A flat roof will be built over the remaining first floor and basement, which will be used for some time until a new building is erected to relieve the congestion. Yesterday, faculty members, publications and depart ments housed in the building were moving their offices to temporary quarters scattered in all corners of the campus, and some of them up to last evening just moving out, with no P'aC6Wreckers began their work right on the heels 'of the movers, and by noon a small pile of old casing wood was stacked on the north side of the building. Plumbers started early Saturday morning taking out all heating equipment on the toD stories. . Board Fence Will Surround Building A baord fence will be built around the whole building Monday morning to protect the passersby from falling brick and debris. It was "a sad moving day for many of the professors who have had their office and class rooms in the build ing ever since they joined the Uni versity of Nebraska faculty, and sev eral of them went to school in the same building. One of those moving out was Prof. Laurence Fossler of the German de partment, who entered the University in 1876 when U Hall was the only building on the campus. He became a member of the faculty in 1889, and since that time has bad his classes continuously in University HalL At one time he taught on the fourth floor, then on the third and second floors, and now for the past fifteen years has ben on the first floor. "I hope to move back into Uni versity Hall" was his cheerful com ment as he packed boxes of books for moving to bis new temporory quarters in Administration building. Professors Give Up Old Offices ! Miss Clara Conklin, professor of Romance Languages, was another who had to move from tbe building in which she has had ber classes from the time she joined the faculty. This was the thirty-fourth year in which she has held ber classes in room 302, where she has the same desk that was in her room thitry three year ago. Prof. M. M. Fogg, director of the School of Journalism, vacated his offices on the first floor for tem porary absence from the buliding in which he has held classes for over twenty-four years. His quarters are the ones which were formerly used as the Chancellor's offices. Tbe University Think Shop" home of the college debaters trained by Professor Fogg will not be moved out as it is on the first floor. Class room assignment to tem porary quarters were hurriedly made out Friday and Saturday, but quar ters had not yet been found for all the classes Saturdsy evening. The schedule for the classes vacated last Mondsy will remain the same, ex cept for those that were transferred to the basement of University HalL Tbe post office Ststion A, has been moved to a temporary location in the College Book Store.

Annual Olympics Struggle a Long Established Tradition at Nebraska When the freshmen and sopho - mores start their struggle for su- premacy next Saturday morning they will be doing nothing new, for Olym pics are about as old as some of the men who will be engaging in them. The Olympics, one of Nebraska's most cherished traditions, were or ganized in 1909 under the guidance of Dr. G. E. Condra. Since that time contests of a similar nature and bearing the same name bave been adopted by many schools and colleges of the United States. The Olympics were first necessi tated because of the unsatisfactory relation existing between the fresh men and sophomore classes. There wss no organized method of settling the antagonism between these two groups. Fights were liable to strt st any iime snu !u ai. p&rt if ths campus. Vsry little physical harm was dons to the contestants, but the clothing was freely torn, and much Lbad feeling was stirred op without the matter being settled in H' way after, ths fights were over. Per haps some little fllow would start the fight and then run off, leaving fifteen or more of each class to set- AGGIES MEET SCORELESS GRID BATTLE Wildcats Hold Nebraska to 0-0 in Evenly-Matched Struggle On Rain-Soaked Field at Manhattan Saturday; Both Teams Trust to Punting for Gains BEARG MEN UNABLE TO Show Good Offensive but Fail to Keep up Pace Long Enough To Make Points; Not a Single Pass Is Completed; Kansas Does Not Exhibit Aerial Attack MANHATTAN, Kans., Nov. 14. (Special) The Kansas Aggies and the Cornhuskers fought inch for inch and man for man here this afternoon and when the sixty minutes of hard football were up both teams were on an equal footing. In a game of punting, the Aggies and the Huskers split even, with a score of 0 to 0. tv Two teams could hardly have been more evenly matched. Nebraska out-yarded and out-downed the Kansas team, but the Wildcats took advantage of the wind when they had the chance and fought off the Huskers for four periods. Old Man Weather again denied the Nebraskans a good field to play on, rain during the morning put the gridiron in a soggy condition. The Huskers had a driving offense at times, built chiefly around Choppy Rhodes, but they could not Keep up m pace long enough to cross the final chalk-line. Kansas Aggies showed some power in the last half, too, but their heralded passing attack was not given a try. Nebraska tried the pass ing game more than their opponents, but not a flip was com pleted. Once the Huskers were given the gain when an Aggie man interfered with the receiver.

Relations between the faculty and students In those days were not of the best nature. The two groups failed to cooperate. One professor seeing a fight in progress rushed out of his office to stop it He grabbed the man on top, who natural! thought it was someone coming to the aid of the unfortunate one at the bottom of the pile. A powerful fist knocked down the professor with one blow. As soon as the student saw; whom he had bit, he dashed madly off the campus. This little business instance shows how unsatisfactory were the meth ods for dealing with this problem. serious a group 01 upperciassmsn came to Dr. Condra for a solution. He decided that a great deal of time and thought would have to be given to the problem before it was to be settled. Committees of the senior and Jun- (Continued on Page Four.)

With three minutes to play, the Ag gies advanced the ball twenty yards in two plunges, placing it on the 50 yard line. There was a chance for the Aggies and they were on even terms with a first down in the hands. But the Huskers held held them for no gain on two plunges and the home team was forced to punt. In an anxious attempt to gain, Coach E. E. Bearg sent in Bob Steph ens at quarterback for Nebraska. That meant a pass. The ball was on Nebraska's 17 yard line but Stephens hurled a pass which was incomplete. Nebraska took the gain bowever, when Aggies interferred with the re ceiver.
