THE JUNIOR PROMENADE
To Be Held at the Lincoln-Elaborate
Preparations Being
Made Big Attendance
Promised.
Just two woeks from tonight tho
ercatcet and most elaborate scheduled
event on tho University social calen
dar during tho year, will take place at
tho Lincoln hotel, in the way of the
Junior Prom. Everything is practi
cally iif readiness for tho affair, and it
promises, by all odds, to bo tho most
superior prom In tho history of tho
Institution. Neither pains nor money
havo boon spared to make tho occasion
this ye&r'ono of pride, both to tho class,
and to tho University at large, and the
University social world is eagerly
looking forward to tho night of Febru
ary 6.
When seon by a reported for The Ne
braskan yesterday afternoon, Chair
man Davis, of the committee, hod this
to say regarding tho prospects of the
prom. "Wo, have done evey.thlngj?Qfc
slble to mako tho danc a compile;

nearly a dozen pieces. We have ar
ranged for elaborate decorations, and
spared no expense in other lines, such
as printing, refreshments, and the like.
Wo want to bo ajjlo to say taut wq.
gavo tho best prom over given, and I
think wo shall."
From present indications there will
be a representative crowd at the prom.
It always has a greater attendance than
any other affair of the sorUdurlng tho
year, and bears, of couwoftgreater pres
tige. It 1b the one event" during' the
year that peoplo plan ahead of timo to
attend, and to stay away is a sign that
something is radically wrong.
Edgar F. Davis is chairman of u-o
committee, and Norris A. Huso Ib mas
ter of c'cTrombnles, assisted by a repre
sentative and active committoo of
nearly twenty other Juniors, who are
all enthusiastic over tho outlook for
their class function. Ticketswill be
oa sale at tho executlvo offlce.
Unl. vs. Y. M. C. A.
The basket ball team will meet their
old-timo opponents, tho Lincoln Y. M.
C. A., tomorrow night in tho city gym
nasium. These contests are always
Interesting and hard-fought as consid
erable rivalry exists between the Uni
versity and the Y. M. C. A. Tho Var
sity will be handicapped on account of
the lack of practice this week and the
small size of the field. Nevertheless
the team is not discouraged by tholr
dofeat of a week ago and are going In
to win. They have already defeated
tho Christians by a score of 25 to 18,
but tho Y. M. C. A. line-up will be
different this time and perhaps con
siderably stronger in that Hagonsick,
a former University man, will play for
ward, and Guthlng, a man of long ex
perience, will fill one of tho positions
at guard. It will be tho same team
which gave Haskell a closo rub Mon
day night. Last year we won from this
team by the small margin of 2 points.
Nebraska will appear for the first
time this season in uniform. The
suits will bo composed of black Jer
seys with a white "N," black trousers,
scarlet and cream, stockings and white
tennlB shoes. Twenty five cents admls-

tion. Mr. Dlnsmore said that a per

men and women, and it is this fact
that has marked the progress of tho

ular Sunday afternoon meeting of the
Y. M. C. A. In the Association parlors

will bo announced later. These meet
ings are Interesting and profitable and

gree, twenty-three have been accepted
as candidates for the degree of Master
of Arts, and eight have been approved
in candidacy for, the degree of Doctor
of Philosophy. Tho tendency for stu
dents of the class last graduated of
Bachelors of Arts or Science, to re
main for further study Is not as strong
as formerly because secondary teach
ers are not in such great demand.
Prof. Ellery W. Davis, Dean of the
College of Literature, Science and the
Arts, in his report, shows the decided
increase in the number of students en
rolled in that college, during tho pres
ent academic year.
In the Industrial College, no consid
erable change has been made in its
curriculum, other than tho establish
ment of a new group of studies In for
estry. What Is called the "technical
group of forestry," Is another group
recently organized to afford the young
men practical work In forestry.
Other regents from the different col
leges and departments connected with
tho University are all given in full,
while that of tho registrar and tho
summary of the students in attendance
during the year 1901-92 completes the
pamphlet.
The enrollment In the School of Ag
riculture is larger this whiter, than It
has ever been before. It shows the In
crease In the interest taken in scientific
Instruction.
The Junior-Senior basket ball game,
which was to have been played in the
Armory last night was postponed on
account of Inability to use the gymna
sium. . .
