Avery the new quad may be used by bothdepart ments so long as space is availabl As new buildings become necessary to house the University's increasing equipment for her increasing number of students, the new grounds will be gradually utilized for these structures and additional campus space.

President Philbrick Will Announce Appointments at First Meeting of Group This Year. Sophomores will be given the chance to raise their stock in the Olympics at least a hundred points at the first class meeting of the year, Tuesday morning, in Law 202, at 11:30 o'clock. Class committee ap pointments will be announced by President Philbrick and preparations for the coming Olympics will receive fresh impetus. Up to date not much enthusiasm and spirit has been shown by the class over the approach ine Olympics struggle. There has been a feeling that the coming clash will be easy for the Sophomores be cause of their victory last year. The Freshman class of this year are in a position to put up a much harder scrap than the class of 1922 gave the Sophomores last fall. It will take the support of every man in the class if the Sophomore colors are to . come out on top at the struggle Saturday morning. Few Report for Tryouts. Much remains to be done in the next, few days in preparation for the scrap. The finals in the wrestling and boxing tryouts are to be run off and a team picked for the 400 yard relay. Only a handful of men showed up for the relay tryouts Saturday morning and few of these had track experience, although all had an abundance of the Sophomore spirit. More men must try out before a team can be picked. All Sophomores will have a chance to show their pep and spirit at the Tuesday morning meetirg. Plans for organizing the class into an efficient fighting body will be perfected. Co-eds as well as men are urged to join in the preparations for the Olympics. With several hundred fair co-eds cheering them on, the Sophomore warriors can not fall to tear the Freshmen up in the annual scrap, is the opinion of most of the second year men. Original Cartoon of Commoner in Library Walter S. Whitten has presented the Universtiy library with an origi nal Bryan cartoon by the famous cartoonist, "Ding" of the Des Moines Register. The cartoon is one pre sented to Mr. Whitten by the artist, J. W. Darling, and is inscribed with his well known nom de plume. It will be added to the University's unjue collection depicting various phases of the great commoner's pub lie life as pictured on the front pages of the press during three presidential campaigns. The cartoon originals forming the collection are drawn from both sides of the political fence. They are interesting, not only as examples of newspaper art but as a historical sonrce and commentary on political campaign history in this country l nwo wn csmw. and Gold Line Net Only Score of the Nebraska Cornhusker in; general drive which resulted in a score. The Aggie' line crumpled before-the terriffe smashes of Hubka and. ofttackle drives- of Wright and Hartley and the Nebraska fullback carried the pigskin over the Aggie line in the final' period; Captain Day kicking goal:. The oppressive heat hampered' both, J elevens and was responsible for the slowness of the play. This accounts In a large measure for the failure1 of the Husker machine to get into ai tion before the third period' of the game. The visitors had the edge on the Nebraskans during the? first half but at this stage Hubka entered the fray, relieving Moore who was taken out on account of injuries. The big fullback seemed to inject the neces sary pep into his team-mates as the Huskers immediately launched the winning offensive. A forward pass, Newman to Swanson, was good for thirty-five yards and line smashes carried the ball to the Aggie ten-yard line from where Hubka smashed across. Colorado Threatens to Score.
