Scarlet and Cream Squad in Excellent
Shape Schulte Praises Rutgers
Clan and Expects Hard Battle.
Nebraska's warriors wake their
debut into eastern football cycles
this afternoon when they mis with
,;,P fast Rutgers team at the Polo
rounds in New York City.
The game promises to be one of
the hardest fought contests seen in
me east this year on account of the
fn- that an eastern team does not
like :o bow to a western team. Today
is a holiday in New York and one of
the largest crowds that ever attended
a football game is expected to throng
the Giants' home.
The Cornhuskers are in good con
dition after their four days trip and
are ready to give Rutgers one of the
hardest battles that school has had
this year. Nebraska has suffered
only one defeat so far this year and
that was at the hands of the for
midable Notre Dame team. All of
the men are anxious to keep up the
good work and are going to fight all
the harder to keep from being de
feated. Rutgers have been defeated
in a number of games this year but
all of their defeats have been by
some of the foremost teams in the
east. Coach Sanford of the Rutgers
crew is noted for the "fighting spirit"
his teams have displayed in their
former games and he has promised
the followers of the Rutgers clan that
Nebraska will have to fight for every
inch of grouniTthe Huskers gain in
the battle.
Schulte Not Confident.
The Cornhuskers were met in
Niagara Falls by Coach Schulte who
saw the Rutgers-Cornell game Satur
day. Tie has been giving the squad
the dope on the New Yorkers. Final
instructions were given the men yes
terday. Coarh Schulte does not seem
confident of winning the game but
intends to give the easterners a real
battle. Thf following report has been
received from Niagara Falls and will
rive the loyal followers of the Corn
huslcrs some idea of how things
stand with the team.

Features of Program at Chamber
cf Commerce.
Hundreds of alumni and ex-students
of the University will revel at the
Lincoln Chamber of Commerce to
night at 6 o'clock, when their annual
get-together banquet is planned. Th?
entertainment will depart from the
more staid and dignified alumni ban
quets cf the -past. The commitft-e
has promised that the only serious
part of the evening will be the elec
tion returns and that thei will not
be serious to everybody. The go
even so far as to prophesy that Ne
braska will win the Ruigers game.
The plot of the evening is laid
about the presidential candidates who
will each tell in a talk not to exceed
ten minutes just how they happened
to be elected. The candidates have
all accepted at least men who look
like future presidents have accepted.
The guests will be divided equally
into the various national political
parties in order to Insure vociferous
applause.
"Yearly Shock to Appear."
Another feature of the evening will
be the appearance or the first yearly
newspaper known as "The Yearly
Shock." It will be filled with ridicu
lous personalities regarding the great
:,nd rear-great among the alumni and
former student! at the University.
Any reader who finds a word of trut h
in the newspaper will be awarded a
prize. The board of editors has al
ready left town, it is reported, in
order to escape assault and suits for
s'aider and libel. Songs, stunts,
football and election returns, along
with Nebraska yells, will reign until
o'clock, alter which th rcti or the
evening will be spent in dancing.
It- nervations for places at the feast
n-,y still be made by telephoning

SGOn RE-ELECTED AS
CHAIRMAN OF GREEKS
Inter-Fraternity Council Again Bans
Flowers at Formats and Limits
Party Expenditures.
Prof. R. D. Scott was re-elected
chairman, and Ward Rar.dol, '22, was
elected secretary, at a meeting of the
Inter-Fraternity Council which was
held Sunday afternoon. Problems
hich are now facias frtt jrnities si
Nebraska were discussed, many of
which were deferred until a later
meeling.
It was decided that the rule regu
lating the amount of money which
fraternities may spend upon their
formal and representative parties be
re-enacfed and enforced during this
school year. Two hundred fifty dol
lars may be expended for formal
parties and one hundred fifty dollars
for representative parties. The chair
man was granted authority to appoint
a committee to investigate and report
the expenditure of fraternity parties.
The sending of flowers by fiaternity
men to co-eds for formal parties will
again be prohibited. The rule passed
last year in regard to transfer mem
bers from other schools applying to
initiation was abrogated. Transfers
who have the required number of
hours may be initiated at the dis
cretion of the fraternity to which they
are pledged.
Will Appoint Publicity Committee.
Chairman Scott was also authorized
to appoint a pubhci'y committee.
Those who will be chosen to serve
will be announced at a later date.
With reference to initiation, the
Council wishes to call attention to
the rules which were passed last year.

PLURALITY
BALLOTS IN
received seven votes. Chrisu-nsen, of
the farmer labor party, and Watkins.
the prohibition candidate, received no
votes.
The total number of votes cast was
339. One ballot was declared void be
cause the voter placed an X after the
names of both Harding and Christen
sen. The straw vote was open to
only those students who are sub
scribers to the Daily Nebraskan.
Members of the staff of the paper
were on hand in Station A all day to
check subscribers' names off the lists
and to aid students in casting their
bai.ots.
The small number of votes cast can
not be considered as a true represen
tative indication of Nebraska opinion
on the campaign. However, enough
ballots were marked to afford a fair
ly accurate barometric test of the
students' views.
Harding received slightly over 60
per cent of the total number of votes
cast. Cox received something over
39 per cent of the total, and Debs
three-hundredths of 1 per cent.
Results in Other Schools.
In the inter-collegia'e straw vote
in which a large number of eastern
schools participated, the republican
nominee lead by a substantial margin.
Every one of the eighteen participat
ing colleges gave Harding large plur
