TWO STUDDNTS ARE COUNTY SURVEYORS
BECKER AND ELLIS HOLD OFFICE AT HOME.
Becker Youngest Official in County Are Paid by The Fee System.
Two students in the school of Engineering have been elected to the offices of county surveyor while they are yet in school. Harry W. Becker a junior in the school of Engineering, was elected to the office of surveyor in Ellsworth county last fall, November, and Herbert A. Ellis, a senior engineer was elected to the same office in Pratt county at the same time. Mr. Becker was the youngest man on the ticket and he is now the youngest man that has ever held the office in the county. He assumed the duties of the office, when he went home the first week of the Christmas holidays. At present he attends classes on the hill and makes the trip to the county seat only to attend to the important work that has to be done. In the meantime, a deputy maintains the office for the local work.
Mr. Ellis was elected to the office in Pratt county after serving for three years as the deputy to the man who then held the position. Now he makes the trip to the county whenever important work needs his attention. He returned Friday from the Easter holidays and a week of work that had to be finished this spring before the end of the semester would permit him to spend any considerable length of time at home.
Becker says of the position that one is often called upon to act in the capacity of peace maker between contending parties without making the actual survey which would legally declare the difference at an end. However the people do not always accept the survey if a satisfactory solutions for their trials can be arrived at by means of diplomacy.
A stated salary does not accompany the position of county surveyor but rather the men receive their compensation by means of fees assigned to the work that is done.

Manager Lansdon will be in the car that will be reserved for the team and will have a number of tickets to the game for sale.

JUNIOR PROM
A GREAT SUCCESS
(Continued from page one.)
given out by George Stuckey and Leota McFarlin, and Frank Davis and Katherine Dolman.
Refreshments for the faculty members present were served at the beginning of the third dance and the refreshments for the others were served from the eighth to the eighteenth dances. The special feature of the "eats" this year was the good service and the absence of any crowding at the time of serving.
The decorations were not elaborate. Red and blue lighting effects overhead and the Junior and Senior class numerals in colored electric lights on the sides of the hall. The decorations were simple and in excellent taste. As last year the musicians were in the center of the floor on a vine covered pavilion. Kelly's nine piece orchestra furnished the music and their seeming dislike to play encores was the only possible fault that could be found with the entire prom. At 2:30 a.m. the last dance was played and the Junior Prom for 1911 was over.
A PLEASING RECITAL
Miss Barrett and Miss Hardcastle Entertain Large Audience.
"Sandalphon" was one of the most interesting selections of the evening and in its rendition Miss Hardcastle displayed great powers of sympathy. One of the catchy numbers of the program was the reading by Miss Hardcastle of George Fitch's famous story of "The Funeral that Flashed in the Pan."
Before the largest crowd that has ever attended a student recital, Lucile Barrett and Cornelia Hardcastle, of the department of expression of the school of Fine Arts, gave an extremely interesting recital in Fraser Hall last Tuesday evening. Both of the young ladies showed great ability to adapt themselves to the mood and spirit of a varied program. In the reading from the Pickwick Papers Miss Barrettshowed great versatility in dialogue, while she probably showed the best powers of interpretation in Kipling's "The Ballad of the East and West."
Mrs Blanche Lyons, soprano, assisted the young ladies in the program and sang two numbers which were well received. Miss Louise Wiedmann played a pleasing accompaniment to the reading of "Sandalphon."
Programs were given out by Frances Banker and the ushers were Tess Critchfield, Grace O'Neil, Lucile Wilkinson, and Alice Houston.
LEADS STRENUOUS LIFE.
Prof. C. Zueblin a Real Live Wire.
As a high pressure, six-cylinder talker, Professor Charles Zueblin, who has been delivering a series of lectures on the modern city this week, has never been surpassed by any lecturer at the University. He starts out on the high speed and never misses an explosion. The witty allusion, the telling phrase, all leap to his lips at lightning speed. There is no hesitating, no waste of time seeking for just the right word or phrase when Professor Zueblin talks. If there were a speed limit in language he would exceed it every minute of his hour's talk. At the close the audience is left rather breathless, as if it had just finished a cross country run.
It is not only when he is lecturing that Professor Zueblin energizes. Besides his six addresses at the University this week he spoke twice at Kansas City. He spent each forenoon in Kansas City investigating conditions there, and he told a reporter for The Kansan that he was finding time to write a little, too.
Besides his lectures, Prof. Charles Zueblin brought with him to the University, his golf clubs, and he has been playing on the golf links every day this week. When a great student takes up the game of golf, everyone says he never will be anything but a "dub" at the game. But it is not so with the famous lecturer. His best score over the nine hole course is 41. This is one stroke more than bogie, and considering the condition of the grounds is a remarkable showing, especially as the university links are entirely new to Prof. Zueblin.
When Zueblin made his 41, he established a score which had never before been equalled at the university.
