VARSITY RESUMES
SCRIMMAGE WITH
FROSH AS AGGIES
Vint String Battles Yearlings
Tuesday in Preparing for
Iowa Contest.
AMES PLAYS OF LITTLE
AVAIL AGAINST HUSKERS
Scrimmage was resumed in the
Cornhusker training camp Tuesday
afternoon when the first string regu
lars faced the freshman pigskinners
in preparation for the Ames Aggie
conflict Saturday.
Monday was spent by the freshmen
in perfecting Ames' plays and for
mations presented to them in chart
form by Coach Owen Frank, who
scouted the Ames-Drake combat a
week ago. In yesterday's workout
the frosh yainly attempted execution
of these formations. The varsity
gridsters were still fighting and they
insist they are going to fight until
the moleskins have been hung up for
the last time this year.
Watch Huskers.
The farmers from Ames were side
line participants in the Nebraska-No-tre
Dame game and everyone of them
watched every move that their re
spective opponents made. Consequent
ly the Husker machine will have
some handicap. But Coach Dawson
always has plenty of new plays and
formations, so the Ames squad may
waste time in preparing and concen
trating their time on defensive work
against those particular plays. ' Ames
is planning to give the Huskers the
battle of a lifetime and with that for
their objective they . have started
practice this week with a jump.
Learn New Play.
All of their injured men have
had two weeks in which to recuperate
and Monday found them all in mole
skins, raring to go. The second
string was sent against the freshman
in a tough scrimmage while the first
string spent most of their time in an
intensive signal drill and the master
ing of new plays. Toward the close
of the workout they were sent into
the scrimmage line.
All of the Huskers with the excep
tion of Dave Noble were scrimmaging
with the yearlings in yesterday's grid
grind.
A stiff workout and scrimmage is
on the slate for Wednesday and
Thursday, and early Friday the squad
will entrain for the Iowa State school
where they will endeavor to dupli
cate their performance of last year.

Speed "Cops" Are
Non-Use of Pure, Unsoiled Diction
To the college student who has had
intensive training, the ignorance of
the average policeman is appalling.
Indeed, although we must be careful
when we get in the region of cold
facts and simple statistics, we are
able to inform our large reader fol
lowing that not a single policeman in
either Omaha, Lincoln, or Fremont
(a special investigator left this af
ternoon for Grand Island), is a doc
tor of philosophy or has written a
treastise for his master's degree. This
charge, of course, is so serious that
14 is not made lightly. We are pre
pared to furnish names and license
numbers to interested persons.
The speed "cops" are the worst
offenders in the matter of pure and
unsoiled diction. It is especially, an
noying to be brought up quickly with
an ungrammatical sentence like the
following:
"Hey, you egg, where dya get that
'e stuff speedin'. Jam on yer
wakes, yuh dub, and pull up ter the
curbin'."
To an car finely adjusted in rhet
oric a sentence like that causes nearly
" much anguish as the ten dollars
costs. Imagine Officer Gross
dressing Mr. Blank that wayl Of
course, it is unknown whether Mr.
'nk has a car, or if he dia have
car whether he would speed, but at
- rate, kind reader, just imagine it!
Suppose that instead of using such
Barbarisms and slang, the cop had

according to David G. Richardson,
business manager. Seniors, juniors,

The purpose of having the student
pictures made earlier than usual is
that more time will be available for
artistic arrangement.
The contract for the big book was

because of the excentional service
and high quality work that was com
pleted last year. The studio hns ex
cellent equipment, the Cornhusker
management said, and Dole will be
the official photographer of the 1924
annual.
"Another reason for having the
nictures made earlier is that we have
so many requests to Isave them taken
before Christmas, so that all who
wish may have copies made fcr
Christmas gifts," said Robert Craig,
editor.
The editorial staff ha3 been hard

MARVIN SPEAKS
TO FRESHEN
Head of Physics Department
Outlines Field of Natural
Science.
PHYSICAL SCIENCE IS
SUBJECT OF LECTURE
"Frontiers of Physics" was the
subject of the lecture given by Prof.
H. H. Marvin, head of the depart
ment of physics, before the freshman
lecture students of the College of
Arts and Sciences Monday evening
and Tuesday morning. His talk was
a general survey of the field of phy
sical science, with stress placed upon
the advances made in recent years.
To illustrate his lecture, Professor
Marvin used experiments with lab
oratory apparatus and diagrams of
other apparatus commonly used.
"The aim of natural science is to
investigate the phenomena of na
ture and to classify those phenomena,
grouping them under a few general
laws," declared the speaker. "The
natural sciences divide into ' two
classes, those dealing with living mat
ter, the biological, and those dealing
with inert matter, the physical."
Names Important Discoveries.
The most important discoveries in
the field of physics during the past
thirty years are electrons, the evap
oration of electrons from hot metals
when the metals are charged with
negative electricity, the X-ray, and
radio activity, he said.
Electrons, said Professor Marvin,
are very minute particles of matter
negatively charged with electricity.
The mass of an electron is about one-
eighteen hundredth part of the mass
of an atom of hydrogen.
X-ray was dicovered in 1895 by
Roentgen, a German chemist and
amateur photographer. One day
when he was experimenting with the
vacuum tube he was called out of
his laboratory. He placed the tube
still glowing from the electrical
charge, upon a cardboard box con
taining camera places. When the
plates were developed he found on
them the impression of his laboratory
kev which had been on top of the
box. He experimented and found
the principals of the X-ray.

morning. Dr. Weir examined the
methods of the college and the work
of the students. He is on his annual
trip from New York, visiting the den

west. Many of last year's graduates
visited the college Saturday and Mon
day. Among them were Drs. E. M.
Leith, 0. K. Brt, S. P. Vail, H. L
Kennedy, A E. Carr, and J. Peters.
The school is glad to see the old

Military Carnival
On Night Before Orange Game
The night before the Syracuse

screams of a year ago when the last

AMES GAME IS
CRUCIAL POINT
IN GRID SEASON
Victory Over Notre Dame
Brings Back Prestige
to Huskers.
NEED DECISIVE VALLEY
WIN TO STAY ON TOP
Saturday's game with Ames marks
a crucial point in Nebraska's football
schedule. A win over Notre Dame
went a long way in gaining back
prestige in national football circles,
but a decisive win over a Valley
eleven is necessary to place the
Huskers on top.
No one who saw the torchlight pa
rade Friday evening, and heard the
animated cheering at the Notre
Dame game, can doubt that it was
the student loyalty to the team that
made possible the victory over Rock
ne's eleven. That same pep and
spirit are expected to enable the
team to win the Ames game Satur
day by such a decisive score that the
ownership of the Valley will no long
er be in doubt.
Special to Ames.
An opportunity to support the
team and to see one of the best Val
ley games of the year is offered to
Nebraska students by the running of
a special train to Ames. At least
700 "students should go to Ames to
back the team. The day of the Ne
braska game will be Homecoming day
at Ames and their big game of the
season.
The Innocents will have chiage of
the train and they have turned over
the ticket sale to the Corncobs, who
will start an active selling campaign
today. Tickets for the special are
$10.70 for a journey of over 500
miles. The train leaves Lincoln at
6 a. m. Saturday arriving at Ames
shortly before noon. The game will
start at 2:30. The return train will
leave in the evening following all
the activities of the day, arriving in
Lincoln sometime during the night.
Reserved Seats.
Reserved seat tickets for the game
can be procured at Latsch Brothers
or at the athletic office. All Nebras
ka rooters will sit together in a spe
cial reserved section. The game is
attracting much attention in Iowa
and a capacity crowd is expected.
So that somewhere near the exact
number of seats to be reserved can
be known it is asked that all students
reserve their seats early. It will be
necessary for the Corncobs to know
by Thursday evening the number who
will be on the special.
Besides the student delegation, the
freshman football squad and the band
will make the trip. Monroe Glea
son, head cheer leader, will be at
the game to organize the rooters.
Student leaders are urging that you
be one of the 700 to Ames.
