mester, visiting small towns in the
state, and also singing in Denver.
Colorado, and in Omaha. It has
sung over the radio several times.
and at private banquets and parties
on several occasions this year. For
a week, the members of the organ
ization sang between shows at the
Rialto Theatre in Lincoln.
"We have had a very successful
season," said Vance Doty, president of
the Club. Several towns asked us to
return next year, when we were on
onr trip. The home concert should
interest the students and friends of
the University, and we are expecting
a large crowd."

ious merriment dear to childhood
will occupy the time. Indeed, the
program for the afternoon include
everything which rightfully belongs
to a kid party, and everything which
could belong, except dull moments.
The commission is endeavoring to
give each girl in the class a per
sonal invitation. No written ones
have been issued.
In addition to giving their class
mates a really good time, the com
mission girls wish to do a worth
while service. Freshman girls have
now made their intimate friends and
found their little group of chums, but
their problem lies in broadening the.r
acquaintance and meeting those with
whom they are not thrown in con
stant contact. An opportunity to meet
and play with the large number of
girls they want to know in order to
enjoy a rich college experience is
afforded by this party, and freshman
girls will be glad to make the best
of it

NEBRASKA DEBATE
TEAMS READY FOR

Should the United States Enter

Nebraska Affirmative Team to
Meet Hawkeyes at Temple
Theater Thursday
. Evening.
The University of Nebraska 1023
intercollegiate forensic battles will be
waged next Thursday evening, April
12, with the University of Iowa in
the Temple Theater and with the
University of South Dakota nt Ver
million. "Should the United States
Knter the league of Nations?" is the
live, international question on which
picked .students of politics, economics,
and the science and art of oral discus
sion picked by faculty committees
will array boiled-down facts and rea
soning for an hour and a half. Fol
lowing the formal debate will come
the open-forum discussion, when per
sons in the audience will fire ques
tions a lively feature that kept going
for over an hour in 1921 until the
presiding officer had to choke it off,
in the Nebraska-Iowa debate on the
closed shop.
In the Debate Seminary room (the
"Think Shop" the 153 alumni call it)
where cases for twenty years have
been forged, all the authoritative
books and documents available in pub
lic and private libraries in Lincoln
were assembled weens ago ana me

organized in 1!HH by Frof. M. M
Fogg for assembling and sifting evi
dence and briefing cases.
Hiirh scholarship average again, as
usual, characterizes the li3 debase
teams selected to represent tno uni
versity. Both of the two of the six
speakers who have reached senior
standing in the College of Arts and
Sciences have won faculty appoint
ment to Thi Beta Kappa one with a
standing of 03.7 and the other, 01.75.
Over one-third of Nebraska's debaters
since 1!02 have won that Arts and
Science scholarship honor and over
two-thirds of them won election to
the Order of Coif. College of Law
scholarship society, because they
stood in the first tenth of their
classes. Concerning the test in prep
aration for an intercollegiate debate
at Nebraska, Frof. E. A. Ross, soci
ologist since 1005 at the University
of Wisconsin, wrote in The Daily Ne
braska this limerick:
"There was a young fieshie from
Lincoln
Thought debuting as easy as winkoln.
But a week on the squad
Made him murmur, 'O Lord!
I'm better at talkin' than thinkoln!' ''
Nebraska's affirmative team argu

enter the League oi canons win
this year not appear at home, as has
been the unbroken custom. It will
be at South Dakota, because South
Dakota, which has already main
tained the affirmative of that question
at Vermillion against the University
of North Dakota, wished the negative
at home. Nebraska's negative team
will oppose Iowa at Lincoln.

.Wednesday is "Snapshot Day."
This is the decree ot the editor o!
the Cornhusker and with a favorable
iky every Cornhusker should have a
camera on the campus to get "snaps'
of "the Bunh' to appear in the 192 !
year-book. Pictures of every size
and description will be received at
the Cornhusker office this week for
selection for the pages of student
life. Provisions can be made for the
return of aL.v snaps or pictures if
specified by the student Wringing
them into the Cornhusker office.
In the years to come, a book con
taining pictures of general interest
will be dear to the hearts of every
student. They recall the actual ap
pearances and fill a place that por
trait photography does not touch. An
effort is being made by the Corn
husker Etaff this year to i. e the
section ts extensive as possible and
include many "shots" of as many

two pages of student life material.

"thaA a real democratic year-book
