GOYOTES EXPECT TO
Wfsleyan Coach Will Not Prdict
But Promises Scarlet and
Cream a Real Battle
BUSKER CLAN IS HEAVIER
Nebraska Will Use Three Elevens
In First Scheduled Contest
Of Season Saturday
Conch McCandlesa of the Wesley an
aggregation is making no predictions
on the outcome of the Husker-Metho-dlst
battle Saturday but in an inter
view yesterday afternoon promised
to -inprise the Scarlet and Cream
pei formers.' Nebraska has not met
U Wesleyan eleven since 1916 when
tlie Cornhuskers snowed the Uni
versity Place athletes under by a 21 to
0 count.
With a bis squad out for Varsity
positions, Coach McCandless is hav
ing trouble in picking a first stiing
eleven. Most of last year's letter
men who are eligible for Varsity work
have returned and have donned the
moleskins. The kicking job prob
; bly rest on the shoulders of Kahm
last year's star booter. Kahm regis
tered a beautiful field goal in a post
season contest against Grand Island
hero last fall but the kick was not
allowed.
The Huskers will outweigh the Wes
leyan men by a large number of
pounds to the man and Coach Daw
son does not expect much trouble In
slopping a line plunging attack with
his Husky forward wall. Nebraska
will probably rally to straight foot
ball throughout the entire contest.
The C'ornhusker mentor will prob
ably use three elevens in Saturday's
contest. Wesleyan will probably use
an aerial attack and try for points
by the field route whenever in scoring
distance.
Coach Dawson, with his assistants.
Frank and Day put the Scarlet and
Cream warriors through a stiff work
out last night consisting of prelimin
ary work and dummy tackling. Fol
lowing this two elevens battled each
other in a thirty minute scrimmage
pniod. Saturday's game should give
followers of the Husker clan some
idea of the strength of the 1921
machine.

GREEN CUP SUPPLY
Some So Axnious That They Get In
On Second Issue To Make
Check on Men
Magee's announces that the Fresh
man cap supply has vanished ani
that the firm is forced to send an
other hurry call for more green lids.
The freshmen have come to Ne
braska in larger numbers than was at
fust believed possible and now the
"ompany is short a goodly number of
green top pieces for the first year
students.
One factor which conies to light in
ne giving away of the yearling
ky pieces that shows some lack of
'he proper spirit among the few year
'ings who have committed the atroc
ly. This is the duplication of names
that appears on the Magoe register.
" u-.leiit and university honor with
onie touch of pride in the class
should prevent th Freshmen from
making any such breaks as have been
rcrpetraled this week.
Magee's will have no more caps for
several days. They have ordered
ii!-'t enough to go around the remaind
er of the Capless Frosh and will open
at a time to be announced later for
the giving away of the caps. Some
student who is well acquainted with
the members of the class will assist
in giving away the caps and in watch
ing for those who are attempting to
Mraud their brothers in taking more
than t heir share of the sky pieces.

Over three hundred agricultural
j' .iidents and faculty assembled in the
in'itoiium in Agricultural Hall for a
spirited convocation, Tuesday at 11

i n the subject. "A Greater Ag Col
lege." He urged a more thorough
knowledge of our agricultural college
in Nebraska high schools.
Coach Schulte made an interesting:
talk about athletics in which he
stressed the importance of physical
exercise to maintain one's health
vhilo in school. He emphasized par
ticipation in track as a means by
which each individual might easily
iceuro this excrcit-e and "at the same
ine draw a constant salary of good
ieal th and a wider acquaintance with
unheisity people. He urged the girls
to lake an active interest in outdoor
exercise.
Professor Rankin gave an inspiring
ia!k on, "Relation of Community Life
to College Life." F. E. Old, of the
Extfiision Department in agriculture
a' Missouri, concluded the hour with
a peppy talk on "Pep in Ag College."
Every one left the auditorium at the
end o flhe hour filled with a greater
college spirit and feeling that he was
more in unity with his fellow stud
ents. It is. planned that such lively convo
cations be held regular'y during the
semester in order that the students
may get the "convocatioi habit" as
urged by Dean Burnett.
