THREE HUNDRED
PAYMENTS MADE
ON WEDNESDAY
Campaign to Collect Install
ments on Stadium Pledges
Goes Well.
EXPECT 3,200 TO PAY
BEFORE DRIVE ENDS
Three hundred students, met the
econd payments Wednesday on the
pledges which they made a year ago
I the Nebraska Memorial association.
Thirty-two hundred more students
,re expected to meet their install
ments before the campaign to clear
up the second payments on stadium
pledges ends next Wednesday. At
least a thousand students who made
pledges are estimated to have not
returned to school.
girting at 8 o'clock Wednesday
and continuing throughout the en
tire day, the little white house on the
Twelfth and R streets corner of the
campus has been receiving the pay
ments of the students. Throughout
the entire day a steady stream of
stadium builders have been clearing
up a part, and in many instances, all
of the obligation which they owe to
the Nebraska Memorial Association.
Over 100 Pay by Noon.
By the close of the morning run
on the little white house, 125 stu
dents had availed themselves of the
chance to pay their stadium pledge.
Less than four hours after the lit
tle house was opened Wednesday
morning more than 3 per cent of the
4,500 students, who have made
pledges, had met their second pay
ment. During the afternoon, the
rush was stronger.
The first day's payments more
than satisfied the expectations of
the memorial association. If the
, present rate keeps up throughout
the week, it is expected that only a
small percentage of the student
pledges will not have been paid on
time. Of these pledges, the greater
percentage of thm will be those made
by students who have left school
since making their pledges.
Pay in Memorial Office.
Ever since school started six
weeks ago there has been a steady
stream of students into the office of
the Nebraska Memorial Association,
106 Law building, where they have
made payments on their pledges. Not
a few have cleared up their entire
obligations, and the number of those
who have made advanced payments
on their pledges is great.
Statements of amounts due have
not been mailed to students yet. The
memorial association preferred rath
er to conduct a voluntary payment
campaign on the campus, and then
within a few weeks bill those students
who did not make their payments. In
this way much money which would
have been spent in sending out state
ments will be saved.
Students who have changed their
addresses t.ince making their pledges
are requested to notify the Memor
ial Association of their new ad
dresses. HARRIERS LEAVE FOR

BEGIN PLANS FOR
ANNUAL DAD'S DAY
Traditional Event Comes on
Day of Battle With
Notre Dame.
Preparations for "Dad's Day" now
an annual University event, are being
rapidly completed, according to
members of the committee in charge.
The date has been set for Novem
ber 10.
Last year more than 1,000 "Dads"
attended the luncheon and Kansas
Aggie game in the afternoon, and
with the new stadium and the Notre
Dame game as additional drawing
cards, it is expected that the num
ber this year will be greatly in
creased. Nebraska "dads" and Nebraska
"sons" will both cheer for the team
at the game as sections in the sta
dium have been reserved so that
they may sit together.
Tradition in Many School.
In many of the eastern schools
such a day is a time honored tradi
tion, and those who attended be
lieve that Nebraska will have a tra
dition just as strong.
In the evening a banquet in honor
of the fathers will be given, which
is one of the features of the day.
At the banquet last year every avail
able seat was taken but arrangements
are to be made this year so that
every "dad" and son may have a
place without fail.
"In view of the tremendous suc
cess , of the event last year there
is no doubt but that many more
fathers will attend this year. 'Dad's
day" has already become one of Ne
braska's traditions," declared a mem
ber of the committee.
The arrangements are in charge of
the Vikings, who suggest that stu
dents reserve now the day when
Nebraska "dads" take possession of
the campus.

PLAN RALLY AT
STATION TODAY
FOR GRID TEAM
Band and Cheer Leaders to
Head Parade Through
Business Section.
CROSS COUNTRY TEAM
LEAVES AT SAME TIME
A huge parade of students from
the Armory to the Burlington sta
tion will take place at 1 o'clock to
day to send off Nebraska's fighting
Cornhuskers and the cross country
team, who leave for Columbia to
meet the Missouri Tigers. The pa
rade is to be headed by the Univer
sity band and cheer leaders.
All students are urged to march
in the parade and not to go indi
vidually to the station. The train
leaves at 1:30 o'clock for Omaha
were they will change to the Wa
bash. Speeches by members of the
team and songs and yells by the stu
dents will feature the send-off at
the station.
Members of the Innocents society
are in charge of the parade and will
conduct the line of students through
the business section of town to the
station. The Corncobs will assist.
This will be the second send-off the
Cornhuskers have had this year and
every student is urged to help make
it a big one.
The Missouri contest will be the
last game the Huskers play until No
tre Dame comes here the 10th of
November for the Armistice day con
test. The Cornhuskers take the road
only once more after the Tiger con
test, that being when they go to
Ames to meet the Cyclones Novem
ber 17. It is expected the freshman
squad will make the trip to Ames.
"The send-off given the team two
weeks ago when we went to Illinois
was wonderful and I feel that the
entire student body is supporting the
team to the utmost and I would like
to see a large delegation at the sta
tion tomorrow when we leave for
the Tiger camp," was Captain Lew-
ellen's comment.
It has been a long time custom to
give Nebraska's athletic teams good
send-offs when they have departed
for foreign fields and every student
should make it a personal duty to
uphold this custom. The torchlight
parade which has been a long time
custom at Nebraska will be held the
night before the Notre Dame game.
Reports from Missouri indicate
that there will be plenty of Nebras
ka rooters in the stands when the
Cornhuskers take the field against
the Tigers. Nebraska played the
Tigers in Lincoln last fall for the
first time in a number of years and
decisely deeated the Missourians.
Coach Dawson will predict nothing as
to the outcome of Saturday's con
test. FORTY TURN OUT FOR
