GIVE FIRST TALK
Noted Woman Vocational Expert
Will Open a Series of Infor
mal Lectures March 20.
ONLY FOUR TALKS TO
BE GIVEN THIS WEEK
The Rest of the Time to be Given
Up To Personal Conferences
With University Girls.
Miss Helen M. Bennett of the Chi
cal'o Collegiate Bureau of Occupation
conduct a scries of informal dis
cussions and conferences with Uni
versity girls 'beginning March 20.
This will make the third visit or
Miss Bennett to the University of Ne
braska. Miss Bennett is very weM posted
on all subjects concerning vocational
education for women. Her talk on
"Business Opportunities for Girls"
will include information concerning
the opportunities in advertising, put
licity, newspaper work, public health
work, nursing, salesmanship and spec
ial work in industry an employment.
She will give four talks to the gen
eral student body and the remander
of her time will 'be given to the girls
who desire personal conference. Her
time is so much in demand that she
can only give five minutes to each
girl, but sh makes the best possibl"
use of her time and each conference
is full of straight to the point facts.
The girls who were in school las:
year will remember Miss Bennett's
delightful personality. She is a very
entertaining speaker and will ta'.k on
such broad subjects that her appeal
ir, almost universal. Miss Bennett has
the remarkable power of seeing
neihilitiia in pvervone. One won' H
leally be surprised to know, some
times, just what she is capable of do
ing. Miss Bennett is the test informed
woman on vocational subjects in the
United States. She knows girls, col
lege girls, knows what they like to
do what they can do, and she knows
just how to help a girl who perhaps
is really thinking but only in a hazy
way, to find her place in the world.
She has written many articles on her
subject. Some late editions of the
Woman's Home Companion published
articles on vocational training for wo
men. Interviews with Miss Bennett are ir.
great demand and every girl who ex
pects to see her should see Ruth Lind
say, or call her, B-4709, as soon an
possible to arrange for a conference.
Every year the Woman's Self
Governing Association arranges a
series of 'talks on vocational train
ing. A vocational library has also
been started by the association. This
year they are assisted in meeting the
expense of Miss Bennett's trip by the
Women's Commercial Club and t ho
Mystic Fish Organization.
UNIVERSITY PLAYERS
GIVE MOB IRIS PLAY
Special Convocation Held Under
Direction of Herbert Yenne
Thursday
A sot-Hal convocation was held
Thursday morning at 11:00 o'clock at
the Temple theater when the Uni
versity Players, under the direction
of Herbert Yenne, presented a one-
act play, "The Affected Young Ladies"
by Moliere. It is a portrayal of the
author's own time, the seventeenth
century, and ridicules human foibles
of that period which are, strangely,
still characteristic of our own.
The action of the play takes place
in Paris. Two young ladies and their
father have moved from the provinces
to Paris. They are courted by two
young gentlemen worthy of their
estem, but the ladies, haughty over
their recent rise from simple, coun
try life to the life of the frivolous
city, scorn their advances.
These gentlemen may not be so pol
ished, but they soon give proof of
considerable wit Two servants in
their employ are sent as suitors to
the fair ones. They, in turn, are
captivated by the fine manners of
these new acquaintances, but at the
crucial moment the two young gentle
men return to reveal the plot much

DIAMOND SQUAD
HARD AT WORK
Coach Dawson and Frank sent the
I Tusker .baseball candidates through
a gruelling practice Thursday after
noon. This was the beginning of a
series of stiff workouts preparatory
to the Oklahoma games at Norman in
only two weeks. The Nebraska mit-
ters think the clash with the Sooner&
will be soon enough.
The Sooners have the edge on the
Huskers in the respect that th?
weather conditions in Oklahoma have
'been more conducive to outdoor prac
tice than here. The Oklahomans
have had sufficient time to work up a
fast team providing they have the
material.
Yesterday marked the first appear
ance of the Husker leather bingers on
the Hock Island lot this season. Here
tofore they have been working out on
the Campus east of the Social Science
building. The Park has 'been graded
down and floated and is in good con
dition. DOROTHY TEAL

LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1922.
Discover Cause For Large Number Of
Missed Classes Yesterday Afternoon
Professors are wondering why
there were so many absences from
the two to four o'clock classes yes
terday afternon. If they would only
stop and think awhile they could find
the answer quickly. Rudge and Guen
zel had a sale of silk hose yesterday.
In order to better show off their
stock of goods they had a display of
their wears on living models be
tween the hours of two and four
p. m. Tuesday.
University students got wind of
this through sundry advertisements
in the "Nebraskan" and the down
town papers. Then every student
made a secret resolution to see this
if he had to miss school all day.
The result was that more students
missed their afternoon classs than
any time since the Orpheum quit
business.
So many students went down that
they blocked the sidewalk to all ped-
estrains. A riot call was sent in

ENGINEER'S
ANNUAL
mebraskan
and all the Lincoln police force re
serves were called out. The chief
sent all four of lite trusty henchman
down to keep the students from break
ing the windows and stealing all the
hose in view.
Eds and co-eds were piled up ten
deep. They even were standing on
ears parked along the sidewailk.
Some even went in buildings across
the street and took opera glasses
with them. Traffic was blocked
street cars got in a jam, autos were
forced to stop, and Lincoln was with
out communication for an hour as a
result.
The peculiar thing about this is
that the girls who went down to
see the newest styles in hosiery were
not able to get near enough the win
dow to see even the building. All
the men were in front and more
were crowding up all the time.
The show has been called off for
today.
PREDICT SUCCESS
FOR ALL! PARTY
Many New Features Planned For
Mixer in Armory Saturday
Evening.
Students who fail to attend the
all-university party to be given Sat
urday evening at the University
Armory will be passing up the op
portunity of having one of the best
times of the school year. The com
mittee in charge has promised one
of tiie largest and peppiest parties
put on this year and all indications
are that they will make good their
word.
Features of every kind will be in
novated fhto the Saturday night
mixer. Things never before tried at
mixers will be featured and students
who fail to attend will miss some
of most peppy dancing ever seen at
Nebraska.
From 8:30 until 11:30, the armory
will be one bevy of dancing co-eos
and their male friends. Music of
he highest type will be furnished by
the- popular Northwall's orenesira.
This fact alone is a feature of the
party.
Work on this largest of all mixers
has been going on for some time.
The committee has been busy for
weeks planning and scheming for
some new and better features than
every before were tried.
Checking facilities will be provided
for the attending students, r.xct-i-lent
checkers will take care of the
coats and hats and students need
fear no disasters along that line.
University parties have always
been peppy affairs. The one thing
the matter with them is the apparent
lack of interest of the greater part
of the student body. But new inno
vations into the program for the eve
ning should instill a newer and deeper
interest into the mixers.
Those students who like to dance
to good music and at the same time
be intermingled with a crowd of
merry and happy students, should by
all means plan to come. "Nebraska
Spirit" will pervade the atmosphere
and only those students with a bad
case of chronic pessimism will fail
to enjoy the hilarity of the evening.
Come with a date or without a date,
as you please, but be sure and come.
If you don't have the best time of
your life, all the signs of prediction
are surely false.
Remember the slogan, "Everybody
out the more the merrier."
Admission charge to the big party
will be thirty-five cents according to
the announcement made Thursday
by the committee in charge. This is
an exceedingly low price for the high
class dances which are put on. No
where else can one be sure of having
such a good time for so small a
price.
RINDGE WILL TALK
BEFORE ENGINEERS
A special engineering convocation
will be held Thursday, March 23, at
11 o'clock in M. E. 206. The speaker
will be Fred Rindge an authority on
industrial conditions in America and
also in Europe.
Engineers attending this meeting
may secure excuses for absenting
themselves from classes occuring at
that period.
HUSKER MAT MEN

Nebraska's representatives in the
western Inter-Collegiate wrestling
meet at Madison, Wisconsin left Wed
nesday. The squad was composed of
the following men: Dr. Clapp,
Thomas, 145-pounder, Coach Trond-
ley and Troutman, 175-pound wrest
ler. The meet will be held today
and tomorrow and is for the purpose
of determining the grappling cham
pions of the western -inter-collegiate

A fencer and two gymnasts are to
leave today for the athletic meet,
which is held In conjunction with
'the wrestling competition. This is
the largest representation that Ne
braska has ever had at the meet,
and the Husker athletes are counted
upon to bring their share of the
honors from the meet.
CO-ED BASKET
TOURNEY TO BE
Class Basket Ball Tournament
Next on Card of Women's
Athletics This Year.
Senior and Sophomore Teams
Expected to Put Up Good
Fight For the Cup.
All interest in basket ball is not
dead just because the annual high
school tournament is over. The girls
class tournament, to be held Satur
day morning will furnish as many
thrills for the spectators. As a cur
tain raiser the second team sopho
mores will nlav the senor second
team. Rumor has it that the soph
second team is a mighty good one.
The freshman second team will play
the second junior team.
At ten o'clock the speedy sopno
mores will battle the senior first
team. The seniors have high hopes
for the cup. So have the sophomores.
The game will be interesting. Per
haps either the junior or the fresh
man team will develop into a "dark
horse." Harding was called a "dark
horse" but he won the presidency
Saturday morning will decide the
teams which shall'play in the finals
the first of next week. The class of
1022 waste their numerals on the
cup last year. Will they do it again?
PROF. BALKS ON
CO-EDS' COSMETICS
Prof. Alwin Thaler, of the Univer
sity of California, walked out of the
classroom recently when he was giv
ing a special "make-up" quiz to co-eds
in mathematics because "they were
too interested in cosmetic make-up."
When questioned. Thaler admitted
walking out, saying, "I asked them
to put aside their vanity cases and
attend to their work, but they just
giggled at me and powdered all the
harder." He also said that the young
women of today are thinking too
much of their complexion and not
enough of their education.
ASK THAT CHILDREN'S
PLAY BE REPEATED
"The Little Princess" a three-act
play given at the Temple theater last
Saturday afternoon, by the Children's
theater, was so well produced that
the popular request was for a second
showing of the play. Mr. Yenne
and Miss Bradshaw, directors of the
performers are considering this and
the delightful play will be repeated
the week after spring vacation.
Esther Marshall, who takes the
leading role of the little girl, Sara
Crewe, portrays well the sorrow and
happiness of a school girl. She is
supported by a well balanced cast.
The play was in three acts.
TO ADOPT CO-EDS
CREED AT OREGON
The plan of the adoption of the Ne
braska Girl's Creed by the Univer
sity of Nebraska girls is being fol
lowed by members of the Oregon
Women's league, in the form of a def
inite co-ed Gods, to govern the actions
of university young women. The idea
was suggested by Mrs. George Ger
linger, a regent of the university.
The making of decisions that arise in
college life would be simplified by
such a plan, she says.

such an exchange is effected, Dean
Buck will be gone from the Univer
sity of Nebraska for four or five
months next year. It is planned that
he leave after the fall registration
