Tlie Genls Turn Sensibly
Hatted Head-Hunters
The better men about school
,fcel that they can judge a prospec
tive woman employee's efficiency
by her hats. Most of them are
quite positive about it. They are
sure that an interviewee for a post
tlon can be sized up as to her bust
ness capabilities from her head'
gear.
There were two notable excep
tion among the positive minded
masculinity questioned on the Is
sue. One of them was a straight
forward anthropologist who
claimed that he didn't even no
tice feminine headwear, paying
attention rather to a woman's
hands, face and general neatness
of dress. He Is Interested chiefly
In her Intelligence, he claims,
but asserts that such may not
be accurately determined on
sight, but rather over a period
of trial. "Even the best com
panies," he distractedly explains,
"give you a 30 day free trial."
A Philosophical Ignorance.
The second non-judper of wom
en's hats was one of those heckling
philosophical birds the kind that
harries one s every utterance, wor
rics it .torments it, and then flings
It back in one's face a mangle of
Its former self. His verdict regnrd
lng hats was reserved until he had
quizzed the inquirer extensively as
to what a hat is, what a hat should
be, what an extreme hat is (held
in poor taste fo,r business wom
en), and as to whether an ex
treme hat is an Indication of an
"extreme woman." Then, and only
then, the gentleman reiterated an
Initial statement that he was
"completely ignorant" of judging
feminine ability from head pieces.
The rest of those consulted
on hats for business women
were very definite In their views
the deflniteness of the long
disregard. For there's something
sort of helpless about a man's
voicing Ideas on women's haU;
It's been done ever since there
were hats, and with the mini
mum of avail. One facetious ro
mance language professor even
clucks, "We're so used to crazi
ness in women, that craziness in
hats makes little Impression."
This same Intellectual had a
bigger quarrel with other parts of
feminine get-up. Noticed items
were: Face, teeth, "avoirdupois,"
and ankles (inspection of the lat
ter being a peculiarly American
attribute). Most heartily disliked
are enameled fingernails "happy
like talons." And a general state
of overdress, evidenced in both
hats and dresses, our professrt
feels Indicates "a greater interest
In dressing than in working."
"Keep It Simple."
This seems to be the idea of sev
eral others. The masculine prefer
ence in oflce garb runs to simplic
ity and appropriateness. The gen
eral feeling is that taste in hats
and other articles of apparel is
indicative of the alertness and
good Judgment essential to a capa
ble job-holder. Except in extreme
cases, however, actual inefficiency
Is not readily discernible in an ap
plicant's attire because decided so
cial inclination impel even sloppy
workers to put in a good appear
ance. But hats those "crazy wom
en's hats," prompt many blanket
defamations. A student business
manager opines that "extreme,
highly ornamented hats" emi
nate from "perverted delusions
of grandeur." And a man close
to the chancellor exclaims
"When you see a girl in a too
dressy hat, you well, you won
der." And so, gals whatever our na
tural inclinations toward head
coverings may be, it behooves us
to be sensible when selecting our
Job-hunting headgear. Concerning
our hats we must use our heads.

Before Oregon Stale

Penitentiaries give the gang

for a bigger and better crime
career when he is released, de
clared C. Ray Hansen, noted crim
inal lawyer, in a recent speech to
students of Oregon State college.
Hansen has been honored by the
Chicago Bar association for "pa
triotic and courageous services"
as the result of his work In bring
ing Chicago criminals to justice.
He has gone among the gangsters
themselves and been beaten and
shtit at by revengeful criminals,
only to go on and bring them to
court.
Deploring the laws and condi
tions which give the gangsters the
breaks, Hansen explained that
when a man is convicted and has
served his term, he can not go
straight, for his old partners meet
him at the prison gates and make
him stay with the gang. He
pointed out that crime must be
stopped in the highchalr. not in
the electric chair.
. Politics Linked with Crime.
Picturing the hold that organ
ized crime has on Illinois, Hansen
stated, "Chicago gangland might
make or unmake the presidential
electoral vote from Illinois." He

Point Ratings Range From 9
To 137 Out of Possible
Total of 150.
Infcrmsrttrm provided by the
university extension bureau reveals
that of the 878 entering students
taking the Ohio State university
psychological test at the first of
the year, plus those who took the
exam in high school, about half
scored grades of 50 percent or
over.
As no competitive standings
were compiled, students were rated
according to their percentile, altho
each student's number of points
was tabulated. With 150 points be
ing the highest possible number,
point ratings ranged all the way
from 9 to 137. The median of those
taking the test happened to fall
right on the half way mark,
fact which goes to prove that the
test was an authentic basis for
testing the general intelligence of
a student.
The test grades are U9ed as ref
erence by teachers when informa
tion is desired about certain stu
dents.

Schools
J5ays Hansen
This alliance of politics with crime
enables corrupt conditions to con
tinue. Crime compels Chicago business
men to co-operate with them.
Criminals have drawn 183 na
tionally advertised products Into
connection with gangland move
ments, in this way forcing people
all over the country to pay tribute
to the criminal business organiza
tion of Chicago.
Suggest Milwaukee System.
In an interview the criminal law
yer recommended, instead o the
present grand jury system which
indicts the criminals and sends
them before the trial juries, a sys
tern of information and ruling that
would allow prosecutors to sign
complaints in the conviction of
criminals. The system Is used now
In Milwaukee and simplifies and
speeds up the trials.
Hansen has been very active in
watching the Chicago elections and
bringing to trial men guilty of
election frauds, and as a result
has become very unpopular with
the underworld elements. When
watching the elections, he has had
to stop at a different hotel every
night for about nine months, in
order to escape criminals.
In discussing the threatening
letters he has received because he
has refused to be bought off and
has continued to testify at trials.
Hansen said, Nobody is going to
write you a letter of Invitation to
your funeral. If they're going to
bump you off, they'll go ahead
and do It-they won't tell you
weyre going to Kill you. "

DEBATE THURSDAY
Varsity Inter-Fraternity
Contests Fill Active
Debate Schedule.
A call Is sent out for all students
who wish to engage in the pro
gram of Intercollegiate debating
sponsored by the University of
Nebraska. At the present time the
opportunity is limited to men stu
dents who have been at the uni
versity for one full year, who are
carrying at least 12 hours, and
who are In good collegiate stand
ing according to the regulations
governing student participation in
activities.
For many years the debators
have engaged in decisionless con
tests. There are several reasons
for this; the chief one is that it
is hoped to devote attention for a
considerable number of students,
without being forced to concen
trate on a few of the most cap
able with regard to winning deci
sions. Conventional decision de
bating is no longer favored in
many of our universities and quite
a number of colleges. Another rea
son is the expense of securing
judges, which may at times be
come a large item in the activity
budget, which is not large. Re
cently more debates have been
held, In consideration of the
amount of money devoted to them,
the number in the last three or
four years being about 35 a sea'
son.
On Competitive Basis.
Men are chosen for the teams
by a public competition. Usually
former debaters of Nebraska
choose the best speakers. More
favorable engagements and trials
are necessarily given to the men
who appear to best advantage or
who have had most experience.
Two other forms of debate
have been sponsored with the
idea of bringing out talent and of
stimulating interest. These are the
