This banquet, which has become a tra dition at the University, is given in honor and appreciation of the foot ball team and the work it has done for the school. The Innocents are in charge of the dinner and they say that as the Tem ple has been enlarged since last year, about 1500 men can be accommo dated. They have been at work for some time and according to Ken neth Cozier, general chairman, the banquet is to "be bigger and better than ever before." There will be two orchestras playing during the ; meal, the Kandy Kids and the Seren- aders. ! All the speakers have not yet been decided upon, but it is assured that Captain Lewellen and Coach Schulte will be on the list and if Coach Daw son returns, he will also talk.

BUYERS MAY RECEIVE REBATE ON ANNUALS Business Manager Announces That Success of Campaign May Warrant Refund. The price of the "Cornhusker of Progress," the 1924 yearbook of the University, originally set at $4.50, may be reduced fifty cents or more, in the form of a rebate when the book is issued, dependent upon the number of copies ordered in the sales campaign which began Monday and will continue until Friday, announces David G. Richard son, '25, Omaha, business manager. To secure student publications to students "as nearly as possible at A Thought for You. 31,000 Russian students have only one meal a day. 50 to 90 per cent of the students of central and eastern Europe are actually below physical efficiency level. 14,000 refugee students have no homes and no funds. Professors' salaries are so small that they live below the poverty line. Shattered currencies make sav ings worthless and day-to-day pro vision for expenses necessary. cost" is the instruction of the Board of Regents under which the Student Publication Board operates. Limita tion of salaries (in line with the prac tice at other middlewestern universi ties) and close supervision of the management of all student publica tions were adopted by the board last winter. This limitation in the amount of money staff members may make out of their positions makes It possible this year for the first time for the board to consider a possible rebate to buyers of the "Cornhusker," after the costs of the enlarged book are met and the limited salaries of staff members are paid. "Old Crads" Remembered. Of interest, not only to present Etudents but to students of former years, the yearbook will carry a motif of history dedicated to "Old Grads," says Robert F. Craig, editor-in-chief. Never before at the University, and perhaps never before in American colleges, has the place of the alumni occupied such a prominent position in the plans of an annual. Fifty-four years of activity at the University with the record of every organization will give the book a wide interest to graduates. This added interest will not be gained at the expense of usual sec tions; for plans for the 1924 annual include an enlargement of the size of the book both in page-size and number of pages. Most of the art worK will be done by campus artists and the printing of the volume has been awarded to a Lincoln firm.
