TURN OUT FRIDAY NIGHT Nebraska's basketball team will be opposed Friday night by the quintet that has boon picked by Or. Stewart as the Uornhuskers' most dangerous rival for second place in the Valley. At the pres ent time, Missouri has unquestionably the strongest aggregation in the Missouri Valley conference, and for Nebraka to overtake the already firm lead of this team, would mean that no more games could be lost for the remainder of the season. Nebraska's aim. then, is to become securely entrenched in the second place posi tion. The battle for this position will no doubt be with Washing ton University. Washington lost its first two games this season. These defeats, however, were at the hand of Misouri. and the remaining teams on the St. Ixmis five's schedule will be more easily disposed of. Rutherford is bringing with his team, several Missouri Valley stars. Both Marquerd and Stapleton are veterans with long service rec ords to their credit. Iast year, the former was unanimously chosen for all Missouri Valley center. These Tacts go to prove that the game Friday night will be one of Nebraska's hardest battles. If Ne braska is able to win both games, she will have a good chance to take the lead over Washingion in the race, and put the clamps on second place. Friday has been declared a "closed night." and as there will be no other social functions, the Armory should be packed. It will be a treat to see an enthusiastic delegation at a basketball game once more. The game is planned for a great pep stimulant, and if a new gymnasium can not be obtained in any other way, perhaps, the volume and swell of the cheering on Friday night, and the over flow of Oornhusker spirit that is expected, will burst the walls from the foundation, and raise the roof from its staves so that no more remembrance may be had of such a disgrace to the University as stands at the "S" street entrance to the campus. There can be no excuses for non-attendance Friday night, so why not pack the old Armory to ihe rafters? 5 Aw - i ill : ill mU . M if . C - -. .

Has anyone heard recent liding as to the probable date of publication of the Directories? We are certain that no such rumors nave reached vis. Some lime ago it was reported that the Direct ories would be placed on sale sometime before the end of the first semester if students would only register their names at certain places about the campus. Vain hope. Such registration was carried out as requested, but WHERE ARE THE DIRECTORIES? If they do not make their appearance before long, we might as well give up hoping, and content, ourselves with the happy thought that we can have all nr-xt summer to scan its pages. to surpass the talent or the Dramatic oluh players.
