GUY REED MAKES TALK BEFORE FRESHMAN CLASS Not Necessary to Attend Eastern School, Says Former Nebraska Man in Lecture to Yearlings. "It is not necessary ;or any student to go to an eastern college to re ceive instructions under the best pro fessors," was the point emphasized by Guy Reed, assistant cashier of the First National Bank of Lincoln, in a talk given before the members of the Tuesday Freshman lecture class yesterday morning. Mr. Reed, who was representing the Alumni Asso ciation, spoke on the subject of "The College Student and the Home Com munity." He will repeat his lecture Thursday morning before the Thurs day lecture class. "Many people have the mistaken idea that eastern colleges have a much better faculty than western schools, and that there it is much easier for the student to get in closer "ucn with his professors. I can easily prove to you that some of the most national ana even international My famous men and women in the "i sciences, literature, nisiory, languages and other studies, have been, or are now, members of the Nebraska faculty." In proof of this statement Mr. Reed named the many members of the faculty who have gained national prominence in a scholarly field Not only is a school known by its faculty," said Mr. Reed, "but to a greater extent by its alumni. No roster of students graduated from any other college in the United States L a betr 6howing lh&Q Q. the University of Nebraska. Many themselv . . ...... ... ing and other fields of work." In conclusion Mr. Reed emphasized the great importance of having an education, and he laid down as each student's duty, the preparing of him self for greater service to his com niunity, bis state and himself. jr qi i Wrestling IVlen Oiated 1 w i -w r mm . r QT LtUlCOln I .

BAKER EXPLAINS PURPOSE OF MILITARY TRAINING Not to Embark in More Conquests or Acquire Spoils, Says Secretary. Note: This is one of a series of military' stories from parts of a ' speech by Secretary of War Baker which are being run this week in the Nebraskan. The student body as a whole should learn something about the meaning of R. O. T. C. and the military science students would profit greatly by studying the points which Mr. Baker brings forth. Following this the secretary pointed out that the idea of military training was not for the purpose of embarking in more wars, throwing the nation into conflict and acquiring spoils by conquest His explanation of the R. O. T. C. and its purpose is of extreme benefit to those who do not under stand, and a great number do not understand, its real purpose and aim. He continued: "We are not there- fore, seeking to encourage a military spirit by introducing elementary mili tary training into colleges. Indeed, those who know most about war are those who most earnestly seek to avoid it only the ignorant or the wicked could light-heartedly seek to embark their nation in war under modern conditions but we are seek ing by the establishment of the Re serve Officers' Training Corps to give a great body of young men a basis upon which can be built capacity for command and leadership should a national emergency require their service. "The R. O. T. C. movement has grown steadily. At the' close of the academic year 1920 there were 208 senior units having a total enrollment of 43,598 students; and 126 junior units having an enrollment of 44,777 s'ents; and there were assigned t0 tut- udiuiug ui iiieee uuius mure loan 400 officers. The R. O. T. C. was represented this year in forty-six of the essential ly military secondary schools. In these institutions the cadets are habitually in uniform, continually I under military discipline, and receive generally more strictly military in Mruetion and training than In the civil institutions. Their graduates upon entering college have already acquired the fundamental training I and disciplinary instruction essential to the efficient pursuit of the ad- vaneed R. O. T. C. courses. A con- sidf-rable proportion of them are l- ready competent to exercise commis- eioned and non-commissioned rank in (Continued on Page Four?

PRICE FIVE CENTS. mm hi stiff NflKHHT Schulte's Warriors Put Throuah Hri Drill in Preparation for Approach, ing Clash With South Dakota. Coyotes Expect Victory Ccrnhuskers Anxious to Take Revena. for Scoreless Tie Played With Northerners Six Years Ago. Coach Schulte put his warriors through the stiffest practice held this season in preparation for the South Dakota Coyotes next Saturday. The workout last night was held behind closed gates as will the practices for the entire week. With the execution of Pucilek and Hubka the entire Husker squad has reported for prac tice. The. two huskies are rapidly recovering from injuries sustained in the Notre Dame game and will be in shape for the battle against South Dakota Saturday. Last Saturday South Dakota de feated South Dakota Wesleyan 24 to 0. The Coyotes have not been scored on so far this season and are sure of putting up a stiff fight. In comparing the two teams. South Dakota will have a little edge on the Huskers. This advantage is sure to be overcome by the fighting spirit of the Corn huskers. Coach Schulte is enlarging the variety of the Husker's plays and promises some surprises for Satur day's game. Freshmen Battle Seconds. The Freshmen battled with the Varsity second string men last night while the Varsity devoted the entire evening to signal practice. Last Sat urday's game proved the Husker's need of an aerial attack for the one touchdown made against the Irishmen was the result of the Cornhusker's only completed long pass. With this form of attack Perfected the Huskers have 60nietniDe on which to rely uld the cytes' line prove im- ipregnable. Reports have come to Nebraska that the South Dakota team is in first class condition and are deter mined to take the bacon home with them. Nebraska has never as yet been defeated by a Coyote team and Coach Schulte has promised the Husker followers that this record will not be broken this season. Weather conditions have been favor able for the stiffest kind of practice so far this week and if prevailing conditions continue the Huskers should be in the pink of condition for Saturday's game. The Huskers are anxious to get revenge for the tie game the Coyotes played with Ne braska a few years ago. South Dakota Confident VERMILLION, S. D., Oct 19. Fol lowing a hard fought victory over the fast Dakota Wesleyan team here Saturday by the score of 24 to 0, in which twenty-four men were used, the University of South Dakota Coyotes have visions of a hard week ahead in preparation for the battle with the Nebraska Cornhuskers at Lincoln this coming Saturday. According to Coaches Whittemore and Stewart of the University of South Dakota, despite the fact that Nebraska has a strong team. South Dakota may entertain reasonable hopes for a victory in the coming game. Except for the fact that Quintal. quarterback for the Coyotes, was temporarily incapacitated in the Wes- (OontiDued on Pige lour) October 11, 1920. All Officers of Instruction; To: At the senate meeting last Saturday it was decided to make quarterly reports on de linquencies of the Freshmen and Sophomores as well as such other reports as might be of value in promoting better work, and higher scholarship. For instance, a student starts out as an 807c student but has lost his grip and thoujh still pass ing, is now down to say 70T. These sports should not be considered as doing away with the weekly use of the "Re marks" and "Standing" columns. The first report is due Friday of this week. Prompt co-operation is urgent ly desired. (Signed) CARL C. ENGBERG.
