Following tho Btlff flght which Min nesota found necessary to down Ne braska ton days ago, the Gophers are beginning to wonder if It Isn't too much work, after all, for the glory In volved. Tho Minnesota students, look ing down upon Nebraska from tho lofty heights occupied by their insti tution In the football world, can'tvun dorstand why they should work so hard to beat a team which doesn't amount to anything, all things con sidered. After vlowlng the Minnesota hos pital list and carefully inspecting tho smallnosB of tho score against Ne braska, tho Minnesota Dally appears with the following extravaganza: "There Is a growing sontlnftnt at tho university that tho annual game with Nebraska ought to be eliminated. It Is not caused by any desire to Ig nore the CornhUBkors for unsports manshlp, or because thoy are not wor- thy foes on the gridiron. Tho argu ment against the game Is that Minne sota, In order to bo In the running for tho woBtern championship, to play Wisconsin, Chicago and Michigan each year, and that these three big games are enough, "Although Minnesota meets one of Its toughest opponents each year in the Nebraska team, tho game Is con sidered in tho nature of a practlco game1. For thlB reason the team work Is never developed to ItB highest ef ficiency,, and the men are not In first class physical condition for tho con test. Big Game for Nebraska. "Tho Cornhuskors, on tho othor hand, consider the game with tho Gophers tho big struggle of tho year. They develop their toam to its high est stato of perfection for tho Minne sota game. Thoy would rather beat Minnesota than all of the other teams on tholr schedule. "Tho result is that the Cornhuskors play like fiends againBt tho MJnneso tans. Thero is hardly a contest be tween those two Institutions in which ono or more Gopher players are not laid out for the season, or else aro bo Injured that their, playing ability is decreased for tho balance of' tho season. Tbis is but natural, consid ering tho strenuous nature of tho gamo and tho different view each team takes, of tho struggle. ''Another reason why tho abolish ment of the Nebraska-Minnesota gamp is, advocated is because it .or dinarily has no bearing on tho West ern, championship. Tho victory ovor Nebraska was not necessary to clvo Minnesota tho Western championship, provided she won all of tho other james. . f V t . Cadet The Shoe that nieets all the requirements.

"Nebraska ,Jb not-a member of the big nine. Outsido of Minnesota and Iowa, none of the other teams in the conferpnee have games with tho Corn huskors, Minnesota had already de feated Iowa, bo that the Iowans are out of the running, oven It they do subsequently defeat Nebraska. "This year's game with the Corn huskers woro arranged last season when -a two-year agreement was en tered into. In view of tho resumption of athlotlc rotations with Michigan, and tho annual Chicago and Wiscon sin games, It Is more than likely that Nebraska will not be taken on next year." DANN SPEAKS ON CITY OF CONSTANTINOPLE UNIVERSITY PR0FE880R TELL8 OF HI8 IMPRE99I0NS. MOTELY POPULATION IS A FEATURE The Turkish Capital a City With an Entrancing History and With a People Uniquely Interested In Their Dally Life. Prof. W. F. Dann addressed the Tuesday convocation on the subject "Constantinople." Before Introducing .tho speaker, Prof. Grumann mado some remarks on the lack of student and faculty interest In tho convocations. Ho did not aim to scold, but thought that more Interest should bo taken. Of Constantinople Prof. Dann said: "To see Constantinople has been my lifelong desire. Ever slnco I was old enough to spell the word I have wished to visit that city. I did not go to study art during my sojourn In Europe, but went almost directly to Constantinople. I had no business there, but was actuated only by a do sire to get an Impression of the city. The tlmo I spent thoro was only a fow weeks and not long enough to get much knowledge of tho larger prob lems. Tho time was spent In getting a general impression. An Interesting City. "One may wish to seo Constanti nople for nny ono of threo reasons. The first is, Its natural beauty; sec ond, its historic association, and third, to study tho modern city and its conditions. Any of these aro wor thy reasons. As a city of beauty it is almost without a rival. The Bosporus in front is a most interesting place, and Is about one and a half miles wide. Modern Constantinople is of much natural importance geographical ly and politically. It was important oven' In Greek times and In the mid dle, ages, i was tho capital of the foastern empire a thousand years after tho westorn omplro had fallen. ' "It is filled with the learning of tho middle ages. Yot in other ways it is the center of much interest. Antiqui ties It has b'u,t few as compared with Athens and Rome,, and for one expect ing to find such remains It Is disap pointing. The great mosque is a mag nificent specimen of archltecturo. It lis very difficult to comprehend and V i7 can be understood only by seeing It. The Moslem do not like Christians In their mosques and resent any undue curiosity. The Turks are very relig ious. Five times dally they pray. There are fountains about the moBquos that they may perform abula tlons beforo prayer. Sometimes this is prefunctionary, but often is quite thorough. I think wo may trust the Turks In cooking for they are a clean ly people. Motley Population. ' '"Tho most striking thing is the dor tho sun Is represented. The best place to seo this Ib on- the bridge across tho river. The people live in quarters, every class having a section of their own. This gives to the city an extremely cosmopolitan character. There Is nothing to draw tho peoplo together, and their disunion is an un pleasant spectacle." ONI PERU STUDENTS FORM ORGANIZATION ANOTHER NEW UNIVER8ITY STU DENTS' SOCIETY ORGANIZED. FORMER PERU NORMAL MEN ELEOIBE Enthusiastic Meeting of Old Members of the Normal School Leads to Their Organization as a 8ociety. , Another university organization has been added to the rapidly growing list of university societies. This time it Is a" society of Peruvians. Fifty of the former students of the Nebraska State Normal school at Peru met and formed this new organization. Last Saturday evening theBO former students were requested to nleet at the woman's building. Hero thoy were entertained by tho girls and matron of the dormitory. An informal program was rendered, at which MIbb Josephine Loomls of Crete gavo a pleasing vocal solo. This waB fol lowed by a short recitation by C. M. Penny of Albion. B. C. Marcellus of Lincoln gave a reading. This cdn eluded the program,. and an election of officers and the appointment of a committee followed. Officers Elected. E. W. MarcelluB of Lincoln was ap pointed president pro tempore, nnd the following officers were elected: MIbs Mabel Bridges of Lincoln, president; MIbb Mamie Jackson,' secre tary and treasurer. A committee to lay plans for a per manent organization was appointed, with N. A. Bengston of tho geography department as chairman. It was also planned to hold semi-monthly meetings at somo place which would be deter mined in ,'tho near future. The purpose of the organization Is to bring the former members of tho Peru school In closer touch with each other, and establish thb samo friendly feeling hero that wad evident when they woro students at tho normal, in stitution.

NEED TO SHOW YOUNG PEOPLEOF THE WEST NEBRA8KA GRADUATE FINDS HI8 ALMA MATER UNKNOWN. HE APPEALS TO STUDENTS FOR HELP Says That the Thing to Do Is to Give Residents of the West an Oppor tunity to Know .What Ne braska Can Do. In a letter to a Nobraska professor a university graduate of last year de clares that this university counts for nothing more than a "country school" to the peoplo of tho west where he Is now located. Ho insists that' Nobras ka students should do something at once, to make known to tho weBt the advantages of their school, to the end that western young peojplo may come to Nobraska rather, than to Chicago and othor eastern schools. The writer of the letter is not .a pessimist. He Ib xa man who was noted for tho excess of ills "Nebraska spirit" while an undergraduate. Since leaving school he has been at work In a city not more than a, thousand miles west of Lincoln and It is of condi tions there that ho writes. Is Not Known. Tho letter, devoid of personal, ref erences, is as follows: "I want you to put It up to, those people at Nebraska at they must do more to make our university felt hero in tho west. I will tell you why I say this to you. I havo been, hero for six weeks and during; thal tlmo I have mot a number of college pebpl6 from 'tho east And a groat, many who novor havo been east of Denver, :To this latter class tho JJnlverslty of Nebraska stands for no ' mor'o than a country school. This Is. because they know nothing aboutf it; they have never had an dtpdrtunity to hear of our good work, but it does not lessen the feeling of chagrin of ono when he re alizes that his college Is not appreci ated. "There, aro fqur of ub ,here now and we are working hard to show people what wo represent, but wo need holp. Every year young men and women -are going to (ho east to study. Why not get them to come to Nobraska? You can havo them' thero as well as Chi cago. Some of the active students can take this work upon themselves and in co-operation with tho alumni can begin n movement in' the west. I think It Is worth tho tlmo. f, . Still Interested., j "I do not want yoii to ''think that this letter Is wholly an appeal in the interests of Nebraska University; it has a peVsonal sldealso'.
