it is going to be a fast exhibition of
basketball and those who have been
going to the Coliseum just for the
ride are going to get more than they
bargained for in the way of basketball.
Coach Lawrence "Jap" Haskell of
the University of Oklahoma baseball
team will start rounding up hi horse
bide, twirler for the opening of the
eaion on the Missouri Valley dia
monds. Sorry 'tis that the Cwnhue
ker school won't be represented on
the diamond this season but followers
of the great American pastime will
hare to be contented until next
year.
Next spring, Nebraska will be the
scene of the first baseball practice
the Cornhusker school has expe
rienced) for many years. The dia
mond will, in all probability, be lo
cated some place west of the Col
iseum but plans hare not taken a
definite form as yet.
The Sooner sandlotters will play
a total of IS games in the Missouri
Valley this spring. Some schedule
is what we say. Eighteen games in
the short season that baseball exists
in college is a' real outlay. This is
"Jap" Haskell's first year with the
baseball team and this column knows
him as a coach of real calibre.
Kansas Aggie school is still with
out a football mentor for next sea
son. The athletic board at the Man
hattan school has offered the job to
"Bo" McMillan and as yet the for
mer Centre star has not accepted.
The Aggie officials feel confident
that McMillan will take the offer and
pilot the Purple squad next year.
McMillan's contract at Geneva Col
lege has not run its length but he
feels certain that it could be fixed
so he could accept the Aggie offer.
Nebraska entertains royalty in the

Fans will remember bast year when
Ted Pasre and the tall Oklahoman

Full Dress Suits Take
Place of Dinner Jacket
New York City, Feb. 22. (Fair
child News Service) An increase in
the number of students at Eastern
and Big Ten universities who wear
evening dress, in preference to the
dinner jacket or tuxedo, at dances
and formal evening affairs, has been
noted by the style observers of the
Fairchild Publications.
These experts do not predict aban
donment of the dinner jacket, but
consider the fact that undergradu
ates have in so many cases taken up
the extreme of formality in evening
dress to indicate a general increase
in attention to niceties of dress on
the part of the American student.
Since the two-button jacket is al
ready familiar to style leaders and
many colleges and universities, of
varying size, and in different parts of
the country, style authorities are in
clined to believe that an ever newer
idea, the strictly English jacket, will
bo brought in by the student fashion
leaders.
This jacket, accompanied by high-
waisted trousers and a closely-fitted
waist-coat, is made single-breasted,
with three buttons, the middle button
worn fastened if desired.
The lapels are peaked, in the shape
known to tailers as "the double-
breasted lapel," and the jacket fits
rather snugly at the waist. Materials
used for this sort of suit include the
various tweed fabrics as well as blue
serge, "bird's-eye" or finely checked
worsteds, and dark worsteds carrying
faint stripes.
This kind of suit, with the trousers
cut full at the knee but narrow at
the bottom, and swinging freei of the
shoetops, is of course, out of the
present tradition of university dress,
and requires a greater nicety in thr
fit of shirt and collar than most stu
dents now care to affect.
On the other hand, the tremendous
increase in European travel by un
dergraduates on vacation, and the
influence of English tailors on these
young men, will be a strong factor in
establishing this kind of suit, at pres
ent the most advanced university
style and seen in appreciable num
bers only in tho East. j
Achievements
In Engineering
Are Romantic
Vermillion, S. D., Feb. 22. That
engineers are the "doers" of thei age
was the opinion of R. V. Newcomb,
professor of mechanical engineering
at the University of South Dakota,
in a recent speech broadcast over
radio station KUSD, giving advice to
high school students in the matter
of selecting a field of life work.
Mr. Newcomb .described many con
quests of engineering as romantic
achievements, and advised the young
high school student ot be certain that
he is interested in the designing and
creation of things before he makes
up his mind to enter the engineering
profession. The prospective engin
eer must not only have the desire to
take up engineering work, but he
must demonstrate genuine aptitude
and ability, the speaker said.
Lists Requirements
The reauirements for a successful
engineer as listed are: the ability to
think clearly, the understanding of
economy, an attitude of persistence
and the habit of systematic research.
Mr. Newcomb advised the high school
student planning on taking up en
srineering to prepare for his college
work by taking all the English,
grammar, argumentation, debating,
and the writing of essays that he
possibly can.
"One of the greatest handicaps
that an engineer can possibly have
today is a poor command of the
English language," said Mr. New
comb. Next in importance to the
study of English, said the speaker,
is the study of mathematics.
Radiophone Penetrates
Arctic Circle First Time
Ann Arbor, Mich. (IP) Radio
phone communication between Man
chester, Conn, and the University
of Michigan weather station in south
west Greenland, on Mt. Evans, was
established last Sunday evening, ac
cording to the Michigan Daily, which
reports that this is the first time the
radiophone has penetrated the arctic
circle. v i
This successful experiment was
conducted at the home of John L.
Reinartz. inventor of the Reinartz
receiving circuit, former radio oper
ator for McMillan on the Bowdom.
and designer of the set which is being
used at the Mt. Evans station.
To bridge the 3,500 miles between
Manchester and Mt. Evans, Reinartz
used a radiophone transmitter of his
own construction, broadcasting on a
14-meter wave length.
Professor Hobbs has been direct
ing the activities of the expedition
daily from the campus through the
local short-wave station of the R. 0.
T. C, but the experiment last Sunday
marks the first attempt to communi
cate by phone. .
Messages have been received and
transmitted here practically daily
since December 21, the only notable
interruption occurring on January
16, when a terrific wind storm with
a velocitty of 120 miles per hour,
blew down the aerial on top of the
Mt. Evans station.

Students Are Warned
Against Agency Jobs
Columbus, Ohio (IP) President
Rightmire, of Ohio State university,
has issued a warning to students to
consider from all angles any summer
agency jobs offered them this spring.
Many of the jobs offered are worse
than no job at all, he says.
Ann Arbor, Mich. . (IP) Students
graduating from high school no
longer will be allowed to enter any
of the professional schools at the
University of Michigan until they
have had at least two years of pre
paratory college work, according to
action which is to be taken by the
faculty and regents of the University.
The new ruling will create a uni
versity College, in which aspiring
liberal arts, medical, law, or engin
eering students must take at least
two years before entering the regular
colleges. The ruling changes the
college of Literature, Science and
Arts to the status of a professional
school so that it will fall under the
proper category-
The ruling does not change the
entrance requirements of the medi
cal and law Bchools, however, for at
present an A. B. degree is required
for entrance to them.
South Dakota Senior
Wondtrt Why Cart Run
Smoother at Sundown
Vermillion, S. D., Feb. 22. When
the good little "Spit-fire Six" after
a hard days run over miles and miles
of hot, dusty, road suddenly, just as
the sun sets, lays back her ears and
purrs along swiftly and smoothly the
average motorist welcomes the
change without question.
Adolph Braun, of Hudson, senior
student in engineering at the Uni
versity of South Dakota refused to
take it so unquestioningly, he wants
to know why. As a result of Mr.
Braun's refusal to accept things as
they come he 1s taking advantage of
the shop facilities in his course in
engineering at the University, and is
making careful tests with a passenger
car motor.
It is common knowledge, said Mr.
Braun, .that the increased efficiency
of automobile motors just after sun
set is caused by the saturation of the
air with moisture. Just before tne
dew-point is reached the atmosphere
is saturated with very fine particles
of moisture, says Mr. Braun.
The tests which Mr. Braun is con
ducting in the engineering ehops of
the University are in the attempt to
duplicate the after-sunset effect by
mechanical means. Exact measure
ment of speed, load, moisture in the
intake, temperature, and amounts of
gasoline used in the experiments, it
is hoped, will show just what condi
tion and just what amount of moist
ure will produce the best effect.

ROBB READS PAPER TO
NEBRASKA RETAILERS
Prof. T. Bruce Robb, chairman of
the department of statistics and busi
ness research in the College of Busi
ness Administration, attended the
annual meeting of Nebraska retailers
in Omaha February 15 and 16. He
read a paper on "Operating Expenses
of the Grocery Store."
Princeton, N. J. (IP) While
standing in Madison Square Garden,
"Tex" Rickard, world famous sports
promoter, recently told a Princeton
ian interviewer that the colleges con
tribute more men to the boxing game
than any other field of professional
athletics.
"It is rather difficult," said Mr.
Rickard, "to think of the colleges as
a steady source for professional ath
letes. For usually the men who have
become famous in intercollegiate
competition start in on big jobs im
mediately after graduation, or are
situated so well from a monetary
point of view that there is no finan
cial attraction for them in a profes
sional career. In this way some of
the best athletes in the country are
lost to the world of professional
sport."
Mr. Rickard mentioned several col
lege men who had taken up profes
sional boxing with more or less suc
cess, among them Monty Munn, of
the University of Nebraska and Sully
Montgomery of Centre College, who
suffered a knock-out in 20 seconds at
the hands of Jack Delaney.
