ATHLETIC FIELD TO R EVER BRATE
WITH
CSS
Sill
Monster Pep Meeting and Rally
Held on Gridiron This
Morning:
Nebraska Students and Faculty
Will Congregate to Stimu
late Wan'ng Spirit
With b'ood in his eye and vislonr cf
slaughter the Kansas Jay-hawk Is
raring to invade the Hunker's lines on
Saturday and capture the camp. Ddt
Nebraska antiaircraft spirit will
catch him on the wing, and he will
drop, torn and tattered, on th s center
of Nebraska athletic field. Pep, to the
n'th degree is what will win the vic
tory for Nebraska. This morning on
the at-hletic .field the greatest dem
onstration of enthusiasm that has
ever been witnessed in football circles
will make the bleachers reverberate
and echo with the determination or
loyal Nebraskans to keep the Kansas
bunch from revenging the defeat or
last year.
Meet at Grandstand
The grandstand on the north side
of the field has been chosen as the
pjace to hold the monster football
rally. Every student and faculty
member in the university will be
there.
The season here has beeu unusu
ally upset this" year on account of
the number of games that have had to
be cancelled because of the "flu" ban.
Hence Nebraska spirit has .been al
lowed a good long rest. The time has
come, however, when it must be re
vived! Kansas is coming up here
strong in team work, individual play
ers and pep. But most of all is their
determination to repeat ' the awful
story of 1916 when they beat Nebras
ka for the first time in seven years
by a score of Beven to three. Having
once tasted blood they are thirsty for
more, and the team they have war
rants the thought now prevalent in
Lawrence that they will win.
Such an end to Saturdays game
must not be. So, KVERYBODV OUT
TO BKAT KANSAS is the cry.
Rally at Eleven
The rally will bestn at eleven
o'clock this morning on the athletic
field. The main business of the meet
ing being to" gather some pep for Sat
urday, the cheerleaders will be on
hand to lead the grandstand in the
practicing of jells. Nebraska songs
will also be rehearsed. S. A T. C.
men, headed by the Nebraska craek
erjack band, will form and march out
to tire field. Professor R. O. Scott,
Captain Maclvor and Coach Kline are
scheduled for some rousing alks.
A special appeal Is made to the
glrlsjn the school to come out in full
strength. In other years they have
shown that they have been gifted with
an unusually lusty set of lungs and
know how to use them. The teim
needs the girls to cheer as well as
the men.
Drcwn the Jay-Hawk
Last year the team went to Kansas
The game started with some thous
anus of Kansas rooters to a mere
handful of Nebraska supporters. On
the kick-off, everv Kansan at the
game was on his feet giving the fa
mous jaw-hawk chant. But the sec
tion of Nebraskans was not to be out
done and from the beginning of the
zame until the end, they yeutd, and
yelled until they were hoarse. " Even
the power of the Jaw-hawk . was lost
when Nebraska yelled. And the
Huslters won the day. The team said
that the cheering was as much respon
3ible for the victory as the actual
playing. Kansas remembers that
?ame and is determined to come up
here and pile up a score that will wipe
out the defeat of last year.
That must not happen. The grand
stand must be filled this morning and
every seat must be taken Saturday.
Pep will win the game. Nebraska
rooters must be. back of Nebraska
players. Kansas' scalp must be added
to Fort Omaha's.
EVERYBODY OUT TO BEAT
KANSAS.

PROF. J. C. GILLEN
ON CIVILIAN RELIEF
Chairman of Central Division
Speaks Before S. A. T. C.
at Temple
Professor J. G. Gillen, chairman of
the central division for civilan relief
during the war, told what the Red
Cross is doing for the families of our
soldiers and sailors in a talk to the
S. A. T. C. at the Temple last night
at seven-thirty.
" i'No country has made such gener
ous provision for its men and for their
families in ths war as has the United
States," Professor Gillen said. "With
the exception of the general and lieu
tenant general of the British army,
there are no soldiers who receive as
much pay as the soldiers in our army.
This is true concerning their families
also. No country has passed such far
seeing laws in regard to compensa
tion, insurance, etc., as tho United
States."
In those cases where the govern
ment allowance and a man's pay were
not sufficient to fupply his family, the
government asked the Red Cross to
eee that the family had enough. - Th4
society apportioned the country into
fourteen divisions, thirteen for the
malnia u J And cue for
WE SHALL NOT SLEEP
"In Flanden fields the popples
blow
Between the Crosses, row on
row,
That mark oir place; and In
the sky
The larks stilt bravely olnglng
fly,
Scarce heard amidst the guna
below.

We are the dead.
Short days ago we lived, felt
dawn,
Loved and were loved, and now
we lie "
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the
foe.
To you from falling hands we
throw the Torch be yours
to hold it high;
If ye break faith with us who
die,
We shall not sleep, though
poppies grow
In Flanders fields."

(Contlnued on page 4)
Definite plans have been prepared
for the future of the students' army
training camps, according to a tele
gram from S. A. T. C. headquarters
received yesterday. The telegram
further stared that the unit would con
tlnne military and academic work
without interruption, regardless of the
fact that an armistice has been de
clared. Official announcement will be
mstrio Roon concerning a definite fu
lure program.
Numerous wild rumors have been
r mi la ted about the barracks since
the declaration that the war was offi
fiaiiv at an end. Members of the
.V. ..J
unit have been unable to do more than
make guesses as to their future ac
tions as soldiers in Uncle Sam'a army
The announcement that the unit will
not be interferred with in any way,
and that the program would be car
ried forward vigorously, will serve as
a stimulus to all men stationed in the
Cornhusker barracks.
Renewed Vigor In All Work
Captain Maclvor announced yester
day that all military and academic
work would be carried forward wun
renewed vigor. Special emphasis is to
r.ia.0 nnnn the scholarship of
a I7iu vvv. r-
each individual and every man will be
required to attend every class regu
larly. All absences reported to mil
itary headquarters will be dealt w'th
in the most rigid manner. Academic
credits and scholarships will be con-
idered hereafter in all recommenda
tions' for officers' training camps.
Study Hour at Eleven
A special study h6ur between
eleven o'clock and noon, will be set
aside for all members of Section A,
and any man found idling during this
period will be punished severely. All
men who do not have regularly assign
ed classed during this period will be
required to devote the entire hour to
hi academic work. Men are especially
cautioned against leaving the post
during this hour.

UNIVERSITY IS FAR BEHIND -
in lie wo quota
But $5,000 Subscribed With the has repeatedly emphasized this aspect
Campaign Now Half
Over
Two Days Remain for Students
to Revive The'r Lost
Enthusiasm
If the University of Nebraska Is not
to fall in the campaign to raise $25,00(5
for the War Work activities students
must put forth their supreme efforts
in the two days remaining in which
to complete the quota. One thousand
dollars was the total reported by the
solicitors Wednesday, with most of
the S. A. T. C. subscriptions in
complete. In the next two days, the
final drive to raise the remaining
eighty per cent of the quota necessary
to put the university "over the top"
must take place. .
The failure of university students
to live up to their former standards in
responding to appeals for war funds
can not be determined. Last year
more than $20,000 was raised in a sin
gle day In the great war work rally
conducted by the university. "Over
the top" in Liberty Bond and Red
Cross campaigns, and leading in all
patriotic movements Nebraska stu
dents appear to have lost their old
time and spirit and enthusiasm in the
present campaign, perhaps the last of
the big war drives.
Competes With Other Universities
In this, as well as in other phases
of war work, the University of Ne
braska is competing with five hun
dred other universities, some of whom
have practically completed their
quotas. Captain Edmund J. Maclvor
of the situation and the fact that the
university has a reputation to live up
to. Under his leadership the S. A. T.
C. unit !s striving to uphold Nebras
ka's standards along military lines,
and in the campaign each company
gives promise of becoming a 100 per
cent organization. Nearly every man
1 has promised a pledge of ten dollars or
more. It is left to the remainder of
the university to complete the task
of raising the quota.
No Time for Relaxation
With the wave of relaxation appar
ently increasing it is up to univer
sity men and women to check the
spread of the movement. Dy fulfilling
their obligations In the war work
drive they can prove that they are at
least able to handle the situation here.
America's millions will be Heeded in
reconstruction work, In recreational
and educational programs abroad, and
to sorce extent In the work to be done
at home. The $25,000 quota of the uni
versity is exceedingly small when
compared to vast sums to be raised
and the magnitude of the work to be
accomplished.
