Nebraskan Writer
Goes With Team
In accordance with the Nebras
kan's policy of giving its readers
first-hand "dope" at all times on
the "Fighting Cornhusker" foot
ball team, the paper is sending a
special representative to the Missouri-Nebraska
game.
He will send back a special wire
report of the game Saturday night,
so that the readers of Sunday's
Nebraskan will be treated to all
the highlights and features of the
Tiger game.
NOVEMBER 7 IS DATE
SET FOR BIZAD DAY
Program Includes Football
Game, Dance, Contest and
and Parade.
Bizad Day will be held Wednesday,
November 7. This is an annual af
fair of the College of Business Ad
ministration. At this time the Uni
versity Commercial club . has suc
ceeded in obtaining permission from
the Dean to hold an open day.
All students registered in the Col
lege of Business Administration will
be excused from classes for the en
tire day.
A parade will form at 9 o'clock in
front of the Social Science building
Wednesday morning, and proceed to
one of the parks, the exact location
of which will be announced later.
Events will be held for both men
and women. The traditional fat
men's race, the barrel rice, the potato
race, and the grea:- part of the
morning will be taken up with such
events. A boxing contest wili be
held in addtion to the above men
tioned events.
Dinner -will be held in the park
and preparations are under way to
provide a killing feast.
Acs. Bixads.
Ernest Raun, chairman of athletics,
is now making arrangements for a
football game between the College
of Business Administration and the
College of Agriculture. Those stu
dents who saw the game last year
between these olleges will remember
it as a hair-raiser.
Rex Reese will heve charge of the
dance which will wind up the day.
This dance will be held at the Cham
ber of Commerce and the Nebraskans
have been engaged for the occasion.
Several stunts will be provided for
during the dance. The Bizad quar
tet will make its debut and render
some harmony.
i First Held in 1921.
Bizad Day was first held in 1921
under the leadership of Harry La-
Towsky and has remained a tradition
since that date. Kenneth Cozier had
charge of it last year.
Under the direction of Dietrich
Dierks it is hoped that this will be
the biggest year for Bizad Day and
the preparations which are under way
are making for a larger attendance
than before.
Last rear the adversities of
weather went toward a drop in the
attendance and unless such misfor
tune occurrs this year, the whole
college will be on hand to help make
fun.
Dierks has several surprises in
store for the Bizads which will go
toward creating an atmosphere of
enjoyment.
Bizad Day is undoubtedly the big
gest affair in the list of the Business
Administration College. Dean Lc
Rossignol will be present as well as
the professors of the College.

Kansas Wins Moral Victory
t Uncle Jimmy Husker Declares
"I see that the Jayhawks won a
moral victory Saturday," said the
Old Grad.
Uncle Jimmy looked up with his
quizzical grin. "Moral victory, eh?
Well, I guess that's right. It only
i goes to show how easy it is to win
some sort of victory. I didn't see
the game the first Kansas game
I've missed for years and years but
from the newspaper accounts I
judge that the present generation of
Jayhawkers are still delighted with
moral victories. And of course it
was a moral victory you know that
a physical licking chronologically pre
cedes a moral victory.
"But I guess I shouldn't say very
much. I didn't attend the game.
You see Joe called up Friday night
and said that the ducks were com
ing down. With true Nebraska as
surance of certain victory over our
lowly neighbors I slipped out to the
club house. The ducks should have
been there but they weren't and so
I spent the morning looking for the
northern flight.
"About 1:15 I couldn't stand it
any longer. I'd have given a. whole
lot to have been out in my seat watch
ing the old game. The best I could
do was to use Joe's radio. And say,
I could hear the band and every yell
almost hear the signals. The chap

BY CHANCELLOR AVERY
Urges All Students to Co-operate
in Making Success of
Undertaking.
'"Dad's Day is a mighty fine
thing," declared Chancellor Avery
Thursday afternoon, "and I sincerely
hope that the students in the Uni
versity will give the closest co-oper
ation possible to those organizations
sponsoring the event I thoroughly
approve of the idea, and believe that
it will meet with only the heartiest
response from Nebraskans," ho con
cluded.
"Dad's Day" last year was an un
qualified success, according to mem
bers of the committee, and more
than 1,000 dads took possession of
the campus that day.
This year it comes November 10,
the date of one of the important
football games the Notre Dame
game and a" large increase in at
tendance is expected.
Members of the committee sug
gest that the day be set aiide now
in order that nothing may interfere
with preparations being made.
Arrangements are in charge of the
Vikings, and definite plans will be
made soon, according to Art Whit
worthy president of the organization.

Rumors as False
In answer to some very assinine
rumors floating around concerning
fraternity feeling on the varsity,
want to make the following
statement:
There positively is no fraternity
cliquing on the team. In Satur
day's game on the one yard line
Dave Noble wanted Rufe Dewitz
to carry it Is that fraternity
feeling? As captain of the team
I ordered Rufe to send Dave into
the line on the third play and
Herb on the last play. Little Herb
hit with everything he had and
fought to put the ball over.
Instead of finding a bad spirit
on the team look for it outside.
We're Nebraska varsity men and
our hearts are of varsity calibre.
The strongest fraternity in Ne
braska is the football squad.

LAWS HERE SPEECH
GIVEN BY PARRIOTT
Declares That Graduates Will
Know ' More Law Than
v Practitioners.
"When you graduate from this
school you will know more substan
tive law than one-half the practition
ers of this state," asserted W. C. Par
riott, former judge of the district
court, in an address Tuesday evening
to Delta Theta Phi and a number of
freshmen in the law college.
The value of thorough knowledge
in the substantive law was the sub
ject of Mr. Parriott's talk. He also
gave the students advice on the se
lection of a location after graduation.
"If the man who is in the law
school could realize the necessity of
knowing the theoretical side of tfce
law, he wouldn't mind hard study,"
istated Mr- Parriott "Though you
may feel shaky about the practice
side of it, when you get out of col
lege you will find it easy enough to
pick up.
"There was never a Lime in the
history of the world when there was
a greater opportunity for the grad
uate of the law school than now," he
continued. "There are great proba
bilities that you will make your mark
more quickly in a small towi. tiian
in a city. When you get a reputa
tion as a good lawyer you can change
your locaion.
"Getlnore out of the law school
than mere theory of the law. Be
sure and establish in your commun
ity the real true meaning of business
integrity. GoG to all the public
functions of the town such as pat
riotic raises and picnics," said Mr.
Parriott "Be a part of the com
munity." Keep Your Promise!

MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION
APPEALS TO LOYALTY
Several hundred have made the
second payment on the stadium
! pledges made a year ago. Thurs
! day was the second day of the volun
tary payment campaign. Practically
jail students who made pledges last
year and who have returned to school
this year are expected to make their
payments before the end of the cam-
aign next Wednesday.
Although several hundred students
have made their stadium payments
already, unless a many more make
payments within the remaining days
of the campaign the memorial asso
ciation will be greatly disappointed
in the attitude of Nebraska students
towards the promise which they made
a year ago.
The asociatoin said Thursday eve
ning, "Nebraska students have al
ways stood by their word. We surely
expect that they will not go back on
the promise which they made to us.
Students Made Promise
"Nebraska students, when they
volunteered to pay $105,000 of the
cost of building the Nebraska Mem
orial Stadium, made a promise to the
memorial association. We have al
ways had faith in the Nebraska stu
dents. That is why we went to them
first when we started to raise money
for the stadium. We sincerely be
lieve that they will come through
clean, that they will keep the pro
mises they made to us.
"We regard the stadium pledges as
promises. Of course the pledges are
obligatory, but we prefer to have
Nebraska students pay their pledges
voluntarily, rather than to be com
pelled to force payment out of them.
We ask them to make their orignal
pledges voluntarily. We ask them to
make pledges that were far below the
average pledge of other schools. We
conducted our entire campaign on a
voluntary basis. We hope to secure
our payments on the same basis.
And because we did get our pledges
voluntarily, we expect little trouble
in collecting the remaining pay
ments." All Second Payment Due

TURKISH PRINCESS
VISITS UNIVERSITY
Greatly Impressed by Beauty
of College of Agriculture
Campus.
Princess Lei a Fotiades of Smyrna,
Turkey, visited the campus of the
University of Nebraska Wednesday
with Yeshwantrao P. Bhosale, of
Ko'hapur, India.
She was greatly pleased with the
College of Agriculture campus and
made a passing remark that it was
the first campus of the kind she had
seen.
She spent some time in looking
over the buildings at the Agricultural
College and admired the dairy herd
and the beef cattle.
When the princess was given a
chance to examine some copies
of the Daily Nebraskan she looked
them over carefully and said, "This
is just the kind of paper that a
stranger, who wants to know sboot
the University in a short time, should
read. After reading it, I knew very
well what the University was doing
and what was going on in the Univer
sity circles. I recommend the paper
to strangers."
"The University buildings," she
added, "are magnificent ard ti e cam
puses are beautiful."
She further says, "The city of Lin
coln is a calm and quiet place and
is best suited for the purpof! of an
University town. The bouses, though
small, are nice and cozy ani charm
ing and pleasing to the eye."
During her stay in Line on. Prin
cess Lela Fotiades was a guest of
Yethwani? P. Bhosale.
