Selleck, business agent for athletics and manager for atu dent activities, when asked his opinion of the recent action of the Eastern Intercollegiate association to prohibit broadcasting of games. This organization which comprises . some of the largest of the eastern schools has adopted the resolution that games played by members of the association and under associa tion Jurisdiction will not be road casted. Major arguments la favor of uch a resolution were presented at the meeting of this association last year. The members hold that tb? broadcasting of principal game" 1 reversible not on,v i0T lessening ttendauce at these con tests but holds at home sports en thusiasts who might otherwise at tend lesser and nearby games.

That considerable areas of over flow land in the forest territory along the principal streams in Ne braska, chiefly the Platte river, possess a great deal of potential value to the state was the state ment made by H. N. Wheeler, chief lecturer for the forest service, when he gave an illustrated lec ture at the Agricultural college Tuesday night. "If these lands were state owned and given proper protection with planting programs, they would be come of material value to the state," Wheeler declared. Areas of overflow land are growing up to cottonwood and other hardwood trees which could be valuable. Most of the timber used in Ne braska is shipped in from the out side at great expense." Land should be put to Us great est use, which, In this instance, is the production of trees, he said. The value of forests In climatic regulation was discounted by Wheeler for Nebraska since there is no scientific data available for the state. play at stadiums of non-memhers. The decision here will be left to the home team. The broadcasting of games in the Big Six Conference was one of the points discussed at Kansas City in September, and the deci sion was that they would broad cast providing the radio stations gave them enough publicity. All schools in the conference were represented and all schools agreed to broadcast. The arguments which have been advanced in favor of broad casting games have been upset by the arguments of the Eastern As sociation. During banner sell-out years broadcasts were held to be an additional service to alumni and supporters but because at most of the games the stadiums are surprisingly empty, the only active board of amateur sports In college holds that broadcasting must stop. Mr. Selleck. further comment ing on the question declared, "I think the eastern schools are smarter than we are." He was of the opinion that since football is the only sport In college from which substantial revenue Is ob tained, everything should be done to get larger gate receipts In or der that the smaller sports might be maintained.

Mixed emotions rocked the student body of San Diego State college this week as it tried to decide just how to take the challenge flung at non- daters by Prof. Harry C. Stein metz of the psychology depart ment. The challenge, which minced no words, appeared in the form of an editorial in The Aztec, student weekly, and called upon members of both sexes, who are inclined to be timid about seeking companion ship, to "get Into the running." And Professor Steinmetz of fered a definite plan a kind of automatic dating bureau: "For heaven's sake (said he) and your own, make yourself at tractive to the opposite sex, do a little flirting and get a date. "You know if this editorial fits you. If you haven't a date this week, forget your silly pride: fold this paper so the title of this edi torial ('Does This Fit You?') shows, and walk around with it; flap it about carelessly In class to day and tomorrow; interpret it where you see it as a welcome to become acquainted." Earlier in the editorial, he de clared: "Worse than being head over heels in love in college is being In different or socially starved through lack of contact with the opposite sex.
