V.'hat Place Does Univer
sity Night Fill For You?
i he pood to the Bchool, arranKfununts
should bo nmdo to have a series of
iMmtes a schedule such as Is worked
out for our minor sports.
When Nebraska odopes the single
tax plan, serious coliHldoratlon should
ie given to the Inclusion of debate as
an activity worthy ofylOO per cent
support. The financial problem until
then will bo a drawback to the do
velopment of a schedule of debates
with first-rate Universities.
University Night is loss than two
week a away.
What kind of a program appeals Id
the students?
Is "The Shun" liked by the stu
dents and just how far should it go
in pointing out the weaknesses ol
fellow-students and facully member.-.?
These questions are uppermost in
the minds of committees and organ
izations who are preparing ffie pro
gram for Nebraska's annual istunt
night University Night sponsored by
the Y. M. C. A.
Tickets for the program at the
Orpheum go on sale this week and
this w ek will see the completion oH
the subject matter of the skits which
are to be given. Now, then, is the
time for students to express their
opinions on the place which Univer
sity Night should fill on the campus.
The vital question seems to be
how far shall personalities be al
lowed to enter the skits. At the out
set we must realize that any program
which makes sport of some students
or faculty members, even though the
joqes are all in fun and are exaggera
tions, will be criticized by some. The
committee realizes that it cannot i
please all of the students with every
part of the program.
University Night is the one time
during the year whin students arc
supposed to have the light to "pliy
up" the frailties of those about them.
It is claimed tha more than one
conceited person has been cussed by
cruel publicity from the press or jtage
on University Night. But how are we
to be sure that we stop at the right
place and do not injure reputations 1 y
well-meant but untrue statements? In
sinuations have often done a world
of damage when the author mea"t
nothing more than a passing juke.
Th problem is a hard one to salve
Hardly anyone will champion the
abolishment of such time-honored tra
dition as University Night and "if
Shun. Ideas to Improve these t:a
titions will be priute,' this week In
this column if you send your idea ti
the Nebraskan office.

KANSAS HOLDS LEAD
IN CONFERENCE RAGE

Haven't Nebraska students all
learned the psychology of basketball?
Don't they realize that the logical
time to cheer on a team is when tho
score stands in favor of the opposing
team?
The cage games this week showea
the traditional Nebraska spirit at a
low ebb. It is no excuse to say lhat
the team is not winning all the line.
Let's not let our "fight" run in
Btreaks, but consistently show all
our athletic teams that we are back
of them to the limit.
It goes to show that the League of
Nations question is far from dead
when the Nebraska debaters announce
as their subject for the coming sea
son the problem of whether or not
the United States should enter the
association of nations.
Prospects of a debate with some
other middle-western college should
eerre as an Incentive for a large
gTOup of students turning toward "the
thinkshop" in University hall for pr
liminary work. Nebraska should
have more inter-collegiate debates.
Not o"'v for the experience which
the debaters would secure, but for
Lawrence. Kan. Bulwarked by the
presence of Woestemeyer, the running
mate of the flashy Uody of last sea
son, the Crimson and Blue quintet is
looking forward to a good race with
Missouri on ihe home stretch, novv
that the half of the schedule is com
pleted. The first game of the month
for the Oreadors will be with the Kan
sas Aggies on February 7.
So far, the Aggies have been having
an unusual portion of ill-luck as far as
winning games is concerned. The first
blow to their morale came with the
loss of the first tilt of the year to Ne
braska, 21 to lii, and since then the
quintet has entered five more scores
on the debit side of the ledger.
Outside of the Mizzoo Tigers, the
Oklahoma Sooners were the first in
ihe Valley Conference to throw a scare
into ihe pace-setting conference lead
ers so far this season.
When the wily and altogether too
lucky Wallace, of the southern quintet,
flipped the sphere into the basket in
the first thirty seconds of the second
period of the game, ihe Kansans
smiled confidently. The score stood
13 to 12. Hut when he duplicated the
performance about fifteen seconds
later, Kndacott, Jayhawker captain,
called time out, and the Sooner really
was over.
Ackeniian, Ihe sensational sopho
more, has been worrying the enemy
with his fine floor work and uncanny
connecting ability vhich he has dis
played so far this season. Kndacott
Is captaining the team and breaking
up rallies around the Sunflower basket
w it li his usual consistency. Mack, too,
is playing a stellar game at guard.
Bowman, the 129-pound running
mate of Ackerman, has not been sink
ing .he ball through the hoop for
points as regularly as he might, but
his floor work is good. Wulf, at cen
ter, is developing in his third season
on the Kansas team into a formidable
defensive man and an excellent goal
shooter. Only one team, the K. C. Athletic
Club, has been able to give the Kan
sans the count this season, and the
national amateur champions of last
season barely nosed out the locals at
that. The club took over the Lowe
and Campbell quintet last year.
Only two games remain to Kansas
to be played on foreign courtsi with
Nebraska at Lincoln on February 12,
and with the Aggies at Manhattan on
the twentieth of the month. The other
five tilts will take place on the Rob
inson court.

lshable freight if a severe drop in
temporature Is predicted with a mini
mum below zero.
Contrary to what many persons be
lieve, Nebraska's climate is not chang
Ing, declares Professor Loveland. Rec
ords covering sixty years sustain this
judgment. Snowfall, wind, rainfall,
temperature, and other weather con
ditions are the same now as decadeB
ago.
That the weather forecasts are ac-.
curate 85 per cent of the time, states
Professor Loveland. Persons often
regard forecasts ns guesses, because
a few forecasts have been in error.
Misunderstanding sometimes arises
from the fact that il Is not understood
what periods are covered by the fore
cast. A prediction for the day means
from 7 a. m. to 7 p. m., and for the
night from 7 p. m. to 7 a. m.
Weather is determined by large
areas of high and low air pressure
moving in a general direction of woM
to east. These areas are charted on
weather maps published in many daily
newspapers. Four to five days are
required for an area to pass over the
United States. High pressure it) tho
north and low in the south will cause
north wind, nnd vice versa. High
pressure at. a particular place usually
means cold, clear -weather, while a
low pressure spells rain, snow er bad
weather. These areas rotate In n
counter-cockwise direction. Wind di
rection, clouds, and rain or snow art
charted on all weather maps. It is
from nil this information that weather
is predicted.
The high-pressure and low-pressure
areas enter the United States mainly
from the northwest or the north. If
it were possible to charter thes
areas accurately before their entrance,
weather could be predicted a longer
time in advance. Ships on the Pacific
are now sending much of this infor
mation, as do stations in Alaska anfi
in Canada. More wireless stations
are to be erected near the Arctic cir
cle, and it is hoped that daU, from
them will enable more accurate forecasts.
make It count. Ames took time out.
Warren then dropped in a neat one
handed Phot from under the basket.
Klepser fouled and Greene ran up an
other point. Roberts was called for
holding and Warren made it good.
Klepser and Raff were penalized on a
double-foul. Both were made, bring
the score to 13 and 14, Nebraska hav
ing charge of the unlucky number.
Cozier went in for Klepser.
The Husker captain counted a foul
from Young, knotting the count at 14.
Three more free throws and a bas
ket by Raff brought the Farmers'
score to 19. Warren put through two
more field goals, making the count
17 to 19. lie went the limit on fouls,
however, and Coach Frank ran In
more freetosses. and made the final
score 17 to 21.
