COMMITTEE PREPARING
ELABORATE PROGRAM
Nebraska's annual Cornhusker
banquet will be given this year at
the Scottish Rite Temple December
12, according to preliminary plnn3
being worked out now. Arrange
ments are being made for 2,000 men
and according to members of the
committee, the program will be the
most elaborate ever given at a ban
quet Flans for the celebration call for
several orchestras and many speak
ers. It is the idea this year to pro
vide many short speeches instead of
only a few long ones. A nationally
known man will be secured for toct
master, as has been the custom in
past years.
The banquet is a big feature of the
social calendar and is held each year
after the close of the football sea
son. It's object is to fete the foot
ball team and coaches. Last year
1,500 attended and the team, coach
es, and fifty prominent business men-1
were guests of honor. John D.
Clarke, '05, vice-president of the
Standard Oil Company, was the
toastmaster.
The banquet has become a tradi
tion at Nebraska. Last year motion
pictures were shown of the Notre
Dame game and representatives of
the team, faculty, and coaches spoke.
The committee for this year's event
promise a better program than ever
before. Tickets will be put on sale
the latter part of this month.

Harvard Freshmen
, In Favor of Hazing
Hazing was approved by an over
whelming majority in the Harvarl
University freshman discussion group
recently. The theory advanced was
that sophomore-freshman rivalry
tended to unify the entering class
and help stamp out indifference
which is said to be characteristic of
the Harvard undergraduate body.
The argument that there is danger
of physical injury was hooted down.

Thinks R Street
Should Be Wider
A widening of R Street and the
installation of an ornamental
lighting system around the cam
pus were points urged by Frank
D. Eager Monday before the city
planning division of the Chamber
of Commerce of Lincoln. He said
that the state should do this for
the campus for purposes of beavr
tification and convenience.
"R Street between Tenth and
Sixteenth Streets is too narrow
for traffic when there are two
lines of parked cars along it," he
stated.
SIMPSON PLAYS
WESLEYAN TODAY
University Students Will Be
Admitted On Season
Tickets.
t Many University students will at

Armistice day program. Student
tickets will admit the holders to the
game and they will sit in their regu
lar seats. All regular cadet ushers
will be on duty at the game and
members of the Women's Athletic
Association will have charge of the
concessions, as usual.
I The game is said to be one of the
best on the Wesleyan schedule. Simp
son college, at Indianola, Iowa, has
not been defeated this season and is
one of the'strongest teams in its con
ference. Nebraska Wesleyan Uni
versity is one of the strongest teams
in this state.
The advance ticket sale for the
game has been good, and a delegation
from Simpson has been provided for.
A special train will make the trip

come. This will be the last workout the
Varsity will have before entraining
for South Bend Thursday.
"We want every student to see this
game," Coach Dawson declared. "If
the students are there and cheering

The Will to Win
We have the team. We have the spirit. We have
THE WILL TO WIN.
Notre Dame has swept the east and the midwest for
the third successive year. The chance is ours next Satur
day, once more to demonstrate the heights to which Nebras
ka football elevens can rise.
Last year, on the day we met Notre Dame, our team
was invincible unconquerable. Nebraska had made, up
to that time, only a mediocre record. But hard training
plus grit and determination upset the calculations of those
who had pre-reckoned results on the basis of comparative
scores. WE WON.
Nebraska the team fights hard, because there is an
enthusiastic student body with the highest confidence in its
team.
The energy of the thousands of loyal Cornhuskers is
centered on the rally Wednesday evening almost the last
chance they will have to carry to the team the spirit that
triumphed over the "fighting Irish" last year.
Missouri Valley, Cornhusker football will be convinc
ingly branded as the best in the nation by a victory at South
Bend Saturday. Seven thousand loyal Huskers expect THE
WILL TO WIN to conquer the wonder team of Notre Dame.
ANNUAL OFFERS
SALES AWARDS
Cornhusker Will Give Individ
ual and Sorority Prizes
In Contest.
ALL WOMEN ELIGIBLE
IN NEW COMPETITION
Prizes will be awarded the five
highest individuals and the two high
est sororities or other organizations
competing in the sales campaign for
the 1925 Cornhusker to be held from
November 17 to 21, according to an
announcement made Monday by the
business manager, Robert Lang, '26,
Wymore.
A recent ruling by the Women's
Pan-Hellenic Association makes it
possible for sororities to enter the
contest. This ruling repudiated the
previous action of the association
discouraging sororities from taking
part in sales drives.
Dormitories and organized room
ing houses may also compete for the
prizes. Any woman attending the
University of Nebraska may enter
the individual competition.
The exact nature of the prizes of
fered was not announced but it is
understood that they will be valu
able, useful articles.
The price of the Cornhusker will
be $4.50, the same that it was last
year. The entire amount may be
paid at the time of purchase or a first
payment of $2.50 may be made and
the balance paid when the book is de
livered. If 3,500 copies of the annual are
sold a refund of fifty cents will be
made to all those who paid the full
purchase price of $4.50.
Each organization competing in
the drive will appoint one girl who
will take charge of her group. She
will be responsible for seeing that
the sales books are checked in each
night so that the standings in the
contest can be announced in The
Daily Nebraskan each morning.
"The 1925 Cornhusker is to be Ne
braska's greatest annual," said Rob
ert Lang, business manager, in com
menting on the plans for the book.
"More money has been spent this
year on art work and nearly every
section is being made more elaborate
and detailed."
A large section giving a pictorial
story of campus events during the
year will be one of the features of
the book.
AGGIES DEFEAT OMAHA TEAM

Issue Call for
Olympic Aspirants
The first call for Olympic aspir
ants in the freshman class was is
sued yesterday when Ray Ran
dalls, chairman of the Olympics
committee, announced that try
outs for positions on the boxing
team would be held Wednesday
evening in the Armory. As many
first-year men as possible are
urged to get out to the trials in
order to assure a victory for the
freshman class. The contest will
be held November 29, which al

JUNIOR PICTURES
COMING IN SLOW
Hope Many Will Make Ap
pointments for Two Re
maining Days.
Only two more days remain until
the last of the junior pictures for the
1925 Cornhusker must be taken. Less
than half of the juniors in the Uni
versity had had their pictures taken
up to last evening. The Cornhusker
management hopes that at least 150
more juniors will go to the studios
before Thursday and that the total
number of junior pictures in the an
nual will be about 650.
"It is impossible to extend the
time limit on these junior pictures
because we are under contract to
have the panels in the hands of the
engravers by December 1," stated
Wendell Berge, editor of the Corn
husker. Seniors who desire to use thir
Cornhusker photographs for Christ
mas must have their pictures taken
some time this week. Both Town
send and Hauck studios have con
sented to give the Cornhusker dis
count this week only.

ARTIST TO VISIT LINCOLN
Patterson Will Exhibit Paintings
Here For Two Weeks.
Howard Ashman Patterson of
Denver, Colorado, well-known paint
er in oils, is coming to Lincoln aljput
November 20 to give a twa weeks' ex
hibit of his own paintings.
According to Professor P. H.
Grummann, Mr. Patterson has paint
ed with great success in the south
west, and is much interested in that
semi-arid country. He has also made
a study of the ceremonials of the
Indians. His work is said to show
the broad influence of the Taos
school of painting. The date of Mr.
Patterson's arrival will be announced
later.
AG STUDENTS
ARRANGE TOUR
Will Inspect Becker Farm and
Give Demonstration at 7
Denton.
ENGINEERING SOCIETY
IN CHARGE OF PLANS
An inspection and demonstration
trip is planned by the Agricultural
Engineers, student society of the ag
ricultural engineering department,
for next Thursday evening, Novem
ber 13. Seventy-five men in about
fifteen automobiles will leave Agri
cultural Hall at 4 o'clock on a tour
that will conclude with a series of
demonstrations at Denton.
They will first visit the farm of
Carl Becker, six miles west of Lin
coln. Mr. Becker has a very well
equipped farm and a splendid herd
of dairy cattle. This will give the
students an opportunity to observe
the improvements that can be made
in agricultural conditions.
The next stop will be at Denton,
where several demonstrations will be
made in the Denton Hall. The fol
lowing demonstrations will be made:
Timing the valves on a stationary
engine, trouble shooting on a mag
neto, adjusting the knotter on a
binder, soldering, saw filing, head
light adjusting. About fifty copies
of mimeographed directions for each
of these demonstrations will be
passed out to the farmers in the audi
ence. The American Society of Agricul
tural Engineers pays all of the ex
penses of the trip and puts on the
demonstrations. Any student of the
Agricultural College or of the Engin
eering College who is interested is
invited to go and arrangements can
be made by calling the agricultural
engineering department before 5
o'clock, Wednesday evening. Fifty
nine students had signed up to go at
noon last Saturday. If the farmers
appreciate the efforts of these stu
dents, other meetings may be held
later in other parts of the country.
DAWSON PRAISES
NOTRE DAME TEAM
Nebraska Coach Says His
Team Has Spirit That Is
Unbeatable.
"The game is never over until th?
last whistle blows. We are not con
ceding anything, and we have a spirit
that is unbeatable."
This was the statement of Coach
Fred T. Dawson Monday evening. He
also commented on the Notre Dame
team, which he saw in action Satur
day against Wisconsin.
"Notre Dame has the finest team
I ever saw. It works like clock-work.
The men are experienced, fast and
well-balanced. The defense is beau
tiful. The men are not light, but
sturdy. They will outweigh our
team, I believe.
"In spite of the fact that several
regulars are not in good shape, our
team will show a great deal of cour
age and put up a splendid, manly
fight. Never for one minute do we
concede that we are beaten."
Meals Average Less Than Thirty
Cents at University Cafeteria
Approximately nine hundred meals
are served daily at the Temple cafe
teria, at an average og 29.2 cents
each according to Mrs. Louise Vin
ing, manager. From four to five
hundred people are served at lunch
eon alone.
The cafeteria is owned and . oper
ated by the University of Nebraska
for the benefit of those connected
with the institution. The patronage
of outsiders is accepted but not soli
cited. The cafeteria operates con
tinuously while the university is in
session, Sundays included. '
The aim of the Temple cafeteria is
to provide a variety of wholesome,
well-cooked food at a lower rate than
is charged elsewhere.
HARTLEY WILL
TALK AT RALLY
Former Husker Captain to
Share Speaking Hon
ors With Dawson.
FOOTBALL TEAM LEAVES
THURSDAY FOR INDIANA
, Harold "Chic" Hartley, '23, cap
tain of Nebraska's Missouri Valley
championship football team which
defeated Notre Dame in 1922, will
be the principal speaker at the No
tre Dame rally in the Armory tomor
row evening at 7 o'clock. Hartley,
whose team was defeated only once,
will share speaking honors with
Coach Fred T. "Snap-it-up" Dawson
at what is expected to be one of the
greatest rallies of the year.
Nebraska's "Fighting Cornhusk
ers" will be introduced to the stu
dents for the first time since the
Illinois game and the University
band, which will accompany the team
to Notre Dame, will be on hand.
According to those planning for
the rally, a little difficulty, was ex
perience in obtaining the rally on a
week night. For this reason it is
necessary that the program begin
promptly at 7 o'clock in order to
allow students in fraternity houses
and dormitories to return to study
table at the required time. Carl C.
Engberg, executive dean, granted
permission for the rally only on
those conditions.
The Nebraska squad will entrain
Thursday for South Bend, to keep
an engagement in that city for the
great game of the season. Rallies
for the annual Notre Dame game
have always been the biggest of each
year and it is expected that this one
will be no exception. The fact that
the team will not be playing on its
own field should have a great deal
to do with the spirit and demonstra
tions at the rally.
The only two opportunities stu
dents will have to give the team a
good send-off will be at the rally and
the departure Thursday. The rally
is the only means of the year. Mon
roe "Duke" Gleason, head cheer
leader, is intent on raising the roof
off the Armory.
"I want every real Cornhusker
who wants to see his team win this,
perhaps the hardest and most desir
able game of the season, to be out
there at that rally," said Coach Daw
son. "You who can't go along will
have to do this to show us that we've
got a bunch back here waiting for a
victory."
PLAN SEND-OFF
FOR CORNHDSKERS
Students to Give Demonstra
tion As Team Leaves for
South Bend.
Nebraska will send off its foot
ball team at 4 o'clock Thursday af
ternoon at the Chicago & Northwest
ern railway station, Ninth and S
streets. The send-off, following the
rally Wednesday evening, is e'xpected
by many to be the largest demonstra
tion of its kind ever staged. The
University band and the cheerleaders
will lead the crowd in songs and
yells.
The impression on the team, cheer
leaders say, depends solely on the
size and spirit of the crowd. They
believe that the remembrance of the
exceedingly poor showing when the
squad left for Oklahoma will serve to
make the crowd a large one.
Classes will not be excused, but it
is thought that there are enough stu
dents who do not have classes at that
hour to make a good showing.
UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS No
vember 26, the day before Thanks
giving, has been authorized as "Ho
bo Day." Moth-eaten, worn-out,
ragged and torn bits of clothing will
be the order of the day. Short
classes have been scheduled for that
day which will end in a "pep" rally
before the game with Missouri.
Out of the returns are paid the
salaries of the. employed, the ex
pense of the raw food, the light, heat
and water bills, and the cost of the
equipment which is added from time
to time.
More students are employed by
the Temple cafeteria than by any
other restaurant or cafeteria in Lin
coln. Of the 46 persona on the pay
roll, 32 are students.
Much labor-saving machinery is in
cluded in the equipment. The serv
ing counters and steam tables have
been rearranged for better service.
A duplicate arrangement provides
for the accomodation of two lines kS
the same time.
