Delia Chi voted Thursday night to con
duct a contest for the high school
newsnaners. Two silver loving cups

The Nebraska Chapter of Sigma
Dolta Chi is one of the most centrally
located chapters in the United States

national convention of the fraternity
which it Is justly due it. An effort
will be made to enlist the aid of the
Chamber of Commerce to pull for a
natonal convention. Co-operation of
the alumni will be strived for.
The active chapter of the fraternity
decided at the meeting Thursday
night to put out a regular news letter
at frequent intervals to the alumni
in order to keep in touch with them.
Sigma Delta Chi is represented by a
large number of alumni in the city
and efforts will be made to keep in
more nroximate touch with them and
hold their co-operation with the active
chapter.
President Harlan Boyer preuicu
1922-1923 to be a fruitful year for
Sicma Delta Chi In view of the lu

Tho Coyote squad this week com
pleted their fourth week of intensive
practice. They look tho field on
September 4 and have been busy
every since. Allison is optimistic,
and says his men are in excellent

Just what Allison expects at Lin

Plans for the Saturday oighl mixer
of tho University hand are compleie.
A snappy concert will start off th'
program of the evening with gus! .
The concert will be brief anil danc
ing will follow immediately. Leo
Beck's orchestra will furnish the me!
ody of tho evening. Therefore the
best dance music will he provided, a -
those musicians played at Antelope
park this summer.
Tho program of the concert not
vet delinitelv decided but it will be
extremely pleasing, with brand-new
music that has never been before on
the University campus. This will be
the initial appearance of the I'niver
sity band on the concert platform this
season. Students should not miss the
opportunity to hear the band at thU
performance, say the members of the
hand. Students should come early i'.i
orifer to get seats for the concert.
Admission prices ure as follows:; of hard srrimmare and long anus.
Fifty cents singly, and seventy-five j Coach Dawson is expecte to change
cents per couple. To be sure of plenty , the Nebraska lineup frequently dur

'Mixer." Several of these sororities
are requiring
their freshmen to be j nso e()p fft to make some last mm
! ule changes in the Husker lineup be
present.
The purpose of the mixer is to raise,
funds to partly pay for the band uni
forms. If these are not paid for this
year the University will not buy them
next year. Students are urged to
show their loyalty to tho band and
university by attending Ibis mixer
and dance.
Those who do not dance should
come for the concert, and students
who are willing to learn will find this
a splendid opportunity to make their
Initial appearance8 on the polished
floor.
The program will start at 8: '5 and
the dance will start at 9, continuing
as long as possible.
The band has been making rapid
progress this season. It includes
ixty of the choicest musical talent
on the campus. Director William T
Quick and Captain Buford Gage se
lected the very bast of the candidates
that tried out for band this fall. The
past two weeks have been spent ir
working a set of entirely new num
bers. According to Captain Gage a
number of fast snappy marches have
been rehearsed and will be used at
the football game. On the campus
there has been some criticism in the
past two years playing the same old
tunes and making the same noise on
selections such as the "Old Gray
Mare," and a few others.

The dope, of course, favors the

to select the team from. The per-

Quintal, when the 'Varsity scored three touch

vantage of two weeks more practice
than the Hushers, and have already
played and von their first game.
Game Called at 2:30
The whistle will sound for the
opening l-.hknfl' promptly at 2:30.
The Nehias'.-a team will be attired
iu blue jerseys, due to the fact that
the South Dakota colors are red and

jerseys.

game, and tho Dakotans will
put up a terrific battle to .heir effort
to defeat the Cornhusker team.
Head Coach Dawson will probably
restrict this afternoon's workout to
signal drills and practices of forma
tions and shifts. The workout yes
tetday afternoon was the best that
i iuis been hold thus far, Die HusKers
I putting lots of fire in the drills, and
' showing some real stuff in the clash
'with the Freshmen. The first "Var-
i sity scored throe touchdowns against
the strong Yearling team
in about
I twenty minutes.
The Cornhusker
i defense
stantly
was working good, and con
ripped through the frosh
line for long gains.
When the Baskets trot on the field
for tomorrow's fray, they will be in
the best of physical condition. No
Husker regular is on the hospital
list, and the men have toughened
considerably as a result of two weens
aj,uj(y in a real game. Dawson may
fore the game. Every man who will
start the game Saturday has already
won his letter in football at Nebraska.
Captain Hartley picked up a
Yearling fumble soon after the open
ing of the scrimmage, Thursday, and
raced thirty yards for a touchdown.
A few minutes later Herb DeWiU
intercepted a first-year pass and raa
to their five yard line, where Noble
went over on a line plunge. The
third "Varsity touchdown was made
when Sherer caught a long pass and
ran to a touchdown. Preston kicked
goal on the try for point on eery
touchdown, making the score 214.
After the 'Varsity scored the third
touchdown, Dawson sent in the sec
ond team, which was clearly out
plaved by the Freshman, who kept
,he' pigskin near the Varsity goal,
but could not posh it over.
Following the Sonth Dakota game,
the Huskeis will rest two weeks be
fore meeting the Missouri eleven on
Homecoming day. October 21. This
contest will be one of the harden
games of the season, as the T.gert,
