Committee.
REPLACES KANSAS MAN
No Radical Changes of Grid
Regulations Expected
During Year.
Coach Dana X. Bible, head foot
ball coach of the University of Ne
braska, was one of two new mem'
bers of the national football rules
committee appointed at a meeting
of the National Collegiate Athletic
association Thursday. Dana Bible
was appointed to replace M. F,
Ahearn, Kansas State college atn
letic director in the fifth district
William J. Bingham, director of
Harvard athletics, was appointed
to replace T. A. D. Jones, former
Yale coach, in the tittn district.
Radical changes of rules will not
be made this year, if this meeting
of the association is any indica
tion. Despite the death roll of for'
ty-nine during the 1931 season,
football heads have declined to be
stampeded into any drastic
changes in the game.
The annual gathering of the
football supervisors was adjourned
with the question of changes left
hanging in the air awaiting the
report of two investigating bodies.
A committee appointed by the
American Football Coaches asso
ciation will look into the question
or aonormai rise in tne number of
deaths resulting from injuries in
lootoan. xnis committee is ex
pected to report at the next meet
ing of the Coaches' association in
December.
The other investigatlne commit
tee is being undertaken under the
joint auspices of the School of Ed
ucation or New York university
and the National Bureau of Casu
alty and Surety Underwriters and
is expected to make its results
known to the rules committee be
fore it meets in February or

Sports writers in the Biz Six
were quick to declare that it was
an honor for the University of Ne
braska to have its mentor selected
to this national rules and regular
tions committee.

Schedule for Ball
February 6.
Two local bands will play for
the annual Interfraternity ball in
the main ballroom of the Hotel
Conihusker Feb. 6, Chalmers Gra
ham in charge of music for the
event, announced last night.
The bands booked are Leo Beck's
and Eddie Jungbluth's. Both will
be augmented to fifteen pieces for
the affair, he said. Beck's will
have two pianos and Lyle DeMoss
and the Kvam sisters, entertainers,
will be with Jungbluth's band.
Additional entertainers will al3o
be engaged for the intermission
period, according to Graham.
Plan Changed.
Previously announced plans said
that a nationally known out-of-town
band would be secured for
the ball, but these were changed
when a conflicting faculty ruling
was discovered.
The ruling, Graham said, pro
hibited out-of-town .bands being
ussd for school events. It had, he
added, been on the books for sev
eral years, but had not been en
forced in the past. The ruling was
passed by the university senate.
The two bands will play alter
nately from opposite ends of the
ballroom from 8:30 until 11:30,
Graham said, with special enter
tainers with the music and during
the intermission.
Plans for the ball are progress
ing rapidly, according to Normaa
Galleher, chairman of the com
mittee placed in charge by Marvin
Von Seggern, president of the
Interfraternity council. Announce
ment of the ticket sale will be
made shortly, reports Charles
Skade, in charge of that depart
ment of th3 ball arrangements.
Others on the ball committee
are: Jack Thompson, James Cra
bill, John Zeilinger and Howard
Allaway.
A year ago an out-of-town or
chestra was engaged for the Inter
fraternity ball but the existence of
the faculty statute was not known.
Bennie Moten's band from Kansas
City played for the affair.

STAGE COMEDY
'Beggars on Horseback' to
Be Presented During
Next Week.
ANN KAVICH HAS LEAD
Ray Ramsay, Nort Osborn
Also Given Parts in
Latest Show.
"Begger on Horseback," a sat
iric comedy by George S. Kauf
man and Marc Connelly, will be
presented by University Players
during the week of Jan. 11. The
play is one of the most outstand
ing successes of the past decade.
Based on a Gprman drama by
John Apel, the two American
masters of stage comedy have pro
duced a play which is unique and
full of hearty laughs.
The plot concerns itself with a
talented young composer struggl
ing against tho pressure of finan
cial need and the public desire for
popular music. He is in love with
Cynthia but Gladys Cady is rich
and wants to marry him. Neil, the
artist, dreams he is married to
Gladys and thereby hangs some
very funny comedy. The ensuing
scenes are pointed satire aimed at
the smug moneyed bourgoeoise.
Pantomine is Included.
A pantomine in act two, por
troyed by six special players plays
an important part in the develop
ment of the plot.
Ann Kavich plays her first ma
jor part in a University Player
production as Gladys Cady, the
young lady whose papa has a fac
tory and wants the young artist
to write "real music," the kind
that will sell. Herbert Yenne is the
idealistic young artist. Nora Os
born plays the eccentric mother of
Gladys. Ray E. Ramsay will play
the character role or Mr. Cady, the
practical father.

FILLEY IS SPEAKER
Savs Several Problems Must
Be Solved if Good
Times to Return.
Tho bad weather prevailed, the
thirtieth annual Organized Agri
culture meetings at the agri
lag start Monday. Attendance at
the Nebraska farm bureau federa
tion convention was better than
expected. It was the only meeting
held during the day and the week's
program gets underway in reality
today with many individual meet
ings and a mass meeting in the
afternoon in the student activities
building.
Prof H. C. Filley, head of the
rural economics department at the
agricultural college, appeared as
the feature speaker on the farm
bureau federation program. He
said the present maladjustment ex
isting between the price of farm
products on one hand and the price
of transportation and many kinds
of manufactured goods on the
other hand must be remedied be
fore permanent prosperity can re
turn to the middlewest.
Measures which will aid In
bringing prosperity include a de
crease in tariff rates and a lower
ing of freight rates, the farmers
were told. Prof. Filley explained
that this would necessitate a luw
ering of wages in terms of money
altho it would not mean a lowering
of real wages to prewar levels.
In addition the members of the
farm bureau federation were told
that the present near-panic among
bank depositors which is the re
sult of bank failures should be
stopped by issuing United States
notes. Prof. Filley said that the
world price level can be raised to
some extent by an international
agreement to use silver as well as
gold as a standard of value.
"Agricultural conditions have
grown worse during the past
year," Professor Filley declares.
"The price of many manufactured
goods has dropped but the price of

TRIBUTE TO WILSON
Service Honors Student
Killed in an Accident
Before Holidays.
Memorial services for Hayes
Wilson, university student, who
was killed in a motorcycle accident
near Aurora on his way home for
the Christmas holidays, will be
held at the Wesley Foundation
parsonage this evening at the
regular meeting of Phi Tau Theta,
Methodist men's fraternity, at 7
o'clock.
Prof. H. V. Cunningham and
Rev. C. C. Fawell will be among
those who will speak briefly, and
Lloyd Watt will sing. The meet
ing and services are open to all
friends and fellow students of
Hayes Wilson.
The accident occurred Dec. 18
when Wilson and anotaer student
Ralph Gibbs of Stapleton, were
enroute to their homes from Lin
coln when their motorcycle in
which they were riding overturned

fractured skull while Gibbs was

Raasch, lanky Carleton center,
were tied for high scoring honors
for the evening with eleven noints
each. Raasch made five ' field
goals and one free throw while
Mason garnered four field goals
and three free throws.
Carry First Half.
The first half was purely Carle
ton's. The accurate passing and
perfected team play of the visitors
stood the Husker guards on their
heads and numerous baskets were
made under the basket and from
near the foul line. The Husker
offense was unable to get going
and substitutions were frequent in
an attempt to find a scoring com
bination which would work against
the man for man defense of the
visitors. Nebraska jumped into an
early lead when Mason got a
short in shot immediately after the
tip off, but two baskets shortly
after by Tressel put Carleton into
a lead from which they were never
headed. Arney got a follow in
shot for Carleton but Nebraska
again came up close to their oppo

ORDER YEARBOOK COVER
Junior-senior and fraternity-so
rority picture sections in the 1931-
32 Cornhusker are now open and
students may have their pictures
taken any time this week at either
Townscnd's or Hauclt's studio, ac
cording to the editor, Otis Detrick.
Contrary to general student
opinion, the Cornhusker stafi nas
never officially closed these sec
tions, and as far as the annual
officials have been concerned,
these sections have been open all
the time, Detrick declared.
The studios acted upon their
own initiative in closing tne sec
tions. They did so in order to take
care of their own Christmas busi
ness. However, they are now ready
to take care of all student trade
for the Cornhusker," said the edi
tor. Since these sections are not
completely filled, they will be open
for approximately one week unless
they are filled in less time than
this," the editor declared.
This will be the last possible
chance for students to get their
pictures in either of the sections,
according to the staff. The Corn
husker will close these sections
shortly to meet their press en
gagements. The cover for the new yearbook
