HIGH PRICES MUST DROP.
High prices of University luxuries
have at last started their tobaggan
and It is high time that they should
tumble. Independent promoters are
putting on a dance at the Rosewilde
tonight for a dollar. Think of it one
dollar pre-war prices. This is a
good example for dance hall manage
ments to follow and the student body
are desirous and are demanding a
drop in all student commodities and
entertainments.
For the last month it has been a
noticeable fact, that a large majority
of students have decided to force
do;n especially entertainment prices,
or go without them. This sentiment
is gaining increased momentum; Hist,
because the students do not have the
money to pay the exhorbitant prices
and secondly, because they can see no
justification for the large increase of
amusements over last year.
University students cannot afford
to pay these increased prices much
longer. A great number of students
come from the farms and small towns
in Nebraska, and are directly de
pendent upon, farm produce to pay
their way through school. The great
slump in the price of farm products
has forced a large number of the stu
dents to get along on a much smaller
allowance than heretofore. They can
not and will not stand for the present
exhorbitant cost of entertainment and
other luxuries. Notable among these
are the present high prices of the
local theaters, moving picture shows,
dance halls, refreshment parlors, ban
quet halls, and music. When corn
brings only 22 cents per bushel in
many small towns and moving pic
tures cost here, from 20 to 40 cents
students ' are forced -to forego these
luxuries and their number is increas
ing daily.
THE MILITARY BALL.
A large number of cadets and stu
dents who are not in the cadet regi
ment will attend the Military Ball at
the Lincoln tomorrow night The
Military Ball holds a place in the
social life of the cadet that is not
duplicated by any other activity. The
annual ball is one of the most enter
taining functions of the cadet school
year and rates with compet and the
shirt-tail parade in the degree of in
terest taken by the cadets. A large
number of men are registered in tin
regiment this year and it is hoped
that those who can will attend the
ball Saturday night. Th. fun and
frolic of this annual social activity
cannot be over estimated. Special
talent has been arranged for accord
ing to the committee which has
charge of the entertainment, and this
alone is worth the price of admission.
CORNHUSKER CAMPAIGN WARM.
The Cornhusker Sales Campaign
which has been raging on the campus
the rast week will close at p. m.
Saturday. Today is the last day for
real work on the campus and the
organizations which have entered the
race are urged to make the best of
their last real opportunity to win in
the sales race. Five organizations
are running neck and neck at the
head of the list and others are not
far behind. The race is not always
to the swift but often goes to the
steady and persistent The organiza
tions which are still behind the live
leaders still have time to win in the
campaign and hard work is all that
is required to win. A number of stu
dents who are not well acquainted
with the University are complaining
that they have not been canvassed as
yet This is something that should
be remedied. The University direc
tory should be a great aid to any
iHn which makes the best
UJ gaujiauuu
of its opportunity and canvasses the
individuals by telephone or visit who
are not touched by a canvass of the
student organisations. The Co-a-husker
Is a volume that every stur nt
should be eager to get and anyone
who misses out will feel that he has
lost a great part of his student life
i t i.tar rears he finds that
m ucu - -
there is no Cornhusker In the home
to remind him of Mi college year.
Therefore the people who are taking
charge of tie canvass should see that
everyone has an opportunity to get
the annual, and every organization
should remember that the race Is not
over until the last whistle blows.
HUSKERS MAY PLAY WEST
VIRGINIA.
Director Stanabury of West
Virginia University athletics
hat communicated from Wheel
ing with the Athletic Depart
ment at the University of Ne
braska, asking for a grid game
with the Cornhuskers to be
played next fall. No action hat
been taken at the University In
regard to the proposed clash.
Military Ball First
Formal Party of Year
The Military Ball which will be
held in the ballroom of the Lincoln
Saturday night promises to be one
of the best formal affairs of the year
at. the University. Special talent has
been encased to entertain those lh
attendance during the evening and a
exeat surprise awaits the students
according to Kay Weightman, chair
man of t lie committee in charge.
A few tickets remain but those
will be off the market at 5 p. m. Fri
day. The students who have not had
an onnortunity to purchase tickets
may get them from any member of
the Cadet Officers' Association luring
the day. Those who have tickets lor
sale will turn their remaining tickets
in at the Student Activities office to
1.iv. Those who are out of tickets
may refer any one desiring to attend
the dance, to some member of the
association who they know lias a few
paste boards still on hand.
The Military formal is the first one
of the year and prospects are that it
will be the best one also. Military
balls of the past have always been
widely known throughout the Univer
sity as the chief social function oi
the school year. This one promises
great tilings and a number of novel
ties and surprises.

Fraternity House
Their Work Just Bei ore Dawn
Fraternities at the University are
wondering why burglars choose the
early hours of the morning from 6 to
6:30 to do their prowling and In
vestigating of the nooks and crevices
of chapter houses. Such a condition
indicates amateur burglary at the
best. "Caught in the act," will be
the headline some morning after such
an investigation.
About 6 o'clock Wednesday morn
ing a certain member of a University
fraternity, asleep on the third floor
of the chapter house, was awakened
by the stealthy creaking of floors.
Raising himself in bed, he barely
discerned the form of a man gliding
through the door of his room. The
marauder had seen !ho motion of the
sleeper and without hesitancy he
made his way to the first floor, softly
hut in great leaps, and rushed outside
bansing the front door behind him.

' ' ' 'i
Prowlers Do
prowler, after gathering himself to
gether and arguing that there were
no other burglars In the house, visited
the sleeping porch where the rest of
the chapter was reposing. Immediate
ly thirty-five men were ready to
ncunce upon the investigator. But
he had been seen to glide away,
stumbling on the wet sidewalk as he
made his getaway.
When four burglaries have occurred
in a half semester a record In itself
drastic measures should be taken
to guard watches, money and other
valuables. Stores selling Yale locks
have been bought out. Now the
brothers are considering drawing
straws for nightly vigils until vacation
comes In May.
Six o'clock in the morning is a
dangerous time to burglarize, even if
it is a fraternity house and even if
December mornings at that hour are
as black as the scholarship record ot
a tea hound! !

Professor Hendricks
Rapidly Recovering
Prof. B. C. Hendricks of the De
partment of Chemistry, who was
badly injured two weeks ago, is
expected to be able to leave the
sanitarium for his home sometime
Saturday. Professor Hendricks un
derwent two painful operations on
the facial bones, which were badly
shattered. The accident occurred
when Professor" Hendricks was run
ning to catch a car to attend the
meeting of the American Chemistry
Society. Mrs. Hendricks and his
mother are in Rochester where the
latter is in a hospital. Professor
Hendricks married sister, Mrs. Ross,
has come to assist in looking after
the two small children in the home.
It was feared that there might be
some injury to the eyes and that a
serious fracture of the frontal bone
had resulted from the fall, but physi
cians at the sanitarium believe that
his Injuries will not be permanent
or as dangerous as might be expected.

FUND STARTED FOR JEWISH
RELIEF' WORK IN NEAR EAST
Menorah Association Sponsors Move
to Aid European
Students.
Jewish undergraduates and alumni
nf tVin lu.ndinir universities and col-
ipk throughout the United States
and Canada are organizing under
the auspices of the Intercollegiate
Menorah Association relief work for
destitute Jewish students in Eastern
European universities, who according
to reports received by the Menorah,
are in most desperate straits, owing
to acute economic conditions and
anti-Semitic outbreaks.
Prof. Felix Frankfurter of Harvard,
Judge Julian W. Mack of U. S.
Supreme Court, Justice Irving Lehman
of the New York Supreme Court, anil
Dr. Julius Goldman, prominent New
York attorney and philanthropist, at
present European director-general of
American-Jewish -elief work, are
honorary chairmen of the appeal
which the Menorah will conduct
among university students and alumni,
as well as all others interested in
Jewish student affairs. Henry Ilur

ii-ifli liim in rliof work
imn u ,,nii in,.. ... - -
oKvnori in u-liich kVip summarizes the'
condition of Jewish students in the
principal Eastern European univer
sities as follows:
Situation More Desperate.
"Situation of Jewish students grow
ing daily more desperate. In Buda
pest 1.500 Jewish students are walk
ing the streets vainly hoping to
enter the university which has not
accepted a single Jew. As a conse-
quence of conditions in Poland and
persecutions in Hungary Jewish stu
dents are congregating in Prague
where they are looked upon with
disfavor and frequently threatened
with expulsion, which may become a
reality at any moment. Students cut
off from communication with their
homes ai;e for most part entirely
wnnoui lunas.
"Desperate housing ' conditions in
these cities making it impossible for
students to find lodgings. In Prague
I found them sleeping in old Jewish
cemetery, along quays and under
bridges. Approaching winter will
create an appalling situation. Shelter
less, hungry, ill-clad and only too
often sick, these students will soon
not be able to go through another
winter of suffering unless help comes
to them promptly from the outside
world."
Jewish fraternities and other so
cieties are co-operating with the
Menorah Association in the work or
raising funds, to alleviate the distress
among the students in Eastern
Europe, practically all of whom are
either graduate students or upper
classmen. PEDDLING CORNHUSKERS.
A pretty maid came tripping up
To a Freshman green, today.
"Will you take a Cornhusker from
me?"
I heard the fair one say.
The Freshman began to blush and
grin,
He looked proud and tickled, too.
Said he in accents meant to be sweet,
"I'd buy a dozen Cornhuskers from
you."
Then the maiden brought out a little
blue book,
"Please, what is your name and
address?
You can pay me two dollars of the
six if you will.
And when the book comes -out, I'll
take the rest" '
What that Freshman did. makes a
sad, sad tale.
From cheeks of red, he turned kind
of pale.
"Why er er, I gotta run or be late
to class,'
And he rushed headlong past the
waiting lass.
Spoof.
