KANSAS WAKES US UP
Jayhawk to Jawhawk. The pass was true. A blue
shirt Slipped through the field, sprinting for the goal
and a Kansas touchdown.
The ball wobbled over the line of scrimmage with
four Kansans tipping it, only to fall in James' hands
with no one to prevent his crossing the few yards to
the goal. , ,
A kick-off A return! And Sloan was through the
field, keeping inches ahead of his last pursuer. A touch
down again!
These were only a few of the unexpected plays
in yesterday's game which brought thrills or chills to
the fifteen thousand spectators who watched Nebraska
celebrate its homecoming in true Cornhusker style.
Yesterday's game was a splendid illustration of
the change which has come over football. It is a sensa
tional game today. A team can no longer depend upon
eheer power and weight for victory. The variety and
aggressiveness which make football spectacular are also
the elements which produce victory.
The psychological effect of the modern game has
increased in geometric proportions to the development
of the open game. Brawn no longer defeats brawn.
Mere brawn may at times be all right. Even trained
brawn may be all right. Coupled with heady playing
it is usually a strong combination but may be insuf
ficient. Nebraska's team at the start of the Kansas game
yesterday was name for name, practically the same as
. waoIc co. But from the start of the game it was
evident that the team was not the same. The resistless
driving power which swept Syracuse off its feet was
lacking. The men were walking into position instead of
running. The "snap" was gone.
The Huskers were psychologically off. No wonder.
Talk all week had been that they weren't overconfident.
But the entire assumption behind the talk was that
Nebraska reed expect no difficulty. The team was the
victim of the delusion that victory would be easy.
Victory can never be easy in modern football. Too
many varied attacks are possible. The Huskers had the
brawn, the headwork, and the coaching to smother the
Jayhawks. They lacked the realization that they had
to fight.
When the second half rolled around, the Huskers
had found themselves again. They marked up four
touchdowns in the third quarter. The team had "come
around" psychologically. They had grasped the situa
tion. Nebraska has demonstrated that it has a team.
It has demonstrated that it knows football, that it has
at hand the elements which make for spectacular foot
ball, victorious football, as well as steady, plugging
football.
Three games remain on the schedule. Three
"tough" games! If the Huskers are psychologically
right, it will take a great team to defeat them. With
the showings made so far this season by the three re
maining Husker opponents, Nebraska appears to have
some real battles ahead. It is better that it be so. The
Hunkers will be more likely to play the game they did
against Syracuse, and yesterday in the third quarter,
when they satisfied the Homecoming crowd that Ne
braska has retained its ten-year superiority in football
over Kansas.
scattered in the various fraternity houses, and hotels
around town whUe the Kansas rooters were parading
the streets with frequent "corner rallies".
In every section of the campus a spirit of "wel
come" was shown by the Nebraska student body which
surpasses that of the past few years. If this same spirit
had been in evidence when Notre Dame played here
two years ago the athletic relations of the two schools
would never have been broken.
This spirit of homecoming is what the University
of Nebraska has lacked and which it has now succeeded
in finding. In the future no alumni or visiting teams
or rooters will leave this school feeling they did not
receive a warm welcome. As long as this spirit per
meates the student body Nebraska will be the popular
host it should be.
Just who or what organization deserves credit for
this change in the student body is immaterial. Perhaps
it just "growed up" like Topsy.
An example has been set by Nebraska's student
body, nevertheless. The freshmen and sophomores of
today must carry on this "welcome" spirit into the fu
ture until it is firmly imprinted upon the school's ideals
as a tradition.
And speaking of that good old elastic word "tra
dition", at homecoming is when it shines as the favorite
alumni expression, above all the other overworked
words. of the college vocabulary: "dumb", "perfect",
"snappy", "nifty", etc. etc.
THE
SPECTATOR
Fort Crook at Omaha to add to the
military effect. According to the
committee, a 37 millimeter gun may
be used to fire a Balute when the
main guests of the evening arrive,
an also when the honorary colonel
is presented.
Plant for Presentation
Plans are being drawn up now
providing for a fortress on the stage
from which the honorary colonel will
appear. Definite plans for the -3re-mony
of preEsntation are not complete.
The Nebraskan has a new definition for a "dum
bell": one who holds up the wrong colored card in the
cheering section at the right time. Two of this specie
were blissfully "ignorant of their mistakes yesterday
afternoon.
'"WELCOME" IS THE PASSWORD
Kansas rooters and returning alumni of the Uni
versity of Nebraska were exposed to what hospitality
Nebraska might offer this week-end. The alumni were
It h.' i appeared to me, that a Man can do nothing
better than follow in the Footsteps of the greater ones
before him, unless he be an extraordinary genius who
needs not the Heritage of the Past to aid him. I have
tried to follow Addison, and for my Essay today I can
think of no better Subject than that suggested by Ad
dison in a certain Paper on Female Orators, these
Creatures always forming interesting Topics for dis
cussion, and Addison's remarks upon them being es
pecially suitable to the Women I have observed on
this Campus.
Addison's female Orators are divided into those
who are employed in stirring up the Passions, those
who deal in Invectives, Gossips, and Coquettes. I have
observed that all of these kinds of Women are present
upon our Campus, albeit the larger part of them fall
into the last two Classes, a Co-ed in ordinary cases
having not enough Energy to stir up the Passions of
her hearers or to peddle Invectives. But I find there
is a fifth Type of female Orator whom Addison could
not htive known, and I venture to say that had he
known this kind of Woman he would have devoted an
entire Essay to her alone.
This Class of Women I shall call the Happy In
anes. To find them one need not go Far, but if he enter
any Sorority House he will see there a goodly Collec
tion of them. This woman chortles and prates inces
santly the whole Day long, nothing being able to stop
her Prattle, for she has been told by some Fool that
Conversation is the Life of the Party. Since her main
Objective in Life is being the Life of the Party, there
is consequently but one path open to Her, and she in
variably chooses it. She has a reserved Seat in the
Cheering section at every Football game, and often
follows the Team to other Cities, provided she can
hoodwink some equally inane Man into taking her.
Often at the Games she cheers at the wrong Moment,
but that does not trouble her for she is never embar
rassed. She knows well enough that anything she says
is discounted in consideration of the Source, and thus
she is exempted from the Troubles some less indiscreet
Women must undergo as the result of a faux paa.
Yet curiously enough, this Woman has always a
noticeable Following of fraternity Boys. They speak
of her 'as a "Good Girl" and divide among themselves
the rare Privileges of escorting her to Social Functions.
All this time, it must be remembered, the happy Inane
is prating and talking, but never saying anything worth
second Thought. She has no Opinions on any Topic,
being content to accept the Conclusions of her Escort,
thus filling her Companion with Pride and self-suf
ficiency. Her power of Judgment is limited to three
Adjectives; a thing is either marvelous, clever, or dumb.
And the most remarkable thing about this type
of Woman is that she receives Grades of from Eighty
to Ninety in practically every Course she Takes, the
Which of course is a melancholy Reflection upon the
state of modern Education.

a tunnel of hay, and a step-ladder.
The formal dress as observed by
the guests were overalls for the men
and aprons for the women. During
the course of the dance, "farmers'
moonstine," in reality, cider, and
sandwiches were served.
According to Elvin Frolil., '30, a
student in the college of agriculture,
the Farmer's Formal showed a de
cided improvement over the one giv
en last year, and this dance, has
come to be second only to the Farm
ers' fair, as an annual activity in the
college of agriculture. 1

bars are urged to cull at any time
during the day to become acquainted
with ttie staff and cabinet of the or

The pledge of membership which
every member gives is as follows:
"The Young Womens' Christian as

braska gladly welcomes Mary Doe
into the fellowship of those who, in
sympathy with its purposes seek to
live as true followers of the Lord
Jesus Christ and accords to her
while she is connected with this in
stitution full rights and privilege of
membership.
Y.M DRIVE IS
SET FOR NOV. 15
(Continued from Page 1)
will be held at the same time and
place. According to Mr. C. D. Hayes,
Y. M. C. A. secretary, it is urgent
that all team members and captains
attend these dinners.
The result of each day's campaign
ing will be kept on a scoreboard di
rectly outside of the Temple build
ing. The teams and captains will be
listed according to their J-anking.
The goal of the campaign was lower
ed this year, due to the fact that
more financial help was given from
the Lincoln community chest. All
contributions under three dollars are
to be cash or deferred checks.
Amounts over that may be given as
pledges.
There will be a pre-campaign
meeting of all of the workers in the
drive, Sunday afternoon, November
13, in the Y. M. C. A. rooms at the
Temple. Final plans for the drive will
be announced at this time.

I print the following communication without Com
ment. To the Spectator:
The joke, my dear Spectator, is on you, O stealthy
and hidden one. As I lay helpless in my cradle some
twenty-one years ago the "pseudonym" with which
you credit me, was bestowed upon me with no voice
from the party most concerned except perhaps a yell
or two that was ascribed to the "tummy-ache." I am
surprised that you believe I should choose such a very
od ious and obvious pseudonym. I have at hand several
that might appeal, but, since anonymoty is distasteful
to me, I resorted to the highly original method of sign
ing my communication with my own name.
I thank you, however, for giving space to my very
feeble effort and with no encouragement whatever, I
shall from time to time submit other efforts, perhaps
even more feeble.
