HUSKERS WILL BE
HANDICAPPED IN
GAME WITH AMES
Farmer. Play Ho. and
Have Seen Nebraska in
Action.
ABSENCE OF NOBLE TO
CRIPPLE CORNHUSKERS
When the Huskera from the Corn
State cross headgears with the Farm
ers from Ames, the Amesites will hold
three distinct advantages; the most
important one being the fact that
they will be combatting on their
home soil, another is Ames saw the
Nebraska-Notre Dame game and
consequently know just what their
opponents will do in such a play, the
third advantage is the great handicap
to the Huskers of the absence of Dave
Noble from the Husker backfield.
Big Dave will see the game from
the sidelines because of the severe
sprain he received in the first few
minutes of the game with the invad
ing Irish. Dave was clipped from
behind and as a result is hobbling
around on crutches. It will be re
membered by all Husker followers
that it was against the Ames aggre
gation last year that Dave hung up
a record of three touchdowns In five
minutes. Ames figures that Dave
being out of the lineup brings their
stock to a high peak.
In the workouts this week Gip
Locke and Ced Hartman have been
performing in Noble's station and
have been reeling off some nice gains
against the first-year men. It is a
question just who Coach Dawson will
start in Saturday's conflict. He may
start with Captain Lewellen at quar
ter, the Dewitz brothers at half backs
and Hartman at full or he may
switch Rufe to full and use Locke
and Herb at halfs.
Ames cannot be under rated in the
coming contest. They have a good
team. They defeated the Missouri
ans, who tied Nebraska 7 to 7. Ames
will be out there fighting Nebraska

Dean Engberg Asks That There Be
No Hazing Before Class Battle
Students of the Unireriity of Nebraska:
It u with treat sorrow that I hare just read in this morning's
' of the Nebraskan an implication that there may be hazing; after
9 P. m.t Friday, November 23. I wish to call your attention to the
fact that the Olympics were instituted to take the place of hazing
nd that the student body at that time gave the unirersiy a "lenin
promi.e hat there should be no hazing in the future. We trust that
the students of this year will be honorable enough to live up to this
P edge of the past. The University cannot afford to have its name
blackened by anything that may eventuate as did the hazing at the
Northwestern University some two years ago. As the honor of the
University depends on the action of each individual student, I sin
cerely trust that there is no one connected with the University this
yer who does not love the institution sufficiently to do all in his
Power, not merely to kei a promise in an honorable way, but also
to do his best to secure from the remaining students true allegiance
to the University.
I wish t .tl .ii..iia to the rally that will be held

Be Presented Tonight
Tonight, the University Players
will present "The Dover Road" at the
Temple Theater. This is a play that
was chosen by the patrons last year
as one that they wished to see pre
sented this year by the Temple Stock
company.
The cast, under the direction of
Miss H. Alice Howell and Herbert
Yenne, has been working for several
weeks in preparation for the presen
tation of this comedy. Tickets may
be purchased at the Ross P. Curtice
company or at the ticket office to

IN OLYMPICS TRYOUTS
Accident Occurs While Fresh
man Is Engaged in Box
ing Match.
Donald Conklin, freshman, was in
jured during the Olympic tryouts yes
terday afternoon. His Ankle was
broken and badly dislocated, accord
ing to Doctor Harry Everett, who at
tended him.
Conklin was working out in the
Armory in preparation for the Olym
pics. He was engaged in a boxing
match, trying for a place on the
frosh team which will oppose the
sophomores on the day of the Syra
cuse game.
After his injury he was removed
to the basement of the Armory
where "Doc" McLean declared that
he should be removed to the Lincoln
Sanitarium. Conklin came to the
University this fall from St. Paul,
Nebr. He is a member of the fresh
man football squad, working at the
left wing position. He is a member
of Alpha Tau Omega.
MIDSEMESTER REPORTS
TO COME IN SATURDAY
Delinquency in More Than
Half of Hours to Merit
Dismissal.
Midsemester reports are due at
Dean Engberg's office Saturday
noon. The scholarship committee
will meet Thursday to consider de
linquencies. Delinquency in one-half
or more hours without an excuse ac
ceptable to the committee will merit
dismissal from the university.
Executive Dean Engberg said yes
terday that chronic cases of bad eye
sight will begin to evidence them
selves next week as various students
leave for home because their eye
sight is failing. The dean said that
the scholarship committee is com
posed of kind hearted men and wo
men who are lenient to deserving
students who have good excuses for
being down in their studies, and who
show determination to do better next
semester. The committee is not dis
posed favorably to the sluffer. The
professional "sluffer will find no
mercy at their hands.
Gold Watch Stolen
From "Doc" McLean
A gold watch belonging to "Doc"
McLean, who takes care of the Corn
husker football team, was taken from
a drawer in Mr. Shade's desk in the
basement of the Armory during the
Notre Dame game last Saturday. . .
Maintain That Fight
Do not let that pre-Notre Dame spirit die students.
You are not ready to relax. The team is not relaxing or
even thinking that it can drift through the Ames battle.
The Cyclones froja Iowa are not set-ups, nor are they
inferior. But they must be beaten!
Concede nothing, students. Just think that you
are going to fight, that Nebraska must win his game, that
your help will shove that ball across for the touchdown
that will win the game. You must fight, every one of
you. This will be an uneven battle, for Nebraska has
more to win than Ames has.
Sing upon every opportunity. Give the chant, the
cheers, and follow the team to Ame3 if possible. This
is a critical period.
Nebraska must fight to beat Ames and you are a
Nebraskan.

SYRACUSE TICKETS
ARE SELLING FAST
Six Thousand Additional Seats
to Be Ready for Next
Game.
Tickets for the Syracuse game,
November 24, are selling faster than
they did for the Notre Dame game,
according to John K. Selleck, athletic
treasurer. Mail orders are coming
in fast although the game is more
than a week off.
The stadium and temporary bleach
ers accomodated 23,000 people for
the Notre Dame game. By the time
of the Syracuse game there will be
6,000 more seats in the stadium it
self, but from indications all of the
seats will be sold long before the day
of the game.

third block of tickets. Two thousand
reserved seats have already been sold
in that city alon. Mr. Selleck ad
vises that all students who have
friends or members of the family
who intend to see the game get their
ticket right away, or thy will not get
very good seats, and perhaps will not
get any at all.
