Six Contests During
Coming Season.
Nebraska's long-awaited swim
ming pool, now under construction
under the stage of the Coliseum,
will be ready for use about Nov. 1,
Swimming Mentor Rudy Vogeler
stated yesterday.
The pool will be one of the best
of its kind in this section of he
country, and a thousand spectators
will be able to view Big Six nata
tors do battle for swimmir hon
ors. The Nebraska tank, which is
to be 35 by 75 feet and 10 feet deep
in the deep end, will have two low
diving boards and one high one.
It is exceeded in size and excel
lence only bv the pool at Iowa
State, which is the second largest
indoor pool in the country.
Subject of much spirited con
troversy last year, it Is thought
that the pool will be a haven for
Cornhuskcr students, to whose use
the pool will be open at all free
periods when there are no classes
or when the Varsity squad is not
working out.
For Both Men and Women.
Both women and men students
will have the use of the pool. A
separate locker and shower room
being built for women students
in the northeast corner of the
coliseum basement. Men students
will use the locker room now used
for basketball, handball and other
Indoor activities.
Construction work has pro
gressed to the building of the
forms preparatory to pouring the
concrete. It is "hoped the side
walls will be readv to pour some
time today after the awaited fil

Poliaical seas at t his institution are resting in a complete
calm ono of those calms which might foreshadow an election

Eyes which are accustomed to the intricate maze of politi

vear. Quite obvious is the course of the Blue Shirt stiff which

voting tinsel the Blue Shirt marin

traded their wares for no less than
eight class presidencies, three pub
lication board offices, and a full
slate of student councilors.
Somewhere in the Blue Shirt
wake struggled the Yellow Jacket
yacht, buffeted by chance billows,
deserted by a sister yacht of soror

port each time. Neal Gomon, vet

disregard this surface froth for
their steel-plated skiff is quite
water-tight. Meanwhile the barna

Howard Kirkpatrick. director of
the university school of music,
announced Wednesday that about
thirty applicants have filed for the
partial scholarship awards which
are being offered to students in
terested in music. Applicants are
Judged by a group of picked
Judges.
There Is a greater number of
students competing for the awards
due to the added publicity given
them tl is year. All teachers of the
school have granted at least two
partial schoalrships to students
this year, which means that one
partial scholarship will be awarded
to the outstanding freshman and
one to each winning upper class
man. The scholarships may be divided
so that more than one student may
receive financial assistance in
studying music. Mr. Kirkpatrick
stated that they did cot think it
best to grant complete scholar
ships because something that Is
gotten for nothing la generally
worth about that much to tbe
person receiving the award.
Student from all the studios
where teachers are accredited
with the university, are trying out

scholarships have been awarded

I1W I It"" .ww.- '
Although thsre has been a do
crease of students returning
to school as compared with last
year. Finance Secretary L. . E.
Gunderson expects a total enroll
ment that will measure up to last
year s. An increase in new stu
dents is coun'.ed on to take care
of te drop in number of old stu
dents. One fndor that tends to give
credence to the supposition that
there will te fewer students en
rolled this vear was the very rspld
registration that took place last
year.
It is expected that registration
in the colEe of medicine Friday
and Saturday and registration in
the graduate college early net
week w ill bring the grand total to
something between six and ve"
thousand, the ordinary enrollment
figure.
No new registration figures
were available from Mr. Gunder
