Weesner Talks lo Girls
Commercial Club Meet
Opportunities for women in de

Miss Marie Weesner at a luncheon
of the Girls Commercial club
Thursday noon at the chamber of
commerce.
Although most buyers are wom
en, very few merchandise manag
ers are though there is no reason
why they shouldn't be, according
to Miss Weesner. Girls who begin
as saleswomen have excellent
chances to work up to positions as
stylists, commercial artists, card
writers, advertising copy writers,
and personal shoppers.
"College graduates enter the
store on the same basis as grad
uates from high school or even
grade school," stated Miss Wees
ner. Their training and background
enable them to advance much
faster than the others, however.

Burnett Tells Woman's
Club of School Needs
Tbat adequate financial sunnort
Is necessary to the welfare of the
University if it is to have a com

equipment was stressed by Chanc-
eller E. A. Burnett before a meet
ing of the Woman's club circle
Thursday morning.
The University is judged by the
quality and teaching power of the
faculty. Inspirations to the stu
dents, leadership of the alumni,
and the confidence of the public in
the institution, according to
Chancellor Burnett. Outstanding
educators and an adequate physical
plant requires an adequate money
supply.
In an effort to cope with the de
linquency problem of the new stu
dent, a tutorial system Is to be em
ployed in the near future. This
factor will probably give them a
better basis on which to continue
their studies, Cnancellor Burnett
believes.

Following the resignation of
Earnest E. llearg as Nebraska foot
ball mentor, sports writers of the
various papers in the state have
taken it upon their shoulders to
prognosticate the appointment of
Nebraska's next football coach.
Great and near-great football
coaches from all over the United
States have been mentioned as pos
sible head pigskin tutors.
The Omaha World Herald has as
its possible candidates W. Harold
Brown, coach of the Lincoln High
aggregation, Paul Schissler of the
Oregon Aggies, Harry Stuhldreher,
formerly one of Notre Dame's fa
mous Four Hordsemen, Charley
Bachman of Florida, Chick Mee

BIG SIXlYllAW
Decrease in Gate Receipts
Is Given as Reason for
Proposed Ruling
When the athletic directors of
the Big Six conference meet in
Kansas City this week end several
questions concerning football will
be discussed. Broadcasting of foot
ball games in the future and fresh
man football competition will form
the backbone of the arguments by
the physical directors.
Decrease in the amount of gate
receipts is the reason for the idea
of discontinuing the broadcasting
of games. Some of the directors be
lieve that broadcasting the games
cuts down materially on attend
ance. Others think that attendance
Is aided, since It increases interest
in the sport.
Gish Remains Silent.
Director of athletics Herbert
Gish has not announced his views
on these subjects, although he will
take part In the discussions to be
held in Kansas City. It is a ques
tion whether Nebraska gate re
ceipts are affected in any great ex
tent due to radio broadcasting of
the plays.
Other things to be discussed at
the meeting are football, baseball,
and track schedules for 1929 and
any changes in the schedules.
Some of the new basketball rules
will also be interpreted.
Sixty Freshmen Are Out
For Basketball at K. U.
Sixty freshmen at the Univer
sity of Kansas appeared for the
first basketball practice, and 120
are expected soon by Coach John
Burn. After all candidates have
been given a try-out, the squad
will be cut to about forty.
This squad will be divided into
five teania, and a freshman tour
nament will be played.
Plans are being made also to
give prizes for the three best In a
free throwing contest, for 1000
baskets.
