"I wish to take this opportunity
in behalf of the football squad
and myself to thank the Univer

and Faculty.
The University Directory, pub
lished annually by the Y. M. C. A.
and Y. W. C. A. is to be put on sale
in about two weeks. All corrections
or additions to the directory must
be handed to the Y. M. C. A. of
fices in the Temple this week so that
work on the directory may not be de
layed, according to Taul McCaffery,
Y secretary.

copy is being sent to the printer
every day. Some proof reading has
been done. By next Monday all cor
rected proofs will be with the printer.
The committee in charge hopes with
this record to have the books on sale
within two weeks.
The 6,000 student and faculty

them have been used.

lists has been done by committees of
girl volunteers under the charge of
Helen Kummer, of the Y. W. C. A.

WOMEN CAN TAKE ANY
UNIVERSITY .COURSE
Chancellor Avery Writes That
Men Are Not Eligible for
Every Course.
(University News Service)
Chancellor Avery, writing in the
September number of the University
Journal on the relative distribution
of men and women in the colleges
nH denartments of the University,
states that there are no rules or reg
ulations preventing a woman with
proper preliminary training from
taking any course offered at Ne
braska. Men are not privileged quite so
widely, since they are not eligible
to undertake work in the School of
Nursing in the College of Medicine
at Omaha. No man has ever applied
for entrance to this school, according
to statistics of registration.
There is on file an application
from a young man for registration in
the course of home economics, and
though he has been officially dis
couraged, he will not be barred.
Masculine timidity over a feared
invasion of women may be calmed
by the announcement that during the
last ten years a natural partial seg
regation of the sexes has been tak
ing place. The result of this tend
ency 6hows the wisdom in permit
ting free choice of studies on the
part of men and women without ar
tificial bounds or restrictions.
Beg Your Pardon!
In the story concerning night
classes in Sunday's issue of the Ne
braskan it was stated that the class
in beginning English composition
would be taught by Miss Constance
Syford. Professor Rouse B. Wilcox
nil teach the class.

LINCOLN MERCHANTS
BUY "N" BANNERS
Stores Will Be Decorated In
Honor of Important Uni
versity Events.
To advertise and celebrate foot
ball games, homecoming week, com
mencement, and other University
events of note, sixty-four Lincoln
merchants have agreed to purchase
and display large "N" banners.
The retail trade subdivision of the
Lincoln Chamber of Commerce has
advocated for some time such recog
nition of important University events
and under the sponsorship of this
organization most of the merchants
of Lincoln have bought "N" banners.
They are four by six feet, of crim
son and cream, with a large "N" in
the center. ,
It is the plan of the Chamber of
Commerce to phone all owners of
these banners in advance of foot
ball games and other events. Next
Saturday's game will be celebrated
in this fashion.
The Chamber of Commerce has
two big banners which it displayed
last year. The plan will be repeated
this year in co-operation with the
retail merchants. They will hang
from the south wall of the building.

Nine Reasons Why Students
Should Buy Athletic Tickets
1. Every student possessing a ticket is showing the
real Cornhusker spirit and will be admitted to all athletic
events.
2. Only those possessing student tickets will be ad
mitted to the student section of the stadium. Don't you
want to sit with the rest of the students?
3. This is absolutely a money saving proposition to
the student. Here is what you get for your $7.50 :
Football $ 9.50
Rasketball 4.00
Baseball 4.50
Track 1.50
Wrestling 1.50
Tennis 5.00
Total $26.00
There you are $26.00 worth of athletics for only
$7.50. Where else can you find such a money-saver?
4. No one wants to miss a football game in our
new stadium. The first four games alone total $7.50 and
then everything after that is free.
5. Here you are: When you buy a student ticket
you pay $2.85 to see 5 big football games in our new
stadium. That is only 57 cents a game. Who wouldn't
pay 57 cents to see Notre Dame play? Some people last
year paid $25 for one game alone.
Wouldn't you pay $1.30 to see eight basketball
games? That is only 16 l-4c a game.
$1.35 lets youn to see nine baseball games. Only
15 cents a game. You save 35 cents on every game you
sec
' Fifty cents admits you to 3 big track meets in our
beautiful new stadium. Don't go to a movie this week
and save your 50 cents to see these track meets.
6. Only those possessing a student ticket will be
allowed to use the university tennis courts.
7. If you are a loyal Cornhusker, you will see all the
athletic events so buy an athletic ticket and save money.
8. Be a stadium user. Watch our teams in action
in it.
9. We have the wonderful new stadium now. Let
us have our spirit in keeping with it.
Charles Yungblut Wins
Ticket Selling Honors
Selling seventy-five student ath
letic tickets Charles Yungblut won
individual honors in the first day of
the sales campaign.
Arline Rosenberry was a close sec
ond with seventy sales to her credit.
Miss Rosenberry was a member of
the Wednesday committee for the
College of Arts and Sciences and Mr.
Yungblut was selling in the College
of Business Administration.
The committee in charge of the
drive is making a rather close check
on the work of the individual solici
tors and as a result keen vivalry
among those selling the tickets.
HERTZLER ADDED TO
SOCIOLOGY STAFF
Two New Courses in Sociology
Offered to Undergradu
ates This Year.
Professor J. C. Hertzler has been
added to the faculty of the sociology
department of the coming year.
Professor Hertzler took some of his
work at Harvard and has his doctor's
degree from the University of Wis
consin, where he has been teaching
for the past five year. His book,
"The History of Utopian Thought,"
came out in February and has been
widely reviewed.
At the University of Nebraska,
Professor Hertzler has taken over
Dr. Howard's course in social psy
chology and is offering two new
courses, namely: "The History of
Sociological Thought and Social
Economics. The demand for these
new courses is evidence of the grow
ing interest in the Social Sciences
in the recent years.
Dr. Howard, who until this year
conducted a course in Social Psy
chology, has dropped all his under
Eraduate courses and is confining
his work to the graduate college.

RHODES SCHOLARSHIP
TO BE SELECTED SOON
Nebraska's Candidates Prepar
ing for State Examination
December 8.
The University's five candidates
for the Rhodes Scholarship are now
preparing for their final examina
tion. They are: Welch Pogue, Ver
non L. Schopp, Ivan McKinley, Shel
don Tefft, and Raymond Wood.
These five students were picked from
twenty-two applicants by examina
tion last Saturday. Their names, to
gether with those entered by other
colleges in the state, will be sent in
to the state committee of selection
by October 27. The final selection
will be made by this board on De
cember 8.
The state committee bases its
choice on three qualities, namely:
Qualities of manhood, force of
character, and leadership.
Literary and scholastic ability and
attainments.
Physical vigour.
Each candidate is personally inter
viewed by the state committee and
the choice is then made.
The scholarship is open only to
juniors and seniors. Seniors with
a degree are admitted into Oxford
with a senior standing. All Rhodes
scholars are not restricted a3 to the
the courses that they may take. They
may specialize in one subject or
study for some degree.
All students at Oxford are thrown
on their own resources as there are
no class rolls taken and the work
of the students is not graded. Little
study is done during the school term,
most of the students spending their
vacations, which take up about half
the year, in study. Final examina
tions come at the end of the student's
career.
The only requirements on the stu
dent are that he come in before 12
p. m. and take dinner at least five
times a . week at the school. No
organized student life exists; the
student must seek out the traditions
at Oxford in order to really enjoy his
career there. Considerable emphasis
is placed on English sports.
Registration Less
in Ag High School
Completed registration in the
School of Agriculture high school,
shows a loss of about 15 per cent,
according to Professor H. E. Brad
ford, principal.
Most of the loss has been in boy,
he stated, as a new course in dress
making has encouraged the girla, he
said. The total loss is 180.

few can. His name is connected
with untiring efforts to build a
greater university, and it was due

College of Engineering was brought
into existence. Leaving Nebraska in
