ROCKMEN STOP
ON TRIP EAST
Notre Dame Football Squad
Entertained With Banquet
at Country Club.
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.

DR. JUDD SPEAKS
AT CONVOCATION
"Where Shall I Invest My
Life?" Is Subject of Ad
dress Given Wednesday.
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

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

New Publication in Military
Department Will Be Is
sued Next Week.
CADET OFFICERS ARE
IN CHARGE OF PAPER
Work has been started on the
Cadet News, the official publication
of the military department which is
to be issued for the first time next
week. Those in charge hope to pub
lish the paper by the end of this
week, so that it can be distributed
to the companies next week.
Emmett V. Maun, cadet Lieutenant-colonel,
is editor of the paper,
and is supervising its publication.
Maun was editor of The Daily Ne-
braskan and military editor of the
Cornhusker last year and has all of
the necessary ability to edit such
a publication.
The managing editorship is being
held by Victor Hackler, a junior in
the military department and news
editor on The Daily' Nebraskan.
Hackler is also military editor of
the Cornhusker this year.
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

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.
