Urges More Women Physicians for
State Board of Health
Grace M. Clark, '07. in a discussion
of Nebraska's "Present Political and
Social Questions," before the political
science seminar yesterday, stated that
the present board of health needed
more money, more employees and
more room for its work. She suggest
ed that women physicians be tried out
as health inspectors, as in general
women are more vitally interested in
health conditions than men.
Miss Clark, who is doing graduate
work in the University this year,
wrote this discussion after a thorough
siuoy i-f social condit r.ns not only in
Nebraska, but in other states. She
obtained her informaton from health
bulletins and articles, and from per
sonal interviews with state and coun
ty officials.
Several, times the noise from the

Mis j Clark, although she stood in the

HENRY J, ALLEN
TO SPEAK TONIGHT
FAMOUS EDITOR TO TALK AT 7:15
ON "JOURNALISM"
Accepts Prof. Fogg's Invitation to
Address Journalists General
Welcome
Henry J. Allen of Kansas, one of
the most prominent editors of the
west, has been secured by Prof. M. M.
Fogg to address the journalism
classes of the state University this
evening from 7:15 o'clock sharp to
7:45, In Law 101.
Mr. Allen is to be in Lincoln to
make a political adress at the auditor
ium this evening, and Professor Fogg
got his acceptance by telegraph yes
terday from Joplin, Mo., to come to
the University and speak to the stu
dents on "Journalism."
General Invitation
While the address will be especially
for the students in the news writing
course which meets Tuesday evening.
Professor Fogg has extended a gen
eral invitation to all of the students
and faculty interested in journalism
especially to the former members of
the journalism courses and to the
members of Sigma Delta Chi and The
ta Sigma Phi, the journalism frater
nity and sorority. He has also invited
newspaper men and women of Lincoln.
Mr. Allen Is a powerful speaker as
well as one of the best known editors
of the country. "His address to the
1912 republican convention in which
he delivered Roosevelt's last message
just before the party split," said Pro
fessor Fogg, "was one of the most im
pressive pieces of public sneaking I
ever heard."
OMAHA DREAMS OF
TURKEYDAY GAME
RUMORED NOTRE DAME BATTLE
TO BE TRANr ERRED
Denial by Guy E. Reed Missouri
Valley Rules Would Stand in
Way if lies i red
Omaha alumni of the University,
who have been striving in vain for
several years to get a Nebraska foot
ball game played in the metropolis,
were sources yesterday of a wild ru
mor to the effect that the game be
tween Nebraska University and Notre
Dame, scheduled in Lincoln for
Tranksgiving. would be transferred to
Omaha and played there Turkey Day.
Ross Chamberlen, assistant sport
ing editor of the World-Herald, tele
graphed to Lincoln for a confirmation
of the rumor. Guy E. Reed, manager
of Uunversity athletics, declared it
was nothing but a dream. Not only
has the athletic department no inten
tion of trying to change the game, but
it would be impossible to do so were
it wished for. on account of the Mis
souri Valley conference rules.
At the conference meeting last
spring. Chancellor Avery, the Univer
sity's representative, proposed a more
stringent rule, making it Impossible
for any school In the Missouri Valley
conference to play a game with any
other school, unless the battle were
staged on the home field of one of
the competing schools. This clearly
puts it out of the question for Nebras
ka to meet Notre Dame any other
place than Lincoln, or the Catholic
school's own home field, on Turkey
Day.

HIGH TRIBUTE PAID
JACK BEST IN OREGON
While the important story of the
Oregon football trip has been told in
the news cf the victory of the team,
and of the reception the football boys
and the band received from alumni
everywhere on their trip, one incident
or series of incidents has yet to bo
commented on.
That is the reception given Jack
Best, Cornhusker trainer, who made
the trip with the team.
Jack enjoyed the excursion .every
minute of the time. His talk above
all others, according to members of
the team, put the do or die spirit into
them before they trotted on Multno
mah field to give battle to the Aggies.
When Jack told them that -it was
probably the last long trip he would
ever take with a University team, and
that he wanted them to win, not a few
of the men felt that lump rise in their
throats.
When Jack went upon the football
field, hundreds of University alumni
and old Nebraskans who knew of him
and his work, stood up and cheered
again and again. It was a real ova
tion. And that night, when Jack entered
the banquet hall and went to his seat,
the banqueters arose in respect and
cheered again. A more sincere tribute
to a man who is loved because he has
unselfishly given to the University,
and asked nothing in return could not
be found.
FOOTRALL PICTURES
ALMOST DELAYED
Flying Trip to Chicago Secured Film
for Monday's Showing
The moving pictures of the Nebraska-Oregon
Aggie football game, which
are being shown at a local theater this
week, came very close to not being
shown at all, and were only secured
after a hurried trip to Chicago Sun
day by R. R. Livingstone, local man
ager. The negative of the film had been
sent to Chicago to be developed for
showing here. Saturday a telegram
from the film manufacturing company
stated that the film had arrived too
late to develop and to print the titles
in time to be shown in Lincoln Mon
day. Mr. Livingstone boarded the first
train for Chicago when he heard this,
and reached the big city after the
plant had been locked up. Finally he
secured a developer and an old Ger
man printer, and the three of them set
to work . All possible speed was
used, the job completed, and the film
packed. Mr. Livingstone leaped into
a taxi and reached the station Just as
the train was pulling out He leaped
aboard, the films were brought to Lin
coin, and the house showing them was
saved from a lot of complaints.
MISS POUND MAKES
NEW RECORD FOR
WOMAN GOLFERS
Miss Louise Pound, of the depart
ment of English literature, by avoca
tion state' goif champion of woman
players, has been doing some extraor
dinary playing on the country club
links this fall, although she has played
less golf than tennis.
Last Thursday Miss Pound played
the outside nine holes in 39, a better
performance than bogey and within
five strokes of the outside record. 34,
held by the club professional, Leslie
Davies. Miss Pound holed three mid
iron approach shots and saved 6 puts.
Bainicipdt
INJURIES KEEP 4
PROM PRACTICE
SHAW, MOSER, RHODES AND
GARDINER ARE HURT
Ames Team Coming Prepared to Make
Usual Strong Fight Against
Cornhusker
With half of their schedule behind
them and four hard games ahead, the
varsity reported for practice last even
ing minus the services of several of
the regulars.
Shaw, Moser, Gardiner and Rhodes
are all on the injured list, while Rid
dell has to keep out of the thick of
the scrimmage. Shaw is suffering
from a bad ankle which has swollen
to several times its normal size.
Rhodes has some torn muscles in his
thigh while Moser's side has not
healed completely and Riddell has a
broken internal blood vessel.
Coach Stewart is not to be outdone
by his men, and is suffering from a
severo cold. He was on the field but
had to be content with giving the men
a heart to heart talk about Ames and
then watching the scrubs go through
them for several scores.
Lots of Pep
The scrubs had lots of pep last
night, with Rutherford and Halligan
in the lineup.
Rutherford played his old Btyle
smashing game mixed with some ex
pert forward passes. All of which
kept the varsity guessing and up in
the air most of the time.
Ames plays were used, and the as
sistant coach used them so well that
Walter Camp will probably put him
on his ail-American myth this year.
The varsity showed a tendency to
be lazy and as a result missed several
easy tackles.
An attempt wil be made this week
to instill some real fighting spirit into
the team. Ames has never. In all the
history of football between the two
schools, failed to fight harder against
Nebraska than any team on their
schedule.
Aggies Have Rest
The Aggies come here with a week's
rest, having scheduled no game for
last Saturday. Every first string man
will be in the best of condition and
prepared to put up a great battle.
A week from last Saturday the
lowans were held by the strong Mis
souri team to a scoreles tie. But in
this game the Tigers were all wear
ing horseshoes, as the game ended
with the ball in Ames' posession on
the Missouri two-inch line.
Missouri has a strong eleven, but
even then were lucky to escape a de
feat at the hands of the husky farm
ers. Ames Team of Vets
Ames has a team of veterans, the
most prominent of whom are Mess
and Aldrlch. Moss is a third season
quarterback and one of the best open
field runners in the valley. Aldrich
is the youth who made the 73-yard
run against the Cornhuskers last year,
just as the game opened. That is
enough of a recommendation for any
man.
Add to all this the fact that they
have a coses who knows his men and
who has sworn vengeance on the Corn
huskers and everyone can see what
Nebraska will be up against next aSt
urday. Helena Mitchell, A. B '11, A. M, '16,
of Lincoln, is studying decorative art
in New York City this year. Miss
Mitchell had charge of the extension
work of the rhetoric department last
year.
