nlaved by a lively orchestra this
n&s the annual rmi-uoiimKi uu
which marked the climax of the win
ter parties at Nebraska. For three
hours, 250 couples danced in a dis
tinctive college atmospnere at one
of the most brilliant parties of the
year.
The ballroom of the Scottish Rite
Temple was decorated by every pin
or crest from every fraternity on
the campus. The multi-shaped forms
of the various badges, hung in an
artistic manner, gave the ' personal
touch to the party that lent the gay
ety and the splendor that could only
have been attained by such a repre
sentative formal.
Five Hundred Attend.
At least five hundred students,
representative students frora this
University .threaded in and out across
the ballroom floor, exchanging
greetings, remarks, and dances.
Sponsored by the Kosmet Klub,
the annual Pan-Hellenic party has
grown to be one of the leading par
ties of the year. Suspended in favor
of military activities for the duration
of the war, the Pan-Hel formal -was
revived last year in all its former
popularity. This year, but 250 tick
ets were released and they were Fold
long before the allotted time. Owing
to a mistake a few extras were sold.
Nothing coud be done save to ask
that they be turned in and that way
done. The scarcity t)f the tickets
and the popularity of the ball frus
trated any attempt made to call in
the extra tickets. The ballroom, how
ever, was not overcrowded.

TEAMS TO MEET
IN FINAL DEBATE
Argument on Unicameral Leg
islature Will Decide Inter
class Championship
FRESHMAN TEAM WILL
DEFEND AFFIRMATIVE
The junior and freshman debate
teams will clash Monday evening on
the question, " Should Nebraska
Adopt the Unicameral Legislature?",
to decide the inter-class champion
ship. The debate will be held at
8:00 in Social Science auditorium.
The freshman team, which will
uphold the affirmative of the ques
tion, is made up of Donald Becker,
Maynard Arnot and Volta Torrey.
The freshmen eliminated the sopho
mores in the first round of the de
bates staged on December 19.
The junior team, which defeated
the seniors in the first round, and
which will defend the bicameral leg
islature, is Bennett Martin, Devon
Eyer and William W. Norton.
Direct argument speeches will be
ten minutes and the refutation
speeches five. The floor will be op
ened to open forum discussion
after the formal refutation is over.
The open forum discussion will not
be taken into account by the judges.
This is the second time since the
war that the debate tournament has
been staged. This year it has been
under the direction of the class de
bate committees and Delta Sigma
Eho, honorary organization for inter
collegiate debators.
CAGE GAMES WILL BE
PLAYED IN COLESIUM
Large Crowds at First Three
Games Are Cause of
Change.
Future Nebraska basketball games
will be played in the Colesium where
twice as many persons can be seated
as in the Armory, according to Coach
Schulte, acting athletic director.
The coach asiced those at the game
Friday night how many would like
to have the rest of the games played
in the Colesium and every hand in
the Armory went up.
All three of the games so far have
been unexpectedly well attended. In
fact, many have been turned away,
and it has been necessary to go early
in order to get any kind of a seat.
About 200 seats will be reserved
in the Colesium if the present plans
are carried out. While about 2,200
attended the game with the Kansas
Aggies Friday night, it is expected
that fully 4,000 will see the next
game on January 26 with last year's
champions, Kansas.

HUSKER RIFLE TEAM
MAKES HIGH SCORE
First Week of Intercollegiate
Rifle Shooting is Com
pleted Saturday.
The Husker rifle team completed
the first week of intercollegiate rifle
shooting yesterday with a score
higher than any made in the entire
season of indoor shooting last year.
Fourteen men fired during the week
and the ten highest were counted
in the official reports that were
mailed Saturday noon to the six
eastern schools which were firing
against Nebraska at the same time.
The big schedule tackled by the
rifle team, which inlcudes some 53
schools scattered from the Atlantic
to the Pacific coast, seems to be
pretty well taken care of by the
team that fired last week. With the
scores already bigger than any made
last year, and with the season just
begun, Nebraska will have a rifle
team which may assume nation-wide
prominence.
The eastern schools which fired
against Nebraska last week, have
their scores in the mails now, and
the results will reach Lincoln within
three or four days. The colleges
that fired were Northwestern, New
Hamphire Aggies, Rhode Island
State, Yale University and Massa
chusettes Institute of Technology.
The results from Northwestern will
probably be the first to arrive, and
the rest will come in a day or two
later.
The men who qualified for the
high ten, together with the scores
made by each are given below. The
figures indicate the score made out
of a possible 400.
W. D. Dover 859.
D. P. Roberts 355.
Dale Skinner 351.
William Lammli 348.
R. M. Currier 334.
L. DeFord 334.
J. E. Hunt 34.
D. D. Lewis 326.
A. N. Huddleston 326.
Learning 821.
Total 3,398.
"The shooting this week is against
a group of colleges a bit farther west
than bfae last, and will include New
York University, University of Dela
ware, Syracuse University, Michigan
Aggies, and College of the City of
New York.
Dean Vivian Says
Many Schools Waste
Time of Students
Dean Alfred Vivian of the Ohio
Agriculture College, in an address
before the faculty of Nebraska Ag
riculture College and visitors of Or
ganized Agriculture, said that many
colleges waste student's time through
poor organization of courses and pre
sentation of subject matter.
He told of the need of going thru
a course and carefully analyzing it
to determine just how much it is
worth while for a student to have in
that particular subject. He de
clared that simply the fact that a
course requires the "use of a large
amount of gray matter on the part
of the student does not show that
a large amount of time is not wasted.
OKLAHOMA Statistics show that
students' parents follow 85 occupa
tions. One-fourth come from farms,
459 are merchant: and 174 lawyers.
PRICE 5 CENTS
REGISTRATION
TOTAUS HIGH
Will Be One of Largest Second
Semester Enrollments
in History.
EXPECT NUMBER
TO EXCEED 4,000
Although final figures on regis
tration are not yet obtainable, the
enrollment for the second semester
of 1923-24 school year promises to
be the largest in the history of the
institution. Some of the colleges
have completed the compilations of
their finished schedules and they
show a marked increase in the num
ber of students over the second term
of any previous school year. The
second semester registrations have
always been smaller than those of
the first semester. By noon Sat
urday, January 12, 2,656 had handed
in their schedules to their deans, not
counting the College of Arts and Sci
ences, in which the registration will
be the heaviest. This college ex
pects a final registration of about
2,000. This will bring the total up
to 4,656, over 450 more than were
registered the second semester of
last year, when the total was 4,200.
The announcement in the second
semester program warning students
that a late fee will be charged all
students who do not see their advis
ers by January 12 has in the past
resulted in some confusion, a few
thinking that if they saw their ad
visers it was not necessary to get '
their dean's signature by the desig
nated time. It is expected that this
may happen in a few cases this year
and thus delay the offices in re
porting the final figures.
Some programs may still be in the
hands of the advisers and have not
been accredited in the dean's office.
Comparative statistics in the
Teachers College show that the
heaviest registration began Wednes
day, almost doubling the number of
any previous day. In the Teachers
College 253 freshmen, 235 sopho
mores, 141 juniors, 113 seniors, and
ten adult specials have registered.
Almost four times as many regis
tered Friday as had completed their
schedules Monday.
Following are the final figures
from each college:
Engineering 600.
Business Administration 653.
Dentistry 77.
Pharmacy 115.
Teachers 751.
Agriculture 800.
Graduate 60.
Law 200.
A few late registrations in every
college are expected. JThe College
of Arts and Sciences was unable to
give any figijres, and no? Teports
have come from the College of Med
icine at Omaha.
