SCRIMMAGE WITH FROSH Sauer, Masterson Look Good In Offense Against Yearlings. Passing continued to hold the spUlight as Coach Dana Bible's llnskcrs were sent through a long sciimmage against the frosfl Tues day afternoon. Dissatisfied with the accuracy of his passers. Bible intimated that Wednesday s . open workout would see additional .stress placed on the aerials. Geoige Sauer was the most ef fective ground gainer against the yearlings, teaming with Berne Masterson In sweeping the ends and smashing off tackle. Steve Hokuf, Lee Penney and Hub lios wcll were on the receiving end of most of the passes, but many others failed to find their mark. Dible called his men bach for one iov pftor watchintr a suc- iiiuic; I' 1 'V t - . " cession of incomplete passes, ami Masterson responded with a forty vard beauty which fell into the arms of Hokuf. The drill opened with the cus tomary limbering up exercises fol lowed by a passing practice. Dummy scrimmage against a yearling line was next on the pro gram, with the session topped off with a strenuous scrimmage against the freshmen. ' Outstanding in the f rosh defense were Monroe Wilson, a fullback from Dearborn, Mich., whose ef forts bordered on the sensational; Jim McFarland, a tackle from Omaha Central and Vernon Neprud, a guard from Norfolk. The varsity lined up with Hokuf and Roby at the ends, Schleuter and C. Hulbert, tackles; Bishop and DeBua at guards; Ely, center; Miller, quarter; Boswell and Mas terson, halves and Sauer at full back. The remainder of the varsity alternated with this first squad. HARLYLE STAAB, the 150 nmind ball carrier from Ansley appears to be geUi his chaice a. last. For two seasons Staab has o'.aved the role of an also ran, that is. he did until the Huskers met the Colorado Aggies at Denver last year in the final game of the season. It was Staab s spira ana dazzling play that turned the vic tory tide for Nebraska in that game, and you have Coach Bible's word for it. His fine play In the scrimmage affair last Saturday was the signal for a great deal of comment from the fans, and it is almost a cer tainty that Staab will become a regular member of Bible's "pony" backfield, either at quarterback nr at half. Unusually fast and a good blocker in spite of his size, it seems now that Staab is due for a fine season. Incidentally, no one will be happier than his own team mates. From the University of Okla homa student daily comes these two excerpts written by Frank Culwell in his column "Skull Prac tice:" "Nteve Hiikuf, the boy ho Kiiined all America mention a roupie nf yeur ago nn iia end.

All of which sounds very nice and honeyed, specially lha portion which relates how Steve will rip oppofeing lines to bits. As t 'natter of fact, the Cornhuskers will prob al.ly net use Hokuf in the haclc fleld, since Bible has the beBt crop of ball luggers since he took up the football . reins here tour years ago. And that speaks well for the backfield material, as Hokur is an exceptionally hard man to stop once past the line of scrimmage. However, it is quite possible that Hokuf will Bhate some of the punting duties with George Saner, and John Roby, and ho may also assist in the passing department. Notwithstanding the fact thai the University of Missouri claims the cheapest athletic bonk in ths conference and the cheapest nf all the major colleges in the United States, Nebraska is offering its students an all season book lor the same price, $6. Oklahoma is charg ing $7 for activity books, Kansas $9, Iowa State $10 and Kansas State $10. So let's support the campaign now in progress by buying the;;? season books. For many, it will mean some sacrifice, but it is just about as good an investment for ?6 that one can get. PRIZES HO FOR EQUALRIGHTS ESSAY $500 and Washington Trip Will Be Awarded in the Women's Contest. Because "the present generation of college women takes little in terest in the status of women," the National Woman's Party is of fering a first prize consisting of $500 and a trip to Washington, D. C, and a second prize consist ing of $200 and a trip to Wash ington, for the two best essays on any phase of the proposed Equal P.ights amendment to the United States constitution. The amendment reads: "Men and women shall have equal rights throughout the United States and every place subject to its jurisdic tion. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation." Tha competition is open to all undergraduate women students, carrying full time college work. Contestants will be provided wun materia) selected from eleven years of research concerning the iegal status of women. It is hoped, however, that the contest will mo tivate original research, as well as stimulatft the interest of college women in this question. BALL CAME FRIDAY WILL ED SUMMER SOFT BALL LEAGUE Game Between Ag Hall and Agronomy to Finish Last Season. A ball game that is to be made than a bal game is scheduled to be played Friday afternoon at the ag ricultural college between Ag Hall and Animal Industry against Agronomy and Agricultural En gineering. The game will serve as a "revenge" victory for either side. Throughout the summer four teams from as many departments at the ' college were entered in a soft ball league. The Ag Hall nine won the first half of the season but later plans were made to eliminate the split season plan. Hence when the season wound up Agronomy was in tUe lead but with a post poned game to be played with Animal Industry. This has not been played and, if bsaten. Agron omy would be tied with Ag Hall for the leadership. The game Friday, however, will h rptrular baseball. Jesse Living- i ston, minor varsity letterman two years ago, is slated to take the ! mound for the Agronomists and Engineers while Ralph Cole of the rural economis department will probably throw for the other nine. Prof. R. R- Thalman of the animal i husbandry department is expected to catch for the Cole nine.

Brown's Lincoln high school team won the state basketball title with such men as Forris Fisher, "Pinky" Morrison, John Kimball, Dr. Manter Lives on Island for Six Weeks Studying Tropical Marine Life Dr. H. W. Manter, associate pro fessor of zoology, in company with eleven other scientists, spent six weeks this summer at the Car negie Biological station on the is land of Tortugas, one of the Flor ida Keys about eighty miles from Key West. It was Dr. Manter's third summer on the island. The group of scientists is en gaged in the .study of all kinds of marine life in tropical waters. More than three hundred different vari eties and specimens of fish were studied by Dr. Manter and the rest of the group, and he gathered more than two hundred different kinds of trematodes, marine para sites. About one hundred of these had been previously classified. The specimens were gathered by diving, trawling, and by hand. When trawling at 3600 feet, where little or no light penetrates, many queer and unusual specimens were obtained. Among them were lumi nous fish, giving off a faint light. The station from which the sci entists worked is modern in every Sororities Employ Ingenious Means to Evade Panhellanic Rushing Regulation "In ways that are dark and tricks that are vain, the heathen Chinee is peculiar," said someone once. The modern version or mis should certainly be, "In ways that are dark and tricks that are vain sorority rushing is peculiar." No diplomatic corps couia be more ingenious in devising ways and means by which to lawfully violate the rushing rules of the Pan-Hellenic council than the sor orities. A new rule has been installed by the council to the effect that no sorority may give more than two patties during the summer rush ing season. The rule states further that any gathering which includes more than two memDers oi any one group is to be considered a rushing party, ir, however, mere is present at this same function a member or anotner ureeK-Li-ter group, it is not counted in the quota allowed. Whenever there are laws mere are ways of breaking them. After havine eiven the number or parties allowed, one sorority conceived the idea of giving a dinner at which there were approximately thirty nifhees and active members of the sorority. But, in order to avoid the law, without danger of penaliza tion, this group included in the Two Nebraska Coeds for First Time On Prairie Schooner Editorial Staff; Work on Manuscripts Last Summer Last summer, a ti-sditlon was broken in the editorial department of the Prairie Schooner. For the first time in the history of the magazine, women were appointed to serve on the editorial staff. The women who received this unusual honor are Miss Margaret Deming and Miss Dorothy Cook, both undergraduate students and have been exceptionally outstanding in literary fields. Miss Deming is the daughter of Professor H. G. Dem ing and Miss Cook is the daughter of Mrs. Elearore Cook, Cbadron, Nebraska, and the granddaughter of Professor E. H. Barbour, widely known geologist. The girls worked all summer correcting and revising manu scripts which were sent to them from nearly every state In the union. Most of the literary work submitted came from Oregon. New (York and California.

The only connection with the rest of the world is established by a boat which visits the island every two weeks to bring supplies and ice. There are no permanent resi dents on the island with the ex ception of the lighthouse keepers and a game warden. The only in dustry in the locality is fishing, and there are a number of Cuban boats in the vicinity. Giant loggerhead turtles come up on the beach of the island evrey night to lay their eggs. The lighthouse keepers occasionally turn the turtles on their backs, making them powerless to move. Turtle steaks, which the scientists often ate. tasted much like beef, according to Dr. Manter. Sharks also visit the shores of the island at night. The government keeps a game warden stationed at the island all the time to protect the many thousands of terns that go to tor tugas every year to breed. party a member of another organ ization. This girl, of course, was honor bound not to do any rush ing herself or to divulge any of the rushees' names to her own group. Peihaos the bout known of Rll the escapes is the one from the rule forbidding sorority members to call rushees during rush week. The "remedy" for this is simple. In every sorority there is one girl who has already promised to join. She, of course, is not a member ol the sorority and is not, therefore, governed by any of the rules ap plicable to the lushing body. She. then, is detailed to call the girl in question and ascertain her prefer ence. If, as it sometimes happens, there is no such go-between, the rushing chairman of the sorority will call the mother or father of the rushee and plead for clemem. Contrary to the rule, men arc used extensively in rushing. It is almost a universal practice for a sorority to call brothers or men friends of a rushee and ask them to use their influence. In return for this favor he is offered the dubious honor of the pick of the pledges for dates or the suppuil the sorority in any rushing he may wish to do himself. "There's as much fun as there Is work in this kind of a job," the girls exclaimed enthusiastically when they were asked how they liked the work. "While some of the literature," they said, "showed excellent literary ability and utill greater promise, there are still authors who would climb to the heights of literary fame when they lack simple, elementary grammar and are unable to spell correctly." Besides being associate editors of the Prairie Schooner, the girls have received other honors equally as great. Last spring, they were among the three contestants whose YOUR DRUG STORE Oee!
