UNIVERSITY MUSEUM HAS INTERESTING FOSSILS Double-Horned Rhinoceros from Miocene beds at Agate in School Collection. A few thousand years ago this now great and developed country, ac cording to general belief, was grad ually forming into Miocene forma tions topping Brule clay, through the activity of geysers. It has latei been proved that the formations cre produced by the shattering of volcanic rock. Now many hundreds of years hence, geologists in making a study of the soil formations of the state have found fossils of these animals. On the first floor of the university museum we find three interesting studies on fossils. All of these stud ies have a background which is an attempt to show their former sur roundings. The first of these studies is the double-horned fossil rhinoceros, so com mon in the Miocene bone beds at Agate, Nebraska. The second is a group of fossil tortoises, from the Pliocene beds of Nebraska. The third of these is the sikle-foot and a slab from the Miocene bone beds at Agate, Nebraska. These fossils are presented by Hon. Charles H. Morrill, Hector Maiben and the American Museum of Natur al History. A clos? study of these fossils and the formations will be well worth the while of these interested in such subjects.

Shellenberg, Patty and Bekins on Shelf, Prospects Dark for Locals. The greatest court battle of the season will be staged at the Armory tonight at seven-thirty when Coach Schlssler's hoopsters grapple with the Catholics from Notre Dame. Both teams have very enviable records, each having recently defeated the Michigan Aggies, and both are deter mined to achieve victory in the brace of basketball tilts. The Huskers are are anxious to secure revenge for the defeat at the hands of Notre Dame on the gridiron last fall. The Cath olics, romped over the Nebraskans to the tune of 14 to 9, and the memory of this game still rankles in the minds of all Cornhuskers. Two wins from the Catholic basket tossers will place the Huskers a notch ahead ot the Irishmen. With three stars probably unable to pin j, Cornhusker chancea of vic tory are sinything but encouraging. Both xat'.y and Bekins were unahle to work at piactlce last night and Cap tain Schelienberg played -but a few minutes. .l these men fail to appear in the I'.UFker lineup tonight, the odds will greatly favor the Catholics. Coach Schissler is discouraged over the outlook, but hopes that not all of these three wi'.l be unable to work against Notre Dame. The Notre Dame squad will arrive in Lincoln sometime today, ready for battle with the Huskers at seven-thirty. Coach Dorais is bringing a full string of substitutes in addition to his regular five- Mehre, Granfield, Grinager, Brandy, and Anderson are a few of the most dangerous of the Irish team who ..l be in action against Schlssler's team. Granfield, or "Paddy" as he is known to his team mates, plays a guard position and is a real Irish fighter. MAY PAY INSTRUCTORS ON NEW WAGE SCALE There is a movement abroad in the state to pay the teachers according to the amount of time spent in pre paration and according to the amount of experience they have in that line of teaching. It is thought that in this way more efficient teachers would be produced, as teachers would take up the line of work tht they were most interested in, instead of the line which would pay the highest salary. If a teacher had spent four years In college in preparation for the subject which they taught they would be paid acordlngly, regardless of whether they taught in the grade schools or In college. Many schools in Nebras ka have adopted this plan of paying their teachers and it is the hot mrtny more will adopt this piau. R, O. T. C.
