Sorority Competition Keen in
Contest for Nebraskan
Subscriptions.
MUST CHECK IN SALES
AT END OF EACH DAY
Pi Beta Phi sorority led at the end
of the first day in the subscription
' contest for The Daily Nebraskan. Al
though ' several sororities were not
rpnresented until after noon, com
petition was keen all day Monday.
The Delta Gamma's were In second
, ' place, while other sororities were not"
far behind.
No certain results for the first day
can be published since no sorority
. had checked in completely Monday
evening, and several had not check
ed in at all. Sororities are asked to
turn in all their subscriptions each
' day, between 4 and 6 o'clock at the
; business office of The Dailly Ne--
braskan, University Hall 10B. Re
ceipt books will be returned in ample
time for the next day's campaign.
Additional books were distributed-'
Monday evening. A supply of tag
for identifying subscribers will .be
available at the business office short
ly after noon Tuesday.
After Wednesday morning The
Daily Nebraskan will not be distri
buted free of charge from the Uni
versity Post Office in University
Hall. The presentation of receipts
showing payment will be the only
identification that will entitle a sub
' sciber to a copy of the paper.
Although some of the sororities se
cured promises from fraternities that
the fraternity Would credit its sub
scriptions to that sorority, Clarence
Eickhoff, business manager, announ
ces that fraternity or sorority sub
scriptions toe be delivered to the
houses each morning will not count
' in the contest.
The contest will end Thursday af
ternoon at 4 o'clock. After the sor
orities have checked in their books
and money, the standings will be
figured. Immediate announcement
will be made in regard to the winJ
ning sorority, which will receive
twenty copies of The Daily Nebras
kan delivered to the sorority house
every morning. The sorority which
secures the most points will, in ad
dition, have its group picture pub
lished in the paper soon after the
close of the contest
The ensuing publicity, the man
agement feels, would in itself be suf
ficient award to the winning soro
rity, since the circulation will total
more than 3,000 this year, being dis
tributed to all the high schools of
Nebraska, to the leading colleges of
the country, as well as to many of
the alumni of the University.
For each year's subscription, 10
points will be awarded the sorority
securing it, whether it be a local or
mail subscription; and for each one
of one semester duration 3 points
will be awarded. Local and students
subscriptions will cost (2 a year and
$1.25 a semester. Mail subscriptions
will be $3 a year.
Each ssrority will be in charge of
one of the three tables, located in
University Hall, Social Science
Building, and Library, for half a
day once during the campaign. Miss
Barbara Wiggenhorn, chairman olj
the committee in charge of the con
test, is also arranging for a cam
paign to be launched from the booth
located between Grant Memorial
Hall and Univsrsity Hall.

DORMITORY RULES
CHANGED BY DEAN
Rooms May Now be Leased for
Only One Semester; the
Houses Not Full.
Dormitory roms may be leased for
only one semester, according to an
announcemen t made Monday by
Dean Amanda Heppner. A number
of choice rooms are still available
and may be had for prices varying
from $41 to $58 for one semester,
or four and one-half months. Women
who are intrested should inquire at
Ellen Smith Hall.
Until this year women living in
dormitories were required to lease
their rooms for the entire year. As
vacancies still remain it has been de
cided to make the ruling less binding.
The dormitories are open to upper
classwomen, graduate women stu
dents and women employees as well
as freshmen.
A large percent of the rooming
houses near the campus also have
vacant rooms. This fact is attributed
to the large number of women who
are working for board and room in
private homes, to the movement of
students to the residence section
where they make their homes with
friends and relatives, and to the
small increase of women students in
the new registration.
New Method Adopted by Athletic
Committee
After selling student athletic tick
ets for two years by the salesman
method, the athletic department has
decided that the students are suffi
ciently educated to fully appreciate
the real value of the single tax
method. Consequently no students
will be asked to tul tickets on the
campus nor will any student be ap
proached other than through posters
and publicity.
The student athletic ticket, a
blanket ticket to cover every athletic
event on the Cornhusker schedule, is
universally used in colleges. It gives
the student the advantage of the
monev saved by eliminating the cost
of separate campaigns for each sport
And, it balances the profitable ana
unprofitable sport to enable regular
expenditures in each department.
According to the present plans,
tickets will be placed on sale and
students will present their registra
tion fee receipt to prove that they are
regularly enrolled students in the
University. Seats will be reserved
for the four Nebraska football games
1924 Cornhuskers to be
Disposed of This Week
The sale of 1924 Cornhuskers waj
verv ffood. according to the manage
ment of last year's annual. There
qre a few books on wh'ch first pay
ments were made and which have
not been claimed. Any student who
failed to make his later payments
can get his Cornhusker by paying
the remainder of the price at the
student activities office in the Arm-
iry Tuesday oi Wednesday after
noon.

AIMNIYERSITY
PARTY PLANNED
First of Six Dances to be Held
Saturday Night in the
Armory.
A Freshman Party, at the Armory
Saturday evening, planned by the
All-University Party Committee in
order that freshmen may get ac
quainted with each other and with
upperclassmen, is to be the first of
a series of six All-University Par
ties. Refreshments and games in addi
tion, to the dance are being planned
by the committee which met Monday
afternoon. The admission to the
party will be 35c.
Members of the general committee

Latimer Hubka is general chair
man and Margaret Long is secretary
of the general committee.
for Ticket Campaign
and the game between Wesleyan and
Simpson. Basketball will probably
be played in the Coliseum, but no
plans have been made for the reser
vation of seats there. Other sports
will not require reservations.
In order that students will be al
lowed to sit with friends who might
come to the football games, the ath
letic department has made a provi
sion that a student may bring in his
reserved ticket before a game and
trade it for a ticket in some other
part of the Stadium and purchase, as
many ntore as he desires. This will
eliminate any objection to the re
served seats.
No mark for the sales to reach is
being set Three thousand seats,
however, have been reserved as the
student section and it is expected that
at least that many students will want
the tickets. In order that there will
be no preference other than arriving
at the booth early, no tickets will
be reserved by earlier request nor
will any tickets be sold from any oth
er place than the central booth on the
campus.

STADIUM SEATS
ALL RESERVED
Nebaska Athletic Tickets Go
On Sale Next Monday
for $7.50.
STUDENTS' SECTION TO
BE LOCATED IN CENTER
A section comprising three thous
and seats in the heart of the Memor
ial Stadium, extending from 20-yard
line to 20-yard line and from the
first to the twenty-second row, has
been reserved as the student section
for the 1924 football season, accord
ing to John K. Selleck, business agent
for the athletic department. Contrary
to the plan of a year ago, all students
will reserve scats for the season.
This, Mr. Selleck stated, will elimin
ate the necessity of students going
early to the games in order to get the
choice seats.
All tickets will go on sale Monday
morning September 29, at 7:15. They
will be sold for $7.60. Prior to that
time, no tickets will be reserved and
preference will be given in order
of demand at the ticket windows on
that morning. , Monroe D. Gleason
general chairman of the sales, stated
that students will not be solicited by
salesmen in any manner but that it
is purely a question of the student
appreciating the real value that he
is receiving "a privilege that no one
but a regularly enrolled student in
the University is given."
According to the present plans, the
chairman stated, a student will have
to prove that he is a student in the
University by presenting his registra
tion fee receipt. He will then be al
lowed to buy a ticket This is plan
ned to eliminate all outsiders from
the student section, placing any lack
of sportsmanship on the student body
or on the other spectators.
Organizations that want to sit in
a body at the games are urged to
collect the money before the tickets
ge on sale and appoint a member to
be in line Monday morning. This is
the only satisfactory method that the
committee has been able to find to
give everyone an equal chance at the
choicer seats.
' Mr. Selleck stated that students
have been given every consideration
in the choice of seats in the stadium.
He also added that the department
has made a provision to enable stu
dents to turn in their tickets for any
one game and receive another in
some other part of the stadium so
that they may sit with their friends
or relatives. This was planned to
eliminate any objection to the reser
vation of seats.
Monroe D. Gleason, general chair
man, and Emmett V. Maun, chairman
of the publicity feel confident that
the students will take at least three
thousand of the seats. Freshmen,
who have not had the opportunity to
realize the real benefits of the stu
dent athletic ticket are considered
the only obstacles to the immediate
success of the sales mark. To an
nounce the sale of the tickets and to
better inform all men and women of
the real benefits of the athletic ticket,
a short campaign of publicity will be
conducted before the sale opens.
Posters, bills,, and cards plus the
newspapers will be used to encourage
rapid sales.
N BOOK SUPPLY
GROWS SMALLER
Freshmen Are Urged to Pre
sent Cards for Copies

Freshmen who have not received
copies of the 1921-25 "N" book must

tion at the Y. M. C. A. in the Temple
building, or at the Y. W. C. A. in
Ellen Smith Hall.

of all kinds fo rstudents. Among
the interesting features are a calen
dar of important events and explan
ations of the point system for wo
men's activities and the University
traditions. Lists of fraternities and
sororities, an athletic section and a
list of campus organizations are in
cluded. The book is bound in leather and
is gold trimmed. It is larger than
those of previous years. The price
