Governor Dern's statement was made in answer to a question as to' the probable outcome of the Army- j Nebraska game to be played at West Point next Saturday.

At t hat time there were j only four schools in the confer-. ence, lowa, Kansas, .Missouri ana (Nebraska. Pointed for Kansas "Missouri wasn't considered our hardest game then," explained Gov ernor Dern. "We centered our at tention on Kansas." He mentioned that in 1894 Missouri defeated Ne braska, although Nebraska's team was much stronger. When the Cornhusker team whs going to Co lumbia the train on which they were riding was w recked. The team finally reached their destination at 3 o'clock the following morning, getting only three hours' sleep be fore they were routed out to pre pare for the Missouri game. "We had our own way with Mis souri for about the first ten min utes," related the former captain, "showing that we had the strong est team." After that, however, the lark of sleep made its effect upon the Nebraska team and the game was lost to the Tigers..

The band went on the air at 10 o'clock and from that time until 11:30 o'clock the listening public was entertained by a medley of Nebraska songs. During the eve ning many requests were received asking the band to play the "Corn huske."' and "There Is No Place Like Nebraska.

UNIVERSITY CAMPUS GETS POLICE GUARD University campus will be pa trolled for twenty-four hours a day by officers under the Jurisdic tion of the city police department, according to the decision reached at a recent conference between city and university officials.

Make Plenty NolM In the matters of desserts the football men prefer, or as Pres ident Coolidge would say, choose ice cream. They do not especially care for cake, which appears that at least on the football team the cake-eaters are not demoralizing American youth. The nolne the Cornhusker foot ball players make, by their loud and boisterous voices would make Captain Kidd uud his buccaneers sound like children. That Is a part of football, to acowl at the oppos ing team like pirates on a Spanish galleon. Before the Syracuse game it was noted, however, that the team was quieter uud less boisterous.

ML VISIT CAMPUS Sydney-Nebraska Contest Is Set for November 27 At Coliseum INTEREST IS AROUSED Debaters of the University of Sydney, Australia, now on an ex tensive tour of the western states, will meet an all-star team selected from the class in intercollegiate de bating of the University of Ne braska. The contest will be held in the Coliseum, ilnce Grant Me morial hall last year was too small to accommodate the large audience that gathered to hear the first in ternational debate of Nebraska with students of Cambridge uni versity, England. Interest is running high in the schools of eastern Nebraska since the subject of this second interna tional debate is parliamentary gov ernment which is the topic of the league debates In Nebraska this season. For the debate on Tues day, November 27, the wording will be as follows: "The parliamentary system of government Is superior to the presidential form." Innovation Will Be Tried Recent innovations In debating at the University of Nebraska will again be tried in the contest with Sydney. The voting will be by the audience on personal opinion of the merits of the subject discussed. Last year the voting after the de bate with Cambridge ran very close, the visitors from England having some slight advantage of about fifty votes. Ballots this year will be taken both before and after the speaking. Comparative effec Contlnucd on Pace S.

The game with the Army is the biggest on the 10-8 schedule and probably one of the biggest In Hus ker history. If the Cornhuskers can topple Coach "Biff" Jones ag gregation at West I'olnt, their bid for national honors will mount sky ward. The Cornhusker spirit, which has meant so iuuch to Nebraska victories, must accompany the team on their Journey and It is hoped that all who do not have classes at that hour will gather In front of Social Sciences to 6end the team off to victory.

Unusual Sounds Are Attributed To Rehearsals (By A Mere Man) If you ever get a break by land ing a date at any hold-out for Ne braska co-eds, and upon entering the front gate for that date, hear a couple of girls singing soft har mony, don't get the Impression that they are having open house. Two guesses and you win; they're Just rehearsing for King Kosmet's Royal Revue Thanksgiving morn ing. When the Kosmet Klub issued a call for talent, all the girls who had performed for the actives on pledge nights, and believed their talent worth more than the scant admiration accorded them by their sisters, shyly entered their hits In the Kosmet Revue. As a result, the Klub has offers of imitations of certain sorority mothers, and long debates on the subjects, "How High Is Up?" and "Why I Came to College." Real Ability Found However, real ability, the kind that makes four out of every five girls want, has been uncovered, and King Kosmet will offer an as sembly of the vaudeville and dra matic stars of the campus. (Blues singers, the ones that make you glad you came to college, and danc ers, tap and toe, displaying the rare ability that a man will cut classes and go to Omaha to see., Dim lights in the chapter room late at night, muffled voices, inter - spersed with laughter, do not re - veal the fact that a few of the co-eds are being Initiated into one of the campus secret societies, but the fact that they are hard at work to be ready to put their act on the boards, letter-perfect, Thanksgiving morning.
