success. To insure such a suc

exchange their tickets for other
seats, so that they may be
seated with their parents on
Dads' day.
Since it is impossible to pro
vide tickets for parents within
the student section, it is our de
sire that students exchange
their tickets for others enabling
them to sit with their parents

NJURED COEO SUES
STATE' FOR $10,000
Ruth Cole Wants Money for
Damages Suffered When
Thrown From Horse.
Miss Ruth Cole, now of Dea
Moines, formerly a student at the
University of Nebraska, has filed
a claim for $10,000 against the
state of Nebraska alleging that
she was injured while riding a
horse in the Capitol Riding acad
emy. The claim was sworn to by
the claimant Oct. 29, 1929. as
shown by a copy filed with State
Auditor Johnson by Richard F.
Wood of Lincoln. It will be sub
mitted by the auditor to the legis
lature next January.
The claim states that Miss Cole
enrolled at the university as a stu
dent Sept. 15, 1927, and was later
enrolled as a full student in the
colleges of applied science and fine
arts and as a student in these col
leges was regularly enrolled in the
class in physical education, "as re
quired by the curriculum of said
institution." Oct. 21, 1927, she al
leges she was thrown by a horse,
that she was three weeks in a hos
pital, lost a full year's time at the
university and paid $333.25 hos
pital bill and $150 to physicians.
A fracture of the vertebrae caused
great pain, disabled her and neces
sitates wearing of a brace.
The claimant alleges that the in
jury was the result of the negli
gence and carelessness and impru
dence on the part of the instruc
tor in riding in falling principally
to provide a safe animal for stu
dents who were not accustomed to
handling horses.

INSTRUCTOR WRITES
Miss Marjorie Shanafelt of
Museum Tells of Magpie
Captured Here.
An article entitled "Just Mag
gie" in the current issue of Nature
magazine Is from the pen of MifcS
Marjorie Shanafelt, of the univer
sity museum. This is one of a se
ries of fourteen items Miss Shana
felt has promised to write for ths
periodical.
The story treats of the first ap
pearance on record of magpies
flying over Lincoln. Many people,
not recognizing the birds, thought
them harmful and shot them.
The university obtained one
which had been wounded, and it is
the subject of Miss Shanafelt'
writing.
The magpie was maintained and
nourished in the museum, where
it was a center of interest for
many months last winter. When
last heard of, it was the pet of
a boy to whom Miss Shanafelt had
given it.
