The now rules will receive their ilrst real test on the Athletic Field today In the game with Hastings Col lege. Qreat Interest has been exhib ited In the game for the past few days and It Is expected that a large crowd. will be In attendance. On account of the short period of preparation, Coach Foster has given the signals to but a limited number of men and in conse quence "only a few substitutes will bo given the opportunity to play; While today's game will be little more than a practice game, there 1b promised enough excitement to sat isfy the most exacting spectator. Play is almost certain to bo characterized by much fumbling and there is no tell ing what Hastings may or may .not be able to do on a fluke. A clean score card on either side can hardly ,be expected. Nebraska begins Its season this year with a green team and a late start as compared with previous years, but the men have shown excellent spirit and Bhould -jjive a good account of themselves. A large scbro can not bo expected, -however, as the men have not worked together enough to de velop that compact machtne-lfito play necessary to run up a big score In a short game. The rule requiring a team to gain ten yards in three downs is also expected to hold the score down considerably. Hastings is an entirely unknown quantity, nothing having been heard from them up to date. Inquiries have met with a persistent silence and it is not an impossibility that a surprise is in store.

Those who are watching and waiting for the first social event of the year may satisfy their deslreB on Friday, October 12, when the Pershing Rifles give their Informal Hop at Fraternity Hall. Up to one year ago the hop had boen formal and could not be attend ed by all who would have enjoyed It, on account of the necessary financial outlay. The success of last year's hop decided the company to make it informal again. Being the first one of the season, Chairman Yoder and Master of Ceremonies Joslln are very anxious to make It a social as well as a financial success.

Mr. C. W. Wallace, Assistant Profes sor of English Language and Litera ture In this University, when inter viewed by a member of tho staff of Tho Nobrjtskan yestorday, gave an account of tho research work rocontly undertaken by him among tho archlvos In tho Public Record Ofllco in London. Mr. Wallaco has only recently re turned from a two yoars stay abroad and whllo In England ho created qulto a stir among students of tho lifo and times of Shakespeare by unearthing documontB which had lain untouchod since they wore filed. Those docu ments related not simply to Shako spoaro, but to tho drama of that time, and are of largo importance from an historical standpoint. Tho aim of-tho work that Mr. Wal laco was engaged In has been tho un raveling of tho mystery that has al ways surrounded tho group of .Eliza bethan players known as "The Chil dren of tho Revols." It has been gen erally known that such a company, composed entirely of boys from nino to thirteen yoars of age, gained great prominence in tho latter part of tho reign of Queen Elizabeth, but what sort of an Influence they wielded on the dramaqf tho day or what took -place in tho hlBtory of tho group from its inception to Its final suppression, has hitherto romalnoQva profound se cret, v Tho explanation of this peculiar or- ganizatlon of players has at lasNbeon found, at least in somo measure, by Professor Wallaco, and within tho next year or two tho latter intends to publish tho complete result of- his in vestlgatlons, citing at tho same time the documents upon which his argu ment is based. Without anticipating in too great measure tho complete work on tho subject, the following points in regard to the "Children of tho Rovels" may be of Interest to Nebraskfln readers: In 1597, during tho reign of Queen Elizabeth, there was established at tho' Blackfrlars Theater In London a com pany, of boy players under tho name of "The Children of the Royal Chapel.". Thoy attained such a high degree of excellence in their performances that their house became the only theater of fashion in London and even Queen Elizabeth is known to have attended their productions. All tho best play writers of Shakespeardta time,- with the single exception of Shakespearo himself, wrote plays for their produc tion, and one of tho boys, who died at the age of thirteen, had attained such prominence in acting old men's parts that Ben Johnson, 'next to Shake speare probably the greatest English, dramatist, wrote one of his master pieces as an epitaph. . ; On the accession of James I, how ever, all, children actors in the king-, dom, with the single exception of this, one group, were suppressed and the (Continued on Page 3.) - -- j. v- .y.i.A.JMJ .. 4V ,J. t. .i -
