NEW ETCHINGS IN
MUSEUM EXIIIMT

William C. Gregg, a former Ne
braska student, recently donated
some etchings to the art collection
of the School of Fine Arts, which
is hung in the corridors of Mor
rill hall. Mr. Gregg now resides
in Hackensack, Bergen county,
New Jersey, where he is an influ
ential citizen and noted art collec
tor. Mr. Gregg owns the railway
equipment manufactory of Gregg
Co., Ltd., at Lodi, Mew Jersey. He
makes periodic contributions to
the Fine Arts collection. When
young, Mr. Gregg was active in
outdoor geographical work, and
the confluence of two water
courses in Yellowstone park has
been named Gregg Fork in recog
nition of his efforts.
In error. The Daily Xebraskan
recently described the Gregg dona

etchings were simply selections
from Mr. Greggs private collection.

Fight Against Order to
Move From Residence
Section of City
ATTACK PRESENT LAW
Appealing a decision of a lower
court Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity
has filed a petition in the supreme
court of Nebraska asking that it
be permitted peaceful possession of
its residence at Nineteenth and D
streets, owned by Mr. and Mrs.
Carlisle'Logan Jones and rented to
the fraternity.
Attorneys for the fraternity con
tend that the city of Lincoln is ex
ceeding its police power in keeping
the fraternities out of that section
of the city. Police power, they
contend, is restrained to houses
which invade the rights of others.
They maintain that the court
should consistently decline to per
mit its extension to uses of prop
erty involving mere questions of
taste or preference or financial ad
vantage to others.
City Wins Action.
The action, won by the city in
the lower court, sought to enjoin
the fraternity from using the
premises as a fraternity house. It
took possession in August two
years ago, and altho notified by
the city authorities that the real
estate was classified and situated
in a residence district, the frater
nity declined to move. The city's
petition alleges that the use of the
residence as a frat house has
brought laige numbers of students
to the neighborhood, who are bois
terous, exuberant and hilarious
during all hours of the day and
night; and that their congregating

from strtet accidents, greatly in

property.

Ag College Turkeys Become Scarce
As Thanksgiving Day Approaches
Twelve-Pounders Are Most Popular Holiday Weight;
Large Flock Is Maintained for Benefit of
Prospective Poultry Kaisers.
MISS FEDDE RETURNS
Turkeys became scarce birds at
the college of agriculture yester
day, the day before Thanksgiving.
At least twelve pound strutters,
the most popular weight, could not
be had for any price.
A total of 125 turkevs were sold
from the flock of nearly 400 birds,
according to professor F. E. Mus-
sehl, chairman of the poultry de
partment. The other members of
the flock will be kept for breeding
and experimental purposes.
Members in the department
found difficulty in satisfying the
demand for twelve pound fowl. It
seems that in the turkey kingdom
nens carry from 8 to 11 pounds
live weight while toms weigh from
14 to 20 pounds. According to
these figures, it is immediately
evident that there were not many
turkeys scaling twelve pounds.
Hatching Experiments.
Experiments with turkeys were
first conducted at the college of
agriculture la 1923. During the
past seven years extensive studies
in feed and nutritions nave been
made and some experiments have
been conducted with artificial
hatching and brooding.

comparative ease. Professor Mus
sehl points out. if proper,, yet
simple, precautions are taken. The
solving of problems of sanitation,
he added, are making it possible
for large scale productoin of tur
keys today.
In Nebraska, the largest flocks
of turkeys are being maintained in
the vicinity of Red Cloud. More
than 6,000 gobblers are being fat
tened there. A. W. Moffitt. of
near Lincoln, has a flock of 2,000
birds, the largest in Lancaster
county.
Industry' Increases.
Turkey production has assumed
large proportions during the last
five years, Professor Mussehl
stated. Before that time produc
tion had been declining consistent
ly because of the black head dis
ease. Injection of sanitary methods
is correcting this situation and to
day American people are consum
ing more turkey meat than ever
before.
"Turkey farmers," said Mussehl,
" are able to sell their product for
ten cents per pound less today
than they were a few years ago.
And they make a greater profit.
"Prominence has come to the
turkey because of its historical
fame as a holiday meat," he con
cluded, "but production is now
coming to be so cheap that it is
used the year round."
Chairman Home Economics
Department Tells of
Conferences.
Margaret Fedde, chairman of
the home economics department,
returned Monday from Washing
ton. D. C, where she attended the
white house conference on child
health and protection, the council
of parent education and the meet
ing of the Association of Land
Grant Colleges.
"The keynote of the conference
on child health and protection,
which was attended by more than
1.800 delegates from all parts of
the country, was the importance
of the home in any program for
the child," says Miss Fedde, "as
well as the need for parent and
pre-parent education. We are be
ginning to realize that schools and
colleges need to train for parent
hood and successful family life."

Campus Calendar .
BY CLIFF F. SANDAHL.
Although handicapped in theit
practices the last few days on ac
count of Old Man 'Weather, the
Nebraska Cornhuskers Wednesday
afternoon were determined that
thye would put all they had in the
Thanksgiving spectacle against
the Kansas Aggies today.
As a means of showing this
determination, three complete
squads of Neoiaska players were
brushing up on their offensive at
tacks, -hU -the time evincing the
best degree of "fire" that had boon
displayed in their practice periods
all season. And the reason is plain
to see. for they are not going to
allow the neighboring farmers to
take them to task.
The kickoff for the la.st game of
the 1930 term has been set for 2
p. m. at Memorial stadium.
"Dope" Points to Struggle.
All that the "dope" on the game
ooes is to point to a hectic strug
gle, with Nebraska holding the
edge, if any, because of a record
of victories during the yeais the
teams have met. Thf Huskers
point to the fact that the Univer
sity of Kansas defeated Kan-.as
State, 3 4 to 0, and that Nebraska
trimmed Kansas, 16 to 0.
But then the Wildcat followers
come hack with a counter some
thing like this:
The K-Aggie victory over Mis
souri and the Husker tie with the
Tiger team, as well as the 13-0
victory over Iowa State, a team
over which Nebraska barely eked
out a 2-point victory.
"Dope" from the Oklahoma
games of the two teams was about
even, with the Sooners trimming
the Huskers by two touchdowns
and Kansas State by one.
McMillin Out at Start.
The probable starting lineup for
the Kansas Farmers indicates that
at Jpast at first the old passing
combination of Nigro and McMil
lin won't be functioning. Although

Christian Mercury Article.
Says Sex Appeal Is
Inducement.
Sex appeal plays its part in en
ticing young men into the Reserve
Military Training Corps of schools
and colleges throughout the coun
try, is the opinion of a writer in a
current issue of the Christian Cen
tury. "Certainly there are institu
tions where members of the op
posite sex have been brought in as
extra enticement." the article
states.
"That is to say. the best look
ing girls in certain colleges and
schools have been made honorary
majors or colonels, given snappy
uniforms, had their pictures broad
cast through the papers and used
la general a-s thosg who know how
to use the sex appeal could use
it. The author also feels that
there are those who have been en
ticed into the military branches
through "the lure of free uniforms,
and subsistence allowances, or the
desire to play polo with artillery
horses."
The writer bases his attack on
the facts that military education,
as he sees it. is not good exercise,
that the discipline it teaches is not
needed especially, that its claims
of moral and health training have
no validity and that it does not
necessarily teach good citizenship,
and that the military discipline in
general requires implicit and un
thinking obedience. "Theirs not to
reason why, theirs but to do and
die." he quotes.
