The University of Nebraska for a

any college or University. This con
dition is in a fair way of being im
proved, however, for a complete or
ganization has been formed. The
idea of forming a male glee elub
was revived last spring by several
student artists. Dean Parvin Wittn
of Nebraska Wesleyan university was
selected as director, and member
were chosen by tryouts. A number
of these members were seniors and
did not return this fau. Over one
hundred voices were tested in the
tryout this fall, from which number.
fifteen were chosen to serve with the
old men. This makes a club of
thirty men, as follows:
First Tenors
P. A. Pentz. C. R. Hess. V. H. r)icr..
Joseph Dahlberg, Hugh Poora. Rob

Mr. Witte, director, is an artist
possessing both ability and expert
ence. He wag connected with the
musical department of Ohio Wesley
an for two years, during which time
his glee club made the free t-in tc
the Panama canal zone which is
awarded each summer by the pv
eminent. He is now dean of tli
music department at Nebraska
leyan. He is enthusiastic about the
club's prospects, remarking after onf
rehearsal, "with this nucleus we can
have the best glee club this side of
Harvard."
Patsy Hunter, president of the club
last year, is not in school this vear
Vance Doty, law '23, was elected to
the position. The other officers are:

Dean Sherman Moves
From Administration
Building to U Hall
Dr. A. L. Sherman, dean of the
Graduate College, moved his office
from Administration building to "U"
hall, 101. at the beginning of thih
semester. Students seem to be hav
ing great difficulty in finding the deai
and continue to inquire for him at th
Registrar's office. His office hour i
from 11 to 12. "V" hall 101.
The enrollment in the Graduate
College is a third larger than last year.
It is expected that the enrollment
will be doubled by the end of (his
semester. Nebraska draws so many
of the graduate students who are work
ing for their Master's or Doctor's de
gree, because they have ample oppor
tunity for research work and the ex
penses here are so much less than at
Yale, Harvard or any of the endowed
colleges.

Nebraskan Staff
Holds First "Feed"
of the School Year
Over sixty members of The Daily
Nebraskan staff celebrated at the first
"Rag" feed of the year nt Faculty hall
in the Temple last night at 6 o'clock.
Songs, speeches and plenty of "eats"
turned the dinner into the biggest and
"peppiest" of its kind.
Belle Farman, Heibert Brownell,
jr., Marjorie Wyman, Robert F. Craig,
Charles A. Mitchell and Clifford Hicks,
members of the editorial and business
staffs were called upon by the com
mittee in charge to give impromptu
talks. A quartet made up cf the
editor, managing editor, associate edi
tor and one of the night editors was
called upon to sing original songs.
The purpose of the "feed" was to ac
quaint the members of the staff with
one another and to bring them into
closer touch witti the work of the Ne
braskan. The custom of holding the
"feeds" originated two years ago this
fall. Each succeeding staff has en
larged the plan of the get-together.
In the spring, a scandal sheet named,
"The Ragger" discloses the secrets of
all members of the staff.
Nebraska songs, starting with "The
Cornhnsker," were sung during tha
dinner. A vote of thanks to the com
mittees in charge was given when tho
Raggers" broke up at S o'clock to go
to the work of "putting out" the Thurs-
j day Nebraskan.
SOPHOMORES HOLD
OLYMPIC TRYOUTS
Fresbmen Will Test Ability Tbis
Evening Good Material
cn Hand.
Sophomore boxers and wrestlers
with knockout punches and sure fall
holds tried out for places on the sopho
more Olympic team Wednesday eve
ning at the armory. The competi
tion in some classes made it impos
sible to select the members last night
and students who have not yet had
I the opportunity to tryout may do so
at some time later this week. They
should call Ward Kelley, B 1654, to
make arrangements for tryouts.
Freshmen tryouts for the Olympics
will be held tonight. The freshmen
have awakened to the fact that the
sophomores are planning to do the im
possible. They intend to spill the
beans on the sophomores and not give
them the chance.
Olympics is the annual class scrap
between the freshmen and sophomores
to see whether the freshmen shall dis
card their emerald headgear at that
time or continue to year them thru
the winter. For years the freshmen
have been successful in winning the
event and have been able to throw
off the green caps.
Last year a tradition was started
which allows the freshmen to burn
their caps on the athletic field dur
ing the intermission of the homecom
ing day game. If the freshmen win.
October 21, they will build a bonfire
of their caps before the crowds at
tending the Nebraska-Missouri game.
Nebraska Graduate
Has Fine Position
at Northwestern Uni.
Gayle Pickwell, who took his mas
ter's degree in Zoology this summer
at the University, is instructor in
Zoology in Northwestern University
this year.
Mr. Pickwells thesis for his degree
was on spiders, and he spent some
time the past summer collecting spid
ers In western Nebraska. He says
that part of the state is quite rich for
collecting, in a letter to Professor
Wolcott recently, in which he told of
his work during the summer and in
Northwestern.
Mr. Pickwell has charge of the lab
oratory work In general Zoology in
Northwestern. He has under him as
assistants one graduate student, two
seniors and two other undergraduates.
He is pleased with his work there,
and writes that he appreciates his
work In Nebraska as he never has be
fore. The building and equipment it
Northwestern are not so complete as
at Nebraska. There are fewer courses,
but they are heavier than here. Be
ginning Zoology is an eight-hour
course.
