NEW COMMANDANT AP
POINTED FOR NEDRASKA
Strict Disciplinarian Ranks as a Ma
jorWill Take Charge Next Fall.
Major J. S. Switzer will succeed
Lieutenant Bowman as commandant
here next yoar. Tho abovo news Item
will bo of Interest to all who are In
tending to oxtond their military edu
cation next yoar. It will alBO be of
Interest to know that Major Switzer
comes recommended as a strict disci
plinarian.
ThiB Is tho flrat time In ten yeara
that a commandant hua been assigned
a University position who rankB as
high as a major. The notice of the
appointment was sent to Chancellor
Avery by tho Secretary of War.
Major Switzer at present is sta
tioned at Fort Crook and comes very
highly recommended for the position.
Ho will assume bis duties at Ne
braska next fall, unless unforseen
circumstances arise which require his
attention elsewhere. It 1b thought that
nothing short of war will Interfere
with tho fulfillment of the appoint
mont.
Lieutenant Bowman will rejoin his
company after two years' service at
Nebraska. The term of service for a
university commandant Is usually
Bhort. Nebraska has been particularly
fortunate in obtaining Lieutenant
Bowman as the head of the Military
Department and hlB many friends re
grot that he must return to the regu
lar service.
NEBRASKA ENTITLED TO
TWO REPRESENTATIVES
The Fourth International Congress of
American 8tudents to Meet
In Chile.
V. P. Claxton, Commissioner of Edu
cation, In a letter to Chancellor Avery,
stated that tho executive officers of
tho universities and colleges In vari
ous parts of the country were entitlod
to tho privilege of nominating from
among their undergraduates, prefer
ably second Bemester Juniors, two rep
resentatives to the Fourth Interna
tional CongresB of American Students
to be held at Santiago, Chllo, in July
of thiB year. The United States was
not properly represented at the last
Congress because tho delegation was
hastily and unofficially chosen. It is
therefore especially desirable that the
next delegation be carefully selected
In order to establish the most friendly
and profitable relations between the
United States and the Latin-American
countries.
It is expected that the delegates will
have to pay their own traveling ex
penses, but a fund will be provided for
tho purpose of entertaining the repre
sentatives of other countries and to
reciprocate courtesies shown.

A pleasant and lucrative visit was
paid to the Chancellor's office yoster
day by an lumnua of many years'
standing. After modestly recalling
his acquaintance with several mem
bers of the faculty, he exchanged a
few reminiscences with the office
force and handed to the Chancellor an
envelop with this inscription: "For
the Football Team." Imagine the
-Chancellor's Joyful amazement when,
upon opening tho lotter, ho found that
It contained two bright and criap $100
bills. Although tho beneficent guest
did not remain In tho office or oven
on tho campus long enough to receive
tho many expressions of thanka that
were extended to him by me common
consent of all who heard about his
gift, ho carries with him the everlast
ing gratitude of tho entire University
community. In convoying tho glad
news to officers of tho administration,
and In turning over to tho Athlotic
Board for investment by them this ex
traordinary tribute to Nebraska's
prowess, tho Chancellor remarked that
the University had not in years re
ceived such a token and recalled that,anv "s'ouch" affair.
the giving of anonymous presents to
University activities was once a much
favored custom. Everyone was
touched with the fine and unselfish
sentiment that prompted this excep
tional act, and many expressed the
wish that the gencrouB and prosperous
given might not have withheld from
the public a name to which so much
credit and honor is duo.
