We take this oppor tunity to tender him our best thanks. It is currently reported that Mr. David Rowc, the widely known base ball manager, has made a proposition to the athletic association to talce the football team to Denver for a game with a club rep resenting the school of Mines. The Hesperian sin cerly hopes that some suitable arrangements can be made whereby a game may be played with our wes tern neighbors. The electrical engineering course is undeigoing a complete and radical change. As soon as the dyn amo house is completed, it will be filled with stan dard electrical apparatus, thus enabling the instruct ors to give an increased amount of practical instruc tion. Dr. Brace is busily engaged in planning and arranging for his new course, which is not, as yet, completely established. A full account of the changes will be given later. The students surely appreciated the "painful" announcement that there would be no school Fri day, November 27. This act made it possible to observe Thanksgiving properly. Many, who live out of town, gathero-J around the paternal hearth, ate turkey and cranberry sauce, cracked nuts, told stories, and performed such other ceremonies as are common to Thanksgiving day. Many others appropriately celebrated the day at Omaha and Council Bluffs cheering for the U. of N. and yelling for the 'varsitv football team. The athletic association, and indeed every stu dent in the university who is at all interested in ath letic matters, are Jhighly gratified at the hearty co-op-peration of the faculty in putting the affairs of the association in a prosperous condition. Perhaps the heartiest, or at least the most practical assistance yet rendered was the offer of the musical department to give a musical concert for the benefit of the associa tion. Of course, such a generous offer was enthusi astically accepted, and elaborate arrangements are being made for the recital.
