The University of Nebraska does not Biipport basket-ball well, as was evi dent by tho small crowd In attendance nt the game Friday night. At the only basket-ball game to be played on tho 'varBlty grounds this season there were perhaps two hundred people present. It can hardly be expected that the same Interest will be manifested in basket ball as In football, but tho fact that the team is representative of tho uni versity and needs support Bhould bo incentive enough to bring out a large enough crowd to fill the armory at least. It is a commendable fact that the people who did bestir themselves BUlllciently to attend the game wcro extremely enthusiastic. STUDENTS OF ELOCUTION RECITE. The students of elocution entertained their friends Saturday night at a re cital. The program was varied and was of a nature to exhibit ability and training in the various lines of elocu tion work. Owing to an accident the lights went out and prevented the ren dition of the final number, a cornet solo by Mr. Jenne. Tho following are the numbers: Instrumental boIo Kivast Study No. (5 Miss Sue Doane. "Iloratius at the Bridge" Macaulay Mr. o. P. Hewitt. "Aunt Hitty, the Village Gossip".. Wiggin Miss Bessie Dumont. "Napoleon at the Pyramids" Graff Mr. K. Gregory. "The Fiddle Told" Franklin Miss Altn Swartout. (a) "Sunday Fishing' Robertson (b) "Wakln" the Young 'Uns" Robs Mr. A. C. Bates. Vocal solo Selected Miss LouckB. "Our Folks" Anonymous Mr. Golden. "David Harum'B Horse Trade" Westcott Mr. Delbert Gibson. "His Mother's Sermon" McLaren MIbs J. Edith Whittier. Judging from tho results of the games of tho Topeka team witu tti6 'varsity and city Y. M. C. A. teams, it seems that the Y. M. C. A. failed to show their much vaunted strength. Since tho game between tho 'varsity and Y. M. C. A. teams some tlmo ago, over which bo much discussion arose as to which waa tho stronger team and who really won tho game, basket-ball enthusiasts have been looking forward to see what tho two teams would do when pitted against a common rival. The defeat of the Y. M. C. A. team by tho I'opekans and their defeat In turn by tho 'varsity shows tho Btrength of tho two teams and disproves any claim which tho city brothers may put forth as to tholr superior Btrength. ANTI-SALOON MEETING. The university anti-saloon league listened to addresses by Rev. Fletcher Wharton and A. J. Wolfenbarger at its meeting Thursday night. Dr. Wharton in his talk declared that It is wrong to settle moral questions on the ground of expediency. If tho Baloon Is wrong ho declared that It Bhould be blotted out as Lincoln blotted out slavery. He extolled the effects of prohibition In Maine "and Iowa and said that where there were violations they u.d not produce as much harm as the saloons. He pointed out that It was tho saloons that ap pealed to the young men. Mr. Wolfenbarger likened the saloon . question to the slavery question. He said that much the same arguments had been used for the one as for the other. He defended the legal right of the legislature to prohibit the traffic. It would be cheaper, he Bald, to put every saloon man on a pension of $2, 000 per year and shut up their shops. He pointed out that the peoplo of Lin coln spend annually $500,000 for liquor in order to get the $42,000 that goes Into the school fund. He pointed out the beneflcient effects of .prohibitory laws on states and towns which have had them. PHI BETA KAPPA INITIATION. Last Saturday evening tho members of the senior class who were recently elected to membership In the Phi Beta Kappa Boclety were formally Initiated into that order at 425 Nqrth Twenty fifth street. The society and the can didates were the guests of Chancellor Andrews and Professor Taylor. At about 6 o'clock the guests began to arrive and in a very short time the home was well filled with wearers of the honorary key. After new and old members had become well acquainted tho initiation began. As has been cus tomary heretofore, the vico president conducted the ceremonies, after which the president's address was given by Chancellor Andrews in his usual happy way. The talk, though short, waa to the point and placed tho guests in a happy mood. After the initiates had passed through all the formalities the guests were seated to a tempting supper. Having spent a happy, as well as memorable, evening, the guests de parted at 9 o'clock, some unusually happy to be the proud wearers of the key, which they had won by their work while In this institution. Tho social feature of the Initiation is an innovation, the meetings here tofore having been utterly lacking in this respect. Former initiations were usually conducted in public and accom panied by some literary program. This year, however, the initiation cere monies were made more of a social affair In order to promote a more fra ternal feeling in the society. The pub lic meeting will not be done away with for this reason, but will be given next Wedneaday evening In Memorial hall. An address will then be given by Pro fessor Taylor.

LOVELAND, Section Director. Don't Blame the Prof! If you do not clearly understand his explanations the first or second, or even the third time. Don't blame the professor, we say, if he should get a little angry and think you stupid. It is natural. At the same time you must understand a subject thoroughly be fore you can learn, so if you do not understand the first time, you must have it repeated. Language Study requires practice by the ear, more than sight or thought. Through our system you cannot help but learn any foreign language, even should you not try. The Phonograph is always ready for you, 24 hours in' the day, and the records are made by foreign profess ors only, so you cannot help but get the proper pro nunciation. Why go to Europe to get this know ledge. Have it in your own room at all times of day. Let us demonstrate to you. It will cost you nothing. LANGUAGE PHONOGRAPHS 202 5. llth St. X3 k i . te. K
