PBK hears Dean Hosp Dean's survey shows prisoners are students Speaking before the first fall meeting of Phi Beta Kappa last nierht in the Union Miss Helen Hosp, dean of women, presented a ten year summary or adult cduca' tion in penal institutions. Miss Hosp emphasizv.1 the great ad vances that have been made in ad justment of prisoners for outside life, and the work of universities in this line of education Dean Hosp traced the various means available to prison Inmates prison schools, libraries, educa tion in shop work, and most im portant, correspodence courses, These correspondence courses are the most feasible means or educa tion for penal institutions, Miss Hosp believes, as they helped men prepare themselves for social uv in? when released, and also pre pared them to earn their liveli hoods. Miss Hosp cited a study which she made in New York prisons proving the value of correspond ence courses, and quoted numer ous letters she received in the course of this study. She found when comparing scholastic records made in this type or worK or men in prisons and of those who are free, that the prison inmates had made far better records. More prisoner study now This she believes due to the counseling system which attended these projects, and guidance and help given in personal interview bv orison authorities. During the last ten years, the number of prisoners studying these courses has greatly Increased. Dean Horn also lauded the unl versities for their co-operation in nrr-n.n-imr and offering .these courses. She particularly mention ed the Universities of Wisconsin and California, and told of the work Nebraska is doing along this line.

The Huskers Lincoln Journal. came through the Baylor game in good shape, except for a shoulder injury to Vike Francis.

Hooper, new dean of the college, are an nounced by Dr. A. H. Schmidt, chairman of the department of prosthetic dentistry.

Kansas State, playing with out their ace fullback Elmer Hackney, lost for the first hav i'hociiasm time this Sea- Lincoln Journal. son as Missouri beat them 9-7. The Tigers piled up 9 points, then the Wildcats scored their touch down on a disputed pass play in the final quarter. Hackney will be unable to play against Nebraska. Good passing The Huskers showed that their passing attack was gone but not forgotten in the Minnesota and Iowa State games as they put on an aerial display that gave the southwesteiners something to write about. Passes from Herman Rohrig to Ray Prochaska scored two touchdowns, while Bob Lud- wick slipped as he was ready to catch another Rohrig pass which had had the touchdown label on it. Nebraska's running attack was driving through the big Baylor line, too, and the forward wall, although outweighed, held the Bears to 61 net yards, both through rushing and passing. Group hears Dr. Bachmann Specialists in cancer lectures to chemists Dr. Werner E. Bachmann dis cussed "Cancer Producing Com pounds" to members of the Amer lean Chemical society in Avery laboratory Monday evening. Dr. Bachmann a cancer special ist from the department of chera istry at the University of Michi gan, told about the discovery of cancer producing compounds, the relation between chemical struc ture and carcinogenic activity, and the synthesis of these com pounds. He also told of recent work with various substances which are used in cancer cure. The lecture opened the fall meetings of the Nebraska section of the society. The Michigan chemist has been Rockefeller foundation and a Guggenheim fellow, and has re ceived the Henry Russel award. Alumni heads end state tour DuTeau, Reeder visit northeast three days E. F. Duteau, alumni association secretary, and Ralph Reeder, edi tor of the Nebraska Alumnus, have Just returned from a three day trip to the central and north ern part of the state. They visited and spoke at alumni gatherings in Grand Island, North Platte, Broken Bow, Nor folk, and Columbus, the object of the trip being to promote and or ganize more alumni clubs through out the state and to acquaint the alumni with the problems and needs of the university. Other towns at which they stopped to visit individual alumni are Seward. York, Aurora, Hast ings, Kearney, Lexington, Burwell, Arnold 'and Neligh. While on their trip, Duteau and Reeder were interviewed over sta tion KGN1 n North Flatte on a half hour program. 9 rats. 1 By June Bierbower The Husfters are once more up in the select group of the coun try's football teams, and if they keep playing like they did Satur day they'll still be up there for a while. The Nebraska team won the game, and the good old sta tistics, too; and they out-dazzled Baylor on the ground and in the air, and all along the line. But Kansas State, who persists In pestering the Huskers is in a swell spot for the Wildcats, that is. If Nebraska runs true to form, the Huskers will be a little "down' next Saturday, and Kansas State even without Elmer Hackney, will be laying in wait for the game just like Iowa State was. However, Nebraska has the stuff to win, and if they do well the next game is Missouri with Paul Chnstman and the next is Kansas on Homecoming Day and the next is with a team named Pitt, and the next one with the Oklahoma Sooners. And while speaking of the Soon ers, sports editor Clavelle Holden in his story of the Oklahoma-K. U battle in the Daily Kansan called them "Biff Jones' defending cham pions, the Sooners." Heaven for bid I Charley Brock, we see, inter- cepted another enemy pass to set up the pins for a Green Bay Pa ck ers touchdown. . .it was against Detroit's Lions Sunday and Brock ran 20 yards with it to the Pack ers' 21... Lee Seeman, George's little brother, is a substitute center at Santa Clafa... Fred Meier ap pears on both ends of that long squad picture which decorates so many down-town windows... he was at the right end of the group, and after the panoramic lens cam era had got his picture, he ran around back of the cameraman and got in line at the other end. . . the grins on the faces of Hermie Rohrig and Harry Hopp who are standing near Meier on the left end help tell the story. It's a little late, but it still sounds funny... Jack "Bucket" Warner, writing in the Denver Clarion, said after watching the Minnesota-Nebraska game that he had come to the conclusion that Rocky Mountain football was as good as that played by the big name teams, and better in some respects. . .says the punting in the Denver-New Mexico game was better. . .that's all very sweet, but listen to what he says is the ONLY difference In the type of play it's the blocking and tackling which he says is "absolutely vi clous, and timed to the split sec ond"...for that matter, when it comes down to the final analysis, that was probably the main dif ference between Michigan and Chicago Saturday. Rifles announce 14 new pledges New pledges to Pershing Rifles, national honorary drill organiza tion, were announced yesterday by Bob Pillsbury, captain of the Ne braska unit.

Ag boys win as Davis intercepts pass, tallies Fitzgibbon converts Most exciting intramural game yesterday was the Farmhouse 7-6 victory over Delta Tau Delta in league IV. The Farmhouse touch down was scored by Norman Davig who intercepted a pass and ran about 50 yards for a touchdown; John Fitzgibbon kicked the win ning point. The Delts score came when they blocked a kick In the enemy end zone. Also In league IV was the Alpha Tau Omega-Zeta Beta Tau game, which the Alph's won by a 13-0 score. It was Bob Jungman that gave the victors their first score with Sid White kicking the extra point, bod James who received a pass from Sid White went across the double stripe for the last 6 points. Little "Whizzcr" Mack went on a scoring spree in Kappa Sigma's 25-0 blackout of Acacia. Mack accounted for two Kappa Sigma's 25-0 blackout of Acacia. Mack accounted for two tallies, both on end runs. Rothwcll and Seimson caught a pass apiece for the other counters. In league I of Barb football, Brown Palace bowed to the Com manders to a 15-0 score. Blaine Lord who shined in the game made both touchdowns, one being made in the last 5 seconds of the last quarter. A pass from Lord to Hugh McKenna accounted for the extra point after the first touchdown. Two more points came when the Palace team was deep In their own territory and a bad pass from cen ter went across the end zone which made an automatic safety.
