IJEEDS BIG BOOST RIGHT NOW TWELVE THOU8AND DOLLAR8 MU8T BE RAI8ED TODAY. THE CAMPAIGN (LOSES THIS EVENING Big Effort for $100,000 to Elect Splen- did New Structure Comes to t, an End With Reports -"' Today. 0ccici3c&!i&c&&c& rJktf&c&l3 Tho Y. M. C. A. compilttemen aro making a desperate effort to secure the balance of the $100,000 fund to day so that the entire amount can be announced at tho closing mooting to night. To afford every opportunity to the business men who volunteered to put the1 movement through It was do- cidod to 'abandon tho usual dally gath ering atioon today and have tho final reports this evening at the headquar ters, 189 South 11th street.' Tho .do ing away with the, mid-day conference means that an emergency Is at hand and tho Btudonts of tho university are urged to do what they can to make the success of this commendable en terprise sure. After tho reports were submitted yesterday It was found that the $100, Q00 fund still lacked nearly $13,000, 'the exact amount being $12,887. This 1b a largo sum to bo obtained In one day. It can bo done only by a super human offort on tho part of the mem bers of the committees who have la bored so-faithfully and so energetic ally for tho last ten days. Members bT"tho Taculty and tf the student body have assisted In these Y. M. C. A. "short term" campaigns In other cities both by endeavor and by sub scribing. Tho Bamo ought to bo dono here. Tho part taken by tho Y. M. 0. A. In the history of Lincoln during the past nine years has not boon sur passed ,ln any othor city of the Unitod States. General Secretary C. M. RJayno has come In touch with many students of tho university through both tho city and tho collegiate asso ciations and tho effort she.haB made for years to surround tho young men away from homo with healthful and wholesome surroundings ought to bo supported by those who are now bene fited by a better and cleaner Lincoln.

I beg tho use of your columns to place some thing before the University to revive Interest In a "Nebraska Song." Tho idea was taken up laBt year by tho "Innocents," but for Borne reason It was dropped.' I believe that Nebraska ought to havo a song of her own, with words of her own and music of her own. Wo ought to have Bomothing wo could sing for NebraBkans wherever Nebraskans may be, and not feel wo are singing the song of some other college, or words put to some popular air. It's fho traditions that bind a man to his alma mater. An old Princeton "grad" can go baok and stand with uncovored head, with tears in his eyes, while ho singa the, "Orange and tho Black," but graduates of tho U. of N. can never feel those emotions when they sing Nebraska words to tho tune of tho "Orango and tho Black." Let'B have a Nebraska, song for Nebraskans. And In order to start Interest in this direction, I submit tho following words, to which I Have a tuno, but knowing nothing of piano composition, am unable to write it down: THE 8CARLET AND CREAM. i In a country where meadow-land kisses tho sky,' Where corn Is a bounty so rare, A germ of great learning once hovering above, Fell down and now vegetables there, From far and from near . Comes the cream of tho land, A part of tho morning's bright beam. It plucks from the sunset a great scarlet band, To make up tho scarlet and cream'. Nebraska! Chorus.. Nebraska! Toast to tho health of Nebraska. Pride of her sons and tho queon of the weBt, Varsity 1 Varsity! or all tho beBt. Nebraska! Nebraska! Whorovor wo are, wo'ro for No-bras-ka, boys. Then onward, Nebraska, the Scarlet and Cream, Our shouts ring out loud in tho air. Wo know, by that spirit, the victory Is Boaled, And homeward tho glory we'll boar. When hearts throb with pain, When the struggle seems vain, Apd tears of defiance do gleam. With spirit undaunted we'll stand by the school, And yell fo rtbo Scarlot and Creanf. Chorus. And thus bo It ever, the spirit that wins, Wherever NobraskanB may bo. Together we'll stand by tho old U. of N., And hope greater glorieB to see. Tho years passing by May bring to her sons, Whatever most fitting they deem, But always our thoughts to Nebraska will turn, Our songs will bo Scarlot and Cream. Chorus. Then hero's to Nebraska, the Scarlet and Cream, Long life to tho Cornhusker band. A toast to a future of wonderful growth, A toaBt:to.tho flower of the land. In long after years, Our eyes fllle'd-Mrtth tears, We'll comp toMlvo o'er the old, dream. Whl gather together, In rain pr in shine, To cheer on the Scarlet and Cream.

Perry, captain of tho 1909-1910 basketball team which will represent Nebraska in tho Missouri Valley this winter, is back in school. Perry b In much better health than he was last spring, -when there was soma doubt as to wlfether he would bo able to re enter tho game this wlntqr. He bo lieyeB that he will not only be able to play the game, but that he s in,, bet ter condition for it than ever before. Tle basketball meri will not com mence practice until early jNpvoniber, A squad will be formed then which vflll work 'together until tho end of the football season with tho Haskell game on Thanksgiving From that ,tlme on the men vrlll got to workiu pafnegt and vtbe. schedule r will , begin immediately after Christmas. Many students have been consider ably aroused since registration regard ing tho now laboratories in the engi neering building and what Is to be dono regarding fees paid in If the lab oratories canno? be used. Owing to a delay In the shipment of the fur nishings for the new engineering building, the work haB dragged for the past fov"ceoks and tho labora tories are not yet in shape for use. This mejpB that the engineering stu dents 63ll bo unablo to get into tho laboratory work for" a few weeks. In case there is any serious delay in starting the work provision will be made for tho students who have paid fees for work In these laboratories. Should such a delay occur, Professor Richards states that lbaoratory, fees will be rebated for tho second semes ter' to cover the loss in the .'first. fuiB ruuiuu, oi couruo, wouia oniy ap ply to those who' have registered, for the first semestor'8 laboratory work. Fn this mahner it is believed that anjr jnjuatlce vfyich .niay( bo.'fjlt!,;by thp students the "first semester may be, removed., r, Not Ready Yet. . The new; laboratories wil probably not be ready for '-. occupation,, for $'t least .twoUweoka, ,'and- it, may take ,sev eral weeks more to get things into shape. The delays which those in charge of tho work havo experienced havo been unavoidable. Most of tho furnishings such as pulleys, shafting, motors, and tho like, were promisod for delivery September first and have not yet arrived. Tho department has had everything In readiness for some timp for tho reception of this ap paratus. Even after some of the shipments whlcli were made earlier in the sum mer arrived, there was a delay of weeks In getting It unloaded and de livered, owing to delays on tho part of the transfer companies. Some of the machinery was lost In shipment, and is only now being traced to its destination. Motors which were or Ijered August 1 and were to havo been delivered In five weeks have not yet been shipped. However, most of this material will comq in the next few weeks and when once installed Ne braska will probably ,jbave oqe of the finest mechanical engineering labora tories and building in this country. No Steam Lab. No attempt will be made to oper ate the steam laboratories this se mester. Students who were to have taken that work will be allowed ,tQ substitute somothlng else, All of this machinery and apparatus will be Bhipper, however, in six or eight weeks and every effort will be made to get things into shape for work .the sec; ond semester. As it is, in all of the laboratories especial pains will .be taken 'to see that the laboratories ,for tho use of. jTresbmen .,and sophqmor.es Will be ready, as soon, as possible, as it lis with these iwp classes that the most, difficulty n arranging the work will be met with. L E. F. Guidlngor; 1909, spent part' of the past .summer at Ames, Nebr., where ho was employed by 4he sugar beet manufacturers Inrdlsmantllng'the 0,500,000 Leavltt plant i While Dos Moines was busy boating Lincoln, and Omaha was taking Ducky , Holmes' rowdy bunch down the lino In a double-header, thereby giving Dcb MoIiicb tho pennant in tho West ern loaguo baseball race, Coach- Colo again put his pupils thru some Btronu ous work atthestato farm Jast ovon Ing. Thp work was much liardor and florcor than tho night boforo, tho, sjcrimmago lasting for about twenty minutes. Four squads woro again on tho field; ti(r first and second composed ontiro- : 1 of Varsity mon, tho third mixed, and tho fourth all froshloB., Tho first cloven and tho. froshlos Ijned up, with the Varsity men carry ing tho ball, Open plays consisting of ljng end runs and forward passes wore used almost exclusively, Captain "Buck" Boltzor showed that ho has hot lost any of his cunning In passing the ball. His passes aro fast and ac curate and ought to bo a strong factor in winning games for tho Nebraska eleven this year, Tho ond and backs' showed good speed in getting down the field to recolvo tho passes, Lof-' gren andChanner jnaklng long galnss 'on'thesbplays, whilo Pranck got away , for soveral long quarter back playB. Inexperienced Line, xno greatest weakness was again shown by tho inexperienced lino. Spyr-t eral times tho light freshman tackles , broke thru and blocked tho plays. As-, sistant Coach Harvoy Is working hard with tho lino men, as ho feels that much will depend on how wil no can develop tho now men before tho hard games come off. Every night sees about a score of two hundred pounders lined up against each other learning the art of charging, blocking and , breaking up plays, under the tuition of tho assistant coach. After the Varsity men had put the FreBhies out of commission, tho ! scrubs were given the ball and tjio fensivo Work they showed up well, tho Varsity put on Iho defensive. In do-,' scrubs being unablo ib gain consist-;, ontly. Several shifts weso mado during the1 scrimmage last evening and several ' ' , new men given a chance. t Fprd,, who played tackle on last year's eleven, was used at guard.
