Ferguson, Foster in Favor of
Mixer; Schedule Meeting
For Thursday.
The dispute over tln ownership
of the "brown derby" will he settle
by a convention of the student nf
the Engineering ring and Law col
leges at tie Cornhuskcr hotel ball
room Thursday night. At Hint time
arguments will be presented to an
impartial judge who will render the
verdict as to who shall retain the
derby.
Deans of the two colleges ex
pressed their .satisfaction as to the
method of arbiitration - ..ofcii by
the students.
Dean H. H. Foster, of the Law
college issued the following state
ment. "The Engineers have shown
commendable spirit of good sport s
menship in their offer to submit
their claims to the blown derby to
arbitration. The Laws also prefer
to decide controversies by force of
argument rather than by accuracy
of aim in egg throwing or by other
purely physical accomplishment:;.

The plan of settlement as worked
out by the joint committee should
do much to encourage cordial rela
tions between students of two
great professions."
Ferguson Issues Statement.
"I think that the students have
hit upon a good scheme for set
tling a difficult problem. Theie is
no doubt that the decision rendered
as a result of the plan will be
final. Both groups, I am sure,
will accept it very frankly." Dean
J. O. Ferguson, of the Engineering
college stated in connection with
his opinion of the matter.
"This will not do away with
rivalry between the two colleges
but it will lesson the animosity. I
am cmite sure that the two groups
will have a better appreciation of
each other than they ordinarilly

BOYCOTT OF JAP SILK
Thcta National Group Backs
Movement; Local Chapter
Is Undecided.
Members of the local chapter of
Kappa Alpha Theta are unable to
agree on the campaign launched
by the national sorority demanding
a boycott on Japanese silk. Much
position was voiced to t
ter received which asked that Ja
pan's chief export to the United
States be boycotted.
"Although the letter was dis
cussed in meeting, the chapter
reached no decision on the matter
because we disagreed," said Julia
Kocster, president of the chapter.
"It was decided to leave the mat
ter up to the best judgment of
each individual member."
Miss Kocster also said she sup
posed njpst of the girls would con
tinue to wear their silk dresses.
Jane Youngson, member of
Kappa Alpha Theta and president
of Tassels, remarked as follows
when questioned on the matter: "I
think the idea is absurd. Of course
most of us will wear our silk
dresses."
When questioned as to whether
any of the girls had cotton dresses
to wear as a substitute, it was re
ported by one of the members:
"Well, I suppose so!"
Mrs. Hoover, wife of the presi
dent, was brought into the con
troversy when the fact that she
wore a cotton dress at a white
house reception on Feb. 4 was
cited in the campaign. This fact
caused considerable concern and
one of Mrs. Hoover's social secre
taries issued a denial that Mrs.
Hoover had meant to pave the way
for a boycott against silk.

The student members are elected
to membership on the board by the

is made up of one member of the

"I do not see where, from a stu

IS PRAISED BY CRITIC
Acting Leading Characters
Is Given Favorable
Comment.
JENKS SUPERB IN ROLE
Commenting favorably upon the
current production of the Univer
sity Players, "Death Takes A Holi
day," the dramatic critic of the
State Journal describes the show
as based on an idea that strikes
the imagination. The acting of the
leading characters is praised, es
pecially that of Hart Jenks.
Following is the opinion of the
Journal's critic:
The play, "Death Takes a Holi
day," which the University Play
ers are presenting at the Temple
theater this week, is based on an
idea that strikes the imagination.
That sinister individual, Death, is
placed on the stage and he, having
conceived the idea of taking a
three day vacation, is anxious to
find out how mortals-think and
feel; why they fear him; and to
discover the meaning of such
words as love, terror, hate and
fear.
In the role of Death, Hart Jenks
is superb. He wears a sinister air
tinged with sadness which becomes
the common conception of death.
He is eternally sad because he is
unable to understand why mortals
fear him. Yet being all powerful,
he i3 princely in his bearing. He
commands and mortals respect
and obey him. There is nothing
sepulchral in Mr. Jenk s voice: it is
deep, powerful and resonant. Yet it
does not betray him in the charac
ter of Death, for death is not, the
author of the play would have us
understand, what we think it to be.
Grazia, played by the dainty
Miriam Kissinger, was one person
who seemed to understand death.

YEARBOOK SALES
ARE TO CONTINUE
Mousel Wants 500 Students
To Purchase Annuals in
Spring Drive.
WILL NOT HAVE SURPLUS
No Extra Cornhuskers Will
Will Be Ordered to Meet
Late Demand.
Student response to the second
semester sales campaign of the
Cornhusker annual has been en
couraging, according to Russell
Mousel, business manager. The
campaign, which will continue un
til Saturday, March 5, is the last
one which will be conducted this
year. As soon as it closes book or
ders will be placed with the print
ers for only as many numbers as
have been sold.
The practice of ordering only as
many yearbooks as have been pur
chased in advance was inaugurated
last year. Its enforcement found
many students wanting books in
the spring but unable to procure
them because they had not made
their purchase in advance.
"We realize that this sales plan
often keeps many students from
purchasing a book because of the
fact that they feel they should
conserve their money until spring,"
Business Manager Mousel pointed
out. "However, it is necessary that
we follow this policy in order that
we have no surplus of books left
over."
Want 500 Purchasers.
Mousel expressed the hope that
at least 500 students would see
their way clear to purchase an
nuals between now and Saturday.
"Cornhusker sales this year are
lower than ever before in recent
years," Mousel said. "Although we
realize that students are to be
commended for spending their
money carefully we cannot but feel
that in not purchasing a Corn
husker they are doing themselves
an injustice. We have cut our price
to the lowest possible figure that
of $5.00 cash or $5.50 in install
ments, in order to make the year
books available to the greatest
possible number."

TALK BYJSS TOWNE
Discusses Requirements and
Possibilities of Fields
Which Are Ooen.
CONDITIONS DIFFER NOW
"Too often we are apt to ef
fervesce over a vocation when we
should pace it as it actually is,"
said Miss Harriet Town in a talk
before the freshman activity meet
ing yesterday afternoon at 4
o'clock. She stressed the need of
really understanding a vocation
and the requirements and possibili
ties of the field before entering it.
In the earlier part of her talk
Miss Town explained that condi
tions today were very much dif
ferent from the conditions a few
years ago.. At one time there were
not teachers enough to fill the de
mand. The last year there were
hundreds of University graduates
who had no positions to turn to at
the end of their college education.
Miss Town spoke especially of
the field of education, its divisions
and its scope. The disadvantages
of the field were enumerated and
explained. One of the outstanding
rawbacks of this particular voca
tion was the short period of time
in which one could fill a better
position. Very few school systems
ke to retain a teacher after she is
ixty or sixty-five years old.
"A teacher is, whether it be a
mother, priest, or instructor, the
true maker of history," says H. G.
Wells. A teacher should be closely
connected with the social service
worker in a community. There are
wonderful opportunities to serve
Miss Town explained and for that
reason many people choose it as
their vocation. It has been said
that our nation has either suc
ceeded or failed because of Its edu
cator. DELIAN-UNION PLAN

BIZAD SPRING PARTY
Sponsor Worthwhile Activity
In Response to Campus
Leaders Request.
PRUCKA APPOINTED HEAD
In response to campus leaders'
requests for greater interest in
activities, and the creation or
worth while activities by campus
organizations, the Bizad executive
board has acted by initiating the
first annual Bizad spring party
which will officially open the Uni
versity of Nebraska spring party
season Friday evening, Aiarcn n.
Pierce Jones, president or ine
board, has appointed Gorman
Prucka as general chairman of the
party committee. Prucka, a
sophomore in the college of busi
ness administration, is president
of the commercial club.
"We are endeavoring to make
the Bizad spring party a tradi
tional event in which the entire
student body may participate,"
declared Prucka. "The committee
hopes to place this party on a par
with the Military ball, Interfra
ternity ba'l and Junior-Senior
prom. Just as the prom closes
formal season, the Bizad spring
party will open the spring party
season."
In previous years students in the
college of business administration
have conducted a "Bizad day." The
spring party is designed to replace
the field day, and in so doing, tne
affair will be of all-student nature.
Having signed Eddie Jungbluth
and -his orchestra to provide the
music, and having secured the
Hotel Cornhusker ballroom in
which to hold Ihe party, the com
mittee is now at work arranging
an entertaining program for the
evening.
Tickets will sell tor one dollar
per couple, according to Prucka,
and will be placed on sale some
time this week. The committee
believes that the price of the ticket
will encourage more students to
attend the party than would if the
admission price was higher.
Other members of the spring
party committee are Chalmers
Graham, junior, who is in charge
of publicity, and Maxine Wull
brandt, senior, who will arrange
for chaperones and decorations.

fund. He issued the following
statement:
"I am pleased to see the interest
that the university students are
taking in drought relief. The
American Legion, the Farmers
Union, Chambers of Commerce and
many other organizations have co
operated splendidly in providing for
the pressing needs of tne un
fortunate and suffering citizenship
oi our state..
University Groups Generous.
"The aid of university groups
has already been generous. The
job will not be done, however, until
the people in the stricken area are
relieved by spring grown vege
tables and pastures.
'In the meantime we must not
permit the relief work to slacken.
We must furnish them the food,
clothing, and livestock feed that
they need and many will have to be
helped with seed in the spring.
Anything that can be done to ncip
nrovide the funds for this is
deeply appreciated by the people of
the northern counties who need as
