Statistics Given Out
On Subscriptions to
Comhusker Stadium
Tony ,-r cent more men than
omr-n subscribed to the stadium
fund tiy a rough count of the college
rolls of stadium subscriptions. Be
tween tli.- 2.203 men and the 1.576
women listed, there Is a difference
of f,27. if we take the number of
men to he 100 per cent, the women
are 71.5 per cent. Again, of the
total number subscribing 3,779 the
men formed 58.3 per cent and the
women 41.7 per cent.
Counts of the different colleges give
results varying enormously from the
avfrngi, because of the varying regis
tration. For instance, one women
as found in the College of Law
list and two In that of the College
f Engineering, while the list of the
College of Arts and Sciences shows
S1 men and 742 women.
About eight per cent of the total
Mbsrriptlon was mae in two-unit
Hocks. Eight-tenths cf one per cent
as in one and one-balf-unit blocks;
four-tenths of one per cent In four
onit blocks, and eight hundredths of
one per cent In six-unit blocks.
Taking the College of Arts and
Sciences to be representative of the
'ze of subscriptions, these figures
re borne out. Of the total of L20S,
frn ;,nd one-half-unit blocks were
listed; ninety-five two-unit blocks;
eighteen three-unit blocks; five four
"nlt blocks; three five-unit blocks,
id one six-unit block.
The College of Arts and Sciences,
the larges; "ie in the University, has
4 registration cf women close to the
1.000 figure. Although the college
aaie the 100 per cent mark, only
2 women are listed at present at
tte alumni office. In the Teachers'
College, with seventeen men and 468
omen subscribing the quota assigned
not reached.

Thanksgiving Banquet
To Be Held at Grand
Tonight for Students
For those who have planned no
Thanksgiving dinner in the evening,
a banquet will be held tonight at the.
Grand hotel, Twelfth and Q streets.
Under the direction of the Y. M. C.
A. and the Y. W. C. A. this dinper
is given for students and their friends.
It fills a distinct need, for most out-of-town
students will not be able to
get home, and the Temple cafeteria
is to be closed all day.
Feeling that most of the students
would have plans made for the noon
meal, the committee decided to make
it an evening affair, and set 6 o'clock
as the time. A joint committee from
the two Christian Associations has
arranged for music; gam.s will oc
cupy the rest of the evening.

Nebraska Spirit Hits High Mark in
Rally Last Night "Corncobs Help
Three thousand cheering and how
ling students watched by hundreds of
townsfolk paraded through the streets
to the Lincoln hotel last evening to
welcome the "Fightin' Irish" from
Notre Dame. The rally which pre
ceded the parade and the welcome
were the greatest in the history of
Nebraska university and came as
the culmination of a week of singing
and spirit-building such as has never
before been seen in the school of
the Scarlet and the Cream.
Torches and red lights flared for a
distance of over a mile as the Com
husker boosters showed to the Notre
Dame team and hundreds of visitors
in the city for the Thanksgiving
battle their determination to have re

"Frontiers of Physical Sciences'
Is Title of Address Given to
Freshmen Lecture
"We are not concerned with things
physically useful, but we are seeking
on the frontiers of the sciences, the
truth," declared Prof. H. G. Deming
in a lecture on "The Frontiers 6f the
Physical Sciences," delivered to the
freshmen of the College of Arts and
Sciences, Monday evening and Tues
day morning. Professor Deming's lec
ture dealt with the smallest particles
of matter, atoms and electrons.
The professor explained that scien
tists, through studying radium, had
di.ieevered that atoms decompose to
form new atoms. Within the last
year, according to the professor, it
has been found possible to convert
tungsten into a different clement,
helium, by means of a lightening dis
charge. Professor Deming declared
that this discovery meant that It
night be possible sometime to trans
form one element such as lead Into
an entirely different clement, such as
gold. In such a transformation the
energy released would be more valu
able than the gold produced.
Professor Deming declared that
atoms were too small io be seen with
the miscroscope and that a molecule
or a group of atoms, would have to be
magnified a million times to make a

and the famous Knute Rockne, coach
of the Irish, responded to the wel
come of the student body and the
Notre Dame team members were in
troduced one by one as a howl of
welcome to each was extended.
At the Armory, Nebraska's fighting
Comhusker team was introduced and
long and rousing cheers were given
for the men who play for the last
time today on the gridiron. Captain
Hartley and Coach Schulte talked,
urging the students to fight for the
team from whistle to whistle and to
uphold the finest traditions of Ne
braska sportsmanship.
"This is the greatest football rally
I have ever seen," said Coach Rockne
of Notre Dame In speaking to the
thousands who had inarched to the
hotel where the visiting team waa

tories for Notre Dame, two victories
for Nebraska, and one tie contest.
The game will be attended by 13,000
persons, the largest crowd that has
ever witnessed a football game at Ne
braska. Among notables who will at
tend the game is Gt nefal John Per
shing, who will be escorted across the
field before the game begins at 2
o'clock. The University band will
play, while the Corncolis will put on
a stunt between the halves of the
fray.
Dope on Game.
Acording to the dope that has gone
the rounds, Notre Dame is the favor
ite by a sixx-to-five odd margin, for
a careful analysis of the two elevens
shows that if the odds are not even,
any advantage that exists is in favor
of the Huskers. for in their lineup is
contained more football ability and
physical power than on any other
team in the country. The Catholic
team, however, is the best-coached
team in the country, and has the rep
utation for being the hardest-fighting
aggregation ever witnessed on a grid
iron. The game will be a contest be
tween beef and speed, on one hand,
and science and skill on the other.
The Nebraska team will outweigh the
Irish nineteen pounds to the man,
and has a fast, hard-hitting back
field. As against these advantages
possessed by the Scarlet and Cream
machine, Knute Rockne's crew has a
wonderful assortment of trick plays
and forward passes. The South
Bend team is an exponent of clever
football, while Nebraska plays almost
uninterrupted straight football.
If the Nebraska team fights as
Notre Dame will fight, the Huskers
will win. The Huskc-r team has the
line-smashing power to drive to one
or more touchdowns, and if they cad
smother the attempts of the Irish to
work trick passes and passes, the
Cornhuskers will win.
Regardless of who wins, the game
will stand out in the annals of Ne
braska grid history, and the thou
sands of spectators who will witness
this last game played on Nebraska
Field, will watch a brand of football
unexcelled by the greatest teams in
the country.
Sine Nebraska griiiron stars will
fight for the old Scarlet and Cream
for the last time vhen Nebraska
meets Notre Dame this afternoon.
The men who are i laying for the
last time today are Captain "I'Mck
Hartley, Adolph Wenke. Raymond
Weller. Leo Scherer. Andrew ehoep

Thanksgiving Day of 1922
Will Live for a Long Time
In Memories of Huskers
What holiday of our whole school
year will be quite as thrilling and
exciting as Thanksgiving? A whole
day of freedom in the middle of the
week, with the best game of the sea
son, wonderful "eats," old friends and
relatives coming from great distances
to see us and five open tights right
in succession. Really, this seems a
phenomenon almost too good to be
true, but perhaps dear old Nebraska
realizes that her poor over-worked stu
dents need one day of play. For
months and months we have waited,
none too patiently, for this day, and
our enthusiasm and "pep" have all
been saved for the great occasion.
Won't It be just perfect, with the
fnAiHinoi (nricT dinner first and
Notre1 Dame to bring on the thrills for
the rest of the day?
"i
