FACULTY MEMBERS KEEP OUT
Professors in State University Not
on McBrien's List
APPROACH CHANCELLOR AVERY
He Told Promoter that lie' Co til d
Not Accept Pay for Lecturing:
and Others Followed Ills
Kxnmple.
LINCOLN, June 16. (Special.) The
puncture of the MoBrlcn hotalr lecture
bureau Is still the most talked of topic
In the gathering places of Llncolnttes,
and no place mora than over at the state
university, where the scheme was evolved
by McBrlen while at the head of the
University extension lecture bureau. It
seems that ho had all the details ready
to spring before he let loose of the salary
he was drawing from the university, and
It Is hinted that he did some commission
lecture promoting before then.
All the university folks, however, are
congratulating themselves that none of
the names of the faculty professors have
appeared In the published list of suck
ers, which la due, perhaps, more to the
caution of Chancellor Avery than to any
foresight of MoBrlen's associates, who
are not adverse to taking money for leo
tures when they can get it legitimately.
As the story goes, McBrlen went to
Chancellor Avery with a request that
he head his list of attractions, and sign
up the form contract and note for ad
vance payment of commissions. Tho
chancellor, however, sidestepped by say
ing that he could not charge for his
addresses, being a servant of the state
for that very purpose, although ho would
be pleased to accept any invitations
which might come to htm. Not talking
for money, of course, he could not be
expected to pay a commission for lec
ture dates.
Faculty Members Cautions.
The attitude taken by the chancellor
toward McBrien's allurements In some
way got whispered around the faculty,
and when the proposition was put up
to them, as It was to most of them, why,
of course, they could hardly go In un
less tho chancellor did, and when he got
tho name of Chancellor Avery on his
list, they would bo pleased to have him
come back.
Others whose names were Inscribed
upon tho McBrlen roll of fame are kept
constantly explaining. Among them Don
L. Love, .reformer, former mayor, and
late defeated candidate for city commis
sioner, Insists that while he signed the
contract, he was too wary to give any
notes for advance commission, and thinks
he should not be Included In what Is
known as the "Josh Hat."
"I am sorry to have this happen," Mr.
Love Is quoted aa saying, evidently more
sorry for himself than for McBrlen, for
ho goes on, "by setting me out as an
easy mark It wilt moke my office as a
mecca for promoters that will disappoint
them, and bother me."
As a rule, the victims of the air bub
ble take It good naturedly, and have al
ready charged off to profit and loss their
tuition In the school of experience.
