Now. Book EchkntbU Later
for Basketball Seals.
At least three thousand student
season tickets will be sold during the
sales campaign which opens at the
Coliseum tomorrow afternoon at
three o'clock, is the prediction of
John K. Selleck, business manager of
athletics.
No -sales campaign will be made on
the campus as in former years. Or
ganizations are invited to send one
of their members to buy tickets for
the group. Such students are required
to bring a list of those desiring to
buy tickets.
The price of the season ticket will
be $8.50. This special price for stu
dents is a reduction of nearly fifteen
dollars from the regular single ad
mission prices to the various athletic
events during the year, and a reduc
tion of $2.50 from the regular sea
son football admission price.
Only football tickets are being
placed in the books this year. When
. . i tv-ii ..iinn 5k over the stu-
tne iuuiu" '""""
dent can exchange his book for one
containing reserved seat tickets for
basketball, and general tickets for
wrestling and track. Under this plan
the student has the opportunity to
choose his reserved seat for the bas
ketball season in the Coliseum.
"The sales of season football tick
ets have exceeded by more than 300
the sales of last year," Mr. Selleck
announced, speaking of the general
football season tickets, "and before
the Drake game, October 2, I ex
pect that the sale of season tickets
will be double that of 1925, a record
year. Requests for single admission
tickets are coming in rapidly, and
we have every reason to believe that
the number of persons who will see
the games this year will be greater
than that of any previous year."

CHANGES MADE IN
BUSINESS COLLEGE
Dean Le Rossignol Announces Sev
eral Important Changes in
Business Administration
Several important changes have
been made in the curriculum of the
College of Business Administration
according to an announcement made
by Dean Le Rossignol Monday.
Three seminar courses in finance
will be offered to graduate students,
these include courses in public fin
ance, railroad finance and public
utilities.
Four years of accounting will now
be offered instead of three as pre
viously offered.
Dean Le Rossignol also announces
a number of changes in the entrance
requirement of the college of busi
ness administration: Students must
have a minimum of two years of for
eign language unless they have com
pleted three years of foreign lan
guage in high school and then exemp
tion is made from this requirement.
Twelve hours of English is required
and six hours of philosophy.
Four hours of business finance are
now required for graduation from
the college of business administra
tion. Install New System
In University Library
The Columbia system of book
charging has been installed in the
University Library.
It was decided last year that the
old system of book charging was too
antiquated and cumbersome to use
in such a large 'institution. The li
brary force worked all summer mak-
in the change to the Columbia sys
tem. Cards were made for each book
in the collection. These cards enable
the library to keep constant check
on the books in use. The new system
which -is" almost universal in use, is
expected to lighten the work of those
in the library, and to make the book
charging much more efficient.

CAMPAIGN OPENS
FOR NEBRASKAN
SUBSCRIPTIONS
Three Organizations Will
Stage Contest For
Subscribers
GOAL IS THREE THOUSAND
University paper will be made
bigger and better. New
features added
The annual subscription campaign
for the Daily Nebraskan will start at
8 o'clock today. Three organizations
will aid In selling the subscriptions,
Xi Delta, Tassels and Silver Serpents.
The three will contest until noon Fri
day. The organization that finishes in
the lead and the individual winner
will be rewarded for their services in
the campaign.
A meeting of the three societies
was held yesterday to discuss the de
tails of the contest. Simpson Morton,
business manager of the paper gave
a talk to the representatives of the
organizations and the girls responded
enthusiastically. They resolved to
enter the fray with such vim that
the result would be the biggest and
best subscription campaign ever stag
ed at Nebraska.
Interest in The Daily Nebraskan
seems greater than ever and a good
year is planned for the paper. Al
ready the freshmen have subscribed
in great numbers. It is thought that
the goal of 3000 subscriptions can
be reached easily.
The subscription rate for the pa
per remains the same as last year,
$2 per year or $1.25 per semester
for local deliveries. By mail the rate
is $3, and for fraternities or sorori
ties it is $50 per year delivered.
The Nebraskan this year will be
as attractive as ever. More cuts will
be employed to illustrate the cam
pus news. New sections will probably
be added. The first two issues of this
year were six pages and frequent edi
tions of this kind are planned.
