N'ViitiArKlN, I iti'iiin ill Npiifn .n The Hourrltlous article reflect Im; on the fraternity men which mipenml lit the lnwt who of our barb content ix.rnry, rivals the. nllutatlc "literary" production by tho ammo nuthor of n recent Issue. The Xehmsknn does not Bhlo with the frhts or tho barbs. This distinction Is fast dylnp out and soon will no longer be a fhctor In university nolltlPS. How-over, It Is but Just that the fra ternity nu-n and women be defended from such unjust ami uncalled for at tacks. A little history will prove the absolute untruthfulness of most of tho remarks contained in tho odltoiinl vnder discussion: "With u voiy few exceptions the student writers nnd .reakcrs of the university today are members of one oi the other literary soch'tlw. That is true, the nieni tnrshlp of the Knpllsh club and the literal y productions nppearlnR from time to time In college and local publi cations tell but -too wall." T K. Wing-, Phi Delta. Theta, won tho loul and state oratorical honors In lSy3, Adams McMullen, Delta Tau Doltn, 1894. K. R. Sherman, Delta Tau Delta, IS!)... Of tho speakers selected to rcpresnt Nebraska at the Intr-smte debate last ear. tho two first were fraternity men, the third a barb, but ho was not a member of any of tho literary societies. The fourth representative also was a fintemlty man. There was but one frat man this year on the Inter-stato debate. Ho was sick In bed ten days before aha contest, yet he won first place without any difficulty. Thai m mbers of the lSngllsh club are mostly X'nions proves nothing, as it 1 well known that the TCnglish club 1s merely a branch of the I'nflon lltvrary society. Wo have pood authorlt's for this state ment. "We should think that the literary societies would be ashamed to claim as thoir own some of the "rot" which Imi appeared in some of the college papers under the name of "literary productions " We recognize tho fact that literary societies are doing good work, but they do not form a ma jority of the brightest scholar! in the university. There are men outside of both fratornltilcs nnd societies who aro in no way inforlor to those within, nnd they form a large portion of the stu dent body. The frat-barb question is practically dead in. this university. "We do not care to enter into a discussion of this subject, but we want to dispel any false impression that may have been spread abrond among the faculty and out siders as to the scholarship and lltorary ivork of the frat men and those outside of the societies. "Banquet hnlls and social functions" is no more a part of the life of a fraternity man than is nec FAry to give him a cultured and pol ished education m The Nebraskan hopes to offer its readers next week a beautiful supple ment in the shape of a card with the Individual pictures of tho football team thereon. The photographs have been sent to Chicago and half tone cuts ordered. If there is no delay they will be here In time for our next Issue. The cuts will be printed upon fine enamelled paper, and framed they will make a picture fit to ornament any room. Extra numbers will be 10 cents.

A. H. .lonos, 'PS, familiarly known as "Pud," does not need an Introduction to the students and faculty e.f the uni versity. Ho played the position of right guard all through last year's season and also the present one. Ho was con sidered the most reliable man on the team to make a gain through the line, nnd it generally fell to his lottocarry theball the remaining distance on the third down, a duty which be seldom failed to perform without making the required ground. "Pud" also played on tho first 'vnrslty team In 'AS. when he filled tho position of tackle lwirt of the time. His vdiego work wns interrupted for a year, but all remember with what joy his return was hailed In '04. PROFESSOR IN'GERSOLlS DEATH. .ews of tho death of our former professor of agriculture, C. L. Ingcr- soll, was received with sorrow by many of his old students and friends Monday morning Ho resigned his position last April on account of Ill-health and loft for Grand Junction, Colo., a few weeks lator. He died Sunday evening at the home of his brother. Cluilos Leo Ingorsoll was born at Porry, Wyoming county, N. Y., Novem ber 1, 1S44. nnd wns educated in the common schools of Now York and Michigan. He bogan teaching before tho war, but in 1S03 entered the army, where he served until tho close of the war. Ho entered the Michigan sUte agriculture school, whero ho became n chnrtor mombor of Iota chapter of Delta Tau Dolta fraternity. Ho was a graduate of tho Michigan state agricultural college in 1S74. when ho obtained tho dogreo of B. Sc. In 1S77 ho securod his M. A.

THE PROM COMMITTEE. Tho class of '97 mot in room .1 Tuosdny tmornoon and olocied the Junlo; pronionado committee. About thirty woro prosont, but not much enthusiasm was man ifested. F. A. Korsmoyor nomi nated tho following tickot, which vrae elected unanimously: Chairman, .7. P. Rowo, E. P. Sawyer, H. J. Sonhoff. R. Haggard, Ralph Saxton, Harry Robin son, J. P. Cameron, Frod Hall, Mabel Ricketts, Anna Broidy and Miss liaise. Tho twelfth man is to bo elected by the junior laws. His uniform was noticeably different frcm all the rest. The braid was of a different color. About tho same color of thalt delicious Florida fruit that ecmes nearest io the shape of our earth. He had his "squd" in the armory. The gallery wns filled with pretty femi nine faces; he knew it Ho also knew his uniform wa, the prettiest. He was the highest in aulm-rity. The floor had lately been oiled. He swung that pole arcund, which had a nob on one end, aad as he stepped around he bent his knees considerably and raised his feet a good ways from the floor. As I said before, the floor was very slick. The gallery laughed and -when he got up the color of hk- face had assimilated with that of his braid.
