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. A sprinkling of
students in the chapel heard the first
reports, but when the game was well , Lincoln ; Edna Fitzsimmons, Lincoln,

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.

work, ber studies in India and Egypt
and explained much of her work on
the stage.
Later in the evening a one-act plan
"The Girl of My Dreams," was pro
duced by club members. The parts
were taken by Carolyn Kimball, Ralph
Anderson. Irwin Clark, Paul Hagelin
and Carlisle Jones. The usual busi
ness and social meeting concluded the
program.

PRICE FIVE CENTS

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.
JUNIORS AND
SENIORS IN TIE
Game Ends 6 to 6 Juniors Play
Better Second Contest to Take
Place This Week
The Junior and senior football
teams battled to a 6 to 6 tie on Ne

slightly better football. The seniors

behind the goal line and Dempster of
the seniors fell upon it for a touch
down. The Juniors' score came in the
last quarter by means of a forward
rass, Baumann to Purney, and a 60
yard run for a touchdown. The tie
necessitates another game to decide
the championship and thus will prob
ably be played next Wednesday.
The game in detail:
First half Captain Baliman of the
seniors won the toss and chose to de
fend the east goaL Doty kicked off
