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.

STILL UNSOLD
False Impressions Are Current
Concerning The Availa
bility of Seat
EXPECT 41,000 AT GAME
According to John K. 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

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.

versity of Kansas orchestra composed
of forty pieces, accompanied by so

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.
