WORKERS TO MEET AT DAILY NOON LUNCHEONS One hundred and ten men gath ered .t the Grand Hotel Tuesday evening to receive final Instructions about their work in the Y. M. C. A.s campaign to secure funds from the .tudent body which begins this morn ing and will continue until Friday evening. The progress of the drive will be soted at the noon luncheons of the workers which will be held at the Grand Hotel this noon and on Thurs day and Friday noons. Interest in the individual competi tion for the free round-trip ticket to Manhattan for the Kansas Aggie-Ne-braskan football game on November 22 is already at a high point Two thousand dollars is the amount which the students are being asked to contribute this year. The budget of the Y. M. C. A. calls for expenditures of over seven thousand dollars this year but most of this will be secured from outside sources. The workers in the drive have been organized into ten teams of ten men each. The quota for each team is $200. The race between the teams to be the first to pass the quota is also expected to be close. Marion Woodard, finance chair man of the Y. M. C. A. and director of the drive, explained all the details of the work to the men at the din ner last evening. He expressed the opinion that there would be little trouble in raising the full $2,000 if each man made it a point to see all the students assigned to him. The various activities and projects of the Y. M. C. A. were also ex plained by Woodard. Among these he mentioned the employment and room bureau, the "N" book, the stu dent directory, the World Forum, and University Night. Arthur Jorgenson, secretary of the "Y" was introduced to the workers. He told of the place of the Y. M. C. A. in the University and of its useful ness in various part? of the world. Some of the points gained from work in the drive last year were ex plained by Bennett S. Martin and Monroe Gleason.

Holsey Yates, commandant ere In 1912, now stationed at Gov ernor's Island, N. Y., visited friends Chancellor Avery Reports on University Association Meetings Re-organization of dental educa tion in its relation to graduate study was the most important new matter discussed at the convention of tho Association of American Universities held in Minneapolis, October 30 and 31 and November 1. "The general concensus of opin ion," according to Chancellor Avery, delegate from the University, "was that there should be for the students of dentistry two years of pre-dental work above high school, followed by three years of strictly professional work. "After completing such . a course of five years, opportunities should be given to graduates to pursue their study in graduate schools for ad vanced degrees. Such a course would provide for the training of research men in dentistry as distinguished from the practitioner." The University of Minnesota showed the delegates every possible courtesy, in the opinion of Chancel lor Avery, including tickets to the Minnesota-Michigan football game. "In this game," he said, "Michigan made some very wonderful long for ward passes. They also pulled off some very interesting trick plays." The Association is composed of thirty leading universities in the country on the basis of those having well-developed graduate work. All the meetings were held in the Minne sota Union Building, on the Univer sity campus. President Lowell of Harvard University presided. About Y.W.C.A.

SWEZEY SPEAKS ON ASTRONOMY Uses Stereopticon ' Slides in Last Section of Address for Freshman Lecture. EXPLAINS HOW STARS CONTINUE IN MOTION How the stars remain in motion and furnish heat and light was told by G. D. Swezey, professor of astron omy, in freshman lecture periods Monday and Tuesday. Professor Swezey explained his lecture, which was the last section of his subject, "Astronomy," by means of stereopti con slides. "Newton's first law of motion may be nnnlied to the heavenly bodies," he said. "Every body in motion will re main in motion on a straight line with uniform velocity unless acted upon by some outside force. Gravitation I Mystery. The force of gravitation, present in every planet and star, is a great mystery to astronomers. As yet no one has found the secret of the phe nomenon. The gravity of the sun is a great force in the solar system. It is the attraction which holds the planets, including the earth, in a uni form orbit about it Orbits of bodies, he explained, are determined by the gravitational force and the initial velocity given the body. If a projectile is fired into the air on the earth it rises to a cer tain point and then arches downward. If the path of this object could be followed it would lead in elliptical form to the center of the earth (the center of gravitation) and around the point with just enough veocity to reach its starting point on the sur face. This same principle is followed out in the orbits of the cellestial bodies. Explain Double Stars. Double stars are present in' the heavens and consist of one large main star and one or more smaller ones revolving around it. At times when the revolving star comes near the large one they seem to combine and appear to us on the earth as one great star with amazing brilliance. "Heat of the stars differs in certain-bodies," Professor Swezey said. "The stars appearing to us as white are the hottest, those seeming yji'ow second, and the reds one the coolest. These colors may be taken as history periods of the stars. The bodies be come hotter with time, changing from red to yellow, and yellow to white."

"What is there worth-while in life that comes without cost?" asked Rev. H. K. Smith in his address on "The Cost of Religion" at Vespers on Tuesday evening at 5 o'clock. "The cost may be paid in blood, in sacri fice, in Buffering, or in many other wava. but. recardless of the form in which the price is paid, the benefits of the things truly worth-while are immeasurable and eternal." Reverend Smith dwelled upon thought, time and money as means to the end of a fuller, more complete life. Thought and the privilege of giving the speaker characterized as two of the most blessed gifts given to man. "It has been suggested," the speaker declared, "that the average student gives no more than ten min utes of time a day to himself for his own culture and adancement oi character. Yet time is a part of the cost of character and it is ours for the application." Elsie Gramlich. who presided at the services, explained the details of the budget of the Y. W. C.

SPEECH IS APPEAL FOR TRUTH SEEKING "War is still so tragically with us. and we still have that fresh memory of brutal acts so clear in our minds, that to change our views to one ef peace times we must have truth," de clared Dr. Albert Kerr Heckel, dean of men at the University of Missouri, in convocation at the Temple Theatre yesterday. "Men run on two gears," he said, 'One in peace time and one in war. In times of war untruthfulness reigns and men in general act in a different way from that of peace times. Tho shifting of gears between war and peace is usually accompanied by a great lack of truthfullness. " J. D. Hicks, professor of Ameri can History, introduced the speaker as "an historian of merit and a seek- er for truth." Dr. Heckel is professor of history as well as dean of men at the University of Missouri. His ad dress was concerned chiefly with con ditions in Euorpe today and was in the nature of an appeal for truth, seeking by all people. "Man always has had a curiosity to know things." he began.' "And it is this curiosity to fit 1 the truth which has enlarged anc enriched our lives. But this desire for truth unfor tunately is not universal. That may be attributed to two things, either sheer mental laziness or fear." War Propaganda False. Dr. Heckel told how propaganda used in the World War was greatly composed of falsehoods and very little told the truth. He cited the example of the Potsdam conference of the Kaiser and German officials. Propa ganda circulated told of the inquiries of the Kaiser as to the point of readi ness for going into war. It was said he asked each department if it was ready, and the next month the war began. All of this, he said, was found to be a great myth, originated solely for the purpose of deceiving the people who heard it. Other propaganda on both sides was found to be almost wholly untrue. Even after the war, in present times, Dr. Heckel stated, untrue propaganda is being circulated which degrades the Germans. "They say that Germany has not paid reparations. Yet she has paid seven times that which France paid when it was France's duty to pay. Moreover, Germany is short only two million dollars in payments, while figures greatly exaggerating this have been published." The Missouri dean paid tribute to the late Woodrow Wilson, declaring him the only man in the world who spoke words which ran true to the heart of humanity. It was unfortu nate that he failed to carry out his project Dr. Heckel said. CONTINUE SALE OF APPLES AT GAMES Women's Athletic Association Is Successful in Campaign for Fans Co-operation. The excellent co-operation of the students and other people who attend the football games, has made the con tinued sale of apples possible. The Women's Athletic Association began publicity campaign for such co-op eration when the Athletic Board ol Control stipulated that unless the thrnwinir of apple cores at the games was stopped, nothing but candy and peanuts would be sold in the future. Notices were sent by the associa tion to all the organizations on the campus and the girls selling apples were instructed to ask patrons not to throw the cores out across the field. A notice was printed in The Daily Nebraskan also. As long as the co operation shown at the last game is exhibited in the future, apples will be sold at the games.
