nearly 200 men tried out Work will
start immediately after the cast has
been announced and will continue
straight through until the first pre

an all-male cast is a new undertaking
for the Kosmet Klub and we were
not sure at first whether this idea
would be accepted here at Nebras
ka," said Robert F. Craig, president

the number that tried out, for we
have a large field from which to pick
our cast."

KAGGIE FRESHMEN
TRAIN FOR HDSKERS
Seventy-five Men Work Out Daily
Under Coach Speer; Some of
Material Is Outstanding
Manhattan, Kansas, Oct. 21.
Since the first cut in the Kansas Ag
gie freshman grid squad in which

Coach W. G. "Bunt" Speer, for
merly of Midland college, Fremont,
Nebraska, with the help of Doctor
A. A. Holtz, has been putting his
men through strenuous pre-season
training. This is Coaoh Speer's first
year with the Wildcat yearlings, but
with the outstanding material which
has shown up already this fall he
hopes to develop a powerful oppon
ent for the Husker freshmen.
Chancellor Avery Explains Names
Of Campus Buildings In Article
"Why is that building called by
that name?" says almost every new
comer to the campus of the Univer
sity when he or she sees the inscrip
tions on many of the University
buildings. The answers tu these
questions, which should also be in
teresting to students, are contained
in an article by Chancellor Avery,,
which appears in the October num
ber of the Nebraska Alumnus.
The naming of Brace Hall is ex
plained lu the 'following words:
"Brace Hall of Physics was planned
by Professor Brace, one of the most
eminent scientific men of the facul
ty. He died before the building was
completed, and on the recommenda
tion of his colleagues, with the ap
proval of Chancellor Andrews, the
Board of Regents named the build
ing In his honor."
Bessey Hall was named in honor
of Dr. C. E. Bessey, one of the fore
most botanists In America. At a

STUDENTS' AID
Requests No Tardiness from
Thanksgiving Vacation;
Cooperation Needed
DEAN REFUSES EXCUSES
Members of the Student Council
have issued a special request to Uni-
rversity students. It follows:
"We the members of the Student
Council do hereby request that all
students attend their classes, as
usual, on Wednesday before the
Thanksgiving recess, and that no
students fail to be back in time for
their first classes the following Mon
day. The University Senate has
granted another day of vacation in
order to enable students to go' to
their homes. The vacation begins
Thursday morning and ends Sunday
evening. The faculty has met us,
the students, and now it is up to us
to prove to them that we can go half
way.
Dean's Ruling
"The Executive Deans offices will
issue no excuses for these days and
it is our desire that students will
show their willingness to cooperate
by being present in their respective
classes."
The Council is now working on a
plan by which they will be able to
check on the students not present on
the Wednesday and Monday.
There is no reason why students
should "cut" was the prevalent idea
at the executive board Council meet
ing.
"If we are to be given considera
tion we" must be considerate," the
Board declared.
The extra holiday on the Friday
following Thanksgiving cameras a
result of favorable action by the
University Senate Committee to a
petition presented to them by the
Student Council, as representatives
of the student body.

Freshmen are now allowed to
enter the R. O. T. C. small-bore rifle
range in the basement of the Me
chanical Engineering Building to do
their required rifle shooting for a
marksmanship grade in first year
basic course drill. The entrance to
the range is on Tenth Street, and is
open from 8:30 a. m. to 5 p. m. on
all days except Saturday afternoon
and Sunday. Each man's score will
count as 50 per cent of his grade in
marksmanship. Freshman firing
must be completed before January 1.
Cup Awarded
The Commandant's Cup will again
be awarded to the company having
the highest average score. Each
freshmiin who does not fire will be
scored zero, thus bringing down his
own score in military science, and
also detracting from his company's
average. All freshmen assigned to
a company between the dates of
October 18 and January 1 will be
counted in the final score.
Freshmen are allowed to fire as
often as they wish in order to im
prove their scores. Preference on
the range, hovever, will be given
to men firing for their first score.
Questions concerning rifling will be
answered by Capt Lewis W. Eggers.

GLENN PRESNELL
GRID SQUAD HAS
HARD SCHEDULE
Only One Breathing Spell in
Sight When Freshmen
Play Kaggies
Only one breathing spell is in
sight for the Nebraska Cornhuskers
during the remainder of the 1926
football season, an. that will be more
than offset by the subsequent hap
penings.
After three weeks of bang-up foot
ball which has called for the Bearg
men to be on their toes every min
ute in meeting such worthy oppon
ents as Drake, Missouri, and Wash
ington, the Nebraskans this week face
what is always a real struggle that
with the Kansas Jayhawkers.
The Kansans took a beating from
their own statesmen when the Kansas
Aggies romped away to a 27 to 0
victory last Saturday, but who ever
heard of a Kansas team that didn't
make the Nebraska Cornhuskers
hustle from the first of the game to
the last?
Hard Came
The 1926 Jayhawkers are no dif
ferent from the rest. It will be a
tough afternoon's work cut out for
the Cornhuskers who, walk onto the
Lawrence gridiron next Saturday.
Added to the fact that Kansas and
Nebraska have been traditional op
ponents for more than three decades,
is the fact that not since 1896 have
the Jayhawkers managed to defeat
Nebraska on the Kansas field. They
have won a few times at Lincoln,
but never in thirty years at Lawrence
and it would be worth a lot to Coach
Cappon to break the jinx.
The week after the Kansas strug
gle will come the battle at Lincoln
with Iowa State, another team that
"lays" for Nebraska.- On November
6, the Varsity will have its only rest
of the season while watching the Ne
braska freshmen struggle with the
Kansas Aggie freshmen.
Kaggies Here a.
On November 13 the Kansas Ag
gies come to Lincoln. The Bachman
eleven is rated as the strongest in
the Valley, barring none, as is evi
denced by its 27 to 0 victory over K.
U. On November 20, New York
University, the team that is rated as
among the best in the East, and that
last Saturday beat Tulane, which
held Missouri to a scoreless tie, will
invade Nebraska field. And just five
days after that game comes the
game at Seattle with the University
of Washington Huskies, last year
Pacific coast champions and due to
repeat the triumph this fall!
Three headline struggles in twelve
days; three of the nations' foremost
football elevens lined up against the
Cornhuskers in less than two weeks'
time; that is the job cut out for the
1926 Cornhuskcj,
Fifty-Seven Members of R. O. T. C.
Band Will Make Trip to Kansas
When the wearers of the Scarlet
and Cream step upon the football
field next Saturday at Lawrence, they
will have the assistance of "old Ne
braska songs". The University of Ne
braska R. O. T. C. band will be there
fifty-seven strong to greet them when
they arrive in Lawrence and to in
still into them that Nebraska fight
and spirit.
The band is sent to one of the out-
of-town games with the team every
year. Whenever Nebraska and Kan
sas mix on Kansas soil the band goes
there with the team. In former years,
when Nebraska has been at Kansas,
that has been the Kansas home com
ing game. And vice-versa, when Kan
sas is at Nebraska, that is the day
especially dedicated to the old Corn-
husker graduates.
By special arrangement it has been
possible to take a larger band on the
trip this year than before. The-men
will ride on the Union Pacific special
which will leave Lincoln at 11:80
o'clock Friday night. The bapd will
have a special ear as usual.
The following men will make the

VARSITY LEFT THURSDAY
Squad of Thirty Makes Trip;
Handicapped by Few
Bad Injuries
More than four hundred students
will leave for Lawrence on the spec
ial Union Pacific train at 11:30
o'clock tonight to cheer their team
to greater efforts when it meets the
Jayhawk squad tomorrow afternoon.
The train will include the University
Band, the Corn-Cobs, the Varsity re
serves, the freshman squad, faculty
members, and students. Many other
students are planning to make the
trip in cars.
Despite the fact that Kansas was
badly defeated by the Kaggies last
Saturday, it is expected that they
will give Nebraska a fierce tussle
tomorrow. The fact that the Jay
hawks always point for the Huskers,
that the event will be homecoming
day, and that the school spirit is
being whipped to a frenzy with the
"We can beat Nebraska!" slogans,
will inspire their squad to enter the
contest with great determination and
confidence.
Huskers Ahead
Since 1892, when Nebraska and
Kansas first got together on a grid
iron, the Huskers have won twenty
one games against nine victories for
the Jayhawkers. Two games, those
of 1920 and 1923, were ties. Kansas
dopesters are pointing out that in
the nine victories for their squad,
three came in years ending in six
1896, 1906 and 1916. Since this is
1926 they feel that it is their time
to score.
Thirty members of the Husker
squad left for Lawrence late yester
day evening. In dummy scrimmage
Coach Bearg gave the Varsity their
final workout before the game yes
terday afternoon. With the excep
tion of the injuries of a week ago
which necessitates a new lineup in
the backfield, the squad is in good
condition, and the snap and enthu
siasm which they displayed on the
practice field this week points
towards a good exhibition of Husker
football prowess tomorrow.
Start Came
The squad which will probably
start against the Jayhawkers tomor
row will have Lee and Weir at the
ends, Stiner and Ashburn at tackles,
McMullen and Whitmore at guards,
James at center, Stephens at quart
er, Presnell and Mielenz at the halves
and Oehlrich at fullback. Other
members of the squad which left
last night are Vint Lawson, Roy
Mandery, George Shaner, Willard
Burnham, ends; Roy Randells, Cecil
Molzen, Everett Durish, Leroy Lucas
tackles; Merle Zuver, Elmer Holm,
guards; Lloyd Grow, Paul Morrison,
centers; Bill Bronscn, Don Lindell,
quarterbacks; Earl Voris, Frank
Dailey, Avard Mandery, Victor Beck,
backfield men.
Injuries
Jug Brown, Blue Howell, Clarence
Raish, Leon Sprague and Wally Mar
row, whose injuries will probably
keep them out of the game, will leave
tonight on the special. Other mem
bers of the squad making the trip
this evening are Walter Drath, Joe
