FINISH PLANS
FOR CARNIVAL
Committee of Scabbard and
Blade Completes Plans
for Military Fete.
COWBOY COSTUME TO
BE STYLE FOR PARTY
Hundreds of students are expect
ed to attend the annual Military Car
nival at the Armory tomorrow eve
ning. Roland Eastabrooks, chairman
of the committee of Scabbard and
Blade, military organization sponsor
ing the carnival, says that the affair
will be one of the most popular of
All-University parties.
The chief diversions of the evening
will be the faro, roulette, and dice
games. The students will be furnished
with Klondike currency with which
to play games and buy drinks from
an old fashioned bar. Members of
Pi Beta Phi will be Spanish dancers
and barmaids, with the music by the
Kandy Kids orchestra.
The popular costume will probably
be an ancient vest, cowboy chaps,
and a Mexican sombrero, as a real
western flavor has been promised by
the committee. As a counteracting
influence a large force of policemen
will be on hand.
Last year the party proved very
successful. Barmaids, dancers, and
a jail were included. A sheriff and
his posse kept the party down to a
decent level and were required to
deal harshly with some who grew too
bold with a six-shooter. Lieutenant
John Kellogg, in charge of gambling
devices this year, promises no inter
ference on the part of zealous law
enforcers except in extreme cases.

FOOTBALL SQUAD
IS WORKING HARD
Freshmen Use Irish Plays
In
Secret Scrimmage With
Husker Regulars.
The Varsity football squad is down
to serious business. With the gates
locked and all watchers including
newspaper men excluded, the Var
sity did its stuff with the freshmen.
Most of the regulars are being
given light work. Coach Dawson
wants to take no chances on his team
going stale, and the regulars who
have played steadily so 'far against
stiff opposition are being given an
opportunity to rest.
The freshmen are now using the
justly famed Notre Dame shift It is
doubtful if the yeariir.gs can execute
the play as well as Coach Rockne's
veterans, but the Varsity should gain
some idea of the potency of the Irish
attack.
The freshman team has been
drilled hard on Notre Dame plays.
Captain Weir, who will scout the
Notre Datoe-Wisconsin game, will
probably bring back more dope on
the fighting Irish. However, the
Notre Dame coach will probably not
uncover very much in this game. All
his strategy will be eaveC for the
Cornhuskers, the most dangerous
foe.

WOODS SPEAKS TO
COMMERCIAL CLUB
Cashier of Lincoln State Na
tional Bank Addresses
Students.
George Woods, cashier of the Lin
coln State National Bank, spoke on
"Business Ethics" at a meeting of the
University Commercial Club on
Thursday morning. In developing his
subject, Mr. Woods divided human
activities into three domains. The
first of these is the field of action
under compulsion, or under positive
law. The second is the domain of
absolutely free choice. The third is
the field of ethics, in which activities
are controlled by an unenforceable
code of conduct and n.anners.
Mr. Woods stated that all restric
tive laws have been passed because
people persist in violating the code
of ethics in exercising what they con
sider as their personal rights. The
Eighteenth Amendment, legislation
controlling the railroads, the Pure
Food laws, and restrictive laws on
banking have all been enacted because
business men abused their privileges.
The code of ethics of the business
world has been much improviJ dur
ing the past two decades. Business
men in all lines am trying to clean
up their own businesses. Mr. Woods
concluded bv saying that the ideal
should be to so conduct wurLiers r.3
to make restrictions on activity unnecessary.
