Editorial Remarks
About l.rii) Irion turned out to watch
piiuthi' and do koiih yd! iinutlco on
their own hido Inft overling, but
the recently appointed root-loaders
hilled to kIiow up. .lust one more
piactlie before the (Irinnell game,
and no steps taken toward organ
izing Kquads looks bad for Ne
brasUta Hpirit. The men who want to
help the encoring along come out
every night, and leaders have been
appointed, so why can't we begin the
i "a.son right and do all we ian to help
the best team Nebraska ever turned
out win eeiy game on the hardest
Kchedule ever played by a western
school. Remember, the game Saturday
is going to be far different from the
one a week ago, for Clrinnel! is coming
down with the best team they have
had tor yeais, a team primed for this
game, for they realize at the Iowa
fchool that to beat Nebraska will be
the biggest feather they can win at
''foot bull, and they am putting forth
every effort to put a Kink in the Coin
htiRkers' tall. It Is the duty of eery
loyal student in the university to biing
coinage and a megaphone along with
him next Saturday, for in this game
the team will often need some root
ing to gain a llrst down.
