Committee of Four Invited
To Make Survey of
True Conditions.
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 2.Y-The
rmnmittee of four invited by Pres
ident L. D. Coffman to make a
thoroughgoing survey of physical
education and athletics at the Unl
veristy of Minnesota and to lay
out a program to be followed for
the next ten years will come to
Minneapolis and get down to work
tin .Mar. 4, 5 and 6.
John Griffith, conference com
missioner of athletics, C. W. Sav
are. veteran athletic director at
Ooerlin college, and Pres. II. M.
(luge of Coe college, president of
the North Central Association of
Colleges, will be on the ground.
Orandlnnd Kice. New York sports
authority, has been in correspond
ence with university administrat
or: and has obtained a pretty
thorough Idea of the Minnesota
situation iu reply to a long series
ot" iiuestions he prepared. Press of
work will prevent Mr. Rice from
attending: the first conference, but
lie will como to the campus at a
Inter date.
No agenda will be handed to the
i tiinmittec on its arrival. J. O.
Lawrence, assistant to the presi
dent, said yesterday. Complete
factual data on the department of
physical education and athletics
has been prppared by Henry J.
otto, committee secretary, and is
being printed la a booklet for the
use of the committeemen.
To Make Report.
After they have conducted their
'.hiee day mf.eting tbey probably
will make a preliminary report,
after which a conference will be
held between university represent
atives and the special committee,
tind at this conference an outline
of their future undertakings will
be made.
The ground has been definitely
cleared for them by changes in the
athletic personnel that have taken
place since they were appointed.
The retirement of Mr. Luchring
from the athletic directorship, and
appointment of Herbert O. Cri.sler
as b.)th director and head coach of
football arc elements making the
field tn.jy are to till more readily
accessible.
At least Major Griffith, and
probably some other members of
the committee will remain In Min
neapolis until the week end to
watch the Western conference in
door intercollegiate track meet,
which . will be held in the Minne
sota field house on Friday and Sat
urday. Mar. 7 and 8. At that time
star track and field athletes from
all of the Big Ten universities will
compete. It will be the first con
ference track meet held at Minne
sota for many years.
'Believe It or Not'
Excusing Lone
What ho, fellow students! Hold
your sides while you read of the
strangest event in college. Prior
to this time it has always been the
consensus of opinion that the mili
tary department was invulnerable
and unmerciful, but at last an ex
cuse has been presented to them
which has defied their ability to
discredit.
It is probably not entirely the
fault of the department, for accus
tomed as they are to listening to
complaints about flat feet that are
not flat and heart troubles p:o
duced by intemperate consumption
of aspirins, they were not unreason
ably confounded when the novel

BIBLE GIVES SPEECH
Coach Claims Roosevelt Is
Savior of Modern
Football.
Coach Pana X. Bible. In a talk
with the Ad-Sell league at the
Fontcnclle hotel. Omaba. Iat Mon
day f vrnlng hailed President Rooa
fvrlt as the aavoir of modern foot
ball. Coach Klble spoke on the
subject "Intercollegiate Athletics."
hen the game of football waa
still considered "dangerous" state
legislatures were unfavorable to
the game and some schools con
templated Its abolition.
"Then President Roosevelt
railed a conference of .oaches.
college presidents, and players and
asked that rules and associations
be established," Bible said. "Today
we owe the preservation of the
game to him. He did more for
football than perhaps any other
man."
Football Advantages.
In pointing out the advantages
of football in college, Bible told
the league of its benefits as a
means of physical training, and
through i t s popularity among
fans, football provides all the nec
essary finances of the athletic de
partment at Nebraska.
Coach Bible voiced his opinion
as to the over centralization of
football and denounced rumors
that the game Is becoming profes
sionalized and over emphasized
when he said, "Under the soften
ing Influences about us, football Is
needed more than ever. Life Is
highly competitive, and there is no
better laboratory for learning how
to compete than on the football
field. Talk of professionalism in
the game la no cause for alarm.
You can buy attendance at the
games, but you can't buy loyalty,
enthusiasm and the winning spirit
in the boys on the team. They give
themselves but do not sell them
selves." McBrlde Interview,
Although Coach Bible said little
about specific attacks on the game,
he mentioned the interview with
Bud McBride last fall by an Om
aha paper which aroused so much
discussion at the time. He com
pared the affair to "Pegler writ
ing about golf." "I believe Mc
Bride regrets he doesn't have an
other year to play football," he
continued.
As a means of developing sev
eral admirable qualities of char
acter, Bible pointed out the oppor
tunity to develop "quick thinking,
disregard for' pain, emergency ac
tion, subordinating personal in
terests and pouring out energy."
"The football player must learn
to meet success as well as defeat.
To quit is the cardinal sin," he
concluded.
MEDICAL
COLLEGE
ACTIVITY
PAUL C. PLATT, Editor.
Caduceus Is Getting
Well Under Way.
The Cadeceus, medical school
annual, is rapidly getting the ad
vertising and body of the book in
form for publication. The pictures
for the annual are not all taken
and those who have not had theirs
taken should do so at once.
Bryan Fenton, business man
ager, has had men out selling ad
vertising for nearly two weks and
from the reports the book will be
representative of all Omaha busi
ness firms. Peterson, editor, is ar
ranging for the body of the book to
have some very unique depart
ments and it will be a book every
student should prize.
On the theory that mental ex
ertion requires more food, house
mothers at girl's domitories at
Ohio State university served four
meals instead of three during the
final week. The extra meal was a
light lunch at 10 p. m.
Motif Attends
Student From Drill
complaint of John H. Keriakedes,
a sophomore in tht university, was
presented for consideration.
Imagine the scene. Dr. Lyman
spies a man entering his office
with the customary blue slip pe
titioning for exemption for drill.
With the usual "there are men
drilling out there with worse flat
feet than yours" about to issue
from his lips, one can picture the
consternation registered on that
good gentleman's face when he be
came aware the man before him
desired a reprieve for no other rea
son than that the military depart
ment wn unable to supply a uni
form large enough to cover his
some 200 odd pounds.
Astounding as it may seem, it was
on that plea that the man based
his excuse, and the records of the
military department will now show
that one John Henry Keriakedes
was given a permanent reprieve
from military science because a
uniform of sufficient size could not
be supplied. These are the simple
facts of the case and If they sound
too unreasonable to lend credence,
investigation will bear them out.

What was probably one of the
bcFt games of the tournament in
regard to respective merits of the
two opponents, was played by
Kappa Kappa Gamma and the
N'crgcttes Tuesday at Bancroft.
The game was fat, the floorwork
was good, tbc ability of forwards
to elude guard by quirk pivoting
was especially noticed, even though
the guards on both teams broke
up many passing attacks.

played two games in the class B

lesterday, Alpha Chi Omera
took a game from Chi Omega by a

spectators from the sidelines. The
baskets were especially well placed

guarding combination on the Chi
Omega team was very good. The

Collins Explains Domestic Troubles
Of Giant Dinosaurs of Former Times
BY A DELE EISLER.
In Morrill hall there are two
thigh bones of ancicut dinosaurs
shown on each side of the entrance
to Elephant hall and they formed
the theme of a talk by V. G. Col
lins, curator. One is more than six
feet hie-h, th other about four feet
in height. The larger one belonged
to a lizard which is called bronto
saurus, a word meaning "thunder
lizard," and was found in Wyo
ming. So far nonp of these reptiles
have been found in Nebraska.
The name dinosaur was coined
in the year 1841 by Professor
Owen, and means "terrible lizard,"
Mr. Collins explained. "Their re
mains were first discovered in this
country in 1S77. and were found
chiefly along the flanks of the
Kocky mountains and the plains
eastward, irom Texas to Canada."
These huge animals seem to
have ranged all over North Amer
ica an i other continents. They
seem to have lived in river deltas
and coast swamps. At that time,
however. North America was in
two great parts running north and
south, separated by a narrow sea
from the gulf of Mexico to the Arc
tic, according to the speaker.
"The dinosaurs ranged from
about the aize of a domestic fowl
to gigantic creatures eighty or
more feet In lengtii. They seem to
have started out as rather lizard
like animals, and developed until
they dominated the land animals
of the world." he detailed. "It has
been estimated that the sway of
these reptiles may have lasted for
some nine million years, about
three times as long a period as

CORNELL l.'NIVKRSITY. Ith-
aca. N. Y. An intercollegiate
alumni fund roll call or a nation
wide college drive which might be
similar to the national Red Cross
week was advocated bv L. C. Boo-
chevcr. of Cornell university. The
plan proposed would involve the
Kiartlntr of a drive for funds at the
same time by colleges and univer
sities throughout the country at a
ppecific period each year. General
conduct of the drive would be
under the supervision of a large
intercollegiate bureau. Every col
lege alumnus in the country would
be solicited to contribute funds to
bis or her srhool. Alumni workers
of every school would band to
gether in the rtrtve. i ne jorneu
professor believed that the expense
of such a drive could be divided
between the various institutions so
that the drive would not only have
much more innuence, oui wouia
be less expensive than tbc spas
modic drives emraeed in bv vari
ous universities and colleges at
present ,
has elapsed since their final disap
pearance." During their long history nature
seems to have tried ah sorts of ex
periments with them to adapt them
to changing conditions of the
world, then rapidly coming into its
present shape.
All Are Extinct.
"Some of these animals were
herbivorous and some carnivorous,
some walked on two legs, some on
four," said Mr. Collins. "Some had
armor plates on their bodies, some
horns, some spines; all of no avail,
as they all died out.
"Perhaps the most interesting of
all experiments that nature seems
to have tried in order to save her
dinosaurs was with the vegetarian
stBgosaurus. an armored creature
about twenty feet in length and
seven or eight feet high, with a
remarkably small head in propor
tion to the size of its body. Its
brain was in consequence quite
tiny, and utterly inadequate to con
trol the huge body, and so nature
endoA-ed him with a second brain
at the end of his tail."
Reptiles have fallen from their
high place and it is now possible
for us to pass our whole lives and
hardly ever see a reptile save in a
zoological garden.

Lamson Is Back; Many Fast
Men Will Be Entered
For Nebraska.
Nebraska cinder artists will go
through their paeea Saturday aft
ernoon in the stadium in prepara
tion for the Big Six rndoor meet
at Columbia Mar. K. The meet .Sat
urday will be the final tryout be
fort the team Is chosen to repre
sent N-braska tn the indoor
rlHssic.
The lluskers will rate as leading
contenders for the indoor tHIe by
Virtue of their decisive victories
over Missouri anil Iowa State in
early season dual meets. Okla
homa, winner of the meet last
year, will be the main competition
with Ames and Kansas given ru
outside chance to win the meet.
Return of Willis lmson to ac
tive competition will greatly help
the squad's chances. Lamson has
not been able to run since the first
of the year hut was allowed to
take hiJ arm out of the cast Sat
urday and will represent Nebraska
In both hurdle events. Petit,
Thompson and Smutny are the
other hurdlers who have been
turning in good performances and
these four men should score sev
eral points In both barrier events.
Outstanding Men Compete.
Bill Ossian will renew his feud
with S-nilts of Iowa State, both
men falling to make 13 feet in the
dual held lust week. Ossian barely
knocked the bar off on his last
two attempts and may be able to
come through with a first place to
add to the Nebraska total at Co
lumbia. Cobe Tomson, present Big
Six record holder in tbo broad
jump. Is another man who should
crash throiiRh. Tomson has jumped
over 23 feet in the two meets so
far this season and may threaten
Bobby Stephen's indoor record of
23 feet 6 Inches in the meet.
Bob Ostergaard has turned in
fine performances in his three
races this year and should help
Scbultc's squad in the SS0.
Sprague has also been running
nicely and turned in a performance
the first of the week which should
place him in the probable winner
class. Fulrodt is another man who
may como through with some
points.
Honors Divided.
The remaining events on the
program have no outstanding men
competing in them and the honors
are fairly well divided. In the
dash. Meier of Iowa State, who
has won his races by safe margins
the last two weeks, will rank as
the likely winner. Petz. Easter,
Smutny and Steffan are the prob
able. Nebraska entries in this
event.
The Big Six indoor meet will
close the season for Nebraska with
the possible exception of the Il
linois relays. The Husker hurdle
relay tam may compete in this
meet and Schulte muy also send
some outstanding men to the event
but dos not plan on sending a full
team to compete. The hurdle relay
team won its event last year and
has a good chance of repeating.
Only one man was lost by gradu
ation and two sophomores, Petz
and Smutny will fill in this va
cancy. DRINKING LESS POPULAR.
