Students to Be Selected on
Basis of Qualifying
Examinations.
Plans are being made to award
250 regents' scholarships to, Ne
braska students graduating in 1935
from accredited high schools in the
state, the university extension di
vision has announced. This num
ber was first offered last year
after the regents had awarded 150
in 1932 and 1933.
Seniors in accredited high
schools take five qualifying exam
inations. These include English
and algebra tests, and three others
based on subjects studied in high
school and planned for college.
Students receiving the highest
grades will be granted scholar
ships, though only one is given to
a school. The extension division
has not vet announced thte dates of
thi tpsts hut awards will be made
preceding high school graduation
in the spring.
Winners of regents' scnoiarsmps
oftflr thpv writer the university
rank in school work well above the
average of the school as a wnoie,
survey made in tne extension ai-
vision shows. Of the upperclass
men now enrolled about sixty per
cent ranked over au in graaes.
Nearly all of them stood above the
e-eneral student average. About
half the former scholarship hold
ers had grades over 85, and only
one was below 75 per cent.
Of the 338 students who have
studied at the university on re
gents' scholarships since they were
begun in 1932, 293 are still in
school. Mathematics has proved to
be the most popular major subject
for these scholarship winners, the
extension division survey shows.
Ranking' below it were pre-law,
English, and chemistry.
The college of arts and sciences
has had 155 scholarship winners
enter it. Second in popularity is

More than half 166 out cf 293
of these people nave obtained
work and are partially self-supporting
while going to the univer
sity. In the survey 63 of them are
shown to be working under the
FERA; 20 are in restaurants; and
the others work at various jobs as

Mathews Shows
How Science Has
Solved Mystery
How a faint scratch on a bullet
made by either the hammer or
bore of the gun can pave the way
to the detection and prosecution of
seemingly ingenious criminals was
explained by Dr. J. Howard
Mathews, prominent criminologist,
in his address to an open meeting
of the Nebraska chapter of the
American Medical society, Friday
evening in the Temple auditorium.
Dr. Mathews, head of the chemis
try department of the University
of Wisconsin, has gained interna
tional fame for his work in scien
tific crime detection.
Accompanying the lecture, the
renowned criminologist presented
lantern slides showing the solution
of several murder mysteries, many
nf ivhirh Dr. Mathews himself was
instrumental in solving. Illustra
tions of several microscopic instru
ments used by Mr. Mathews were
shown and their uses explained.
Pictures of minute marks on test
and fatal bullets which so often
decide the fate of murder suspects
were also among the slides.
Mr. Mathews expressed nis dc
lief that steps to make crime de
tArtinn even more effective than
at present may be expected in the
near future. His explanations ana
illustrations were conceded by
many to be more interesting than
the best mystery stories or tne aay,
and kept the large audience enter
tained throughout the entire lec
ture.
Dr. Mathews is making an ex
tensive tour lecturing at schools
and institutions throughout the
mlddlewest.
The gathering of the society was
lt. 159th meetine and was under
the direction of Prof. H. A. Pesrel
of the chemistry department
Ivy Day.
9. Jayhawks Cop Big Six Track
Title.
10. Owen D. Young Secured for
Commencement Address.
Heralding a change in the or
ganization of the Innocents society,
the story selected for first place
appeared April 11 with a glaring
two-inch streamer headline printed
fh red ink. The reorganization
came following moves of insurgent
leaders to establish a chapter of
Omicron Delta Kappa, national ac
tivities honorary, on the local cam
pus, and general student dissatis
faction, including an editorial at
tack from the Nebraskan columns.
More significant from the view
point of many students was the an
nouncement of federal CWA grants
to students, which enabled 454 to
obtain part of their expenses with
government jobs, and several for
mer students to return to school.
With the exception of one other
story, this was the only one select

85 PLAYERS PERFORM
Director Quick Gives Varied
Program; Legislators
Honored Guests.
With a group of outstanding
soloists assisting, the university
band plays its winter concert
this ufternoon at 3 o'clock in
the university coliseum. Head
ing the list of individual perform
ers is Parvin Witte of the Univer
sity school of music. Mr. Witte
has sung in Lincoln many times,
appearing for the tenor solo role
in the recent presentation of "The
Messiah." His numbers will be
"Song of Songs" by Moya, and
ToselU's "Serenade."
As trombone soloist for the aft
ernoon, Richard Mlddlekauff of
Lincoln will play "Pale Moon,"
famous composition of Frederic
Knight Logan. The popular, trum
pet trio of last year also has a
place on the program with the se
lection "Three Kings." Ernest
Green, Concordia, Kansas, and
Darwin Liggett, York, are again
playing the trio this year, and Phil
Klepplnger of Beatrice is the new
member.
Director "Billy" Quick praises
the 153-piece band of this year as
the best he can remember, and he
has held the band baton here for
16 years. In order to get the musi
cians to fit on the coliseum stage,
Director Quick has had to split the
large group into two parts. To
day's concert will be presented by
85 players who make up nearly
perfect instrumentation and ar
rangement. Quick Proud of Band.
Nebraska's veteran bandman is
proud indeed of his organization,
and looking ahead 16 years, ago,
when he first became conductor at
the university, he could hardly have
foreseen such a group of musi
cians. "It has grown every year," Di
rector Quick says. "When I first
came here in 1918, there were only
35 or 40 band members and they
were never assembled."
"War times had made the uni
versity campus look like armed
camps." the leader recalls. "The
band was divided among the com
panies, and separated into the dif
ferent camps. When a call for
band rehearsal came, the officer
would say 'Band musicians fall
out' and those who didn't feel like
playing didn't go to rehearsal."
Director Quick tells that when

is one of a pair of spotted hyaenas.
They are from the collection of the
late Adam Breede. who killed this

shade of spots. Unlike other
species of hyaena these hunt in
packs and are bold beasts. Their
faces are leering and ugly with
pow erful jaws and large teeth.
TRIMS
THRILLER
Cyclones in the coliseum Saturday
nigni.
Over 4,000 fans, the largest
crowd this season, and likewise the
quickest on the boo gallery,
watched the Hu.skers stage a sec
ond half rally of nearly errorless
ball handling, expert shooting, and
scintillating floor play that left
Iowa State a point behind when
Cowan swung a shot thru the hoop
as the gun sounded.
All those traits of good busket
ball playing were essential to th
Scarlet cause, however, for the end
of the first half found them trail
ing by six points and evidently
dazed and baffled by the showing
of their Cyclone foes. Harold W.
Browne must have given his best
talk of the past year in the rest
period, and Lady Fortune must
have smiled her brightest upon the
waning Scarlet to inspire them to
deeds that brought the house to
its feet roaring time after timo
(when they were not busily en
gaged jeering the officials) as the
Huskers made one brilliant shot
after another to finally overcome
the six point deficiency, forge
ahead, and then uncork a series of
beautiful shots and cash in on free
throws that gave them a winning
margin.
Baker Makes Winning Shot.
That winning margin, however,
turned out to be just that of a
gratis flip that Pete Baker dropped
thru the hoop when one of the Iowa
invaders was found guilty of doing
something on which the rulebooks
frown. In fact, when everyone was
picking up his hat and coat and
decided that this was one gamo
