Because Material
Does Not Arrive
The fall festival announced for

well afford to be absent. Commit
tees have been working upon the fes
tival and announce that the material
being worked up is sontething entirely
new to the school and yet they believe
something which has long been
needed. The question is how well do
you know Nebraska?

by General Duncan. E. A. Burnett,
dean of the College of Agriculture,

That military training in the Uni
versity is a basis for any activity,

stressed the educational value of mil
itary training and urged the students
not to give up entirely their military
activities after graduation, but to
join a national guard company.

The oath of affirmation' to the
ideals of the University was admin
istered by Professor George Con
dra. It follows:
"In remembrance of the devotion
of our University, in recognition of
the generosity of the people of Ne
braska in freely maintaining it, in
the hope that it may continue to
serve the public good, and in grati
tude for its particular gifts to my
private life, I hereby pledge myself
to support in all ways open to me.
the true interests of University and
of the public which it represents, to
make its honor as my honor, and to
cherish its fair name."
The Cornhusker was sung to the
accompaniment of the band immedi
ately after the affirmation.
Swear Allegiance to Flag.
The oath of allegiance to the flag
is:
"I, , with a steadfast be
lief in the principles under which my
country was founded, with sincere
appreciation of my privileges as a
citizen thereof and a due regard for
my duties in upholding that citizen
ship, now reaffirm my faith in and
allegiance to Our Flag, and the in
stitutions which it represents. So
help me God." i
The Star Spangled Banner was
played while the cadets stood at at
tention. The oath of allegiance was
given by C. W. Taylor, state com
mandant of the American Legion.
Several hundred persons watched
the review and the presentation of
the members of the winning com
pany in "compet" last spring. The
ribbons, red and white, were pinned
on the cadets by General Duncan.

'FIGHTING CORNHUSKERS"
SEVERE KICK WHEN
BIZAD STUDENTS HOLD
ANNUAL CELEBRATION
Parade, Picnic, Athletic Con
tests and Dance on Pro
gram of Day.
FrFom morning till night the stu
dents of the College of Business
Administration celebrated their an
nual holiday Friday by conducting a
brilliant celebration which ended with
the dancing party at the Armory.
After getting off a bad start when
but a handful of the vacation day
celebraters reported for the booster
parade, the coming business lads
made a rousing finish when nearly
300 reported at the Armory for the
Bizad dancing party.
At 9 o'clock a scant hundred fol
lowers of the second largest college
of the school organized in front of
the Temple and started a morning's
parade towards the Agricultural col
lege. Marching two abreast, the en
thusiasts paraded the down town dis-
tricts.
The Bizads announced their
coming by shouting and blowing
horns and whistles which were fur
nished by the committee in charge
of the affair.
Reaching the Agricultural college
makers fell right into the task of en
joying themselves. Boxing matches,
wrestling contests, a tug of war, ball
games and other amusements kept
the Bizads merry.
After an hour's tussel in the an
nual football clash between the Ags
and the Bizads, the celebraters copped
a decisive 14 to 6 victory. The Ags
led at the half to the tune of then
lone marker, only to be outclassed in
every department of the game during
the final periods.
The long line of hungry Bizads
were served a lunch in barbecue style.
During the meal, members of the
Commercial Club solicited subscrip
tions for the Bizad publication. An
orchestra furnished occasional music
during the repast. The morning's ac
tivities were carried into several the
ater parties in the afternoon, and the
annual hop climaxed the festivities of
the Bizad day at the Armory Friday
evening.

PRICE 5 CENTS
GIVE DOPE CAN
THEY WIN BY 14-7 SCORE
By John Hollingtworth.
"They thall not pass, neither shall
they buck the line or run the ends"
was the mandate decreed and en
forced yesterday afternoon by Ne
braska's Fighting Cornhuskers when
they met and defeated three "invin
cible" teams from Notre Dame by a
14 to 7 score.
Twenty-five thousand enthusiastic
football fans packed the finished
parts of the stadium and the tem
porary stands at the ends of the field
to see the annual grid classic.
The crowd began pouring into the
stadium when the ges were opened
at 1 o'clock. At 1:30 o'clock the
girl cadets from Hastings gave
an
exhibition drill and from 1:30 until
2 o'clock two bands alternated in
playing. The Notre Dame team ap
peared on the field at 1:50 o'clock
and the Huskers five minutes later.
Crowd Cheers Touchdown.
The crowd went mad when Noble
skipped around the right end for Ne
braska's first score. The cheering
lasted over three minutes and the
air was filled with programs and hats
and coats.
Between halves the girl cadets
drilled again. The Corncobs, Ne
braska's pep organization, staged a
"frapped" football game.
The dope can was given the se
verest kicking of the year when the
jFighting Comhuskers turned in the
largest score ' against the Irish,
The "wonder" team from Notre
Dame is still wondering. Captain
Brown's statement at the Lincoln
Hotel Friday night was entirely dis
regarded. He said "We came out
here to win and we are going to win."
The Huskers didn't believe him.
Team Plays Well.
The playing of the entire team has
never been equalled, unless it was
the game with the Hibernians last
year. Every man on the team fought
every minute. Every man was a
star. It was the first time this year
that Notre Dame had to resort to
forward passing to make her downs.
Against big teams, from whom has
already turned in victories, she has
won them by remarkable end running
and battering the line but ber futile
attempts at those tactics were highly
noticeable in Saturday's game. Notre
Dame made but three first downs on
straight football, the remaining num
ber registered was accounted for by
the aerial route. It was also the
first game that Nebraska has been
able to insert substitutes into the
lineup against Notre Dame. The sub
stitutes had the same fire and fijrht
that the team that started the con
test showed.
Notre Dame scored its lone mark
er in the last few minutes of play
