Will Dedicate Stadium.
Kansas University will dedicate its
new memorial stadium on the morning
of the game. The special will arrive
in time for the Nebraskans to attend
the ceremony. A letter received by
John K. Selleck, agent for student ac
tivities, from the director of athletics
at Kansas University, says in part:
"We are expecting to dedicate the
stadium on Uie morning of the 11th.
We would be pleased indeed, if the
Nebraska contingent could be present
for these exercises ou the morning of
Armistice Day. The plans of dedica
tion have not all been worked out, but
we are planning ou having the Ameri
can Legion take charge of the service
as this is a memorial dedication to our
hi ro dead of Kansas, who fought iu
the world war."
The Jay Hawkers have a formid
able gridiron machine. Its only de
feat was suffered in the first game
of the season when with only two
weeks of practice it held the Army to
a 7-0 score. The Husker-Jay Hawk
contest on Armistice Day may decide
the .Missouri Valley championship.
Only Chance to Take Trip.
This is the only chance that Ne
braska students will have to take a
trip with the team. The other trips,
to Syracuse and Oklahoma are too
long to permit an accompanying body
of students.
It is probable that a football rally
will be held the night before the team
goes to Lawrence.
In eastern schools the number of
students making trips with the team
is large. Indiana University sent 200
sudents and a 100-piece band to Wis
consin last Saturday for the Wisconsin-Indian
agame. Six hundred Michi
gan students invaded Columbus last
Saturday to see the Michigan-Ohio
State contest. Two special trains, one
of nine cars and the other of eleven,
made the trip from Ann Arbor to Co
lumbus. Corncobs!
There will be a meeting of the
Corncobs at 7 o'clock at the Kappa

Entire Student Body Invited to
Song-Fest Sponsored by
the Ksmet Klub.
The entire student body is invited
to the Kostnet Klub inter-fraternity
sing to be held Friday evening at 7:15
ut the Armory. The committee from
Kosmet Klub, in charge of the sing
is planning to make this third sing
bigger anil more popular than either
of the two held last year.
Three judges, to be announced later,
have been chosen to select the frater
nity which presents its two songs most
effectively and successfully. The win
ning fraternity will be announced on
Sunday. The number of men present,
(lie harmony, the volume and the clev
erness of presentation will be consid
ered by the judges In their decision.
Every fraternity on the campus is ex
pected to be at the sing which will be
completed in time for the fraternity
men and the spectators to have regu
lar Friday evening engagements.
The first inter-fraternity was held
under the auspices of Kosmet Klub
just about a year ago on the Athletic
Field. A large crowd of University
men and co-eds gathered outside the
fence to hoar the fraternity songs as
will as tho Nebraska songs whicli
wen sung. The second sing was con
duced after tho tapping of the Inno
cents and Mortarboards at Antelope
Park on hist Ivy Day in connec'lov
with the Cornhtisker Roondup week.
The purpose of the sings as an
nounced by the committee in charge
is not only to promote a spirit of
good feeling among the fraternities
but to serve as a "pep" meeting for
the llusker team which will play the
Oklahoma Sooners on the next after
noon at Norman, Oklahoma.
Present plans call for the seating
of the men in fraternity groups in the
Chapel, while the spectators will be
in the balcony seats. As each fater
nity is called upon to sing two of its
songs, the group will come to the
front. Tho University quartet, and
the Northwall and Ragadore Jazz or
chestras will be there to liven up the
occasion. " Fraternities wishing to

scribed in the Drive Con
ducted Few Years Ago.
Solicitation for the Stadium among
the University faculty will be com
pleted at 5 o'clock Thursday after
noon, according to plans of the com
mit lee.
A fact that has been overlooked by
the "student-body, ami which was not
announced at the big Stadium rally
at the auditorium, is that the faculty
subscribed about $19,000 to the Sla
ilium fund in the drive two years
ago.
Most of the faculty made pledges
at that time. Others have been mak
ing payments since then, so a large
part of the faculty pledges were paid
even before the student drive began.
Instead of a chairman for the drive
among the faculty, the solicitation is
centered in the hands of a general
committee, with one member for prac
tically each building on the campus.
