of sentlnu-nt. In the present picture

ful blue pool.
A number of the pictures In the
Present exhibition are quite remark
able because of the lighting effects.
The foremost aiming these Is "Over
the Harbor" by Child Hassan. This

hthed in sunlight. Hasson has the
dlBtiaction of having painted the most
remarkable war pictures produced In
America. His paintings of Fifth
Aue decorated with flags have re
efed the unqualified praise of Joseph
Penaell, famous etcher.
Another picture remarkable for its
HBhtlng effects is "Inclosed Mesa" by

DID YOU KNOW THAI-
Has any student ever longed and
yearned for a sight of that home paper
that his mother Is always going to
send back with his laundry and never
does? And some one writes him from
home and says something like this,
"Well, I suppose you have read In the
paper all about Mary Ann so I won't
repeat It, but wasn't It simply ter
rible?" And then he gnashes his
teeth and pays his respects to the
friend and afterwards lies awake all
night trying to think what has hap
pened to Mary. Or he hears from an
other friend at home words to this
effect, "I wonder what Jack will do
now since all that happened to him,"

HUSKER STARS
OUT OF GAME
Captain Schellenberg, Patty and
Bekins Laid Up wiw
Inuries.
CATHOLICS COMING FRIDAY
With three veterans out of the
game, the Cornhusker basketball camp
is pervaded with deepest gloom. Cap
tain Schellenberg, Jesse Patty, and
Melvin Bekins are the three stars
whos'4 services are lost to the Husker
team at present. Whether or not
these men will be able to participate
in the giities with the Notre Dame
five this week, is still very doubtful.
Schellenberg's sickness is such that he
is confined to his bed and there is
little chance that he will be able to
attend practice any time this week.
Jesse Patty, who played so brilliant
ly in the gamjes with the Michigan
Aggies, suffered a wrenched knee In
the second Aggie game and It still
unable to make much headway with
the injured member. Bekins has a
severely Injured toe which prevents
any participation in the court game at
present. Both Patty and Bekins were
on hand for practice yesterday but
neither was able to participate. It is
believed that Patty will appear in the
lineup against Notre Dame, although it
is doubtful.
The Huskers are slated for two
hard battles this week with the Irish
men and the loss of these regulars
will greatly lessen their chances of
winning. The Catholics have recently
defeated the Michigan Aggies and the
fast Wabash college five. Coach
Dorais' outfit is all ready laying claim
to the western championship and is
confident of grabbing a pair of games
from the Cornhuskers. The Huskers.
however, have very unpleasant memo
ries of the meeting between Notre
Dame and Nebraska on the gridiron
last fall and are determined to oe re
venged on the South Benders.
Although it was previously an
nounced that one of the games with
the Irish would be played In the city
auditorium, these plans have been
changed and both games will be
staged in the armory. The use of this
small floor will no doubt give a de
cided advantage to the Catholics &a
they are reputed to be a squad of big,
six-foot huskies. At any rate, Coach
Schissler's proteges are in for the
toughest games of their lives.
