Student Life Section of Annual Will Fairly Reck With Scandal Bits of scandal from every corner of the campus will be aired in the Student Life Section of the 1921 Corn- husker, according to the editors of the book. This department, because or many requests, will be larger than those of any other years, and will contain twice as much University gossip. "When every Husker buys his an nual this year and he has glanced at the various articles and pictures in the first part of the book, he will Instinctively turn to the Student Life Section," said Hugh Carson, business manager of the Cornhusker. Experi ence of other years has proved that this section is not only read once, but repeatedly, after everything else has been finished. The reason for this appears to be the fact that all ordinary mortals seem to delight in laughing at certain predicaments in which their particular friends have played a prominent part. Twice as Many Pages. In order to give everyone the proper amount of space to display his brilliancy or lack of brilliancy, as the case may-be the Scandal Section will contain twice as many pages. It is not merely the humor of the situa: tion, however, that will be shown. The Student Life department will be a veritable "Book of Knowledge." '"What Even Student Ought to Know" T Junior Aggregation Defeated in Final Match by Narrow Margin of One Goal. Battle Closely Contested Throughout Ruth McKenney and Martha Krogmann Star. With a lone goal to their credit. the Senior girls' soccer team won the championship in the inter-class tourna ment by defeating the Junior aggre gation in the final game 'Thursday morning on the Athletic field. The margin between the two team? is no greater than the one point difference in score indicates. The two evenly matched teams played one of the best soccer games ever seen on the Nebraska field. Until the final whistle blew the outcome of the game was in doubt. The one Senior score was made in the first quarter. Several times after that They tried to carry Qe ball through the Junior goal posts for an other score bujt were effectually held by the third-year players. It seemed almost inevitable that the Juniors would send the ball through the Senior goal posts but each time the play was blocked by their opponents. Individual Stars. Ruth McKenney, stellar Senior player, and Martha Krogmann, goal keeper, were the mainstays of the winning team. (Continued on Page Four) NEWS OF Harding May Visit Mexico.

League Criticized for Secret Session. GENEVA, Nov. 19. The newspaper. La Suisse, publis'ted a report here that a canvas of the delegates at the League fc-f Nations assembly shows that all neutrals except Spain prob ably would support the admission of Germany. There was severe criticism GHAMPI0HSH1P has been suggested aa a proper name for these pages of gossip. Pictures varied and illuminating will illustrate many of the findings of the sleuths who are already on the trail of slander and scandal. The necessary formality of the Board of Censorship will be, of course, one or the assets of the Cornhusker. This board is to be liberal and adjustable. It is its elasticity, according to those who know, that makes it of so much value. Students will not find that their own section has beeu hampered by the presence of this criticism. The section will give students the opportunity to see themselves as they really are and as others see them. The co-ed who has unknowingly erred or departed from the straight and narrow path of the student so to speak will find herself pictured "au natural." The bold and dashing Uni versity Apollo will appear minus his perfect role and his over-powering air. "No discrimination will be shown and no mercy spared," declared the editor of the student page yesterday. It is the wish that the section have a truthful and accurate cacount in picture, rhyme, and song of the life of the student on the campus, in the classroom, and in that particular sport conducive to the utterance of sweet nothings. "Wait and see," is the only hint we have of the real contents of the gossip paragraphs. mm All-University Turkey Day Celebration Set for November 20 in Armory.

The practice was held behind closed gates and every effort was exerted to de velop a class or teamwork which win entirely baffle the Michigan Aggies on next Saturday.

That Clark's men have come along with remarkable speed was evidenced last Saturday when they literally buried Chicago Physical Training College under an SI to 0 score, this in spite of the fact that two full teams and many addi tional substitutions were used hy the Aggies during the game.

After dropping a hard fought battle to Wisconsin, oonquerors or the championship Illinois team last Saturday, and losing the following week to the University of Micfligan, the East Lansing squad apparently struck Its stride and has been riding rough-shod over all competition since. When the big green squad smeared Olivet College. 109 to 0. on October 30, the dopsters thought that weak ness on Olivet's part might be re sponsible for the score; but with the drubbing given the Chicago training school team, which had been enjoy ing a winner season, it became ap parent that "Potsy" Clark had really developed a formidable offensive. Aggie Line Baffled Badgers. Defensive power was shown early in the season.
