its work on exhibition iu the Art
gallery next Thursday. The Guild
consists primarily of Lincoln artists
although a number of artists from
other sections of the state are mem
bers. The work on exhibition will

colors, but also specimens of interior
decorating, artistic weaving and
ceramics. This interesting collection

PRESS CLUB WILL
ORGANIZE TONIGHT
Students Interested in Journalism
Plan Society to Help Nebraska
Publications.
A great deal of favorable comment
among students and faculty members
has followed the announcement last
Wednesday that a movement had
been started among students Inter
ested in Journalism toward the forma
tion of a University Press Club.
. The first meeting of the proposed
organization which is to be com
posed of all the members of the
editorial staffs of the several Univer
sity publications and all students in
journalism together with all others
who have a desire or an Inclination
to take up newspaper or magazine
work, has been called for 7:30 Tues
day evening In the Law auditorium.
A committee of Sigma Delta Chi,
national journalistic fraternity, has
been meeting with Chandler Trimble
of the Department of English, and
formulating tentative plans for the
organization.
There are approximately 300 stu
dents taking at least one course in
journalism in the University at the
present time and perhaps one hundred
more who are filling executive posi
tions on or are contributing to Uni
versity publications, besides a dozen
or more working on the Lincoln dally
papers. It is desired to secure a 100
per cent enrollment of these students
in the Press Club.
The primary object of the organi
zation is to unite the journalistically
inclined students into one big society
for the purpose of intensifying Inter
est in the profession and to have
some organisation large enough to
warrant lnv.tlng speakers of promi
nence to address it
The plan for forming this club has
been heartily endorsed by members
of the University faculty. Dean P. M.
Buck of the Arts and Science College,
has said that he Is entirely In accord
with the movement and is glad that
definite steps have been taken toward
making it a reality.
Prof. M. M. Fogg or the English
Department, lends his support toward
the plan, which he says is in accord
ance with an idea he has had for
some time for members of his Jour
nalism classes.
J. E. Lawrence, city editor of the
Dally Star and instructor in journal
Ism, is quoted as saying that the clur
should find a ready response from
every student who is interested in
the newspaper work.

year Nebraska was recognized as

nerience as well as reputation and
wonderful results are anticipated.
The men will start working out imme

Nations Hold An Assembly.
GENEVA, Nov. 16. Despite the
fact that the United States did not
have a telegate at the first meeting
of the assembly of the League of
Nations, they today announced their
readiness, to take up at once the
world problems of the future. Paul
Ilymaris, Belgian foreign minister,
was chosen president of the session.
Europe Still Buys Armaments.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 16. Europe
is still spending a great deal of money
for military and naval purposes, upon
a peace time scale that is unpre
cedented, and is paying little atten
tion to taxation to care for current
expenditures. Financial observers
abroad convey a gloomy picture of
financial disturbances, affecting alike
England, France, Italy and other
powers. They lessened hope of
Europe's ability to pay on soon the
huge American obligations now out
standing. Hunger Strikers Gain Flesh.
CORK, Nov. 16. The nine Sinn
Fein hunger strikers, who voluntarily
ended their fast last Friday after
going ninety-three days without food
in Cork Jail were much stronger to
day and have already begun to take

every game she has played this sea

have tie scores marked on their

Of the three leaders Orand Island,

Sixteen Hours Requirement for Arts
and Science and Combined
Law Degrees.
Three new curriculum requirements
designed to raise the standard of the
work required of students seeking a
degree in the College of Arts and
Sciences of the University of Ne
braska were adopted by the faculty
of the college at a meeting In the
Socail Science buildlni, Saturday,
morning. The changes affect ihe mod
ern language department and the law
students working for a combined de
gree in law and arts and sciences.
The change In modern language re
quirements was presented by the
modern language department In
this recommendation the course ot
study committee recognizes work
done In modern languages !. the high
schools but stiffens the language
group requirements in the University.
Students will hereafter be required to
have sixteen college hours work in
modern languages to complete the
group requirement, instead of ten
hours only required heretofore. The
following resolution was passed by
the faculty of the Arts College en this
requirement:
"Moved that the . equivalent of six
teen college hours be required for
the completion of the modern lan
guage group requirements. If a stu
dent presents one year of high school
work in language, then ten college
hours will be required in the same
language; if he presents two or more
years of high school work then six
college hours of work in the same
language would satisfy the require
ments." Affecting the combined course of
law and arts and sciences, the faculty
of the Arts College passed a rule re
quiring any law student seeking a
degree in the arts and sciences from
the University of Nebraska must
take at least thirty hours work in
that college here. This means that
ftjder.ts from other or smaller col
leges will not be able to obtain the
degrees of bachelor of arts or
bachelor of sciences from the Univer
sity of Nebraska on the strength of
work In law alone, combined with
courses taken at other arts colleges.
They will be required to take at least
thirty hours of work In the Arts Col
lege of the University of Nebraska in
order to receive the combined degree
on completion of tbeir work in the
Law College.
A second recommendation of the
course of study committee adopted.
at the meeting, provides that fourth
year students (who have completed
at least thirty hours in the College
of Arts and Sciences) may elect
courses in the Departments of Juris
prudence and Public Law which
count toward the degree of bachelor
of law, and not to exceed thirty-two
hours of college law work. These
subjects count toward the degrees of
bachelor of arts and bachelor of
sciences. The effect of these two
decisions is to open up the courses
of the College of Arts and Sciences
to law students interested in phases
of liberal education, particularly re
quiring some work in the Nebraska
Arts College in order to obtain a
degree In the University of Nebraska.
The second recommendation opens to
students of the arts and sciences in
terested in public affairs, courses in
the College of Law such as constitu
tional Interpretation, history of the
common law and history of Juris
prudence. The latter subjects are
taught by Judge Hastings of the Col
lege of Law.
A student may register In the six
year combined law and academic
"ourse In his Senior year (provided be
has completed In residence At least
thirty hours of work In the College
-if Arts and Sciences), &ad elect nor
more than thirty-two hour in the
College of Law.

Coach Schulte and his proteges are
not discouraged In any way over the
outcome of Saturday's battle with the
Kansas Jayhawks. All of the men
came through the game in fine shape
and are more than ever determined
to humble the Michigan Aggies and
Washington State. These teams win
be Nebraska's last foe on the gridiron
for the present season. The Michigan
Aggie game will be played Saturday
and the Washington State contest
will take place on Turkey day.
The Michigan Aggie team have one
of the strongest combinations this
year that ever represented the school
and Nebraska is more than anxious
to send them home with the short
end of the score. The game Saturday
will be the first contest between the
two schools since 1914. Nebraska
overwhelmingly defeated the "farm
ers" that year to the tune of 24 to 0.
Coach Schissler scouted the Michigan
team and Is busy giving the Freshman
team some of the formations used by
the Aggies. Schissler reports that
the .Aggies are coming out of a
slump and are playing a brand or
football that will keep the Huskers
guessing from the first kickoff until
the final whistle. Nebraska will
slightly outweigh the Michigan squad
but their weight will be of no advan
tage on many of the formations de
veloped by the Aggies. Nebraska's
record for the season 19 somewhat
better than that of the Aggies but
the Cornhuskers will have to put up
a real fight to stop the Michigan men
from getting near the Husker goal.
Coach Schulte had the squad out
early alst night and worked the men
until darkness made it impossible to
see the ball. He worked the squad at
signal practice the entire evening.
