INNOCENTS IN CHARGE
"Tigers Huskers Who Win and
Lose Gloriously" is the inscription
that will be brazed on a bronze
plate to be fastened to the stand
ard of the .Missouri-Nebraska bell, j
The Innocents soclet. made this
announcement yesterday afternoon
and have ordered the plate from
an art shop in New York City.
The standard, which is being
made under the supervision of
Coach Henry F. Schulte, is nearly
completed and the bell will be fas
tened to its permanent holder
within the next two days. The
bronze plate will be received be
fore the Missouri-Nebraska game
Saturday so that it will be com
plete as a tii.pity to the victor.
While the Missouri Tigers and
the Cornhuskers are warming up
on the field preparatory to what
is considered the greatest battle
of the season, the bell will be car
ried out and presented to a com
mittee of Missouri students, headed
by Frank O. Knight, president of
the Missouri Student Government
association. The bell will be taken
to the Missouri side of the field
and will remain there throughout
the game. After the final whistle j
the bell will again be presented,
either to Missouri again or to Ne
braska. The Innocents society, in charge
of the bell tradition, are making
many changes in the bell's appear
ance. It was first planned that
the bell should be displayed in
front of Social Sciences this week,
but this idea will not be carried
out. The first appearance of the!
bell on the campus will be immed-1
lately before the game Saturday j
when Missouri will receive it in 1
honor of their three-year-victory re
cord over Nebraska.

Smith and Hoover Clubs to Fight It j
Out in Heated Argument at Nebraska
The greatest political storm in
the history of the I'nlversity of
Nebraska is fast gathering. From
one side comes the fierce war-cry
of "Who but Hoover" and from
the other side we hear the notes
of "Fast Side-West Side, All
around the Town;" "Smith" or
"Hoover" Is the password for any
thing now, and woe to the man or
woman who makes a mistake:
But this threatening war, famine,
or whatever it is, must come to
a head sometime. Steps have al
ready been taken to bring all these
troubles to a complete and un
questionable close. After the final
event is over, there will never
more be doubt in the minds of the
university students as to who is
the only, gifted, and logical .man
ior president of the I'nited States
This decisive event will be in
the form of a debate to be held
Thursday, November. 1, by mem
bers of the Hoover-Curtis club,
and members of the Al Smith
club. Powerful combines of three
students for each side will be
formed. These-martyrs-fort he-cause
-of-politics will have ten minutes
apiece to disprove their opponents
statements and. if they have time,
to make a few for their own party.
In order to give these warriors
enough material to fight upon, the
question has been unlimited as
long as it deals with political poli
cies or candidates of the two
parties.
Word conies from the camp of
Cody's hearty Tigers that their vic
tory is certain. Already plans have
been luide for a gala celebiatloU
when their victory is announced.
But also from Matschullet's side
lines we hear only boasts of an
overwhelming score in the Ele
('AntiTiiMft on I'an 4.

to throw itself into the fray to stein the Ode of the on-rushing

The indomitable spirit that is Nebraska's has begun to
