At Nebraska
BEGINS AT EIGHT O'CLOCK
Two Audience Votes and Open
Forum Discussion Will
Be Features
International debate will hold sway
on the Nebraska campus Monday

tion, "This house thinks that the eth
ics of the modern business world are
incompatible with sound morality,"
against the University of Nebraska.
The debate will start at eight o'clock
in Grant Memorial hall. Former
Governor Samuel R. McKelvie will
act as chairman.
Advance ticket sale and inquiries
concerning the debate indicate that
the attendance will be the largest in
the history of Nebraska forensics.
The English debaters have drawn uni
usual crowds for debate in their ap
pearances in this country in the last
few years. Cambridge drew 2,000
at Portland, Maine. An Oxford
team last year drew 2,000 in t.
Louis and 2,000 in Pittsburgh, being
forced to turn 1,000 away in that
city.
Oppoit Poliica! Views
Representing each of the three im
portant political groups of England,
the three Cambridge debaters form
an interesting combination. Cam
bridge will be represented by M. A.
B. King-Hamilton, Herbert Lionel
Elvin, and Hugh Mackintosh Foot.
Mr. King-Hamilton is a conservative,
Mr. Elvin a socialist, and Mr. Foot
a liberal.
Nebraska will be represented by
David A. Fellman, Robert Baldwin,
and George E. Johnson. Fellman
and Johnson are both former var
sity debaters and members of Delta
Sigma Rho, national forensic frater
nity. Mr. Baldwin, 8 law student,
is in his first year on the Nebraska
campus, having taken his pre-law
work in Tennessee.
Audience Hu Votes
An audience vote before and after
the debate and the open forum at the
close will furnish an opportunity for
audience participation in the debate.
The audience will vote as to their
beliefs on the question before the
debate. They will vote on the same
manner at the close, any change in
sentiment, tending to indicate supe
rior debating on the part of the team

first mailing was made of Mrs. True
Homemaker's radio recipes. Mrs.
True Homemaker talks each Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday morning at
10:30 at the Uriversity of Nebraska
radio studio. One feature of each
talk is one or more recipes that have
been tried, out and found satisfac
tory. Copies of these recipes are
then mailed twice each month to
those who ask to be on the mailing
list.
This is the second year thai; this
service has been given rab list
eners. Experiments are being made
now with question and answer pe
riods at 12:30 in the noon hour and
fin attempt is being made to give
prompt and accurate answers to in
quiries sent in through the mail to
the college. Most of these questions
will be of interest to men. If the
response to this noon period is good,
it may become a regular feature of
the 1928 farm radio program of the
university.

Posture Defects Are
Discussed by Co-Eds
In Ag College Class
An out-of-the-ordinary class dis
cussion was held in the home econ
omics classes last week when Miss
Rousch from the physical education
department visited them. The pur
pose of the discussion was to pre
sent ways of correcting delects oi
the posture of the girls. It v the
dress fowns, made of each girl, uui
pointed out very distinctly the many
defects.
After an individual analysis of ab
normalities and their possible reme
dies. Miss Rousch suggested exer
cises by which each might be helped.
As an example, continuous wearing
high heels tends to cause a girl to
sway her back, thus making the hips
too prominent.
A chanze has been made m con
ducting the physical education classes
at the college of agriculture campus.
Instead of regulation tactics arms,
corrective classes in posture are be
ing conducted, with the purpose of
aiding the girlr to develope proper,
normal bodies. In this way, it is
that the dress forms to be pio-
kluced next fall shall be less defective

minutes when Glenn Presnell, stellar Husker halfback, skirted
left end for six yards and crossed the goal line. Dan McMullen
kicked goal for the extra point. Another counter was collected

tried twenty-eight passes and com
pleted eleven of them. Long hurls
as far as seventy yards were thrown
by the flashy back. The Orange
aerial attack worked during the
