Unlike the other two recent ac quisitions this new addition to the ranks of tho Hellenes, known as Beta Sigma, has disclosed nothing of Itself to the curious public. Its membership roll Is not oven published, nor Is 1U purpose, extent of organization or prin ciples, if it has any. In fact, the name and the information of its foundation fell into the hands of one of tho re porters of The Nebraskan quite by accident. Whether or not the new "Beta Sigmu society stands for something that will not permit of publication, or not, is a question. Certainly It seems that mo tives not exactly of the best have prompted its organization and it de fends Itself by concealment. Profmbly the new oclcty will not be given fraternal recognition by the oth er Greeks, for they are, as a rule, a "conservative body, and only the test of time will gain admittance to the myBtlc Greek letter circle. The lull In social functions accom panying tho Lenten porlod -will bo en livened by a dance to be given In the Armory noxt Saturday evening after tho basket ball game with the team from the Unlyeraity of Wisconsin. The game will be off hands by 9:30, in plen ty of tijno to allow a program of four teen numbers to be danced. Of course tho affair will bo very informal, but often, tho very Informality of a dance makes It so much more enjoyable. Lot tors of invitation have been sent to the various frat houses and It Is hoped to make this game a record broken in the point of attendance. Tho manage ment will bo put to no small expense to bring Wisconsin hero and it Is de cidedly up tp the students to patron ize the games tho board offers at least CONCERT University Cadet Band.

It seems a blot on our support of good athletics to think that a bait has to be offered to lure us to support the fastest gamo that Is played by college men In some such mannor as a poorly patronized merchant seeks to draw trade by giving away something free gratis, for nothing, but the popular chord In University society will cer tainly respond to this opportunity to dance. The cause is a good one, even if the methods resorted to of necessity are not complimentary to the Btudent body, and we ought to turn out en masse and gladden the basket ball men's hearts. Academy Preli ninaries. The preliminaries for the debate be tween the Academy and the city Y. M. C. A. debating teams was held last evening before a fair sized audience. The debate was on tho question: "Re solved, That the best Interests of both country would be served If Canada were Annexed to the United States," and many good points were brought out. Fifteen men entored the prelimi naries, from which the following six were selected as the debating squad of the Academy: D. P. De Young, J. H. Morgan. A. H. Miller, H. G. Myers, 0. J. Shaw and F. A. Wblfo. From these six three men will be selected to com pete against the city Y. M. C. A. about tho first of next April. Work on the debate will commence at once, under Mr. Chas. P. Craft, who is in charge of debating at tho Academy. Mr. Fred M. Hunter, another University debater of considerable fame, Is In charge of the Y. M C. A. team. The judges last evening were G A. Iee, Nell M. Cronln and Ira Ryner. The debate with tho Y. M. C. A. Is the only one that has so far been sched uled by the Academy and a great effort will be made to win It. Much Interest hus already been aroused at the Acad emy over the contest. New Dairy Building.
