Nvhrasha Fraternities Take First Step
in Friendly
Will Make Weekly Visits Between
Chapters to Promote Good
Fellowship
In an effort to promote friendliness
between the twenty-one fraternities
represented at the University of Ne
braska and to eliminate the competi
tion and bitterness that has at times
been noticeable between Greek organi
zations, the fraternities themselves
have undertaken a plan of exchang
ing guests one night each week, for
the express purpose of making new
acquaintances and learning first hand
the good points in each of their fel
low organizations.
This plan was introduced following
discussion of the relations between
Nebraska fraternities at a meeting
where most of the organizations were
represented, held this past week at
the Delta Tau Delta house. The
Dresent plan calls for an exchange of
one guest each Tuesday evening dur
ing the c611ege year, that guest to be
entertained at dinner at a chosen
chapter house and to spend the early
Dart of the evening there meeting the
men and exchanging ideas and plans.
It Is hoped that the plan will do
much to improve the relations db
tween the organizations and that it
will help in making the entire frater
nity college world more democratic
and less selfish. Unless every organi
zation accepts the plan and assists in
lurrying out the program by receiv

Recause students have been forced

In order to get a bite to eat at noon
and In the evening, steps are being
taken by university authorities to es
tablish another cafeteria. The con
gestion of all eating places In the city
of Lincoln has become a serious
question to the student. The cafeter
ias in the Temple and at the state
farm are overcrowded every day, and
private lunch rooms and cafeterias
are almost Inaccessible, due to the
fact that students must remain In
line nearly their whole lunch period
under present conditions.
The old banquet room in the base
ment of the Temple will be convened
by the university Into a large cafe
teria. Chancellor Avery has consulc
ed with the regents in regard to the
plan and they were heartily in favor
of this action. Facilities will be pro
vided soon, whereby the university
will be able to feed twice as many
students as they can accommodate
undre present conditions.
The temporary partitions in the
basement of the Temple building will
be torn down, and the entire basement
wil be renovated and .redecorated.
Part of the rooms of the old Tempfe
High School will be converted into
club rooms for the men of the univer
sity faculty. The new cafeteria will
occupy the room formerly known as
the Temple banquet hall.
The chancellor says, "We hope that
with an increased volume of business
tliat wil naturally follow, we can low
er the prices to the students, unless
prices have a distinctly upward tend
ency." It may be said here, that even
now the prices of articles of food at
the university cafeteria are lower than
at many other schools. Students will

While no line will be drawn be

girls to serve themselves more quick

The small number of subscriptions

to the College Comic is manifested
by the students of Nebraska. After

troubles that have been too often
noticed between organizations during
rush week and while working for vari

It is the first time that any plan
calling for such general mixing of fra
ternity men and ideas and ideals has
been attempted at Nebraska. The
ones responsible for the inovcation
hope to see the exchange begin next
Tuesday and continue through the en

custom at Nebraska. It is supposed
that the inter-fraternity council while
not sponsor for the plan, will consider
it favorably and may be expected to
endorse the exchange at its next meet
ing.
Feeling between various organiza

that it developed into a near feud.
Fraternities in years past both in old
er colleges and at Nebraska it is
claimed have used almost any means
to ridicule their fellow organizations
without realizing that in so doing
they were injuring the entire fratern

much as their competitor's interests.
It is an. effort to apply the spirit of
fraternity to the entire group of organizations.

WAR SOUVENIR FROM I
PARIS UNIVERSITY
L'TJniversite de Paris Sends Ne
braska University Memoir of
Part in World War
L'Universite de Paris has sent to
the University of Nebraska a beauti
ful bronze medal significant of Ne
braska's part in the world war. It
was received by the Chancellor es
terday and a French letter from the
vice-rector and president of the coun
cil of the University of Paris, accom
panied the gift.
The medal, quite large and hand
somely engraved, is a souvenir of the
European war. Duplicates have been
sent to the more prominent universi
ties of the allied countries, and sever
al have been received by college in
the United States.
The vice-rector in his letter to
Chancellor Avery wrote that the Uni
versify of Paris has given this medal
to the allied universities as a souven
ir representing science, in the servtte
of right. It recalls the services ren
dered by the teachers and students
both on the fields of battle, and in
the silence of the office or the laboia
tory. The words covering the face of
the gift are: "science, freedom and
instrument of Justice." This insaip
tion tells the story of a delivered hu
maniiy in six simple words.
The president of the council at
Paris also stated that the University
of Paris decided to offer a replica or
this medal to each of the universities
of the allied countries, and because ot
the many colleges in this country only
a few of the larger institutions re
ceived the medal. The vice-rector
thanked the University of Nebraska
for the brilliant part which her profces
sors and students have taken in the
common victory and he said that
France prays that America and the
Universities of the United States V 111
consider this medal as a testimonial
of the fraternal friendship of that
country.
Members of the university faculty,
students, and especially men who
were formerly in the service are in
vited to stop in the office of the chan
cellor and examine the medal. Ii Is
enclosed in a case, faced in blue, with
the inscription: "L'Universite de Par
is a L'Universite de Nebraska." The
medal will ultimately be placed In
the university museum where it will
be preserved.

The Cornhuskers await with confi

The probable Nebraska lineup for

Kelogg rich! end.
Hubka right tackle.
Young right guard.
Day or Munn center.
W. Munn left guard.
Lyman left tackle.
Swanson left end.
McGla sson quart er.
Dobson (C) right half.
Schellenberger or Howarth left
half.
Dale fullback.
It Notre Dame's all-powerful back
field fails to carry t ball over Ne
braska's goal line, then George Gipp,
renowned Hoosier, will promptly
seize his ninety horse power boot and
register a dozen field goals. This
augers bad for Comhusker hopes.
But if the following press notices
from Chicago papers are true, there
is no small quantity of danger from
this direction.
Notre Dame, Ind., Oct. 15 "With
the backfield showing all kinds of
speed, with the regular line refusing
to yield a single down, and with the
squad in fair physical condition, N.
D. coaches are anything but dis
couraged over prospects of victory
in the tilt with the Cornhuskers Sat
urday. Gipp's toe is expected to play
a prominent part in the Hosster
score. The big boot artist devoted
considerable time to booting the
oval across the bar from difficult
angles. He registered several pretty
drop kicks fro mthe forty-eight yard
line. Coach Rockne shifted Captain
Behan from quarter to half and gave
the engineer's station." Chicago Tri
bune. Notre Daino, ind.. Oct. 15. "De
pendent upon the speed of a last
backfield, the aggressiveness of a
light line, the accuracy of George
Gipp in scoring field goals, the N. D.
squad is prepared for the invasion
of Nebraska. The latter element in
locals' attack against the Cornhusk
ers may be a prime factor in the re
sults. Gipp hoisted the oval across
the bars from forty-eight yard line
tnrinv with no mean degree of accu
racy. The t-ai will leave for Lin
coln Thursday." Chicago Herald &
Examiner
The above clippings are good evi
dence of Notre Dame's confidence.
Coach Schulte realizes that Gipp is a
wizard in the kicking department
and is devoting considerable time to
drilling the line in blocking attempted
field goals. The man who can boot
accurate drop kicks at difficult angws
from the forty-eight yard line will be
a potent factor in any gam.-.
Nebraska must race a team well
skilled in every phase and tactic of
the gridiron game. It will be the
toughest proposition the Huskers
have tackled yet and victory is by
no means a certainty. The idea Is
prevalent thn the Cornhuskers have
the Indiana team greatly outweighed,
but this not the case. The Notre Dame
line averages 174 pounds, the back
field 162 pounds and the entire team
170 pounds. The average weight or
the Nebraska Is slightly less than
180 pounds so the Cornhuskers have
no great advantage In beef over the
Hoosiers.
