HITCHCOCK TO MAKE ADDRESS HERE FRIDAY Chancellor Avery Urges Stu , dents ano Faculty To Attend THEME IS WORLD COURT Mr. Kirby Page and Conrad Hoffman Will Also Maka Speeches At The Meeting Chancellor Avery has issued to The Daily Nebraskan the following state ment relative to the coming of Sena tor Hitchcock who speaks next Fri day on the World Court. He urges members of tho faculty and student body to hear Senator Hitchcock and Mr. Kirby Tage who speak to help promote the reign of law among na tions. To the Faculty and Students: A joint committee of repre sentatives from city and Univer sity organizations has arranged a meeting at St. Paul's church on Friday, October 16, in the inter ests of World Court. Former Senator Hitchcock, whose able address to the University audi ence at the beginning of the World War will long be remem bered, and Mr. Kirby Page, prominent in the World Court movement, are to speak. The meeting will be primar ily for the purpose of giving in formation in regard to the World Court. The necessity of mak ing use of judicial proceedings in international disputes instead of appealing to arms has been recognized in principle by every president of the United States and every Secretary of State for many years. As a step in this direction the constituting of a World Court on the best possible basis is of vital interest, not only to the United States, but to the entire human race. Hence I urge faculty and students to attend this meeting called to help promote, among the nations, a reign of law. S. AVERY.

And, that line situation seems fairly near solution as the season's practice progresses. Two regular ends from the 1924 eleven form the stronghold of the forward wall, and a host of new men are battling for the other five positions on the line. But that Washington backfield will give the Nebraska Cornhuskers plen ty to worry about.

Fathers of University students are all wel come and they will be guests at a luncheon at the Chamber of Com merce. This banquet will be held in the main dining room which will sent several hundred and will com mence sharply at noon. Special music has been arranged for the luncheon and the University quartet will sing several Nebraska songs. The program of speeches will be very short. It will be head ed by an address of welcome by Governor McMullen. Coach Bcarg and Captain Kd Weir will be intio duced. It is planned to give the fathers a rousing welcome rather than a tiresome rounds of speeches. It is hoped to have the entire pro gram over by 1 :30 p. m. In this issue of The Daily Nebras kan is a letter addressed to "Dad." Free copies of this issue are being mailed out from booths on the campus today to the fathers of students who leave their names at these booths in front of the Social Science build ing and University nail. The Washington-Nebraska foot ball game will be the main attraction of the day and a section of the seats in the stadium will be set aside for the students and their fathers. This game is the opening one of the home schedule of 1925 for the Cornhusk ers and undoubtedly will prove to be one of the best on the schedule, as prominent sport writers say that the Washington team is the strongest team on the Pacific Coast. The Chamber of Commerce will ;be the headquarters for the day for students and their "Dads." All stu dents are urged to write home at once asking their fathers to be here next Saturday. Reservations for the j luncheon should be made when the students exchange their tickets for Dads' tickets. WILL OFFER NEW ART COURSE HERE Well Known Instructor To Series Of Lectur-s And Study Hours Give Many students, especially those interested in art, will be interested in a series of lectures and study hours to be given twice weekly from November 14 to December 12, by Mr. Johonnot, former head of de sign at Pratt Intsitute. During the past year, Mr. Johonnct has given this course in Cleveland, Des Moines, Ames, and Cedar Falls, and will be in Omaha during October. Mr. and Mrs. Johonnot have spent much time in Europe studying the art of the peasant peoples, which influence is probably responsible for the charm of color and design in their work. The mid-wei-k meeting is devoted to personal criticism of problems suggested by Saturday lessons. The meetings are conducted in the form of study hours conducted by illus traticr.s of rt. L. H. Gregory, sports editor of the Portland Oregonian, says all this, and adds: "Give that backfield a line and it would run touchdowns from the tropic of Capricorn to the Artie circle.
