The agitation for the extra fif

This Loss.
INSTRUCTORS RETURN
Despite reported heavy crop
losses in the state and peculiar
economic influences, enrollment ln
the college of agriculture has suf
fered no decline over the previous
year. This was revealed yesterday
by Dean W. W. Burr as he re
counted high points in registration
figures.
A few less women students will
be enrolled this year, the dean ex
plained, but this will be more than
made up by the added number of
men students who have signified
Intentions of resuming college
work. The total number of stu
dents promises to surpass last
vrar a record when a final check
up is made, it is thought.
Additional Fresnmen rreseni.

year's students will be unable to
return to the campus mis iau, ni;

the vocational education depart
ment, who has mucn 10 ao wun

will be made up by the increased
number of freshmen coming to the
college of agriculture, Bradford ex
plained. "It is undoubtedly irue mai
manv oorHnnq of Nebraska have
been severely hit with drouth con
ditions. Dean Burr comniemeu,
hut ua are unable to detect any
effects of such conditions ln our
enrollment this year. We look for

college of agriculture campus."
Crop failures ana iinancmi uw
culties were given as reasons for
a preliminary discouraging eou-
mate of university attendance for
this year, it was reported.
Rosenquist Returns.
, Several new changes have been
made this fall. Carl Rosenquist,
assistant professor of Botany, has
returned to Nebraska and will
have charge of the botany depart
ment of the college until Dr. R. J.
Pool returns in October. Rosen
quist will then assist in the depart
ment. Professor C. H. Filley, chairman
of the rural economics depart
ment, has returned following a six
months' leave of absence during
which time he was at the Univer
sity of Minnesota.
A new lecture table and equip

Dirks, Former Glee Club
President, To Direct
Male Songsters.
First tryouts were held Wed
nesday night at the Cornhusker
studios of KFAB in an attempt to
organize several quartets and a
male chorus of students of the
University of Nebraska.
According to Dietrich Dirks,
'24, former president of the Var
sity Glee club, an attempt is be
ing made to organize all men in
the university interested in quar
tet and chorus work, due to the
fact that there is no varsity chor
us. "We hope to get together four
or five quartets of Nebraska stu
dents," said Dirks. "The quar
tets singing together would make
up our chorus. The quartets will
be rated according to ability. The
first quartet will broadcast
through KFAB. All of the sing
ing groups will be used in school
and outside activities."
According to Dirks, who is at
present manager of the KFAB
studios at the Cornhusker hotel, a
world of activities will be carried
out by the quartets, including trips
through the Btate as well as local
presentations. He will direct the
songsters.
At Wednesdays' tryouts close to
twenty men were given auditions.
A second tryout is scheduled for
Tuesday, Sept. 23, at 7 o'clock in
the Cornhusker studios of KFAB.
It is hoped by Dirks that from
fifty to seventy-five men will
compete tor places in the quartets
and the chorus.

Kansas Reports Similar Sit

The employment a.tuatlon at
the University of Nebraska Is the i
worst that It has been In many)
years." stated Mr. AI Wolf. Y. M.
i' a. mnlovment secretary, "and
1 believe that it Is due to the simi
lar depression all over the world."
"I do not believe that there are
fewer men working this year, but
students who ueld Jobs lant year,
realising that there would be a
scarcity of positions, wasted no
timo in making sure of their old
Jobs for tne present yer,
tinned Mr. Wolf.
Between 350 and 400 students,
a few from nearby achools such as
Wesleyan and Cotner, filed appli
cations with the Y. M. C. A. em
ployment office. Mr. Wolf has
found less Jobs available this year
than last.
Students Deserve Preference.
I believe that university stu
dents should be given preference
In Jobs which thev alone make
possible." declared Mr. Wolf. "For
instance, many of the boarding
and rooming bouses, cafeterias and
stores in Lincoln depend upon uni
versity students for the bulk of
their Income. I think that students
ought to have first chance at those
Jobs insUau of outsiders. I have
also found that Lincoln men are
usually preferred for Jobs."
A story In the Daily Kansan,
from the University of Kansas,
states that the Y. M. C. A. employ
ment secretary there has applica
tions from over 300 men. and no
jobs for them. Their secretary be
lieves that more men were forced
to work this year than In many
previous years, and says It Is due
to the fact that workers of last
year have come back for their old
jobs, and that organized houses
arc using their members to do the
work which had formerly been
done by others.

Fund for Expense.
The fund will be used for all

for the needs of all.

In order to take advantage of
the fund, the council and other
deserving organizations will hava
to present a budget of the esti

which will be attempted. L. E.
