The following is the program for convocation hour for the ensuing week : Thursday -Musical program. Friday Football mass meeting. The music stores In Ann Arbor ad vertise a "Michigan March." This sug gests to Nebraakans the Idea that we might have a "Scarlet and Cream March" or a "Nebraska Forever March." Distance does certainly lend en chantment. Coach Curtis of Kansas, when told by Nebraska boys that we thought there was a great deal of spirit in Kansas university, replied that the Kansas people took the same view of Nebraska. Mr. Curtis seemed to think that college spirit is stronger here than at Lawrence. The football players who are not yet on the varsity are urged to be out and on hand for practice. The football management has this great difficulty in keeping men on the field, toward the end of the season. Second team men should not forget that It Is as Im portant for them to be out and help train the more prominent representa tives of the university, as for the var sity men to get out Peculiar Interest attaches Itself to tho game with Knox on Saturday. In tho first place it will be a splendid con test because of Knox'B strength, and Nebraska must put up a superior game to win at all. Further, Nebraska has everything to lose, and will go into the game with the same spirit that brought victory at Minneapolis. A defeat at this stage of the game would prove dis astrous, as It would olimminate the Cornhuskers from further considera tion In the western championship situation. Some of the law students have reg istered an objection to the statement madeyesterday that students from that department have been Been to jump from the law library windows onto the football grounds on Saturday. They say these were for the most part high Bchool boys. Granting thiB to be the case, there Is no more reason why this should be so. Those law students who have observed this should have taken steps to suppress the practice on the part of others, even If they were not guilty of it themselves. The paper apologizes for statements made not en tirely just, provided an explanation Is made. Open Debate on Trusts, The federal control of trusts will be the question debated In English 13, the advanced course In debate, this after noon In IT. 20G, from 2 to 4 o'clock. Of the four speakers two were members of the Inter-state teams last year N. M. Cronln, who went against Colorado, and W. F. Meier, who helped mince meat Missouri. The other speakers will be O. I). Johnson, an old Inter-state debater, and J. N Norton. Prof. Ross will be associated with Prof. Fogg in criticising the debate, which will be open to the public. Dr. Hill Talks at Chapel. l)r Hill took as his subject at con ociition yesteiday "Immigration Into the Northwest." Dr Hill has visited this region twice, theiefore is in a position to judge of its agricultural possibilities. Two general movements toward the settling of this country have been made since the con stitution of the Canadian Pacific rail road, in 18!)0 and In H'M. Industrial depression caused the first expediton to fail. Since 18 there has been a steady inpouring of English. Ameri cans. Scotch and in the last two years, Russians. The most attractive strip of country is that Which extends from Wlnnepeg west to the Rockies, a distance of 1,000 miles. The soil is for the most pari good, although in some localltler it is thin and covered with rocks. The average yield of wheat is from 35 to 40 bushels per acre, oats from Tf) to 100. The rain fall is becoming less every year and may eventually ruin the agricultural possibilities of the country. There are" T 4,551 students enrolled In the law schools of this country. The formation of a school In tech nology is under consideration at Chicago. The University of Chicago Weekly has been discontinued, Its place being taken by a dally paper. The Ixnilsville Medical College has twenty-four men enrolled In Bible study. The Y. M. C. A. af Washburn College is rejoicing over a new room granted by tho college authorities. It is lo cated in the chapel building -and Is large, well lighted and has steam heat. In a recent number of the "Bota nlsches Centralblatt," a German bo tanical journal, there is an extended review of a paper on plant diseases by P. J. O'Gara, '02. Tho original paper was published in "Science" several months ago, and has attracted a good deal of attention among botanlBts. The botanical department has been sending out No. 6 of the reports of the botanical survey of Nebraska. This number contains a paper by G. G. Hedgcock, '99, on "The Retention of the Water-Contents of the Soil by Cer tain Plants." Already favorable com ments have been made on this paper, and reauests have come In for addi tional copies. The order of drill In the cadet batta lion will be guard mounting and In spection on Monday evenings, and com pany drill Wednesday and Friday even ings. William Yelser has been ap pointed librarian and clerk of the ca det band. The secretary of the Sigma Chi fra ternity Is in receipt of a request for a vote of the local chapter on the ques tion of admitting Columbia university, and the University of Cincinnati, Into tho national organization. A meeting will be called and the matter will be acted on soon. The Nebraska School Teachers' as sociation, whose membership is made up of leading educators of the state, will hold its first meeting of the year at the Lincoln hotel Friday evening. The chief feature of the program will be a paper by Dean Davis of the uni versity on "A Plea for the Continuity and Co-ordination." The number of releronce boons in hygiene is insufficient to accommodate the class. A reading schedule has been posted in the library. Each student may use the hooks only at the time designated by the schedule. This will prevent one student from keeping a book longer than one hour at a time and hiding it from the rest, because any one can determine from the sched ule who has the book and will be able to run it down.
