sum total will show a material in
crease over the $7,000 now available.
The spirit that pervadea the Univer
sity may, perhaps, be best illustrated
by quoting two paragraphs from Dr.
Stewart's statement to me on the same
date as this announcement.
"I believe it only just to the football
boys, both varsity and freshmen
teams, that the officers of the Red
Cross be informed of the fine spirit
with which our football boys worked
this fall in order to insure a substan
tial donation to Red Cross. At times
players participated in Btrenuous
scrimmage on the field while wearing
shoes which lacerated their feeet be
cause the policy of the department did
not encourage large purchases of
equipment. The boys never showed
the least sign of objection to economy
practiced on trips and in every way
are deserving of the appreciation of
the Red Cross officers, joining heartily
with me in this gift as a representation
of their fine efforts.
At the meeting of the Missouri Val
ley Conference men at Kansas City
last week, reports from all managers
showed that Nebraska was the only
institution finishing" the football sea
son with a surplus in the treasury. As
nearly as reports can be gathered
from other institutions throughout the
country nearly every treasury has suf
fered and yet is continuing to encour
age sports at the expense of a serious
drainage of surpluses. Also let me
call your attention to the fact that as
nearly as data can be gathered Ne
braska is the only institution in the
United States whose athletic depart
ment donated every cent and more of
the profits of the entire year to Red
Cross. Some institutions have donat
ed ten per cent, but to my best knowl
edge no other school ha3 done its bit
to win the war as generously as has
Nebraska."
In making this preliminary an
nouncement of the condition of ath
letic finances in the University, per
mit me also to name Director Stewart,
assisted by Business Agent Williams,
as an important factor in reducing op
erating expenses and in getting the
Department of Athletics into a good
financial condition. It is believed the
annual financial report will show that
operating expenses since the Univer
sity itself, took over the financial man
agement of athletics, have been re
duced over $13,000, as compared with
the preceding year.
It is needless to say that at the end
of the year a full financial report will
be published and that in the meantime
every effort will be made to swell the
Red Cross fund.
Yours very sincerely,
S. AVERY,
Chancellor.

fully with Dr. Stewart, director of
athletics, and Mr. T. A. Williams, bus
iness agent. I find that the Athletics
department of the University is now in
a position to turn over at once $7,000
to the Red Cross fund. Taking into
consideration the fact that last sea
son produced u net loss of $4,500 and
that the receipts for this year fell off
on account of the lack of Interest in
sports due to the war, the economics
practiced in order to produce this re
markable result are evident.
No small credit is due to the Com
mercial club, the Rory club, the Red
Cross and other organizations who
have 'bo efficiently endeavored to in
crease the gate receipts. We hope,
further, that this interest will con
tinue and that the later sports of the
year can be handled in such a way
that, when the final settlement for the
year is made with the Red Cross, the
