RED CROSS PLANS 1
Herbert Gish Leads Cam
paign to Relieve Suffer
ers Near Walthill
Beginning a movement to aid
homeless families In the Walthill
district in northeast Nebraska,
which was recently devastated by
tornado, Herbert Gish, director of
athletics, has been chosen by the
Iancaster county Red Cross to
collect donations from students
and faculty.
Mr. Gish stated yesterday that
although donations are being col
lecte.1 nation-wide for the relief of
the Florida area which recently
suffered from a tornado, Nebraska
donations would be used entirely
for relief in the Walthill district.
According to the directors of ath
letics, Chancellor E. A. Burnett
has heartily approved the move
for the restoration of homes and
property in the stricken area and
the collection of donations from
those students and faculty who
are interested in aiding.
In the recent storms which this
district has experienced, many
people are left homeless and food,
clothing and medical attention are
needed. All donations from Uni
versity students and faculty are to
be mailed to the director or am-
letics, Herbert Gish, In care of the
University.

SCHOOL PARTIES
Coliseum Is Picked as Place
To Stage Varsity Parties
During Season
SIX PARTIES SCHEDULED
Chairman Issues a Request
For Cooperation of the
Greek Societies
"Fall Frolic," first varsity party
of the 1928-29 season will take
place in the Coliseum on Saturday
evening, October 13. The "frolic"
will 'start what, is being looked
forward to as the most successful
season for varsity dances. There
will be five other parties held at
the Coliseum during the course of
the present school year.
Committees have not yet been
selected to handle the varsity dan
ces, but a call for applicants will
be made during the next few
weeks. The Coliseum is considered
more adaptable to varsity dances
this year because of the changes
that have been made in the ground
surrounding it. The building Is now
a part of the campus and parking
facilities have been improved.
The support of Greek letter or
ganizations on the campus is ur
gently requested by Jack Elliott,
varsity party chairman. It is hoped
!hat fraternities and sororities will
not schedule house dances or other
parties on the dates listed below
as varsity dance evenings. The

Badges Will Distinguish the
New Girls From Those of
UDDer Classes
According to tne Mortar Boara,
the honorary senior women's or
ganization, green buttons will again
be worn by the lady freshmen.
This will mark the fifth year that
the "green, button" has distin
guished the freshmen from the up
per classwoman.
A greater significance of the but
ton will be that it will bring the
members of the class of '32 tn
closer contact, and a closer rela
tionship combined with friendship.
The buttons may be obtained
from the Rudge & Gueniel depart
ment store, free of charge.
FRESHMEN ARE SLOW
TO SECUF HOOKS
One Thousand Are Distrib
uted, But Majority Still
Uncalled For
Altho' approximately one thou
sand "N" books have already been
given out to the newly enrolled
members of the University, there
is still a great majority of fresh
men who have not received them.
These books are distributed by
both the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W.
C. A., Mr. C. D. Hayes and Miss
Erma Annlebv. General Secretaries
of their respective organizations,
being in charge.
According to Mr. Hayes, "Since
these books contain everything
that a new member of the Univer
sity should know, it is essential
that each and every newly matri
culated student have one.
"All persons who have no card
or have lost their card which en
titles them to one of these book
lets free may still receive a book
by proper identification of them
selves as freshmen of the Univer
sity. All other students may se
cure one by paying the actual cost
of the booklet, which is twenty-five
cents.
"As long as the university at
tempts to aid the new students by
the publication of these books, each
student should make it his or her
duty to take advantage of this
splendid offer."

the schedule that is thought to be the hardest ever handed to a Nebraska football team Co-Captains Elmer
Holm and "Blue" Howell will be in the lineup to take their share of the burden. On the thielines Coach

Husker Tackle
Wears Unique
Football Gear
Marion Broadstone, a promising
candidate for lineman position on
the Cornhusker football squad, is
the possessor of a unique football
helmet.
Broadstone finds it necessary to
wear glasses. That is a handicap
which was considered a difficult
one to overcome a few years ago.
Old style spectacle protectors were
impractical and dangerous. But a
new helmet has been devised
which offers complete protection
and fairly satisfactory vision.
The helmet is built like an ordin
ary one as far as the lower edge
of the crown. There the resem
blance ceases. Instead of the open
ing for the face, a heavy shield ex
tends down over the nose. This
shield is cut around the eyes to
allow the Insertion of a pair of
optical lenses which correct the in
accuracy of the wearer's vision.
The lenses are made of a special
shatter-proof glass which elimin
ates all danger of breakage.
As might be expected, the head
gear limits the vision a trifle, but
in spite of the fact it is an effi
cient protection for a player who
finds his vision impaired without
classes.
Broadstone s helmet is one ol ;
about two dozen in the country.

Men May Warm

Believe it or not, Lincoln, the
capital city of the state, may be
host to a number of Olympic ath
letes in 1932 if Coach Henry
Schulte's present plans niaterializa.
When he was touring Europe as
an Olympic coach and in charge of
American athletes, he was looking
four years ahead and as a result
Nebraska people may get a chance
to see some of the best athletes of
Europe.
Coach Schulte has suggested t3
the athletic commissions in such as
Germany, Sweden, Finland anl
France that they break the long
cross country ride to the world
games at Los Angeles in 1932 by
stopping in Lincoln.
According to Schulte, his sugges
tion has met with the hearty ap
proval of foreign athletes, and lie
may, if possible, hold a track and
field meet here if the European
contingent plan to stop in Lincoln.

Calls for Text Books Are
Greater Than Supply
in Some Lines
Totalling the greatest amount of
sales since its origination two
years ago, lhe Student. Book Ex
change today completed its first
day of sales with an apparent
shortage of books for many dif
ferent subjects. According to Mr.
Wilbur Mead, head of the Book
Exchange committee, "many dif
ferent classes of books were sold
out after the first morning classes
were dismissed."
Students are quick to take ad
vantage of the decided reductions
from the original cost of these
books which are received from
students of the University who set
their own price. Except for a
small commission taken by the
book exchange committee, the
money received for each book will
be turned over to the owner as
soon as his respective book is
sold. The students buying these
books nut only benefit themselves
by the practice of economy, but
they also help buy books for those
students who are financially un
able to buy their own books year
after year."
According to Mr. C. D. Hayes,
General Secretary of the Univer
sity Y. M. C. A., "Approximately
7000 books have been sold by the
committee since its origination."
Mr. Hayes further advises, that
since there is such a demand for
books which have already been
completely sold out, all those stu
dents who still have books of
their own for which they have no
further use, should turn them in
as soon as possible In order that
others may take advantage of
these bargains.

STUDENT TICKETS GO

Buyers Will Be Permitted to
See All Athletic Events
Of the School
PRICE IS NOT CHANGED
Student athletic tickets may be
obtained at the Student Activities
office in the University Coliseum
on Friday, September 2R, as wivt
announced Wednesday by John K:
Selleck, athletic business manager.
Although the price for students
remains $8.50, baseball has been
t.rid-d to the program, thus admit
ting each student purchaser to ell
home baseball games, as well as
the home football games, basket
ball games, wrestling contests, and
track meets. Quite a number of
baseball games are to be scheduled
on the home diamond, and will be
announced later.
Students Only Can Buy.
This special price is for students
only. Outsldes must pay $11.00 for
teason football tickets alone, while
students are admitted to all con
tests for only $8.50. To make sure
lhat only students take advantage
of this special offer, purchasers of
student tickets must present their
unlversit y identification cards.
These cards will be punched wben
the owners receive tickets, prevent
ing the sale of more than one book
to a student. This new plan wilj
increase instead of decrease the
total receipts from tickets sales, as
the. positive identification will pre
vent the purchase of student tickets
by outsiders. One person may pur
c hase tickets for a group, however,
by bringing the identification cards
of each member of the group.
The sale of tickets for the offi
cial cheering section also begins

STYLE OF GREEN CAPS
Button and Class Numer
als New Features; Sale
Now in Progress
Green caps for freshmen will
soon make their appearance on the
Nebraska campus with slight alter
ations in style over previous years.
Following one of Nebraska's oldest
traditions, freshmen will be re
quired to wear this headgear until
the day of Olympics at which time
it is decided as to whether they
must continue to wear the caps or
whether they may discard them.
Green tickets have been Issued
during the three days of registra
tion and will be sold during convo
cation Thursday, Sept 27.
Is Old Tradition
The wearing of the green cap at
Nebraska became a privilege which
few students wish denied or thrown
aside. The wearing of these caps is
one of the oldest and most honored
traditions on the Nebraska campus
and one which has been followed
faithfully by freshman classes for
many years.
The style and design of the cap
has changed from time to time al
though the prevailing color has
been green with decorations of red
buttons or strips. The Innocents so
ciety, having charge of the green
caps, has modeled the cap this year
from that used in eastern schools.
It has a very short bill with the
number thirty-two in red numerals
on the front. The cap is rounded
out with a green button on the top.
The names of all freshmen buy
ing caps will be taken and a check
will be made to see that all fresh
man men have them.
Foreign Nations Arouse New Athletic
Interest, Says Olympic Coach Schulte
"Europeans, especially the Ger
mans, are steadily building up na
tional athletics," says Coach Henry
F. Schulte, who coached on the
Olympic team -this summer.
He continues, "There are reason
for this. One is that the abolish
ment of compulsory military train
ing gives the men a chance to put
buuiw of Uioh' Uuie aud effort Into
athletic training. The other reason
for the rise of athletics In Europe
is that the people believe that
athletics are good for the nation.
The government of each country
is backing athletics to a great
extent Each town has its ath
letic fields, such as tennis
courts and football fiells. In each
meet there are contests for the
younger men, and many of these
show great possibilities.
"Although Germany leads in this
new athletic interest, other coun
tries are not far behind. Largo
crowds attend each game, showing
that the people are vitally inter
ested In the athletic events."
Coach Schulte also Raya that the
people who attend the games are
very intellectual concerning the
finer points of athletics. The an
nouncer does not have- to tell that
