Aces" identified Bennett for a
number of years, and when his or
chestra had finally increased to

POSSIBLE GAIN IN
IIY ROLL
Nearly All First Semester
Students Will Remain for
Second Term.
FIGURES NOT AVAILABLE
First registration reports given
out by the various colleges in the
university indicate that nearly all
students of the first semester will
remain in school the coming term,
it was learned Saturday morning
with the completion of a week's
registering for the second semes
ter. The estimates from the deans'
offices were to the effect that only
a small number had dropped school
and that with the entering of new
students the first of February the
total attendance figures would
probably equal If not exceed those
of the first semester.
Increase Over Last Year.
Second semester registrations
this year in several of the colleges
Lshowed an increase over those for
the second semester of last year,
it was reported. Additionally most
of the students did the Unusual by
avoiding the last minute rush, and
the registrations were somewhat
evenly distributed throughout the
week.
The College of Business Admin
istration undoubtedly showed the
largest increase over last year with
a growth of nearly 40 percent be
ing announced by Dean J. E. Le
Rossignol. Last January 015 regis
tered while by late Saturday morn
ing around 700 had entered the col
lege, indicating that the increase
might amount to 200 students. The
Arts and Sciences college also had
an increase in enrollment over tha'
of last year, according to reports
from Dean C H. Oldfather's office.
Few Changes in Bizad.
Dean LeKossrsnol related that
nearly all of the first semester Htu
dents would remain in the college,
very few dropping out or changing
to olher colleges. A'so in Arts and
Sciences indications are that most
of the students had re-registered.

Honor Role.
Weldun Kees of Beatrice, senior
in the school of journalism at the
University of Nebraska, and K. C.
Shelby of Tulsa, Oklahoma are
authors of stories selected by Ed
ward J. O'Brien for his honor list
of the "one hundred best short
stories of 1934." Dr. L. C. Wim
herlv of the university depart
ment of English and editor of the
Prairie Schooner magazine in
which the stories appeared has
announced the selection by the
noted British anthologist.
Kees is the autnor or -fcaiuraay
Rain" and Shelby wrote "Water
Tower on the Prairie." Biographi
cal notes on the writers will also
appear in the new volume by
O'Brien, who yearly publishes a
book on the "best short stories."
Besides being one of the nine
magazines to publish four or more
three star stories in 1933, the
Prairie Schooner shares only with
Forum the honor of a hundred
percent rating by O'Brien, famous
short story writer and literary
critic of Oxford, England.
Also from the Schooner two
poems have recently been re
printed in "Anthology of Ameri
can Verse." Mabel Langdon of the
university department of fine arts
was the writer of "Cloak for the
Night." Barton Hill of Indian Run,
Pennsylvania has written "Song
out of Barrenness." which was se

Doctor Wimberly expressed his
pleasure over this latest recogni
tion of the Prairie Schooner. He
recalled its many signal honors in
the past and further stated that it
is recognized over the world for
its high literary standards.
The high literary criterion of the
magazine, according to its editor,
is maintained thru efforts of the
university English department,
and the Lincoln or Wordsworth
chapter of Sigma Upsilon, na

SH CRITIC
Nebraska Born Satirist Condemns
Schools of Journalism and Praises
Newspaper Work All in One Breath
From her uui'jue position of a Nebraska born satirist on
fascism, and with all the authority of a writer of a successful
first novel, Virginia Faulkner, whose typewriter saluted
Friends and Unmans, in one and the same breath oondeinns
, i m l .1 '. .. .. ...-.. r... ifr.t-lr ae a 4rfim
schools or journalism ,mu iuirr in-.-'ni-i u.t u
Ing grounds for "literary
buuw
offs.'
Miss Faulkner emphatically de
cries academic journalistic train
ing. "A plain cub," she states, can
sturt from scratch; the journalistic
grad has a lot to unlearn, and is
also hampered by the impression
that he knows something."
Contrary to popular professorial
opinion, moreover, she believes
newspaper experience is helpful in
writing fiction. "Any job which
gives one contact with people and
knowledge of their lives is valuable
for literary endeavor. A newspa
per office is excellent for this. On
the technical side, you learn to go
easy on the fancy English, to
economize on words, and to let
the story, not the writer, take the
spotlight. In short, a newspaper
office is a grand training school
for literary show-offs."
In the same practical vein, the
twenty-one year old writer dis
counts the cultural background as
essential for a woman journalist.
Having herself attended no less
at Columbia Saturday;
in Eight Starts.

competition, naa Deen raiea oui an
outside chance by the experts to
the powerful Iowa State quintet a
week ago. The Cyclones had pre
viously defeated Missouri.
As a result, the percentage col
umn of the conference was thrown
again into a tangled mathematical
mess Nebraska, because Kansas
and Oklahoma had eliminated eacn
other from the undefeated list, re
sided at the top of the conference
for the snace of one half week.
Their Saturday night loss dropped
them to rourtn place, ana snovea
Oklahoma into first, with Kansas
and Iowa State second and third
respectively.
Unlooked for by the experts, the
situation was analogous to the one
a year ago, when the Huskers
knnrked off Kansas, the defending
champion, and then hit losses to
Missouri and Kansas siate on me
road.
Nebraska stepped right out in
the lead and made it appear to tha
Columbia fans that their peta wero

10 to 6 lead piled up by the Husk
ers. however, melted rapidly and
then was outclassed by a one-man
rally on the part of Jorgensen,
high-scoring Missouri guard. His
three field goals and a free throw
unleashed a Tiger counter attack
midway of the first period. When
lunch time finally rolled around,
after a very busy scoring "putsch"
by Missouri and a demoralized and
inadequate defense by Nebraska,
the home team was hanging onto
an 18 to 15 advantage.

SELECTED EXAM WEEK
Women Asked to Apply Now
For Second Semester
$75 Scholarship.
With the selecting of the winner
sometime during exam week, all
applicants for the semester's Wom
en's Athletic association scholar
ship award are asked to file now
for the $75 prize at the women's
physical education office in Grant
Memorial hall, according to an an
nouncement by Jean Brown?,
president of the organization.
Although the final deadline for
filing has not as yet been set. Miss
Brownlee hopes that the applica
tions will be presented as soon as
possible. This award, which is
given each semester, can be won
by any girl who has attended the
university for one semester.
In choosing the winner, the
scholastic standing and the inter
est shown in sports and W. A. A.
activities are taken into considera
tion, the president stated. A secret
committee will consider the appli
cations and the awarding of tha
scholarship will probably be made
early in the second semester, she
added.
v. . , . i i i n i
man inrce cuiiurm inouiuui'm m
this country and on the Continent,
Miss Faulkner rates simple native
abilities higher than an elaborate
schooling. Says she, "Words like
culture and vocation throw me
slightly. I understand lome of the
assets of a girl-reporter would be
ability to spell, to concentrate so
matter what amount of acket if
going on around, to typewrite rap

two to ten fingers. Most Important,
however, are common sense, good
health, enthusiasm, curiosity, and
a capacity for listening accurately
and svmpatbetically. Then, if by s
miracle she baa a brain and an im

charm, sne will be an A-l lady of
the press; If she qualifies in all
respects except the last threa she
will still make a reporter but
