tina flags and ribbons that will be
displayed in the Y. W. C. A. rooms ot

roses, laikspur and Easier lilies. Fur
ther she writes: "We are at present
olmr language study in Ia Plata
which is about an hour's ride from
Uuenos Aires. I am living in an Ar
Kcntine family where no one speaks
word of English. I told two digni
lied gentlemen at dinner last night
that they were stupid when all 1
meant to say was that they were late.
Fortunately I discovered my mistake
in time to apologize- There have boeu
no boats down the east coast since we
arrived so all the mail I have had i1
some family letters which were ad
dressed to me in Chili." Miss Drake's
many Nebraska friends can reach her

POLITICAL RUMORS
SWEEPING CAMPUS
(Coutinued from Page One.)
Gamma Phi Beta; Wallace L. Farrar
and Wallace D. Craig, Sigma Chi.
Whether the office of junior presi
dent is to be contested could not be
ascertained. The only name rumor
has brought to the "Rag" office is
James A. Lucas, an Alpha Sigma Phi.
It is customary to elect the junior
managing editor of the Cornhusker for
editor-in-chief the following jear.
Jack Landale, Sigma Nu, is the junior
managing editor this year.
Due to the tight wall that Miss Mc
Cahey has erected about the filing for
the coming election, information can
be obtained only in drlbblings. Doubt
less, other candidates have filed.
The offices to be filled are those of
senior, junior, sophomore and fresh
men presidents, Ivy Day orator, editor-in-chief
of the Cornhusker for 1921,
business manager and managing edi
tor of the same.
HUSKERS REST
BEFORE BATTLE
(Continued from Page One.)
throughout the whole country. The Ag
gies do not know what it is to have a
second rate basketball team and the
1920 five Is no exception to this rule.
Huskers Take Rest
No practice was held by the Corn
husker team yesterday. Coach Schis
sler believing that a thorough rest
would do the sqdad more good than
the usual workout. The team met at
the Hotel Grand in the evening for
dinner. A light practice will be held
tomorrow in order to round the team
into the pink of condition for the two
stiff frays with the Michigan Aggies.
While the Cornhuskers are not given
to boasting, it is their earnest belief
that the Aggies will depart from Lin
coin the victims of two defeats by
the Nebraska team.
Freshmen to Play Armstrongs
As a preliminary game on Saturday
night the Freshmen five will clash
with the strong Armstrong Clothing
Co. team. The Armstrong five is now
leading in the City League and re
cently defeated both Doane and Wes
leyan colleges, leaders in the state
inter-colleglate race. According to
this dope, the Yearlings are in for a
licking. The coal shortage, influenza
epidemic and various other circum
stances have prevented the first year
men from holding regular practices
and consequently the men have not
played together enough to develop
any clever team work. Some promis
ing material is evident in the Fresh
men squad, however, and the Arm
strong team will not have every thing
its own way. The Frosh lineup will
no doubt be selected from the follow
ing men: Hartley. Munger. Cole,
Hauser. Carmen, Gardiner, Balleau.
Dobesh, Corr and Fitzslmmons. Two
of the intramural teams will stage
the curtain raiser on Friday night.
