This line-up will cause a now interest
in tho trip. Two weeks ago when
Coach Kline's Coyotes took tho Husk
ers to a cleaning, Coach Stolhm's live

pected to be different.
The gamo tonight promlBCB to be a
real battle. Hugg will start tho game
at forward -with Captain HaskelL
"Seven" Meyers will start at center,
but in case tho gamo 1h laid on ico in
the llrst half It Is llkoly that Finley
will finish tho game, saving Meyers
for tho double-header with Minnesota

guard positions will bo held down by
Hawkins and Rutherford. Theso men
will be relieved by Howard and Hanz
lik. Shields will bo used as substitute
for the forward positions.
Although registration week mussed
up basketball practice, tho big fault
which has been tho Inability to hang
on to tho ball has been remedied.

"TANGO TEA" LATEST
NOVATION OF 80CIETY
Imported Dancing Professor to Culture
Students In Neglected Art.
Are you going to tho "Tango Tea"?
Or Is it a "Tho Dansant"? Or, in fact,
is there any tea at all Just tango?
But tho tango, well Borved, is enough
for tho most exacting. And they do
say there Is to be SOME service. An
honost-to-goodnoss professional tango
man and his dancing partner have
been imported from Omaha to show
tho boys how It 1b done.
This Is tho first venturo of Its kind
at Nebraska, but It 1b by no means
new to the college world. Chicago
University 1b about to Btart a class In
tango Instruction. Students have peti
tioned tho faculty to establish tho
class In lieu of gm work. Practically
all tho students have signed tho peti
tion. Tho faculty have no objections.
In tho opinion of the Daily Maroon,
tho petition will bo granted in tho near
future.
What would you say if, when tho
University catalogue comes out next
spring, you saw an announcement of
tho newly croated Department of the
Tango and Allied Dances? Tako this
as a warning. Perhaps tho impossible
may not be so Impossible after all.
But just now It looks as if we must
resort to private parties to quench tho
burning thirBt for knowledge. Tho
University is failing to Instruct us in
the most Important singlo(?) science
of today. More money, more time,
more energy is spent today on the
tango than on all other serious inves
tigations. And yet we have to go to
a private school for training. The
first class, which will Instruct begin
ners as well as "old heads," will meet
in L(indell) Hall, Saturday afternoon
at 2:30 p. m.
JUNIOR HOP AT LINDELL
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 28
Last Informal of First 8emester
Regime Scheduled for Last
Day of Month.
The Junior Hop committee Iuib made
its announcement Liko all such
bodioB, they are vory modest In tho
presentation of tho poBltivo merits of
their dance. But here it is, the bona
flde "dope" on tho big event. Judge
for yourself:
"As the last danco given under tho
auspices of tho flrBt semester regime,
tho Junior Hop waa announced yester
day as scheduled for February 28, the
last day of the month (really, know?)
and on Saturdaj night Tho place will
bo the Now Llndell Ball Room, made
bo famous by the successful Senior
Hop recently held there.
"Since tho class of 1916 is entirely
out of debt through the success of the
Junior Prom, every cent taken in will
bo spent in giving tho beBt Informal
of tho year. Programs will bo some
thing out of tho ordinary and will bo
worth keeping as favors. Tho refresh
ments are promised by Mr. Johnson of
tho Llndell as the best that ho can
furnish and he guarantees that no slip
will occur In tho quality, Buch aa was
experienced at the Lincoln at the
Junior Prom. The music will be
largely tangos and hesitations, owing
to tho demand being made by student
sentiment for melody of this type.
Tickets will cost $1.25 and one hun
dred and ten will be Issued. The com
mittee ,-has cut tho price usually
charged for University informals bo-

Marguerite Farloy, treasurer Many
different clubs and mission classes of

consequent lack of room this feature
of the program had to be omitted,

Interesting talks of the meeting was
in rogunl to the work of Miss King in
China. Another talk foatured the sup
port given to missionaries and to Miss
King In particular. Mission study

speakers. This seemed to bo tho prin
cipal topio of tho evonlng. After sev
eral members of tho faculty were
given an opportunity to make im
promptu talks, tho enthusiastic moot
ing camo to a close with tho singing
of tho association hymn. Miss Condo,
a missionary, will spend a woek In
Lincoln during March.
Miss Bonnott, tho now president,
served as treasurer of the association
during the past year. Sho has shown
an unusual amount of interest In girls'
work and is especially fitted for the
position to which she has been elected.
Sho 1b a Sophomoro in the Agricul
tural College. Her homo is in Lin
coln. Installation of the newly elected ofH
cors will occur some time next spring.
Tho faculty at the University of
Minnesota are considering the adop
tion of the "quarter system" in the
agricultural college. By this plan tho
school year !s divided into four quar
ters instead of halves. Examinations'
are to be given at the end of each
quarter. This system 1b considered
especially desirable for agricultural
students, who find it difficult to return
to school as early as September, and
for those earning their expenses.
