Never before has a follower of the

The well-meant taunts, the good

STUDENTS OF "BIZAD"
COLLEGE HAVE BIG DAY
CJelebraticn Starts With Parads
and Winds Up With Victory
Over Ag Team
From early morning till late night
the students of the College of Busi
ness administration celebrated on Fri
day. Starting "their" day with a big
parade in the morning, the "Bizads"
conducted a brilliant celebration.
Twelve Lincoln business lioness
formed a nucleus about which the
morning parade was organized. The
students marched two abreast and the
long line of "P.izads" was interspersed
with the business floats. Forming by
Social Science building, the parade
followed down Twelfth street to P.
down P to Tenth, on Tenth to O, and
out O to Seventeenth and Antelope
Park. During the entire parade, the
"Bizads" announced their coming by
blowing long and furiously upon horns
and whistles supplied them by the
committee.
Games at Park.
Reaching the park shortly after 10
o'clock, the merry-makers fell immedi
ately into the task of enjoying them
selves until meal time. Boxing
matches, wrestling contests, inter
class tug-of-wars, baseball games, and
other amusements kept the "Bizads"
merry.
The faculty especially enjoyed it
self. A tug-of-war arranged between
faculty men and the "Bizad" girls was
the obbject of much amusement when
besides trying to pull all of the girlf
the teachers also attempted to uproot
a tree. Some "Bizad" jokers had an
chored the one end of the rope to a
stout tree.
Appetites were keen long before
Billy, the lunchman, arrived on the
scene with the noon lunch. Finally,
however, the eats arrived and a long
line of hungry "Bizads" filed past the
lunch stands. The line extended for
fully a block, and was held so tight
that transients were not allowed to
pass back and forth.
A hugh bonfire furnished the set
ting about which the hungry students
and faculty members ate. An eight-
piece orchestra furnished occasional
music for the repast, and some lew
men who were lucky enough to grab
off one of the few girls enjoyed a lit
tle public dance.
Immediately following the meal, a
group of students started soliciting
subscriptions for "The Bizad,"the new
monthly publication for the college.
Captain Dean Le Rosslgnol's pre
liminary prediction that the seniors
would have a tough battle to carry off

CLINCH VALLEY PENNANT
Serial Attack cf Agpies Ecsl Seen
cn Nebraska Field in Num
ber of Years
Nebraska practically cinched tha
Missouri Valley Grid championship
yesterday when the Cornhusker team
came out of the battle with the Kan
sas Aggies on the long end of a 21 to
0 score. The Aggies put up a gama
fight, but the superior weight of tha
Huskers and the breaks of the game
favored the Huskers. Features ol
the contest were the line plunging ol
the Huskers, and the uncanny for
ward passing of the Aggies, who
completed more than twenty-five
passes.
Nebraska started the fray with
practically the whole second team in
the lineup, but the Farmers smashed
and passed their way down to the
Husker 20-yard line, and Dawson im
mediately began sending in the reg
ulars. Shortly before the end of the
first quarter, Nebraska got possession
of the ball, and on the first play
Noble broke through the line foi
forty yards. The Husker steamrollei
jumped into motion during the second
quarter, and before the first half was
over, Lewellen went over for a touch
down, following a series of line
plunges by Dewitz. Hartley and Lew
e'.Icn.
Nebraska scored her second touch
down in the third quarter when Lew
cllen intercepted a pass and ran 2U
iyards to a touchdown. Hartley
smashed through for the third touch
down early in the fourth period.
For the Nebraska eleven. Captain
Hartley, Lewellen and Noble starred,
while Russell, taking Preston's place
at quarter, piloted the team in a crcl
itable fashion, besides making a won
derful drop-kick from the forty-yard
line in the first period, which hit
the ponl-post. Stars on the Aggio
team were Stark, left half. Captain
Hahn. center, and Webber, left end
The forward passing of the Jay
hawk Farmers was the best ever seen
here, the Kansans completing pass
after pass for consistent gains. The
Farmer crew was exceptionally well
coached, and the statistics on the
frame slightly favored the Ags. as
they made more yardage than tha
Cornhuskers.
First Quarter.
Captain Hartley of Nebraska won
the to:;s and chose the east goal
Wenke kicked off forty yards and
Brandley returned four yards to the
Aggie 24-yard line. The Aegies then
fiiiiinled on the first play and Ne
braska recovered the ball, hut the
Cornhuskers were offs:d' and wew
penalized five yards. Thr Ag-M3 ro
tailed tlie ball.
On the first pliy Brandley ran Ne
braska's end for nine yards. The bail
was called back and another p- nalty
of five yards inflicted on Nebraska
for offside.
Clements hit the line for six yards.
Brandley fumbled and was thrown
for an 8-yard loss.
Brandley threw a forward pass to
Munn that was good for thirteen
yards. Clements drove over Nebras
ka's left tackle for two yards. Clem
cnts followed It with another plunge
that netted five yards. Clements fol
lowed it with a drive through center
that added four yards and a first
down. The ball is in midfield. '
Clements again carried the ball
smashing through the Nebraska line
for five yards. A forward pass Clem
ents to Stark was good for seven
yards and a first down.
Stark fumbled, Nebraska touched
the ball and the Aggies recovered tha
ball on Nebraska's 2S-yard line. A
forward pass Stark to Munn was In
com plete.
Another forward pass, Stark to
Webe was incomplete. Stark threw
a forward pass to Brandley which
was good for four yards. On the next
play, Clements forward passed to
Nebraska's goal line for a.touchback.
Nebraska scrimmaged from the 20
yard line.
On the-first play Noble ran around
the Aggies left end for forty-nine
yards to the Aggies' 39-yard line.
