SUFFRAGE QUESTION
HEAR THE CLIMAX
All Sentiment Seems in Favor of the
Bill Expected That the Co-eds
Will Herd the Votes Around.
The fight for woman suffrage is fast
coming to a climax and tlKre are noth
ing but predictions of success to be
heard from the feminine sex. Univer
sity women seem to be- almost unani
mously in favor of equal suffrage. Sev
eral lady members of the faculty have
b;en conspicuous in the campaign and
their efforts have, no doubt, influenced
many of our young men to come to
the conclusion that women are their
equal and should be granted equal
rights. Tuesday will be a great day
and instead of seeing university men
leading young ladies to the polls, as
they do at our university elections, no
one need be surprised to see the co-eds
hurrying from building to building,
locating voters, and taking them away
in automobiles to the polls.
EVEHT FINALLY GOES
TO SOPHOMORE CLASS
Committee Decided in Favor of Upper
Class After Long Discussions
Marathon Race Decided It.
The official score of the Olympics,
announced by Chairman Reese of the
Olympics committee yesterday after
noon is fi3-54, in favor of the Sopho
mores. It was semi-officially announced Sat
urday afternoon that the Fresh mn
had won. 42-39. This score was made
by giving each side ten points in the
class pole fight. When the matter was
taken up with the committee, they an
nounced after much deliberation, that
the Sophomores had the greatest num
ber of points. The result hinged upon
the marathon race. The announce
menl of the race was published in the
Daily Xtbraskan for three issues, and
was oosted on the bulletin board at
the gyui. The race was not announced
at the field, however. When the time
for the race came, only one freshman
appeared, and h was compelled to for
feit the race to the Sophomores, me
committee decided that the announce
ment had been frequent enough to hold
the Freshmen responsible for having
their representatives on hand.
The committee, composed of Zum-,
. inku iQt.M ami Reese, found the I
matter a very difficult one to decide,
i
but consider this the fairest settle-1
ment.
- "Miss Flibbit, the doctors say that
If a self-conscious person will hold
something it will help to overcome
that feeling."
"Perhaps the papers are right, Dr.
Flubbins. but I can not help you to
overcome your self-consciousness by
holding me. so please don't try it
again." Exchange. ,

fice of Dean Graham at 10 o'clock on
Saturday, October 31st, for the pur
pose of considering plans for all Uni
versity social functions.
Miss Graham says: "I am pleased
with the idea. It's a step in the right
direction."
Dr. Lucile Eaves says: "It seems
to me to be a move in the right direc
tion. Simple, informal gatherings.
when the enjoyment from good com
radeship and youthful gaiety would
have a more wholesome influence than
the expensive, formal dances. How
ever, it will require very careful man
agement to make a success of such
entertainments."
'
TO THE STUDENTS.
Xext Tuesday is election day,
and the University Location
Question will then go before the
voters for final consideration. In
order to be sure to settle the
question, it is necessary to get
every, vote that can possibly be
obtained.
In view of the fact that the
settlement of this question may
be lost by the absence of a few
votes. I appeal to you to drop
your home people a line before
election asking them to help get
out the vote on this important
measure for University welfare.

NEW CADET UNIFORMS
WILL ARRIVE TODAY
Have Been Shipped From Cincinnati
. Band and Officers Both to
Have New Regalia.
The new cadet and officer's uniforms
were shipped to Magee's yesterday by
the Pettibone Bros. Manufacturing Co.,
of Cincinnati. They will probably ar
rive today or tomorrow. The private
cadet uniforms will be shipped a few
days later.
The majority of tit? new uniforms
are made of sixteen ounce olive Jeffer
son, but a, few officers have ordered
the slightly better Olivauto drab
serge. Both the officers' and band uni
forms have laced riding breeches,
with canvas leggings for the band and
leather puttees for the officers.
The uniforms have been somewhat
slow in getting here, due to the fact
that Pettibone's are swamped with
orders for uniforms at this time of the
year.
CANTATA PLEASES
A URGE AUDIENCE
Temple Crowded to Hear the Cantata
"St. John's Eve" Audience Weil
Repaid For Attendance.
The Temple Theater was crowded
to standing room yesterday morning
for the presentation of the cantata,
"St. John's Eve." The audience was
composed not only of students, but a
number of people from the city were
present to hear the delightful story as
sung by the chorus. The theater had
been tastefully decorated for the oc
casion by members of the chorus, the
Hallowe'en emblems of witches and
cats being used with strands of yellow
and black crep? paper.
The cantata was an innovation in
the way of university musical enter
tainments. Xearly everyone of the one
one hundred and seventy taking part
was a student of the university.
The complete organization of the
chorus took place only a short time
ago and there was a very limited time
in which to prepare for so fine an en
tertainment. Mrs. Raymond has every
reason to be proud of her chorus, and
is highly pleased with the interest
shown by the members. It is also in
teresting to speculate upon the ques
tion of how fine a musical can be given
by the end of the year when it is re
numbered that this cantata was given
with short of a month's preparation.
The chorus will give a number of
other cantatas at some time in the
near future. One is being planned for
Christmas and by the beginning of
next year the study of old folk songs
will have been started. It Is certain
that with the support and Interest
manifested yesterday by the university
and city people, and with the ability
and enthusiasm of the chorus, that the
coming entertainments will not fall
short of the standard set by Thurs
day's cantata.
AMES TOMORROW
TEAM FROM OWA STATE COL
. LEGE ARRIVES TODAY.
QUARTERBACK MOSS IS STAR
A Hard Fought Game is Expected
When the Aggies Clash With the
Cornhuskers Tomorrow
The Line-ups.
By H. I. Kyle.
The "Fighting Cyclones" from Ames
have circulated into town, and will
spend the day in fasting and prayer,
preparatory to the big mix-up with the
Cornhuskers tomorrow.' The Aggies
have eight veterans on their team this
year, while the three new men are
all stars. Moss, at quarter being their
most dependable ground-gainer.
Last year's game at Ames resulted
in a score of 18 to 9 in favor of Xe
braska, all of Ames' points being made
in the first half, and before the Husk
ers had scored at all. The Aggies have
lost only one game this season, that
being Minnesota, while last week she
defeated Missouri by a score of 6 to
0. According to Joe Hoeffel, who saw
the game, Ames deserved a much
larger score, luck being against her.
Manager Guy Reed says the fans who
look for an easy victory for the Corn
huskers, are due for a big surprise,
tomorrow.
The Agpie lineup:
Packer, L. E.
