KEYNOTES OF THE STADIUM BUILDERS CAMPAIGN. "The facts will arjnic for themselves," Prof. M. M. Forr. "Whatever Nebraska starts out do do, she does, and the stadium canipaiini will be no exception," Chancellor Samuel Avery. "Nebraska students must show by their attitude toward this memorial stadium whether they are worthy successors of the men who sacrificed for them in the world war," Prof. F. M. Flinjr. "There were no slackers anions the jrirls of '17: there will lie no slackers amonir the rirls now," Miss Amanda lleppner, Dean of Women. "We are putting it over other schools in athletics and we must put it over them in stadium building," Prof. U. I). Scott. "If the students respond in the rijrht way, the alumni and people of the state will raise their quotas," Harold Holt, alumni secretary. "Y.iU call to the team. "Co team Ho;' now call to your selves. '(Jo student body do.' " Harold Hartley, football captain. "This stadium drive is the beginning of a wonderful spirir at Nebraska. You can't afford not to pret in on it." Fred Daw sen, Dean of Men. Fo;:r thousand students, ready to accept the challenge whie'i thirteen other western colleges Inive issued fo Nebraska in the form of stadiums, crowded into the Ciw Auditorium for the rally which Monday morning opened up the campaign to raise S90, 000 r,i pledges from among the ranks of the students before the eid of the Veek. When at the close of the meeting riiauncc:' Nelson, presilen: of the Ii.iioecr.ts Society, anpmji.ct d thru tnliege of Law had idgod lit) pt r cent and still had some members of the college to solicit, the students sent forth a war whoop indicating that the Laws would not surpass any other col l'ce in the school before the campaign ends Friday evening with a rousing rally and parade. The law school quota was $3,520 and the amount of pledges neared $4,000 and were still coming. Prof. M. M. Fogg of the department of journalism, presided at the rally. In introducing Mr. Fogg as the chair man of the meeting, Chauncey Nel son told how every student who had been approached en the subject of working on the Stadium Builders' Committee had been "tickled to death to serve." They sometimes doubted their ability to do the things asked of them, but they were always glad to work. That is the spirit with which the whole school Is entering upon this campaign. Air of Expectation. As Frof. Fogg assumed the role of chairman, the crowd of four thousand breathed as if with an air of expecta tion, as of persons about to start upon an Important duty which they knew must be accomplished and knew de pended on them. Fogg told of how four anl one-ha'f years ago, the City Auditorium had been crowded with University students backing 100 per cent the Red Cross campaign. The students gave a "su rerb exhibtfon of a devotion to an ideal and with a sense of duty, got be hind the Red Cross." Frof. Fogg then went on to tell of the scenes which were enacted about the campus as men left their class rooms to enter the field of battle. He told of how men had left his office saying, "The old Unl. has done a world for me. I have had a happy life. If I don't coma back all right. Good byo.;1 Then how one. man asked his parents, f'Father and Mother, what's the dif ference whether I spend my life through a period of forty or fifty years, three score and ten, or in one glorious moment on the field of bat tle?" Fogg then launched Into a short ex planation of the Stadium. "Ttoday," ht said, "this college generation is gathered here in the Interests of a great cause. That great cause lies In part In this monumental edifice. Give Facte. "The object of this meeting is to have the people on the platform give (Continued on Page Four.) JUNIOR CLASS MEETING.

FOOTBALL WAGER CHOSEN WEDNESDAY itn.'Ient Managers of Kinor Sports Will Be Done Away With May File Again. Announcement will bo made Wed i.esdny afternoon of tne men chosen :o act as football mf.n;ip,eis for .? 1922 season. There will be no student managers in the minor sports, wrestling, cross country, swimming, tennis and golf. There will be managers for only 'the four major sports; football, basketball, baseball, and track. This was the decision made by the Board of Control of Student Managers com posed of Fred T. Dawson, Director of Athletics, Dr. Lees, chairman of Elig ibility Committee, and Professor -Scott, Missouri Valley Conference Fatuity Representative. Any man who has applied for position as sophomore candidate or junior assistant manager in any of these minor sports -will be allowed to file his application for sophomore candidate or junior assist ant manager in basketball, baseball, or track. There are still openings for sophomores as candidates in foot ball. The reason for dispensing with minor sport managers was that there was not enough work for them to do. and that the expense would be too great in taking them on all of the trips. The captains of the teams in the minor sports will act as managers. Coach Dawson Is desirous that more sophomores apply for position of sophomore candidate in football. Those few who are out, he says, are doing well, but he wants more men.

Head cf Electrical Engineering Department Explains Field to First Year Men. Trot. V. L. Hollistcr of the Depart ment of Electrical Engineering ex plained the field of electrical engi neering to freshmen engineers Mon day at 5 in M. K. 206. He divided the whole E. E. field into what might bo called "Signal Engineering," and "Power Engineering." "Where there is competition, there is business," said Prof. Hollister in explaining the apparent overcrowding of the professions. "The fact that there are so many graduates from this college shows that there is a field for the young engineer. There are many regions of human endeavor yet unex plored, problems untouched. Engi neering, itself, involves problems con cerning power, stresses and so on, and their solution. To solve them well, an engineer must have a knowl edge of the laws of the universe. He who utilizes the forces and laws of the universe and of nature for the rulvancement and betterment of the race might be called an engineer. "The 'field of medicine includes homeopaths, diagnostitions, surgeons, dentists, osteopaths, dietitions and hosts of othtfs," said Mr. Hollister in illustrating the overlapping of the various divisions of civil engineering that have developed since the old dis tinction of civil and mlitary engi neering, was dropped. "The electri cal engineer deals with telephone in struments and apparatus their manu facture, sale and operation, telegrap! instruments and apparatus simplex and multiplex, radio instruments and apparatus, and problems connected with them, all under the heading of signal engineering. Under the head of power engineering, he deals with larger rates of flow of electric cur rents and high voltages, and is con cerned with the production, transmis sion and use of electric power. How ever, he does not confine himself to this, but is interested in his field from the coal pile to the reflectors sur rounding lights, and the color of the walls in the rooms where the light are." Selling and promoting the use of electrical apparatus were described by Prof. Hollister as among the less tech nical departments of electrical engi neering. "Fifteen years ego, a man in a town in Illinois asked me if an electric motor was a practical thing if it would work," he said, in ex plaining the former need for promo tion engineers. "The sales engineer is concerned with two things, to sell the right equipment, and not to sell the wrong equipment." Amone the biggest fields for young 'engineers just graduated from college, according to Prof. Hollister, are pub lic utilities, government service, and the employ of great companies such as the Westinghouse Electric Manu facturing company, and the General Electric company. "If some day you are called upon to take the chair of a president of some company, do not hold back. More engineers are taking financial positions every day, and their training is valuable to them in those positions," he concluded. Miss Genevieve Addleman, '20, will appear in a Stuart Walter 1-roductIon, "The House of Job," In Lincoln and Omaha about Christmas time on a tour with her company. Miss Addle man has followed up her prominence in University dramatics with consid erable success in the portmanteau plays of Stuart Walker.

The College of Law and the Col logo of Dentistry are out for blood to gain the leadership in the race to see which college surpasses its de noted total the highest. Monday night at 9 o'clock, the Laws were leading by a mere 5 per cent. The Laws reported 146 pledges, twelve more than their total of 134. That gives them a percentage of 10S.9 and sends them out as leading the school. The Dents were close on their heels. At 7 o'clock George Smaha, Dent chairman, had 76 pledges for a per centage of 76 per cent. He lined his committee up and at 9 o'clock he came rushing in with the additional pledges to take the college across the Inn cr cent mark by four pledges. The Dents have .eeu a part of the University of Nebraska but a short few years and students of the college, by virtue of its distance from the campus proper. fome times feel that they are not an exact part of the Uni versity. Their action Monday in pass ing their quota before most of the colleges had gotten a good start puts them solid with the entire school, makes even the Laws look up to them as a serious rival for college spirit. Delta Sigma Delta, denial frater nity, had gone over the top in the Stadium pledging by noon Monday. Phi Alpha Delia, law fraternity which maintains a house, was still a little short of its mark Monday night. Laws Lead. With a percentage of 10S.9, the Col lege of Law Monday night led the race in the contest among the colleges to raise $90,000 from the ranks of their students as the booming starter to ward the building of the Memorial Stadium to be built within the next year at a total cost of $430,000. Fof lowing the completion of the campaign to pledge 3.600 units from among the students of the University, the alumni and interested friends will be asked to raise $340,000, or 13.600 units. The Laws went over the top in the big race, reporting pledges totaling 146 units out of a quota of 134 units and topping their money total of $3,350 by $300. Closely trailing the College of Law was the College of Dentistry with 104 units raised. The Dents promise to report more units by early Tuesday morning and with an equal start in the race claim they would have beat the Laws.
