Wo are facing a serlouti situation. The building must bo constructed elBO whoro on the campus or wo will have no more athletics. These are the al ternatives and between them a choice must bo made. We would greatly re gret to boo athletics recelvo a severe blow, as our future along these lines Is exceedingly bright. We only sought to depict tho situation as It truly ex ists and have made no attempt at col oring, matters or to make the case seom unduly aggravated. The fact Is 1 apparent that If tho physics building Is put on the athletic field, then ath letics must go. GOVERNMENT EMPLOYMENT Reasons Why Government sitions Are Desirable. Po- Every Sophomore owes a debt to his class, tho University and himself. Como out Monday to the class meet ing, and vote upon tho question of class election of the Sombrero board. An honest opinion 1b all that is desired. No man or woman In the Sophomore class can afford to stay away, as everyone will be held responsible for the quality of the book. Remember, Monday, at chapel time. o- The musical programs at convocation have proved one of tho most effective means of keeping up Interest in chapel exercises this year. A common Incen tive at the end of the week bringB out the students in crowds and convorts-the minds of many to attending chapel reg ularly. Then, too, tho nature of the program is a change from the usual order,and being musical In character, It makeB them look forward to it with anticipation, thuB exciting interest, which is not always concentrated on thQone. ovont, but often reached far ther and has a wholesome effect upon tho attendance on other days. o Monday will bo-an eventful day in tho way of class meetings. The Fresh men will meet to elect their officers, after being unablo to do so at a pre vious meeting on account of tho lack of a quorum. Tho JunlorB will assem ble to transact special business, and the Sophomores will bo out In force to decide on the questions raised regard ing the Junior Annual Board. Lot all of the members of each of these classeB come out and attend their respective meetings. Tho opinions of the class can not bo represented in any case If so many stay away from-the meetings where the buslnes of the class in trans acted. Many often express disappoint ment over something done at their class meetings, and yet it is often the case that they were not present when the offending action was taken. Thus they are thomsches to blame, and If there are any evils- that they wish to pro vent or see remedied then It is their duty to come out and cast their vote according to their views, even If they do nothing else. o University sentiment is directly againet tho construction of the new phys'lc building on the athletic field. The interviews published in today's pa per are the opinions of prominent men on thj laculty and these are sound and reasonable. If athletics are driven lrom the University campus, they can not prosper as they did here and much of the' Interest that has been centered In the past would depart with them. Realizing this bur Athletic Board 4ias laia down tho ultimatum that athletics The government positions are worth tho attention of all college Btudents, Inasmuch as It is a field accessible to most without previous experlence( al though this In addition will equip one better). One has an employer with whom merit is the prime considera tion, and tho salary Is perhaps better than can be obtained at the start else where. In each year every employe is en titled to 30 days of leave, .besides 30 days of sick leave. Under the civil ser vice rules the hours are from 9 to 12. and 12:30 to 4, which leaves plenty of time for additional study, recrea tion, or whatever disposition one will make of his time. A large number of employes take the work In the different educational Insti tutions here which arrange their schedules bo as to make that possible Thus, some draftsmen take courses in engineering and patent offlce exam iners Btudy the laws relating to pat ents. It is a significant fact that fow good men stay long with the first position they get, but manage either to be ad vanced or get a more suitable posi tion, outside of the government service. This can be said to apply to technical positions only and the demand Is great er than the supply. Clerks and sten ographers have not as gdod an oppor tunity as the Bupply Is ample. 'An engineering graduate can soon find something that will suit him and be able to got It too. Naturally enough, most of the em ployes are from tho east, though Ne braska has more than Us apportion ment. There are now some twonty people In this city who have been con nected with the University, and more are to be found at the arsenal and navy yards. Washington Is a clean and very beautiful city, the educational advan tages here presented are not equaled elsowjiere and the "boost" one gets from holding a government position "for some time, make them desirable. Anyone Interested in government work should apply to the United States civil service commission, Wash ington, D. C, for "Manual of Examina tions," which .contains the necessary particulars. In casting around for what you shall do when you leave college It will pay everyone to Investigate this field. With best wishes for the success of the society and my alma mater. L. J. POSPISIL.
