IS'oon Is Deadline for
Interfraternily Lists
All entries In the lutei -fraternity
boxing tournament must
be in the atliletic office by
noon today, according to It. F.
VoReler, who Is In charge of
the tournament. Each organi
zation must enter at least three
men in order to receive en
trance points. If a bout Is for
feited entrance points are lost.
As the class A Interfraiernity
basketball tournament enters an
other week of play, the leaders in
each league are more or less cer
tainly determined. In four of the
five leagues, there is but one uiv
defeated quintet each. In the re
maining league, there, are but two
teams with clean slates, and one
of these Is due for a blot when the
two teams, Farm House and Kap
pa Sigma, meet Wednesday night
on the Coliseum floor.
PI Kappa Alpha has won five
, games in league one, and nothing
but the unusual can topple that
team from Its position. Phi Sigma
Kappa has been having an easy
time with its opponents In league
two. The Phi Sigs, runnersup in
the tournament last year, and the
winners the year before, show
strong indications of repeating pre
vious performances.
Phi Gams Lead League
Phi Gamma Delta disposed of the
toughest threat to supremacy in
league three when It beat Delta
Sigma Phi.
Farm House with five victories,
and Kappa Sigma with four, are
tied for leadership in league four.
The tie la scheduled for settlement
Wednesday night. Alpha Sigma
Phi la finding the coir"lon In
the fifth division comparatively
easy, and seems to be lined up for
league honors there.
At the conclusion of play In the
fire leagues, the winners In each
division will be matched in a round
robin schedule to determine the in

instead of from the top. This
causes the volatile gases to be
burned berore they are carried off,
thus reducing the amount of smoke.
When the coal reaches the end of
the slope It has been transformed
Into ash and clinkers. They are
dumped out Butomatlcal'v.
In a representative winter month,
like December, 870,000 gallons of
water are used for general pur
poses in' the heating plant. Only
about seven to eight per cent oi
this is used to replenish the supply
which circulates through the steam
pipes over the campus.
The water, as it enters the boil
ers, is turned Into steam, and is
carried to the various buildings, is
condensed, and as water again it la
returned to the boilers.
When the water is received at
the supply tank it has a tempera
ture of from 110 to 120 degrees. It
is then passed through a steam fur
nace where it Is raised to about
2.".0 degrees. At this temperature
it is again passed into the boilers
and circulated through the campus
Steam from the boiiers is also
the source of power for the various
water pumps, the draft fan, and
the stokers, as well as for the gen
eration of the electricity used on
the campus.
seventeen men, in all, are re
quired to look after this business
of keeping the university warm.
Nine men are employed for firing
and coal handling, three take care
of the engine room where the elec
tricity is generated, two look after
plant and siearu tunnel mainte
nance, one night heat man inspects
radiators in cold weather. Mr.
Small is assisted In the manage
ment, by E. S. Place.

BIBLE IS GUEST
OF BUSINESS MEN
Coach D. X. Bible was introduced
to Lincoln business men Tuesday
noon at a luncheon given at the
Chamber of Commerce, honoring
Nebraska's new football mentor,
Ray Ramsay acter as master of
ceremonies for the occasion.
The need of the support of the
business men as well as that of the
student body was stressed by
Coach Bible In bis talk to the body.
He said that he was clipping all of
the nice things said to show people
in the middle of the football sea
son. The active support of the busi
ness men of Lincoln was pledged
by Frank D. Eager and Roy Wyth-
ers, presidents of the senior and
junior chambers. A chorus of Del
ta Gamma girls gave a football
skit and an orchestra played dur
ing the luncheon.
FIFTY-FIVE TONS OF
COAL USED MONDAY
Centlnaed from rage 1.
able. Mr. Place points out a thing
which 1s much like a mirror in
shape, having a blue glass in it.
"Show 'em your Are, Joe," he says,
and the observer stoops down with
a complacent manner as Are is
nothing new preparing to look
through the door.
The door is opened. Quickly one
places the blue glass before the
eye. They bad felt as though they
were burning. The clothing steams.
One's hands are roasting. "Stand
back there," someone says. "It
won't be so Intense." One complies
quite agreeable. What a Are!
Another boiler next to this is
"dead" o that it ran be looked
Into. But. first, an examination of
lh stoker might be well. It is
railed a Wesilnghousn Underfeed
Stoker. Numerous levers, wheels,
and Joints are seen. They soon be
rome an ordered stoker not a
muz- of steel as Mr. Dace pro
reeds to explain its operation.
There are several pistons and a
crankshaft which look like those
on a large gasoline engine. These
are the instruments which force
the coal into the boilers, from the
hoppers.
Now glimpse Inside. There are
ridges and valleys on a plane which
slopes toward the end of the fire
box. The ridges are called "tuyer
blocks" on each of which there are
numerous small ridges running
cross-wise with a blunt, steep side
facing downward toward the ash
pit Numerous holes are visible on
this aide of the smaller ridges. The
draft la blown. The air la forced
through by a large fan which ia
automatic.
Coil Runs Down Groves
The coal runs down movable
groves connected with the stoker.
CAGE SEASON OPENS
FOR CLASS COMPET
Co-Eds Start Preliminary
Practice for Court
Championship
Preliminary basketball practice
for girls was started yesterday and
win continue until after exams.
This practice is preparatory to the
annual Co-ed, intra-mural basket
ball tournament held from Feb. 5
to March 5, and also to the class
tournament held later in the sea
son.
Twenty teams have entered and
assurance of competition has been
forecast and enough interest should
be shown to keep the practice ses-
sions going. Winners of the tourna
ment receive 100 points toward the
Intra-mural championship. Fifty
points are given each group for
every team entered. Many groups
have entered two teams.
The purpose of the pre-season
activity is to afford the officials the
chance of getting a line on pros
pects for the class teams. These
teams are selected only from mem
bers of intra-mural teams, hence
anyone not registering for intra
mural practice is not eligible for
their respective class team. Any
one who has not registered but who
desires to do so may see Miss Rob
bins or inquire at the women's
gymnasium at S o'clock Tuesday.
Eight Seniors May Get
Cornhusker Pictures
Eight more seniors may have
their pictures taken for the se
nior section of the 1929 Corn
husker, according to William
Manner, Jr., editor. Seniors
who wish to have their pictures
taken . must report to Town
send'8 studio before Wednesday
night. The first eight to report
will get their pictures in the se
nior section of the Cornhusker.
legs and arms in their study of the
muscles, arteries and nerves. The
heads are to be used later by den
tal students. There are Mow about
twenty In the physical education
class and thirty dental students.
The Anotomy department also
has a number of embryological ex
hibits which are Interesting.
Tonight Nebraska's basketeera
take on South Dakota for the first
basketball game of the week. The
South Dakota five is the second
quintet from that state to appear
before Nebraska fans this winter.
South Dakota State fell before the
Huskers in the season opener be
fore the holidays. Then Saturday
Charley Black's Scarlet basket toae
ers take on the fast Allen crew
from down on the Kaw. The Jay-
hawkers surprised critics in the
conference by offering the Okla
homa Sooners a run for the!
money In the conference opener
down at Lawrence Saturday. The
Jayhawkera will be plenty tough
for the Husker five and with
Thompson and Cox hitting the rim
as they have been during the tea
son, the Nebraska guards will have
a large evening covering these two

have been granted by the univer
slty in its history, that the Univer
sity of Nebraska according to full
time enrollment ranks thirteenth
among the universities of the
country or that athletics are en
tirely self-supporting.
Many people do not know thai
the university has such Jurisdiction
over fraternities and sororities ar
It has over the student body gen
erally, in regard to conduct of mem
bers, that 46 per cent of the men
and 35 per cent of the women stu
dents attending university the flrat
semester 1927-28 were enrolled in
fraternities and sororities, that dur
ing the past five years in the uni
versity, using an average of 6,000
full-time enrollment, only about 5
per cent each year have been
forced to leave school by poor
scholarship.
As far as we could see there was
nothing particularly wrong with the
Scarlet against Missouri last Satur
day except that Nebraska lacked a
Welsh. The floor work of the IIus
ker team wss fairly well perfected
although the guard work was no
ticeably weak. Carl Olson surprised
Husker fans with his dazzling
speed and floor work against the
Tigers and only lacked a running
mate that, could play the same
brand of fast ball that he did. With
only one guard a basketball fiv
can not expect to vstop men like
Harry Welsh, Tiger sharpshooter.
The center position, which for the
past years has been weak, seema
to remain in the same undaunted
position. Since the day of Ted Page,
the Huskers have been unable to
locate a man with speed, basket eye
and a tall frame. Although Huhm
was quite a surprise at center,
"Red" Baker came In to perform
very admirably for the Tiger five.
Morris Fisher and Harv Grace,
the two Husker forwards, found
Waldorf, the Tiger guard, a hard
man to deal with and the Miasourl
guard combination held the Huaker
forwards to a pair of counters
each. Fisher, a sop he nore, looka
plenty fast on the Huaker five and
haa team-matea that can keep up
with him, in Harvey Grace or
"Dutch" Witta. The Nebraska for
warda will find Cox of Kanaaa a
dead eye on the baaket. To allow
him a time ahot meana two scores

A number of cadavers preserved

the laboratory use in the anatomy
department. These are bodies of
derelicts, paupers, criminals, or
other unclaimed bodies of both
white persons and negroes. They
are of various sizes but. the medium
sized body is the best for labora
tory work according to Dr. T. An
derson, head of the department.
Upon first entry into the labora

nine human bodies partly wrapped

Hayes Reada Book
C. D. Hayes, general secretary
of the university Y. M. C. A., led
the discussion which was taken
from the first two chapters of the
book, "Christ at the Round Table
by E. Stanley Jones. This turned
upon the statements made In the
discussions by men of various rell
pious faiths, which had to do wltb
their own experiences. The Hin
dus and Mohammadans present
seemed greatly impressed with the
Joy and peace that had come to
the Christians and not to them.
according to Mr. Hayes.
Songs that were favorite at the
conference last year were sung
during the evening, and a light
informal lunch was served.
All students and faculty mem
bers who are Interested in attend
ing the conference are urged to be
present at these group meetings.
The next being held Sunday, Feb

Special Meeting Today
A. special. meeting of the Per

Five days have elapsed since the
department of military science sent
their challenge to the athletic de
partment questioning that staff's
ability and daring them to compete
in a polo game to be played on Kid
dle cars.
Various rules are to govern the
proposed contest to be plsved as
the feature event in the "N" club
Husker carnival to be held Jan. 25.
Their polo ponies are to be kiddie
cara . The mallets are to be on any
length under eight feet. The ball
wlii be no less than three Inches In
diameter or greater than fifteen
inches.
The military department pro
mised upon their honor no material
of an explosive nature would be
placed In the ball to be used in the
contest.
Both sides may wear any type of
uniform except that no plumes of
a length greater than three feet are
to be worn.
The members of the department
are to play personally and not draft
players for the game.
The members of the teams are to
be chosen In a very unique fashion.
The chiefs of the department of
military science are to choose their
opponents' team while the athletic
department will choose the competi
tors. "
Although no acceptance of the
challenge bas been received aa yet.
the military department Is expect
ing one soon and has been trying
to workout every day. Inclement
weather has been hindering the lim
bering of the horses. But still ac
cording to Captain Lehman, one of
the leaders of the military depart
ment riders, as much execrlse as
possible Is being given them in case
the challenge is accepted. Captain
Lehman also expects that the ath
letic department is working out sec
retly in the Coliseum or the sta
dium before accepting the chal
lenge. But in spite of $u1 conjectures the
fact remains that the honor of the
athletic department ia a stake. Whe
ther or not they will redeem then?
