CAPTAIN MAX TOWLE TAKES PEP OUT OF MAGICIANS TRICKS Turns Chagrin at Being "Balled Out" Into Much Applauded "Comeback." Captain-elect Max Towle lias blos somed forth in the role of an actor not, however, w lthout experiencing a good deal ot criticism at the hands of one of his fellow Thespians. Whether or not he will desert football for good has not been determined. It all happened at the Lyric Wednes day evening. Max and his lady fair were occuping a box; a magician was occupying the stage. The man with the magic wand placed a mirror In side a hankerchief and then, advan cing to the box, dared Mrs. Max to remove the looking-glasB. Of course it had disappeared up his sleeve, and the young lady, after searching in vain turned very red. The magician, learning with the pleasure experienced in such a tri umph, returned to a position in front of the footlights and offered to try the experiment on any one else who had the nerve to submit to assuming the role of the goat.

MANY DATES' BEING CANCELLED Organizations Switch Back And Forth With Day's Quotations Who Will Move Next? Many phenomena that cannot be otherwise explained are at present blamed on the sudden popularity of the new dances. The continuous round of tango dances scheduled lately has precipitated a war between rival hotel managers. One hotel that has suc ceeded in obtaining moBt of the stu dent trade during the last few years simply jecause they had a monoply on '.lie business, advertised in last evening's paper that they had prac tically cut their prices in half. This was done only after the rival manage ment had built a new hall and had ap preciably lowered the prices for the students. It was rumored that those who held the dance hall and for so long attempt ed to Induce the other hotel people to raise their schedule to the same level of price and when the propo sition was flatly refused declared that they would open their ball-room free rather than submit to a reduction in rates. There is little doubt as to stu dents sentiment in the matter WILL DEBATE POPULAR QUESTION OF SUFFRAGE Interclass Teams Will Settle Question on Phi Beta Kappa Day Try outs Soon.

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE ON DAM Prof. Raber Speaks tonight on Missi- sippi Hyro-Electrlc Plant at Keokuk.

In the 80 minutes the CornhuskerB have played thiB year they have made 100 points. They ran up a total of 44 against the X-Uni. aggregation and 5G against Cotner.
