HUSKER SPIRIT PREVAILS Rallying behind the Tassels and Corn Cobs, and the university band, over 200 students staged the second rally of the annual athletic ticket campaign last night at Car rie Bell Raymond hall.

"I feel that this year, more than ever before, the Nebraska spirit has been more prevelant among the girls. We expect over 80 percent to buy season tickets." Nebraska yells, led by Emmet Morava, and numerous selections by the R. O. T. C. band, kept the enthusiasm of the gathering at a high pitch during threvening, "and put the rallv over with a bang." "I thought that the rally was grand. Evtryone seemed so full of enthusiasm," declared Anne Bunt ing, president of Tassels. "I think that we will go over the top in the ticket sale campaign if the drive la carried on as successfully as it has been the past two days." ti, c-iria nt the dormitory in tend to have a separate block at the stadium, according to ui. liamson.

E APPROVAL OF 'HELLO DAY1 Dean Heppner, Margaret Buol and Lucille Reilly Endorse Event. Active support of the annual "Hello Day," sponsored by Mortar Board, senior honorary society for women, from leaders of women's activities was indicated in state ments made yesterday by their statements on the event. Adminis trative heads also expressed their approval of the plan. The purpose of "Hello Day" is to create a united Cornhusker spirit and to assure and promote a bet ter feeling of co-operation among all university students. All fesh- men wearing the scorlet and cream caps and buttons are greeted with the well known salutation by up perclassmen nnd members of the faculty. Margaret Bool, presMcnt of the A. W. S. Board expressed her opin ion by saying "I think it is a fine idea because it should create a feeling of friendship and co-operation between freshmen and upper classmen." "Hello Day' is a freshman's op portunity to 'show their willingness to become part of the university life," stated Dean Amanda Hepp ner. "They should take the initia tive and not wait for the upper classmen to insist on drawing them into activities. If 'Hello Day' is to be a success both the freshmen and the uppcrclassmon must co-operate in making it so." Lucille Reilly, president of the Big Sister Board, was heartily in accord with the idea. " 'Hello Day' should start a feeling of friendli ness and school spirit which should continue and grow throughout the year.

WOMEN S GROUPS V PEP CLUB SHOWS ORIVE'S RESULTS AT NOON MEETING Tassels Report Athletic Ticket Sales at Meeting. BROWNE, SAUER SPEAK Three High Saleswomen Are DeBrown, Bunting and Woodruth. "With Tassels well into the second day of their intensive athletic ticket sale drive, their second noon pep luncheon Tuesday pave the first indica tions of the drive's real prog ress. Basketball Coach Harold W. Browne and George Sauer, varsity lettcrman spoke briefly to the more than fifty pepsters present. The first check of ticket sales was begun as individual sales women reported their success, and although totals for each of the six teams were not completed Tues day night, high individuals re vealed at the luncheon were Roma DeBrown, with 55 tickets sold, Anne Bunting, 34, and Elaine Woodruth, 32. First definite reports of total sales will not be available until a thorough count has been com pleted. It was indicated that a report would be ready for the Wed nesday noon luncheon. "In spite of lack of actual re ports, I am inclined to be happy about the drive so far," declared Miss Bunting, Tassel president. "There's every indication that the campaign to make the campus 'ticket conscious' is succeeding, and by Wednesday night we will, I think, be able to report success of the sale. "The girls have been grand, and every one of them is certainly (Continued on Page 4.) New Groups Organized as Consequence of Meeting. SPORTS ARE DISCUSSED Meeting at the Temple building Tuesday night, the barb inter-club council discussed organization it several new barb clubs and pro motion of unaffiliated men in cam pus activities, according to a re port received following the meet ing. Half of all those present at the meeting were new men, ac cording to Vernon Filley, spokes man for the group, and all are anxious to further barb organiza tion of the campus. One immediate action to result from the meeting Tuesday is the organization of three barb clubs on Ag college campus, according to Filley. The inter-club council will serve as a co-ordinating cen ter for all the separate clubs, r.s they will all eventually affiliate with the council. Intramural athletics occupied an important place in the discussion at the meeting, it was reported. The athletic department is anxi ous to co-operate in getting the Intramural athletics program un der way immediately. It was be lieved at the meeting that the pro gram may be in action in less than a month, Filley said. Athlete and Cheer Leader Create Mirth At Pep Catherines Plenty of pep was still in evi dence at the Tassels' pep meeting Tuesday noon. Perhaps enthusiasm was running higher, for the Carrie Belle Raymond hall girls were learning the songs and singing them with plenty of spirit. Incidentally, Tuesday's singing disclosed some excellent low and high voices among the Tassels. "Kight, Nebraska, Fight," and "Delta Tau" (for Sauer) had their weak moments, but a semi-bass-soprano combination saved the songs. The Tassels think Thelma Stcr kel is a pn tty good song and cheer leader, even though Thelma did get her hands going the wrcng way Tuesday, resulting in a rather ignominious end of a "Yea Bo" cheer for the basketball team. Coach Browne says it won't be the Tassels fault if Sauer loses his footing during the Texas game Gaturday. George didn't want to stand up Tuesday, but the Tassels have that something, and George stood up. The Tassels have another strong supporter in D. X. Bible. Bible has a small daughter, who, he says, will some day be a Tassel if he baa anything to say about It. "DX" maintains that he is Just as proud of that fact as if he had a son who might grow up to be a great foot ball player some day. "The Tassels can oftentimes In spire the team to greater efforts than the coach himself." Bible de clared. "It really means a lot to have them out there rooting for ua."

Rine-hart-Marsden, Inc., will take the pictures for this year's annual. Their studio is located at 11th and P streets in the Capital hotel.

The complete list revealed that every fraternity on tho campus with one exception had complied with the urgent request of the alumni executive committee to appoint an alumni member to represent them in the alumni or ganisation. While no definite steps hava been taken as yet to call a meeting of the newly elected representa tives, it was stated yesterday that within the next few days the fac ulty advisory committee of the in terfraternity council would appoint a committee of seven who will elect officers and call the meeting; of the alumni group. "The completion of the official list of alumni, who will represent the active chapters now existing on the campus, is the first tangible and definite step the organization has made toward completion of this most important project," de clared Max Meyer, chairman pf the temporary committee selected arbitrarily to get organization plans tinder way. While it was definitely under stood that the organization will not be connected with the university administration, members of the organization stated yesterday that tbey will ask Dean Thompson to call the first meeting of the organ ization together, in the near future. "We want it understood that the alumni council is not trying to take over the business of the under graduate interfraternity council," stated B. I. Noble, member of the temporary committee in charge of arrangements for the organization. "The active chapters choose their alumni representatives because such a group, ordinarily, will be able t i deal with some of the fra ternity problems in a more effi cient manner than undergraduates might be able to do." "We are certainly optimistic over this first major accomplish ment." added Max Meyer. "When complete arrangements have been set up. we will be ready to swing into action, working together as a group." The complete list of the alumni (Continued on Page 4.)

It took the Tas sels a long time to get bashful George Sauer to stand up. but after singing "Standup George Sauer, Standup" about seven times, George finally acquiesced. "I am glad the Tassels will be on hand next Saturday." Coach Browne stated. "Maybe they will sing this song again and keep Sauer on his feet all through the game." A feature of the luncheon was the replacement of the customary coffee by cocoa, and after observ ing the exuberating effects of the drink upon the Tassels, it is quit possible that cocoa may take its place along with many other drinks aa a pep-instilling concoc tion. Gingerbread w as also on the day's menu, although it seemed unnecessary as the girls displayed plenty of "finger" during lha meeting. n o
