for positions in the Symphony. One
hour credit is given for each semes

eligible for membership. Rehearsals

ten experienced players cannot be
admitted to the regular orchestra, for
its membership is limited. Now
such players will be put in the pre

Tuesly at both the city campus and
the College of Agriculture. At the
city campus students may vote in the

University Players. A few of the
acts under consideration are the Coffer-Miller

NEBRASKA AND ILLINOIS
WILL CLASH TOMORROW
Spirit Reaching High Pitch With First Game of Season Only
One Day Off; Expect 30,000 to Assemble in
Nebraska's Memorial Stadium.
CLEAR DAY PREDICTED;
Before what is expected to be one
of the largest crowds ever assembled
in the Memorial Stadium, the football
elevens of Nebraska and Illinois will
clash Saturday afternoon at 2 o'
clock in the first game of the season.
Reports of advance sales by John K.
Selleck, business agent for student
activities, indicate that the atten
dance will reach 30,000. The best
of conditions for the contest on the
new sod field are anticipated by the
Husker coaches.
The Illini are in good condition
and confident of victory, though
Zuppke is holding up the nemesis of
over-confidence to his squad, news
paper reports from Urbana indicate.
Injuries have taken their toll of the
Song and Yell Rallies
Held Yesterday
Song and yell rallies were held
on the campus eastf the Armory
between classes Thursday. Stu
dents passing to classes joined in
singing Nebraska songs. Selec
tions were played by the Univer
sity band.
Students will be allowed to sing
for five minutes in classes Friday
morning, according to orders is
sued by Carl C. Engberg, Execu
tive Dean. Rallies will be held
at 3:30, 10:50 and 11:50 o'clock
east of the Armory again today.
This will not interfere with class
es as the rallies will be short.
ENTIRE STADIUM
MAY BE SOLD OUT
Ticket Sales for First Game In
dicate Crowd That May
Fill Stands.
Ticket sales for the Illinois game
have become much brisker in the last
few days and if there is a heavy sale
at the Stadium on the day of the
game the entire Stadium may be sold
out
Reports from Latch Brothers,
where tickets are being sold down
town, indicate that the sales there
are heavy, John K. Selleck, business
agent for athletics, said Thursday.
About 200 tickets were sold at the
Student Activities office Thursday.
Sales of student tickets are con
tinuing, although most of the stu
dents who intend to buy tickets have
already done so. The student sec
tion is now almost sold out. One sce
tion remains.
In case the Illinois game provides a
sell-out, it will prove to be an attrac
tion that ranks with the Notre Dame
game. Only Notre Dame, heretofore,
has drawn such huge crowds.
NEW PUBLICATION IS ISSUED
Cornhusker New Serrice Make
First Appearance.
The first issue of the Cornhusker
News Service was published by the
Athletic Department of the Univer
sity th latter part of the week. It
contained a brief summary of foot
ball practice and the attempts of
Coach Dawson to get a winning com
bination from the four regulars of
last year and a string of substitutes
and sophomores. Locke, is unable
to start, and Mielenz will probably
take his place at left half.
Lively contests are being staged
for various line positions.
The bulletin also contained an ac
count of the Knothole Club, a squad
of five thousand youngsters between
the ages of ten and fifteen, who will
be admitted free to all games as
guests of the Athletic Department.
Freshmen Must Wear
Green Caps by Monday
Freshmen mny now purchase green
caps at Farquhar's Clothing store. A
new supply of 400 was received by
the store late yesterday, and are on
sale for seventy-five cents each. All
first-year men are expected to wear
the caps, and the deadline set for
purchasing them is October 6. Iron
Sphinx, sophomore organization, in
enforcing the wearing of the caps.
FIELD IN GOOD CONDITION
Husker gridsters. Locke and Mie
lenz, both halfbacks, will probably be
on the sidelines when the whistle
blows, but may get into the game.
Football was king at the Uniyer
sity Thursday. Little else was
thought or spoken. Between classes
impromptu rallies were held in front
of Social Science building. The band
played; the students cheered and
clapped then everyone hurried
away to make classes. The rallies
were limited to five minutes.
Students will sing for five minutes
at the beginning of all classes Fri
day to help generate spirit for the
game.
Red armbands, with the words in
white letters, "Welcome Illinois" are
seen everywhere on the campus and
merchants have painted their show
windows with the same slogan. The
Illinois song, "The Blue and Gold,"
will be sung by the students at the
game, mingling with the strains of
"The Cornhusker." The special root
ers' section of three hundred will be
called upon to give the "Oske-wow-wow"
Illinois yell.
The new Stadium field, sodded last
year, is now in perfect condition. The
green turf is soft and offers consid
erable protection from injuries. This
will be the first real game on the
field.
The Illini team pulled away from
Urbana Thursday and will arrive in
Lincoln today. Probably the Illini
will workout in Lincoln, the prac
tice being limited to a few limbering
up exercises.
The Cornhusker squad looked
much better Thursday evening than
before. More zip is being shown
in executing plays. The team will
probably weigh a little less than the
team of last year. Joe Weir, guard,
will bring down the average consid
erably, in case he gets into the game
in place of Ogden. The backfield
will undoubtedly be lighter and the
line about the same.
Rhodes, who played end last year,
will probably be switched to full
back on offense. He will resume his
regular end on defense. Rhodes has
shown marked ability at line-plunging.
Myers, who was formerly at
fullback, will take end on offence
and fullback on defense. Bloodgood,
Mandery and Dailey will probably
make up the rest of the backfield,
unless Mielenz or Locke is able to
play. Dailey may then be held on the
sidelines. Kamm, quarterback, is
contesting with Bloodgood for his po
sition and may start the game.
Robcitson and Roy Mandery have
been alternating at left end, with Ro
bertson, a veteran, having the edge.
Captain Weir and Molzen have the
call for the tackle positions and Hut
chinson seems assured of center.
Hubka should play one guard with
Ogden or Joe Weir at the other. Wos-
toupal is also a possibility. The some
what indefinite lineup is the result of
the injuries reported and the trying
out of new men as the result of the
poor showing of the Varsity against
the freshmen .
Walter Eckersall, all-time ail-Ame
rican quarterback, and one of the
greatest football experts in the coun
try, will referee the game.
The roster of officials follows:
Referee Walter Eckersall, Chica
go.
Umpire J. J. Schomer, Chicago.
Field Judge H. P. Hackett, West
Point
Head Lineman J. C. Whyte, Cor
nell. The forecast of the weather bureau
indicates that the weather will be
fair for the game. The day may be
partly cloudy but there is little possi
bility of rain.'
KNOTHOLE CLUB TO SEE GAME
Five Thousand Boy and Girl to Be
Guest of University.

boys and girls between the ages of
ten and fifteen years, inclu
sive, is expected to mingle its cheers
