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."

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

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. "V e
must insist that all subscriptions be
paid by this date.

A resolution was then rend by Hay

his unbiased administration nnd the
enorgy and good Judgment he had dis
played throughiut the season. It Is
needless to say that It wns lsissed unan
imously. Sheldon and Whipple w-re
also credited with having conducted the
business management of the tenni to

for his trouble and attention In looking
after thoir physical welfare.
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

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.
