SHORT CUTS NOT EASY IN REGISTRATION LINE THIS YEAR Dodging through the short cuts in the registration line was not as easy this year, as it has been in past years. In years gone by, the one who knew the ropes could get through in a few minutes, pay his fees, and be regist ered. But the old times have gone. No more can the hand shaker get through. It takes even a pass to get into the Armory after one gets through the toils over in Social Science Hall. Rut it is possible to beat the game over in the Social Science building. A few wise and enterprising students yesterday secured some blank appli cation forms, use their own typewrit er to fill them out, coaxed their ad visor to sign the slips, and then se cured the dean's signature to the forms without even entering the Social Science hall. The Plot Thickens. Thought the boys; so far, so good. We'll beat this game, after all. But they did not. Not even though their line of friends at the exits could they get into the armory to reach the as signment committee. Even trying to rush the line at the east entrance availed them naught. Passes from the registrar for immediate attention gave them no help. All they had to do was to wait in line and hope. Wait they did. That for two hours. The hour was ap proaching near the time when the dors were to be closed, and one of the fellows was getting worried. His time card was Saturday afternoon, and he was registering on Thursday. He suc cessfully passed three barriers before he reached the last door. A cautious glance around the corner revealed a friend in need. And also the i was inside the building. A long line of undergraduates wait ing for first checker confronted him Our friend did not want to go through this line. He saw that the line of sen iors left the senior table one at a time, and passed by the first checker with no trouble. So our friend boldly walked over to the senior table, and from there over to the checker. He was passed. He slammed his application down before the line marked N to Z, and said "Let's go." He went. Game Easy To Beat. Instead of waiting in the long line wending its way to the assignment committee, this fellow walked on. A friend was assignment checker. So that ways was easy. The nexc thing was to pay the fees. That is always easy, be cause fhe university always wants to hold up on that end of the line. But it all goes to say that the game is easy to beat, and what was perhaps year will be beaten next year, and those who are wise will not wait in the line. So goes it all.

Leading Schools of United States and Canada Will Have Representa ives at Conference in Minn eapolis. - REPORTERS WANTED The Daily Nebraskan wants reporters. Apply to the Man aging Editor, The Nebraskan, Room 206, "U" Hall. The mixer and movie, staged by the university Y. M. C. A. last night, proved itself a success. A gofcd as semblage of freshmen were present to iew the exhibit. The feature attraction of the evening was the moving pictures, secured from Dr. Condra, which included the fresh man-sophomore Olympics last fall, the Nebraska-Rutgers football game at tho New York polo grounds, and the Ne braska-Michigan Aggie game on the home field. Views of last year's fresh man class were also shown. The mixer is held each year to ac quaint the incoming freshmen with the ideals and traditions of the school. The pictures which were shown pict ured the lastlyear' f'rst year men' and showed the traditional big days of a university year. ."Bill" Day, gen eral secretary of the University - "i C. A., was present to help get the new men acquainted and to make them feel at home. The attendance at the College Agriculture will not be reduced much relatively as will the attendance at other colleges of the University, because that a very large percentage of Agricultural students earn their way thru school, and are not so deep ly affected by the present depression ''n financial circles, and in addition are men determined to go thru school n spite of all obstacles. A fairly large number of freshmen have already registered, and more are registering as fast as they can be taken care of. The upper classmen are coming in rapidly, and a very largo percentage of last year's men are al ready registered. The outlook for a great deal of activity on the suburban campus is indeed very good this fall. Two students from the Virginia State College are registered for grad uate work in Agricultural College 1'iis semester. They report that they thoro- ly investigated the Engineering depart ments or nearly all colleges of the United States, and found that the Uni versity of Nebraska had the best fa cilities for this wrk. Try-outs have started for the Dairy Judging team of th College of Agri culture, and Professor Thompson, (Continued on Page Four.) F ASSOCIATION PROGRAM. Friday, Sept. 16.

STUDENT Din CARDS SAVE TIME Information Cards May be Secured at Entrance to Armory or From Committee of 200. Directory cards are being filled out by students this year during the pro cess of registration in order that the compiling of the University Directory may be hastened. The system was adopted to save the delay which would je necessary in looking over the unl versity records to get the information which is desired. U is extremely important that tha students fill out these cards as they register in order that there may be no mistakes in the book. Just inside the entrance to the Armory the committee holds sway and cards are handed out to the students as they enter. These are taken up as soon as they are fill ed out. Due to the congestion at the door at certain hours of the day it nas beeii found impossible to see that all students fill these out. It is imperat ive, therefore, that all students that have not filled out these cards by tho time they complete their registration, do so at once. If the committee cannot be located in the armory, cards may be obtained from a member of th9 Committee of Two Hundred. Y. M, C. A. EMPLOYMENT t BUREAU LISTING JOBS The University Y. M. C.

HUSKERS TAKE T Willi Thirty Candidate Answer Official Call of Coach Dawson for Regular Practice. SWANSON COACHES BACKS Signal Practice at State Farm Held Un til Downtown Field Is Ready For Use. Tho alhlotic ticket sale has reached t lie eiht hundred mark. When tho resist rati n mill closed for tho day, Thursday evening, Voil T. ( 'haddcrton. a pent of student activities, announced that the student committee had sold oipht hundred of coupon hooks during the two days of registration. This number exceeded the previous expectations of those in charge of tho campaign. With the two heavy days of registration remaining the strategic managers feel confident that the now plan is a success. A larpe number of students who passed up the opportunity to purchase the books Wednesday returned yesterday to deposit the first payment of $2.50. The fact that no season tickets for individual athletic seasons will' be placed on sale was one reason for the chan.iref heart on the 1 p:rt of seme students. Tho fact is that students who to obtain one of Ihe coveted books which admits them to all contests will find that Avhen they desire to see the ITuskers in action they will have to pay the loner price pen eral admission charge. Many slndents workim.' their way through eollepe jumped at the opportunity to purchase the season pasteboards. "It now makes it possible for us follows to take in all the pames," said one of this proup. "I figured up the sum I spent for athletic con tests last year and found that the amount surpassed that asked for the season tax. I can see ..all the contests at less cost than that paid out for the several I witnessed last season." University of Xehraska sched dules this season contain a larpe number of home pames. a number more than next year. Under the new extension policy of the ath letic department the institution is branch inp out into new sports and when the curtain rinps down on the 1021-22 school year chances are excellent that the number of contests to which the student ticket will admit will have pass ed the thirty mark by a consid erable marpin. Thursday the University co-ed was one of the main ticket pur chasers. A number who passed up the opportunity Wednesday per haps did not fully understand the value of the barpain offered. At fitly rate a proup of considerable size returned to purchase the season pasteboards. The drive for sales will contin ue today and Friday, Glen Mun- srer and Mary Sheldon have charpe of the drive today. Georpe Sims and Emma Cross will direct the Saturday campaipn. After fes for repistration have been paid the students pass an athletic booth where the cou pon boks are on sale. About the booth are to be found a number of the trophies won by the varsi ty on athletic fields. Two hundred additional names of those who have purchased coupon books and enrolled themselves as Loy al Cornhuskers: George Read J. Miller Margaret Wattles Gertrude Harte Frank L. Brown William M.

Thirty men answered the of ficial call yesterday for the first repular practice of the season. Coach Dawson spent most of the afternoon in., pivinp the men sip nal practice. The backfield men were in charpe of Captain Swan son witli the forward wall work inp under Coach Dawson. "Bill" Day and Farley Younp, this year's Freshmen coach took charpe of the pivot men. The preliminary workouts will be held at the State rami until the downtown ' field is in shape for the use of the men. Coach Dawson h:s a wealth of backfield material and the squad that is workinp'out for line positions look promisinp but is not as larpe as that of the backfield. Following is a list of the men who will represent the Scarlet and the Cream on the gridiron this fall: Captain Clarence Swanson, end. llowarth, quarterback. Berquist, guard. Lyman, tackle. Sorenson, halfback. Weller, guard. Pucelik, tackle. Monte Munn, guard. Scherer, end. Wright, halfback. Hoy, halfback. DeWitz, halfback. Hartman, halfback. Ross McGlasson, center. Peterson, center. Preston, halfback. Schoeppel, halfback. Nixon, tackle. Wenke, tackle. Russell, halfback. Moser, center. Thomsen, halfback. Bassett, tackle. Glempke, end. Noble, fullback. Harold McGlasson, quarterback. Lewellen, quarterback. Hartley, halfback. Moore, halfback. Coach Dawson will probably shift some of these men around thus bal ancing the line and backfield. Regular practice will be held every day until the first scheduled game of the season is played, which takes place October crib for 6S TH) 99 fee
