flMas tbe 0ame it the Square
The faculty is opposed to cheating in examinations we have absolutely nothing to say in
its favor ntul every student who knows right from wrong will oppose the DISGRACEFUL
PRACTICE. It is not expected that you will "squeal" on anyone you see "cribbing" or
cheating, but you play the game square your self and show the other fellow that you think
less of him if he trys getting URADES WITHOUT EARNING THEM.
The student who is inclined to use QUESTIONABLE METHODS in getting a passing
grade in examinations feels guilty during the entire examination period. You know that.
Let him know that YOU KNOW THAT HE IS NOT PLAYING THE GAME ON THE
SQUARE.
Help establish a STUDENT SENTIMENT AGAINST DISHONESTY in examinations
don't make it necessary for the faculty members to appoint a number of deputies because
tlu-v feel that THE FELLOW NEXT TO YOU is not on the square.

HAVE COMMITTEE ON DUTIES
Prof. Caldwell and His Associates Will
Determine the Duties of Newly
Elected Coach
The Committee on Duties was ap
pointed and the trackand football
schedules approved at the meeting of
the Athletic Board, yesterday.
Trof. H. W. Caldwell is chairman
of the committee to determine the
various duties of the newly elected
head coach, assistant coach and assist
ant director; E. B. Scott, and Dr. R.
G. Clapp are the other members.
Only one date Is open in the 1916
football schedule now, October 21. The
games scheduled are: Drake at Lin
coln, October 7.. Kansas Aggies at
Lincoln. October 14: Ames ai w
. . . f in.
i VAromhcr 14: wesieyan i
coin' November 11; Kansas at Lin-
coin. November 18; Iowa at Iowa u ).
November 23; and Notre Dame at Lin
coln. November 0.
The following track meets have
been scheduled for this spring: Ames
at Lincoln. April 30; Kansas at Law
rence. May 6; Minnesota at Lincoln.
Mav 20; Missouri Valley meet at Co
lumbia. May 27; and Big Nine confer
ence meet. June 3.
If Coach Johnnie Bender of the
Kansas Aggies has his way, Guy Cham
berlain, Ail-American end, will not play
football for Nebraska in l'16, accord
ing to an exclusive story in the Lin
coln Star last evening.
Bender, it seems, has been ' inves
tigating' Chamberlain"s eligibility on
his own hook, and having found what
he considers damaging evidence, has
tipped off authorities of the different
Kansas schools that a protest against
the playing of Chamberlain is m or-
der.
The 'evidence"' upon which Ben
der bases his claim is that Chamber
lain i.layed two years as a Wesieyan
collegian, instead of one year as an
academic and one year as a freshman
as found by the committee cn his
eligibility appointed by the Nebraska
Athletic board. If Chamberlain s rec
ord at Wesieyan includes two years as
a student in Wesieyan university, he
is ineligible to participate in his third
year of intercollegiate football.
When interviewed yesterday. As
sistant Director Guy Reed said that
the Nebraska authorities would take
immediate action, summing up the
citnatinn as follows:
"The information in our hands all
along has justified the belief that
Chamberlain would be eligible for foot
ball in 191?. but if it develops that he
ts not eligible then that will end the
argument. We have too much at stake
to run any risks of protests, filed by
Johnny Bender or anyone else, after
the football season has started next
fall The eligibility committee of the
v.fcM.i,. hnard will give the subject
its attention. Nebraska looks to other
farpnfe to en-
instituiions m
The Drake Bulldogs, who seem not
to have profited by the two defeats
handed them by the Cornhuskers last
winter, are coming to Lincoln again
Friday and Saturday, for two games.
After the pleasing showing Nebras
ka made against the Jayhawks, Husk
er rooters are confident that the his
tory of last year will repeat itself as
far as the Bulldogs are concerned.
But the Des Moines five holds the op
posite opinion, basing it very logically
upon the fact that four old men are
again in the service.
Practice Monday and Tuesday after
noons was fast and "pepful."' Speed
seems to be the keynote of Sam
Waugh's coaching, for the men are de
veloping some whirlwind formations
which look decidedly good. Jimmy
Gardiner, Campbell, Nelson and Ruth
erford have been showing up to spe
cial advantage.
As it looks now, the probable line
up against Drake will be the same as
that against Kansas: Rutherford and
Campbell, forwards. Shields and Nel
son, center; Captain Hugg and Gardi
ner forwards.
Nebraska and Missouri seem to be
forging ahead in the conference race.
Nebraska took Kansas into camp for
two games; Kansas divided two with
Missouri won both of her
1 1 1 O , - .
games from the Aggies. Has Missouri
the edge?
URGE PERMANENT GLEE CLUB
Expect to Give One Hours u.eait for
for the Work Much Need
for the Club
Prof. Edward Clark Persinger spoke
of several of the phases dealing with
the work of the Latin-American states
at Convocation yesterday.
"Everyone is awaiting the develop
ment of the Monroe Doctrine," pro
nounced Prof. Persinger, "for the State
Right Doctrine by President Wilson is
negative and does not help the United
States to solve the problems dealing
with South America.
"The development of an Internation
al scientific congress in South Amer
ica." continued Prof. Persinger, "helps
in the dealing with natural science
problems. This congress has helped
to spread and bring about many of
the scientific problems of both South
and North America.1
That an organization of co-operation
injhe Latin-American states has ac
complished three important things was
his thought. First, a financial dealing-
established secure money for
trade; second, a development of re
sources brought about beneficial re
sults, and third, this organization put
the flag on the Pacific ocean again.
"But one cannot speak of South
America without mentioning the re
ligious toleration," continued Prof.
Persinger. "Peru has at last permit
ted religious toleration, but not until
today had any non-Roman Catholic
dared to hold public worship. In the
month of February, a most important
conference will be held in the Latin-
American states for the promotion of
Christian work. The revolutions in
South American states are still in
view. Argentine is free; Chili has
just escaped a revolution, or is get
ting ready for one; Peru has just re
covered and Brazil is recovering from
the one of 1913."
Mentioning these important interests
in connection with South America,
Prof. Persinger stated that as he had
started with the oldest, he would leave
off with the newest hings in South
America.
Will or will not Nebraska have a
permanent Glee club? Several years
ago Nebraska bad an excellent club.
It took trips out through the state,
putting on very good programs. These
trips were pronounced well worth the
while, both to the audience and to the
members of the society.
There Is to be a Glee club this
year. This is the threat that it must
be a success this year must have

SELF HELPS FOR THE SOLDIER
Book Is Written Primarily for the
Citizen Soldier Treats
of Defenses
The Daily Nebraskan is in receipt of
a copy of the book, "Self Helps for the
Citizen Soldier." The authors are
Captain James A. Moss and Captain
M. B. Stewart of the United States
army.
The book is written primarily for
the citizen soldier in an effort to con
vey to him in a more or less enter
taining form a few elemantary prin
ciples of the training of the fighting
man.
This book treats of our defenses,
the kind of and the making of a fight
ing man. organized militia, the organ
ization of student and business men's
camps, how battles are fought, and
practical hints for self preparation.
At this time, when the topic of na
tional preparedness is absorbing so
much attention from everyone, this
book will answer many questions
which arise in the non-military man'a
mind.
