HUSKER QUIHTET
TO MEET COYOTES
NebrM and South Dakota FIvm to
Clash at Coliseum Friday
Evening.
PREPARE FOR HARD BATTUE.
Northerner Are Unknown Factor and
May Pull Surprise on Scarlet
and Cream.
Tne next opponent for the Corn
husker basketball quintet will be the
South Dakota Coyotes. Nebraska will
meet the South Dakota team on the
Coliseum floor Friday" night. The
original schedule called tor a two game
series here but owing to a rule lim
iting the number of contests a Mis
souri Valley team my have, the eeconn
j-ame was cancelled.
The strength ot the Coyotes Is not
known on account of the fact that
South Dakota has participated in only
few contests thus far this season.
The Huskers defeated the South Da
kota eleven here this fall and Coach
Schtssler la planning to duplicate this
teat on the basketball court Friday
night. The Huskers triumphed over
the South Dakota aggregation in two
hard fought games last year In the
Armory. South Dakota Is a non-conference
school and has therefore
played only one or two games this
season.
Just what Coach Schlssler plans to
do for the Coyote game is not known
but the "pony" team will more than
likely be the main preformers ot the
evening. The Huskers will scrim
mage with thS Freshmen this even
tag and will meet the Armstrong team
of the city league tomorrow night
Both of these teams are composed
of experienced basket ball players and
they should furnish some keen com
petition for Coach Schissler's ath
letes. Squad In Fair Shape.
The squad is In pretty fair shape
after the two contests with the Grin
cell team and Coach Schlssler expects
to show the South Dakota aggrega
tion a fast game Friday evening.
Another feature of the game will be
the big dance that is scheduled direct
ly after the game. The two dances
that were held after the contests last
week proved to be very popular with
the Tniversity' students and Director
Luehring is planning on making this
affair a regular event after every
game. Negotiations are under way to
secure one of the best orchestras in
the city for the occasion.
DR. AIKEN WILL SPEAK
AT VESPERS THIS EVENING

church of this city will speak at ves

VALKYRIE LAUNCHES '
DRIVE ON GAM PUS
Junior-Senior Society to Sponsor Con
tributions for Hoover Relief
Fund This Week.
Valkyrie, Junior-Senior organization,
which recently conducted a "confer
ence on college dress," will this week
seek contributions to Herbert Hoov
er's fund for European relief, acting
under the authority ot H. J. Burkett;
county chairman. No contributions
have yet been asked on the campus
for this fund, and University students
are asked to respond with a sura at
least as large as that readily volun
teered by the students ot Lincoln high
school.
The Herbert Hoover American re
lief funds, including the European chil
dren's fund and the fund for European
students and professors, are widely
known and need no explanation. One
of the members of Valkyrie said yes
terday: "R is time an opportunity
was given for University people to sub
scribe to these funds."
A faculty auditing committee has
been asked by the members of Val
kyrie to supervise and check up their
accounts for these relief funds. It
was the wish of Valkyrie to launch
this movement last Thursday at the
conference on dress, but they were de
layed. More than 100,000 students, accord
ing to Hoover, are among the children
of European countries who need as
sistance this winter.
COLD FEET DON'T
WORRY CO-EDS HERE
Every since our "Mellen's Food
Days" we have listened with gap
lug mouths to the wonderful fair;
tales which have been told us. One
of the oldest and most reliable stories
which could be found in any of the
books and one of the most loved by
all the children is that old legend
of "Puss-in-Boots." "Puss" lived a
long, long timo ago, so the story goes,
and had var'ous and divers ad.-i
turcs too numerous now to relate.
This little story I will tell to you
today Is of the modern "Puss-in-Boots."
You may see her any siot-u..,
day, and some days not so st-wu
She is the girl who drags arounu
on her dainty feet the hideous night
mare ,of the small phild; namely
goloshes r And don't ever think for
one minute that she buckles them
up, as she was 'intended to, beraubc
she doesn't it isn't done thats an.
That would be altogether too scnsl
ble.
Any girl who has any "class" at
all must own a pair of these and
wear them on the slightest excuse.
They must be so put on. that every
one within the radius of half a block
will be unable to miss hearing the
musical click-click-click as the
buckles clash against each other. Oh,
yes, girls .everyone in the East u
wearing the mand when you are in
the West do as the Easterners do.
Otherwise yoq simply can't get by,
that's all.
