Ririmmaee with the freshman
team last night at the coliseum com
pleted the major part of Husker prep
arations for the game tomorrow wren
Iowa state at Ames. A light limber
ing up basket practice in the Armory
this afternoon will finish the worlc
outs. The team leaves for Ames
Tuesday at midnight.
Ames is the cellar holder in Mis
souri Valley standing. The Iowans
have played twelve games this year,
ten of which ended disastrously. Last
year Nebraska bent Ames by a good
margin, and the indications point to
a similar Nebraska victory tomorrow
night.
The Husker victory over Washing
ton last Friday put Nebraska in third
position in V-alley standing, but the
Washington victory over Kansas Ag
gies the following night at Man
hattan placed the Pikers only one
game behind Nebraska and within
striking distance of third place.
Washington pkys the Aggies gain
tomorrow on a St. Louis floor, aid
if the Pikers should win and .e
braska lose at the same time, Wash
ington would agaia.be third, 4olaci
holder m the valley, one game aneaa
of Nebraska.
Kansas University has a tight grip
on first place in the Valley race, and
only a row of defeats in the remain
ing games of the season, with a vie
tory at the same time by Oklahoma in
its last game tomorrow with Grinnell
at Norman could pry the Jayhawks
from the pennant position they have
occupied for the last three years.
This is unlikely as Kansas plays sec
ond division teams in the last three
games, and can afford to lose one of
the games and still remain in first
place.
The latest individual standing of
players in the Missouri Valley con
ference shows Goodson of Nebraska
in tenth place with 83 points to his
credit. Cozier follows five places
lower with 72 points for the n ;on,
and Billy Usher comes farther diwn
the list with 59 points. McBride 1
Oklahoma and Benz of Grinnell are
two high men competing for first
Valley honors. McBride is leading
the Grinnell man ten points, but Ok
lahoma plays only one more game
and Grinnell plays three more, which
win probably put Benz in the lexd
when the final figures are compiled.

CHAIfGE HIGH SCHOOL
CREDIT REQUIREMENTS
Large Number of Three Year
Junior Class Schools Makes
Reduction Necessary.
The entrance requirements into
the University from the high schools
of the state have been supplemented
to meet the need of the students grad
uating from the senior high schools.
As the former requirements stood,
there was no provision for the gradu
ates.
The p?an was first presented to
the Association of School Executives
which passed favorably upon it at
its meeting at Grand Island two
weeks ago. The Association recom
mended that the new requirements
be installed immedifely so that the
graduates of the affected schools
might be admitted under them this
fall.
The new admission requirements
were then passed upon by the com
mittee on entrance requirements,
and by the senate. Special meetings
of the faculty of each college voted
to install the new. regulations im
mediately and they will be in effect
for the registration for the first sum
mer session.
Because of the large number of
three year schools in the state it was
found necessary to frame an altar
native plan to accomodate the gradu
ates of these schools. New junior
hiirh schools are being built in all
the larger towns of the state and
under the present admission require
ments the credits received in the
school would not be accepted by the
University. The new plan eliminates
the need of credits from this school.

FOR PHILIPPINES
Teachers for the Philippine Islands
are much in demand according to the
bureau . of education and the secre
tary of public instruction in the Phil
ippines. Teachers of high school
English are in most demand, although
there is a need for a few primary
specialists or model primary teachers.
Entrance salaries are usually about
$1500 or $1600.
Vice Governor General Eugene R.
Gilmore, who is ex-officio secretary
of public instruction, left the islands
early in February for a three months
visit to the United States in the in
terest of education in the Philippines.
His chief object, he said, was to se
cure teachers for the ensuing school
year which begins earl yin June and
ends late in March. More than seven
million dollars was appropriated by
the last legislature for the support cf
the public schools this year.
All applicants for the high school
positions must have had the educa
tion, training and experience speci
fied in one of the following groups:
1. Four years attendance at a
college or university, and one year
