launching a membership drive under
the chairmanship of Faye Curry, '21.
One hundred girls whose names will
be announced later, will aid Miss
Curry In this campaign.
These girls are to meet together
tnls evening at 5 o'clock at Ellen
Smith Hall to receive instructions
and to decide on the details of the
campaign. It is planned to reach
every girl of the University either
through talks at the dormitories and
sorority houses or by personal inter
views. There is to be no fee for mem

in the previous membership drives,
but each member in Joining pledges

GAYP FIRE GROUPS TO
BE ORGANIZED BY GIRLS
Two Sections to Be Formed One for
Training Work and Other of
Social Nature.
Camp Fire groups will be organized
in the University this year for the
purpose of giving girls an opportunity
to train for . guardians work and to
bring together Camp Fire girls from
different parts of the state. A meet
ing was held Wednesday to discuss
plans for organization and to interest
girls in the work. Ruth McKenney,
a former member of the University
Wrolohi Camp Fire, was in charge of
the meeting.
Two groupB will be formed ir
enough girls signify their interest
One will be a Guardian's training
class which will meet one? a week.
There is a demand among University
girls for such a class because often
when they go home or to teach school
they are called on to lead Camp Fire
groups of younger girls. The work
will be similar to that of the past
three years when Mrs. F. F. Teal
le.cd a class,' organized under the
name of the"VVololil Camp Fire. The
Camp Fire was rearded as a model
group. As well as learning how to
carry on the work the girls did prac
tical Camp Fire work and held cere
monial meetings at which ranks were
awarded.
The second group wiil be more of a
social group. There are a large num
ber of girls In the University who
have at one time been actively asso
ciated with the Wolohi Camp Fire or
who have been Camp Fire guardians
in their home towns. For tnese girls
who can not enter the guardian's
training class the social organization
is planned which will meet less fre
quently but will keep the girls in
touch with Camp Fire.
Any girl in the University, whether
or not she has had any Camp Fire
experience, is invited to Join one of
the groups. A meeting will be held
Monday afternoon at 4 o'clock to
perfect plans of organization. Those
who can not attend this meeting but
who wish to take up the work are
asked to give their names and ad
dresses to Ruth McKenney. The
year's program and group leaders
will be announced later.

All Language Students

as a library and study room for mod
ern language and English students

lieve the congested condition of the
main library and also to furnish a
light, airy, comfortable room for stu
dents in the English and language de
partments. The room is equipped with good
chairs and tables; it has the refer
ence library for modern and classical
languages, several new dictionaries
and lexicons and English reference
books. Two private rooms for gradu
ate students of language are provided.
The classical reference library being
there furnishes a welcome for the stu
dents of classical languages as well.
The light and air are good and help
to make a pleasant study room. Mrs.
Nellie B. Pickup la the library assist
ant in charge and will be glad to be
of service to the students. The hours
are from 9 to 12 and 1 to 6 dally
except Saturday when they are from

not merely the child in the class
room," Miss Clara Wilson, head of
the kindergarten department declares.
"That is why we Intersperse the ex

For Only An Hour's Credit
"What an easy way to get a credit,"
remarked an interested onlooker as
he passed a class of Freshman co-eds
learning to twirl Indian clubs. Per

their disinterested faces as they
listened to the directions of the In

mass of hot humanity in the small
crowded locker rooms, each interested
only in finding her locker, and elbow
ing her way into her gym clothes.
One Freshman girl had no trouble in
opening her locker, for it was not

OMAHA CLUB TO HOLD
FIRST MEETING OF YEAR
Students from Metropolis to Gather
in Social Science Auditorium
Tuesday Night.
The Omaha Club will hold a meet
ing Tuesday night, October 26, in the
Social Science Auditorium to organize
their work for the year. The meet
ing has been called by Jesse Patty,
president of. the organization.
The club was organized early in
the spring this year to bring about a
closer relationship between active
students in the University and Omaha
alumni. The students were active in
providing entertainment for visitors
attending the High School track meet
held here in the spring, and took
care of the old grads who attended
the commencement week festivities.
Last year there were over 200 mem
bers in the club and it is hoped
that, with the large number of Fresh
men entering the school fro.n Omaha
this semester, the club membership
will reach 300.
The officers elected last year will
retain their positions until next
spring, when officers for the follow
ing year will be elected. The active
officers are as follows: Jesse Patty,
president; Dorothy Hippie, vice-president;
Ray Stryker, secretary; and
Harry Latowsky, treasurer.
Mary Baker Elected
to Advisory Board
Mary Baker, '21, was elected a
member of the Senior Advisory Board
at the meeting of that body Thurs
day night. Miss Baker will fill the
vacancy caused by Grace Lufkin, ex
'21. who did not return to school this
fall. The newly elected member is
one of the prominent Seniors on the
campus. Besides being a competent
Y. W. C. A. worker and one of the
thirty captains on the Committee of
Two Hundred, she has done much for
individual girls in school.
only the co-ed herself can realize how
well-earned is that compulsory credit.
To her it seems a waste of time and
she thinks of the unprepared French
lesson. Her arms become limp,, a fly
tickles her nose, but she dares not
knock it away lest she lose her credit
for the year, and still the instructor
snaps forth the hated directions. She
thinks with envy of her roommate
w"no, "Lucky one," secured a reprieve.
"How did she get it," she murmurs
and at the same time almost hates
herself for being so healthy. To her
gym is the cause of all evils. No
wonder she is late to her next class.
And of course It Is the alleged cause
of all colds.
But suddenly she forgets her un
pleasant thoughts, her pout becomes
a smile, she hears the ever welcome
words, "Class dismissed."

SOUTH
DAKOTA
BY BRIPIT OFFENSIVE PLAY
Statistics of the Nebraska
South Dakota game follows:
Yards gained from line of
scrimmage Nebraska, 296;
South Dakota, 88.
First downs Nebraska, 11;
South Dakota, 2.
Punts Nebraska 11 for 388
yards, average 36 yards; South
Dakota 15 for 578 yards, aver,
age 38 yards.
Penalties Nebraska, 6 for 50
yards; South Dakota, 3 for 9
yards.
Passes completed Nebraska,
1 for 17 yards; South Dakota,
1 for 2 yards.
Passes incomplete Nebraska,
5; South Dakota, 3.
Passes intercepted Dubai.
Drop kicks attempted Ne
braska, Dana, 2.
Nebraska's Cornhuskere proved
their ability as football ar'.itts Satur
day by taking the South Dakota ag
gregatlon into camp to the tune of 20
to 0. This makes the third shutout
of the season for Nebraska.
The advantage in weight that Ne
braska had over the Coyotes was one
of the main factors in the victory.
Coach Schulte's warriors had all the
"breaks" in the game as fv as luck
was concerned. The Coyotots had lots
of fight but could not withstand the
rushes of the heavy Nebraska for
wards and backs.
The first half of the game; was not
much better than the average high
school team puts on and was very
disappointing to the followers of the
Huskers. Most of the flvei half was
taken up in a punting duel between
iue two teams with honors about
even. Nebraska seemed to be in a
trance and unable to come out of it.
The Huskers failed to niake first
downs many times in this period of
the game but woke up later on.
Neither team seemed capable of hang
ing onto the ball and fumbles were
frequent on both sides.
South Dakota kicked off to Ne
braska the second half and Nebraska
began to display some real football
ability. The Huskers were able to
make first downs without much diffi
culty at this stage of the game.
