The Daily' Nebraskan VOL. XXIV NO. 80. THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, LINCOLN, NEBRASKA, SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1925. PRICE 5 CENTS DISCUSSIONS OF BIBLE CONTINUE Dr. Curry Speaks to Student Meetings in Temple on Friday and Saturday. ADDRESSES TOMORROW WILL CONCLUDE SERIES "Methods of Bible Study," "The Practical Application of the Christ Life," "Problems of Prayer," and "The Book Approach Through the Bible to a Study of Campus Prob lems," were the subjects of four stu dent Bible discussion groups led by Dr. A. Bruce Curry, of the Biblical Institute of New York, at the Tem ple, Friday and Saturday. "How We Carry on With Bible Study after the Session is Over" will be the subject of the Sunday discus sions, Vt 9:30 o'clock and 3 o'clock at the Temple. The morning meeting will be dismissed before church serv ices begin. It will be especially for delegates from the seven state col leges. ' Dealing with the "book approach" to problems affecting the student, Dr. Curry entered into a discussion of the tenth chapter of Mark, Satur day afternoon. Two of the main les sons derived from tlie meeting con cerned material happiness to a great extent. "Jesus never said anything about its being wrong to earn money," said Dr. Curry. "His objection to wealth was based on some pretty keen psy chology. I do not see how you stu dents can stand for the idea of the desire of 'wealth for wealth's sake.' Students all over the country are coming more and more away from that ideal of happiness." The idea of the fineness of mar riage, the, missuse of the word 'love,' and the idea of the Creator that there should be one man for one wo man, and me only, were brought out in connection with the action of Christ in his conversation with the Pharisees. Dr. Curry advocated a new Refor mation in his lecture Saturday morn ing in the Temple to a group of Uni versity of Nebraska students and representatives from seven other col leges in this state. "I believe that there is a chance for a new Renais sance and why should not this new movement start in America?" asked Dr. Curry. Given a dozen students who really believed as he did, Dr. Curry declared that the thing could be accomplished in a few decades. Dr. Curry pointed out that very few people are living in the true way of Jesus. He showed tha, there are two outlooks, God's outlook goes the hard way and any man who chooses the road of Jesus is choosing a dif ficult way. In comparing the game of life with the game of football, Dr. Curry showed that only the man who went down under the interference could win. The great souls of the race have chosen the way of God, rather than an easy life. Before forming a student discus sion group Dr. Curry gave several reasons why the groups so often ac complished nothing. "Many discus sion groups are talked to death by the leader," said Dr. Curry, "and those participating in the groups must have a base of facts and. ideals upon which to lean." "You may come out of a discus sion with rather ragged results no definite answer may have been found for your problem but if thinking is the result, a great deal has been accomplished," he continued. The question that was discussed in the group formed Saturday morning was, "What good does it do to pray?" Many problems connected with pray er were given such as the following: "Are prayers answered? What is the nature of prayer? What may we legitimately pray for? Does pray er have a psychological effect upon us?" These questions were thorough ly discussed for about one hour.

Baskets by Tipton, Klepser, and Smaha, and two free throws by Klepser brought the score up to 9 to 10 in favor of Nebraska, a lead that was never lost. Tipton then made a long shot from the center of the court that entered the basket without touching the edge and then duplicated his performance. Klep ser added one more field goal to the swelling Nebraska count. The first substitution for Oklahoma came just as the half ended when Honea went in for Ruppert. Score at the end of the first half was 16 to 9. During the intermission a drill was presented by "Eighteen future Corn- huskers" under the direction of O. B. Anderson of the jocal Y. M. C. A.'
