GIRLS' BASKETBALL.
Saturday afternoon in the Armory will be held the annual girls'
basketball tournament. This is the chance for Nebraska coeds to
support their teams. In previous years, the meet has been conducted
in two sections, an inter-sorority contest and a rainbow meet of
teams of specially picked non-sororlty girls. It is felt to be a much
more democratic and more sportsmanlike plan to have mixed teams,
so this year they go designated only by colors. Every Nebraska girl
Bhould attend the games, not only for school loyalty to general ac
tivities, but because some really exciting games are promised. There
are eight teams competing. Go to the meet, pick out your team and
then root for that team with all your enthusiasm. Let's make as big
a thing of girls basketball as boys'. It's for you to do, girls.
THE JUNIOR PROM.
Tonight is the greatest social event of the year the Junior Prom,
when enticed by a pretty girl, a good dinner, real Jazz music, and
many other reasons, the Junior class will dance the light fantastic.
At some universities, this dance is the only real formal affair of the
social season. Due to the great competition from various sources in
the dance world this year, the prestige of the Prom has lost a little
of its glamour, but nevertheless it should hold a very dear place in
the hearts of all University students. In the old days, the Juniors
used to go to the Freshman Prom now the order is quite reversed.
We hope that his will not be the case tonight, for this is the honor
occasion for Juniors and we hope that they will respond to make it
a true class affair.
NEBRASKA TRACK OPPORTUNITIES.
The Cornhusker track team leaves today for Kansas City to enter
in the first meet of this year. Nebraska closed the football and
basketball seasons with a splendid record and signs point to a sweep
stake run in track events. Coach Schulte says, "This University Is
the athletic center of all Huskerland, and in track as well as in foot
ball, it should put out a team second to none In the country." With
these splendid prospects, we may look forward to a glorious season
and let's give the track men the same support and enthusiasm that
we have given the other athletic sports.
A LIBRARY SERVICE.
Fountain pens carry only a limited amount of ink. All students
are likely to discover at 6ome Inopportune moment that their fountain
pens have gone dry. Almost all who study in the library use foun
tain pens while there. None of them carry pens that do not need
refilling.
Dozens of times each day students attempt to find an available
bottle of ink somewhere In the library. Since the library does not
have such a refill station, students are often handicapped In their
work and find it advisable to quit studying and go home. Students
don't carry bottles of ink around in their pockets.
If one is to judge by the number of students whose fountain pens
run dry while working in the library, an available bottle of ink seems
to be a necessary part of the reading room equipment Reference
work cannot be done without making notations. Students would
appreciate a library service in the form of an ink filling-station.
Coach ft Columbia opposes boxing lessons as a graduation re
quirement because they'd cause cauliower ears. Odd Indeed, when
plenty of grads are eager enough to show they have the "earmarks'
of an education. The Dally Cardinal
