Grid Spirit
The Biggest Homecoming Rally
in History proved the fitness of
its title Friday as a huge student
crowd watched an entire program
of highlights to pep school spirit
to a fever pitch.
The rally got under way at 7
p. m. when the yell leaders, Corn
Cobs and Tassels assembled the
mob of students before the Union.
The effigy of the KU Jayhawker
they were scheduled to drag to
the Coliseum had been torn down
Vednesday evening, but they
didn't let that dampen theii
ardor.
Lead Rallies.
The pep squad and the univer
sity band led the ralliers down R
street to 16th. north to Vine, and
west to the athletic practice field
west of the Coliseum. The crowd
gathered on the slope to the south
and watched tne spectacle unroll
before their eyes.
Each of the cheer leaders car
Tied around a sparkler to help
light up the field, which toojc on
the appearance of a stage to the
spectators. Every once in a while
rockets were shot off from be
hind the band, which was massed
in regular formation behind the
iootball team.
Masterson Introduces Team.
Yell King Martin Pesek intro
duced Coach Bernie Masterson.
who proceeded to call the names
of the entire squad. After a big
cheer, the team left the field and
took out for Ashland, where they
spent the night. Before leaving,
Game Capt. Tom Novak said a
few wods and tossed a football
with the signatures of the squad
on it to the throng. Late reports
indicated that ATO Bob Berk
shire, journalism sophomore and
hurdle star, walked off with the
trophy.
Harriet Quinn, Tassels prexy,
then introduced the five finalists
for the 1947-48 Pep Queen.
An interesting feature was the
lights on the hats of each of the
band members. They showed up
especially well when the band
went into some of its more intri
cate designs.
At the end of the rally, a short
memorial service was held for Ne
braska men who have fallen in
the last two wars. A trumpeter
from the band sounded taps, and
then the band played "The Star
Spangled Banner."
Dick Thompson
N Club President
Richard "Dick" Thompson,
football lctterman, was elected as
president of the N club Wednes
day evening. He succeeds Fred
Lorenz as president.
Alex Cochrane was elected vice
president, and Wes Maser named
secretary. Tom Novak and "Carl
Samuelson are the new sergeants-at-arms,
with Jack Pesek as an
alternate.
Maser earned his letter as a
baseball player while Cochrane,
Novak, Samuelson and Pesek are
football lettermen.

Seem9 Double
By
' Don and Al Amsden
One thing develops out of
the smoke and confusion of the
"Schuschnigg Affair." Hetr
Schuschnigg, fascist or not, ac
complished something that no
one else has been able to do
at Nebraska. He appealed to
the interest of the student body
sufficiently to get several thou
sand of them to take the ti-ou-ble
to go to a convocation.
' After an all-university con
vocation which drew a pititful
attendance of fifty, the Schusch
nigg drawing-power is all the
more remarkable. To have
student interest force the con
vocation to be switched to the
coliseum is practically unpre
cedented! We don't believe that Dr.
Schuschnisg's speech was ac
tually that much more impor
tant than those of previous eon
vocations. But the selection of
such a controversial figure was
an inspiration in the first place.
And the interest of the history
department in putting Sohusch
nigg's background before the
student body wa sequally com
endable. All in all, the incident was a
refrshing reversal of the uni
versity's general inclination to
shy away from any and all con
troversial questions. This for
mer conservatism may have
anticipated and prevented out
side criticism. But such a head-in-the-sand
attitude can only
foster a sterile atmosphere in
student minds.
No one, we suspect, joined
the forces of Fascism, Com
munism or any other "ism" af
er listening to Dr. Schuschnigg's
talk. So perhaps the only real
Fascist plot was forcing us to
think of something more vital
than coke dates. If so, we were
taken in, and we liked it!

NOTICE TO VETERANS.
Representatives from the Ne

Veterans Administration Mill
be on duty in the front (north)

the purpose of assisting any
veteran who has not received
his subsistence check by that
date. eVteran reporting to the
Library should have their C
numbers in hand.'
An official f the eVterans
Administration has stated that
subsistence checks should not
be considered overdue until
after the 5th of each month,
because, it requires, several
days to mail checks to the
thonsands of veterans on the
subsistence rolls of several
inidHirst states. This same of
ficial has also said. "The Vet
erans Administration is doing
everything possible to guar
antee that veterans in college
get their subsistence checks."
