DRAWS-$2.30 PER HOUR.
Former t Dean,, Rotcoe Pound Teaches
8lx Hours Per Week and Gets $7,000.
E. H. Clark has just received a let
ter from'ROBcoo Pound, formerly dean
of tho law college here, who is now
professor of law at Harvard Univer
sity." In writing of ihe way1 he' Ib get
ting settled in his ne.w position, he
says: . 4 .'
"My ofllce Is big enough for a lec
ture room and well furnished. I hold
some of my smaller clnsBes here. I
teach six hours a Week and have Just
been notified that my salary has been
raised to $7,000, with one more In
crease to look forward to."
FRESHMAN HOP FRIDAY.
Delayed Denouncement Causes Slow
8ale of Tickets.
The first dance of the year to be
given by the freshmen tho annual
'freshman hop will be held at the
Lincoln hotel, Friday evening, Janu
ary 6th. Big preparations have been
made for this hop and it promised to
.be- a success, except that-thejnanngei
ment fear a lack of patronage. Duo
to the fact that the dance will bo held
so soon after tho holidays, the ticket
sale has failed to get a good start,
and at present it appears as though
the receipts would hardly pay ex
penses. It is urged by tho chairman
that every freshman, and upper-classman
as Veil, lose no time In making
dates for "the best dnnco of tho sea
son." SENIOR NOTICE.
Senior pins may be had at the Uni
versity Book Store, 340 North
Eleventh street, now. Besides those
ordered, a few extra pins have teen
secured, and will be kept only a Bhort
time. Tills Is the last chance to. get
your Iflll pins. H. E. DIXON.

Taxed to Limit.
Tho University heating plant was
taxed to Its limit. The Arctic wind,
which fanned the buildings all day
long, made the firemen a great deal
of trpuble. Under ordinary clrcum
BtnnceB the heating system ls ode-
fliiatej) byline wTbiTof yesterday was
enough to discourage the oldgst fire
man on the force. Rooms were cold
and a number of classes had to bo
dismissed. At ten o'clock tho temper-,
aturo in the art, gallery; was "belowBoI
degrees. No classes werojhjjl&lin wt&J
law school during the forenoon" and
'even some of the afternoonVclassesi
.were frozen out. .-...

Scores of ..students," W.bdv had loft 4
their home townB In plenty of time,
to reach Lincoln for thlr'jclasseSjj
were stranded in the blizzard or their
trains so delayed that attendance at
classes was Impossible. One man
came from Dawes county, in the ex
treme western part o fthe state, left
at eight o'clock Monday morning and
did not rench the city until after six
Tuesday. According to a ruling of
the authorities students who did not
report for classes on Tuesday will re-
celve an unexcused absent mark on
the books. It is not known whether t
me ueuiuiutiijuy uumuiiueu mil uiuuo
a special ruling to benefit these forced
delinquencies.
