GREIGHTON UNIVERSITY RAISING
82,000,000 FDR EXPANSI0H
Four New Buildings and a Concrete Athletic
Stadium To Be Erected.
reverend john f. mccormick announces big
e:pansion campaign.
Creighton University, one of the
best known and strongest Universities
In the Missouri Valley, today an
nounced its plans for a $2,0 H).0K) ex
pansion cainpaiim to le conducted In
February 1023. $1.0(X,(00 will be ex
pended for the construction of four
new buildings and an athletic Ftadium.
New Buildings Badly Needed.
' The completion of this building pro
pram will enable both the Arts College
and the High School to take care of
double their present enrollment, in
addition to enlarging the facilities in
the professional schools.
The balance of the $2,000,000 to be
raised will be used for endowment to
provide income to carry on the ex
panded university work.
The plans of the campaign were
announced Saturday by the Reverend

John F. McCormick, President of the
University.
Progress Increases Responsibility.
In speaking of the necessity for
further expansion, Father McCormick
aid:
"From our unpretentious beginning
hack in 1S7S, when the highest class
on the campus was the "Sixth Bead
er" class, Creighton has emerged a
strong institution of university rank
with complete preparatory, under
graduate and professional courses,
each one of which is rated "Class A"
by the highest educational authori
ties. "Creighton University Is r.ni apply
ing for funds to reduce indebtedness
or to increase salaries. Its student
body has simply outgrown its present
facilities and the present college
buildings are no longer adequate to
give the service demanded.
1007c Growth In Five .Years.
"In the year 191C there were ?4
students. Last year's enrollment
totaled 10SS an increase ef more
than KX In five years.
"The endowment fund established
by the Creighton family was more
than adequate In 191C to care for all
of the needs of the University. Our
8tudent-body however Las more than
doubled within the past five years
l'i."

and the demands made upon our in
come have increased accordingly.
Our endowment funds have cot been
Increased by any new bequests dar
ing this period.
Two Million Needed.
"X minimum of 2,000,000 must
be raised to take care of the im
mediate needs. We are confronted
with the necessity of beginning a
building program Immediately which
will require $1,000,000 In Itself.
"The old Administration buildin?
occupied by the Liberal Arts College
and High School, has become increas
ingly inadequate during the past five
years. Each year we have been
bilged to turn away hundreds of
ittndents who sought admission into
the College of Liberal Arts and into
the High School. In accordance with
the desires of Edward and Count
Creighton these departments have
made no tuition charge so that even
the poorest boy might obtain a hlgh
ebool and even a college education.
Make Room For More Students.
Our first and most immediate
need, therefore, is a new class-room
building for the Liberal Arts College.
This will permit the High School to
occupy the entire Administration
Building and will more than double
its capacity.
"Our second need is a new Chemis
try building.
"The third building required is a
new college Dormitory. The present
Dormitory provides accommodations
for about eighty students. Between
one-half and two-thirds tf our studeui
body enrollment at Creiirhton comes
from outside of Omaha, and it is our
duty to provide dormitory accommo
dations for at least one hundred more
men under the supervision of the
University.
New Athletic Stadium to Seat 7,58).
"The erection of the new college
i
buildings will doom the old football
held. The new field will parallel
Burt Street between 25th and 27th.
We must erect a modern, steel and
concrete stadium for our new athletic
field.
"The fifth structure to be erected
as a result of the campaign, is the
new Medical College. The new
'. Medical Building will be erected ".
I a site adjacent to St. Joseph's EIcs-
pital in order to give the students of
the Medical College better clinical
facilities and center their Instruction
and clinical practice in one locality.
"The building prorram which I have
outlined," jidde-1 Father McCortr.Ick,
"lias been estimated by the architects
to cost one million dollars. Every
one of the buildings is badly needed.
Endowment Inadequate.
"The new buildings will provide
the facilities we need, but without
additional endowment we would be
unable to administer the new expan
sion ; we could not take care of the
increased work of our departments;
nor add the new lay-members of the
faculty required in the professional
schools.
"At the present time our endowment
is ?2S.t,0'X). A comparison of thi
with the endowment of other great
Universities shows how modest It real-
ly is. Elarvard University has an en
dowment of Forty-five Million ; Chi
cago, Thirty Million; Washington Uni
versity of St. Louis ?0i00,0O0. Our
needs were never greater In propor
tion to our income than they are todar.
It Is not desirable to increase tuitlor.i
In our professional schools. We alsr
want to continue to offer free the in
struction in our Liberal Arts College
and our nigh School. There is, there
fore, but one solut'on. We must se
cure additional endowment.
Necessity Compels Appeal.
"Some of my friends have told me
that this is an inopportune time to
ask for money, but we Elmply must
ask for it. We cannot turn student
away in large cumbers every year.
For forty-four years we have worked
in this community. We have become
a part of the life not only of
the State, but the Missouri Valley.
We must do the work which we are
here to do. The State needs educated
men today more than ever before and
It Is our duty end our aim to see that
the State gets such men.
PELICANS' WAYS
"I've been given permission to tell
the story," said Mhsut Brown Pelican.
"There's my cousin. Master White
I'elican, and he'd like to tell it too,
but the keeper said it was fair to let
me tell it. I'm sm'ier :::ui not quite
so beautiful so I have been granted
this favor."
"Fair enrich, fair enough." said
Master U nite Pelican. "Tell the story,
cousin. I'd be glad to hear of myself,
too, for you'll tell of me when you're
telling of pelicans and their ways,
won't you?'
" f course, of course," said Master
Brown IYlican.
"There have been so many s;!!y
rhymes made up about us. People
don't half take us seriously enough.
Now they're so apt to laugh the min
ute they see us," complained Master
While Pelican.
"That is all very true," said M is
ter Brown Pelican. "But still I would
rather have rhymes made up about ::ie
even if they weren't very good than
not to be noticed at all.
"And, dear me, I'd much rather
people laili-'hed v. hen they saw me
than to have them weep at the sight
of me."
"Yes. I'd rather have that, too."
said Master White Pelican.
"I like to think I'm so cheerful Ir.
Hpp'-arance that they feel like laugh
ing." "Well." said Master White IVli-an.
"I suppose it is because of our froat
lone bills or bonks that they latteh
They ate very rAz."
"It is good to have them lone:." said
Master Brown Pelican. "Beside? it i.
well to he generous in things especial
ly in our bills. That is well, indeed."
"Well, indeed." repeated Master
White Pelican.
"Now, Master Brown Pelican." he
added after a moment, "do tell your
story of the way? i f Pelicans."
"You know it all. Master White Pel
ican." "Ah, yes," said Master White Pel
ican. "Bat I think the next best thing
to talkinir about one's self i to lis
ten to so:;-;e one else talking ab'ut
one. If I am n"t to talk about myself
I look forward eagerly to hearing you
talk about me and about yourself,
too," he added. "I.- beuin."
"Well. I will," said Master Brown
I'elican. "And as you have allowed me
"We're Gcoa Fish Eaterc."
to tell the Story I will tell about you
first."
"Kind of you. kind of you," said
Master White Pelican.
"Weil," said Master Brown Pelican.
"I think It is fair that I should be
allowed to tell the story because I'm
smaller, but I don't believe in the
smaller person always having every
thing their own way. The bigger
creature has rights, too."
"You're a fair-minded pelican," said
Master White I'elican. "Now do not
let me detain you in your talking any
more."
"I'll Ug in this moment," said Mas
ter Brown Pelican. "In the first place
my cousin, Master White Pelican, is
one of the largest birds of this con
tinent and the continent has both
South America and North America on
it!
"Master White I'elican has beauti
ful white feathers, as his name tells
you but he is not wrongly named
no, his name is excellent. It just
describes him. lie is as white as white
can be and he is a pelican. His name,
therefore, is perfect anu fits him like
a glove, as the saying goes.
"Or in other words, it's a name that
just fits him ! He has a golden-amber-colored
beak or bill which is truly a
magnificent one. You have a nut
pouch as a pelican should have.
"They say that your family eats as
much fish as the sea lions. In fact
your family are een greater fish
eaters than we are. We're good fail:
eaters, too. We're handsome, sociable,
and enjoy zoo life immensely. Il
agrees with us and we like the care
they take of us. We are at our best
when we're full grown and then we're
at the height of our good looks, too.
"Pelicans have fine pouches and wt
can hold the food there, too. It's like
a private icebox of our own only
there is no ice in it, ha, ha. That's e
good pelican joke."
"Yes." said Mascer White Pelican
"aud all you have to say about pel
leans is true. But let us continue talk
ing another time, for here coaies tht
keeper v, Ith our lunch on of tih."
And all the pelicans rushed towarc
the keeper and opened wide their bin.
fer their beloved and favorite food.
SSIATiG TRIBE KUriTS HEADS
TO INSURE A GOOD HARVEST
Was Believe Seed Grain Must Be
Charmed and Conjured
With Skuiis.
Ralph E. Henderson, a Ilarvard
graduate who has sport the past eight
months traveling in southern Asia, has
just completed a trip through the
British "unndmlnistere i territory" of
northeastern Burma m l Into the Chi
nese province of Yun::".n, neither of
which have been thoroughly explored
by white men.
Among the wild tribes encountered
en this trip were th" head hunting
Was. Hitherto little h been definite
ly known concerning th;- lifw and cus
toms of this tribe, as most lit those
who intruded upon Wu territory failed
to return. The Was do not hunt heads
primarily from canni'.c.listlc motives,
but rather because of t'a"ir belief that
their crops will fail unless some fresh
human skulls are imported every year.
Under this Impressio:. they organize
head-hunting cxpemI,,Ti cvry spring,
and It Is small consolation to the un
fortunate traveler who falls into their
hands that It Is only his skull that la
wanted.
Writing of the wild Was, Mr. Hen
derson says:
"The Was nre especially keen on
hunting heads during February, March
and April just before the planting
season. From the Wa t.ngle of looking
at It the business isn't the madness
we take it to be. It is a convention
and quite us reasonable as afternoon
tea. Evcry decently religious Wa
knows that unless the seed grain is
properly charmed an'! conjured with
a human head the cro;, raised from
it will be a failure. And who wants to
starve? In fact. If worst comes to
worst and there nrr no heads forth
coming from raids on neighbors the
Was prefer to take the head of some
feeble person In the village rather than
run tlie risk of scant crops and conse
quent empty stomachs.
"Ir. February, March and April, then,
the wild Wa men go hunting. Of
course, any head that offers itself to
be collected is regarded as fair game
and it behooves the man working
alone cutting jungle or the woman hoe
ing alone iu the field to be cautious
when the Was are afoet. A common
artifice Is to barricade pome jungle
highway and lie in ambush, some Just
behind the barricade some on either
side, to rush down on the flanks of any
party caught in the trap.
"Deads of men, women and children
over twelve years old are acceptable.
Heads marked with smallpox, for su
perstitious reasons, are not desired.
A successful foray is one which yields
one or more corpses. Immediately the
heads are cut off and put In bags.
Then back honie go the rejoicing Was,
not nccriecting to take the bodies along
for the larder and raising a tremen
dous whooping and hullabaloo along
the way. At home there Is a ceremony
to perform. The wife or mother of the
man who mace the kill takes the
head out of the bag and proceeds to
wail over it formally. She must wash
the blood from the dead face aud wall
an incantational song a? she does so.
She must work herself into a senti
mental frenzy, which feat under the
circumstances is usually easy of per
formance. If her wailing lacks the
ring of genuineness her husband helps
to supply that which Is lacking by
beating her.
"This song, strangely enough, be
seeches the aid of the spirit of the
head and addresses it as a mighty
ruler. It is this spirit which is to pro
mote the growth of the crops, and it
must be treated with great reverence.
I heard this song once.
"After the head has been washed
and v. ailed over, a raw egg Is put into
the dead mouth to feed the spirit
Then the head is thrust up on a pule.
A basket of seed paddy (rice) Is put
under it and left for a few days."
