Thursday, May 28, 1914 SOCIAL WHIRLS AND TWIRL8 OF FIRST SEME8TER (Continued irom page 1) largely In dinners, luncheons and teas, came to an end Saturday, October 11th, amidst much weeping and smil ing, last appeals and final farewells. As a whole, the rushing Boason waB considered very satisfactory, and much better feeling prevailed among the sororities than at tho end of last year's rushing. Will anyone over forget October the 18lh, "tho day of tho Minnesota- Nphrnikn gntno; liy whch Nnhrnwlnt again won notable honors. At noon that day the Girls' Club held their an nual luncheon at St. Paul's church. Real Nebraska spirit, good things to eat and hear, were manifest Tho nvbolerowd-ontT5iTTmBWlroTntlfo luncheon to the game, where they filled the section reserved for them. The next week end was well patron ized by such organizations as still up hold and celebrate Hallowe'en. Ghosts, goblins ad pumpkin heads ap peared, and walks, signs and other property disappeared as tho result of these gatherings. The first University Hop was the -Engineers;. given November8thr-at the LlncolnHotol. "Memories-of-this-dance seem to be largely in the line , of strenuous attempts to keep the rules in regard to dancing. Great dif ficulty was reported. The initial Girls' Club kenslngton was held at the Temple, Saturday, K .November llith, The first ono was so w.wwuw.yw i.uuv iv MHO 1UIIUHCU UJ Villi every week throughout the year until the outdoor attractions of spring inter fered. ' The sophomores held tho first class hop at the Lincoln Hotel, November 22nd. This affair was yery success ful, and because the habit had been acquired through necessity, the old dances were thoroughly enjoyed. Afler Thanksgiving recess, tho first events of note were the annual Corn husker banquet and the newly-Installed girls' Cornhusker party. It is hard to say which was the more suc cessful, and probably no unanimous Tote could be obtained, but at apy rate, 'there is no doubt but that the girls' party will be annual because of Its JnitiaT success. Tlie following night came, the Fresh, man. Hop, or stampede as it has teen called. At any rate, every one seems to enjoy it, for tho crowd increases noticeably every year. l On January 7th camo out headlines, -whlch-wcrc-not-then-considered-of-a- social naturo, but which In later effects caused several social revolutions. This notice was to the effect that a student council had been proposed at an associated meeting of the Girls' llibf-J31ackIa8queand--Innocents.. The plans wore to T3e formulated in tho near future and submitted to the -fltudont-body-so-that-the-orgnnizatlon might becomo effective next fall. Thus Is the uncertainty of human plans exemplliled. However, Trextfnliwlll no doubt see tho council started, if not in good working order. Tho Military Ball, tho first formal of tho year, was given January 9th nt the Lincoln. It was certainly ono of tho most successful of theso balls ever given. Coming, as it did, Immediately after the removal of tho ban from tho new dancos, tho enjoyment was par ticularly groat. The sonlors opened the new ball room of the Llndoll with a very Uvoly party, which waB Justly termed one of the classiest dances of the year. The result of this success wus the com petition between tlie Lincoln and Lin doll hotels, which not only amused University students, but also added fraternally and financially to their en joyment of dances at these halls. The season of tho first semestor's social affairs was ended in the grand splurge of the Junior Prom and the men's Pan-Hellenic banquet. The Junior Prom may be remembered not only as a very' successful social event, but aB a financial boon to the junior class, which was in need of such lifts. The Cornhusker banquet is reported to have been particularly graced with napkin decorations on the chandeliers. University Notices Clothes Out.

Captain Laubach has been Tn TTansas, "Missouri ancf Nebras ka inspecting tho schools to which army ofllcers have been dotalled to ovorseo the Instruction of the cadet corps. Need of Officers Felt. "When, the Spanish-American war came we had plenty of volunteers, all the men and more than were needed," Captain Laubach said. "But there was a shortage of officers. We had not men to put in command of the com- -panles-Bkillcd-in-tho-handllng-or-care-; of men. Immediately after that war tho government entered upon a policy of making the military instruction at the schools and colleges that had a cadet corps more practical. "Perfect knowledge of drills was not so essential as giving the cadets a thorough knowledge of camp sanita tion and tho handling of men so that half the company would not be in the hospital in a few months. The ofllcers detailed to the schools as instructors havo been giving the cadet corps prac tical instruction. Each year there are graduated or turned out from the many BCholB at which the. government keeps Instructors approximately 8,000 graduates young men who not only know tho manual, but' who have a general knowledgo about the com manding of a company. Proficient Men on List. "Every year the army ofllcors at tached to the schools send to the War department a list of the more pro ficient men who leave the cadet, corps. men-who-ln-their-oplnlon-havo-sufi. flcient knowledgo to act at once as lieutenants or even captains. These names are carefully compiled at tho War department. Each year the list is sent out for correction of addresses. The-exact-address-of each of these- names sent In as proficient Is kept for eight or ten years, whon they are dropped to make room for new lists. "For example, there is a list of forty-four names of mon who leave the University of Nebraska this year who aro capable of commanding a company or acting as lieutenants. Of course, it is optional with these college -men whether they shall enlist In event vol unteers jro cullM for.
