STUDENTS TO SPEND
FULL DAY IN OMAHA
Special Train Will Leave Lincoln
at 8 :20 a. m., Returning at
11:30 p. m.
Those Who Make the Trip Are
Urged to Purchase Tickets
Thursday.
Professor O. R. Chatburn, chairman
of the committee having Omaha Day
In charge, reports that Mr. Drownell
of the Burlington has stated that the
following train schedule will be ob
served on Omaha Day, May 2nd:
A. M. leave Lincoln 8:20; arrive
Omaha 10:00.
P. M. leave Omaha 11:30; arrive
Lincoln 1:00.
Even If there are more than eight
hundred students who will make the
trip Mr. Brownell believes that one
special train will be able to handle all
of them. Sixty students can easily be
accommodated In one coach, and it is
possible that the train will contain as
many as fourteen coaches. This would
take care of 840 students.
Railroad authorities as well as uni
versity officials having the trip in
charge urge everyone who expects to
make the trip to purchase their tickets
at the down-town ticket office, before
four o'clock Thursday afternoon, May
1st. This will enable them to make
an estimate of the number of students
who will go on the excursion by Thurs
day evening, and to see if more than
one train will be required to accom
modate them.
Groups formed In sororities," frater
nities, clubs, and from the student
body should have one person procure
tickets for the entire group if possible.
These groups are being organized en
tirely by the students themselves, and
independent of any university authori
ties. Some of the university depart
ments, however, like the Pre-Medics,
farm students, especially the dairying
group are organizing as departments.
Some university professors will make
the trip. Prof. Gramlich will accom
pany the farm students and the
chemistry department will also be
represented.
Grouping has been entirely in
charge of the Innocents society who
represent the student body, and Walter
Blunk, chairman, with the other mem
bers are now working to perfect the
system. It Is possible that at the
various class meetings Tuesday speak
ers will talk to the students on the
proposed trip and grouping." Further
announcements as to grouping will be
made in the Daily Nebraskan to
morrow. The numbering of some of the
groups already formulated have been
changed In order that those groups
who Intend stopping off at South Om
aha will be numbered from one to five
so they can go In separate cars. This
change --as notified by a telegram
from Mr. Arthur Thomas of the Om
aha Bureau of Publicity. If the stu
dent will consult the Nebraskan for
April 24th, he will be able to under
stand the following group changes:
Group eight will be changed to
group three.
Group thirteen will be changed to
group four.
Group eighteen to group five.
Group three to group six.
Group four to group seven.
Group five to group eight.
Group six to group n:'ie.
Group seven to group ten.
Croup nine to group eleven.
Group ten to group twelve.
Group eleven to group thirteen.

UNIVERSITY TRACK
MEET NEW VENTURE
First Development of Mass Ath
letic System at University
of Nebraska.
New Gymnasium and Athletic
Field Requisite to All-University
Participation.
The all-university track meet last
Saturday which was open to any uni
versity man in school was the first
real venture of this institution into the
field of mass athletics. Nebraska has
her hat in the ring and Dr. E. J.
Stewart, director of athletics, intends
to keep it there.
A real gymnasium and athletic field
commensurate with the size of the in
stitution is the first requisite. The
entire student body cannot be expected
to take enthusiastically to their own
particular branch of sport unless there
is adequate provision for it.
At no distant date the Cornhusker
campus will be adorned with one of
the largest of modern gymnasiums
and an athletic field which will be a
credit to one of the largest univer
sities of the country. A series of clay
courts for the tennis fans will also be
laid out. For the present, however,
Coach Stewart is doing all in his
power to implant the mass athletic
idea at; Nebraska.
It Is Interesting to note the progress
other schools are making along this
line. The following articles recently
appeared in the Michigan Daily and,
the University Daily Kansan, respectively-.""

Michigan
The adoption of the mass athletic
system as a means of bringing out a
large representation of the student
body, and enabling them to enter into
active competition with other colleges
and universities, sports and class ac
tivities seem bound for one of the
most successful years In the history
of the athletic association.
Michigan Leader
In the field of athletics, few univer
sities have done as much as has been
done in Ann Arbor. While Michigan
enjoys an enviable reputation in this
respect, it is believed that more can
be accomplished. Tables prepared by
Mr. Rowe show that prior to the war
nearly 40 per cent of the student body
was engaged in some sort of physical
exercise under the direction of the
department. But in spite of this good
showing, the aim of the department re
mains the same to engage every
