The powerful Golden Gophers
of Minnesota ran rough-shod over
a small but spirited Cornhusker
eleven Saturday before a crowd
of 34,000 spectators at Memorial
stadium, Minneapolis, who had
come expecting to see just that.
This is the second invasion from
the Big Six that the Gophers have
smothered on their way to what
may turn out to be a mythical
national championship. Last week
the Norsemen whipped the cham
pion Missouri Tigers 26 to 13.

177V Theater Holds
First Play Tryouts
Tryouts for the first University
Theater play of the season will
be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock
In room 201 of the Temple, ac
cording to Berne Enslin, new the
ater director.
The play will be "Letters to
Lucerne" by Fritz Rotter and Al
len Vincent. All students who
have copies of this play are asked
to bring them to tryouts because
the theater's copies have not ar
rived yet.
Song Writer
Fritz Rotter originally can.e
from Vienna, Austria, where he
established a career as a song
writer. In 1936 he came to Amer
ica to write plays and while in
S4-
team didn't have a chance against
the mighty Gophers. Taking the
ball on the kickoff, the. Swedes
smashed their way from their own
39 yard line to "pay dirt" in just
about as much time as it takes
to tell it. "Red" Williams, Avery
and Garnaas then settled down to
the steady job of cracking the
Nebraska forward wall at will.
These husky Minnesota backs
pounded away at the tackles and
ends for yard upon yard, and at
the end of the first quarter the
score stood 13 to 0 in favor of
Minnesota.

Tickets
For Sale
Student activity tickets are on
sale in the office of John Selleck
in the coliseum and may be pur
chased by students desiring
them for $5.50 plus the presen
tation of the student's identifi
cation card.
This year there will be no re

for this reason an organized

a section for its membership as
has been done in years past.
Each student will have to obtain
his own ticket and sit wherever
there is a vacant seat upon ar
riving at the games.

dents and soldiers are invited.
Mass beginning next Sunday
will be in Temple Studio theater,
room 201, with Rev. G. Schuster,
cnapiain.
Hollywood he conceived his Idea
for "Letters to Lucerne." As Mr,
Rotter had not mastered th v.nir
liah language very well, he teamed
up with Allen Vincent who, at the
time, was considered the "best
dialogue writer in Hollywood" by
many proaucers.
The story takes place in a girls
school near Lucerne. Switzerland
The plot revolves about the letters
from different countries, received
py tne girls who are of varied
nationalities. '

Shortly after the beginning of
the second quarter Avery hit the
line again for the third Minnesota
touchdown, going over from the
13 yard line. Garnaas added the
extra point from placement, and
the score stood 20 to 0. From
here on out, it was catch as catch
can, with both the first, second
and third strings of Minnesota
piling up yards and touchdowns
against a hapless Nebraska eleven
almost at will. Only the fine
kicking of Clark Beaver, Ne
braska back, slowed up the scor-

Secretory ship
Introducing Barbara E. Arnold,
new secretary of the YWCA.
You'll find her sitting behind the
desk over in the Ellen Smith YW
office with a friendly smile and
a fascinating and wholly natural
clipped eastern accent. She's the
one with light brown short curly
hair and sparkling eyes, who says
'Tell everyone to come in and see
me l a line to see mem.
Arriving in Lincoln at approxi
mately 2:30 a. m. her first impres
sion of this locale was a rather
damp one. She awoke this morn
ing to the strains of Alouetta and
the air corps song by the soldiers.
This was something new to her
Although there are service men
stationed at DU the singing is an

cerned. Nine o'clock found her

her associates.
To Tour Campus.
Miss Arnold couldn't say much
about a first impression of univer
sity since she hasn't as yet seen it
but she intends to make a tour of
inspection which will include the
new library about which she has
heard lots. The thing which has
made the biggest impression tn her
to date is the Union building
which is one of the best she has
seen.
Last year Miss Arnold was co-
secretary of the Student Christian
Movement, a combined YW-M, at
Denver university, where she
worked while getting her masters
degree in Social Group Work. In
1940 she received her bachelor's
degree from Vassar college, New
York but' at present she claims
New Hampshire as her home state
thouffh she has lived in several
eastern states.
- No New Plans Yet.
She has as yet no plans for the
YW formulated but those already
worked out will be continued. Miss
Arnold hopes that the YW can
continue to be a guiding influence
on the campus and that even more
girls will become interested in it
