10,000 GIFT
10 UNI
Long-Time Benefactor Pre
sents Institution With
Liberal Sum
DONATED FOR MUSEUM
His Latest Endowment Will
Bring Total to $100,
000 Mark
Charles H. Morrill, long-time
friend and benefactor of the Uni
versity of Nebraska, has just pre
sented the Institution with another
$10,000 to be expended In procuring
material for the state museum, ac
cording to an announcement made
Saturday by the University.
A few days ago Mr. Morrill
called Chancellor K. A. Burnett;
Chancellor-Kmeritua S. Avery;
L. E. Gunderson, finance secretary;
and Dr. E. H. Harbour, director of
the museum, to his home at
Stromsburg and presented them
with the gift.
This will bring Mr. Morrill's to
tal benefactions to the University
of Nebraska to the $100,000 mark.
It has repeatedly elecited com
ment that a farmer living in Polk
county, Nebraska, should have left
an impress on education and on fos
sil research to such an extent that
Dr. Henry Fairfield Osborn, the
foremost palaeontologist, named a
distinct group of fossil elephants in
recognition of Mr. Morrill and the
service he has rendered to science.
Encourages Research
By encouraging geological re
search for a long period or years
Mr. Morrill haa seen to it that Ne
braska is now possessed of a large,
diversified, and valuable collection
of its fossil animals and plants. Its
collections of fossil elephants In
Morrill Hall at the University
promises soon to become the larg
est in the world.
The Morrill collections have al
ready attracted scientists from va
rious states and rrom many foreign
countries, and figures of its speci
ments, many of them unique, have
been reproduced in text books and
other publications.
It was Mr. Morrill, who 35 years
ago, began lo supply the Univer
sity with funds for geological expe
ditions into the Bad Lands of Ne
braska, thereby saving for this
state many of the most famous pre
historic animals exhibited any
where. In those days money was
not plentiful and had It not been
for the financial support of Mr.
Morrill, many of the finest speci
mens would have found their way
Into eastern and foreign museums.
For more than a third of a cen
tury Mr. Morrill has been a steady
and constant friend of the Univer
sity, and Is today probably its most
outstanding benefactor.
Museum Is Outstanding
From the standpoint of the gen
eral public, the University museum
in Morrill Hall is perhaps the most
Interesting building on the campus.
Thousands of people visit it yearly.
From a purely financial point of
view, according to Chancellor Bur
nett, who announced this latest
gift Saturday, the Morrill geolog
ical collections at the University
are considered so valuable that If
they could be put on the market
and converted into cash, they
would bring many times what has
been spent on them. For Instance,
he pointed out, the skeleton of
dinohyus, a giant prehistoric hog,
Is valued by another institution at
$50,000. Only two skeletons of dlno
hyrus are known to be in existence.
Skeletons of moropus, rhinoceros
and'others all have a market value
and the University Is possessed of
many such.
Just what the great elephant col
lection is worth, no one will hazard
a guess. Probably the entire col
lections of prehistoric animals
would be worth several hundred
thousand dollars.
The career of Mr. Morrill has
been quite as romantic as the story
of his Interest in palaeontology. He
came to Nebraska with meager re
sources In 1871 arid homesteaded lu
Polk county, his origlual claim be
ing part of tho town of Strom
burg. Later he became associated
with the land departments of the
Burlington railroad. In 1879 he was
secretary to Governor Nance. In
18S3 he was elected regent of the
University, and In 1892 president of
the board, a position which he held
for ten years.
A few years ago he was awarded
the dlstlnguli-hed service medal of
the Lincoln Klwanls Club.

Convention Delegate
At a meeting of Alpha Delta
Sigma, last week, Elton J. Fee
was selected to represent the
Nebraska chapter at the na
tional convention at Champaign,
III. The convention, among
othpr things, will discuss adver

campuses, and Mr. Fee will
bring back new ideas to the lo

This is the first convention
th.it a Nebraska delegate has attended.
Tests Fail to
Solve Milady's
Diet Problems
Do fat women have to stay fat
and thin women stay thin? In her
endeuvor to find an answer to this
question. Miss Rebekah Gibbons,
head of the division of Foods and
Nutrition of the Department of
Home Economics of the University
spent the summer at the University
of Chicago, continuing the research
work which she started at the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
She worked with greyhounds as
an example of hereditary thinness
and with other dogs which appar
ently had a tendency toward fat
ness, studying to see whether the
waste heat caused by eating food
was greater In ihe greyhounds. If
so, that might be one of the rea
sons for their thinness.
Tests did not seem to show any
difference in the amount of waste
heat, so it seems the ladles will
have to turn to other sources for
aid in the solution of the dietary
problems.
APPEAR ON BALLOTS
Students Will Have Chance
To State Presidential
Preference
WILL PUBLISH RETURNS
Names of Herbert Hoover and
Alfred E. Smith, republican and
democratic candidates for presi
dent respectively, will go on a spe
cial ballot for the fall campus elec
tion, Tuesday, October 9. All stu
dents visiting the polls that day
will be given a ballot on which to
name their presidential choice.
This Is the result of plan devised
by the Student Council and with
the cooperation of The Dally Ne
braskan. Larger universities all over the
country have been conducting
straw votes throughout the past
month. Proximity of the coming
presidential election and clarity of
the campaign issues have afforded
an opportunity for University of
Nebraska students to cast ballots
for president.
Will Show Presidential Leanings.
While a straw vote, and taken as
all straw votes are, this election
should determine with a reasonable
degree of accuracy, at least a trend
of student presidential choice.
With hundreds of students, repre
senting all four classes, going to
the polls Tuesday the result might
be taken as a cross-section view
of student opinion at Nebraska in
a great election year.
This plan of having the names of
Hoover and Smith on a ballot has
been approved by members of tho
Student Council and will be con
ducted by the council with the co
operation of The Daily Nebraskan.
Counting of the votes for Hoover
and Smith only will be done by
The Dnily Nebraskan and the re
sults will be published In the Wed
nesday morning edition of the
paper.

REGENTS STRESS
NEED OF LARGER
Higher Costs and Increased
Enrollment Make More
Funds Necessary
MAKE FORMAL REQUEST
Letter to Governor Gives
Details of Proposed
Expenditures
Additional funds for buildings
and Increased salaries for mem
bers of the faculty are asked in
the formal recommendation for ap
propriations for the University of
Nebraska for the next blennlum
which has been presented to Gov
ernor Adam McMullen by Chan
cellor E. A. Burnett and Finance
Secretary L. E. Gunderson of the
University. The requested appro
priation, signed by II. D. Landls,
Seward, president of the board of
regents, Is $5,763,241.96.
Two very definite reasons are
set forth for the increase asked.
The general upward tendency of
costs as compared with the pre
war period is given as the first
reason for the increase, and the
rapid growth in enrollment Is the
second.
The largest Increase over the
past blennlum sum of $4,147,000 Is
In capital improvements. Included
in the $800,000 increase will be an
additional nurses' home at Omaha,
an engineering building on the
central campus, dormitories on the
central campus, and a combined
home economics and commons
building at the College of Agri
culture. Letter to Governor
Following Is the text, in part, of
the letter to the governor:
The regents of the university submit
horewith recommendations for appro
priations covering the blennium begin
ning" July 1. We trust you will
see your way clear to approve these In
full and recommend them to the state
legislature.
The arRuments In favor of these
larger appropriations Hre convincing
and conclusive if one studies the his
tory and growth of the university dur
ing the last fifteen years and especi
ally since the close of the World war
in 1918.
The second reason for asking the
very moderate increase as listed above
.is the growth in enrollment at our
institution. Our attendance has been
increasing in exceaa at our-resource
for several yearn.
Of the additional $600,000 asked for
the university fund, $333,250 will be
devoted to salaries and S2t6.7f0 to
maintenance. More money for salaries
is necessary for two reasons: 1
The great Increase In enrollment nat
urally demands a larger teaching
staff. (J) In very many casea we are
unable to meet the competition from
other institutions in holding our fac
ulty. Richer universities are continually
tujfing our well known prefssors at
decided Increases In salary. Unless we
can meet some of these opportunities
by larger salaries here we shall con
tinue to lose such professors at an
alarming rate.
During the years 1325-26, 1M6-27.
1S27-25, and 102S-2:i. we have lost by
resignation seventeen full prof'-ssois.
nlno aS(Klaie profeasors, thirteen as
sistant professors, and eighty-five In
structors, making a total of 124, or an
ave-age of over thirty eaeh year dur
ing this period. Most of this loss could
have been avoiued by an adequate
salary rate.
it will be interesting to list here tho
names of some of the prcjlest-ord who

12T0 0 VICTORY
AT IOWA STATE
First Half of Battle Is Hard
Fought, Nebraska Making
Only Six Points
BACKFIELD GOES STRONG

By Jack Elliott.
STATE FIELD, Ames, Iowa, Oct.
6. (Special to The Dally Nebras
kan) Nebraska's 1928 Cornhusker
football team opened the gridiron
season in the Big Six conference
with a 12 .o 0 victory over the
Iowa State Cyclone team. The
first half of the battle was hard
fought, the Nebraska eleven end
ing the first half with a 6 to u
edge on the Ames crew, and they
were well earned as the Cyclones
were putting up a dazzling air
game with Trauger, Cyclone half
back, doing all the hurling.
The Cornhuskers first tally came
early in the first quarter when
Clair Sloan, Husker halfback,
plunged over the line for the re
maining four yards and a touch
down. Howell running the Interfer
ence for Sloan cleared the path
for the first Husker touchdown of
the season. From then on until the
end of the half the battle raged
with both sides evenly matched,
Iowa State getting the edge in the
second quarter.
Cyclone Passing Is Dangerous.

was baffling to the Nebraskans and
numerous short flips fell Into the
arms of Iowa State ends and backs.
Opening the second half with a
new backfield combination, the
Huskers started on their march for
the second touchdown of the day.
Witte and McBride, the old Lin
coln high combination were work
ing at the two halfback posts and
were doing considerable damage In
the line of gains for the big red
team from Lincoln.
Soon after the second stanza had
opened "Reb" Russell. Cornhusker
pilot, plunged over the line for a
touchdown but the officials called
the play back and gave the ball to
Ames on the 20-yard line.
Near the close of the third quar
ter, Lewandowskl, sophomoro end
took the pigskin around the wins;
on a combination end play, making
18 yards on the play. This sensa
tional run put the Nebraska eleven
within scoring distance of the goal
line.
Howell Makes Touchdown
Howell took the ball on the next
play and crossed the line for the
second Husker touchdown. Tho
Husker Co-Captain attempted to
kick goal but the Ball went wib'.
The work of Russell, Wltte, i:hi'
Howell and Farley was outstanding
In the Husker backfield, while the
Nebraska forward wall showed
many weaknesses, the work of Ted
.lames at eenter, Raymond Richard
and McMullen .as outstanding
Nebraska lost the toss at tlin
op"ning of the season's first gaum

yard line to Peterson who rmi'ie im
