cial stadium committee election will
give, it will be a day long to be re
membered.
Tho Daily Nebraska anounces that
it will Drint the platforms, slogans and
pictures of the candidates. All who
expect to enter the political ring next

oallotlng will be to choose the five In
each college best fitted to conduct the
big campaign for funds for Nebraska's

The plan of having no persons noml-
.oinj hofnm election dav makes it
