DEMANDS YOUR
FULL SUPPORT
Students Cannot Afford to Fall
Down Now on Gigantic
Campaign.
NO EXCUSE FOR FAILURE
Standing of University Will
Be Lowered If CornLwskers
Fail This Week.
What will your diploma be worth 1
'uu came to the University of Na
braska WHY? Why did you not pick
a eolege of two hundred students with
facililh's one tenth those of Nebraska
WHY?
localise you knew that a diploma
Irani llie University of Nobrask
would admit you to opportunities you
timid nut hope to secure wiih oni
i rum a small institution. Boci.use
you wanted to capitalize ycur cduca
lion at Nebraska JhkI kicie..se join
earning powi r and prestige.
The value of your diploma from the
I nivi r.-iiy of Nebraska wiiT depend
entirely on the rating of the I'imrr
siiy of Nebraska at the time you visa
to t.se your diploma. If the student
body o!' your University has a reputa
tion for failures you may discount the
aiue ef your diploma by that amount.
A.iy failure of the student body or
Alumni of the University of Nebraska
to support a project for the welfare
ami gruwth of the University will ac
tually decrease jour prospect for se
curing a good position in competition
Willi graduates of institutions which
have a public reputation for doing
- tilings.
Tim failure of the University of Ne
braska to build this stadium will ac
tually tost you more in earning power
than you will subscribe. The value
"f your diploma depends entirely on
what you make of your University
life you are going to be in cenipeii
tion with students from institutions
which have -a record of accomplish
ment. Your diploma is valueless utiles.;
you can be proud of the institution
which grants it. Yen cannot possibly
bo proud of your University unless
she maintains her reputations among
other Universites and colleges.
Are you gong to be ashamed to
show your diploma?
Will There Be a Stadium.
Y'ou may take it for an absolute
fact that there will not be a stadium
:it the University of Nebraska unless
Nebraska's student body awakens. Ne
braska will never have a stadium un
less five thousand students and not
twenty-two hundred build it.
Unless Nebraska's student body
raises in subscriptions ninety thou
sand dollars there will be no stadium.
Do not fool yourself that the Alumni
or somebody else are going to build
it. The Alumni will do their sharis
but they will not do yours. The
Alutnnl wil raise three hundred
twenty thousand dolars If you rais3
your quota of'nlnety thousand.
Is One Unit Enough for You?
Must Nebraska go -without a sta
dium? Do you realize that a failure
of this student campaign will mean
no stadium for Nebraska?
In other words if you knew that we
were to have "NO STADIUM'' if we
do no raise ninety thousand dollars
among ourselves could you not And a
way of raising your- pledge whatever
it is?
The quota of ninety thousand dol
lars for the students is but half
reached and the campaign half over.
We cannot, we must not fall! The
whole country would echo with it!
Kansas in a day pledged twice what
we have in a week.

STUNTS FOB FUTURE
Will Fill Up Membership and
Launch Campaign of Enter
tainment for Season.
The Corncobs tire planning many
worthy and entertaining stunts for
ibe remaining football games, also for
t'.ie basketball and baseball games
lafer in the year. At a meeting Tues
day evening at the Sigma Chi house
t was decided that each fraternity
should send two men to represent it
at another important special meeting
o? the Corncob organization Thurs
day lr'ght at the Sigma Chi house.
Vl-e organization will also pick one
rcn-fraternity man from each college.
The Corncobs were organized last
year as an effective way of maintain
ing pep at football games, after a
delegation accompanying the Oklaho
ma team had demonstrated what such
.v. organization can do. They ap
peared at all the latter games last
year.
At the meeting Tuesday a niem
iiei of '.he Student Council appeared
and urged the men to make their or
ganization permanent. Favorable ac
tion on this suggestion was taken and
it is probable that the Corncobs will
be on hand to function at all import
ant athletic events in the future. The
men will appear on the field Satur
day and in the downtown parade pre
ceding the game, wearing their white
trousers, red sweaters, and skull caps,
also smoking the conventional corn
cob pipes.
F.acb fraternity is especially utged
to have two men present at the meet
ing Thursday night at the Sigma Chi
house. The meeting will be held
promptly at six-thirty.

event, counting twenty-five points.

STADIUM EDITION SATURDAY.
The Daily Nebraskan will pub
,.sh a special Stadium edition Sat
urday morning which W'H contain
a list of Nebraska students who
have subscribed to the Starfi-im
Builders' fund and will print a
large picture of the proposed stad
ium. The Alumni association will
distribuM the sadium n-imber tc
the" alumni at the Homecoming
game with Missouri Saturday. An
nouncements of the Olympics,
Girls' Cornhusker Luncheon, and
the Homecoming All-University
party will all go to make the Sat
urday issue one of the most in
teresting of the year.
After the Stadium issue, no more
papers will be put out until Tues
day morning, at this issue will
take the place ef the Friday and
Sunday editions.
Dark and gloomy was the Stadium
campaign piospect as it loomed late
Wednesday evening. With three days
of the campaign already paused the
filial total of SitU.UOO was t-till far
from reached. The days in which
the campaign should have shown the
biggest leaps brought little more than
llie halfway mark passed.
There are two weak points which
are very noticeable in the Stadium
r,.ce. The first is the failure of the
stud -nts who can easily afford to give
five, six, or even ten units of J25
vacf.i to come across with more than
one unit and sometimes to even fail
n that. The other weakness is the
..pp'ir.-at lack of the girls of the Unl-
ersi: yto realize the seriousnes ot
the Stadium campaign.
Co-eds Very Lax.
Tiie co-eds were noticeably lax In
responding tho the Stadium call the
first three days of the campaign. The
hole made by their failure to re
spond is easily traced. The Teach
-!! College, mad. up mostly of girls,
and the Fine Arts College, also made
up of a vast inajoiity of co-eds, were
far from threatening their quotas.
An instance of gross lack of spirit
was reported to Stadium headquarters
Wednesday evening. At a house where
H i g,':ls are rooming not a pledge
button is liein gniirn. The girls have
pledged themselves not to support the
Stadium.
Least Able First Pledgers.
A peculiar fact in regard to the
pledges has been brought out in the
1. 1. -creation that the students least
abl.' to make the pledges, those who
are working their own way through
-i hind, tln.se who have the hardest
time to gatiier the money, are the
i :es who have already made theit
pledges. The students who spend
much mono.?, who have little worry
as to their school expenses, are the
ones who are holding off. Included
in this group are students who can
afford easily to make pledges of $100;
?1.1u, Sieij and moie. and who are "get
ing by" as they call it. by pledging
but $2T.
Another shameful thing which has
been noted in the first three days ot
the campaign is the fact that students
have in some .way acquired Stadium
Builder buttons without making any
pledges. How they got theai is not
known, but committeemen have re
;.c. He, l ir.Maneo alter instance of men
who have not made piodg'") hut who
are spo: t it"-' the protection buttons.
Mere Frats 100 Per Cent
Three more fraternities and one
more sor.'-rity had ctilerid the 10Q per
cent list by t'i I'liie.-ilay evening. The
new organizations with 10 per cent
pledging were eina Thela Fi, Bush
noil (iuild. i'i Kappa I'hi and Delta
Camma. This brings the list of the
liiu per cent frtuernitiis to twenty
two ami tiie list of led l'er cent sorori
ties to four.
The Glee club Fednesday fell into
line for li per cent. Not only in
the individual ph-dgiugs had the Glee
club passed the top, but as an or
ganizatien ?10H was pledged.
Must Raise the Goal.
The students must raise the $90,000"
or Nebraska w ill not have a Memorial
Stadium. That is certain. Just so
much as the students fall short ot
their quota will the alumni of the Uni
versity fall short of their quota. It
the student quota is not raised, alumni
committeemen say that the alumni
campaign wili not even be started.
Pictures of the new Nebraska Stad
ium have been printed throughout the
entire country. The entire school is
looking toward Nebraska to step into
line with the twenty-six other univer
sities which have since the war raised
money for stadiums. Should the strf
dents fail. Nebraska in future will be
rightfully branded as a school without
spirit
