VARSITY DANCES
The first general University danc
ing party in the new Coliseum will
be held Saturday night, according to
a recent announcement of the party
committee. The parties this year are
to be called "Varsity Dances."
One dance seems a relatively un
important matter in the minds of
most of us but this party Saturday
night does hold a real significance
and will be watched anxiously and
hopefully by those who have studied
the social conditions at this Univer
sity. The dance Saturday night will un
doubtedly be the crisis. It will then
be seen whether or not Nebraska is
forever to be cursed with the social
of the rut it has got into in the li'St
few years.
We cannot urge too much that in
dividuals and organizations take ad
vantage of this opportunity to break
the old system. Every student who
possibly can should go. Evrey organi
zation should refrain from having
parties that night so that iU mem
bers may attend.
There is no reason why Varsity
dances should not be a success here.
We now have facilities to accomo
date the student body. The commit
tee has been working hard and the
arrangements are complete. It is now
up to the student body whether or
not the dances will be a success.
THESE TERRIBLE STUDENTS.
Some student of theology in a
small eastern college has published
an attack on co-edueation as respon
sible for the bad bad morals of col
lege students and become famous
over night.
This young gentleman has receiv
ed as much front page publicity in
the last few days as "Red" Grange
ever did even at the height of his
highly press-agented career.
Our young theology student has
certainly gone about it in the right
way, that is if he is looking for pub
licity and there seems to be little
doubt that he is.
If there is anything the public
loves to read it is an article about
someone else s bad morals. That in
itself is something to be cherished
with many nods of the head and
"OhY and "Ah's." But if the pos
sessors of the morals in question are
university students, the interest
grows amazingly and the "Oh's" and
"Ah's" become "I told you so" and
'Just as I thought."

Sandhill Pictures Are
Taken During Summer
The conservation and survey di
vision took 600 large still pictures
and 3,000 feet of motion pictures of
the sandhills region this summer.
The pictures show all topographical
details, resources, and agricultural
and general development. The pur
pose of the picture is to place en
larged Nebraska Views in schools,
churches, banks, railway stations and
publications throughout the state in
place of views from other states and
forpign countries.
The pictures are also expected to
become of some historical interest as
time goes on and the sandhill region
changes its character with the in
creased and better cultivation going
on all the time. The region is now
much different from what it was
fifty years ago. The pictures include
set of illustrations of an orchard
near Ainsworth where every kind of
fruit from strawberries to cherries
and apples has been raised success
full;.
Y. W. C. A in Group
Bible Study Courses
The Y. W. C. A. plans to offer a
number of Bible study discussion
groups this year. One of these is to
be a special group of soDhomore and
junior girls, who are willing to study
the synoptic gospels throughout the
year in preparation for the leader
ship of groups next year. The hours
ror these groups will be arranged to
suit the convenience of those desir
ing to enter them. Girls who are in
terested in these groups are urged
to come into Miss Apnelbv's office
and talk the mutter over. j
Young: People Study
Prohibition Problem
More than ten thousand young
people in the Methodist Episcopal
church will study the alcohol prob
lem this year. The Board of Educa
tion of the church, in cooperation
with thn Board of Temperance, has
issued a text-book of elective lessons
to be used in the Sunday schools of
Methodism and classes are being or
ganized for study.
A large collection of documents
concerning the lubor movement in
America has been made by the Uni

the past. At that time it will be de
cided whether or not a good healthy
democratic social condition can exist
here.
A more undemocratic social insti
tution than the Nebraska of the past
could hardly be imagined. We have
had no large dances attended by the
entire student body. The University
mixers have been generally recog
nized as failures. Comparatively few
students have attended (partly due
to the lack of room, of course) and
the proper spirit has been sorely
lacking.
Members of Greek letter organiza
tions have ordinarily kept to them
selves, inviting each other to their
parties and usually having few out
siders. In the past, it has been the
custom for the gentlemen and their
companions to dance the entire eve
ning together. There has been very
little mixing around, meeting and
dancing with other students at the
parties.
These, then, are the social condi
tions at Nebraska as they have ex
isted in the past few years. It is
these conditions which we hope will
be changed with the inauguration of
the Varsity dances Saturday night
If the Varsity dances can be oper
ated as they are in many other uni
versities so that everyone attends on
an equal with everyone else, then it

so we congratulate our young
theology friend. He has made the
front page of nearly every large
daily newspaper in the country and
that is more than 99 percent of us
ever do. Yes, his future is assured.
He wjll now probably get to write
ior Mr. Aiencicen and other maga
zines of the "Mercury" type and he
might even get to go into the mov
ies. Red Grange did.
Morrill Hall Will
Serve Many Uses
(Continued from Page 1.)
hibit has been in the process of as
semblage since 1893 and is acceded
to be the largest and most varied col
lection of probascideans in America
but previously there has been no
building on the Nebraska campus
adequate for its display. Each ele
phant skeleton will be displayed with
a mural painting background a life
size portrait of the creature in bas-
relief.
The corridor of the first floor.
twenty feet wide, running the
length of the building and across
both ends will be lined with deej
wall cases of attractive material
from the museum.
Artificial light will be used in the
exhibition rooms of the Museum to
that the intensity, color and direction
of light may be controlled. The
main lecture room, with a seating
capacity of 300, will be used for
classes and Sunday afternoon lec
tures. There will also be several
ample class rooms and laboratories
with modern equipment.
The permanent art display will
line the corridor of the second floor,
200 feet long, and the third floor
corridor will be occupied by statues
and paintings. Two ort galleries open
off the second floor corridor and will
be used by the orchestras, band and
chorus. The remainder of the second
floor is given over to class, music,
and reception rooms. The third floor
will be used for art classes.
Pictures which are taken of every
stage in the construction of Morrill
Hall, are sent to Mr. Morrill who
plans to come to Lincoln early in
October to inspect the building, and.
to view the additions to the Morrill
collection purchased with a part of
the $40,000 donated by him for that
purpose.
