v Wednesday Night
Officers Elected and Resolutions
Prepared Against Aliens
and LW. W.
Two hnidrtd university cx-servce !
men organized the permanent chapter
of the American Legion at a meet
ing in the Temple theater, Wednes
day night, electing permanent officers
and making first plans for club
rooms, general management and fi
nances. Luther W. Cobbey was'elected post
commandant almost without opposi
tion und Ralph W. Wilson was chosen
chairman of the executive committee.
Charles S. Reed is vice post com
candant, John J. O'Brien, post adjut
ant, Benjamin Huntington, post
treasurer and Roy Bedford, John
Rlddell, Orville H. Ralston and Ernest
Schelbltz, members of the executive
committee. All officers except Wil
son are student members of the
legion, Mr. Wilson representing the
faculty. Retiring officers include
Dean O. V. P. Stout, post command
antand Dean P. M. Buck, chairman of
the executive committee.
Upon motion of Ralph Wilson, the
meeting went on record as demand
ing the immediate deportation of all
enemy aliens who were interned dur
ing the war. Other resolutions were
offered but all were finally referred to
a committee on resolutions which will
report at the next meeting. Discus
s'.cn was common over the trouble
with the I. W. W. organization In
Washington where participants of an
Armistice day parade were killed by
members of that organization, and
re.wlutions concerning that incident
will be offered for approval at the
next meeting.
The question of securing a room
for use as headquarters of the uni
versity post was raised by Dean Buck
who declared that while the legion
post was not and would not be a uni
versity organization, that the univer
sity would be glad to furnish such an
office room and this will be Investi
gated at once. Dues to the amount
of fifty cents per member for the de
fraying of local expenses Including
the expenses of the delegates to the
state convention, were approved.
ORPHEUM HAS
UNUSUAL BILL
Carl Jorn, distinguished tenor for
merly of the Metropolitan Opera
House of New York and the Royal
Opera of London, heads an excellent
bill at the Orpheum this week. His
voice was In splendid condition and he
sang several operatic selections from
Rigoletto as well as a number from
Pagllacci. A beautiful vocal Interpre
tatlon of "I Hear You Calling Me" was
appreciated by the audience.
George Kelly assisted by a compe
tent company including G. Davidson
Clark, Doris Dagmar, Alice Parks,
and Polly Redfern presented one of
his own clever farces with a moral
called, "The Flattering Word." Mr.
Kelly was recently starred to "Finders
Keepers" and "Woman Proposes." Jul
ius Tannen brought down the house
with a bombastic fifteen minutes of
wit and continuous humor in his act,
"Speaking the Human Mind."
Frank Burt and Myrtle Rosedale
appear in a novel entertainment close
ly bordering on a one-act musical
satire. The Ja-Da trio, composed of
the "boys" who put "Ja-Da" in song
Ian i, gave their own interpretation of
that dance craie of last winter, which
was composed by Mr. Carleton. a mem
ber of the trio.
TVlth an opening scene depleting a
farmhand and two maiden scarecrows
in a deserted cornfield, John Retaj,
and The Lorraine ' Sisters offer a
unique repertoire of Dent dancing.
The Belgium Trio, jugglers of human
beings, toss persons on the stage as
tho they were Indian dubs or hand
balls, and conclude a program of un
usual merit.

the freshmen are making last prepara
tions to ensure a decisive victory oveh
the sophomores In their clash the
morning of the Home-Comlng game.

eight members chosen, is in need of
four more huskies to make the team
complete. Any man who is interested
in this kind cf work should report to

NATION TO OBSERVE
A WEEK OF PRAYER
Sunday a Day of Intersession for
Young Men of Two
Nations
Over the entire nation the week of
November 9 to 16 inclusive fs to be
a week devoted to prayer. The call
for Intersession on behalf of the
young men and boys of the two great
sister Anglo-Saxon nations, the
United States and Canada, is Issued
with a profound sense of the supreme
need at the present time.
In the years of the war the Amerl
ran and Canadian young men, by
their patriotic response to the call of
the country and civilization, Dy meir
discipline and heroism and by their
devotion even unto death, won tne
undying gratitude of their country
men and helped to establish the liber
ties of the world. It is fitting and
proper therefore that the two na
tions pause to pay tribute to the boys
who so willingly laid down their
lives and also to Intersede for those
who still lije and have the responsi
bilities of the future on their should
ers. On the authority of the last Inter
national Convention of the Y. M. C.
A. this week was chosen for all Chris
tian people to Join together in prayer,
The churches over the land have
made & splendid response to the call
and are cooperating with the associ
ation In laying plans for the week.
Rsv. t O. Young to Speak
Reverend L. D. Young will give an
address at the public meeting for all
university students on the first day
of the week of prayer, Sunday No
vember 16. The meetlnr will be neia
in th Temple theater at three o'clock.
This meeting Is being sponsored by
the two university assocls'laB an is
supported by the Lincoln churches.
It is for the purpose or organizing
t( combat this historic Kansas cneer
that the rally Is held today. Football
games are often won by the cheering
of the standa and In this respect the
dope leuns heavily toward the Kansas
Miction. All Cornhusker students must
te present to help perfect a cheering
unit thnt will wipe the Jayhawk3 off
their feet and put renewed com age
j.nd valor in the hearts of the wen ers
of the Scarlet and the Cream. Coach
Schulte, Captain Dobson, Professors
Cocnran, Fee and Scolt will address
the meeting and they will be there
with drums roaring and bugles
screeching. Let every true Cornhusk
er attend this rally and "do his bit"
to defeat the Jayhawkers.

Thursday Night
More Tryouts Arranged for To
night and Unless They are
Successful Freshman
Will Win
After I wo unsuccessful attempts to
hold sophomore Olympic tryouts,
when only a handful of loyal second
year fighters appeared on the scene
gloom has pervaded the ranks of the
sophomores. Through no lack of initi
ative or work on the part of the So
phomore Olympics Coram' e has this
condition come to pass. It is merely
the fact that so far second-year men
have not shown enough spirit and
interest to care whether or not they
get "whipped" Saturday morning
This is a deplorable status, and
every member of the sophomore class
should feel that it is his or her own
duty to school and class organization
lo take an Interest, if not an active
part, In the games between the under
classes. Before, It has always been
the case that many sophomore 'dark

HOME COMING
BATTLE IS WITH
ANCIENT RIVAL
Kansas is Coming On Special
Train Confident of Win
ning from Nebraska
Huskers Are in Fine Form and
Should Give the Jay
Hawkers More Trouble
Than They Expect
The 1919 Home-coming day will wit
ness a struggle to the finish between
the picked sons of Nebraska and the
defend rs of the Sunflower. A team
skilled In every department of the
game will represent the Jayhawkker
state and the wearers of the Scarlet
and the Cream must exert themselves
to the limit and exhibit the vlir. and
fire that has always been the predom
inant characteristic or CornnuFMii
elevens.
The Kansans believe, and not with
out reason, that Nebraska's eleven of
this year is not up to the standard of
bygone days and consequently are con
fident they will carry home the Husk
ers' bacon.
Schulte's men are on the job and are
preparing diligently for the Jayh&w
er Invasion. That the Jay hawkers
have profound belief in their ability to
trounce the Nebraskans, is easily per
ceived in the following dispatch to
the Nebraskan:
From Kansas
Lawrence, Kans., Nov. 12 A strong
eleven of first string Jayhawkers will
meet the Nebraska Cornhuskers next
Saturday in Lincoln, unless the unfor
seen happens and some of Coacn Mc
carty's Kansas men are injured In
practice this week. Practically all the
men are In good shape now with the
exception of Kampert, a fighting tac
kle, who was forced out of the oila
homa game with a twisted knee, ana
h strong team, with an eye on the
Missouri Valley title, will be sent
against the Northerners.
Practically all the work this week
In preparation for the Nebraska game
will be done in strengthening the of
fensive. The stonewall defense Kan
sas has developed will be considered
f.,ood enough for the team that wrn so
against the Cornhuskers. Two second
string tackles. Church and Mcrxen,
were In the game Saturday and still
the defense did not weaken. Coach
McCarty has not announced whether
or not any new plays will be uaea.
None were developed for Oklaho.nn,
but It Is possible a few new ones will
be tried against Nebraska.
