FOOTBALL RALLY
REVEALS SPIRIT
Old Time Nebraska Pep in Evi
dence at Yesterday's
Demonstration .
'We're Going to Can Kansas,"
the Cry of Every
Student
A revival of the old-time Nebraska
spirit and pep which-is goin to put
the Jayhawkers to rout next Saturday
made the first all-university rally on
the athletic field yesterday go off
with a bang. A big crowd, good
speakers and the efforts of this cheer
leaders made the grandstand echo and
re-echo to the demonstrations of en
thusiasm. Nebraska has been sauly
lacking in its support of the team this
year, but everyone left the rany this
morning with the Idea, "We've got to
lick Kansas and we're going to."
Another enthusiasm-making factor
was the band with its pep-producing
music and military appearance. The
S. A. T. C marched to the field.
It has always been considered a
disgrace for Kansas to beat Nebraska,
but that very same thing happened
two years ago, when Nebraska bad
the stronger team, but failed to de
deliver the "punch necessary- to win
the game. In order to prevent a repe
tition of that defeat to Nebraska's
weakened team, everyone has to get
behind that team and root, root, root.
When the Cornhusker song, "Come
a Runnin' Boys," is played every' Hus
ker must rise. He must know the
songs and the yells. You can't put
them across if you don't know them.
Walter Blunk presided over the
rally.
Coach Kline Appeals
Coach Kline urged a larger attend
ance at the games and that everyone
learn the songs and the yells. He said
"mt the team would play just like the
people in the bleachers cheer. A 'team
laving every man but one playing his
first year of football needs every bit
cf support loyal Nebraskns can give.
Kanss3 would rather lose every other j
frame and beat Nebraska, than lose
to Ntbrask and win every other game,
t' r- coach declared.
"We've just canned the Kaiser and
ve're going to can Kansas," was Miss
lirLkova's message, "and it's 'I he evcr
lastin' teamwork of every bloomin'
foul' that's going to do It.'
Professor Scott in the closing talk,
ruadp every one who hadn't Acquired
Hie maximum amount of -iep jump to
Lis net and give the yells with all tha j
'Z power he possessed. "'Don't lc a j
quitter," he said. "Every one who
knows anything about Kansas knows
H:al old 'Kansas fight,' the "never-five-up'
spirit." In order to combat
'hat successfully Cornhuskers will
have to yell, ye-11 loud and yell long.
Just as the Jayhawk was downed
3 from the beginning of the game to
Hie end, so will he be this year if every
f'ornhus'ker will turn out for tbe game
"nd simply drown the "Rock-chalk.
Jay-hawk.

SOMEBODY'S pOLLARS
WILL DO ITI WON
DER IF THEY'LL BE
YOURS?
By Bruce Barton.
I will tell you what will hap
pen some night this winter in
France. Some night when lt'
cold and dark.
There will be a rustling
through lines, where crr boys
stand guard. And a heaven lad
tried secretary will make his
way along.
In his -hands will be great'
steaminq pets; in his pocket
chocolate and cigarettes.
From one man to another he
will go, passing a cup full of hot
coffee to hands that tremble
with the cold; bringing the com
fort of a bit of sweet and a
smoke.
Men will hail him cheerily,
siapping him on the back; and
when he has gone things will be
a little easier in that trench be
cause he has passed that way.
How much will it cost to make
that trip do you suppose?
counting the pittance that the
secretary is paid, and the cost
of the chocclate and the cigar
ettes and all?
Five dollars? Twenty-five
dollars? I do not know.
But whether it is five dollars
or twenty-five, I'd like to think
that it is my five or twenty-five
wouldn't you? That same
roiht when its cold and lone
some, my money and yours
might send a secretary out along
that line. Let's make up on
minds that we are going to pay
fcr a score of those trips. A
score of the nights this winter
shall be our nights.
nights when the boys greet
joyously the chocolate and cigar
ettes that our money provided;
and are happier because our rep
resentative has passed.

SCHELLY RETURNS

May Pnll Into Camp in Time to
Battle Against Kansas
Tomorrow
Kline "Withholds His Jubilation
and Awaits Developments
Lantz Called Home
The news that Schelienberg may re
turn from Camp Grant in time to par
ticipate in the Husker-Jayhawk game
next Saturday, spread over the campus
like lard in a hot skillet yesterday, and
Nebraska stock shot skyward n the
manner of a star shell and chased the
gloom clouds off the premises.
Captain Maclvor spilled the beans
at the football rally yeserday morning
and Coach Kline and Director Scott
nearly jumped out of their seats for
the telegram containing the news was
hot off the wire. It is not an absolute
certainty that the star halfback will
pull into camp in time to jump into the
moleskins before Saturday's battle,
but he and the other infantry candi
dates are to be sent back to Nebratka
forthwith as all calls to officers'
schools have been cancelled.
The Nebraska commandant was noti
1
fied that the officers' camps had bee.-. ' -f
closed just after the last contingent
boarded the cars...Ior Illinois Shel--.
lenberg was intercepted at Chicago
and if he could catch a west bouud
freight or a fast mail train he might
be able to reach Lincoln by- Saturday,
the captain stated.
In spite of the encouraging outlook.
Coach Kline refused to become too
jubilant and optimistic. Bill Lantz,
the midget halfback, was called borne
to Ravenna, Nebraska, yesterday on
account of sickness in bis fam'ly. and
may not be able to play tomorrow.
The coach is planning on using How
arth, Jobes, Martin, Hartley and Rey
nold's 5n the back field and :s not pin
ning much, faith on Schelly's return.
Of course if he does get back in t:r.ie
it will be like a life line to a drown Ii.g
man and Nebraska's chances will laV,;
a bound.

Of S WELCOME TARDY
ADVENT OF "FAY DAY"
Yesterday was pay Car for be nr:i
in th local army training crrps.
All was joy in the barracks last
evening:. Because cf an error, the reg
ular pay day was nearly two weeks
later than u.-ual and as a result, most
cf the men were either "broke" in
spirit, or in pocketbook. Many were
borrowing necessary funds from tbeir
good friend. "Bill," or from tome oth
er capitalist.
Me'ancboly reigned supreme until
the magic words "pay Cay" were bent
broadcast yesterday. Men waled to
and fro. displaying a smile thai simply
would cot wear off. With hands far
down in tbeir jeans jingl ng that in
definite something mhich was the
cause of tbeir Jolli5ci lion, ail men
lucky enough to receive their first gov
ernment pay, were supremely fceppy.
A very noticeable feature aVMJt the
pay day this month was the fact tbit
a majority of the nun w-re paying
for Liberty Bonds, In add.tk.n to th;: r
regular insurance payment. Hecau-e
