DAILY NEBRASKAN
Student Union Announces
Table Tennis Pairings
Pairings for the Student Union's
annu:il fall ping pong tournaivcit
were amioutuvi hist night by the
competitive Raines committee of
the Union Hoard of Managers.
I'ur divisions hive been decided
ttuis fnr, induing the Men's Ail
vaiiced Singles, Men's Advanced
Doubles, Men's Duller Singles
nnd Men's Duffers Doubles. The
Sooner Team
Closes Season
Against W & M
NORMAN, Old., Dee. 3.-William
and Mary college, a powerful
fool hall team spawned in the hills
of old Virginia, will charge with
the frenzy and dash of a Confed
erates cavalry squadron when it
rides against Oklahoma's Sooners
in Oklahoma's semi-centennial
game and fo Jnll finale for 1912
at Owen field here Saturday.
Coach Carl "Dutch" Voyles'
Southerners scent a bowl hid if
they can conquer far-off Okla
homa. Moreover, William and
Mary will deserve it.
The Virginia boys haven't been
beaten yet this season by a college
team, having licked Navy 3-0 and
seven other collegiate opponents.
Voyles' Virginians were tied by
Harvard early in the season, 7-7,
but they wiped that out two weeks
later by annihilating Dartmouth,
the team that had just defeated
Harvard. William and Mary's mar
gin over the Green at Hanover
was 35 to 14
Always tough at Norman, as
their 6-6 tie with mighty Missouri
two weeks ago proved. Coach
Dewey "Snorter" Luster's Soon
ers, featuring one of America's
finest football lines and a superb
blocking back and line-backer in
Bill Campbell, will try to close
their 1912 season with an upset
triumph.
Service Losses.
Hit harder by losses to the
armed forces than perhaps 95 per
cent of the other college clubs in
America, the dogged Oklahomans
have lost four games this year,
but three of them were bv bare
one touchdown margins, to Texas
0-7, to Nebraska 0-7 and to Tem
ple 7-14 as the Sopncrs' near all
graduate coaching staff spectacu
larly reorganized their offense and
defense after the Tulsi defeat in
the second game of the war-year
campaign.
Lack of speed to cover enemy
forward passe in the secondary
lias been the Sooners' undoing all
year. The staunch Oklahoma for
wards have had no trouble throt
tling every foe running offensive
they have encountered, only to
look hack with consternation over
their shoulders to see long enemy
aerials cleverly pegged to speedy
enemy receivers oul-run the tardy
Sooner pass defense.
Oklahoma's fighting line stopped
Tulsa's rushing offensive with 76
ret yards.

When in
BY SHIRLEY CROSBY.
Perrye's my roommate and I
said to her last night, "Pcrrye,
let's dodge study table and go over
to the Union to the social dancing
class." She said, "All right, I
only have six classes tomorrow,
let's tour over.
We grabbed our coats and bar
relled out. I thought I could hear
the juke box and one, two, three,
slide a half block away, so we ran
so we wouldn't be too late. When
we got there, sure enough, they
were one, two, three, sliding all
over the place. Being a little
winded, Perrye said, "Why don't
we wall-flower it for awhile and
see how they're doin'?" So we
sat awhile.
An Eight, Split.
Pretty soon Perrye said, "Look."
I followed her finger and saw a
gal galloping across the floor with
the biggest following I ever saw.
1 mean she had a protruding pos
terior. As Perrye aptly put it,
"She looks like an eight split
lengthwhise." All the girls weren't
like that tho. There were sonu
pretty good looking gals there, but
we never did figure out why .he
little short ones danced with the
Gulliverish guys and the Amazong
picked on the little guvs.
Iiy then we had caught our
breath so we decided to dance,
and we hadn't anymore than got
on the floor than they started to
play a conga. I was with a nice
big goon with nice big feet, but mv
pop always said, 'Be a good sport,"
so I gave him a nice, big, weak
smile and told him to hitch on. We
did pretty well for a while, and
then I started feeling myself
shooting forward a foot or so after
each "kick."
Sitting.
After I told Elmer (the nice big
goon I to put less enthusiasm in
the kick, we did o.k. About tho
middle of the number 1 happened
to glance around and 1 saw Per
rye sitting on the floor with some
more gills an I hoys. 1 couldn't
see how she could be so tired again
so soon and anyway, who was that
guy sitting on her head ?
Afterwards she told me that the
guy in front of her had cuffs on
his pants and she'd caught her
heel in one of them and it had
thrown them both, but her first.
She's still wondering where he got
pants with cuffs on them, even if
I keep telling her he probably
wasn't a spy.
Foot-Throwing.
After the conga I danced again
with Elmer. His waltzing was
stinky instead of sliding like the
teacher said, he'd pick up his feet
and throw them at me. I got
pretty tired trying to figure out
I where he was going to aim his
feet next bo I said, 'Elmer I feel a
mm
ill! J

little faint, will you excuse me?"
And he said, "Yeah, you're look
ing kind of peaked," and walked
off and left me there. I collected
Perrye and we decided to go home.
She says everyone is doing a lot
better than they did last week.
Anyway, we're going again next
week because we got a lot of prac
tice for the Military Ball and Mor
tar Board party.
