions Sunday and Brock
ran 20 yards with it to the Pack
ers' 21... Lee Seeman, George's
little brother, is a substitute center
at Santa Clafa... Fred Meier ap
pears on both ends of that long
squad picture which decorates so
many down-town windows... he
was at the right end of the group,
and after the panoramic lens cam
era had got his picture, he ran
around back of the cameraman
and got in line at the other end. . .
the grins on the faces of Hermie
Rohrig and Harry Hopp who are
standing near Meier on the left
end help tell the story.
It's a little late, but it still
sounds funny... Jack "Bucket"
Warner, writing in the Denver
Clarion, said after watching the
Minnesota-Nebraska game that he
had come to the conclusion that
Rocky Mountain football was as
good as that played by the big
name teams, and better in some
respects. . .says the punting in the
Denver-New Mexico game was
better. . .that's all very sweet, but
listen to what he says is the ONLY
difference In the type of play
it's the blocking and tackling
which he says is "absolutely vi
clous, and timed to the split sec
ond"...for that matter, when it
comes down to the final analysis,
that was probably the main dif
ference between Michigan and
Chicago Saturday.

Ag boys win as Davis
intercepts pass, tallies
Fitzgibbon converts

yesterday was the Farmhouse 7-6
victory over Delta Tau Delta in
league IV. The Farmhouse touch
down was scored by Norman Davig
who intercepted a pass and ran
about 50 yards for a touchdown;
John Fitzgibbon kicked the win
ning point. The Delts score came
when they blocked a kick In the
enemy end zone.
Also In league IV was the Alpha
Tau Omega-Zeta Beta Tau game,
which the Alph's won by a 13-0
score. It was Bob Jungman that
gave the victors their first score
with Sid White kicking the extra
point, bod James who received a
pass from Sid White went across
the double stripe for the last 6
points.
Little "Whizzcr" Mack went on
a scoring spree in Kappa Sigma's
25-0 blackout of Acacia. Mack
accounted for two Kappa Sigma's
25-0 blackout of Acacia. Mack
accounted for two tallies, both on
end runs. Rothwcll and Seimson
caught a pass apiece for the other
counters.
In league I of Barb football,
Brown Palace bowed to the Com
manders to a 15-0 score. Blaine
Lord who shined in the game made
both touchdowns, one being made
in the last 5 seconds of the last
quarter. A pass from Lord to Hugh
McKenna accounted for the extra
point after the first touchdown.
Two more points came when the
Palace team was deep In their own
territory and a bad pass from cen
ter went across the end zone which
made an automatic safety.
