Entered at the postoffice at Lincoln, Nebraska, as second class
mail matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.
Will we beat Oregon? Maybe.
It is indeed strange and mysterious, if the $200 fund of the class
of 1916 has disappeared. It is a custom in the University for each
senior class to leave some gift to the school, after their graduation.
Two hundred dollars collected from members of a class for some
especial purpose, ought to be spent for that purpose.
About four hundred University women marched in the football
parade Tuesday evening an unprecedented event The women in
school are as enthusiastic and willing to support events in school as
the men. Half of Memorial hall was filled with women, at the rally,
the yells were given with as much spirit, and the team idolized per
haps a wee bit more by them than the men. When they got out in
the street and walked four hundred strong in the parade, the on
lookers and the women themselves were filled with a wave of feeling
that is impossible to emphasize in words. It was worth while.
The women at Nebraska have felt sometimes, that they have not
always had a fair deal, that they have been neglected for some less
important things. The reason for this neglect, which has been par
tially imaginary, has been because of the lack of "push" and enthus
iasm. Many a good movement has been started and then dropped
after a time, and forgotten.
The demonstration last night was wonderful. It is a 6ample of
what the women can do if they will. They have started well. If they
want things in the future, and go after them with the same enthusiasm
they showed last night, they surely will have what they want.
There are about 1,000 students in the University who are eligible
to vote at the coming election. There are ten days before the poll
books close, and the voter can register at the city hall at any time
of day before the time is up.
There are many important issues coming up this election day. and
the vote of every intelligent, educated man in the country will be
needed. And granting that the majority of University students come
in that category, hey should get busy.

FOOTBALL MEN ENROLL IN THE

Two of the most prominent candi

enrolling in the British army, have
given the hopes of the Hoosier men a
slight setback.
John Cannell, star for four years at

football critics the star quarterback
of New England, and G. Coggswell,
captain at Worcester academy, a bril
liant eastern player, are thought now
to be enroute to England, according
to the contents of a letter received by
a member of the college team. Both
men left for Hanover, and came as
far as White River Junction where
they left the squad and took the train
for Montreal. However, Dartmouth is
not alone in bewailing the loss of ath
letes by the war. The annual boat
races between Oxford and Cambridge
