Women's Pep Organization
Athletic Ducat Campaign by Selling a Total
Of 1,450 Student Athetic Tickets.
WEEK'S PROGRAM ENDS
Roma DeBrown, Ann Bunting Lead Saleswomen With
Tie for High Honors With 96 Each Sold; 21
Receive Free Athletic Books for Year.
Leaving all previous athletic ticket sales records broken
behind them, the Tassels, women's pep organization, Saturday
completed the most successful sales drive ever staged at Ne
braska with 1450 student and over 200 adult tickets sold for a
total of 1650. These figures did not include faculty tickets
which would swell the totals considerably.
A definite comparison with figures for last year was not
available Saturday night, but it is thought that over 250 books
more than last year were sold. Athletic department officials,
administration heads, and ofneerso
of Tassels pronounced the drive
success from every viewpoint and
were well pleased witn results.
Last Minute Rush.
The Tassels worked up to the
last minute before the game, try
irujto sell laat-minute stragglers
and what few students might not
have been approached. Many stu
dents who hesitated in buying
earlier in the week purchased
tickets Saturday with the result
that the athletic office was unusu
ally busy Saturday morning.
The Friday noon checkup re
vealed sales since Thursday of 136
while an additional 143 tickets
were sold before the drive ended
at 2 o'clock Saturday. Salesmen
reported that the number of un
affiliated students buying tickets
greatly exceeded that of last jail
and was no doubt responsible for
much of the increase in sales.
Tie for High Honors.
The race for individual selling
honors ended in a tie with Ann
Bunting and Roma DeBrown each
credited with 9.. sales. A total
of twenty-one girls had sold thirty
five or more tickets and therefore
received season tickets as prizes, it
was announced Saturday night,
after the checkup. The six highest
salesmen, who will receive trips to
the Missouri game free, as a re
ward, and the number sold by each

Brown, 96 each; Mary Reimers, 66
Ttaelma Sterkel. 61: Leona Pollard,

Meet in Stadium.
With student spirit reaching its
heighth in preparation for Uie
Texas game, almost two thousand
football-minded students gathered
in Memorial stadium Friday night
to sing, applaud, and cheer as
Coaches D. X. Bible and Henry
Schulte addressed the throng and
presented the 1933 edition of the
Nebraska Cornhuskers.
The rally was one of the great
est in Nebraska history and was
but little exceeded by that before
the Pittsburgh classic last year.
Forming at the Temple at 7 o'clock
under direction of the Innocents
society, and with assistance from
Tassels and Corn Cobs, women's
and men's pep organizations, the
procession proceeded east on R
street on foot and in cars, cheer
ing and singing lustily as the Ne
braska band played the fight
songs.
At Sixteenth street, the crowd
turned north and proceeded up so

Tassels and Corn Cobs routed out
inmates of houses to join the raljy.
At Vine street, the procession
turned west and marched past the
Coliseum to the stadium where stu
dents mobbed the entrances in an
eager effort to be the first inside.
Head Coach Bible, addressing
the assemblage, declared that
Texas was no setup for the team,
and would give the Cornhuskers a
tough battle. "However," Bible
continued, "with the student body

it to be, you can be sure the team

Lincoln football fans will this

The grid-graph is a board, thir
teen feet long and eight feet wide,
which reproduces the game by
means of electric flashes and
aims. Three men work at the back
of the graph, operating switches
which turn on lights by the name
of the player who is carrying the
ball, the tackier, and the kind of
play used. Watchers will follow
the ball by watching an electric
light move on a lined screen grid
iron. A direct wire from the play

ports from an operator there to
another in the coliseum, who will

student and faculty directory from
50 cents to 35 cents is announced
today by Bernard Jennings, busi
ness manager of this publication,

possible," he explained.

"The excellent co-operation dis
played by the students and faculty
in the correcting of the lists whicn
were posted has aided considerably
in elimination of errors from the
directory," said Frank Crabill,
editor.
Correction of the lists is also
being conducted by the Lincoln

made to obtain accurate listings
of telephone numbers. The ad
