Have Trouble Identifying
Classification of the moropus
was hindered for a long time, ac
cording to Mr. Colbert, because of
the queer combination of claws and
grinding teeth. Although tbe bones
of head and feet were often found
together, scientists thought they
belonged to two different animals.
It was not until the excavations
of the bones in Siour county, with
the bones in exact position of life,
that it became clear that the mor
opus bad characteristics of two dif
ferent classes of animals. The mor
opus lived In the geological period
known as the mlocene. It will be
placed in the Sioux county case be

Burnett Backs Legislative
Plan of Investigation
At University
TRUST INFLUENCE CITED
Chancellor E. A. Burnett favors
Um investigation -of .the- University
of Nebraska for possible power
trust Influence, according to a
statement he has made. Material
regarding the presence of power
trusts In American educational in
stitutions was brought up in the
United States senate by Horace
Davis, and the Nebraska legisla
ture has appointed a committee of
three to investigate conditions.
Senator J. C. McGowan of Madi
son presented a joint resolution to
the legislature Wednesday, calling
for Investigation. Two phases of
possible power trust influence
were cited in tbe discussion. The
first concerned the stand taken by
members of tbe department of poll'
tlcal science In regard to the city
manager plan of municipal govern
ment, and the second, concerned
the presence of power trusts In
connection with university beat
and lighting departments.
Members of the Investigating
committee are McGowan of Madi
son, Jeary of Lancaster, and Frush
of Saunders county. Considerable
discussion has gone on in the legis
lature in connection with McGow
an's Joint resolution. Many favor
the Investigation in order that the
presence of such Influence may be
determined If it Is present, and
that the name of tbe University of
Nebraska may be vindicated If it
is not found.

Drama Staged
At Armory Is
Second Event
While readers of various courses
were wearily perusing their formid
able stacks of examination papers
and the professors were gloating
over victories In their recent two
hour encounters, a biyearly produc
tion was taking place in the Arm
ory. It was a unique play, pre
sented to no audience in particu
lar. Tbe cast was mixed and was
drawn from the entire student
body. The theme of tbe occasion
was Payment of Fees.
From the hard, impartial door
keeper to the man who validated
the identification cards, tbe stage
was set for comedy, romance, ad
venture and tragedy. Judging from
the number of Home Economic
courses subscribed to, there will be
a few girls who will leam to cook
other than by watching the chef In
an All-in-One restaurant.
Class Schedules Arranged
"What will be more rare than a
day In June?" coeded a Nebraska
sweetheart as she evaluated the
convenience of her class schedule
and thought of the one and two
o'clocks and nunshlne.
"Well just look at this schedule
ail revised! Why there is not a
class like I had arranged. I Just
will not go to school with that
eight o'clock etc." Her companion
of like gender exploded and then
losing momentum, her resolution
died away into a whimpering and
she accepted the schedule as it
was. Her eye was caught by a lad
across the table and the romance
of the play began.
Assignment Table is Next
It was a big adventure to attempt
to get by the girl checking over
the assignment cards. She had an
eye that "bore malice towards none
bat correctness towards all." There
was many a chagrined senior who
was turned away with her orders
to follow Instructions and fill out
that card for the Dean of Women.
It was behind the huge partition
that the scene was laid for tragedy.
A new technique in addition was
Introduced as the girl hastily had
scanned the list of courses and
pronounced totals that staggered
the student, sending him in a daze
to the counter where he wrote out
the amount on dad. His mouth
drooped and he had lost his confi
dent bearing In the ordeal, but with
a buoyant nature, he seen it alL
The wise cracks on the door did
the trick. "Christmas comes bat
once a year, and payment of fees
but twice, so why worry?"

Rose Reynolds, '29, Lincoln,

Nebraska Art Association. Tbe
cash award of $25 was con

"As the greatest edition of our
English and Scottish ballads is the
work of an American, so now an
other American, Dr. L. C. Wlm

Child's work by producing an ex

'Folklore in the English and Scot

the matter of our ballad poetry,
and this volume (for we are hap

the ballad ideas of religion and

as superstition.

Against the Cyclones in
Husker Victory
In preparation for a strenuous
game with the Kansas Jayhawks
next Thursday in Lawrence, the
Varsity squad last night held a long
scrimmage session with the freshmen-
Coach Charlie Black changed
his Cornhusker plan of attack last
night by shifting Olson, stellar
guard, to a forward position for the
time.
After administering a 45 to 39 de
feat to the Iowa State team last
Saturday, thereby putting them
selves In a tie for third place, the
Scarlet, and Cream warriors will
have a hard fight to beat the Jay
hawks Thursday night and remain
in the upper division.
Beat Cyclones in Fast Game
The game last Saturday, although
won by a comfortable margin oi
points, was exciting and was close
throughout most of the fray. Mao
lay and LewandowskI were the
shining lights. "Mac" with his splen
did performance at center linked
with his eye for the hoop, and Lew
andowski's ability as a fast back
court man.
Since the opening of the court
season it has been evident that Ne
braska has one of the best combina
tions of men in the conference. In
dividually. In order to further
strengthen the line-up and give Ne
braska the punch that will defeat
Missouri and Oklahoma, Coach
Black has done a bit of re-vamplng
in the team. Witte, a veteran for
ward in th.p Cornhusker attack has
been shifted temporarily to guard
position, but his able performance
In the Iowa State conflict may keep
him permanently In the back court
