BOY VISITOR AT PARTY Much Excitement Caused by Hit Un invited PresenceWas Not Detected MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1915 t. ; f- n tn imagine a more appropriate ending of the football season than was the Cornhusker banquet. More than four hundred red corpuscled Huskers made plain that Nebraska spirit is developing rather than, as some few say, declining. The collection taken up at the banquet Friday evening in order to buy "Jack" Best a comfortable chair was a commendable move but why not go a step further and start a movement to secure a pension for this aged loyal Nebraskan? Our opinion is that such a fund could almost be provided among the football alumni. Now that the football season has formally ended, why not turn our attention to the next important student activity the Nebraska Kansas debate? "Kind words produce their own image in men's souls; and a beautiful image it is. They soothe and quiet and comfort the j hearer. They shame him out of his sour, morose, unkindly ieelings. We have not yet begun to use kind words in such abundance as they ought to be used." EXCHANGES Although having been at West Point only a little more than a year, E. Q. Oliphant has already made four letters in athletics at that place. Base ball, basketball, football and holding an Academy record were the means of securing the letters. The record was made in track, the 220 yard hurdles being covered In 25 seconds, four-fifths of a second faster than the 1909 rec ord. Oliphant Is the first cadet to have the distinction of winning four letters. There is a small number of three "A" men but the former Pur due star and four "P" man Is the first four "A", man that West Point has had. Scholastlcally, Oliphant ranks in the order of general merit as one of thirty-seven out one hundred and eight-four cadets in his class. He holds three hundred and forty out of a possible four hundred and forty proportional parts. Purdue Exponent. The Collegiate Anti-Military league formed recently by eastern college stu dents to oppose such organization as the National Security league and American Legion, Is sending out let ters to the editors of college dailies to find out their attitude toward stu dent military camps, military drill, and letcures on military tactics, and so to discover the spirit of militarism among college men. The letters read in part: "An agitation for military service has been started by the National Se curity league. It Is our belief that ouch movement is unnecessary and to the highest degree vicious. Its advo cates may declare that they are op posed to militarism, yet they are really fostering its spread. The pro posal strikes at college men very close to home. We desire to get your opin ion on this subject as we wish to pub lish a symposium of student opinion on military camps, drills and lec tures." The league intends to obtain an ac tual poll of the students themselves, so It is sending blanks for thi3 pur pose to four hundred colleges, includ ing every state In the union. Each In stitution will also be provided with a list of questions tj be submitted to each student. Minnesota Daily.

Maulbetsch Is an Ann Arbor boy and former Btar of the local high school. While he is the lighest man on the regular squad, he played left half back, which goes to show that weight does not necessarily make a football player. Michigan. Ignoring the announcement that only girls would be admitted and risk ing the "displeasure of Dean Mary Graham and the wrath of five hun dred of Nebraska's fair co-eds, George D Ford, a Sophomore, attired him self as a demure maiden, slipped into the Girls' Cornhusker party, Friday night, and enjeyed the entertainment wholly unsusplcioned by the girls. Mr. De Ford in relating his exper iences Is said to have told friends who aided him in costuming for the part that what he saw was well worth the tax levied on each of the girls attending the party. Among the entertainment features, unwittingly provided for Mr. De Ford were: Football girl in regulation football garb In a football game, Charlie Chap lin galore, George Washington, Peck's bad boy, Gold-dust' twins, Jesters, cir cus ladles and even firecrackers with a plentiful sprinkling of Just plain "men," and numerous small girls with short dresses. Mr. De Ford wore a regulation "mid dy" with a short pleated skirt. A big red tam o'shanter worn, close about the face and a braid of long light hair aided his disguise, which was completed by a pair of girls' shoes and a lavallere. The fact that sev eral girls wore "sailor suits" and were attended by "Jackies" enabled him in escaping detection. Mr. De Ford who was in company with a very "small boy" throughout the evening, didn't seem to be having a very good time, but wandered about without even a smile on his face which was not sus pected of not belonging to a co-ed. It is suspected that he was not as mournful as he seemed. One thing which may have added to Mr. De Ford's low spirits was a pantomime, "In Shadow-land," depict ing the fate of a man who met. a young lady by a riverside on a sum mer day. His protestations of undy ing love were untrue, and a group of girls who sang his perfidy, in the last verse, consigned him to "eter nal frying" with much hissing. His grief, if such it was, may also have been due to the appearance of several students as rotund farmers and their wives and to a number of pajama misses who were charming in the attire introduced in public by a popular actress, and by the way in which the gentle members of the fair sex were able to walk all over each other in approved masculine style during the big game. Some of the girls are wondering with breathless anxiety by which door Mr. De Ford entered. Missouri showed a remarkable come back spirit In the Missouri-Kansas game Thanksgiving day, when she lost to Kansas by the close margin of 6 to 8 .
