Kntered nt the postolTloe nt Lincoln, Nebraska, as second-class mall matter under the act of Congress of March 3, 1X79. The Nebraskan publishes today a Forum letter which asks the ques tion, "Is the band Koing to Kansas?" The writer expresses his firm belief in the necessity of the band's pres ence when Nebraska battles Kansas for the championship of the Missouri Valley and suggests that, if neces sary, students be tagged to raise money to defray expenses. The Ne braskan is glad to say that such measures are not needed. The band is going to Kansas at the expense of the athletic department as in former years. It is annually entitled to at least one football trip in payment for its advertising services. The ques tion up' for discussion prior to the Michigan game was whether the band should be given an additional trip. The idea of not giving it the one ex cursion has never been countenanced. The band will be there with the root ers to do its share in bringing Ne braska her eighth Valley championship. It would seem that sophomores, with a year's advantage over the freshmen in University environment, would be the last to promote high school play in connection with the annual Olympics. And yet it was a hundred sophomores bent on paint ing hieroglyphics on the faces of every freshman, they could find that started a skirmish between the underclasses which was only halted when one sophomore was thrown un der the wheels of an automobile, miraculously escaping serious injury. Had it not been for the deliberate planning of those second-year men the day of the Olympics would un doubtedly have dawned without any foolish child's play, for there was no evident disposition on the part of the freshmen to take into their own hands the settling of the dispute for which the Olympics were devised as a judge. The Nebraskan does not wish to deny that it cannot see the point of view of the sophomores, nor to pre tend that it is nut a very human one. They were freshmen once, and one memorable night the sophomores of those days, in violation of Uni versity rules and requests, started out on a rampage to wipe up the earth with them. And, since they were mauled, why shouldn't they, in turn, have their fun? This would all be very well were it not for the confounded theory that the world must progress, do what we humans will to turn it backward. If we were all to live on the theory that we are expected to conduct ourselves as did those who have gone before us we would still be in the paleolithic stage of culture, eating raw meat, if we based our actions on the justification we found in the conduct of others we might all be criminals who knows? What the sophomores did not realize is that there must some day, somewhere, be a dropping of loolish, dangerous, college-boy horse play and tnat the sentiment is de cidedly strong in favor of this being the day. They were trying to perpe trate a custom which, although it might have been considered entirely the proper thing twenty or thirty years ago, is now looked upon as an undesirable anachronism. It is too late now to make this a true year when Nebraska's history book of traditions might be relieved of an out-of-date appendix. But The Nebraskan hopes it is not too late to appeal to this year's freshmen those who will be" sophomores next year to take upon themselves the responsi billty of cleaning out the petty play that bubbles up during the last tew hours before the Olympic contests. THE FORUM The Band and Kansas With Missouri out of the way the football team will devote this week getting into shape for the game with Kansas, one of the two Missouri Val ley conference teams Nebraska plays this year. Nebraska was outscored last week but not beaten by the Mich igan Wolverines. But the team played under a handicap in that it was se riously hampered by injuries, which weakened its offensive and defensive power. The condition of the field also gave Michigan an advantage as Yost's men had been playing on a field under similar conditions in pre vious games this season. The third handicap under which the team played was the absence of the band, which many believe was the biggest of the three. There is one question upon the lips of nearly every student on the campus this week: "Is the band going to Kansas or must the team fight the battle at Lawrence alone as it did at Ann Arbor?" Every student seems to feel that if the band had accompanied the" team to Michigan that the score would have been different. The Kan sas game is going to be a fight, and Nebraska if she hopes to win, must bo at her best for the winner of the Kansas fray will undoubtedly be the valley champions. Kansas will be cn her own grounds and will have packed stands to urge her on to victory, while Nebraska will have only a small handful of rooters in the stands to cheer her on. Last Saturday I under stand was the first time a Nebraska football team has ever invaded an other state to defend the honor and prestige of the University, that the band did not accompany it. If this is true, that fact alone bears re membering when we speak of last Saturday's loss. 1 think the band should go to Kan sas at all costs. The team admitted that the band was a great asset in winning the Oregon game a year ago. The failure to send the band to Michi gan was due to the fact that certain elements protested on the grounds that Nebraska was giving t"u3 pro ceeds of the football games this year to the Red Cross and that therefore it was unnecessary expense to send the band along with the teun. I think that perhaps some of those peo ple may have changed their minds since last week. I propose, that if the business men don't think that the sending of the band to Kansas is nec essary that the students take it upon their hands to send the team. We j have been tagged for most every: hing the last year. I believe we could j stand to be tagged to toelp send the j band to Kansas. We would receive , some help from the business houses j if we went ahead with the project, j Let the band give a dance and :he i proceeds be. used to send them to j Kansas. We can send them if we try. Lei's make our slogan, "Semi the j Land to Kansas." j A CORNHrSKEit. ! I receiving a punt immediately after the kick-off. Schcllenberg made the score on a fourteen yard plunge through tackle. Dobson made the next score on a tackle buck of six teen yards following repeated end runs and line smashes. Nebrasna made this score without losing 'he ball after receiving it on the kick off. Schellenberg scored the next two touchdowns on tackle bucks of three and four yards respectively. The lino and backfield worked like a machine in pushing the ball across the field prior to each of these scores. The half ended with the score of 39 to 0. The Second Half The second half opened w ith Schel lenberg receiving the kick-off and re turning it sixty yards to the fifteen yard line. On the fourth play Schel lenberg carried the ball over on a tackle buck. The final score of the day was made by McMahon on a tackle buck after Cook had put the ball in scoring distance with a thirty yard return of a Missouri punt. A real test of the strength of the Cornhuskers came in the third period when, with the help of two fifteen yard penalties the Tigers got tho ball on the Cornhusker 6 yard line with four downs to push it over. They made three yards on the first down and at the end of the four downs had not advanced the ball further. An Incomplete pass on the fourth down, that hit the ground back of the goal line, gave the ball to the Cornhuskers on their twenty-yard line.

Carbon, j head linesman, attracted attention be-j cause of his exactly opposite kind oi i interest in the game. Several times j he was rudely awakened by the j referee's whistle to find that he had forgotten to move the chain. At such times he would wander wildly from one end of the chain to the other apparently wondering which end should be moved and if so how' much. The First Quarter At the start of the game the two teams appeared to be about evenly matched. However, after both had tried to advance the ball a couple of times and had failed, Dobson in tercepted a Missouri pass and, "the stuff was off." Schellenberg went around on the next play for fifty two yards and McMahon fo.i wed with a sprint of 15 yards to a touch down. After that, until the end of the half, the scores came fast. On the next kick-off Missouri re ceived, and after trying the line twice punted. The kick was high and carried far. Just as it was sail ing over Cook's head he leapt up and caught it and then started the sensational run that ended in a touch down. A better combination of dodg ing and interference has seldom if ever been found on a Nebraska team. Cook dodged the first few men, the next two or three were taken down by his team-mates, and the runner dodged the next one, the three Just about to grab him then disappeared from his path all at once, and so it went until the squirming field gen eral had crossed the line. The next touchdown was earned by hard work, on line plays and end runs, without losing the ball, after Tucker-Shean 1123 O Street Mfg. Jewelers and Opticians Dealers in r Watches, Clocks.

The dainty exponent of the Ha waiian dance was In New York when the hula hula took the country by 'storm. Theatrical managers besieged her with offers to dance In this or that musical comedy in vaudeville and in cabarets, but she refused. She was a princess of royal blood and such a thing would be impossible. The man agers raised their offers and pleaded hard and long, but all In vain until One day tho princess was In a party to go to Maxim's after the theatre. A part of the entertainment was the dancing of the hula hula by two sup posedly Hawaiian maids. Kalama saw the dance, and so poorly was it done that rage consumed her at the thought of anyone so maligning the beautiful native dance. Right then and there she decided to show America the real Hawaiian hula hula and she has been showing it ever since, and proving nightly that the much danced hula can be made a thing of beauty.
