Flansburg Praises Law
As Professional Career
' r
"I advise the pursuit of law as a
profession, but I would do all in m
power to- discourage it as a means or
securing the almighty dollar," said
Hon. C. C. Flansburg at the sixth
general law lecture period In tho Lav
Building Friday morning at eleven
o'clock. Mr. Flansburg lhas been
prominent as an attorney in Lincoln
for many years and the Law College
took advantage of the opportunity to
learn some of the problems in con
nection with yaw us a profession. He
explained that It, Is up to the lawyer
to solve the industrial problems of
today and to solve the quesllons arls-
nectlon with law as a profession. ,He
also discussed the "Workman's Com
pensation Act," saying that it was
formed to abolish suit and to award
compensation to the laborer.
The Law College vr.lued the talk
because of tthe fact thnt it was based
on actual experience. Judge Flansburg
gave many valuable bits of informa
tion that will help the students In their
future work. In closing he Bald, "The
success of the lawyer lies in securing
the confidence of their clients and in
order to do this he must prove worthy
of the trust that the client places in
him."

The new student directory will sell
for fifty cents on the campus Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday, ac
cording to announcements made by

linns of the students.

increased cost of print paper is con
Mdercd. Every student will be able
to purchase a pamphlet.
The new directory embraces many
new features. In spite of the fact

earlier this year than for some time.
Last year thp handbooks did not
make their appearance until Novem
ber 24. The editors, John Burley, '21.
and Peter Frederlcksen, '21, are to be

located at the following places: Social
Science hall. University hall, west
entrance to Armory, Law building and

letter memberships will be a handy
guide for Freshmen, according to the
editors.

the Committee of Two Hundred, will
be held at the rooming places of
students next Wednesday even'ng.
The group leaders expect to visit
all Freshmen men before that time

that date. Followers of the Nebraska team watched with interest

Although the New Yorkers have been
defeated several times this season,
they have been beaten only by the
strongest squads in the east and have
given everyone a race for the money.
Eastern critics give Nebraska a slight
margin over Rutgers, but prophecy a
hard - fought battle, no matter who
wins.
Penn State Mighty.
The Penn State aggregation with
which the I Tuskers will battle Satur
day, won their fifth consecutive vic
tory this season when they defeated
Pennsylvania, 28 to 7. Without a
doubt the Quakers have one of the
Organixations Giving Financial Support .
Societies of University Asked to Furnish a Guarantee Fund to Secure
Success of Undertaking Innocents Behind Activity.
Plans for the Cornhusker song book
are rapidly ncaring completion. The
movement is receiving wide publicity
and meeting approval all over the
state. Already University organiza
tions are backing the book wkh
donations.
Not only is the Daily Nebraskan
helping with the publicity, but the
Lincoln and Omaha papers and other
papers throughout the state are help
ing, both in their news and editorial
sections, to make this book a success.
Clarence Haley, president of the
Innocents Society, stated the stand
taken by the organization as follows.:
"The Innocents endorse and hearti
ly approve of the work planned by
the Cornhusker song book committee
and are ready and anxious to back
this committee both financially and
by co-operating in every possible way
to successfully publish a song bo6k
for the University of Nebraska."
Financial Plan.
Ruth Kadel, Ruth Lindsay and
Russell Bailey, in charge of the
financing of the book, have outlined
the plan to be followed. It is decided
that! each organization in the Uni
versity will be solicited for the sum
of $10 to form a guarantee fund In
order that the work may commence
at once.
This plan was elected because ' it
would not affect individuals and
would be too small a sum to affect an
organization materially and would
give students an opportunity to back
up a worthy proposition.
As soon as each organization has
been solicited a list of those con
tributing will be printed in the Daily
Nebraskan, and it will appear in the
song book when it is published.
The fund secured in this way will
be handled through the Student Ac-
tivilies office, and a financial state
ment will be published at a later
date.
