CHANCELLOR AVERY.
At tho mooting of tho rogontB In
Omnhn yoatorday Dr. Avory was nmdo
pormanont chancellor of tho Universi
ty of Nebraska. Aftor a trial of llvo
months as acting chancellor, tho ro
gents havo oxprossod their confidence
In his ability ub nh oxecutlvo and
their, on tiro approval of his adminis
tration by oloctlng him to tho highest
and tho most Important post nt tholr
disposal.
Dr. Avery bocoinos chnncolior of tho
University of Nohrnska with tho deep
jest lovo aad tho most thorough roBpect
of the wholo studont body. Whllo ho
was not widely known by tho students
at tho time of his selection as acting
chancellor ho haB by his actions slnco
that timo, so won tho honrts of all
who havo come in contact with him
that tho universal fooling over his
election is one of deepest satisfaction.
Familiar through long association
with ovory problem that Nebraska
has to boIvo, having tho unlimited con
fidence of all who know him, with a
united faculty to back him In what
ever he may endeavor to do, Dr. Avory
has a bright future as chancellor of
tho University of Nebraska. Every
thing indicatos that the next tew
, years will bo unparalleled in tho his
tory of Nebraska aB years of rapid and
yot solid growth.
No man over took the position of
chancellor of a great university bet
ter qualified for his work than does
Chancellor Avery. Ho knows the
problems ho has to solve and the men
with whom ho has to deal. He will
not havo to fight any opposition from
among, his faculty members. Ho has
tho kind of a disposition that does
more than Blmply excite cold admira
tion on the part of those who come in
contact with him. Such a nature 'as
his arouses love and makes It possible
for him to solve dollcato problems that
would otherwise bocomq hopelessly
Involved
Chancellor Avory is still a young
man, Ho haB yet many years during
which he may servo. as the head of the
University of Nebraska. It will there
fore be, possible now as never before
for policies to bo made with a view
to tho future. Tho election of Chan
cellor Avery means that steady pro
gress from how on will bo tho watch
word at Nebraska.
MIX-UP IN TICEKT8 FOR PLAY.
8enlora Haying Trouble In Getting .tho
flatter Straightened Out
The senior play committee Is Just,
now busily engaged in trying to un
ravel a mix-up that has through some
oversight, crept Into the distribution
of tickets for the senior play. The
mix-up is of a roally serious nature
as it may result in a small attendance
at the morning performance and an
overcrowding of the evening perform
ance. It was the intontlon of the commlt-
t.uie;,.give four seats ifor tho evening
performance to those who paid their
'dtidi'tiefdre 'Christmas, and' to (hose
who paid their duos after Christmas
two seats for tho morning performance
and two for. tho ovoning. As a mat
tor of faot four 'ovenlng seats wore
givdn to all who had' paid their dues
at all. This leaves very few tickots In
tho ovoning for tho genoral public and
makes no provision for filling the
Iioubo in tho morning.
In order to cotroot tho orror and
make it posslblo for tho play to pay
out all tho seniors who thus obtained
four inBtoad of two tickets are boing
urged by the committee to oxdhangeJ
two of tho ovoning for morning tickots
on tho noxt day that tickets are given
out. It is bollovod thnt if all seniors
will mako It a point to do this no sor
Ioub dnmago will yot bo done.
