Caeautry Important in War.
Chemistry has received a large
sbsw of the credit for winning the
late war, according to the speaker.
Saew is responsible for the poison
ous passes, the steel-piercing bullets
anl various phases of the horrors of
war. But it also has a more pleas
ant side. The medicines used to
treat the wounded and the various de
vices to alleviate pais are the results
of chemical research.
Of late, many magazines have
fwen undiie credit to the advances
cf modern science, emphasizing the
remarkable perfection of roch Mate
rials as cement, steel, paper, and porcelain.
Credit MisplncenL
All this credit is misplaced, accord
ing to Professor Deming. Cement
was s!d by the ancient Romans,
and modern science has never been1
al)le to duplicate its perfsctioa. Steel;
was used in the time of King Richard, j
Taper was invented by the wasps and
hornets, and man has enly imitated;

Mr. Hoffman gave a resume of the
history of the World Student Chris
tian Federation, which dates from
1S95. It has weathered the most se
rious rapt ares between the govern
ments of its various student members.
The first meeting after the world
war was held in Switzerland in 1920
when students from forty-two coun
tries met to renew the fellowship of
past years.
The European Student Relief was
instituted in Vienna by Ruth Rouse,

well known among young people on
the continent because it includes
other countries in its scope of work.
Japanese students in the United
States, whose parents have been left
destitute by the disaster in their home
land, are receiving financial aid from
the organization.
International conferences are held
every year in different parts of the
world, where Serbian, French. Ger
man, and forty-two other nationali
ties discuss co-operation between va
rious countries and questions of re
ligions faith. It is Mr. Hoffman's
hope that America will not isolate
herself in this matter, but will do her
part to bring about an understanding
between nations.

day is the eve of the Olympics, but it
is also the eve of the greatest East

bickering can outweigh Nebraska
spirit if every student does his part."
Coach Daw-son, Captain Lewellen
and Professor Scott will speak at the
rally. Copies of the Syracuse aathem
will be passed around, and the stu
dents will welcome the Orange team
by singing it.
"While we have set our heatts to
win it is a cleancut victory over our
good friends we seek,"' stated Coach
Dawson last night, "and so let us
make them fell in every sense of the
word that we are their friends. The
team needs your unqualified support
and the University demands that
everv one of voa do his duty as
a Nebraska student."
SQUAD HOLDS FIRST
SCRIMMAGE TUESDAY
Old Dame Gloom flew over the

Herb Dewitz, star halfback on the
Nebraska machine, was taken to the
Lincoln Sanitarium for treat i.-ent for
a severe muscle bruise on his leg. He
was injured in the Ames game but
he thought it was just a slight injury,
and reported for practise Monday.
While running signals his limb gave
out on him and he was forced to quit.
Later in the evening it gave him se
vere pain and he was rushed to the
sanitarium.
The squad held its first real scrim
mage since the Aggie game Tuesday
when a battle with the frosh was
stagd. The Husker lineup was with
out the services of Noble, Herb De
witz, Rhodes, Locke, Berqcist, Mc
Glasson and Robertson. All of these
veterans are carrying limb injuries
and it is doubtful if they will be

It is planned to make the event a
true western affair. Six-shooters are

man, director of Y.M.C.A. student re
lief work, addressed a special Uni
versity convocation Tuesday morning
in the Temple theater.
"Not only is there actual impov
erishment of the intellectual life of
Europe today, but there is real dan
ger of its annihilation," Mr. Hoffman
declared in describing European con
ditions. The problem facing the students,
the work being done in solving them,
and the results of this work, were ex
plained by the speaker.
Thirteen per cent of the European
students are tubercular, SO per cent
of those in Russia go barefooted dur
ing the summer, and the average an
nual wage of a European professor is
thirteen dollars, stated Mr. Hoffman
in his graphic portrayal of conditions
in European universities. Although
the student population has more tha:i
doubled since the war, educational
facilities have not increased. Groups
of-students in Russia are often com
pelled to pool their resources to buy
one text book.

TO THE STUDENTS.
An official stamp of disapproval
directed toward the habit of using
profanity in the cheers ard yells
started extemporaneously at the
more recent games was given by
the Stu Jent Council at its meeting
Tuesday night. It is fet th i this
is not as improvement upon the
regular Nebraska yells and not tbe
conduct most becoming to Ne
braska U- It is requested there
fore that all students refrain froir
such practices in the future- This
situation is called to the attention
of the students and their earnest
co-operatio requested in the sup
pression of these less desirable
practices.

The Question Is How
Well Do You Know
Your Nebraska.
Next Tuesday night, November 27
at 7 o'clock when all loyal Cornhusk
ers meet in Nebraska's old Memorial
hall, a new tradition will have taen
root at Nebraska. At this time a
new spirit will be unveiled and the
i.t v;. now nit fall f.
JtivaL long needed at Nebraska, will
j be su marked in its introduction that
November 27, 1923, will be a mem
orable date in the history of Ne
braska. The spirit that it is hoped will be
created on this night is synonomocs
with that of progress. Tbe spirit is
a strong one and will help at Ne
braska. It tZ! create loyalty, patri
otism, and once it gains a strong foot
hold, it will follow our athletes to
battle, cur gridsters to the field al
ways an invisible urging force. In
this respect there is a strong reason
to believe it will make Nebraska tyn
onomous with invincibility. '
Loyal Cornhuskers, why not be at
the Armory at 7 p. m., November 27,
upon this night of all Nebraska
nights? -
Coach Requests Welcoming Spirit
Editor Daily Nebraskan:
This is a most critical time for Nebraska athletics. Fortun
ately our team is recognized throughout the country as being jmong
the very best- No ne recognizes better than I that a vry large
part of our success has been due to the wonderful support of the
University body as a whole in fact I am certain that the team could
not Have played its great game had not this loyalty been ever present
before the game.
The singing on the campus, the cheering, the spoken word of
encouragement, expression of devotion all these went to tbe very
heart of every player and made it bigger and more fearless and
more determined to win. May I not ask you to do all in your power
to see that it continues for the Syracuse game in the same splendid
proportions that it took for the Notre Dame game. I want you to
know how much it has meant to us all and how much we jjed your
continued support.
And let there be a spirit of welcome to Syracuse on every hand;
for tbey are our guests and we are proud to extend them every gen
tlemanly courtesy let them go back to New York state filled with
the conviction that, win or lose, the men and women of Nebraska
under all conditions are thoroughly qualified to act in every sense
the host.
While we have our hearts to win, it is a clean-cut victory over
our good friends that we ek; and so let us make tbtn feel in vry
sense of the word that we are their friends.
Tbe team needs your unqualified support and the University
demands that every one of you do his duty as a Nebraska student-
FarthfuHy yours,
FRED T. DAWSON,
Coach and Dean of Men.
