(Special to The Daily Nobrnskan) Although stopping tlie great Catrlo, scarlet clad warriors from Nebraska were unable to check the Army and dropped Saturday's tilt 13 to ;. Playing under cloud filled skies in Miehie stadium overlooking the United States Military academy, the "Powerhouse" from the West suffered its first defeat of the season. The first quarter went decidedly to the West Pointers. Initiating their passing game on the first play, the soldiers passed, and ran ends well into Cornhusker territory before the big lied team finally held them for downs. Sloan punted the oval out of danger and, as the quarter finished, Nebraska set tled down to the business of conquering Ihe Army. In the second quarter Nebraska was hot. Howell, Sloan, Kussell and Farley ran the ends, crashed the line and com pleted a series of short passes, advancing the ball to a point of advantage. With their own goal posts uncomfortably near, the. Army tightened its line and forced Sloan to attempt his second field goal of the day. This time it was successful. The second half opened with the Cadets displaying brilliant form.

Other speakers were Dean James F. LeRosslgr.ol, Mr. Galloway, and Prof. Clifford D. Spanglor.

Cadet Officers Outshine Other Cakes ' As Date of Military Ball Approaches From now until after the Mili tary Ball civilian 'cakes' might as well withdraw from the competi tion. Cadet officers will escort their spor.sors to the first formal. The officers will be dressed in those hot-looking uniforms and will probably get a huge house with the certain lady. Of course that doesn't excuse men outside of the army from not attending the Military ball. When it comes right down to It there is no alternative. If one ever ex pects to rate on the Nebraska campus he must attend the Mili tary ball. It is a tradition that those who don't go will never amount to anything. Some Are Left Behind. Y'ou will notice in another col umn of the Nebraskan the an nouncement concerning sponsors. Perhaps you are one of the co-eds who has been left behind like a sailor's sweetheart.

Score: Ne braska 3, Army 6. Darkness Sets In Late in third quarter darkness set in and, from then on. it was virtually a twilight game. The ball sailing through the air was invis ible to the stands and practically so to the players. With but four remaining minutes to play, an Army end snatched the ball out of the ligluless atmosphere and touched it behind Nebraska's goal for the second Army touchdown. This time the Army made the kick. The score read, Army 13, Nebras ka 3, where It remained for the rest of the game. Nebraska Wins Toss Nebraska won the tors and elec ted to kick off against the Cadets, Sloan booting the oval to the Array 20-yard line. On tho opening play, the" Army eleven cut loose with their winning pass attack.
