These section managers insist that it is very impor tant that the pictures be in early. P. C. Spencer, the Senior managing editor, is outlining the book. He prom ises new features and a book conserv ative enough to compare well with the books of large institutions. The "School Life" Section will be written by every person interested enough to contribute. Contribution boxes will soon be placed in easily accessible places. The only drawback to the work so far is the slowness of the Juniors and Seniors to have individual pictures taken. The Junior and Senior panels re of a neat design. The Juniors should be happy that they are given better treatment Their pictures will not be crowded as heretofore and their honors will be printed. This means a true Junior-Senior year book. A very urgent request is made for all Juniors and Seniors to attend to these pictures at once to help the staff fo getting out a book that rep resents the whole school.

LAWS WORK OVERTIME Many Evidences of Activity In the Library Other Newt of the "Shop" Those Indomitable: Laws sprang a new one, Saturday evening, when some one of their number succeeded In causing one of the water pipes to burst thereby flooding the basement of the Law building. It Is charged that the Laws have given up hope of the ice rink that was to be on the Athletic Held, and sooner than be deprived of a place where they could do the "Pigeon Wing," or cut the "Figure Eight," or even do the "Charlie Chaplin" on the guilded runners resorted to this means of making an ice rink. The Laws deny that there was any such plot afoot and base their argu ment on the ground that the examina lions are to begin Saturday and that they are too busy "cramming" even to think of such a thing. The fact that there are more students to be found in the library than is customary, together with the appearance of soft collars, neglected beards and long- drawn faces, tell only too plainly that the fast approaching crisis is too grave to convict any of their number on the evidence at hand.

No tryout has been held thus far this year, because of the fact that the sentiment of the committee has been that the programs for the last few years have been failures. The cause of this has been, they believe, that the boys have slumped on the work after a few reherasals and as a re sult the programs have shown a lack of preparation. It seems deplorable that a University which turns out such excellent results in other lines cannot put out a creditable Glee club. One hour credit will be given for the work. There will be four rehear sals a week until after University Week. These will come at 1 o'clock Mondays and Wednesdays, at 7 o'clock Tuesdays and at 5 o'clock Fridays. with the chorus. These hours must be arranged for at registration by those who make the club. Unexcused absences from more than three re hearsals will cause the loss of the credit. The committee in announcing this tryout, puts in into the hands of the students to show that the club can be maintained. If the program this year is not one that will do credit to the University, there will be no club next year. Therefore let all loyal Nebraskans who can sing turn out next Wednesday evening. Old mem bers must tryout as well as prospec tive members. First tenors are espe cially urged to tryout. A short solo is all that will be needed. . ,. 4 .....

SENIOR PROM GOMES FEBRUARY FIFTH PUNIOR PROM AND NEBRASKAN ELECTIONS NOW IN PAST EXAMS WILL THEN 1BE OVER Social Plane Will Be Readjusted in Next Few Weeke Many Cram ming Sessions Will Precede the Event The Senior Prom is coming Febru ary 5. It is a thing of the present. The Junior Prom is now history. It has been relegated to the dim past, along with the Nebraskan elections and the 5-cent movies. Nothing re mains but pleasant memories and the bills at the clothiers and the florists. Social evenings have lost their charm because of the approaching examina tions. Everyone has begun to "cram" and dealers in the midnight oil have taken a new lease on life. The Sen iors are applying themselves diligent ly for fear that some of their dear professors will place a stumbling block in their paths and thus prevent their acceptance of the humble but honest positions offered them by their local contractors, that of digging ditches in the construction work of some of our great trunk lines. The social plane of the University will be readjusted within the next two weeks. Those who have studied hard and taken class notes will find themselves in the upper strata, while those who have sniffed will be trying to convince the industrious ones that they are probably the finest fellows on earth, and that they ought to cram to gether. This condition, however, will exist only for a short time; until the "exams" are over. Then we will all be equals again, and will be looking around for some place to celebrate. The Seniors had this condition of things in mind when they chose the date for the Senior Prom, one week after the professors have finished their semi-yearly . depredations among the student body. By that time wo will have fully recovered from their at tacks and will have assumed out nor mal poise. The "social lines" will have recuperated sufficiently to let out their customary roar. February 5 is the date. Don't forget it. Report Early for Picture Newspaper men are always modest, but the members of The Dally Ne braskan staff especially are the quin tesence of modesty. Saturday morn ing, six reporters clad in their best, presented themselves at Townsend's studio in order to have their pictures taken. The photographer, although he wished to please them, firmly re fused to do anything before Saturday, January 22, when he has an engage ment with the Nebraskan for that pur pose. The reporters declare that the notice in the paper was misleading, but those who did not go, say other- i wise. Senior Debating Team Chris Weber of Friei , Orville Chatt of Enid, Okla, and Ben H. Burritt of Alnsworth, have been selected to rep resent the Senior Class in the Inter class debates. Weber is a student in the College of Arts and Sciences and Chatt and Burritt are both In the College of Law.
