A new cyclorama costing $2,000
has just been installed on the stage
of the University Coliseum, and will

All Inaccuracies
The committee that is working on
the student directory has announced
that all persons whose last names
begin with any of the initials men
tioned below will please see the bul
letin board in Social Science to cor
rect any mistakes in the data that is
on tho typewritten sheets.
Names beginning with the initials
C, D, E, F, G, and I, are posted
The students are requested to make
the corrections immediately because
the sheets will only be on the board
Monday and Tuesday. Students are
again cautioned to make any cor

be left intact and not torn from the
wall.
These two days are the only two

"When Julius Caesar ordered the
publication of the Daily Acts, the
official proceedings of the Roman
Senate a half-century before the

per became more ,than a possibility
it became' a probability," said
Gayle C. Walker, acting director of
the School of Journalism in a talk
on "The Function of the School- of
Journalism" over the radio the other
evening.
"Had not cheap slavs labor suf
ficed Caesar'c purpose in Rome, the
birth of journalism might have been
advanced in history sixteen centur
ies, from Germany to Rome," he
went on, "Since the birth of com
munication the passion to transmit
the news of occurrences has vied
with the instinct of curiosity, the
human desire to be informed. Word

which permitted man to utilize tab

"A Russian Village," is the title of

of Russia, where her husband is di
rector of the Russian Reconstruction

"Far from the well-equipped schools
of Nebraska are the schools of this

above the third grade. But what
there is, is of the new sort. The

Amateur Stock
Show Is To Be
Held Saturday
The tenth annual Baby Interna
tional stock show will be held Sat
urday, October 22, in the judging
pavilion at the College of Agricul
ture. This is an amateur show spon
sored by the Block and Bridle club,
an organization composed of men
majoring in animal husbandry. It has
for its' purpose the promotion of a
greater interest among students in
fitting and showing live-stock. Fresh
men are especially urged to enter the
contest because of the training re
ceived and also the enjoyment of
competition for the several prizes
given in each class.
Several days before the show each
contestant expresses the type of ani
mal he wishes to show and draws
numbers for the animal. That gives
everyone an equal chance. After an
animal has been assigned him he im
mediately starts preparing it to pas's
the closest scrutiny given by any
judge, and also trains it to show to
the very best advantage. Everyone is
assured of as good an animal as his
rival. However, the judges pay no at
tention to the quality of the animal
but judge only the condition in which
it has been fitted and the way it is
shown.
There will be six different classes
of stock with approximately eight to
ten animals in each class. Plans are
for two classes of cattle, two classes

s ground gaining ace scored
the ball down the field with a
right end.
The game opened with the Husker
second string in action against the
Pioneer eleven. Captain Davis won
the toss and chose to defned the
south goal, kicking off to Nebraska.
Sloan received the opening kickoff
and advanced the pigskin to the 32-
yard line; punting on the second
down. One of the longest gains of
the day came for Grinnell when a
sneak pass was made netting the
Iowans 35 yards for the first down
of the game. Nebraska was then
penalized 15 yards for piling on,
putting the ball on the 8-yard line.
Grinnell, in ah attempt to put over
its only chance to score incompleted
a pass over the goal line, giving the
ball to the Huskers.
Sloan punted out of danger but
the combination of Mclntirei and Rose
made a second first down for the
Pioneers before the Huskers could
get started. On a series of line
bucks and forward passes the Husker
eleven made its first down of
the game.
Varsity Squad Goes In
Bearg was not satisfied with the
showing of his reserves against the
Grinnell eleven so inserted his first
Varsity eleven into the game. Cap
tain "Jug" Brown did not go in the
game but the pilot position was
handled by "Bill" Bronson. With
Nebraska's ground gaining backfield
in the game it was little trouble for
the backs to go around end and
through the line for large gains.
Presnell started off the assault
with a 31-yard run around the right
end. Howell hit the line for 8 yards
and again for 3 yards putting the
ball on the one yard line as the gun
sounded the end of the opening quar
ter. Presnell plunged through the Pion
eer line for the remaining one yard
and a touchdown on the opening play
in the second stanza. Howell tried
for kick but the ball went low. With
a six point lead the Nebraskans did
not stop but plunged and drove on
throughout the rest of the game until
the final 58 points had been rolled up
for Bearg's Scarlet eleven. The
drives for touchdown started and
Glenn Presnell was given the brunt
of the ball lugging job and crossed
tne orinnell line for the
three touchdowns.
