A block of 150 of the choicest

up by members of the Nebraska Uve
Stock commission, who are coming
f.cm South Omaha in a body next Sat
urday to see the Camp Dodge dough

of athletics at the Husker institution.
received the order for the scats yes

tl..- stock men possess will be to the
jn;ng. sleepy Cornhusker crowd
like a spark in a powder barrel.
Every year the men from the South
Omaha stock yards journey to Lincoln
j wi-h a band, and parad the streets
i and then make a lour oi wspauou j

If a few more blocks of seats are j
disjKjsed of at this rate, the turn stiles
will play a little tune as th? crowd
surges through all of which will be
music to the ears of the management
which has been losing money on near
ly every game this season.
Stars in Lineup
The Camp Dodge lineup is made up
of a bunch of old college stars trom
a!3 parts of the country and the Corn
buskers will have to extend them-
selves more than they have had to do
at any time thi ssasou if they pull
down the apricots next Saturday.
Probably the best known player on

Floyd Paynter and Austin Smith

Fraternity Activities Permitted
Not Interfering With Mil-
itary Discipline
Probable Renewal of University
Social Life by Next
Spring
According to an official dispUt h
from Washington, restrictions on the
activities of college fraternities at
student army training corps Institu
tion imposed by the committee on
education of the war department are
ordered removed. The order declares
that no destrietions shall be placed on
fraternity elections, initiations and
meetings except as are necessary to
preserve proper military traiang and
discipline.
This order merely seems to indicate
that the social life of the fraternities
i and sororities that held sway before
the war will soon be in full swing
again. It is highly probable that the
! formal parties and all other social
I off oi,vc: will tw inctitntMl anew bv next

spring.
This order will now permit the men
j to hold their regular meetings at con
j venient times and also allow them to
! stage their regular parties. In'tiations
j which have been postponed by nan
j of the fraternities will now-be held,
j Most of the fraternities which had
abandoned their houses at the be
ginning of the year on account of
having most of their men in barracks
Intend to open np their hous-s if the
S. A. T. C unit is to be disbanded.
This will necessitate many of the fra
ternities obtaining new homes. Club
rooms seem to be the popular means
j of the fraternities for getting togeth
er and meetings will probably be held
in such rendevoux as long as the men
are in barracks.
SINGLE DAY VACATIONS
FOR WINTER HOLIDAYS
War Department May Allow
Changes in University
Schedule
The winter holidays for the home
folks promise to be rather lonely us
less the war department comes forward
with a different schedule for the
school jear. According to the pret
erit schedule, only one day vacaticn
will be for Thanksgiving and one dy
for Christ ma.
Tb present schedule makes :h
cJosp f the first quarter January 4.
3!i I because of the various interra:
lions to the school work since the be
glcning of the year. :he holidays have
bad to be reduced to a minimum.
Plans are being made for diiiLers to
be served in Lincoln homes to the S.
A. T. C. men who cannot go home.
Theie is, however, a possibility that
the war department may allow the uni
versity officials to return to their
usual school schedule. If any changes
are made in the status of the S. A.
T. C. it is probable that this other
change will also be made. Under the
regular university schedule allow
ances can be made for longer holiday
periods.
UNIVERSITY LIBRAE Y IS .
OPEN TO S. A. T. C. MEN
Through misunderstanding or misin
formation S. A. T. C. men do not seem
to be aware that' the university library
is being reserved for their exclusive
use from 7 to 10 every eveninr. Thss?
who are taking courses which re 30 re
library reading are expected to ar
range with their officers for atte .1
ance at the library during those hours.
