Pros pects Indicate Close Con test. The Amos Aggies are evidently Hav ing up all their spurplus energy for the games which they are going to play with Nebraska for on Tuesday they allowed the Ilawkeyes to walk all over them According to newspaper reports the game resembled u wrestling match un der basketball rules more than it did a basketball game However this was only a fair sample of the kind of a game which the C clones have been putting up this year As soon as they see that the other side has the best of them thev think that it is up to them to kill off a few of their oppon ents. If the Cornliubker quintets prediction comes true the Ames Aggies will have nood and sufficient reasons for pursu ing their usual tactics. Stiehm's men, however, seem to be pretty sure that they can give as well as take, ho all those in favor of bloodshed had bet- ter aecuro their tickets early and passj into the big show Tho team is In perfect physical con dition and promises to show tho Ames aggregation a little real basketball. speir announces freshman;committees Publicity Committee Found Necessary for Boosting Class Af fairs.

At 2.30 tho discussion began An amendment to reduce tho one mill tax to one-half mill was introduced, and several lively debates followed During the discussion Representative Kronan Introduced an amendment to reduce the one-half mill tax to one-quarter mill He met with much ridicule and his proposal was defeated. It was ar gued in favor of the half-mill tax that tho money thus brought in would amount to $250,000 a year and that this amount would be all that the Uni versity regents could judiciously han dle It was further argued that the ijiic tion was one of money and not of n inoval This was granted 1 ;i goo 1 many on both sides In favor of the one mill tax it wns claimed that it would take fully one mill to either move the University or I extend the nresent campus It was t arirued that Nebraska used to have1 a better reputation than lt has now, which was because not enough money , has been eiven the University In re-1 cent years, and that Nebraska ought tQ haye OQO of tue beBt universities in the country.

Gordon Beck should have been an nounced as the newly appointed drum major of the Cadet Band with the oth er promotions given out last Tuesday.; AMES-BASKET BALL matter whether the University campuB was extended or removed, enough money should be given to do it prop erly As to the offer of the city of Lin coln to contract with the state to give $100,000 If the present campus was extended, it was argued that tho state was no charitable Institution and that tho "University was not for sale." It seems that the opinion of many was that the $100,000 was a bribe for ex tension. Under tho one-half mill tax It would take at lenst fifteen yoara to complete the removal, while with one mill tax It could be done In seven or eight yeais It was finally passed in the form of an amendment, that the state would not contract with the cit but would accept the $100,000 If gien without a contract The bill for removal was then voted on and defeated, f8 to L".t Some members were bioad enough . to ote ior extension artei tliey round"-" l"- "-1"""" "' "" ui-ncu mcurreu ......... . ........ ..ji ... 1V tlin PnlllllA,, . . m . uiai uie removal oni was ueieaiou, so the bill for extension passed by a vote of 80 to 17 The bill now goes to the senate During the afternoon the lobby and gallery were crowded with professors and students interested in the re moval question.

As a result of the first Annual Cotil lion, the II, nest and most elaborate ball Jin the history of the University dances, the two upper classes face a deficit not to be laughed at.

No expense was spared to make this dance one to be remembered in University circles, and there 1b not the slightest doubt but what the com mittee succeeded in their aim Several unfortunate circumstances occurred to lessen the number of cou ples, the alumni did not flock to the dance as had been predicted and the management found it very difficult to overcome the popular impression that a good formal could not be given at the Auditorium on account of the floor, accommodations and difficulty of dec orating. Though this was not bo, as was proved to the satisfaction of all who attended the dance, and it Is thought that future classes will not ex- t (Continued on Page 6.)
