Prof. George R. Chatburn
For the successful establishment of
the S. A. T. C. at the TJniversity of
Nebraska as well as at all the smaller
colleges of the state. Professor George
George R. Chatburn of the university
is directly responsible. Back in
August of this year when the decision
to place S. A. T. C. detachments in the
leading colleges of the country was
reached by the war department. Pro
fessor Chatburn was selected as the
logical man at Nebraska' to conduct
the publicity campaign preparatory to
the establishment of units in the
schools and colleges of Nebraska.
His appointment as director of pub
licity came through the American
Council of Education, through which
sent to every prospective university
student, high school graduate and
others eligible to the corps.
The result of this extensive cam
paign was the application of over
1.600 men and their Induction Into
military service through the chan
nels of the student army training
corps at the University of Nebraska.
The large enlistment at the university
was accompanied by proportion
ately large enrollment 8 at smaller col
leges throughout the state, placing
Nebraska near the top In S. A. T. C.
work.
Although Professor Chatburn's du
ties as state director were general,
his interests centered In the univer
sity where, in addition to his public
ity wcrk. he is also connected with
the military department In instructing
university soldiers. Since early last
summer. Professor Chatburn has been
'assistant educational director of Sec
tion "H." the vocational training de
partment. And in addition to these
extensive duties, he still remains head
of the department of applied mechan
ics where he conducts this work of
the engineering college on a larger
scale than ever.
Book Remains Unpublished
On the shelves of Professor Chat
burn's office lie the manuscripts of a
ltook concerning the construction of
modern roadways, a subject in which
he is vitally interested. The proofs
have been read, the matter edited, and
the publishers are ready for the book.
All that remains is to make the few cor
rections suggested by the editor. But
Professor Chatburn's time has been
too completely occupied with the uni
versity's war work to think of his own
affairs and the book remains unfinish
ed. With the termination of the war
and the probable dismemberment of
the S. A. T. C. Professor Chatburn
hopes to publish the results of his efforts.
Jack Best, Father of "N" Boys,
Still Cares for Husker Heroes
A ruddy, little, white-haired man
with the blackest of eyebrows, the
nrerriest of smiles, and the most
sparkling of eyes, whose home is in
the Armory and whose children are
the "N" boys, this is Jack Best, more
popularly known as Jack.
Although his story has been told
over and over again, because of the
originality and the quaint lingo of its
hero, its freshness is never exhausted
nor its interest slackened. Service
has been the motto which for seventy
three years has moulded the character
and brightem-d the face of "the ol'
man." Even now, in spite of the fact
that rheumatism gives him much
trouble, he never lets a moment slide
by without doing something for some
body else. To his nimble fingers and
active mind has been entrusted the
task of caring for the injuries of all
the men of the football squad, and in
his own words, "It jus' keeps me busy
from morning till night, bandging
up me boys."
Besides this he is chief "rubber",
enconrager. and consoler for the Ne
braska eleven. His optimism and
hopes for the team never flag.
"We've got a team that can beat any
team agoin when they've got the grit;
and now that ihe basketball season's
coniin' on I hope that all the boys
will get out for it and make Nebraska
win."
Introduced Football
Football would not be football at j
Nebraska without JacK uesi uenmu
it. for it was he who introduced the
game into the university twenty-nine
years ago when he first came here
as a night watchman, he who was sole
trainer for several years, and he who
pave first aid to injured on the battle
field for twenty seasons. About seven
years ago a fall down the gym stairs,
which resulted in rheumatism, be
cause Jack could not remain inactive
while victory for his Husker lads was
hanging in the balance, crippled him
for life. He had to give up his be
loved work on the gridiron but he
soon found his place in the armory
where he became, and has remained
the idol of every team.
Jack is an Englishman, the youngest
of eighteen children and the father
of eleven. He was extremely devoted
to his wife and it was .through her
that ht ranre to America. She dream
ed that their son, who was then in
America, had fallen from a horse and
was badly injured. A month later
Jack had the same dream so they
packed up and came to see for them
selves. Finding their son all right,
they, came to Lincoln where Jack got
his first job in the Armory.

Jack Best
As a tokvn of their appreciation of
his services to the school, the students
of the university once took up a col
lection to send Jack back to visit "the
ol' country." He took his daughter
with him and while there he gathered
numerous choice stories which bright
en his face as he tells them and which
his friends never tire of hearing.
In the excitement of football vic
tories and praises for the team, the
coach, and the student body, too
much glory cannot be given to this
man who, as a father, gives his heart,
mind and strength to making his boys,
the "S" boys, what they are.
