That splondld hit of rooting by tho NobraBka pooplo at tho basketball game botwoon tho CornlniBkors and Drake hiBt night waB ono of tho finest signs of truo loyalty to this university that tho rooters havo shown In sev eral yearB. Tho Bcoro, when tho gamo waB nearly over, stood 32 to 28 In Nebraska's favor, but Drako was fast narrowing down tho lead, and it looked as though the cornhuBkers must close. At that crisis tho Ne braska rooterB In ovory part of tho armory started to shouting tho uni versity yollB, and their team, by some spectacular playing, increased its lead with throe field goalB to a safe point. Tho spurt of tho cornhuskor five was due In a great degree to the rooting. If tho Nebraska students would ro peat their loyal exhibition of last night moro ofton this groat university would soon havo a college spirit com mensurate with Its place in tho ath letic world. It would make for bettor teams in all Nebraska's sport, and would put the cornhUBkors on a piano, U4I..O. Two Stores I4IS.O. many left, but what there are are corkers. from which Kansas would never bo able to tumble them. FOR NEXT 8EME8TER. Tho Dally Nebraskan offers an un usual opportunity for valuable work to students of tho university- There seems to be an impression abroad that time is wasted which is spent in Nebraskan work for all, except those who Intend to go into journalism. It is, of course, truo that for a man who has in view a journalistic career, work on the Daily Nebraskan is in direct lino with his future vork, but its ben efits are so broad that thoy are val uable for any student Reporting for tho Daily Nebraskan brings a student in contact with differ ent school activities more than al most any other one thing. Besides this It tends to give the student a broad acquaintance with the teaching force of the university wfiich cannot but be of great value. Lastly It gives good training in. the writing of clear and forcoful English. The purpose of this editorial Is not, however, to elaborate upon tho value of work on the Nebraskan, but to rather call attention to the fact that there is now room on the editorial staff ,for a number .of bright young men nnd women.

Recent developments In the Mis souri Valloy conferonco havo proved that Nebraska's placo is not in that organization and that this school should never havo ontered the alli ance. Nebraska is not "too big" for that athletic body, but so long as it romalnB a member it is bound to be lied down by senseless rules that are Intended, moro or loss, to kill tho major sports played by tho univer sities. What is needed in modern athletics is considered legislation and not petty restriction such as certain schools In tho "big sovon" are trying to force on the moro progressive uni versities In that organization. The movoment started against tho football training table at tho recent KanBaB City meeting of tho confer onco showB a tendency of some of the narrow-minded mentors to interfero'ln Institutions of athletics that are nec essary to good, strong teams. The HIGH TOP SHOES At the 141 5 O St. Store Q E f $5.50 and $6 shoes not 0Ui9U training table, for example, does more to give a school a fast and efficient eleven than any other single thing connected with tho game with the ex ception of the coach. There is ab solutely no call for its abolition, and If the other schools of tho Missouri Valloy conference insist on doing away with It Nebraska should with draw as a member of that body. Tho cornhuskor school is In prac tically the same position that Mich igan was two years ago In the "big nine" when a needless amount of ill advised legislation was enacted. Tho Ann Arbor institution stood for these adverse rules as long as It could and then' withdrew. Should the other mem bers of the Missouri Valloy confer ence carry their present intentions any further there Bhould be no hesi tancy on the part of the Nebraska board of control about cleaning its skirts of any such a petty body as the sp called "big seyen," As long as this university stays with the conference it will have to obey the useless-rules that prevent the highest development in college athletes. There Is only one consideration un der which Nebraska should remain in the conference, and that is with tho understanding that tho . rules of m nriF ii tra w nn r vn w fa - rv rt n vw a u p w uu ,.mo ulwlo liberal. Nebraska can not afford to curtail Its own chances of advance ment by bowing to the demands of a fow narrow-minded mon from other schools In tho Missouri Valloy. NEW 8CHEDULE8 DISTRIBUTED Class Programs for New Semester at Registrar's Office. Tho class schedules for tho second semester woro rocelved at tho office of Registrar Harrison yesterday after noon nnd woro at onco placed on dis tribution. The schedules Include all the new classes and courses that will be added to the un'lvorslty curriculum with tho opening of tho now semester, and It Is now possible for tho students to arrange their programs definitely. Attention is again called by tho reg istrar to the fact that everyone muBt consult tho dean who Is his advlBer before he comos to tho office for final registration. This should be done ono day provlous to the period for which the student holds a ticket, In order that all danger of delay may bo obviated. Students should roport at room 204, Administration hall, prompt ly at tho beginning of the hour Indi cated on their registration cards. It will not do for thorn to appear at any time during tho hour. Thoy must be there at tho Btart. Tho engineers' program committee will bo in sosBlon during registration week in M 10G and it is nocesBary that every ongineer Interview this commit tee boforo presenting himself for reg istration. On account of examinations there will bo no convocation next week. MEMBERSHIP CONTEST TO ,COL8E Y. M. C. A. Prepares Banquet for the End Tonight. Tho Y. M. C. A. membership con test will close tonight at G o'clock with a banguot to all men of tho opposing teams of the city Y. M. C. A. rooms. Just what tho result of tho contest will be is difficult to predict, as both sideB have refused to disclose oven approximately tho results of their efforts. All the members of both teams are requested to bo present and to report to their respective loaders or the secretary the total number of men secured. While tho commltteo does not urge tho contestants to fast at all In prep aration for tho Bupper, thoy promise a good, substantial feed. The result will bo announced Immediately pro ceding tho toaBts, which will bo re sponded to by Itfra following speakers: Baker, Hare, Mahood, Curtis, George and Der Kinderen. The affair will close early enough to permit all who wish to attend tho basket-ball game In the evening. HAVE P08ITION8 FOR TEN MEN Westlnghouse Company Satisfied With Nebraska Graduates. That graduates of the engineering college of tho University of Nebraska are the equals of any in the country has again been demonstrated by tho fact that the Westlnghouso company has announced its Intention of em ploying ten members of tho senior en gineering class on their graduation. The work, of the Nebraska graduate is said to Compare favorably with t that of" tutgraduate ot any other of the pror Inent engineering schools. Sir. Charles B. Downton, assistant enoral superintendent of the West lnghouso company, will be in Lincoln, on Wednesday, January 27, and wish es to meet tho senior mechanical and electrical engineering students to dis cuss with them questions of employ, ment. Mr. Downton will be in M 211 from 1 until 3 on this day to meet all who wish to see him'. i vv.. ... xiuvo your ciotnes nresseil nt Weber's Suitorlum, Cor, llth and O. BAIMAN LEAVES RACE TRACK ATHLETE TO LET JUNIOR POLITICS ALONE. THIRD SOPHOMORE LIKELY OUT 8TUDENT IN ENGINEERING COL ' LEGE MAY MAKE RUN. Nothing New In 8enior Situation and Freshmen Candidates Not Yet Announced No Third Man Yet Out In 8enlor Class. H. O. Bauman, whose candidacy for tho presidency of the Junior class was announced several days ago, yester day ontered a formal resignation from the race. Mr. Bauman haB been can vassing members of the class since his entry early in tho week and had met with considerable success. He found, howover, that the political gamo re quired time and trouble and moro of each than he felt the junior presi dency was worth. With Mr. Bauman out of the run ning, Miss Josophine Huso and Paul Yates are left In the race. MIbs Hubo, who was tho fist to ente the lists, has numerous supporters among both co-eds and the men of tho class. Yates, on the other hand, is well and favor ably known and he is making a can vass that leaves, nothing undone from point of thoroughness, Three 8ophs May Fight. With W. H. Coulter and Leslie Hyde already out for tho honors In the second-year clasB, it now seems likely that a third man will contest with them for the presidency of tho soph omores. It is understood that this man will be an engineer and that his can didacy will be announced within a very fow days. The clannish spirit of tho engineering students will be de pended upon to give him a good boost at tho- start. In tho senior and freBhman classes there is nothing new as to politics. Hills and Baker are still tho only two fourth-year men out for tho presi dency in that class and no ono has yet appeared in tho freshmen class. ANOTHER MILLION FOR CHICAGO John D. Rockefeller Increases His Gifts to $24,515,322. John D. Rockefeller Tuesday pre sented tho University of Chicago with $1,000,000 for purposes of gen eral endowment. Tho gift was made known in a tel( gram received by Martin A. Ryerson president of the university board of trustees, and was accepted by tho board at a special meeting In th-i university offices In the Corn Ex change bplldlng. The latest million raises tho sum total of Mr. Rockefel ler's benefactions to $24,515,322. As was the case last year when Mr. Rockefeller presented the university with $2,000,000, no cash gift for the payment of annual deficit was neces sary. The budget for the coming year, beginning July 1, 1909, amount ing to 41.250,000, will bo covered by the school's income, according to Dr. Goodspeed. Tho university officials thus regard the school as self-supporting again this year.
