STUDENTS CHEERED GAMEJN ARMORY 600 STUDENTS HEARD NEBRAS KAN'S RUNNING STORY True Nebraska Spirit in Evidence at Battle Rooting Nearly Raised the Roof The Daily Nebraskan's running story of the Iowa game last Saturday was -witnessed by six hundred stu dents who crowded the chapel audi torium, cheered when the Cornhusk ers slashed their way through the Iowa line to victory, and rooted them selves hoarse with yells of delight as touchdown after touchdown was piled up against the Hawkeyes. So great was the joy in the crowd, j so much fun did everyone have at the game, that it seems safe to assert that the custom started by The Daily Nebraskan this fall will be repeated from this time on. and students here after will get together at the Univer sity to follow the fortunes - of their team, in foreign territory. One could easily picture the day when, in an auditoriufi capable of holding the " - tire student body, Nebraska will re - ceive their special leased wire story from the front and make sure that the psychic wave fails not to make As in fluence felt. The Iowans surprised the folks at home by commencing the game at 2 o'clock, and even the telegraph oper ator was not at his instrument when the battle began.

THANKSGIVING HERE, BUT NOT IN EUROPE WAR PRISONERS MAKE APPEAL TO NEBRASKA STUDENTS Students Will Be Given Last Oppor tunity to Contribute This Week to Relief Fund Nebraska University students are ready to enjoy Thanksgiving vacation. They are looking fomward to the big day when, Notre Dame beaten, they can go home, put their feet under the old home table, and ask for second and third and fourth helpings of mother's turkey. But there is no Thanksgiving in the prison camps of Europe. Today and tomorrow tables will be placed on the campus and in the halls of the University buildings, at which pledges will be received for the Uni versity prison relief fund. It will be the last opportunity for the students to contribute to alleviate the suffer ings that have wrung the heart of the world, and to show in some way their appreciation of the splendid courage of the European, be his country what ever it may. It will be the last opportunity for Nebraska University to make some small return for the debt tlte Univer sity owes the soil that has produced the men who have made American as well as European civilization possible.

PRICE FIVE CENTS EM 0V1 The students have responded, but not as generously as they can, surely not as generously as they will, to the tund that will do more than anything else to build for the world's best future. The men in prison camps cannot get back into battle for the custom of exchanging prisoners is not fol lowed in modern warfare. They can only live from day to day, from hour to hour, from minute to minute, eating the same meal of soup aid rolls, just enough to keep alive. They can share only the same thin blanket, just heavy enough to prevent freezing. They can only sit and suffer, unless America extends the hand of brotherhood and by giving them real food, providing them warm blankets, furnishing them victrola mu sic, lets them know that this great nation can find time from its selfish pursuits to feel a sympathy for the nations across the water. The opportunity to contribute to the European relief fund is the test of the milk of human kindnes in the Ne braska student's breast Will the re sults show paltry hundreds, or the thousands of dollars that this, the Uni versity of the richest state in the union, should contribute. Thanksgiving for America, but no Thanksgiving for Europe. Nebraska students have an opportunity of mak ing a Christmas for the sufferers in the war prison camps.
