Thirty football candidates answered

tice, and were, put through a stiff
workout yesterday afternoon on the

GRAVE SITUATION III
IS
IMPORTANT
Freshmen Hear Illustrated Talk
By Dean Buck on Far East
' era Country
"In real gravity, the situation in In
dia is the . most important in tho
world," declared Dean P. M. Buck to
the Artsand Science freshmen this
week. "India is farther away and
we hear less of it than of Ireland or
Rusla, bo the reason that we know
less of India and its peoples."
Dean Buck endeavored to give the
students an understanding of the
"sore spot" by means of numeraus
photographs which he had obtained
on his trips there.
The largest church in Uo world is
in the form of a huge mosque at Del
hi. This mosque is in reality a large
enclosure without a roof, except at
the extreme ends, One nd of which
is used as a university and the other
as a pulpit. Inside the walls, untold
thousands worship daily, the women
being curtained off from the men.
"That is a very good plan," said Dean

The Grace Coppock Memorial fund
campaign is on. The goal is $1,500
and it is expected to be reached be
fore the drive ends Friday night.
For fourteen years the University
V. W. C. A. supported Grace Coppock,
secretary in China. She graduated
from Nebraska University in 1905, was
very active in Y. W. C. A. while in
school and was a member of the
Black Masque. The association work
was organized in China in 1907 and
since that time the University Y. W.
C- A. has supported the executive in
charge of the work. Grace Coppock
was recognized as' an internationaal
authority on the conditions of China
She traveled extensively in the in
terest of the Y. W. C. A. In 1917 she
made a trip to America to recruit sec
retaries and at the time of her death
had a staff of ninety-six foreign sec
retaries and thirty-two Chinese sec
retaries. -
The purpose of the t. W. C. A.
of China as stated in the constitution
is "to unite Chinese girls and women
for advancement along spiritual, men
tal, physical and social lines and for
service to God and country, accord
ing to the teachings of Jesus Christ."
Grace Coppock was just such a leader
who could make this purpose take on
a real meaning. She was a real ex
ecutive, one who accomplished things.
The Y. W. C A. is the one Chris
tian agency in China that is working
in the non-Christian schools. The
United States has 50,000,000 women
and girls; nine out of ten read and
write; China has 200,000,000 women
and girls; one out of a thousand read
and write. The vast majority of Chi
nese women are still undr the in
fluence of a social system which en
courages and forces illiteracy and
foot-binding for women and which al
lows slavery. The government has
decided to permit young women to at
tend the government universities and
this offers an unparalleled opportuni
ty for the women of Cuina. A na
tional educational campaign was
started in 1921 in behalf of the com
mon people of China. Night schools
were started and students spent their
vacations encouraging and backing
this movement.
Miss Coppock was called the "best
loved woman in China. During the
famine of 1920 and 1921 she traveled
over the stricken area, doing her ut
most to alleviate the terrible suffer
ing. No tribute too great can be paid
to the worn and life of Grace Cop
pock. Her work has been taken over by
Miss Maude Klatto and tho funds
raised in the campaign tnis week will
be turned over to her. Miss Klatte
is not a graduate of Nebraska but the
association expects to be represented
In China by a graduate the next year.
Interest in foreign missions has in
creased noticeably during the past
few years. Nebraska graduates are
in China, India and Egypt and the
slogan of "Nebraska in Foreign
Fields" takes on a real and new mean
ing as our representation is inc
reased. Every girl in the University
will be asked to support this drive.
In fact, it should be considered a
privilege to help carry on the work
of the association in China- The can
vassing starts this morning and will
be completed Friday aiernoon.
