UNIVERSITY OF
Second Payments on Stadium
Pledges Come Due Wednesday
Just four days after Nebraska dedicates its new Memorial
Stadium on homecoming day, the second installment of the pledges
made by students, faculty, alumni, and friends of the University
falls due. On October 24, the second one-fifth of the amount pledged
by each "Stadium Builder" is payable at the office of the Nebraska
Memorial Association, 106 Law building.
Nebraska's Memorial Stadium is being finished only, so far
as the money now available allows. The $450,000 in pledges which
have already been made will be enough to finish both the east and
the west stands; but, the oval ends, the beautiful colonades, must
go unfinished for the present.
Early payment of stadium pledges in full, and particularly the
amounts due at the various times, will help materially in the realiza
tion of the completed stadium witin another year. Every cent the
memorial association collects now will help toward the final goal,
for every cent collected will save the association money in interest
which it mutt pay on the thousands of dollars it borrows to meet
its obligations.
Nebraska students should pay their second installments at
once. It takes a large amount of money to send out statements to
some 4,500 students, and much money can be saved by students
making their payments at the time they are due, and whenever pos
sibl paying the entire pledge.
PAY THE SECOND INSTALLMENT ON YOUR
STADIUM PLEDGE TODAY.

The 1923 homecoming with the

ated, it is sure to lend ipirit to the
occasion.
A iude-ine committee consisting of
gome of the best window decorators
in the city and Ernie Long wil pick

petitive idea for house decorations is
a -new one at Nebraska but tne inno
cents hope to make it a permanent
ore.
The Kansas delegation of rooters
will arrive early Saturday morning
and they wil be looking for the vari
ous decorated houses over the
camDu . If it is possible to decorate
ometine today, all organizations are
urged to do so.
There is no limit as to what an or
ganization may spend in the way of
WoMtion but the committee does
not expect to award the skin to the
most gorgeously decorated nouse
but to the house with the cleverest
idea in regard to the spirit of home

Sargent Appoint Committees;

Dues to National Society to
Receive Blue Print.
Plans for a smoker and member
ship campaign were made at a meet
ing of the student chapter of the
American Association of Engineers
Thursday morning at 11 o'clock in
Mechanical Engl t iering 206. All
engineers were urged to be in the
stadium-dedication parade Saturday
morning.
W. S. Wbitten, secretary of the
Lincoln Chamber of Commerce, spoke
to the gathering on the value of an
engineering education m business
life. Henry Sargent, president of
A. A. E., presided and appointed the
following committees:
Membership, Judson Meier, chair
man. Posters, Unthank and Holdrege.
Smoker, Edgerton, chairman; Eck-
rot, Rathsack.
Athletics, Brown, chairman ; Cntes,
Hendrickson, Skinner.
Publicity, Bertwell, chairman.
For the Nebraska Elueprint, pub
lication of the College of Engineer
inz. James Marshall, editor, spoke
Part of each man's annual dues paid
to the A. A. E. are turned over to
the Blue Print as subscriptions. Knox
Burnett, manager, announced that a
close check would be made on the
circulation, so that an A. A. E. mem
bership would be necessary to re
ceival of a copy of the magazine.
The office of the A. A. E. will be
run in conjucton with that of the
Blue Print in the basement of Ad
ministration building this year, Henry
Sargent said. Dues may, be paid
there to members of the Blue Print
staff or to A.' A. E. officers.
No date was set for the annual
smoker. This was left to a commit
tee so that there would be no inter
ference with football rallies.
Chairmen of the departmental so
cieties were asked to see that their
groups marchd in the dedication pa
rade. Engineering problems enter largely
'nto every commercial enterprise, ac
cording to Mr. Whitten, the speaker
of the morning. Scare ly any suc
cessful business is not directed by an
engineer, and engineers are pro
vided for every phase of commercial
life, he said.
Opportunities are easily missed,
Mr. Wbitten believes. He related
how he missed one when he was a
young man. He was a railroad ticket
agent in Chicago whn a gentleman
came to the window and asked about
visiting the south Chicago steel plant.
The "boss" sent h'm with the ques
tioner who turned out to be Mr.
Schwab, then superintendent of the
home nlant of the Carnegie SteeH
company. After the trip Mr. Schwab
offered him a position as his secre
tary with a beginning salary of $60
a month. He was making $125 then.
he said, so he refused the offer.

RO COLLEGE SECTIONS
ALLOWED IN STADIUM
Will Reserve Seat for Co-ed
Only on Student Side of
Structure.
No college sections wil be reserved
in the stadium during tne iooioau
season and colleges are requeMta
. . t
not to sit in a body. The co-ed sec
tion will be the only one reserved and
it will occupy sections E and F with
the men on either side. The first
came was in the nature of an experi
ment for those in charge of seating
in the stadium, and as a result the
student section has been extended
from section J north to the end of
the stadium.
Students will enter through the
second and third doors on the east
side as the first door is to be used for
those having reserved seats in the
east stand. The ushers have been in
structed to keep all entrances clear
during the game and spectators who
do not keep their seats will be asked
to leave.
The stadium will be emptied
through the entrances and cadets will
be stationed to keep people from run
ning over the field and over the un
completed portion of the stadium. In
this way the authorities hope to pre
vent any accidents that might other
wise occur. There will be six exits
open in both the east and west
stands.
