WRECKERS RUSH WORK ON U HALL First Units of the New Roof Over the First Floor Are Being Built TOWER IS NEARLY DOWN Forty-one men were on the wreck ing crew yesterday tearing down U Hall. The Jobst Building Company is rushing the work to catch up with the schedule after being slowed up last week by the work of taking off the slate shingles which were taken off carefully in order to be used in later University building operations. While the wreckers were busy above on tho roof and the fourth floor tearing down old vails, carpen ters were equally busy on the second floor constructing the new roof over the first floor. The first units of the roof have been built over the east rooms, and board frame work has been laid in the two adjoining rooms. The center of the new roof will only be about a foot higher than the outside ledges. The covering on the top will be a tar composoition called a "five year" roof. The east attic of the building was shorn of its outside slate and board covering yesterday. The rooms are the ones that were used for classes for a few years in the early nineties The Blue Print offices were there several years ago. Old lumber from the attic alnd the walls is being hauled away daily by people who are paying one dollar a load for it. The wood has been dry ing for over fifty years and is pro nounced first class kindling by thosa who were taking it away yesterday. The unexpected finding of large quantities of sheet tin on the roof also helped slow down the wrecking operations last week. The roof is the largest single element to be torn don. When it is disposed of, the wrecking of the remaining walls and floors will be an easy task. The old tower was o far torn down yesterday that only a portion of it as visible against the skyline. In another day it will be down low as the surrounding fence. The area within the board fence ir pretty well filled with debris. On the east side many of the old beam have been piled, and the old-fashioned square spikes removed.

Selleck, di rector of student activities, there are still 3000 or 4000 available seats for the Nebraska-Notre Dame football gnmo on Thanksgiving Day. Many people seem to be under the impres sion thnt the tickets for the big game are all sold, but this apprehension is by no means true. Some tickets will be sold on the morning of the game. The remaining seats are those in the temporory bleachers which are being erected at the north and south ends of the field. Tickets for these scats are on sale at the office of John K. Selleck for the regular price of two dollars. Arrangements are being made to accommodate the largest crowd ever to witness a football game in the state of Nebraska. An attendance of 41,000 spectators is expected to fill every available seat in the stadium and to help cheer Nebraska warriors to victory over the Irish from the Hoosier state. Special trains from every direction will arrive in Lincoln loaded with fans intent upon seeing the Turkey Day game. Specials from Superior, home of Ed and Joe Weir; Omaha, Denver, Sioux City, Kansas City, Chicago, and South Bend will steam their way into Lincoln late Wednes day afternoon or Thursday morning PHI SIGMA ELECTS MEMBERS Honorary Biological Society Choose Eight From Department Phi Sigma, honorary biological so ciety, recently announced the elec tion of eight new members.

Welcome Notre DameBut Nebraska's famous torchlight parade and rally on the eve of the Notre Dame game comes tomorrow. To Notre Dame our demonstration is a welcome but to Ne braska it is the last chance to raise Cornhusker spirit to the highest pitch. Every student will be present. That demonstration will organize the team and stu dent body into a fighting unit, a spirit that cannot be beaten. And with the same idea in the mind of every Cornhusker "Beat .Notre Dame" the team and student body will work as a unit, a machine, every part function ing every part carried on by the splendid performance of the olhei parts. To every Nebraska that.r!ly will clinch the idea to fight and concede nothing for Nebraska. No wonder Nebraska spirit has driven so many Husker teams to victory. Such force cannot be stopped. Welcome Notre Dame, but fight and concede nothing.

MANY AFFILIATE WITH CHURCHES Denominations Report Large Attendance of Students On Sunday OBSERVE CHURCH DAY Local churches that lie within the student residential section, were well attended last Sunday. Following a custom, the Sunday preceeding Thanksgiving is considered by Uni versity students as a day of universal attendance at the church of their choice. Some of the favorite churches have encouraged the tradition by set ting aside the event as church affili ation day and sent invitations to the students of that faith. One hundred and ninety-nine stu dents affiliated with the First Pres byterian church, fourteen of whom made permanent connection. At Westminister Presbyterian, students were taken into the church for the length of their school term from a congregation that overflowed the church building. All possible seat ing facilities were brought into use and with a large number attending more were turned away for lack of room. The service was one given largely for the benefit of the young people. Out of the ninety-six un:'"prsity young people who had signed to af filiate with the First Presbyterian church, sixty-nine were present and accepted. St. Paul M. E. church re ceived about sixty affiliations. Six teen young ;;aop!e made temporary affiliation with the Vine Congrega tional church. First Plymouth Congregational church had the largest attendance of students, and a group of affiliated students were received. Another group will be admitted soon. Ap proximately one hundred students at tended the special services that were held at the Grace M. E. church and fifteen were acknowledged as affili ated members. A formal reception service was held for the new mem bers. All-University church Sunday was observed at the University Episcopal church, but since membership in the Episcopal church is by confirmation only, no new members were accept ed. HAVE LAST WORKOUT WITH VARSITY SQUAD Freshmen Season of Football Is About Over; Practice Notre Dame Plays After the usual preliminary prac tice the freshmen went to the stadium for their final workout with the Var sity. The freshmen's season of foot ball is about over and has been a very successful one. The scrimmage with the Varsity Monday. was confined to dummy scrimmage mainly. With a week's work ort the Notre Dame plays behind them, the year lings were ready to give the Huksers their best. The Irish formations have been worked down to perfection and should give the Varsity some real valuable practice. Coach Newman has been putting his charges through some strenuous work-outs during the past week and had them in fine fet tle for the nightly scrimmages with the Varsity. The freshman team this year has been a credit to Nebraska. They have added materially in developing the Huskers stone-wall defense that several teams have found impene trable. Not only "have they aided the Varsity but several men have been developed that will be Cornhuskers next fall. K. U. Orchestra Tours State University of Kansas. The Uni versity of Kansas orchestra composed of forty pieces, accompanied by so loists, will make a tour of the state sometime during December. Weather Forecast Tuesday: Partly cloudy. EXPECT 10,000 AT RALLY ON EYE OF IRISH GAME "Duke" Gleason, Former Head Varsity Cheerleader for Two Years Will Be Back to Lead The Cheering Both at The Rally and at The Game Thanksgiving Day HUGE BONFIRE ON DRILL FIELD TO START PROGRAM "Nebraska Is Playing The Hardest Game on its Schedule Thursday and Must Be Supported by Every Student," Head Coach Bearg Declared Yesterday Cornhuskcrs to the number of 10,000 are expected at what promises to be the greatest football rally ever staged at the University of Nebraska which will be held tomorrow night. A huge bonfire will start the program at 7 o'clock on the drill "eld. . , , , "Nebraska is playing the hardest game on 'its schedule Thursday and must be supported by every student," Coach Bearg declared yesterday. "It is up to every student of the University of Nebraska to attend the rally Wednesday night." Coach Schulte stated, "Every man and woman will be at the rally yelling and doing everything that is possible to see that Cornhusker spirit reaches the peak that must be reached in order to win the game Thursday. Real Cornhuskers never fail their school at a crucial moment. Every student must be there. Dismiss All Classes On Thanksgiving Day As usual, University of Nebras ka classes will be dismissed on Thanksgiving Day, November 26. Classes will be held Friday, ac cording to announcements. Dean Engberg made this state ment: "All University classes will be excused Thursday, Nov. 20. No excuses' of any kind will be granted students by the executive dean or by any instructors for ab sence from Friday classes except in very rare cases." IRISH TO ARRIVE ON WEDNESDAY Notre Dame Has Been Pointing For Game Since Contest With Army FLANAGAN MAIN THREAT A squad of Irish intent on beating Nebraska will arrive in Lincoln Wed nesday morning in preparation for the Notre Dame-Husker football game here on Thanksgiving day. Fresh from a victory over North western, conquerers of Fielding II. Yost's Michigan gridsters, the Notre Dame team comes to the Nebraska camp a strong favorite to win the game. Coach Knute Rocknu's team came back in the second half of Sat urday's game and outplayed the Purple for a deserved victory, and exhibited a power which prints to a supreme battle Thursday. Whether or not Coach Rockne will start his second team against the Huskers as he did against North western is a question. Should he do that he will probably be prepared to send in his regulars any moment, as Nebraska is not considered a walk over by the South Bend team. Have Pointed For This Game The Notre Dame team has been pointing for this game since the scrap with the Army eleven early in the season. It has a margin of one victory over Nebraska in the matter of games already played, and it is Notre Dame's object to make it a two-game lead. Captain Glen Crowe is reported out for the season on account of injuries, but this will weaken the invading team but little. As usual, Rockne has, a fighting bunch of re serves as well as a driving regular squad, and there are plenty of men who can fill Crowe's place. A big Irishman from Texas is the main threat against Nebraska Christie Flanagan. He is only 166 pounds heavy, but reports of Notre Dame games indicate that he is a backfield man destined to become great, or nearly so. Enright Is Kicker The Notre Dame kicker is Rex Enright. This is Enright's third year and he is making the most of it with long punts and place kicks. There will be two stone' wall de fensives when the two teams mix Thursday. Since the Carnegie Tech game, the Notre Dame line has shown marked strength, and presents a de fense that is hard to walk over. As Nebraska's defense is nothing to be sneezed at, the game may develop into a punting duel or an open game. Activity Causes Change A wide range of activity and re sponsibility are the two reasons given by the California dean of college wo men for what change there is in the to the college woman of twenty-five years ago. If the college woman of twenty-five years ago had the same range of training, and opportunity, enjoying the same freedom as the college woman of today, she would have responded in much the same way. Must Keep Up Spirit Captain Ed Weir who will lead the Cornhusker team on the field empha tically stated: "Nebraska students must keep up the spirit and fight of this last week. It is up to the stu dent body to make this rally the big gest rally and most spirited one ever seen at the University of Nebraska." Reassured by these statements and confident of the fighting Cornhusker spirit, members of the committee in charge expect that 10,000 will be present at the rally. Speakers at the rally will be Coach Bearg, Coach H. F. Schulte, Monte Munn, Nebraska's giant ex-football star, "Choppy" Rhodes, Roland Locke, Harold Hutch ison and Joe Wostoupal, who are the members of the Nebraska' football squad who will play their last game for Nebraska on Thanksgiving Day. "Bob" Lang, president of the Inno cents, will preside, and "Duke" Glea son, for two years the head Varsity cheer-leader, will be oack to lead the cheers both at the rally and at the game. Torch-Light Parade After Rally Immediately after the rally, the torch-light parade will no through the downtown section and wind up at the Lincoln hotel to greet Rockne and the Irishmen. Rockne and several mem bers of his team will talk to the pa- Freshmen Should Bring Boxes for Rally Bonfire All freshmen are urged to bring boxes for the big bonfire. They should have them at the drill field not later than 4 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. Down town merchants have signified their willingness to co-operate with the freshmen by furnishing boxes to all the first-year men who ask for them. raders. The parade will be headed by the band and the Corn Cobs. The torch-light parade will form on the campus. The route will be from the campus to Twelfth and Q streets, thence on Q to Thirteenth, on Thirteenth to O, on O to Ninth and on Ninth to P street. There in front of the Lincoln Hotel the light-bearers will form to greet the Rcknemen. The committee in charge of the sale of the torches request that stu dents buy a torch as soon as possible. The supply is nearly exhausted; if necessary the committee will procure more torches. Members of the Iron Sphinx are selling the torches for twenty cents. This is five cents less than the price of the torches last year. Request Freshmen to Bring Boxes Everything will be over by 8 o'clock according to the plans; so that students may keep their evening engagements. Every freshman is re quested to bring a big box "the big ger the better" to the drill field for the bonfire. "Duke" Gleason, who will act as cheer-leader, is a familiar figure to those who have followed athletics at the Cornhusker institution for the past three years. For two years of that time the whole cheer-leading force was under his direction. He is, according to those who have been in terested in football spirit at Nebras ka, one of the best directors of or ganized rooting that the University has ever produced. Want More Women To Sell Candy Thursday More women are needed to Bell cajidy at the Notre Dame game, thursday. Lists are posted on the W. A. A. bulletin board in wtst Armory. A box of candy will be given to the woman selling the most candy at the game. No one is to sell while the game is in progress, so women selling are given opportunity to also see the game.
