The College of Law of the Univer

Bar Association. Out of 146 law
schools in the country, 39 are in
Class A. This is the first year that
such rating has been made by the
association. The first step toward
such classification was taken in 1921
when the association passed a reso

and not the desired maximum. One
year of preparatory work was de

Prizes to Be Awarded for Fun
niest, Most Unique and
Prettiest Costumes.
FIRST CELEBRATION
HELD TEN YEARS AGO
Everything is prepared for the
Girls' Cornhusker party at the Ar
mory tonight.
The merry making will begin
promptly at 7 o'clock and close at
10:30. It is urged by the committee
in charge that all girls come early so
that there may be no delay in the
arrangements.
This is the tenth anniversary of
the tradition of the Cornhusker
party. The first party, given De
cember 5, 1913, was not called a
Girls Cornhusker party, but was
designated simply as an all-university
party for girls. Since then this girls'
party has been an annual affair. The
first party was given under the aus
pices of the Girls' Club, which organ,
ization in 191S became the present
W. S. G. A. The committee in charge
of the first party, which was held in
the Armory, was composed of Flor
ence Hill, Mildred Peery and Ruth
Brownell.
Prizes are to be given for the fun

unique costumes. Ruth Miller and
Josephine Schramek are in charge
of the affair.

entered a streetcar one morning and
ifter a noble effort to down the
snickers of her fellow passengers
with a haughty look, was punched in
the back by a nervous old lady.
"Pardon me, my dear," quavered
the nervous one, "but didn't you for
