Workers Install Book Shelves in Library Cellar Workmen will be busy In the basement of the university library this week installing new steel book stacks which will shelve 40,000 needed volumes now kept in vari- , ous storage rooms over the cam pus. When the work is finished, probably by Nov. 15, students will find not only the books of the state historical society museum avail able in the library basement, but t all books pertaining to history. At the present not more than 1,000 volumes now in storage, will be brought in to supplement the historical society library, Gilbert Doane, librarian, stated. This will leave shelving space for about 28, 000 additional historical books which will be added within the next four years. The university li brary averages aobut 7,000 new books each year. "We are not bringing in new books In anv appreciable amount," Mr. Doane said. "Of the 300,000 volumes which are listed as the property of our library, 200,000 will still be Kept ouisiae mis buildlnc."

No independents on men a tickets means a battle royal be tween the two factions; a record number of Sweetheart and Colonel aspirants will result in a split, but nevertheless greater in aggregate, general vote. Echoes of the Mortar Board resolution reaffirming the society's stand against intersorority politics rang from the announcement oi women's candidates. With every major sorority presenting a candi date for the election, suspicions that any alliances exist cannot be reasonable. No records of previous years come to the aid of would-be po litical prophets; progressives have two spring and one fall elections in their belt in the last two years, but still the Green Togas were vic torious at last fall's ballot spree. That a strong barb representa tion will be evident this year is foreseen in the fact that two barb women have filed for the respec tive women's offices. This attempt of unaffiliated women to break into electoral circles normally dominated by sororities will re ceive the support of all organized barbs, and result in greater strength of the progressive slate at the same time. Both factions spent the week end seeking support in sorority houses, a source of votes less de terminable than the traditional barb electorate, and both parties will make a final bid for ballots at rallies late Monday night. Ac cording to custom, the ureen Togas first proceed down sorority row in lockstep. aided by Hares and locker room quartet.

Miss Clinchard is from Balboa Heights, Canal Zone, and Miss Henderson from Hardy, Ne braska. Both girls are seniors in the college of agriculture, and were elected by popular vote of the men present at the dance. Over 600 students attended the affair, considered as the highlight of the fall social season on the Holdrege campus. The presenta tion occurred at 10:30 on a stage decorated as a fall corn field. Miss Henderson, the attendant, was seen wandering thru the corn stalks and autumn leaves search ing for the queen. When she came to a large pumpkin In the center of the stage, Miss Clinchard, broke thru, and everyone shouted, "All hail, Connie Clinchard, queen."

Try-outs for the university de bate team will be held on Thurs day evening, Nov. 21. Any man who has been at the university one year may compete in these trials, Debaters are cnosen Dy judges ap pointed to hear them. After takine tnree Dauois xo reach a decision, Missouri Valley universities have voted in favor of using the agricultural adjustment subject this season. The wording of the proposition, subject to slight changes, is, "Resolved, mat tne Agricultural Adjustment Act is detrimental to the best interests of agriculture." Arrangements for the initial de bates this year have been delayed until now because of tne delay in deciding what the topic of debate would be. University oenaiers, however, are already beginning to work up a new case on this topic. Material on the agricultural sub ject is available in the university library. Last year over fifteen success ful debates were held on a similar topic before farm audiences in Ne braska, Kansas, and Iowa. The State college of Iowa has again requested that Nebraska send team to Ames and to some other towns in Iowa to discuss the sub ject before county agricultural groups. It is likely that this will be the topic chosen for a proposed assembly to be held in Topeka in January with several colleges par ticipating in & general forum dis cussion. The subject this year for Pi Kappa Delta, will be, "Resolved, that Congress should have the power by a two-thirds vote to de clare effective any law rendered MISS CLINCHARD PRESENTED QUEEN unconstitutional by the Supreme Court" A second try-out on the Supreme Court subject will be held some time during the first semes ter, probably before the Christmas vacation, Y ......

Huskers Improved. There wasn't any comparison between the Cornhuskers Saturday and those of a week ago. If Okla homa had counted on having an easy time of it with the listlesn Huskers who couldn't get more than a scoreless tie with Kansas State, she was sadly mistaken; for the team that knocked her out of first place in the conference Sat urday was a fighting, determined machine, tense and on edge, "rar- in' to go." Undoubtedly one of the major factors in the Husker renaissance was the return of Henry Bauer to his regular quarterback duties. Chief made it certain Saturday that he's one of those persons dis tinguished as "sparkplugs." No sooner had he raced across mo field from the sidelines, whore r n injured ankle had confined him : r the last two weeks, than the Hut ;-. . started rolling again, f I raced toward Oklahoma's goal i if pursued by a forest fire.

But the attack ran out or fuel, for the Sooners were obvious ly lying in ambush for Lloyd Cardwell, and Jerry LaNoue, ai tho he streaked goalward twice on end sweeps, couldn't keep it up. Bauer Shoots Pass. And so, with seven minutes of the game elapsed, Bauer replaced Johnnie Howell, evidently with or ders to go out and get a touch down quick. The Husker pass factory did just that. On his first play, standing on the okianoma 35-yard line, he lodged a long spiral in Wildhorse Cardwell's arms that lacked just two yarns or. crossing the goal. Big Sara buck ed the line twice, and Cardy, whose reputation for scoring touchdowns suffered something of a setback at Manhattan, tore around right end for the first Husker marker. But Cardy didn't base his claim for glory on a single little two- yard run. Breeden kicked oft again, and the sewara iran Diaz er, snagging a lateral from Bauer on a cross buck, raced from his own 10-yard stripe to Oklahoma's 8 eiehty-two yards in an. aiioo his tremendous speed simply car ried him away from all would-ba tacklers, a large Item in his suc cess was due to some snappy blocking by his mates.

Bones Eons Old Now Are Useful In a 'Bonaphone' Latest features to come out of the "bone pile" at the University museum is a "bonaphone," built by Henry Reider, of the museum staff from material probably a million years old. Altho in its embryo stas-e. Reider has perfected an in strument modeled after the marim- baphone, with rib bones from sev eral prehistoric rhinoceroses very carefully chosen and mounted on felt pads. When the musical creation is complete, Reider will be able to run the scale for several octaves. Even sharps and flats, the black keys on the piano, will be added. Before the proper pitched ribs were found, it was necessary to test the fossilized remains of numerous rhinoceroses. While certain bones are pitched high and others low, the deeper tones come from the longer pieces and the soprano notes from the shorter. The instrument was per fected sufficiently, however, for Reider to present a short program before a visiting group at the mu seum. The public will probably have the opportunity of aeeing and hearing the mellow sounding "bon aphone" for officials are talkin? of displaying it in one of the down town musis stores aftr its completion. t ft , .
