the camp of the CornhuskorsSaturdax
and with all this equipment were very
neatly trimmed to thtMune of 19 to 0
The Cornhuskcrs clearly outplayed
tftcir visitors and the score stands as a
rretty good indication of the compar
ative merits of the two teanis.
Schellenberg and Captain Hubka of
the home gang grabbed the laurels fir
individual playing. Circling the end'
and smashing the line, they were al
ways good for gains of from four to
twenty yards. Schellenberg crossed
the Railoonists goal line in the sec
ond quarter for the second touchdown
df the game on a center plunge of one
yard after a fourteen yard run through
the opponents' entire defense.
Captain Hubka's tee accounted for
all the Cornhuskers' punts which
spireled down the field for forty' and
f.fty yards. His l:ne plunges ri end
runs were decided factors In the vic
tory. A twenty-six yard sprint from
a fake punt formation in the first
Quarter brought the ball to the twelve
yard line and within striking distanc
of the goal. A second later, after
Schellenberg and Hovrarth advance 1
to the one yard line, Howarth went
over the center and planned the ball
back of the line for the first touchdown
of the game. In the last five minutes
of play Hubka reeled off another sprint
of 10 yards.
Howarth Scoret
The three touchdowns camo 1- the

after the kick off, when Howarth went
over. The second came in the ten
minutes at the start of the second in
king, when Schellenberg pushed the
oval over in a mass formation after
bringing It fourteen yards to the one
yard line.
The last touchdown was the most
spectacular of the whole fray. It
started about the beginning of the
fourth quarter. From the middle M
the field, Schellenberg skipped goal
ward eighteen yrds. Lantz added
five more and then a perfect paes

Student Army Men Are On

"Discipline in the army means
canning out to the last letier,

commanding officer. My M.a of
discipline Is similar to that
which General Pershing convey,
ed to bis men of the first A. E.

discipline means subconscious
obedience at all times, and at all
places." Capt. E. J. Maclvor.
"I will not delay one minute in re
placing The ban which will comiue the
men to the post with an intensive
training schedule much more rigid
than the men have yet known, should
there be any repetition of the disor
derly conduct of Friday evening,"
said Captain E. J. Maclvor, when In
terviewed Saturday.
The commanding -oiTioer made a
personal inspection of all bnrraks. ok
the city campus Friday evening, find
ing conditions in some places de
plorable. In the Social Science bar
racks and in one room in Nebraska
hall barrack lights were left burning
after taps, and men continued to read,
smoke and talk, in direct contradiction
to all army precedent.- Again on Fri
day morning when the commanding
officer was present at reveille forma
tion, the men showed an absoiute dis
regard of soldierly codnuct.
Disciplinary Orders Issued
Disciplinary orders were issued Fri
day night' which were very strict in
their interpretation. All men quarter
ed in the Social Science building and
those men in the Nebraska hall, who
had violated the regulations, were un
der orders to be confined to the post
for a period of two weeks. No passes
were to be issued to these men; they
were to be allowed none of the liber
ties given other army men with ref
erence to leave of absence, and fur
ther, none of them were to be allowed
to apply for officers' training camps
for the next three quotas selectee
These orders had a profound impres
sion on all members of the unit and
as a result each man felt the personal
regret for his misconduct.
Saturday morning, the men coming
under the ban faced their punishment
with a firm resolve to oo or aie.

GERMANS TALK PEACE
BUT RAVAGE FRANCE
"At the moment the central powers
adiiiess themselves to President Wil
son to obtain an armistice and begfn
negotiations for peace, the German
armies renew the horrors they have
been committing in all the occupied
territories."
So says Jules Cambon, former
French ambassador at Washington
and one of the most prominent liven
in Hance today.
" St. Quenlin, Lens, Cambrai. Donai,
are burned, mined, mined. These
represent the richest terrivy ol
Frame, where the largest French in
dustrial establishment are located
All these centers have a glorious past.
They are filled with splendid moim
mon;s and museums and libraries of
r-ri'fiess tieapiires. In Cambrai stands
the tomb of the illustrious Fenelon.
The conduct of the German armies
is an outrage to civilization and hu
manity." FOE RUINS COAL MINES
TO HURT FRENCH TRADE
The coal pit's at Lens, France, suf
fered enormous damage at the hands
of the Germans when they were fore
ed to retreat last week. Approacher
to pitheads have been rendered im
passible by the creation of enormous
craters. All the working plant, wind
ing gear, and ventilating appliances
have been destroyed and the mine gal
Ivries flooded. Manv galleries alsc
w ere blown up with high explosives at
the last moment before the Germans
bolted.
Lens itself is in "the most frightfu'
slate of devastation. It was burned
and pillaged first by the Germans last
year when the British succeeded in
taking the suburb of Lievin. Before
they were driven out in the present
operations, the Germans carried on
new destruction on a very large scale
Apparently their intention was to
make even the very ruins disappear,
as at Noyon, Bapaume, and other
places. Mines were exploded in the
middle of many streets and at cross
ings, leaving enormous craters.
The German object here has been
evidently to cripple the French, coal
industry for the benefit of the German
trade. At Armentieres the same poli
cy has been pursued. Armentieres
w as the headquarters of French table
linen manufacturing with a turnover
amounting to 120,000.000 a year. By
destroying the linen factories at Arm
entieres the Germans evidently hope
to get the French trade in these goods
a peace conference and to secure an
armistice, German submarines have
renewed their attacks on passenger
ships carrying women and children
and have been responsible for the
loss of over 800 lives on torpedoed
ships.
Nearly 150 women and children
were drowned when a submarine

IN FLYING SIT
University to Raie Quota of
$25,000 in Ten Day
Campaign
Seven Organisations United in
War Work Need 250 Mill
ions by April
The "eero hour" today finds four
thousand loyal students and faculty
members of the University ot Ne
braska tugging at the leashes, ready
to go bounding "over the top" In th?
first great drive of the Unltod War
Work Campaign. Twenty-five thous
and dollars Is the goal to be reached
by the University of Nebraska, which
Is one-half of the total quota of all
Nebraska colleges.
Professor A. A. Reed, who la in
charge of the campaign at the univer
sity, has perfected an organization of
student helpers to assist in the big
drive beginning today. An executive
committee of one hundred girls, of
which Kathcrine Kole is chairmasj,
will supervise the solicting of rubscrlp
tions among all students outride the
S. A. T. C. Eleven teams, each un
der the direction of a leader, will thor
oughly canvass the student body, bto
college, school, department or, org"
ization wiU pass inspection until its
members, by individual subscription,
have made it one hundred per cent.
Meanwhile the student sold.ers of
the S. A. T. C are completing the
preparations for a smashing drive
which will push their detachment
"over the top" in a manner to aston
ish the rest of Hie campus. At a meet
ing held at the Temple Friday night
plans for the drive were partially com
pleted and an unusual spirit of en
thusiasm is already manifest among
the men af the barracks. With the
added eest of compa vy rivalry, the suc
cess of the campaign is expected to
be even more phenomenal than that
of the Liberty Loan drive several
weeks ago.
Backed by Wilson and PersVng
Seven organizations, six of them
active in the European battle zone,
are included in the United War Work
activities. They have been author
ized and encouraged by President
Wilson and General Pershing. In the
field, the Y. M. C. A, Y. W. C. A..
Knights of Columbus, Jewish Welfare
Board, Salvation Army and Americas
Library association conduct army
canteens and nanaie supplies wnicn
ate given special transportation by
the government. This work has been
standardized by General Pershing;
all service in battle zones is tree, and
behind the lines there is a standard
price for all canteen supplies.
At home the war work is conducted
by the War Camp Community Ser
vice in co-operarion with the people
at home. A branch of this service
has recently been established in Lin
coln and is doing a wonderful work
for the boys of the S. A. T. C.
259 Millions to Be Raised
For the maintenance of tbese seven
agencies, a national goal of 250 mill
ion dollars has been set This in
cludes a fifty per cent increase over
the original amount asked for but it
was deemed imperative because of the
more extensive preparations for war
which have been carried on.
With a prospect of the wkt clos
ing there "is an even more essential
need for funds to carry on tbi work.
An Idle army in Europe will demaal
more recreation which can be furnish
ed only under the direction of the
war work activities. The con;pe"'-ng
need for reconstruction will a'so
make a place tor the flow of contribu-
i fions.
