Early Animal Life.
The first animal life appeared
when the earth's temperature reached
a point between 195 and 212 degrees.
The early animals lived in water.
Gtadually as land appeared, some ani
mals such as aligators worked their
way up on the hind. Subsistence in
water however was easier, because
there was no danger from the ele
ments and the water would serve to
cany food to the animals.
As the earth's crust hardened and
more land appeared, various forms of
vegetation began to thrive. Grent
trees grew with broad leaves. The
foilage became more and more like
our tropical foilage or totlay.
Prof. Barbour showed how the6e
pre-hhtoric plants had a profound In
fluence on our civilization of today.
They toqk the carbon out of the -ir
md transmitted it to the ground. It
was this carbon that layed the found
ation for the world's coal deposits. Cf
course without oal our civilization,
would have developed along entirely
different lines.
Not any of thespecies of animal
life existing at that time exisk to
tlay. Hears three times as large as
they are today then lived. Extinct
species of monkeys, elephants, and
rhinoceros were found in tho terri
tory that is now Nebraska,

D. and Mrs. Condra over Sunday. Dr.
Dudley who is the past president of
tho National Academy of Visual ethi

NOVEMBER 20 WILL BE
"GO TOXIHURCH SUNDAY"
In keeping with a University tmdi
tion and with the approval of the
chancellor, November 20th has been
set apart as "Go To Church Sunday
This means that this special day has
been designated as the day when all
th university authorities and the re
ligious organizations working upon the
campus including the church affilia
tion committee of the committee of
two hundred, the association of uni
versity i.astorsJand secretaries and
tho two Christian associations unite
in asking all students to attend the
church of their preference upon that
day and become affiliated members
of some congregation of that church
in the city, continuing such relation
ship while rfn their university course.
This membership does not necessari
ly mean a severance of membership
with -the congregation at home, but
is intended to provide that vital con
nection with the life of the church
in the city which will bring great
henefit religiously to the student, and
help him to be a positive factor in
the advancement of the kingdom ol
God while here.
ARMY COACH OBJECTS
TO ROWS SHIFTS
Notre Dame and West Point Teams
Will Not Meet Next Year
After Quarrel.
Objection by Major Daly, head
coach of the Army team, to the shift
formations used by Notre Dame back
Hold has resulted in . formal state
ment by Coach Knute K. Rockne that
the "Fighting Irish" will not meet
the West Point cadets next fall. Ac
cording to tho Notre Dame coach,
Major Daly rushed onto the field at
West Point to complain to the of
ficials. The rule calls for a penalty
when a coach invades the field of
play yet Major DoAy's Intrusion wtis
overlooked. Rockne alleges further ,
that the cadets played rough football,
tackling frequently when a Notre
Dame man, carrying the ball, was out
of bounds. Intimating that Notre
Dame does not care to continue the
competition with the Army unless the
relations can bo pleasant, Rockne
has declared that Notre Dame will
look elsewhere for an opponent the
first Saturday of November.
Coaches Demand New Rule.
Major Daly, however, is not the
first coach of a rival team to com
plain of the Notre Dame shift. The
charge has been made for several
years that the. Notre Dame backs get
into motion before the ball is snap
ped. Rockne admits that the bodies of
ihe backs are swaying when the ball
is passed from center, but proclaims
that their feet are Stationary and,
therefore, that the rule is not vio
lated. Use cf similar tactics by other
teams resulted early this season in
a meeting of coaches in New York, at
which time resolution was adopted
urging the national rules committee
to -frame a new statute stating in
plain terms that there must be a well
defined halt by hack field men, fol
lowing a shift, before the ball is
snapped.
Eastern Men in Control.
The rules committee is controlled
largely by eastern men and the in
fluence of Major Daiy and other east
ern coaches may prove to be suffi
ciently -powerful to force the adoption
of the proposed amendment.
Notre Dame and' the Army have
been competing the first Saturday in
November during a string of eight or
ten years. Admission to the games at
West Point is by invitation and Notre
Dame has been receiving only a bare
payment of expenses. Having no
chance for a financial harvest and
reaping only a crop of bad feeli.ug,
Rockne has decided that the Army
gaitio is not worth while.
Nebraska's Opportunity.
The fact that Notre Dame has
crossed off the Army and will have
tin open dtite the first Saturday in
November may be woth something
to the athletic management at Ne
braska. The Corahuskers objected
last winter to scheduling Notre Dame
for Ovtober, but no other date was
open and Director Luehring reluct
antly approved Oct. 22. Prior to the
Nebraska-Notre Dame combat, the
Cornhuskers had competed in two
games, while the Catholics had play
ed four games. As a result, Notre
Danie was in fine fettle and capable
of going at its liest clip, while the
Cornhmkers were not prepared to
make their best showing. Notre Dame
is under contract to -play Nebraska

Publicity Chief Remedy.
Disavowing any intention lo pre
judge matters which will come within
ihe scope of the official probe, Gov

to inform the people as to what the
facts are. He relies on public opin

which wrong conditions can he made
right.
High taxes aro included among the
things enumerated by the governor
qs subjects, of inquiry. His own ad
ministration has been somewhat
scathingly criticised because of a
iarge increase in state taxes.
If the investigation should develop
knowledge of the laws beiug violated
it will then devolve upon prosecuting
officials and, pehaps, the coming
grand jury in Lancaster county to
take such action as the facts may
justify.
The initial injuiry wrtl be ne'.d in

After the hearings in Lincoln are
