Nebraska, as second-class mall matter
under the act of Congress of March S,
1879.
Your friend in the army will he the
topic for discussion at a mass meeting
of ail students this evening at 7
o'clock in the Armory- A man noted
in Y. M. C. A. war work will tell you
of army conditions, conditions as he
actually worked with them, and he
will tell you of the plan to raise In
the University (15,000 as the part
Nebraska wants to give for the pro
tection of the moral life of her sol
diers. He will put the matter straight
up to you as it should be put, without
gl6ves. It Is a question of whether or
not you are willing to give something
for a cause directly devised to watch
out for your chum and his chums in
the rank and file of America's vast
army. You may not be able financial
ly to give much, but you can give
something. Go tonight and learn the
reasons why your help is needed.
In keeping with the spirit of the
times the first production of the Uni
versity players for the season will be
given as a benefit for the French War
Orphan fund. That is sufficient rea
son why it deserves a record-breaking
opening night Bat there are
other reasons. A production by the
University players Is welcomed out
in the state with more gusto than the
stock companies that hit the Trans
continental trail, and they should be
a least as much appreciated at home.
The play, "The Piper," is an unusual
one and is costing the department of
dramatics more In royalties than any
they have presented for several sea
sons. The performance will be a very
appropriate one with which to start
the dramatic season and the cause to
which the box office receipts will go
is, needless to say, deserving Stu
dents should make their arrange
ments for Friday evening accordingly.
Nebraska is preparing to welcome
her war-time Homecomer. We will
all be glad to see him; gladder, in
fact, than ever, because we appre
ciate bim more these days than we
did before. We know better now how
much he means to Nebraska, and how
much he is doing for her in this crisis.
In our pleasure at the anticipation
of his coming did you ever stop to
wonder whether he would be very
glad to see us? Of course he will be
happy to bet back on the campus
again, to make the rounds, to greet
his former instructors, and to see a
Nebraska football team better than
those he used to cheer to victory wal
lop the Missouri Tigers, but will he
be pleased with the attitude of stu
dents he meets? He will be a very
fair and very critical Judge of our
worth, what have we to show him?
Will he find the same careless, care
free point of view we used to hare
when our worries and burdens w.ere
less, or will he find a truly serfous
minded student body working hard to
prepare itself for a definite service?
Will he find a University spirit
divided into innumerable other gang
loyalties, disrupted by rowdyism and
shammed by an overconfident con
ceit, or will he find a stronger, more
strongly centered, franker Nebraska
spirit? The Nebraskan - opes and be
lieves that be wfl find us truly in
tune with the duty we have at hand.
Commercial Club
The Commercial clus will meet
Thursday evening. November 8, at 7
o'clock. A speaker will be present
and a short business meeting will be
held. Place of meeting will be an
nonnced on the bulletin boards and In
The Nebraskan. AH are urged to be
out.
STEWART LENGTHENS DAY
WITH AID OF "GHOST BALL"
Long Practises Helping to Off
set Loss of Old Men for
Missouri Game
For the first time in the history of
Nebraska! football the Cornhuskers
practiced with a genuine "ghost ball"
last night. A ghost ball is nothing
more nor less than a white football.
It is not painted white; the leather is
tanned white. Coach Stewart will
give his men several hours of experi
ence with the ghost ball before the
season has come to a close.
Dobson, who has not been absent
from the lineup in the four games Ne
braska has played this year received
a severe Jolt on the leg yesterday af
ternoon that may prove serious. It
had not been learned late last night
whether a small bone had been broken
or not. Dobson would be the most
serious loss to the team that could
be suffered. His line smashing and
open-field work, coupled with his kick
ing are assets that the Cornhuskers
will need in every game that remains
on the schedule.
Antbes, a new man who has not
been given a trial in any of the games
so far this season was given a work
out at the right-end position yesterday.
Although lacking in weight and ex
perience Anthes is possessed of a large
amount of speed and nerve and with
experience will develop into a valu
able man. If Anthes is used at end
Sam Kellogg will probably be played
in the backfield where his weight and
speed can be used to the greatest ad
vantage in advancing the ball.
Shaw. Otoupallk and Riddell were
all on the sideline last night keeping
clear of scrimmage. Coach Stewart Is
making preparations to start the game
without the three veterans as it is
practically certain that all of them
will have to watch the battle from -the
side-lines. It had been hoped for a
while that at least Captain Shaw
would be able to get into the fracas,
but his injuries have refused to mend
as rapidly as expected and the coach
has been grooming men to take his
place. Just who will be given the
chance to fill in at right tackle, is
still a guess. To date DuTeau and
Young have the call on the position.
Young being in the better condition of
the two will probably be chosen to
start the game.
A hitherto unlooked-for jinx has put
in his appearance at the Cornhusaer
camp in the way of ineligibility. It
has never been necessary in the past
to worry over the outcome of mid-semester
examinations as they have al
ways come near the close of the sea
son. This year they came the week
after the Michigan trip and as' a re
sult some of the men are on - the
ragged edge. Other schools of the
valley will have the advantage over
the Cornhuskers on this score, as their
examinations - will not come early
enough to interfere with their players'
eligibility.

MEMORIAL CONVOCATION
FOR E. BENJAMIM ANDREWS
(Continued from Page 1)
Sufneld for two years. From 1875 to
1879, Dr. Andrews was president of
Denison university. From his work
at Denison he was called in 1879 to
the chair of Homiletics and Pastoral
theology in the Newton Theological
Institution. Three years later be be
came professor of history and po
litical economy at Brown university.
Dr. Andrews was chancellor of tbe
University of Nebraska from 1990 to
1908."
His Boyhood Days
Ex-Regent W. G. Whltmore, a boy
hood friend of Chancellor Andrews,
told of his character as it appeared
to one more intimately associated
with him.
"Among the earliest recollections of
my life are those of a group of a
score or more of healthy, happy, husky
boys from five to fifteen years of
age, sons of a few families in a rather
isolated little New England neighbor
hood, scarcely large enough to be
called a village. Foremost among them
was Ben Andrews I speak the old
familiar name reverently natural
born leader among boys as he after
ward became a leader of men. Of
bim. as of Lincoln, it might be truly
said that his earfy home experiences
were comprised in the single line
'the fhort and simple annals of the
poor.' While poor in wordly goods
he has the inestimable advantage of
being well bora. Ben's father was a
minister of the parish.'
"When he was only seventeen or
eiptheen years old be enlisted. Ben
was soon promoted through the va
rious noncommissioned offices. It was
wben be was a lieutenant in command
of a, field battery wben a gunner
flinched in performing bis duty, Lieu
tenant Andrews leaphd forward,
seized the primer and fired tbe gun
that be lost his eye."
Religiously Devoted to His Work
"We whose privileges it was to
work with Dr. Andrews either as
regents or members of the faculty,
know a few others can know, how
completely and religiously he devoted
hiB talents and his great heart to the
good of the University and the state.
The influence of the man Is inestim
able. He has left the impress of his
character upon a whole generation
of educated men and women."
"While touring in Florida last win
ter, Mrs. Whltmore and I spent a few
hours in Dr. and Mrs. Andrews' home
in Interlachen. Dr. Andrews was
brought in his wheel chair out on the
broad, sunny veranda. Though un
able to move a limb or a hand, utterly
helpless, his mind was yet clear and
active and his old-time keen humor
frequently flashed out in his conver
sation." "He manifested a lively interest in
university matters and inquired about
Lincoln friends. As we parted from
him, feeling certain it was for the
last time, he said cheerily: 'Tell the
boys I am all right,' and from his
eye gleamed the courage that still
dominated his great soul."
