BLOODGOOD PASSES TO COLLINS FOR LONE SCORE NORMAN, Okla., Oct. 11.

' i ..the score 14 to 0 against them at the beginning of the sc v half, the Cornhuskers drove down the field for a touchdown, but were unable to maintain the pace. Nebraska prevented another Sooner touchdown in the last quarter when the Oklahoma team passed its way down the field to the 1-yard line, but failed to put the ball over on the last down by 6 inches. Hendricks, who smashed through the Husker line time after time for substantial gains, was the star, although "Obie" Bristow, Sooner captain, ran him a close race for honors with his defensive work and his wonderful passing game. Captain Weir was the outstanding Husker player. Inability to drive through the Sooner line at the necessary times, coupled with failure to hold the line against the Sooner drive in the second quarter, accounted for the Husker defeat.

MAILAND KILLED IN CAR ACCIDENT University Freshman Meets Death When Machine Strikes Embankment. FETTERMAN IS DAZED AS RESULT OF IMPACT Karl G. Mailand. '28. Omaha, eon of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Mailand of the Wellington Hotel. Omaha, was killed almost instantly, and Jesse Fet- terman, '28, Omaha, was injured when the stripped speedster in which : they were driving to Omaha to spend the week end with their parents, left the road and struck an embankment two and one-half miles east of Gret na on the D. L. D. highway about 6 o'cock Friday evening. Fetterman. who was thrown clear of the car and escaped with slight injuries, was delirious and unable to tell how the accident happened. He was taken to his home in Omaha. Athough he was driving when the two students left Lincoln about 5 o'clock it is not thought that he was still at the wheel when the accident occurred. In his delirium he told rescuers that the boy with him was Russell Hunter, a freshman, of Om aha, with whom he had planned ear lier to make the trip. Hunter's par ents made a trip from Omaha to Gretna expecting to find the dead body of their son, but found another man instead. Mailand. 18. and Fetterman, 19, were graduated from Omaha Central high school in 1924. Both entered the University this fall and pledge to the Alpha Sigma Phi fraternity. Mailand had registered for the pre-medic course. Defective lights are believed to have been responsible for the acci dent, making it impossible for the driver to see the loose gravel at the edge of the road. W. M. McArthur, Omaha, who with N. O. Knutson, also of Omaha, arrived at the scene just a few minutes after the accident, said that when the young men had passed his machine a short time be fore, they had been running without lights. Mailand was found pinned between the car and an embankment by the side of the road, which had been graded a little below the natural sur face of the hill. He suffered a se vere fracture of the skulL Fetter man, his companion, was badly bruis ed about the face, and was found several feet from the car. The ma chine was badly damaged. In delirium, Fettermnui told that the machine was borrowed. It was the same speedster in which Russell Hunter was arrested by Officer Schappaug for driving with defective lights Tuesday evening. In police court Wednesday morning he was forbidden to ride in or drive a car for ninety days. The "Bug," as the ear is called, belongs to William Dover, according to members of the fraternity. Besides his parents, young Mailand is survived by two brothers, Walter C. 19. and Homer. 9. The body was taken from Gretna to Omaha by the father of the deceased. No funeral arrangements have been made yet TO GIVE COLGATE REAL RECEPTION Nebraska Will Continue Hos pitality; Illinois Appreci ates Welcome.

PRICE 5 CENTS HOWELL TALKS TO STUDENTS Senator Says Fight Is Between President Coolidge and Davis. PRAISES BUDGET LAW OF THIS ADMINISTRATION "The fight in this campaign is be tween President Coolidge and John W. Davis," declared United States Senator R. B. Howell in his address Saturday morning at the Temple. Senator Howell stated that Davis was sure of 139 electoral votes in the south and that President Cool idge was certain to carry New Eng- , land, Pennslyvania and New York. In this case, even if LaFollette car ries the other thirty states he would not have enough electoral votes to make him president "We must cast our ballot so it will have some weight as between these two leading candidates," the Senator declared. He said that if the election went into the House of Representatives there would be five states whose votes would not count at all because of a tie in the delega tion. Nebraska would be one of these states because she has three re publicans and three democrats. He admitted that the House would pro bably be unable to settle the con test Senator Howell opened his ad dress by stating that it was too bad more student did not take an active interest in politics. He stated that politics is just as important as business. " Good politics is just good business, and everything less than this is bad politics." The speaker praised the budget law of the present administration and the reduction of the public debt He maintained that the administra tion had been economical and had reduced the public payroll by 100, 000 employees during the last three years. He said that the business re cord of the Coolidge administration should warrant its return to pawer. "The only reason for a third tick- Cl til uic wuajr la tuc Aginux- tural problem," declared Senator Howell. He said that one-half of the people are not getting their share of the national income and that the farmer never has received his share. He quoted Kin, the statistician, to show that thirty-two percent of all our people engaged in gainful oc cupations are agriculturists while ag riculturists receive but eighteen per cent of the total national income. (Continued on Page Two.) Appointments In making the promotions, Major Erickson stated that the men were appointed to the positions by merit of their leadership, their interest in military work, their ability in rrac tical and theoretical work, and their general capability to discharge the duties assigned to them. CHARLES C CALDWELL. Charles C. Caldwell, '25, Arlington, who was commissioned colonel of the University of Nebraska R. O. T. C. Regiment He is president, of the senior class and a member of Pershing Rifles and of Scabbard and Blade. He is also a member of Sigma Chi fraternity. The three majors will be in com mand of the three battalions of the regiment They win be in command whenever the regiment is assembled for review, parade, or inspection. Other appointments will be made as soon as the officers have time to review the work of the cadets on the field with the companies. In order to assure the better men of the high er promotions, it was thought quite probable that delaying further ap pointments for week or mart wU allow the Issuing of an order carry ing the names of men deserving the priority in any promotions that might arise.
