whelming victory of the home team is
not to be wondered at Considering the
1 comparative unimportnnce of the game,
a large crowd was in attendance, and
the organized bands of rooters aided
materially in Btirring up a little ex-
itement.
Donne's line up was unusually light,
and it is surprising that they held up
as long as they did. Fuhrer. left tackle

Amateur vs. Professional.
The following is a clipping, descrip
tive of the international college game
of football. It was taken from one of
the Sunday papeis
For the information of the beginner
I will say that a foot ha I is the shape
of an ostrich's egg The game was in
vented in France and is an exaggera
tion of la savate It is not lair to swing
or jab When in a scrimmage it Is per
missible to kick an opponent in the sto
mach or stand on his face A man who
slaps is put out of the game in dis
grace, and Is roasted by all the news
papers. Players are of two kinds -the ama
teur and professional The amateur
player is one who gets transpoi tation
from his home to the training camp,
his room rent free, his board at rates
reduced to nothing, pays no tuition and
gets a job sweeping out the gymnasium
at $20 per week A professional is one
who won a silvei dollar In a foot lace
at a Fourth of July picnic when lie was
a small boy.
A tiainer is a man who does most
of the woi k and gets nothing of the
credit
The coach is the man who lays It on
to the trainer if the team is beaten and
takes all the credit for victories
The rooter is the man who says "we"
In speaking of the team. It is his duty
to properly celebrate all victories and
drown the remorse of all defeats. A
rooter must have capacity. An alum
nus is a man who makes speeches about
giving "the team our hearty support
for the glory of old U of ," and then
calls up his newspaper friend to ask if
there is a "stray ducat in sight for to
day's game." Mackenthal Tackleback

Claud Egerton, president

HELENES GO VISITING
fraternity Men Spend Evening
Together Plans Laid for
Organization of Greek
Letter f raters.
About one hundred membeis of the
different fraternities Indulged in some
original pleasure on Saturday evening.
All the way from the university to G
street the town people were greeted
with the sound of tooting horns, whist
ling and singing. It was misunder
stood by a good many to be In celebra
tion of the football victory in the af
ternoon, but thlB was not the Idea,
although possibly In the minds of the
celebrators at first.
The whole affair was Impromptu,
and not at all planed. A crowd of
young men started from tho Delta Up-
sllon house with the Idea of calling
on a neighboring fraternity. They then
gathered together and called on an
other The latter joined In. and
a round was made of all the fraternity
houses in town The c rowd was headed
by an improvised band picked up at
the houses.
At each stopping place the varsity
yells we if glved and also the different
fraternity yells by the different crowds.
Some little time was taken up at each
house with singing and visiting and
then the whole crowd adjourned to an
other The result was great hilarity
and lots of enthusiasm in the new idea.
The time was spent in getting better
acquainted At one place there were
but two men at home, and they were
called clown to find the visitois in ikjs-
sesslon of the downstairs At another
place a dancing party was in progress.
At the last place visited, the Kappa
Sigma house, n movement was put on
foot looking to the permanent organi
zation of the Greek letter fraternities
for the pin pose solely of Increasing a
friendly spirit among them, and to In
crease college enthusiasm and support
of collegiate affairs in the student
body A committee composed of Wil
liam Wallace, Fred Sweeley and Hal
Sowles was appointed to take the pre
liminary steps and call a meeting in
the near future of delegates from each
one of the fraternities.
Palladlan Reception.
The Palladians held a reception to
both old and new students in their par
lors on Friday evening. A large num
ber were present and enjoyed an even
ing entertainment. The hall was tastily
decorated to suit the occasion and
attention was paid to items of histori
cal interest which would interest new
comers to the university as well as
the older members. A general social
time was in order throughout the even
ing and light refreshments were served.
The affair was planned in anticipation
or the year which is Just beginning and
was to act as a pleasant opening for
the duties and pleasures of the year.
Sugar factory Men.
The department of chemistry has
still on file requests for three mi gar
Wubo chemists, two from Nebraska
factories and one from a Michigan fac
tory. Unfortunately there are no men
available here for these positions All
the members of last year's class, as
well as of former classes, who cared
for positions In this line readily found
satisfactory employment this fall.
Students who have never been told
what they are "cut out for" or who
ore undecided as to what they are
"going to do" or "going to be." will
do well to consider, among other
things, the business of sugar manufac
turingbeet or cane
This Industry In this country Is be
ing puBhed and developed at a remark
ably rapid rate, at the present time.
in spite of the unsettled status of su
gar tariff legislation. There are al
ready in operation In the United 8tates
forty beet sugar factories and eight or
nine more will probably be built and
ready for next season's crop. Besides
these there are a large number of
cano sugar factories In the south and
glucoBe manufactories In the middle
west There are plenty of good open
ings for good men chemists and me
chanics, and alert business men. n
Since the Nebraska sugar school was
abolished, owing to lack of funds to
maintain It. university students have
taken little or no Interest In this line
of work. No one, who Is Inclined
toward the business, should feel that
there is no opportunity here for study
ing It. because there are a number of
couises still offered by the departments
of chemiBtry, mechanical engineering
and physics that appertain directly.
Those who wish to prepare them
selves for work In the next campaign
should leglster for the pioper courses
this semester.
friday's Convocation.
The convocation hour Friday was
variously taken up It was announced
that It would be a football mass meet
ing and a large crowd wbb out. After
the song, Mr Turner, who Is especially
Interested in the Bible study depart
ment of the Y M C.A.. was introduced
by Chancellor Andrews. He took up a
few minutes In n statement of the
courses offered and urged every young
man who was Interested in improving
his life to take up some prescribed
course of Bible study. He urged state
ments made by young men who had
taken the couises previously and those
of well known men. as evidence of the
value of the courses, among them the
Chancellor.
Following this, Mr. Wyer of the
athletic hoard took the platform and
gave some information about the rates
offered by railroads to football games.
He also stated some important facts
good for new students to know. He led
off in spme yelling and stated Messrs.
Shldler and Teach would lead tho root
ing for the season.
A all was then made for Coach
Booth, who stood up. The crowd then
made him stand up longer. Assistant
Palmer was then called for and bash
fully arose for a short moment. West
over was called on, but the three men
led the crowd gut of the chapel.
