The College World BY LAURENCE HALL Ninety-five percent of the high school girls entertained by the Syracuse dean of women last spring enrolled in the university in the fall A waiter's training school is about to become a reality on the Ohio State campus. There will now be no excuse for waiters who spill soup in patrons' laps and jab cus tomers in the eyes with forks. Certain eastern schools have been having revolutions on popular music trends. Dean. Butler of Syracuse came out with a state ment that branded him as an anti crooner when he deplored modern tendencies in jazz and said uncom plimentary things about radio crooners. Bing Crosby, taking the stand for the crooners, wrote a let ter to the Syracuse Daily Orange and refuted the dean. And before their Junior Prom, the Purdue Ex ponent asked the opinion of Char lie Dameron, who was to conduct the Prom orchestra. Said Damer on: "Concerning the popular mu sic and crooning 'bunk', 100,000, 000 people can't be wrong." Contents of libraries, museums and collections owned by the Uni versity of Minnesota are valued at 12,470,580. Following charges and counter charges of illegal rushing tactics, the twenty-four fraternities at Stanford have pushed themselves into a pretty mess. They have been barred from further rushing and pledging activities until next November. Radio television is a new sub ject to be added to the extension course of the University of Cali fornia. One hundred sixty-five dollars collected from attendants at the Carl Sandburg lecture at Ohio State will be used to bring promi nent literary men to the campus. Youth is not irreligious, but only losing faith in the forms and dog mas of the church and synagogue said James Waterman Wise of New York in a recent address to Universny of Illinois students. Thumbs down on slang is the new rule at Oklahoma university, where the classroom slanguist may be denied his diploma. After e: plaining to his class that it would meet with another group for the remainder of the semester, one of Minnesota's most absent minded professors proceeded to as sign seats for the rest of the term. Nine hundred forty-five of the students enrolled at Yale are for eigners. The first step toward abolition of cliques among University of Maryland women ha been taken, with each sorority having been re quested to sign a pledge promising to enter no political faction. Fifty new teachers have been appointed to the New York uni versity faculty. Dormitories will be uised exclu sively by law students at Harvard next year. Present day youth is quieter and more staid than the youth of seven or eight years ago according to Dr. Harris Franklin Rail in the Iowa State Student. snsasBaogsjiaoBaaBBBaBi n Hotel D'Huoburger Shotgua Ecrvie 1141 Q SL 1718 0 St HEAVY PROGRAM Fi Telegraphic Compet, Two Duals and Conference Meet on Slate. OKLAHOMA HERE FRIDAY Newblock, Morris, Howell, Kleas Headline Sooner Performers. Hunker cinder burners, both var sity and freshmen, face a busy pro gram for the next three weeks. On Tuesday, the yearlings start their annual telegraphic meet in compe tition with frosh athletes from other Big Six schools. The varsity meets the University of Oklahoma at Memorial stadium track Friday in their only dual with a Big Six team this season. Coach Schulte's men encounter ten state colleges In a second dual meet on Saturday, May 14. The affair will start at 10 o'clock. The Big Six conference meet here May 20 and 21 will wind up the season for the Scarlet. With Funk, Williams, Lamour eaux, Skewes, Green, Reifschnel der, Toman, Eisenhart, Roberts and Werner showing the way, Freshman Coach Jimmy Lewis hopes to see some good marks hung up during the two weeks of the telegraphic meet. The best four performers In each event will be compared against the records made by freshmen at Kansas, Iowa State, Missouri, Oklahoma and Kansas State. The mile, 100 yard dash and all field events are on the slate for Tuesday. Sooners Powerful. The Nebraska-Oklahoma dual here Friday should be an interest ing affair, with the Sooners pre senting a talented crew of track sters. Mell and Morris in the broad jump, Klees, javelin winner at Kansas and Drake, relays. New block, a high jumper, and Howells, shot put and discus man are some of the headliners on the Norman team. Included in the list of ten state colleges are members of both the N. C. A. C. and N. I. A. A. con ferences. Each school will send ap proximately five men to Lincoln to compete against the Huskers. The schools invited by Director Gish are: Hastings, Doane, Wesleyan, Midland, York, Cotner, Kearney State Teachers, Peru State Teach ers, Wayne State Teachers and Omaha university. The meet has been scheduled on the same date as the state high school champion ships. Nebraska will be attempting to shake off the jinx that has fol lowed them in the conference out door meets when Big Six squads gather in Lincoln May 20, 21, for the annual championships. Coach Hamilton's Kansas Jayhawks have edged out the Cornhuskers for the two successive years, and if their showing at the Kansas and Drake relays Is any indication, have an other fine team this year. Professor Gives ISetc Conception Of Gangland Lore COLUMBUS, O. "This twist was an owl mob's front. Young, pretty, and flash. Had mumbly pegs that would make a preacher blow his kip. She would make the ads for some nifty dames s. o. s. and with phony refs she would get placed." No. you're wrong. The reporter did not punch the wrong type writer key. This foregoing para graph is an excerpt from some of the gangland language gathered by David W. Mauier of the de partment of English in his studies of underworld argot. Much of the public's conception of the underworld is incorrect, which is due, principally, to the ideas expounded by the movies and the newspapers, Maurer says. "The underworld has a language all its own, and is very secretive about it. The sentence structure is essen tially the same, but some of the words are derived from many dif ferent sources and lauguages." The college senior recognizes only sixty-one out of one hundred words in familiar use by educated persons says a report issued by the Carnegie Foundation for the Ad vancement of Teaching.

Co. Joe Miller A PULLED muscle to a track- man is like a sprained back to an angleworm. It doesn t worn. Harold Petz encountered the same trouble at the Drake relays last week that kept Jerry Lee from displaying his best form last sea son. Running as lead off man on the Nebraska 440 yard relay team, Pet managed to deliver the baton to Lee, but it must have been an awful effort. Even at that, the Huskers placed second to Illinois in the heat to qualify for Satur day's finals. The Illinois team re peated its triumph in the Kansas relays, coming in ahead of the field in the finals.1 Coach Schulte says that Petz will not be able to run until tha Big Six carnival May 20, 21 and perhaps not even then. The Nelson boy will certainly be missed. It Isn't very often that two mile teams of the caliber of Notre Dame, Iowa State, Michigan and Nebraska clash in the same meet. With such intense competition, a new record was inevitable. The new mark of 7:48.8 hung up at Drake by Notre Dame means an average of a trifle over 1:57 for each of the Irish runners. How ever, in this case, Alex Wilson, the Notre Dame anchor man made up for the slower efforts of his mates by stepping the distance, unoffici ally in 1:53.7. Schulte is proud of his Husker team, although they did not win. Ostergard, Storey, Ayres and Asher averaged 1:58, good enough under ordinary cir cumstances to win in any track meet. Henry Brocksmith was termed by Schulte as "just about the best distance man I have ever seen in action." The Indian phenom ran three times at Drake. On Friday he did a mile in 4:17, and then on Saturday afternoon shattered the American intercollegiate two mile record with a 9:13.6 mark and fin ished his day's work with an easy 4:27 mile anchoring the Hoosier four mile relay team. The bespectacled Indiana star runs with marvelous ease but with tremendous power, according to Schulte. Harmony in Museum Caused by HaicaiVs God of Happiness IOWA CITY. Ia. A little chap, with ears like Pan and a head like a cocoanut, is apparently the cause of harmony in the University of Iowa museum. He is Hauoii, Hawaii's god of happiness. Hauoii came from Hawaii with Director Homer R. Dill in 1920 when Mr. Dill was on an expedi tion for the university. One of the higher officials in Honolulu in an unguarded moment offered Ha waii's god of happiness to Mr. Dill and before the offer could be with drawn, Hauoii was safely packed in a suitcase. Hauoii is a dwarf-like little crea ture about eight inches long with a mouih stretching from ear to ear. He had the strange experience of being broken to pieces, burned in a fire, and then reissembled. One day Mr. Dill sent a student out to do some huuse cleaning for him. When Mr. Dill came home Hauoii was gone. "What did you do with Hauoii?" he asked the boy. "Hauoii? Oh, you mean that little thing sitting on the window sill? Well, when I opened the win dow he fell ad broke to pieces. I swept him up and burned him in the furnace with some other rub bish." Mr. Dill rescued the pieces ot Hauoii from the grate, put him to gether and presented him to the university museum where he thought the little god would be safe. Once more Hauoii sits on a shrine with a background of palm leaves, and happiness reigns in the museum. In an effort to improve stand ards of social conduct at fraternity and sorority functions at the Uni versity of Illinois, the Interfratern lty and Panhellenic council are forming a complete set of rules to govern social affairs.

TO NAME F0URTH MAN When the University of Ne braska tennis team opens its Big Six season against Oklahoma Sat urday at the Lincoln Tennis club, it will be a case of an inexperi enced team meeting an outfit com posed of veterans, with one excep tion.

Warren Hastings who will play No. 2, Charles Davis, No. 1, who held match point twice last year in a match with Bruce Barnes of Teras U., and Thomas, a steady, cool player. Coach Greerg McBride nas nom inated three of the four who will represent Nebraska in the Sooner dual. They Include Roberto Mario, Wilbur Haegen, co-holder of the state and city doubles title and Ellery Davis. This is tne rirsi seu son for both Haegen p.nd Davis as varsity players. The fourth mem ber will be selected following a series of eliminat'on matches this week between Wentworth Fling, Voris Peden, Joe Miller, Ray Frcrlch3 and Lester Flodman. Miller play3 Frerichs in one bracket, the winner to oppose the victor of the Fling-Peden vs. Flodman match. PRESENTATION OF THE TWENTY-FIRST MAY QUEEN DIFFERS FROM CEREMONY USED TO PRESENT MISS BARR IN 1912 (Continued from Page 1.) the class were added to the day's events. In 1903, the first May pole dance was given, a tradition adhered to until three years ago, and in 19t6 the Innocents first began the prac tice of tapping their new members. The Black Masques, now the Mor tar Boards, first masked thMr new members in 1905. It was the Inno cents society which was responsi ble for making Ivy day an all-university tradition and holiday. Through their efforts, the entire day waa devoted to the ceremonies. 1917 found Ivy day a tradition of general festivities with something planned for every hour of the day and much of the evening. Follow ing the crowning of the queen in the morning, masking and tapping by the honoraries took place in Electric park. There were games and athletic contests, a picnic sup per at night, and dancing. And so, one of Nebraska's few very old traditions, will again be observed Thursday. The May Queen and the maid of honor, the girl who received the second high est number of votes at the campus election, will be presented at the conclusion of the processional of pages and class attendants. The Ivy Day poet will b2 presented, and the Ivy will be planted. An other year will be added to those years of background accruing to the tradition.
