AT

The fraternity basketball champ
ionship of tho University will be de
cided tonight when the Phi Sigma
Kappa basketball team, local cham
pions, will clash with the Phi Chi
team, champion of the Nebraska
Medical College by virtue of their
victory over the Phi Rho Sigma ag
gregation. The game will be played
at the Coliseum at 7:30 o'clock.
Calvert, McNeil, Feng, Wengert,
Genty, Hnmsa, Yoder, Bruning, Sta
ley and Wisko are the men that will
represent the medic champs at the
Coliseum. Tho Phi Chi team defeated
the Phi Rho team by a very decisive
score, 31 to 10. The Phi Rho team
consisted of Forcade and Weigant at
forward, Moritz at center, Wilmarth
and Winkle at gunrd. The Phi Chi
team showed plenty of class and will
no doubt cause the Phi Sigs plenty
of trouble.
The Phi Sig team will probably be
composed of Grace and King at for
wards, with Lewandowski at center,
and Higgins, Nicholson or Beechner
at guards.
The interfraternity athletic au
thorities issued the challenge to the
local champions and it was readily
accepted by them. A similar chal
lenge was made last year but re

BRADFORD DEFINES
THE HONOR SYSTEM
Speaker at Ag College World Forum
Discusses Arguments Pro end
Con at Weekly Lunch
"A mechanical devise to get young
people to stand on their own feet in
order to do things for themselves
without cheating," was the definition
of the honor system which Prof. H.
E. Bradford, chairman of the voca
tional education department, gave in
his discussion before the weekly lun
cheon of tho Ag College World For
um yesterday noon.
He presented arguments for and
against the honor system which were
followed by a general round-table
discussion in which several students
and faculty members gave their
ideas.
Due to lack of time to complete
the discussion, Professor Bradford
was asked to continue the discussion
at the next meeting on Thursday,
March 3.
In speaking for the supporters of
the honor system, he stressed the
value of character formation in the
development of the habits of hon
esty through the working of the sys
tem. The suporters claim this to be
accomplished by putting the student
on his honor in examinations or in
the preparation of notebooks.
Some opponents contend, he
stated, that classes are a game and
need the teacher for a referee the
same as basketball or football need
a referee. No- definite conclusions
were reached in the discussion but it
is hoped that every student interes
ted will plan to attend the next meet
ing.
NEW PLANS GIVEN
FOR ANNUAL FAIR
Farmers' Board and Faculty Advisors
Meet at Wednesday Dinner to
Discuss 1927 Program
Some of the new plans for the
ninth annual Farmers' Fair were pre
sented by the members of the 1927
Farmers' Fair board and by the facul
ty advisory committee at a dinner
served in the Ag College cafeteria
on Wednesday evening.
The plan for the exhibits was pre
sented by Arthur Hauke, '28, who is
chairman of the exhibit executive
committee. "With the moving of the
Fair to the athletic field in order to
make use of the Activities building,
it was thought that the exhibits
would be centralized," he said.
The new plan for the parade de
picting Nebraska's agricultural pro
gress was explained by James Jen
sen, '28, who is executive chairman
of the parade committee. The var
ious floats will represent some phase
in the development of Nebraska ag
riculture starting with the first Ne
braska farmer, the American Indian,
and ending with the University of
Nebraska-

Gish Outlines Plans
Basketball Tourney Over Radio
Information about the coming bas
ketball tournament was broadcast by
Herbert Gish, acting director of ath
letics, from the University studio on
Wednesday afternoon.
"The Seventeenth Annual Nebras
ka High School Basketball Champion
ships will be held in Lincoln, on the
University of Nebraska campus
March 10, 11, and 12," Director Gish
began. "As usual, the championships
will be under the auspices of the De
partment of Athletics. This tourna
ment continues to be the largest of
its kind in the country. It is true that
trood many states -have more high
school teams than has Nebraska but
in no state in the union do as many
teams meet for a central champion
ship as here in our own state. As or
iginally stated, this is the Seven
teenth Annual tournament, the first
being held in 1911 with 21 teams
taking part. The 1926 tourney will
probably go down in Nebraska bas
ketball history as the largest of all
basketball tournaments anywhere in
the country, this because of the new
entrance requirements which have
this spirit, and hope that people from
other nutions will help us do thiH.
"We consider that the . W. C. A.
is the orenizatlon to fulfill this pur
pose. Wo have faith In it. Therefore
we want to keep our Y. W. C. A.
always the organization for inter
national good will. How can wo do
this unless we have workers from
other countries to work with us, To
develop our leadership or mako our
program moro ingenious does not
mean that we want the Y. W. C. A.
to bo an Inclusive organization, but
In order to mnko tho association's
work more fruitful.
"We need pcoplo who have sound
religion, the Chrtnt-liko spirit, and a
renl love for people. In other words
we need people who have tho willing
ness to work with us but not for us."
There will be a meeting of the
team captains Friday afternoon at
Ellen Smith Hall at 5 o'clock. The
following will head teams for the
Grace Coppock Memorial drive: Ma
ble Utter, Helen Van Gilder, Hozel
Sutton, Edna Shriek, Ethel Saxton,
Elva Erickson, Helen Eastman, Aud
rey Beales, Ada Bauman, Moselle

Mary Louise Freeman will have

recently been put into effect and
which will govern this year's tourna
ment. It is now necessary for a school
to win at least 40 per cent of their
regularly scheduled games in order
to be eligible for competition in the
tournament. Previous to this the
tournament has been open to all the
teams in the state."
According to the ruling of the
High School Athletic Board the team
must win 40 per cent of its regularly
scheduled games. Tournament games
are not regularly scheduled games
and therefore do not apply toward
tournament entrance. Neither do
games with non-members of the Ne
braska High School Athletic Associa
tion. Tournament games and non
member games' therefore should not
be reported on the official entry
blank. Especially is this of impor
tance to the schools close to the state
border who play teams from across
the state line. If the out of state
team is a member of its respective
state athletic association, the games
count aud should be reported.

Toward Important Game
With Traditional Foe
HUSKERS HOPE TO REPEAT
Team Plana to Turn in Second
Victory of Season Over
Habitual Champion
Tho University of Nebraska bas
ketball, team will meet the Kansas
University five on tho Coliseum floor
Saturday evening for the Inst homo
gamo of tho season. Tho game is an
official Missouri Valley game and
will start at 8:15 o'clock with Fred
Williams of Kansas City officiating.
Nebraska's title hopes rest on this
game with the Kansas Jayhawkers
and the Nebraska coach Is whipping
his Scarlet and Cream cagers into
perfect condition for the last effort
on tho home court and in a final at
tempt to tnko Coach "Phog" Allen's
Jayhawk team into camp. The Ne
braska team Is in the best of condi
tion, and, with the exception of
"Jug" Brown, are going a faster pace
than they have all season.
Brown's Loss a Blow
With the loss of "Jug" Brown,
Coach Black had a problem on his
hands, but quickly did the Husker
coach solve the problem of finding
a running mate for Captain Clark
Smaha. With Ken Othmer in the for
ward position opposite the Nebraska
captain and Ted Page in the center
ring, the Cornhusker basketballers
have a powerful offensive five that
will make hard sledding for any of
the Valley guards. Big Ted Page is
the cog of the Husker machine with
four fast floor men revolving around
him with machine-like precision.
Captain Clark Smaha is the scoring
ace of the Husker quintet and at the
present Missouri Valley rating he is
second, being topped only by Byers
of the Kansas Aggies. Clark is a de
pendable forward' who can come
through with baskets when baskets
are needed. The Kansas-Nebraska
game Saturday night will be the last
time the Cornhusker captain will be
