IT'S UP TO YOU
Have you been thinking about
the great Memorial Campaign
to be initiated here toon while
you have been away from" your
books for the week-end, or have
you spent all of your time in
frivolous pastime, with not a
serious thought to devote to
such things? This is a really
big purpose, and YOU as a rep
resentative of 5,000 Cornhuskers
are not going to be found lack
ing when the collection plate'is
passed. You are going to give
and give with a smile! That is
Nebraska spirit.
The committee will not see
each one of you personally and
say your quota is a certain
amount. You must think it
over yourself and fairly decide
just what deposit you can make
toward the erection of the most
beautiful monument to athletics,
culture and Nebraska bravery,
ever to be erected. The time is
ripe now for serious thought in
the matter. YOUR QUOTA IS
UP TO YOU. DECIDE NOW!

o"It was a wonderful sensation," ex
claimed Chancellor Avery to about
seventy University professors who
swarmed around him after he had
stepped from the Lincoln Tour-about
aeroplane Saturday noon at the State
Fair grounds. "And do you know,
the Chancellor continued, "that I
didn't feel any more nervous than
when I Tan my first automobile."
Seventy University professors were
the guests of the Standard Aircraft
corporation and the Hebb Motors
Company Saturday. Under the direc
tion of Dr. G. R. Condra the faculty
members were transported in auto
mobiles from the . Chemistry Building
at eleven o'clock to the State Fair
grounds where a inspection trip was
made through the aeroplpne assem
bling plant of the Standard Aircraft
corporation. Many of the professors
did not know that such a factory was
in existence and were surprised to
see scores of skilled workmen as
sembling the huge air-birds.
The Card Lottery
Immediately after the visit through
the plant E. C. Hammond, vice-president
of the Aircraft corporation, an
nounced that one member of the
faculty group who drew the lucky
card would be entitled to a trip in
the clouds. It was rumored that the
Chancellor had decided to remain out
of the contest on account of a bad
cold he had contracted the night be
fore. Mr. Avery boldly asserted that
he would make a trial flight in order
to see if the machine was safe for
the fortunate professor. Prof. A. A.
Reed drew the card from the hat
held by Captain Hauser and an
nounced that W. W. Brokaw, direc
tor of the Extension Service was the
victim of the drawing.
Chancellor Avery, made a fifteen
minute sir tour over the city and Uni
versity campus, alighting at the Fair
grounds at 12:22 o'clock. "I got a
very good conception of the city ot
its railway trackage and the topo
graphy surrounding the city," said the
Chancellor.
Dinner at Havelock
Mr. Brokaw was next to mount the
cab making a similar flight, but land
ing at the Hebb Motors field at Have
lock where he was greeted by his
associates who had motored from the
Fair grounds to the Hebb Motor plant.
A complimentary dinner was served
to the party at the Hebb plant. Dr.
Condra acted as master of ceremonies.
He told the professors of Lincoln's
and Nebraska's vast commercial re
sources and the brilliant possibilities
In the manufacturing industry. Short
talks were given by A. G. Hebb, J.
McLemoure, E. C. Hammond of the
Hebb Motors company, Chancellor
Avery and W. H. Brokaw.
Following the dinner the officers of
the company escorted the party
through their plant Mr. Hebb stated
that- the truck business was growing
by leaps and bounds and that the
concern had $6,000,000 of orders on
their books.
"It was a good opportunity for an
outing," said Dr. Condra in speaking
of the trip. "Professors like every
one else need some recreation and I
believe everyone enjoyed the excur
sion."
