SCHOOL TEAM IS CHOSEN
Sophomore women were victorious
in the women's class rifle tournament
which was completed January SO.
The scores were: sophomores, 26;
freshmen, 43; and juniors 45. The
seniors did not have enough women
out to make a team.
Rifle teams have been picked for
the intercollegiate matches which will
be fired during February and March.
They are tentative, and if the substi
tute can make a better score than
the Tegular members, they will be
put on the team. Each woman will
fire once a week, and turn in her
score. The range will be open from
nine to five, every day except Mon
day. Each woman must fire on
schedule, as only three women can
fire at any one hour of the day.
The Teams
The teams chosen are Scarlet and
Cream. The members of the Scarlet
team are: Lucille Buaer, Blossom
Benz, Frances Burs, Evelyn Colwell,
Esty Cox, Kathro Kidwell, Katherine
Jensen, Isabel Lawless, Helen More
head and Margaret Piatt, captain.
The subs for the Scarlet team are
Dorothy Diamond, Ershal Freeman,
Marjorie Eastabrook, and Irene Da
vis.
The members of the Cream team
are: Bertha Bradfuchrer, Olive East
man, Mildred Frederickson, Edith
Grau, Mildred Kellenbarger, Louise
Nebe, Helen Schrader, Clara Schue
bel, Hazel Suavely, and Beraice
Moore, who is captain. The subs for
the Cream team are Helen Lohmeier.
Rose Mary Maynard, Helen Swanson
and Ester Peterson.
Each woman who is a member or a
sub on one of the teams should get
in touch with her captain immedi
ately if she has not already done so,
and make arrangements to fire once
a week on schedule.
PLEADS FOR FDLL
BELIEF IN CHRIST
"No Part Way Christian" Says ReT.
E. L. Hobbs at Weekly Ves
per Service
"Whv doesn't the Kingdom of
Heaven come? Why doesn't Christ
rule supreme?" With these two
questions, Rev. E. L. Hobbs, of Elm
Park Methodist church, confronted
his audience at Vespers yesterday.
He declared that Christianity needed
most of all to have Christians who
lead more Christ-like lives. "There
is no such thing as a part way Chris
tian Christ demands a whole heart
ed surrender."
Rev. Hobbs compared three men
who wanted to follow Jesus with the
majority of modern Christians.. The
first attracted by the personality of
Christ, wbb willing, but did not un
derstand whut such a life demanded;
the others were oualified, but bewild
ered by conflicting duties. We need,
he said, a discrimination of values.
Put first things first, insisted the
speaker. . "We must vote for the
kingdom of Heaven with both
hands."
Vespers were led by Ruth Barker,
and Katherine Costin, soprano, pro
vided the special music.

TRACK SQUAD
SHOWS GAIN
Scores of New Men Check Out
Equipment Monday and "
Tuesday Afternoons
PADDOCK VISITS HERE
The number of men out for track
has almost doubled since the begin
ning of the second semester. Scores
of students, most of them inexnpri-
enced, were busy checking out equip
ment and taking their initial work
outs Monday and Tuesday after
noons.
Coach Schulte had his eye on the
new candidates and was watching
the new men closely so that he might
advise them as to what events they
should work in. The coach seemed
pleased at the way a number of the
newcomers were showing up.
Only six or seven men will be ta
ken to Kansas City for the indoor
meet this week-end, it is thought.
Schulte has not yet announced just
who these men will be. Locke, in
the sprints, is a certainty, of course.
Krimmelmeyer will probably repre
sent Nebraska in the shot put. There
will also probably be representatives
in the 600-yard Shannon Douglas
cup race, the 8S0-yard run, and the
1,000-yard run, and the mile relay.
Crites and Scherick Assist
Everett Scherick and Everett
Crites, the latter a former track cap
tain, have been assisting Schulte in
handling the increased number of
men and the Varsity men have been
aided with instruction of the fresh
men. Several reasons were advanced for
the increased number of men out for
track. The interfraternity track
meet will be held beginning next,
weekend it is thought that a good
many of the new men are practicing
up for this annual contest. OtherE
suspected that the visit of Charley
Paddock, "the world's fastest hu
man," may have inspired some of
the young hopefuls to try their feet
on the cinders.

An exhibit of the work of Birger
Srndzen, director of the Art School
of Bethany College, Lindsborg, Kan
sas, which is to be hung in the Uni-
versity art gallery during February,
will officially open on Sunday, Feb'
ruary 7. "roiessor bandzen waB
born in Blidsberg, Sweden, and re
ceived his education in that country,
studying under such artists as Olaf
Erlandson, Anders Zorn, Richard
fsergh, and Aman-Jean. tie was
graduated from the College of Skara
in 1890, and in the same year enter
ed the University of Lund, where he
studied French and aesthetics. Pro
fessor Sandzen came to the United
States in 1894 and has been associ

with the intermission of three trips
to Europe, where he travelled and
studied in England, Germany, Italy,
France, Spain and Scandinavia. His
principle medium of expression is
oils, but he also interprets his west
ern motives in water color, litho
graphy, etching and wood engraving.
Professor Sandzen is represented
in the Library of Congress, New

lee of Business Administration who
will soon be seeking positions. A
n-eneral meeting was held m the fore
noon, and the remainder of the time
was devoted t.j conferences. wh individuals.
World Forum Luncheon
Is Postponed One Week

Scientific Names To
Be Explained by New
Museum Exhibit Labels
F. G. Collins, assistant curator of
the University Museum, is now pre
paring a series of explanatory labels
for articles which will be used in
the new Morrill Hall exhibits. Mr.
Collins believes that scientific names
are often confusing to laymen who
are not familiar with the terminology
of science, and are uninteresting to
a large proportion of the Museum's
visitors.
For example, a group of birds
which include the orioles, blackbirds,
and grackles, has the scientific name
"Icteridae." The new label for this
group will explain that the name is
derived from the Latin word "ic
terus" which means a small yellow
bird, the sight of which was once
said to be a cure for jaundice, which
ailment was also once called icterus.
Another example is a family of owls
known to scientists as "Strigidae."
In addition to this name, the new
label will explain that the word is
derived from the Latin "strix" which
means a horned owl, a nocturnal bird
which was once supposed to such the
blood of children in the cradle and
to supply them with poisonous milk
from its own breast.
Members of the Museum staff be
lieve that the use of such explana
tory labels will make the exhibits of
much greater interest to the general
public without interfering with the
study of the specimens by persons
interested in science.

Of Iowa Teams
DEFEAT DRAKE 21 TO 23
Final Game of Series Is Thriller;
Ames and Crinntil Fail to Pro
vide Much Opposition
Des Moines, Iowa, Feb. 2. The
University of Nebraska basketball
team maintained its equal standing
with the University of Oklahoma at
the top of the Missouri Valley con
ference title race by squeezing out
with a narrow 21 to 23 victory over
Drake University here tonight.
The victory over Drake made it a
clean sweep of the Iowa teams for
the Huskers. In previous week-end
games they had defeated Grinnell
and Ames by one-sided scores.
Neither Oklahoma nor Nebraska
have lost a game this season.
Grinnell Easy
The Cornhuskers started their
three day jaunt through Iowa with
wins over Grinnell and Iowa State.
In the opening game against Grinnell
jthe Huskers ran wild, defeating the
Pioneers 39 to 18. This was the
first game of the year that Nebraska
has shown scoring ability.
Led by Captain Eckstrom, the
Huskers scored almost at wilL Eck
strom scored sixteen points during
the game, showing that he is getting
into his last year's form. This is
the highest total any one player has
made in a single game during the
valley season. Smaha continued as
a scoring factor in the Husker line
up and ranks well " up amone the
j leaders in the conference.
Coach Eearg used every man on
the squad during the game. Defens
ivelv. ihe hracl-o tom ...
its U6Ual form
Ames Another Victim
After a day's rest the Nebraska
squad went to Ames for a tilt with
Iowa State. The Huskers again
easily won, the final score being 27
to 12. ' Smaha was the high point
man of the game with eleven chuck
ers to his credit.
The Nebraska defense was working
more smoothly than in the Grinnell
game and as a result Iowa State only
scored three field goals. Ames
scored first on a free throw, but Ne
braska came back strong and made
twelve points before the Aggies could
again break in the scoring column.
Nebraska is far in the lead of the
Valley teams on defensive play. In
the four games played an average of
only 14 points have been scored
against the Huskers. The Huskers
rank fifth in scoring in the confer
ence. - I
