S, !ost its first Valley basketball
came of the season here Friday to
the Kansas Aprils by a 34 to 23
tount. The outcome of the game
Memed a toss-up until the last seven
minutes when the visitors sank a
succession of shots that gave them
, secure margin.
Byers, scoring ace for the Aggies,
wns the high-point man of the game
with seven field shots and two free
throws, a totnl of sixteen points. He
was hitting the hoop from all angles
and was largely instrumental In cut
ting down the early lead of the Huslc-
ers and keeping the score on even
terms until his mates were successful
in locating the
TBA Pace, lengthy pivot-man for
the Husker five, played the best
'game of his basketball career. Be
sides being the keyman in keeping
the from the Kansas Aggie basket,
he chalked up a couple of field shots
and made good assists on other scor
ing plays. It was when he tired in
the second half that the Kansas play
ers began sifting through the Ne
' braska five-man defense and scoring
on set-ups.
Captain Smaha came in at the half
and started another p-ally i a
couple of shots that sent the count
to a three-point lead for the Huskers.
Other attempts later in the half fell
short of the basket by a few inches.
Othmer and Olson, both playing their
first game of varsity competition,
shared the four-point scoring honors
with Smaha and Page. Holm and
Krahl were other sophomores who
played their initial game in Valley
.circles.
Edwards and Mertel, defenders of
the Kansas basket, were two reasons
why so many Husker bits of team
work failed to end in scoring plays.
Osborne, Skradski, and Weddle were
the Kansas players who featured in
the final spurt which tucked the
game safely away for the visitors.
Although "Nebraska lost the game
and displayed a defense which was
unable to stand the repeated attacks
of the visitors, it showed in the first
few minutes that it has considerable
ability. The way in which the start-,
ing quintet played an air-tight de
fense, worked the ball down the floor
and hit the basket makes followers of
Coach Black's basketeers feel confi
dent that things will be different
when Nebraska plays the next game
on the court on January 22 against
Drake.
Nebraska opened the game with a
whirlwind attack that resulted in all
five plpyers scoring on either field
shots or free throws-within the first
five minutes of play, a rather un
usual incident. The 'Aggies, who
were bewildered by the Husker play,
were slow in getting their scoring
machine to functioning., Byers be

up the time he heard "The Messiah"
sung in Germany. It is as follows:
"Imagine my great surprise, when,
upon throwing the switch on my ra
dio this morning, I heard Handel's
"Messiah", by the chorus of the Uni
versitv of Nebraska. I wish to in
form you that your rendition of the
famous oratorio was most splendid,
una t.it the reception was very
clear. Whilst listening to your excel
lent program, I could not refrain
from taking a position again, in
spirit, on the Cathedral Square of
Aix-La-Chappelle, Germany, where
thirty-one years ago last summer, I
heard "The Messiah' rendered from
the top gallery of the Cathedral
Spire at the occasion of a great reh-,
gious celebration. Thanking you for
your truly artistic treat of this mor-i
ning, and wishing Merry Christmas
and Happy New Year to your man-j

IMMORALITY SEEMS
DECREASING TODAY
Colleges Improving; Despite Changing
Standards of Freedom; Shown
By. Pastor's Survey
Immorality in colleges in this coun
try is not growing although changing
standards of freedom are in evidence
in universities and colleges today,
according to Dr. C. W. Harris, Pres
byterian paetor at Indiana univer
sity, who sent questionnaires to four
teen universities.
Some of the replies that he re
ceived follow:
"After fourteen years in this
university as undergraduate, grad
uate and director of student activi
ties, I can honestly say conditions
among the students, as related to
morals, are on a higher, franker,
more honest plane now than ever be
fore," said one.
"I was somewhat horrified by the
moral conditions which I found in
college ten years ago," said another.
"My feeling is that they are not
worse today and I like to believe they
are somewhat better."
"I think there is less modesty
among the women and because the
women do not command the highest
respect of men, there is less chivalry
on the part of the latter," was an
other answer received.
It seems to be the consensus, de
clared Dr. Harris, that there is little
drinking at the universities, one cor
respondent asserting that there was
less drinking now than three years
ago at his school.

"Positive Health" Lecture Given
Home Ec Students by Dr. Hedges
"Positive Health" was the subject
of a lecture by Dr. Caroline Hedges
before the Home Economics section
Thursday morning at the College of
Agriculture. "Positive Health," Dr.
Hedges said is the kind of health a
person should have when he is out
of bed and out of the doctor's clut
ches to give that vigor required of
everyday living. "Health is a growth
and every person must have it to ac
company old age."
Five fundamentals of positive
health were discussed. The first of
these was the highest possible per
sonal beauty, under which came the
complexion, coming from within and
not applied on the surface. The sec
ond fundamental of health was nor
mal weight. "You wouldn't turn a
cow or a horse into a corn crib be
cause you know be would eat so
much that he would founder. Why
then, cannot human beings guard
their own health by sensible eating?"
Dr. Hedges emphasized the fact
that all dieting should be attempted
only under the direction of a reliable
physician, and no person should lose
more than two pounds a week. A
thin person is more susceptible to tu
berculosis and internal deformity
and always has a greater nervous reaction.

The interfratemity basketball
tournament opened Saturday with
eight contests, which were won by
Delta Tau Delta, Sigma Fhi Epsilon,
Delta Sigma Lambda, Pi Kappa Al
pha, Thi Kappa Psi, Phi Gamma Del
ta, Alpha Gamma Rho, and Sigma
Alpha Epsilon.
Sigma Phi Epsilon triumphed over
Phi Delta Theta at 10 o'clock, in
one of the games which initiated
play by the score of 82 to 22. The
Sig Eps lead throughout the game
but were constantly threatened by
their opponents. The Sigma Phi Ep
silon team showed a lot of power
in their offense, with Miller, Hecht
and Kahler. Miller was the high point
man of the game with eleven mark
ers. Snethin had the best eye of the
Phi Delt five, but was ably helped
by opportune shots by Mentzer and
Nimmo. Fast playing characterized
the game.
Delta Tau Delta snowed Kappa
Psi under 24 to 7. Bronson topped
the scorers with eight and Keating
followed him with seven. Moseman,
Kappa Psi center and Cannon, for
ward, garnered three points each for
the best scores on their side.
Zeta Beta Tau and Delta Sigma
Lambda engaged in a rough and tum
ble tilt from which the latter emer
ged victorious by the score of 21 to
8. Yabroff and Kully were the sole
scorers for Z. B. T. with two field
goals apiece. Schiefen did the best
for Delta Sigma Lambda. Wright
also looked well; at least the game
always speeded up when he went in.
Pi Kappa Alpha walked away from
Kappa Rho Sigma in one of the mor
ning games, allowing them only two
pointers, while they were chalking up
thirty-four. All the five men start
ing the game for the Pi K. A.'s
scored at least one field goal. Mc
Bride and Kudlacek slipped in a free
throw apiece to make the total for
Kappa Rho Sigma.
Thi Kappa Psi won the closest
game, from a score standpoint, but
they looked much better than the
points show. Twenty to 11 was the
final in the contest with Farm House.
Grosshans, Phi Kappa Psi, was the
high man in the point column
with nine. He was closely pushed by
his teammate, Swenson, with eight,
(Continued on Page Three.)
Good posture was emphasized as
an important health factor. The three
fundamentals of good posture are to
throw the weight on the balls of the
feet, keep the shoulders easy, and to
hold the chest up.
The third fundamental of health
was vitality, which is determined by
a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and
a body unconscious of any pain.
The fourth fundamental she said
was nervous balance which is meas
ured by the ability to sleep well, and
to control the temper..
The fifth fundamental was the
ability to get along with other
people.
We must clear the field for health
and then acquire it by right living.
Such causes of sickness as infected
tonsils and teeth, eyestrain, and im
proper mental attitude must be re
moved before good health can' be ob
tained, Dr. Hedges declared. The
best way to create the right mental
attitude is to acquire an avocation
that will lead to constructive work,
and then practice it. Reading does
not fill the bill, but creative work
such as sewing, fainting, and garden
ing gives the thing sought After a
proper mental attitude as an aid to
positive health, she concluded.
