ONLY FIVE OF FIRST TEAM REMAIN ON TRIP Notre Damo's championship foot ball team left Lincoln at 9:30 last night after a short stop-over here on the return trip to South Bend from California where they defeated Le land S.nt'ord University in the game that made them the first undisputed champions of tho United States. The gridsters. left on the Burling ton and changed to the Chicago Great Western lines at Omaha. They will arrive in Chicago late this af ternoon and are due to pull into South Bend at 7 o'clock. The squad arrived in Lincoln at 2:25 p. m. yesterday and were met by Fred T. Dawson, Henry F. Schul te, and Herb Gish together with a handful of students. Only five of the first string men were present, the rcmuimler having left the train at various points on the route. The Irish stayed at the Lincoln Ho tel during their stay. Shortly after their arrival they were taken on a tour of Lincoln and the state peni tentiary . Entertainment in the evening con sisted of a banquet given by the ath letic board at the Lincoln Country Club. Almost one hundred members of the Notre Dame and Nebraska squads, the board of regents, and the coaching staff were present. A rul ing which was said by the Notre Dame men to be fully appreciated by them was that no long speeches should be made. V Dewion and Avery Speak. Fred T. Dawson, Chancellor Avery, and Tom Leep representing Notre Dame were the only speakers. The" Serenaders furnished music. "Our aim in promoting this little dinner is to show our appreciation of the fra ternal relations existing between Notre Dame and Nebraska," said Mr. Dawson. "We do not wish to carry it off with any pompous" ceremony, but only want to entertain you and keep up a real . friendship between us." Chancellor Avery extended the welcome to the champions. "It is a real honor to be able to welcome the champions of the United States .and to know the friendly relations exist ing between the two Universities," he said. "You, representing in your strong way the church, and we, rep resenting in our very feeble way the state, furnish an .interesting basis for inter-university relationships." Tom Leep of the Nqtre Dame par ty responded to Mr. Dawson's speech. He told of the strong tie between the Cornhuskers and the Irish and re lated accounts of parts of" the Stan ford game. He expressed the appre ciation of Notre Dame for the fine hospitality extended to them on ev ery trip and on this visit. Preitet Treatment of Team. "The exhibition which you put on for us last year when you held a torchlight parade and marched to the hotel where we spoke from the bal cony was the most enthusiastic and whole-hearted reception we have ever received," he declared. "We tried to follow your example when you came to South Bend this year. "It meant a lot to this team to de feat Nebraska. When you won from us the year before every man on that team was determined to win the next contest. I believe that if we had lost, these twenty-three men who are graduating this year would have been a much sadder bunch than is here to night." Leep said that Notre Dame was under a great strain New Year's day. The long trip, the change in climate, and the mental strain all contributed to make the contest a hard one. The Notre Dame men were forced to do wore hard work In the first half than ever before, he declared. "At the half, as men on the team expressed it, 'we feel all right, we ar; all right but we can't get start ed.' It was a great relief when Lay den turned what seemed to be a 20-17 score into 27-10 by intercept ing a Stanford pass near their goal line. "We consider the Stanford game one of our hardest, yet I am sure that the men took the Nebraska game ith more seriousness than the form er, if possible. They felt that they had to beat Nebraska in order to make the season a successful one." After the banquet, the squad was taken to' the governor's reception at the governor's mansion, accepting the invitation extended to them by the governor. They were transported in two large busses chartered for them by the athletic board. Vera Patton, Lincoln, has been elected captain of the College of Ag riculture football team for next sea n. He has played for two years ith the Aggies aa a backfield man and has won an "N" in baseball. PICTURES MUST BE IN SOON Groupi Should Make Appointment! With Campus Studio.

OFFICER OF VOLUNTEER MOVE TALKS IN TEMPLE "Where Shall I Invest My Life?" was the subject of an address given by Dr. Walter K. Judd, '20, M. D. '24 in convocation Wednesday at 11 o'clock in the Temple Theater. Dr. Judd is corresponding secretary for the Student Volunteer Movement, and will deliver several addresses in Lincoln during the week. Dr. Judd pointed out that he had two things in common with the Uni versity of Nebraska students, that he attended the University and that he only had one life to live. "I wonder," said Dr. Judd, "why we are so careless with this one life of ours. We just sit back and expect something to turn up. If we would look back on our lives we would probably be more successful." Seven men out of ten do not find the occupation for which they are best fitted. This is one of the real tragedies of life. Most of us could be exceptional and are satisfied with being mediocre. This condition shows that we are not using our talents to the best advantage, according to Dr. Judd. "It is my purpose, if God permits, to become' a foreign missionary," he said. The Student Volunteer pledge was explained by Dr. Judd as mean ing a promise that should be kept as long as a person is convinced that being a missionary is his purpose in life. A foreign .missionary goes out with the one aim that the gospel of Jesus Christ may be operated and known all over the world. "Medicine is my profession," ex plained Dr. Judd, "but the gospel of Jesus Christ is my life work. A missionary is not a man who works (Continued on Page Three.) i.t .j ft ' i. SAYS MARRIAGE LAWS NEEDLESS James E. Lawrence, Managing Editor of Star, Address es Women Voters. EDUCATION GIVEN AS REMEDY FOR SITUATION "We don't need marriage legisla tion," declared James E. Lawrence at a meeting of tho Junior League of Women Voters, Thursday nfter noon at the Temple "I'll tell you what we do need. We need to muke it harder through federal enactment to sever the bonds once entered. I know of many girls who entered mar riage laughingly, thoughtlessly, be cause they knew that if the arrange ment was not satisfactory, a few months later they could sever the bond by applying to a co"urt. Mar riage is a matter for the individual. I do not believp in relieving him of all responsibility; if we take individ ual responsibility from our young people, we are preparing for a nation which is neit'.ier self-reliant nor in dependent." Mr. Lawrence, who is managing editor of the Star and associate pro fessor of journalism in the Univer sity, expressed a certain reluctance to address the Junior League be cause he is not a strong believer of suffrage and confessed a certain con tempt of reformers there are too many reformers and too much re form legislation, he indicated. Several years ago a marriage and divorce law was presented to Con gress. It is still in the waiting room. It seems queer that a law-making body which can so easily pass laws and make appropriations should al low a measure so close to the hearts of the people to pass over so lightly. "In opposing this law, and in speak ing for its repeal," stated Mr. Law rence, "I want it understood that T am opposing it only because I con sider it"a federal problem." Says Law Failure. According to the journalist,, the law has not done that which it started out to do. The state was not ready for it. Even those people most interested in passing the law could not agree so the most im portant condition of the bill was left out. It now provides for a ten day notice of the intended marriage which is very disagreeable to many people, largely because all insur ance agents, furnishing houses, and salesmen of all kinds clip the mar riage notices some even go so far as to attempt to get them before they are printed so as to get first chance at the prospective groom. The ten days before the ceremony are as busy for the groom as for the bride. The present law is driving busi ness amounting to thousands of dol lars away from the the state. The revenue of the county judges drop ped 50 per cent. It is robbing the pastors of the state of thousands of dollars and effecting all business the jewelry business hardest of all. "Those of you who have the best influence in your homes do not re alize the other side of life," Mr. Lawrence suggested. "You do not need the protection of a. law like this." He went on to show that the law was not a protection to those young women who need it most. It tempts them, drives them out of their homes at the most important timej Team Stops Over in Lincoln lfl "11 The gridsters are minus several of mentor, Knute Rockne. Rockne stayed over in (alifornia and many ol the first string men dropped off for rest at homes of relatives and friends alon the route. Jim Crowley, halfback, is in a San Francisco hospital con valescing from a nervous breakdown which he suffered after the game. Adam Walsh, captain and center, remained with friends and his newly wed wife in California.

The Cadet News will take the place of the Kornhusker Kadet which was published for a while last year, but will be an improvement in many ways. This year the paper will be printed and not mimeographed as before. The writeups will be exclu sively on the military department and on military subjects. The paper is to contain four pages of four columns each and will have no advertising matter. It is planned to publish it every month, the second one coming early in Feb ruary. of their lives and is really danger- s. "We can not make people better by legislation, it will only come through education," declared Mr. Lawrence. "In my opinion we are making a mountain out of a mole hill."

PRICE 5 CENTS NEW GOVERNOR UPHOLDS FUND McMulIen Wants Investigation Before Cutting Education al Appropriation. ADDRESSES LEGISLATORS AFTER INAUGURATION Recommendations that the Nebras ka legislature make a careful study of conditions in the educational in stitutions of this state, particularly the University of Nebraska, before making uny reductions in the appro priations for these institutions, were made by Governor Adam McMulIen in his inaugural address delivered be fore a joint session of the legislature Thursday afternoon. Ex-Governor Bryan had previously recommended a cut of two million in the appropri ations for the University. Governor McMulIen in discussion of education said in part: "Nebraska deservedly ranks high in the standing of its educational in stitutions. They are among our greatest assets and attract to our state each year many new citizens and result, indirectly, in the Invest ment of much capital. In more ways than one they pay large dividends to the state. "The economic conditions of the past few years have required appro priations for these institutions to be lessened, while at the same time the attendance has greatly increased in all or most of them. Telia of Poor Condition. "Crowding of students and lack of sufficient facilities for instruction and supervision have progressed to the point where further continuation of these conditions means a perman ent lowering of educational stand ards. I therefore urge upon you a careful study of these problems to the end that all necessary action be taken adequately to maintain and promote the cause of education." The legislative appropriation re quested by the Board of Regents for the University for the ensuing year was reduced nearly two million dol- ars in the state budget recommended by Governor Bryan, and submitted to the state legislature for action Tuesday afternoon. The reccommended cut in the state budget totals nearly five mil lions, the greatest suggested reduc tion in appropriations being taken from the requests of the Board of Regents, the State Normal Board, the State Board of Control, and the State Board of Agriculture. The regents asked a University ap propriation of $7,643,000 for the en suing year, and the out-going gov ernor recommended that amount be cut $1,945,000, to $5,698,000, ap proximately half a million less than the amount granted two years ago. The appropriation last year was $6, 230,000. The cuts were distributed as fol lows: Agricultural extension, $30,000; general maintenance, $695,000; new buildings, $1,200,000; legislative ref erence bureau, $23,500, eliminated. HUSKER WORKOUT WATCHED BY LIEB World Record-Holder of Discus Throw Sees Track Team in Action. Lieb, world record-holder of the discus throw, and assistant football coach of the Notre Dame champions witnessed the workouts of the Husker tiacksters yesterday. He was accom panied by several others of the Irish football squad. At a demonstration of his wares in the shot put, Lieb showed his old time ability and won the cigar put up as a trophy for the winner by Schulte. "Ced" Hartman, former strong man for the Huskers, who has won the Kansas and Drake relays in the shot put, on various occasions is coaching the weight men in his spare moments. Hartman holds the Kan sas Relay 'record for this event. Coach Schulte in speaking of Hart man says that he has almost a perfect form in his shot 7utiiig. The California trip has caused an increased interest in the track sport from the way the men are turning out "Indian" Schulte estimated yes terday that at least 150 men had re ported and checked out equipment so far. The team that makes the trip will go by the direct route to the coast and return by way of the south ern route, according to present plans. If the Huskers run true to form in track this Bprinsr, as they have for the past four seasons, Stanford univer sity will get another taste of some of the middle-west champion competi tion, about April 4.
