Green sweaters' on a sawdust field. Verily, these are strange
times and students at the University of Nebraska are about to wit
ness Strang things. For years past the Comhuskers have been
accustomed to appear upon the football field clad in scarlet or crimson
sweaters. Sometimes stripes' of white in varying numbers and
widths adorned the football garb. Until a year or so ago, home
games were played upon the grassy turf of Nebraska field. Now
:omes the announcement that the Huskers will trot upon a sawdust
jovered Nebraska field next Saturday clad in green jerseys. They
tell us that green is a more prpportionate color, that it does not
iib'tort the size of a football player and make him appear larger
than he really it. At that it comes as an innovation, a shock to the
sensibilities of those who have been accustomed to cheering for the
Scarlet and the Cream. As to Nebraska field. It lost all traces of
egetation several years ago and the sawdust will be used to cover
jp the mud and make a softer lighting place. Perhaps the green
jerseys will make up for the lack of color on a field where the grass
has refused to grow.
NOTRE DAME IS COMING
They are coming the blue and gold sweaters we have seen four
times before on Nebraska field, the sweaters that have always made
us tingle with respectful fear when we saw them play. Twice the
Scarlet and Cream has emerged victorious from the fray, once the
visitors were triumphant and again the game came out a tie. Notre
Dame will be here next Saturday with its characteristic speedy
backfield and its mammoth line which has always spelled danger
for Nebraska.
It is the first game of the season at home and a crowd of thous
ands is looked for on Nebraska field on the opening day. Close to
two thousand students will have reservations in the south stands in
a section which stretches from one twenty-yard line to the other.
Massed in the center will be two sections of Nebraska co-eds, a
bright spot in the midst of hundreds of Nebraska men who will be
grouped about them on either side. Little room will be left for out
siders when students who have bought season tickets fill tier upon
tier in the tJouth bleachers. It will be a throng solidly back of the
team, bursting with pent-up enthusiasm to break forth in hearty
cheers.
Notre Dame has a team which will, perhaps, give the Huskers
the hardest fight of the year. Nebraska has the latent power to de
feat the Hoosiers. Notre Dame knows it; we all know it. Next
Saturday will put it to the test, and will determine whether fight,
grit and student backing can bring it out.
FORGET
Students of the University have a peculiar opportunity which
other citizens throughout the state, as a rule do not have, namely
that of hearing rea lart as interpreted by America's leading artists.
Our fathers seemed to have time to study and learn to appreci
ate the finer literature and art; good music was a part of their lives,
but we art. too busy. It is time for us' to stop a moment and take
time to cultivate the classics. It is getting so students actually dis
like so-called "high-brow" music, Jazz, jazz, jazz is all we hear. We
need something better. Every student at the university can acord
both time and money to attend the occasional treats we have, even
if it means the safrifice of a dance or two.
As members' of this state institution we are this year particular
ly fortunate, and it behooves us to appreciate our blessings and take
advtange of them. The Daily Kansas.

A FRESH FRESHMAN
Lawrence. Kansas. Raymond P.
Henze, a freshman at the University
or Kansas now wears the little blue
cap. after an exciting chase thru r las
er Hall to the Chancellor's ofnce
and a ducking in the lake.
Freshmen and upperclassmen
joined in a chase arming themselves
with niirlillps Prior to the chase
Hende would not wear the cap and
it was determined by the upperclass-
men that he would. After a search
he was discovered on the roof of the
Fraser building armed with a piece
of gas pipe two feet in length . A
group of freshmen succeeded in driv
ing him from the roof.
He succeeded in leaving the build
ing but reentered by way of the win
dows and several times leaped frjm
one ledge to another while the crowd
below held its breath. He was finally
driven to the top of one of the ventila
tors where he held the crowd at
bay.
Alter an interference on the part
of the University employees ou ac
count of damaging University proper
ty Henze escaped and took refuge in
the chancellor's office. After a con
ference with the chancelor he ap
peared at the window. "Well, men,"
he said, "I have decided to wear the
cap. However he did not escape pun
ishment and- was rushed to a lake
where a ducking was administered to
him. On his way home that night h
said, "Well, I gave you something to
talk about anyway."
SIZE AGAINST THEM
When the returning troops of the
29th division were received with ac
claim in the streets of their own Bal
timore, one 4-year-old daughter of
that community was not only im
pressed but puzzled.
"Where have they been?" she won
dered. "Iin France."
"And what were they doing th"-e?"
Fighting, my dear."
There was a long pause, during
which she shook her head disapprov
ingly. "Well." she said finally, "they look
to me like pretty big boys to fight."
