(By Munro Kezer) In the last article we discussed the "I the Regents and the gen- rJorganuation of the University i , L h,ii look at the work of loon Tba 7s one of twelve or fif . - ), leading universities of Z country whose chief executive is known as the Chancellor. r-v, . . i the country now has an -m- of this nature although the t,.:ifv of Virginia was long run without a chief executive. It was directed by the faculty as a unit with temporary officers. Ai. .vrfpm some twenty years ago, Thancellor" for the ine iw . ,v.i.f executive officer of the Univer sty was fixed by the legislature in the bill providing for the creation of the University. His position is es t;Ilv the same as that of the president of any university. The du ties of the Chancellor have been de fined by the Board of Regents who select him and to whom he is sespon sible for the administration of the University. Under Board of Regents The Chancellor, then, is under the Boird of Regents, acting for them in the absence of specific orders as J the executive head of the business and educational functions of the Uni versity. His office is the official me dium of communication between the Regents and the employees of the University. He holds the unique po sition of representative of the Re gents to the faculty and of the fac ulty to the Regents. He supplies a point of contact where divergent views may be brought together, where conflicting interests may be reconciled, and he furnishes a con necting link between the governing body responsible for general policy and the faculty which must carry out that policy. The Chancellor's authority and re sponsibilities are delegated to him by the Board of Regents. They may be divided briefly into two major divisions: (1) Those duties specifi cally placed under his charge and (2) Those things that he cares for un der the general provision of the Re gents' rules that he shall take such measures as he deems necessary for the welfare of the institution. Um of Discretionary Powers The latter includes the Chancellor's duty to use discretionary powers for the good of the institution when the Board of Regents is not in session. Thus, any appointments that need to be made when the Regents are not a session are made by the Chancel lor. They are valid only until the next meeting of the Board of Re fent. Then the appointment is either continued or someone else ap pointed by the Regents. Anyone ap pointed by the Chancellor serves and tows a salary until the appoint ment is accepted or rejected by the Board of Regents. In the same way, any other executive orders are sub Jtt to modification or reversal by tbe Board although such cases are rare. Although the Chancellor has full authority to act for the Board of Regents, it should not be assumed at this authority is used in an ar oitrary manner. It is customary for Mffestions for appointments to "ne from the dean of the inter "tea college with the approval of the department concerned. These commendations are generally ac pted by the Chancellor Just as his "commendations for appointments generally approved by the Re genia. "Preseatatiye at Public Fnnetio Another branch of the Chancel duties comes as the result of ernic tradition. He is the official representative of the University for numerous public functions. Although ' Kegents are given exclusive an "lurly to confer irees and to Pant diplomas, it is the Chancellor ho makes the formal presentation f1 diplomas at commencement. He responsible for the announce ment of niir..i. wO;:. j:jj 7 tb Ko'-rd of Regents. By their -.ry he is president of the Uni II i. nate' hofr consisting of J the Professors and association pro lessors in the University. The Uni versity Senate, acting under delegat- powers from the Regents, deals internal matters affecting all colleges alike. Much of the importance of the po sition of the Chancellor is due to Stuff Gives First Extension Lecture "The Philosophy of a Ranchman on the Plains of Uz," was discussed by Dr. F. A. Stuff of the department of English of the University, in the first of his university extension lec tures over the radio, Friday evening. The lectures are given for credit to those wishing to receive university hours.

FRESHMEN WIN OLYMPICS WITH DECISIVE SCORE irst-year Men Trounce Soph omores 67 to 32 in Annual Fight MOST EVENTS IN STADIUM Green Caps to be Discarded; Second-year Contestants Out-numbered No more green caps for the fresh men. 13y a decisive score of 67 to 32, the freshmen won the Olympics, Due to unfavorable weather Satur day, the majority of the events of the annual fight were held in the stadium. More interest was taken in the outcome of the Olympics, than in the past years due to the even num ber of men of both classes. However the sophomores turned out in a very poor manner. A mere sprinkling of the entire class showed up at the Stadium. The freshmen were out en masse. In the 135-pound class of boxing, Rogers fought for the freshmen, and Fredericks for the sophomores. Each bout was composed of three two minute rounds. Rogers won two out of the three rounds of the first class. Johnson-Miller Bout Close Poet, fighting for the freshmen, in the 145-pound class defeated Bates, the sophomore representative, two out of the three rounds. Perhaps the best bout of the Olympics was fought by Johnson for the freshmen, and Miller, for the sophomores. Through out the three rounds the scrap shifted from one to the other. The decision was finally given to the freshman representative of the 158 pound class. The boxing matches were ref ereed and judged by Ander-1 son of the Y. M. C. A Fowler won from Wateman (wrestling for the sophomores) in the 135-pound class in the wrestling meet. Trenaly, a sophomore, won from Logan the 145-yound represen tative for the freshmen. Trenaly won by a fall in 5 minutes and 50 seconds. Forbes, a mid-western A -A- U. champion, won from Foman, wrest ling for the sophomores, in the 158 pound class. This was the best wrest ling bout of the three. The officials of the wrestling meet were Kellogg and Anderson. Sophomore Relay Team Wins The freshman relay team, com posed of Becker, Miller, Hahn and Keasc, was defeated by the sopho more team. The sophomore team was composed of Krause, Donesthorpe, Doty and Lowe, running in the order I named. The officials of the event were Du Teau, Tappan, Hein, and Lewis. In the tug-o-war the freshmen completely outpulled the sophomore representatives. Fifteen men were chosen from each class for this event. A very good exhibition of the (Continued on Page Two.)

UNITS Military Instruction Approved By Association of Land Grant Colleges AVERY ON COMMITTEE Courses Produce Wholesome And Beneficial Effects, Says Resolution The stand of the Association of Land Grant Colleges in favor of mil itary instruction in all such colleges was reiterated at the annual meet ing of the association in Washing ton, D. C, November 16 to 18. An emphatic resolution, explaining the association's attitude and denouncing recent attacks on the system of mili tary instruction in collegesin this country, was presented by the com mittee on military organization and policy of which Chancellor Samuel Avery of the University is a mem ber. This report was adopted by the association. Following is the text of the com mittee's report: "During the past year agitation against military instruction has been directed particularly against the R. O. T. C. in the land-grant colleges. The Welsh Bill introduced into the House of Representatives of the Sixty-ninth Congress would have prevented the detail of officers to any institution maintaining required military courses. In at least one state a futile attempt was made through the initiative to secure leg islation against military 'education in the state university. Pamphlets crowded with mis-statements anduoug campaieninjf by the organic presenting an ennreiy uisLurieu view of the purpose of military education and its effect upon youth have been circulated widely and undoubtedly have misled some. Agitation Has Failed "Fortunately the attempts to persuade Congress and state legisla tures to uturp the functions of gjv- r:nu l-:nrd? aid fv5ties of stave institutions have proved abortive, and the wholes trie atd roneficial effects of military instruction have become so widely known through th many thousands who have experienced them that efforts of those opposed to military training failed of their misguided purpose. But in view of possible future attacks upon one of the most valuable features of pub lic higher education, this association desires again to go on record in fa vor of maintaining R, O. T. C. units in all our institutions in full em- a-1 ciency, including provisions ior me constantly increasing enrollment, to the end that the full complement of reserve officers in all branches of the service may be at all times enrolled. "The National Defense Act now in force is the most statesmanlike and efficient measure ever enacted to guard the nation against war and to secure the safety of the republic in case of unprovoked attack and the R. O. T. C, of which the units in state colleges end universities are the largest element, is an essential feature of that act. Without the con tinued supply of reserve officers which these units furnish, economi cally and efficiently and with no dis turbance of civilian pursuits, the whole structure of national defense would fall to pieces. Those who op pose required military education in our colleges are opposing the jeast military method of keeping their na tion from a state of utter defense lessness. Breeding of Militarism Denied "On the basis of our experiences with many thousands of students we declare that it is not true that the R. O. T. C. in our colleges breeds militarism or anything like it. It is ridiculous to assert, as some have done, that America is being prus sianized. No facts in support of such charges have been cited, nor could they be collected on any cam- in America, outn show small faith in the good sense of American youth, or in the funda mental peace loving tradition of the American people. "On the other hand we can tes tify, likewise on the basis of experi ence with our students, that military education as now conducted is a val uable element in collegiate educa tion, especially in training in lead ership. It is not mere instruction in close order dull and in formations for purposes of parade, as is some times ignorantly imagined. These college youth are in training as oi ficers, not as enlisted men, and from ZmoT .nW of the larg Agricultural col Z Tew opportunities in ordinary ac-liege, of the United States and Can- ademic life to discipline youth In ac tual practice of leadership, and the R. O. T. C. provides an opportunity we will not willingly cancel.

HUSKERS TRAMPLE NEW V(M GMniffl 1B-T0-7 X Villi J Stephens Stars in Battle Between East and Midwest with Place Kick and Touchdown; Howell Makes First Nebraska Score in Second Quarter EXCEPTIONAL LINE PERFORMANCE FEATURES TUSSLE Forward Wall Out-charges Eastern Leaders; Backfield Races Over Snow-covered Field for Eight First Downs; Briante and Connor Star for Violet By Oscar Norling Settling the intersectional argument in a true western fashion, the Huskers trampled the New York Violets with a 15-to-7 score here yesterday afternoon before more than fif teen thousand snow-covered spectators in the final home game of the year. It was the first defeat of the season for the New York squad which journeyed over half the continent to fall before Nebraska's superior brand of football. Stephens, plaving his last game on the stadium field, was the outstanding player of the East-West clash. He gave Ne braska a two-point advantage in the third quarter with a place kick, and settled the decision in the last few minutes of play by plunging through the line for the Husker's second touch down. His ability in returning punts, gaining yardage on line plunges, and booting the ball drew considerable comment from the eastern players and fans who were seeing Bobbie in action for the first time.

The men making the trip were chosen partly because they played instruments important in making a well balanced instrumentation; part ly because of seniority in service in the organization; and partly because of faithfulness and effort shown throughout the year. Professor W. T. Quick also accompanied the group. Forty men were eligible to make the trip, and according to Captain R. J. Maaske, "It was very easy to pick a well balanced band from this num ber." The train left at 11:30 o'clock last night and is scheduled to arrive in Seattle early Tuesday morning. It is probable, Captain Maaske said that the band will play at all stop-overs which allow any time at all for them to advertise the University. Arriv ing in Seattle, it will play at the alumni dinner rally, to be given in honor of the team and the Nebras kans making the trip. The Nebraska alumni at Seattle have expressed the wish that the band might be present in order that they may learn and practice the new yells and songs.

Presnell, a consistent ground-gainer on plunges through the line, chalked up a goodly amount of yardage. Violet Held to One First Down To the line belongs more than its usual share of the victory. . While holding Coach Meehan's squad to a single first down during the entire game, the Husker forward wall out charged its opponents, classed as the best line in the east, and made wide openings that enabled the backfield to race throueh for eierht first downs. when giancing at a picture of the first scoring play for Nebraska do not get the mistaken idea that the line was divided into two sections or that the print was a double ex posure. That wide open space in the center was merely the opening pre pared by Line Coach "Bunny" Oakes' students so that Blue Howell could traverse the nine yards with out the bother of side-stepping any opponent. Captain Briante and Connor were the outstanding players on the New York squad. Their line plunges were a constant source of worry to the Nebraska players. When Connor left the game in the last few minutes of play it was his first rest from action during the season. The deceptive aerial attack of the visitors, widely heralded by eastern fans, failed to materialize. The Violet backfield made eight attempts to gain by the aerial route during the latter part of the strupgle, but failed in every try. The adverse weather conditions made forward passing a hazardous occupation. New Yorkers Score First The Violet squad started the scor ing late in the first quarter when (Continued on page three) Y.
