Student Council Letter on Varsity
Dances and Parties Gets Results
The Student Council sent out a
letter to all the sororities and frat
ernities of the University on Febru
ary 7 asking for replies concerning
the much-discussed question of rep
resentative parties and varsity dan
ces. The letter read as follows: -"The
number of fraternities and
sororities at the University of Ne
braska has grown considerably in the
last few years and with this growth
Has come a corresponding increase in
'he number of "rep" or down-town
Parties held each year. The custom
eems to be for each organization to
hold two or three "rep" pt-ties each
school rear. '
"The number of fraternities and
Sororities has increased until two or
three "rep" parties are held every
week-end ni2ht throughout the school
year. If each of the 69 organizations
d in the Student Directory holds
"rep" parties each year at the
conservative C08t of e,175 eacn, the
wuu cost would amount to $20,650
the number of parties was cut
' to one a year for each organi-
the result would be a saving
more than $10,000 to fraternity
,nd 8rority members. These figures
worth thinking over.

The Relation of Science to
Religion
- Dr. Allyn K. Foster, noted speaker
on the relation of science to religion,
will address the weekly meeting of
the World Forum, this noon at the
Grand Hotel. His topic for dicsus
sion will be chosen from some phase
of science and its relation to religion.
Dr. Foster is Secretary for the
Baptist board of education and is in
Lincoln this week in conjunction with

week. Being an interested student
of college students and their prob
lems, he is qualified and those in

it very fortunate in being able to ob
tain such a noted speaker. In his
talks he is presenting some new view
points on the relations of science and
religion, a topic which is being dis
cussed a great deal today. . His pur
pose is to make students see how re

Reformatory Inmates
Enjoy Bible Classes
Taught by Rev. Erck
The Rev. H. Erck, D. D., Presby
terian University pastor, is in receipt
of a letter from the boys' reforma
tory near Lincoln, where Rev. Erck
has been giving Monday night in-J
struction during the last two years.
The letter reads as follows:
To Reverend Erck, D. D. Dear sir:
We, the members of your Monday
night Bible class wish to take this
means of showing our appreciation
for the good that you have accom
plished at this institution, both by
your efforts, and those of your good
friends (and ours) that you so gra
ciously contributed for our entertain
ment last Monday night. Wishing you
to thank them for us and hoping to
see them in the near future, We re
main, very sincerely yours Haw
thorne Bible class.
A group of young University girls
had provided musical entertainment
at the reformatory last Monday eve
ning, and they showed their gratitude
in the letter. Rev. Erck's class is
composed of thirty-five or forty.
other universities as large as the Uni
versity of Nebraska manage to get
along with fewer parties of this kind
than we have. Practically all invita
tions are given to the same popular,
prominent or well known students.
Couldn't this same crowd have the
same enjoyment at a Varsity Dance
if it became the custom for everyone
to attend the parties at the Coliseum?
"The Student Council desires to
have the opinion of your group as to
whether or not they favor as many
n narties as are being heia ar
the present time. Although the Coun
cU has'no power to limit the number
of parties, they intend to use tms
information in making recommenda
tions to the Student Organizations
Committee, composed of tacuity
members. . . .
"WilL you please give the opinion
of your organization regarding tne
following questions:
"1. Is one "rep" party, eitner xui-
mal or informal, eacn scuoui
enough if Varsity Dances "are held

"2. Do you want more Varsity
Dances?
"3. How could the Varsity

BAPTIST MINISTER
IS VESPER SPEAKER
Dr. Allyn K. Foster Declares That
Science and Religion Are Now
Linked Together
Dr. Allyn K. Foster, student secre
tary for the Baptist board of educa
tion, at Vespers yesterday evening
in Ellen Smith Hall, asked the wo
men to think seriously of this defini
tion of conscience.
"Conscience stands outside of the
instinctive life of man, not as some
thing separate, but as an awareress
of the success or failure of that life
in maintaining its statis and its
growth. It is a safeguard of the
power and the time achieved. It
interposes a check when an act is
proposed which threatens "integrity".
The remark of conscience is that act
or that course which promises to
build up or threatens to tear down
what you metaphysically are."
Dr. Foster, in wishing the students
to see that science and religion are
linked together, said, "Knowledge of
science is confirming continually
facts of spiritual life. Nothing fur
ther is to be feared from science as
a science. Those things which now
appear tobe contradictary to spirit
ual life will in time coincide."
According to Dr. Foster, there are
three instincts which affect the tear
ing down or building up of con
science. They are the instincts of

point was, the church offers genuine
specific opportunities to acquire a
great leadership. Dr. Lampe stated

"It is the aim of the Music depart
ment of the School of Fine Arts to
train musicians of a broad culture.
It is not interested in developing mu
sical freaks, but it hopes to turn out
expert musicians whose training is
sufficiently broad to guard them
ngainst the pitfalls that seem to come
to those who train too narrowly in
the field of music. In addition to this,
the Music department hopes to pro
vide courses of cultural value to stu
dents in all the colleges of the Uni
versity. Through its chorus, its or
chestras, its recitals, and its radio
programs, it is trying to create a
love of good music not only in the
University but in the state, as well."

DR. LAMPE TALKS ON
RELIGION IN SCHOOLS
Plans Are Discussed Whereby Reli
gion Can Be Incorporated with
Work in the University
"Schools of Religion in the State
Universities," was the religious topic
discussed by Dr. Will'am Lampe,
director of the department of Uni
versity work of the Presbyterian
Board of Education, Chicago, Il
linois. Dr. Lampe pointo.-l out for the
last fifteen or twenty years, the
churches had been trying to help the
student in some way. In the begin
ning, religious help was tendered the
students in the form of pastoral help,
or merely giving the student advice.
The second phase in the advance oii
University religious aid wai to have
University churches, where students
could meet in common and discuss
their problems. This second type has
evolved into the third stage now in
its making; that is, of having a reli
gious department in the University
itself, or affiliated with the Univer
sity.
Dr. Lampe discusspd the various
plans under which University reli
gious education is taking place lhe
first form is tnat which is unrelated
to the church. The board of directors:
are not connected with the Univer
sity. However, professors in the Uni
versity proper are instructors in the
religious department. The University
of Michigan religious department,
founded by Dr. Kent, Yale Univer
sity formerly of Nebraska, is of this
type.
The second type is that department

New South American
Collection Received
A large collection of bows and
arrows from South America has re
cently been received by the museum
from C. L. Lee '26, now a geologist
with the Lnge Petroleum corporation

Highest Score of Year Made
By Cagesters In Poor
Game Tuesday
WASHINGTON TIES SCORE
Black Forced to Send in His
Regular Lineup When The
Visitors Rally
Coach Black was forced to insert
his regular lineup the last five min
utes of tho game last night to win
the exhibition tilt from the Washing
ton Bears 41 to 34. The score at
the end of the first half found Ne
braska leading by two points 20 to
18. Ted Page and Captain Clark
Smaha upheld the brunt of the scor
ing game with Kenneth Othmer slip
ping through for his favorite tip-in
shots and Gerelick on the long var
iety. The game was erratic with numer
ous wild passes and hurried shots.
The Washington men fr.iled to recov
er many of their shots and the Husk
er guards would take the ball off the
back board, advance it down the floor
and take a shot at the basket on the
run. As the score indicates it is the
largest this year for the Nebraskans.
Page Starts Scoring
With the regular lineup the Ne
braska quintet started the scoring
with a basket from the hands of the
rangy Cornhusker pivot-man. Wash
ington came back on the next play
and Stanford dropped one in from
back on the court to tie the score. A
basket by Hutton sent the Bear team
into the lead but only for a moment
for the Husker captain came back
to even the count and another one in
quick succession to put Nebraska in
the lead.
The Scarlet and Cream quintet ran
the count up to 14 to 5 and then let
up playing the ball up and down the
court from a take off on the Wash
ington basket and then a take off on
the Husker back stop. Echert, guard
on the Bear five was doing the scor
ing for the visitors and soon had the
score up to 11, while the men of
Coach Black could only tally one
from the field. At this juncture of
the game, the Nebraska coach took
Page out of the game and sent Elliott
in at the center position and Oleson
in for Smaha. With a team of Ne
braska reserves, the team from St.
Louis soon took advantage and when
the half time gun sounded the Ne
braska quintet had a slim two point
margin on their opponents.
The second period opened with
Washington quickly tying the count
at 20 all, then Eckert put the Bear
quintet into the lead for the second
time and which they retained
throughout the second half. The Ne
braskans were playing erratic, throw
ing the ball into the bleachers and
into the hands of the opposing five
until the score board read Washing
ton 33 and Nebraska 28. With the
score reading thus, Coach Charley
Black sent his Scarlet and Cream
