tions as to what the weather next
year will be like,"
Radio broadcasting of weather
forecasts is, in Professor Blair's
opinion, by far the most effective
means by which the predictions may
be given wide artd valuable distribu
tion. In the past, ho explained, it
was necessary to telegraph the re
port to surrounding cities, and then
to depend on the newspapers and the
telephone to carry the report to per
sons vitally concerned with changes
in temperature and in weather.
Blair Alone Broadcast Personally
Professor Blair is said to be the
only United States weather bureau
official in the country who person
ally goes before the microphone each
day to give his weather forecast over
the radio. Each morning at 9:30
o'clock, he delivers his forecast to an
unseen audience, at the same time
giving a short summary of weather
conditions in various parts of the
country as they have been reported
to his office.
Professor Blair has been in the
service of the United States weather
bureau since his graduation from Le
land Stanford University, nineteen
years ago. Before coming to Lincoln
in 1924, he served in California, Col
orado, Minnesota, Iowa, Utah, and
Hawaii. He has six assistants in the
Lincoln office, all of whom are kept
busy making the detailed observa
tions and preparing the reports.

Five Heads of Eastern Women's
Colleges Encourage Scholarship
New York, Jan. 17 Young women
who wish to tread tho primrose path
of social entertainment at the ex
pense of intellectual activities, are
frowned on at some of tho leading
women's colleges of the East.
Responding to a query, the heads
of five institutions said that while
social activities properly have a place
in tho life of their students, the of
ficial attitude is that intellectual pur
suits should constitute the main pur
pose of the student bodies.
Social Life Sound
In general, the heads of women's
colleges agree with President Wil
liam Allan Neilson, of Smith Col
lege. He recently told the students
that Smith College was not going
to bo turned into "a center of en
gaging social life with a few duties
to give a kind of relish to a perpetu
al holiday" and asserted he was going
to insist that the "intellectual life
here shall bo the main life, even if
we have to dispense with a large
number of admirable and effective
persons."
The response of President Marion
Edwards Park, of Bryn Mawr, was in
the form of an excerpt from her
opening address to the students when
she said, "That Bryn Mawr believes
fully in the importance of out-of-the
chassroom hours is shown by its in
sistence on residence away from the
world." The college, she explaned,
"regards itself first of all a place for
instruction and the life here must
bear the right relation to such a di
Dr. Slosson was formerly at Co
lumbia University and for a number
of years was editor of The Indepen
dent. He is a noted chemist and has
gained prominence from his book,
"Creative Chemistry", as well as sev
eral other books relative to educa
tion and science.
This number is the sixth attrac
tion of the general lecture course of
twelve numbers given thruout the
year. Three other numbers will be
presented during the winter quarter.
Tom Skeyhill, Australian poet and
traveler, will lecture Jan. 27, Cecil
Roberts, an English poet, novelist
and critic will lecture Feb. 9 and
Tony Sarg will entertain with his
Marionnettes on Feb. 19.
Oklahoma's Finest
Will Be Chosen in
"Big Man" Contest
Norman, Okla., Jan. 17. A veri
table whirlwind of nominations de
scended on the Anniversary Sooner
staff following the announcement
Sunday of the "Big Man" contest in
which "Oklahoma's Finest will be
selected for the 1927 issue of the
Oklahoma yearbook.
"To promote a proper apprecia
tion of masculine pulchritude, to en
courage the eds of Oklahoma striv
ing toward this end, we have initiated
the first campaign to elect 'Oklaho
ma's Finest,' " Jack Dow, editor of
the Sooner, said.
Competition for the position of
Oklahoma's Beau Brummel promises
to be keen, according to Dow, and
the editor anticipates a record entry
for the coveted honor,,
Co-eds generally have begun to
evince interest in the campaign, and
it is expected that a number of "fav
orite sons" will be entered by female
admirers of male pulchritude.
Besides having his picture, cover
ing one full page, in the Sooner, the
winner of the contest is to receive
free transportation to Oklahoma City

President Henry N. MacCracken,
of Vassar, said that possibly because
the college "for many yeurs has had
so much stricter requirements as to
residence than most of the other
colleges for women," the problem of
non-residence has not been acutu.
Play Up Scholarship
President Ellen F. Pendleton, of
Wellesley, said, "I presume that
there are no colleges of flint rnnk
which are not seeking means to im
press on the students thn, colleges
are primarily for the prosecution of
scholarship and that they are not de
signed for students who wish to make
them headquarters for taking part in
the social activities which naturally
cluster about an academic commun
ity." Admitting it woull bo difficult "to
divide in hours and minutes the time
which should be spen in scholastic
and social pursuits," President Mary
E. Wooliey, of Mt. Hal joke College,
agreed with Dr. Neilson's attitude.
Dean Virginia C. GiMersleevc, of
Barnard College, Raid her college
faces a "rather different problem"
from that of Smith Collie. "As our
students are already in New York,"
she said, "we are not confronted
with the difficulty of their going
away over the week-ends. For the
most part, our students are fairly
serious and do pretty good work."
and an expense fund of $3 for his
stay there. The second prize winner
will be given transportation to the
interurban station for himself and
companion and two tickets to an
Oklahoma City theater.
McConnell
And Pound
Are Quoted
Appearing in a recent issue of The
New Student are quotations from
two prominent men, both of whom
are widely known at the University
of Nebraska Dean Roscoe Pound
and Bishop Francis McConnell.
The one-year varsity rule of col
lege football was urged by Ernest
H. Wilkins, former dean of the lib
eral arts college, Chicago University.
This proposal, known as the Fauver
plan, restricts the student to one
year of varsity football during his
college course. Many benefits, it was
declared, would result from this
plan: it would decrease the notoriety
nf individual football stars, and
thereby decrease the overemphasis
on football; it would increase the
number of men receiving the bene
fits of Varsity experienca; it would
make it possible for students to act
as coaches in the senior year, thus
making football more of a student
affair, and giving valuable training
in leadership; it would make it un
profitable to hire athletes; it would
increase the emphasis on intra-mural
sports, and improve their quality;
and it would give each man an op
portunity to become proficient in
other sports which would perhaps
be of more use to him in later life
than football.
Bishop Francis McDonnell De
lieves that college men cannot be
very effective in humanizing indus
try by working shoulder to shoulder
with workingmen. Instead, he sug
gests that more can be accomplished
by the technician who applies a
trained mind to the humanizing of
his Darticular profession. .
There is a tendency in this direc
tion, Bishop McConnell believes. En
gineers once looked upon their pro
fession solely as a means of getting
on. But now there is a growing feel
ing of responsibility to society. The
report of Mr. Hoover's committee on
waste several years ago fearlessly
assigned the greatest responsibility
to the management rather than to
labor. Another instance is the con
ception of law as an instrument 01
social progress which is taught by
Dean Pound in the Harvard Law
School.

Bids Open at Kansas for Addition
To Stadium with 36,000 Capacity
Lawrence. Kan., Jan. 17. Bids
are to be opened Wednesday, Jan.
19, for the construction of the re
maining unit of tho memorial sta
dium at tho University of Kansas.
This lasj unit will be semi-circular in
form, connecting the two present
units, and giving, when completed,
a horseshoe that will seat 36,000 per
sons. Construction is expected to begin
shortly after the letting of the con
tract, and it is expected the com
pleted stadium will be ready for the
Kansas-Wisconsin game Oct. 8, 1927.
At any rate, it will bo finished before
the Kansas-Missouri game tho Sat
urday before Thanksgiving, when the
full capacity of 36,000 will be
needed. In fact, Dr. F. C. Allen, di
rector of athletics, is planning to
construct temporary bleacher seats
at the open end of tho horseshoe so
as to b able to care for 40,000 per
sons for the Missouri game.
The addition will cost about $175,
000, bripging the total cost of the
stadium to about half a million dol
lars. The first units, costing $238,
000, were erected from funds con
tributed by friends of the University
for the Stadium-Union memorial
fund. Two years ago, $80,000 was
borrowed to extend the units to the
completed end units. Payments of
these bonds by the athletic associa
tion have been twice as rapid as the
contract required. The balance of
these bonds and the cost of the last
section of the stadium will require

and so the country
was saved
You know that old one about Walter Ra
leigh and Queen Elizabeth :
There was a puddle in the road, and the
Queen hesitated, and then Walter stepped
up and threw his embroidered topcoat
across the puddle
and so the country was saved, likewise the
Queen's pumps. And the Queen was so
grateful to Walter that she made him Sir
Walter, instead of just plain Walt as his
friends had known him before.
That'r. the fastest example on record of
clothes making the man.
Naturally, now that the girb wear galoshes
and paved streets are in vogue, a fellow
hasn't much chance to do the Raleigh
act Nevertheless, there's nothing much
more important in making the man today
tnan the right kind of clothes. College men
know that. They come to us for college
clothes by Society Brand because these
clothes while they lack Sir Waller's em
broidery are considerably better looking.
Really distinctive! As one precocious
Freshman, a Btudent of the American lan
guage, remarked: "They'd make'a bit with
anyejueen."
