This convoca tion is open 'to the whole school and, as it is an annual affair and one of the important convocations of the year, it is expected that -Memorial Hall will be full. In an interview, Prof. Gruman says: "As atip to Freshmen and to a good many old students as well who have not gone to the trouble to find It out, you will miss the most important of the good things that the University has to offer if you do not get the con vocation habit to start with."

In the last issue of the Indiana Alumni 'Magazine considerable space was given to an article by Professor Grumann of 'Nebraska Fine Arts depart ment. The title of the article was "Training In Art," the name suggest ing well the contents of the article. Nebraskans may view with pride the- well earned recognition the presence of Professor Grumann's article has given him. During his supervision both the (Art School and Convocation have grown in use, popularity and recognition. This year he purposes to add to the splendid collection of paint ings already in the studio, -10 foreign masters and 10 American. 'New addi tions to the collection are, '-'Marble Hermes," donated by Mrs. F. N. Gib son, and a volume of beautiful Japan ese color paintings by Professor Guern sey Jones. Helen Scott of Beatrice Is the guest of Lincoln friends this week. STEWART RESIGNS AS mt&m editor Pressed by Law Work Long Deferred. It Is with a great deal of regret that the Nebraskan announces the resigna tion of CIdyd L. Stewart, managing editor. Stewart announces as bis rea son for shifting the "white man's bur den" that a senior in the Law college has his hands full without trying to run-a paper. Stewart announced to the staff that be may be a candidate for the position of editor-in-chief next semester. Burton S. Hill, ex. '12, of Nebraskan literary fame and later registered at the University of Michigan Law School, is registered again in the Lit erary department, ia' which he will be an assistant under Professor Buck. GUY CHAMBERLAIN RETURNS Hoeffle Chosen Assistant Coach Grid iron Has Been Completely Re sodded and Otherwise' Improved. (By H. 1 Kyle) The formal opening of the football' season today finds the clouds that have been hovering on the Nebraska horizon largely dispelled. One of the gloomiest of these rolled itself bash fully from view Saturday when Guy Chamberlain appeared on the campus and registered as one of us. Chamber lain's absence this year would have meant a hole in the backfield that Coach Stiehm would have found very difficult to fill. Another vexatious problem has been fittingly laid to r$st by the choosing of Joe Hoeffel, for two years all-western end at Wisconsin, and captain of the Badgers in nineteen-twelve, to be Continued on page 8 THE CLASS DF 1914 NOW OUT OF DEBT Nice Balance Left With Which to Purchase Present Choice Made by Election. - Awaiting the decision of the ques tion of University removal or campus extension, state general fund war rants to the amount of $157.19 lie on deposit in the Student Activities office. This amount represents the money earned and set aside by the class of 1914 for a gift to their Alma Mater. This fund is worthy of more than passing note, representing as it does a year of bard work on the part of every member in the class. At the beginning of the school year last September the class was shoulder ing a debt of $163.05, and until this was liquidated no class play could be given. Perhaps no one but a "four teener" can recall the struggle to re move this first obstacle from their path. By dint of hard work the neces sary money was raised from hops, proms and an issue of fifty-nine notes, taken by members of the class at a dollar each. On May 5 the treasurer's coffers were swelled by a deposit of $209.73, the proceeds from the class play, "The Fortune Hunter." The hop at Capital Beach added $17.50y the Ivy Day picnic netted over $41.00 and $41.41 was received from the invita tion committee. These activities and a few sundries raised the total profits to $475.39. The outstanding bills and the redeeming of all but afew of the notes left the above amount for the donation. . ? The entire class showed commenda ble interest and spirit in this under taking and too much credit can nbl be given those who had the matter in' charge. The nature of the gift is entirely a matter of speculation, T. A. Williams of the Student Activities committee being of the opinion that a vote will, he. taken this fall to decide Jts selec tlon. - iralfr-llifrf
