JURY IS BEING SELETED
TWO JUDGES OF' DEBATING HAVE
ACCEPTED INVITATION8,
"Radicalism and Conservatism In
American Life" was tho subjoct of an
address given by tho Rev. S. Mills
Hayes at convocation yesterday. Dr,
Hayes is a forceful speaker, nnd his
BCholarly address was received with
ereat. interest by all that greeted
'him,
' Forces Breaking Down.
"There seems to be a general break
ing down of forces," tho speaker said,
among other things. 'On every hand
we are witnessing things, that indi
cate change. Parties are constantly
breaking down, and new ones spring
ing up. Party lcatiers of yesterday no
longer have the magic Influcnco over
the people that those of tho day pos
sess. Issues are ruthlessly cast aside,

statesman must defend himself and
his policies from the attacks or the
majority oU tho people. Recent
events show that tho United States Is
entering ujpon a now era. They have
decided that a change is needed,
whether for good or for bad we. can
not now tell. Tho Insurgent move
ment represents turmoil within the
ranks. It represents something novel
in policies and Is characteristic of
American life today.
Change In Education.
"And" In education we find constant
changes. Tho stato university Is, com
paratively speaking, Bomothing new.
1 The Idea of a college where any one Is
free to enter providing he can meet
the test is an advance from tho old
regime. The philosophy of former
generations no longor holds a place
-among the advanced Ideas of the
thinker of today. We strive now for
practical usefulness In education."
In explaining cue meaning ior me
change, Dr. HayeB repudiated the pop
ular Idea that we aro emerging Into
radicalism. Except In things material
tho United States does not lead tho
world. Wo still follow in the wake of
European civilization in matters of
morals-and thought. Insurance, land
policy; secret ballot,, and municipal
regulations we have adopted from
(Europe.
The United StateB Is arter all con-
oattunHvn-nndYerv conservative at
that. Our constitution Is safeguarded"
In many ways such as is no other, wo
have the greatest respoct for private
property, and tho rights of tno mm
vldual cltlen, Our constitution is dif
ficult to amend, hence wo aro protect
ed from the encroachments of the
demagogue.

year coach? Or will It bo "King"
Cole? Or "Deacon" Koehlor? Or
laBt but not least will It be
Walter Steffen? Theso nro a fow
of the questions Nebraska students
aro trying to answer.
The lnconflrmcd report is that
these four men aro applicants, for
thtf position. Tho commltteo ap
pointed by the athletic board to
mako a selection has not given out
whether or not they have received
any applications, .but there Is a
firm belief among tho undergradu
ates that ono of tho .four men
named will be chosen for tho yenr,
beginning the. fall-of 1911.
If tho students were to vote on
the four there is llttlo doubt as to
what the result would be "King"
Colo. While It Is known that any
ono of the other three could hold
down the job satisfactorily, there
"King" Colo wouldbrlng tho wholo
athletic department up to tho
mark made this year In football.
Koohlcr Is n CornhuBker of tho
days of 1901 and 1902, when Ne
braska was in tho habit of going
through seasons without bolng
scored against. He is now coach
of tho Denver university eleven.
Bender was In tho Scarlet and
Cream ranks a year or two after
Koehlor. At quarter ho was one of
tho most wonderful all-round meiT
the team has over had. . At present
ho .Is coach-of tho Washington uni
versity team nt St. LouIb.
Steffen Is not. bo well known In
Nebraska, but his fame has spread
abroad and his football record is
sufficient recommendation. Ho Is
a Chicago man of a fow years after
Eckersnll, and was as cloven a
player as ovor wore the maroon.
