CONVOCATION.
Tho two convocations which are
' 'hold onch week aro for tho benefit of
, tho students. However, utlendnnco Is
not compulsory. Tho university men
nnd women will he great henellttcd
to nttond ovory convocation which Is
hold in Memorial hall. Karh week u
locturo well worth tho time spent In
listening to It la delivered, and it Is to
, tho interest of overy man and woman
to bo present. Local musicians arc
often prevailed upon to give concerts
for the benollt of the men and women
of tho university at this hour, and no
mnn or womnn who considers thorn-
aolvos loyal students of this institu-
tlon can miss one of these concerts,
which often cost a large price when
l .hoard at n music hall or a theater.

DRILL.
At tho closo of tho llrst weok's
drill tho usual grumbling among the
now men of the university is heard
about the work in tho military depart
ment". It stands to reason that the
men who mapped out the course for
tho men of the university knew a
groat deal moro about what the fresh
men need to take than do the first-
yonr men themselves. As a result tho
. freshmen should drill and be men
about It. If they expect to play tho
"baby act," this is not the place foi
thorn to spend nino months out of eacli
' twelvo for the noxt four years.
FOOTBALL' QAME6.
Tho flrBt game of the senson comes
. tomorrow. At that time the men of
j 'tho unlvorslty will be1 out battling ror
tho honor of the school on the grid
iron. Howover, it is necessary foi
every man and every woman to be
present at this game. No matter il
the' contest is with one of the smaller
colleges of the state. Tho honor of
Nebraska Is being upheld by a num
ber of men and it is necessary for you
to-glvo-thom your support. Get oul
, and boost. What is the difference if
you yoll yourself hoarse? A man can
go to this unlVorslty but once in his
life, and ho should tako advantage of
ovory opportunity to. bIiow that ho Is
a. man with tho real unlvorslty spirit.
Unlvorslty spirit, especially when il
is University of Nebraska spirit, is the
best thing to make men with red cor
. puscles in their blood. Got out and.
. cheer. Support tho Nebraska team
t ' It Is your team as well as a team be
longing to the rest of tho students.
Ffght for tho Scarlet and Cream as
hard as If you ivero wearing a football
suit. It is your duty. Now do It..
'.. THE FRESHMAN A88EMBLY.
A movement In the right direction
, was started yesterday In calling a
meeting of the members of the fresh
man class and, tolling ftiem what they
" wore In schqol for. It Is necessary to
act in this manner for tho good of the
now studonts. In many of iho east
ern colleges tho under classmen aro
made to feel that they are, an organ
ized body working for tho good of the
institution qf which they are a part
ATHLETIC FIELD
Nebraska
X
II P. M.
This Is ono or tho iteedB of Nebras
ka, and In accomplishing this tho
assembly yesterday took a step In the
right direction. Many of the new stu
dents do not know what they are here
for, and instead of giving them aid
and sympnthy the upper classmen
gently remind the freshmen how lit
tle they know and that they nre of
particularly no use.
Howover tho froBhmen nre a neces
sary part of a college community, and
for their honollt the upper chiBsmen
.should seek to aid the new men nnd
women, instead of making fun of them
and seeking to criticise their every
action.
In many instances the llrst year
man also knows too much. He seeks
to toll his fellow students how the uni
versity should be run, and what the
heads of tho departments' as well ne
tho executive of the Institution should
do. For this reason he should be
made to knuckle down and bear the
jibes and "slams" of tho upper class
men. For the other reason aid should
be given him.
Drake will loquirc two years or col
legiate work hereafter before admit
ting any one to the law school.
A class glee club is the latest or
Uaiiialloii to break out nt Michigan.
The sophomores have been the llrst
(o get together on the proposition.
Those students of the Montana
Agricultural College who engage In
oratory. debating or do regula'r staff
work on the college paper will be
given ciedlt In the department of
English.
In England one student in live
takes part In some phase of athletics,
according to a comparative study,
made by Professor Falrchild of tho
University of Missouri, while in
American colleges the ratio is only
ono In fifty.
RUSHING SEASON TO START
Contained from Pago l
least two years' standing or a former
student of good standing with at least
two years of college credit who has
boon out of the university five or more
years."
The Punishment.
For new studonts the degree of
punishment lies within the discretion
Qf tho fraternity council, which they
may Inflict in case of identified viola
tion of Its statutes. The rule Is: "If
any fraternity shall violate the rule of
this council with reference to rushing
or pledging a student, such fraternity
shall not be allowed to pledge or initi
ate such student within a period of
one year from tho date of such viola
tion. Any student pledged or initiat
ed in violation of tho rules of the
lnter-fraternity council shall bo liable
to expulsion from tho university, and
the chapter concerned shall bo public
ly reprimanded as directed by tho
council. Ignorance of tho law shall
excuse no one," n
The fraternity prospects for new
pledges this year are brighter than
over before. & least such Is the gen
oral concensus of opinion among unl
vorslty fraternity men. With the
Bororltles of Nebraska establishing a
pledging' record which greatly sur
passes any heretofore 'established by
the sororities of this school, It appears
at present as though the fraternities
will "go and do likewise."
