Ninety Counties Ask for
868 Teachers During
Past Year.
In the annual report of the Uni
versity of Nebraska department of
education service, which has re
cently come from the press, sta
tistics are presented showing that
calls for 868 teachers have come
to the teachers placement bureau
from ninety counties in Nebraska.
From twenty-two other states 182
calls for teachers were received
and eleven calls came from for
eign countries. These figures ap
ply to the twelve month period
from Sept. 1, 1930, to Sept. 1. 1931.
Placements of teachers by the
bureau in Nebraska totaled 555
and in other states, 128. Iowa,
second to Nebraska, called for
more teachers than any other
state. Her total is 68. Twenty
five teachers were called for by
South Dakota, nineteen by Kansas,
eleven by Missouri, ten by Ari
zona, Seven by Wyoming, six each
by Colorado and Illinois, five by
Idaho and four by Kentucky.
Other states from which less
than four teachers were called for
were Oregon, Arkansas, Minne
sota, Montana, New Mexico, North
Dakota, Oklahoma, Washington,
Indiana, New York, Tennessee and
Texas.
The bureau received eight calls
from China and three from Alaska.
A grand total of 1,061 calls were
received.
Secretaries in other states have
written R. D. Moritz, director of
the Nebraska bureau, declaring
this annual report to be the most
complete report published by any
state department.

Snell of Tacoina, Wash., and Judge
James S. Dales, who is the present
corporation secretary of the board
of regents.
By 1885 the enrollment bad
grown to 343 and University hall
was no longer able to accommo
date the entire organization. A
second building was added, Chem
istry hall, the present Pharmacy
hall. The demand for still more
room brought on more building in
1887 when Grant Memorial hall
was added to be used for military
drill and gymnasium, as were also
the Science building, now Nebras
ka hall, and a central steam plant.
The year 1891 was an important
one in the development of the
school, for Law college was op
ened, a graduate school was inau
gurated, and the library building
was erected.
The Mechanic Arts building and
Grant hall annex, which was used
as a woman's gymnasium and gen
eral auditorium, were added in
1900 to take care of the enlarged
enrollment, which had grown to
2,256. Grant hall annex was dedi
cated to all the University soldiers
who took part in the Spanish-American
war.
Med Closed 1892-1902.
The Medical college at Lincoln
was closed in 1896 and. until the
affiliation with the Omaha Medi
cal college in 1902, there were no
courses offered in that profession.
This combination with the Omaha
Medical college was discontinued
in 1910 and the University Medical
college at Omaha was established.
The Physics building, and the
Temple building, which was a
Rockefeller donation to the univer
sity, were added about 1905.
A necessary step was taken in
1914 when the city campus was
enlarged from twelve to forty
acres. At the same time an exten
sive building program was begun
which provided for J2,251,001.35 to
be spent on the construction of the
buildings. Those on the city cam
pus include the new Science build
ing, now Bessey hall, the new
Chemical building. Social Sciences
building and Teachers college.
Three new colleges were added
in 1919, namely the . Colleges of
Business Administration, Dentis
try, and Pharmacy. This made the
university a ten college school.
Contributions of alumni, students
and friends of the university made
possible the construction of Memo
rial atadium in 1923. On an extend
ed portion of the campus the coli
seum was built in 1926, to be used
as a field house and auditorium.
At the same time Morrill hall was
built for use of the Fine Arts
school and as a geological mu
seum. The last building to be added
to the campus was Andrews hall
which was erected In 1928 for the
use cw Dental college.
Last year the new heating plant
for all campus buildings and the
state bouse was added.
Great changes have been made
in the university since its found
ing. While it started with one
building, it now has twenty-one on
the city campus. Its enrollment
has grown from 130 to-11,724,
while a total of 19,951 degrees
have been conferred on 17,612 stu

The Projection Booth
By John Quinn
Theater attractions for the com
ing week will give movie fans a
variety of selection. Around-the
world tour, an evening of re
mance, modern sophistication, and
straight comedy are included in
the bookings. "Around the World
in Fighty Minutes with Douglas
Fairbanks" comes to the Stuart
along with "Beau Hunks," the
latest comedy effort of Laurel and
Hardy, for the week beginning
Monday. Marie Dressier and Lil
lian Glsh bring: "One Romantic
Night" to the State. The Orpheura
has a split week, "The Beast or tne
City" showing the first three days
of the week and "No One Man"
taking the screen Thursday, Friday
and Saturday.
"AROUND THE WORLD" AND
"BEAU HUNKS" Stuart.
Doug Fairbanks takes his
retinue of cameramen, production
managers, assistants, costumes
and trunks thirty-fivo of them-
on a trip around the world and
brings the completed adventure to
the fans in eighty minutes. Doug
meets prominent personalities in
several foreign countries, shoots
big- erame, plays golf in almost
every country he visits, including
a remote province of China, wears
shorts, and rides elephants, camels,
autos and steamships in this film.
The production brings something
different in cinema entertainment.
"Beau Hunks" places Laurel
and Hardy in the French Foreign
Legion, Oliver as a forsaken lover
and Stan as a victim of circum
stances dragged along by his pal.
The two partners, after some com
ic situations and puns, save the
fort from the Riffs and become
heroes.
"ONE ROMANTIC NIGHT
....STATE.
A foreign princess and her two
lovers provide the absorbing inter
est in this love tale. Alexandra,
the entrancing princess, is Miss
Glsh; Prince Albert, royal fun
lover, is Rod La Rocque, and Dr.
Nicholas Haller, ambitious astron
omer and third member of the tri
angle, is Conrad Nagel. By an in
genious device one of the lovers
makes Alexandra see it is he that
she loves, and the romantic trio be
comes a duo. The story is expertly
handled by its capable cast. Marie
Dressier, now being proclaimed
"the beloved actress of the screen,"
plays the serio-comic princess dow
ager and mother of Alexandra.
News, screen vaudeville and short
features complete the program.
"BEAST OF THE CITY" OR
PHEUM, FIRST HALF.
"The Beast of the City" brings
the versatile Walter Huston in a
story which turns the limelight of
public adoration and glorification
from the parasitic gangster to the
much-deserving policeman. The
blonde enchantress, Jean Harlowe,
the wise-cracker; Wallace Ford
and a cock-sure gangster, Jean
Hersholt are the othe: principals.
This picture is a pleasant relief
fi.m the extremely over-worked
gangster theme and has a gratify
ing and compelling climax.
"NO ONE MAN" ORPHEUM,
LAST HALF.
Carole Lombard, Ricaido Cortez
and Paul Lukas hold the spotlight
in this screen version of Rupert
Hughes much discussed .recent
novel. The story evolves around a
young divorcee who believes, as a
result of her marital venture, that
"no one is sufficient to satisfy and
occupy the heart of any woman."
LINCOLN TO OPEN.
Monday, Feb. 22, has been set as
the opening date for the Lincoln
theater. Complete new sound
equipment has been installed, and
carpeting has been renewed thru

HISTORY OF NEGRO

liar to America. It is a world
problem. Take, for example, the
situation England is facing in In
dia. I do not think England will
ever be able to establish a stable
government there again," he de
clared. According to Mr. Woodson, ne
groes along with the other colored
races are no longer bowing down
ward worshiping the white man
just because he is white. The ne
groes are reading history, they are
learning some of the things which
they have contributed to civiliza
tion, they are beginning to find out
that every great and progressive
thing does not come from the
brain of the white consequently
their attitude toward the white
man is changing, declared the
speaker.
"We must work out a policy for
co-operation with all the races of
the world." he demanded.
The real history of the recon
struction following the Civil war
has not been written yet, accord
ing to Mr. Woodson. The proper
perspective has been doged by
every author who ever dealt
with the problem, he said.
"When a writer with no axe to
grind will t ake the facts and give
us a story on those facts alone
with every trace of sentiment de
pleted, then we will have a real,
true history of the reconstruction.
Taylor's writing about South Caro
lina and Virginia is an example
of the right kind."
Pays Tribute to White's.
Mr. Woodson paid tribute to the
white men who left the north and
went into the south to help the ne
groes with schools and churches.
Those white men back in the '70s
and '80s helped the negroes to do
nnmpthtne' for themselves and they
are the ones who brought about
the real construction, sua me
lecturer. The real construction did
not take place in the legislative
balls, he said.
"The charges of corruption in
the south during the reconstruc
tion are greatly exaggerated," de
clared Mr. Woodson. "The south
was so impovreished by the war
that there was little wealth to be
stolen. And if there was a cor
ruption, the blame should be on
the white and not the negro. The
negro was not to blame. He was
only used by the whites as a means
to an end.
Much has been said about the
failure of the Liberian govern
ment, according to Dr. Woodson.
But this is no example of the fail
ure of the negro in government
it is a failure of slavery, declared
the doctor. All the Liberian
negroes had was the ideals of the
slave holders how could they be
expected to govern themselves
successfully, queried the speaker.
And Spain should take as much
blame or the Liberlans for the gov
ernmental failure, be said.
At the beginning of his apercn.
Dr. Woodson expounded the his
tory of the negro from tba early
ages down to the present time,
taking into account the various
movements for emancipation in
the United States which finally re
sulted in the Civil war.
The negroes were highly favored
by the ancient Greeks as evidenced
through the literature of that time.
Dr Woodm.n said. This opinion
gradually changed to hostility a

L
1891 Found 1000 People in Lincoln
And Four Buildings on the Nebraska
Campus Relates Barbour in Interview
By GRETCHAN SCHRAO.
When Dr. J5. H. Barbour, chairman of tlio department of
geology, came to tho University of Nebraska, in 1801 there yvwi
practically no town and very little university. That is, there
were only about 1,000 people in Lincoln and four buildings on
the campus. Twelfth street north to the railroad tracks was
a "mud hole." On the campus there was no grass, no trees,
no vines, no shrubs. The onlyo
walks were twelve inch planks,
laid down In parallel rows. "It
was a very interesting naiancmg
feat to walk on them at all," says
Dr. Barbour.
Chsncellor Canfleld accepted the
call to the university on the condi
tion that an iron fence be built
around the original ten acre tract,
in order that the town nerd coma
not be driven across the campus.
The habit of the townspeople was
to drive their cattle across tne
campus in the morning to let them
graze on the valley land beyond
Tenth street. In the evening they
were driven back across the
campus.
The drainage for salt cree ana
its tributaries was very poor. The
water often formed a great cres
cent lake, from one-half to three
quarters around the city. People
were actually drowned on Normal
boulevard, Dr. Barbour related.
During the floods of Salt Creek,
the cedar Mocks with which O
street was paved were washed out
and floated away.
In Chancellor Averys uay tne
iron fence surrounding the campus
wss removed and placed around
Wyuka cemetery, where it still
Btands.
Chapel exercises were very fre
quent at that time. The faculty
was required to attend and sit on
the platform. The student body
took unboundea pleasure in warn
ing this erudite body and deter
mining the rate at which a joke
"soaked" into various members of
the facultv. It took three minutes
before some of the faculty laughed.
A dress suit was unknown at
this time, and most of the dresses
were very somber. Dr. Barbour
says, "the girls wore dark dresses,
flannel skirts and waists."
The population of the city was
negro exploitation was set in
progress.
Dr. H. P. Williams, who is
thfl tacultv reDresentatives
of the University of Nebraska to
sponsor Dr. Woodson s appearance,
introduced the doctor who will go
to St. Louis Sunday. He is tour
ing the middle west and other
parts of the country to lecture on
negro life.

faction again feels that class of
fices, as they now exist, are un
worthy of a place on the ballot.
To them are attached no duties,
no importance and but little re
spect. Should the Student council,
as was suggested last fall, see fit
to re-establish these offices with
regular duties, the Yellow Jackets
will again enter cla3 election

"Concerning the Student council

Yellow Jackets extend their unani

Blue Shirt Opinion.
William Devereaux, Omaha, Al

Shirt position on class presidents
and the athletic referendum. He
is the new president of that group.
He said:
"We are completely in favor
with the movement to secure stu

board. The Blue Shirts will sup

made up of a noticeably fine class
of people. In spite of the hard
times which began in 1891 and con
tinued well to 1897, city planning
began and naturally the city flour
ished. "From the very outset,"
says Dr. Barbour, "the quality of
the people was perfectly apparent,
so it was natural that Lincoln's pi
oneer days passed quickly."
It is probable that as fine u
quality of students, simply ?arbed
though they were in the eai iy days,
attended the University of Nebias
ka as could be boasted of by any
university.
"There has been practically no
time since 3891 when the campus
and the surrounding streets has not
been torn up. All of which simply
spells progress," asserts Dr. Bar
bour. It is probably a conservative
statement that during a student's
four years of university life, he
notes changes in the campus and
still greater changes In the city it
self. It is equally safe to say that
during good and bad times the city
so flourished that there has been a
distinct and noticeable change
every four years, believes Dr. Bar
bour. In 1891 the student body re
corded in the catalogue amounted
to about 600 registrants, of which
more than 300 were preparatory
students. It is doubtful if there
were as many as 300 legitimate
university students in the days of
Miss Smith, the much quoted reg
