The numberMs limited and will likely fall far short of supplying the demand. Torches may be secured to day at any time until 8:30 p. m., when the parade will commence, or until the supply is exhausted. If the supply of lamps runs out be fore the demand is satisfied students who cannot secure them are expected to take part anywny. The next thing to frantically brandishing a fiery can of kcroBcne is making a noise that can be heard out at Haveldck. All the torches in creation would make a poor .sendoff parade JX Jhex were not' ac companied by real university noise. But the combination of flaming torch and howling student will do the work, and will at least awaken the people of Lincoln to the fact that the fall term haB opened. ' Will Be a Big Event.

Freshman Gets Free Shines as a Re- . suit of the Olympics Because the freshmen "won the Olympics a certain sophomore, who will not allow his name to bo pub lished, has been compelled to stoop to tho humble task of shining a fresh man's shoes. Before the Olympics thiB sophomore "wagered with thiV freBh man after this wise: If tho sophomores won the freshman was to shine the shoes of the sophomoro four times, and if the freshmen won the sopho more was to polish tho shoes of the freshman three times. The sopho mire had refused to bet without odds. The freshman's third shine Is due to day. , i "OLD MAIDS" POOR vTEACHER8. Do Not Create Proper "Atmosphere" for Young Women. President Frederick W. Hamilton of Tufts "college has said that unmar ried women teachers should not teach college girls because their influence is harmful. "I do not believe that young girls who are Just passing into young womanhood are in the proper en vlronmen if they are continually brought into close personal touch with elderly unmarried women. Tho larger proportion of -women's , col leges aro in (the hands of women teachers, however, and the education al atmosphere of the place is feminine, the peculiar type .of femininity devel oped by highly cultured middle-aged unmarried women. Now, while' this type may be very fine individually, It is not the proper dno to create tho atmosphere for the girlB at tho forma tive period ortheir lives. In the lower grades- of the schools, too,- and in the preparatory schools their Influenco is counteracted by the influence of the home. All elements that tend to nar rower college girls should bo ellmV inated," PARADE TONIGHT FIVE MEN HAVE BEEN CHOSEN r CROSS-COUNTRY TEAM SELECTED FOR CONFERENCE MEET.

The first flvo men mentioned will compose tho cross-country team that will con test at MadiBon, November 19th. The try-out was one of the moBt suc cessful and interesting 'over held nl Nebraska. The fact that the start and the finish of tho race were staged on the athletic Held added much to tho Interest, and caused many of the loyal supporters nnd enthusiasts to go out on the field and watcii tho event. Fast Time. Tho official time of the race was J2&1&L Considering -.alL-the. ..cJrciiiiu. stances this is exceptionally good time. The weather wasn't what it might have been to pull off a fact race nnd the roads in places were pretty slow to run for4 time. Tho time, how ever, usunllyrequired at tho big mid dlowcst Intercollegiate ero'ss-country race lies between 28 and 28:ifo. Tho time of 28:54 1b considered good for a race held so early in tho season and under Bomewhnt adversa circum stances, . The Just lap of the race on tbe ath letic field was a good one. Three run ners, Anderson; Mellck and Bates; were running almost even, and even at the close of the event there was some doubt as to the order in which they finished. Anderson was given first by a small fraction and Bates and Mellck tied for second honors. Twelve Men Entered. Twelve men were entered in the event: Thto confident belief that there would be at leaBt fifteen was shattered at tho last moment by- fhe non-appearance of some of thd "doped" proBpectives. The order Tri which the contestants finished isas follows, excluding ' Kinsman. Atkins and Chaplin, who did not finish: L. R. Anderson, 28:54. V, Bates, 29:00. W, A. Mellck, 29:00". W. O.

Ho wns on ttic var slty team Inst yoar and lias been in training all this 'year. His failure to appear haB not yet been accounted for. Throughout tho year ho was "doped" as a sure team membert consequently there will only bo two. old men on the varsity. Theso men are Mellck and Andorsou. The newcomers, BatcB, Swanson and Hayes, however, showed great form in tho try-out and are ex pected to bo good representatives for Nebraska at Madison. Dr. Clnpp, who had clmrgo of tho ontlre. event, did not venture any prophecy at the cIobo of tho raco on tho team's success at Madison: He ex pressed much disappointment nt the (act that Lzlcnr did not comq out, and is likewlBo unfamiliar with tho circum stances which prevented him from so doing. Ho nlso mndo tho stntemept that the team was not quite as evenly balanced ns he would like to liavo had thorn. He affirms, however, that by the time of the Madison meet, he will hnvo them working as smoothly as npy Nebraska team that ever partlcl pated in this event. . For the first lap and a half of the race on tho athletic field, Anderson took ins lead and retained It through out the race. Bates and Captain Me lick soon Bhlfted to tho front rank positions and also held thorn 'through tho entire rntie". Kenedy, Hayes and Swanson were alternately fighting for third position for tho best hulf of the race. Very few shifts in tho order were made In tho Inst threo laps. Dr. Clapp ncted as ofllclal starter. Cherrington nnd Field were tho judgeB of tho finish and time keepers. READING BY MI88 HOWELL. Will-Give Dramatic Interpretation of 'Jeanne d'Arc." Miss H.

V "Get a megaphone," 1b tho lateBt ordor from tho football headquarters. Manager "Dog" Eager yesterday urged all loyal Nebraska students to go to Kansas well provided with 'mega phones. "A man with a megaphone is worth throe men without," is tho way the mnnngor put it. "Small mega phones nro bCst," he said, "and a little scarlet und cream decoration helps some.", "At one of the games in recent years, Nebraska entertained a bunch of viBlting rooters, every man of whom, was equipped with a megaphone, and tho rooting wns simply great. Each megnphono- had a ribbon shoulder strap of the school colors, and when. J not in . uso tho noise producer was ' slung from tho shoulder." Manager Eager said last night that ho was so impressed with the, appear ance of that rooting aggregation, when" marching four abreast as they, came up from the depot, that ho feared they would ,ou t root Nebraska. Nebraska had hard wofk to keep paco with the . twoNcoro of rooters with megaphones. The yells fairly rung as ffom.an army of rooters, when they got started. , "That is the sort of rooting wo want ' at Kansas," he said, "a megaphone is a necessary part, of the game," ... . .Yell Leaders Going.
