NebraskamStory Possibly Responsible
for Elimlnatloirof Campus Cactus.
An article appearing in yesterday's
edition of tho ipapor advised that the
group of cactuses surrounding the
fountain bo removed, as a menaco 'to
the'nibral tone of the school asIotog
as the cactus, tango, et cetra, "were
tabooed. Realizing the seriousness 'df
the situation, the officials got T)usy
almost immediately, and lo the foun

tions as the peaks of the Rockies. Ndw
that there Is no longer a livlhg lllustra

Today and tomorrow will to a large
extent settle the number of veteran
players who will aid Stiehm beat Min
nesota this fall. Reports are that sev
eral men who as yet are reported not
coming will report for duty on Ne

absolutely nothing is certain as to the
quality of the gridiron demonstrations
which will entertain Nebraska support
ers this year. The schools scheduled
to meet Nebraska this year are in as
precarious shape, however, so very
good hopes are properly held for over
whelming victory.
Tickets still go rapidly for both the
season's admission and tho Minnesota
game.
