Oklahoma Wins, 14 to 7 Make First Touchdown Through
Break In Game and Add to Total by Smashing Through
Nebraska's Forward Wall.
BLOODGOOD PASSES TO COLLINS FOR LONE SCORE
NORMAN, Okla., Oct. 11. An Oklahoma touchdown
gained in the first minute of play when Woodall blocked Blood
eood's punt from the 25-yard line was the margin which de
feated the Huskers. 4 to 7, before 7,000 spectators at Owen
field here today. ' 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.

as she did in tnrowing ner opponent iur luaoco

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

idea on Home-Coming Day each
year.
It is not necessary to spend a
large amour t ol money on the deco-
rationsas the c.-.ntest will be judged
entirely cn the basis of cleverness
and originality. The idta of Hame-
Coming nt.d f ho of the football
game should be used to some ex
tent. Two prizes are offered: one for
the best decorated sorority house or
dormitory given by Hallett; and the
other for the best decorated frater
nity house given by the Hardy Fur
niture Company. These prizes will
be displayed in the windows of the
respective stores sometime this
week.
The contest last year was won by
Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Every house
in the University entered into the
spirit of the idea, and it received
favorable comment from the visiting
Jayhawkers and many alumni.

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.
