dents must show a sufficient interest
In this invitation if it is to be accept
says Dean C. C. Engberg.
Students should make their decision
known at the earliest opportunity
through the members of the Omaha
Hub. Surely Cornhuskers will accept
without hesitation this offer of enter
tainment on' the part of the ebraska
mertopolis. It has been two years
since Omaha Day was observed, but
all who were here at that time re
member the royal reception accorded
them at this time In the Gate City,
the entertainments under the auspices
of the Omaha Commercial Club and
the famous banquet at the Fontenelle.
Surely you will want another such
day of celebration this year.

IT'S NOT EXCLUSIVE.
Engineers' Week is not exclusive.
All hough the members of that college
will always receive the credit for
starting the idea, this does not prevent
the members of the Arts and Sciences
the Law College, or any other college
at the University of ebraska from set
ting aside a week which may be cher
ished as seven days devoted entirely
to the needs and Determent of that
particular college.
it does not necessarily have to be a
week. A few days speeches, stunts,
athletic events, social affairs and gen
eral festivities which mirror the en
thusiasm of any department serve to
build up the morale of the depart
ment. The fact that a particular college
within the University is so well known
that it does not need such a cele
bration to call the attention of other
students to its existence is a very
weak argument. The purpose of the
week is not to attract attention
it is to help the members in a particu
lar department to take an inventory
or that department, so to speak to
weigh its needs and shortcomings.
All departments are so well known
that they do not attract the atention
of others to their existence.
OMAHA DAY IS
. HONORED TRADITION
Omaha day is a tradition of the Uni
versity which lias been observed
c very spring for many years with the
exception of last year when it was
abandoned because the Omaha alumni,
upon whom the success of Omaha
day depends mainly, were busy work
ing on the campaign to raise funds
for a memorial stadium. 'J'liis year
the co-operation of the Omaha Cham
ber of Commerce, the Nebraska
Alumni Association and various httsi
ncss firms in Omaha with the Uni
versity Omaha Club. Phi Omega fra
ternity and the deans of the colleges.
i has made feasible the revival o'
Omaha day.
On each Omaha day the doors of
the business houses and institutions
of Omaha are thrown open to the stu
dents who are taken through in
groups on inspection trips.

The finals in the inter-class wrest

the Sophomore class taking most of

In the' 125-pound division, Margo

the first year class in the final bout,

Rystrom won the 158-pound class
