Sophs Lead
Boxing was next on the card and
again the sophomores triumphed
over the yearlings. Alter the box
ing matches, the scene of activity
shifted to the stadium where the
tug-o-war was listed as the next
event. Twenty freshmen wearing
the war colors, pulled the sopho
mores over the line and into the
water. The next event was the bull
pen in which the second year men
won, capturing four men to the
three imprisoned by the yearlings.
The score now stood 35 to 20.
The pole rush loomed up as the
climax to the whole program. Will

rushed the pole, forming a pyramid
at the foot of it. But the sophs

Actress Stops Show for Twenty-Five
Minutes and Leisurely Dresses Locks
(By Don Carlson)
Waiting two and a half hours In
a dark corner of the house for a
lone sophomore might not be as
bad as having the University Play
ers production, "Two Girls Wanted"
held up for twenty-five minutes
while one youthful femlnlue act
ress combs her hair.
With due consideration for the
Price the world pays for Its fem
inine beauty, this is what actually
happened. While patrons fretted,
whispered, twisted and talked
about anything Interesting for
twenty-five minutes, a young lady,
aspirant for dramatic recognition,
combed her long black vrn
tresses.
Life Behind the Footlights
Little things like that, however,
are not really so outstanding as
one would imagine but part of the
life behind the scenes during an
University Players production. Life
behind the footlights, and the gla
mour of the audience, presents its
niore serious aspects besides Its in
tentional thrill. How well one does
remember the time when he first
spoke to an audience, in the role
of a glHdlator, vllllan, or even a
hero, perhaps.
The long hours of rehearsal,
meats spent in memorizing lines,

Girl in Purple
Hat Is Wanted
By NJ.U. Man
A certain Nebraska blonde might
become somewhat light-beaded If
she could read a poem sent to the
Nebraskan from Topeka, Kansas.
One of the Cornhusker school's
prize co-eds has stirred a New
York University man until he has
stooped, or risen to that level of
human emotion when poetry flows
from the heart like tooth-paste
from Its tube.
"1 danced with a lady In a pur
ple hat," explained the gentleman
from Kansas, "and forgot to get
her name and address." The affair,
If any. took place at the Varsity
Party following the K. U.-Nebraska
game last Saturday in Lawrence,
Kansas. The gentleman In the case
danced with a blonde in a purple
hat who apparently stole bis heart
or watch, as he is determined to
hear from her.
The poem will not be printed.
But the blonde of purple-hat fame
may receive her self-Inspired poem
by asking for It at the Neuraskan
office. She may also get the name
and address of the man with whom
she has so decidedly scored.

SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR
Student Activities Hall
Is Scene of Third
Annual Dance
Third annual Farmers Formal
was held Saturday Nov. 9, in the
Student Activities building on the
Ag campus. Students, and faculty,
who partook of the traditional fes
tivity, appeared in official farm
garb. Many different brands, styles,
and colors of overalls were in evi
dence. Calico predominated among
the co-eds, some aprons were long,
some short, others plain, and a few
elaborate.
The atmosphere and surround
ings were featured by oak bough
decorations. The dance floor, an
open garden, was enclosed within
a picket fence entangled with
shrubbery. Miniature oak trees
lined the rectangular garden. The
lights had been transformed Into
stars and the horizon at the ex
treme east end of the floor peered
a moon from the balcony. In the
center of the floor was a bird bath
which gave the final touch of the
out-of-doors.
"Cornhuskers" Play
Amid the autumn decorations on
the north side of the floor was
Tommy Thompkln's "Cornhuskers",
who furnished music for the danc
ing. New and novel entertainment
was featured by the old time or
chestra composed of Clifford Web
ster, harmonica; Gilbert Webster,
piano; Harold Markee, banjo; and
Jerry Hedges, saxophone. The cli
max of the fun was reached when
a convict dashed through the
crowd. The escaped maniac was
pursued by a group of angry farm
ers and policemen but he evaded
them.
The ticket sales indicate that
there were over three hundred stu
dents and faculty guests present.

Consternation, horror and amaze

Daily Nebraskan announced that
plans were being made to Insure
strict enforcement of the eight
eenth amendment at the tea dance
which the Y. W. C. A. Is staging
Monday afternoon from 3 until 5
o'clock at Ellen Smith hall for all
University women, although the
decorations and entertainment com

plans for Installing a huge bar at
one end of the building.
Further the story informed all
readers that oak boughs would be
suspended from the celling, and be
hind the elaborate white picket
fence and bower which were to be
among the main features of the dec

benches for the benefit of those
who were "sitting out.' It was an

that the dancers would be able to
