SIX IOWA FARMERS
MEET FOR DEBATE
Forensic Championship to be Settled
On Subject of Taxation at
Iowa State Thursday
Ames, Iowa, March 8. Special:
Six Iowa farmers, three from Polk
County and three from Muscatine
County, will meet here at Iowa State
College Thursday night in a forensic
battle to determine tho farmers' de
bate championship of the state. The
debate will be broadcast from station
jWOI at 7:30.
l Of the six farmers who are sched
uled to speak, live have previously
competed for state championship de
bating honors. The Polk debaters,
( Henry and Carl Heidmar, and Mar
jion Steddom, all of Granger, made
up the team which was runner-up for
the state championship two years ago.
j Newton Lang of Wilton, and Cloyce
j Downer of Letts, members of the
j Muscatine team, were on the chamr
pionship team from that county a
year ago. The third member of the
j Muscatine team this year is Ray Dow
ner of Muscatine.
, The Polk team Thursday night will
argue that "the basis of taxation for
state revenue should be income rath
er than property," while the Musca
tine team will-oppose such a plan.
Nearly 100 communities this year
in Iowa have debated the income tax
question, leading up to this state
championship debate Thursday night.
The state farmers debate is under
the direction of the state farmers'
debate council, which is composed
this year of S. E. Bass, Boone; Gale
McLean, Muscatine; W. H. Malin,
Tama; and W. H. Stacy, Ames.
FRESHMEN BIG PROBLEM
Wisconsin Authorities Hope to Give
First Year Students Better Start
Methods of giving freshmen the
right start in university life were the
main feature of the report of the
Board of Visitors to the University
of Wisconsin Regents at their joint
meeting last weeic.
From partii! a uilynU of dnta on
500 students who withdrew or were
dropped from the university during
1925-26, and from a review of efforts
of other universities to reduce the
scholastic mortality rate, the Board
of Visitors came to the conclusion
that "It is evident that the univer
sity needs more than ever capable
advisers of freshmen after they have
reached the institution."
To provide such advice and coun
sel to incoming freshmen, the board
suggested a "contact officer" who
shall visit high schools of the state
fand counsel with seniors who are
plmning to attend the university,
'icir. parents, and teachers.
Recommendations for the strength
ening of the School of Education,
and for studying the problem of mak
ing summer school attendance meet
the resident requirements for first
degrees also were made.
The Visitors commended the plans
of President Frank for a central rec
ords olTfce and for the Experimental
college.

Talks To Grid Coach

appear on the Memorial Stadium field
in September. Captain "Jug" Brown
will call the signals on the '27 team,
with Bronson or Lewandowski ready
to relieve him.
"Red" Ray and Munn look good a
prospects for tackle positions. The
guard posts are both filled by last
year men, but tho center position is
the weak hole in the forward wall
that the Husker coach is working on
before the spring workouts are ter
minated. James will be back next fall,
but he is the only center, there being
no reserves to take his place. The
back field positions are well taken
care of and the Nebraska coaching
staff is not finding any trouble with
such men as "Blue" Howell, smash
ing Cornhusker fullback of 1926 back
in the moleskins for the spring prac
tice, "Jug" Brown, captain of the
1927 Nebraskans at quarter with
Bronson to alternate at' quarter or
half. Presnell, Oelrich and Marrow
at half and two good halves from the
freshman team, "Bud" McBride or
Elkins to alternate.
Only fourteen days of practice are
available for the Huskers this fall
before the opening game of the sea
son with the Ames Cyclones at Lin
coln on October 1. With such a short
practice, the Nebraska coach is work
ing at top speed to develop the squad
during the spring. The schedule for
Nebraska this autumn is as follows:
October 1 Iowa State at Lincoln.
October 8 Missouri at Columbia.
October 15 Grinnell at Lincoln.
October 29 Syracuse at Lincoln!
November 5 Kansas at Lincoln.
November 12 Pittsburgh at Pitts

Journalism Students Uivcn Pointers
On Writing
Paul Zimmerman, '26, former Uni
versity of Nebrabki track star and
a member of The Daily Nebraskan
staff, talked on "Sport Writing on
the Country Paper" before members
of the Journalism 82 class, yesterday
morning. Mr. Zimmerman is now
night sport editor on the Lincoln
State Journal. ,
Mr. Zimmerman, in opening his
talk, explained the need for a more
personal touch in country journalism
sport stories than is exhibited in like
stories in city newspapers. "Readers
of small town papers are frequently
personal friends of members of their
athletic teams and they demand a
personal touch to the stories for that
reason. Very often a story which
would be adequate for a city news
paper would be entirely inadequate
in a country newspaper because of
its lack of the personal element."
The speaker emphasized fair-play
and accuracy in dealing with sports
writing. "Small town sports writers
often spoil an otherwise good story
by inability to appreciate the prowess
of both teams. In this respect country
journalism does not differ from met
ropolitan sports writing; fair play
and accuracy are essential for any
sports story, no matter where it is
to ' be published or who its readers
are to be."
The fact that names make up an
important part of every small town
sports story was also stressed. He
Talks of eating at the
Dinner "When Do We Eat?"
A contributor to The Daily
Nebraskan not long since pre
faced his (or her) complaint
with the very pertinent inquiry,
"When Do We Eat?"
It appears that a number of
students who are employed part
time as assistants or instructors
are paid in State warrants
which are discounted at the
banks at rates varying some
what inversely to the amount of
the warrant, the little fellows
bearing the heaviest burden
relatively.
It would seem that the ad
verb in the question quoted is
not exact. "How Much Do We
Eat"? would more nearly fit
the facts. For if you go to the
Central Cafe at 1325 P Street,
you may eat at any time, night
or day.
Of course, if your State war
rant be discounted 3 per cent,
then the answer to the amended
' question might be: "We can't
eat more than 97 per cent."
It is deplorable that any ser
vant of the State, or anyone
else who renders service, should
be paid in depreciated dollars
in dollars worth 97 or 98 or 99
cents in the market; but this is
only a passing phenomenon and
will be corrected in no great
length of time.
However, the prices for food
at the Central Cafe are so rea
sonable when you consider the
quality of the food and the ser
vice that the discount on your
State warrant can be recouped
by eating there. Why not try
it?
(To be continued)
1325 P
t r 1 ii
by Paul Zimmerman
cautioned the journalism students as
to the accuracy of names eaying, "in
correct names in a story are worse
than no names at all and the reader
who detects such errors in names is
immediately willing to discredit the
whole story."
Mr. Zimmerman was asked to talk
to the journalism class in order to
give the beginning writers some ideas
of what their duties would be in re
porting games in the coming state
basketball tournament -He outlined
the different methods used in scoring
games and pointed out some of the
difficulties that reporters will en
counter in sports writing.
