Nebraska Mentor Will Use
Many Reserves In Game
With Bobcats
Coach Ernest E. Bearg will spend
this week grooming his Scarlet and
Cream reserves for the Montanu
State Bobcats who meet the Ne
braska Cornhuskers on Memorial
Stadium sod Saturday afternoon to
open the home football season.
The Husker mentor does not feel
that the Bobcats will be easy pick
ings but in case anything should
happen along that line, the Ne
braska coach will use all his re
eerves, saving the first eleven for
the continuation of the hardest
football schedule in Nebraska grid
iron history. The Syracuse eleven
is booked for the next week and the
Orange are coming to Nebraska to
avenge the defeat handed them
last vear by the Scarlet.
Rvracuse is much stronger thla
season than last and Is headed by
Captain Hal Baysinger. the great
est passing ace that has played on
tbe Husker field In many years. It
will be remembered that the work
of Davsinger last fall brought the
greatest ovation from the stands
that was ever accorded a visiting
player when he left the field.
Concentrate on Montana
But the work of the coaching
staff is now directed towards the
Montana State eleven which comes
to Lincoln this Saturday. The Mon
tana Bobcats are reputed to be
one of the cleverest passing teams
In the Rocky Mountain conference
and the Husker coaching staff is
spending a great amount of time
this week in working up the aerial
defense game.
The Nebraska squad i3 in fairly
good shape after the opening game
with Iowa State, there being only
a few minor Injuries. Tt injured
members of the Nebraska squad
are Harold Peaker, who cracked a
rib in the Cyclone gaum Elmer
Greenberg, sophomore tackle and
Raymond Richards. Richards went
into the Iowa State game with an
injured leg and played a good game
at the tackle post,
Saturday's game is the first meet
ing of the two elevens and will be
viewed by a large crowd. The start
ing lineup has not aa yet been an
nounced but the same lineup that
started against the Cyclones will
probably be used at least for the
opening quarter. Reb Russell,
smashing Cornhusker quarterback
is booked again to carry a big share
of the line driving and yard gaining
fnr Whmslta The 111 Quarter
showed up in great style against
the Cyclones and critics in tue nig

Cablegrams have teen received
from Panama and other hat cen

'here will be a Varsity Party next
Saturday evening. All dancing at
the Fall Frolic will be done on an
Improved floor. The floor will be
posiively icy, but blue shirts will

ee them when they hitch. It Is
hoped that there will be no hitches
In tbe plans of the Varsity Party
committee.
According to a story In the lower
left-hand corner of yesterday's Ne
braskan "Giant Elephants Who
Once Ran Across Campus Can Be
Been in Morrill Hall." This will
JPPeal to those timid souls who
Begrudge riant elenhants their

October Heat
Is 11 Degrees
Above Average
The temperature thus far In Oc
tober would indicate that the scien
tists are wrong In the conclusion
that old Mother Earth is getting
colder.
The average temperature for the
month of October in previous years
is 69 degrees; this month the aver
age has been 70 degrees. The hot
test days of the month were Mon
day and Tuesday of tnls week,
when the average temperature was
89. This high mark lacks only three
degrees of reaching the highest
reading ever taken.
Marked variation is noticeable in
the readings for this month, when
it is discovered that there is a low
mark of 58 and a high one of 89.

Gulli-Curi, Coloratura Soprano
Of Fame Is Treat to Music Lovers
Style of Sinking and?;
Magnetic Personality
Makes Italian Singer
Loved by All
University student lovers of mu
sic will be given an opportunity to
hear the universally famous so
prano, Madame Amelita Galll-Curci
October 17 when the Italian prima
donna presents her concert in the
University Coliseum as one of the
beginning engagements of a conti
nental tour, ultimately ending with
her usual appearance at the Metro
politan opera house in New York.
After she has completed her tour,
she plans to sail for the Orient, one
of the few fields of the globe in
which she has not appeared, even
though she has be'en asked many
times during the past few years to
conduct a concert tour in those
parts.
The diva's program will embrace
two types of singing: that style
containing trills, high range, lilting
quality, and strict enunciation of
words; and that kind of song.i
which appeal to one's deeper emo
tions rather than to one's admira
tion. Always Pleases Audiences
Galli Curci desires always to
please her audiences, and in choos
ing her encores tries to select from
her unlimited repertoire those
which seem best to coincide with
the pervading atmosphere of the
room. One time she wa3 known to
have concluded a brilliant program
with that simple yet stirring mel
ody, "Home Sweet Home."
Galli Curci's interests are not all,
however, developed along musical
lines, for her intellect is of such
a highly developed type, her ideas
on any subject are brilliant and
original. She has, in her near-circling
globe experiences' acquired a
culture which, when combined with
her maenetic personality as a
woman rather than that of a suc
cessful grand opera singer make
her. Indeed, an object of wonder at
one person being versatile to such
a great extent along so many
branches of activity.
Her audiences In every city have
been capacity crowds. In Minneapo
lis an auditorium with a seating ca
pacity of 9,000 was filled to its
limit, and In Kansas City and Pe
oria crowds of 5,000 and 4,000 wore
accommodated during her concerts
there. Tickets for the performance
next Wednesday may be had at the
Ross B. Curtice Co., at the corner
of Thirteenth and O streets.

NOTED SPORT WRITER
VIEWS CORNHUSKERS
Lawrence Perry Visits Camp
of Nebraska Football
Squad this Week
Lawrence Perry, one of the na
tion's foremost football writers,
who travels all over the United
States getting first hand knowledge
of football teams, was In Lincoln
Monday to look over the Nebraska
Cornhuskers. Mr. Perry believes
football has accomplished one
greaf thing. It takes away sectional
feeling.
'When I started traveling over
the country six years ago It was
the west coast against the east
coast or the middlewest against the
south or the south against the east.
Now football fans know that the
team with the best material and
best caching wins regardless of
what section It halls from and as
long as It plays good football It
wins the plaudits of all parts of
the land," he said.
Mr. Perry, always on tbe lookout
for trick formations, declares that
there are none. All of the better
teaus use sound football and stay
away from the trick stuff. He
thinks the most remarkable player
in the country is a Hawaiian now
perfotmlng at halfback for Paul
Schissler at Oregon State.
Olson ! Here.
Olson ! Here.
No, this is not a misprint,
merely roll call at the next Stu
dent Council meeting. Carl Ol
son and Clara Olson, senior
man-at-large and senior woman-at-large
respectively, brother
and sister, will answer tne roll
call. Never before has a brother
and sister been on the student
council, at least not Olson's.
Carl was elected last spring
as one of the two senior men-at-large
and Clara was elected
as senior woman-at-large. Carl
received 938 votes last spring
and Clara polled 997 votes in
the fall election yesterday.

Matschullet, president of the club.
At the last meeting several reso
lutions were passed the most im

arette advertisement on the back
cover of the 'Frosh' number of the
Awgwan which was released this
morning.
Upper-classmen as well as fresh
men were seen hurrying to the
news-stands to secure a copy of
the first Awgwan to appear this
year. The first to catch the eye
is the colorful front cover on which
James Pickering has cleverly
shown how the freshmen had their
pictures taken for their identifica
tion cards.
The thirty-two pages in the Oc
tober Issue of the fun book which
Is sponsored by the Nebraska
chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, ua
tioual professional journalistic tia
teruity, are unusual in their line.
Among them are Margate! Ket
ring's extraordinary fi out piece with
five dainty co-eds and erse with
each one, to say nothing of tin
sparkling short jokes aud quibs
contributed largely by Marguerite
Danielson and Douglas Ti tunic r
man. Scattered through the pages
are many clever cartoons drawn
by Alan Klein, Gay Williams, and
Ray Crabtree with one page given
over to the poem "Flirtation" by
Henry Hraintrd and another to
Bill McCleery who wrote a distinc
tive feature story "Chester the
Court Jester."
Kenneth G. Anderson the editor
of the Awgwan Is assisted by h
large nun er of students who com
prise the editorial, business and
art staffs.
