THE DAILY NEBRASKAN 3 VALLEY GAMES ARE SCHEDULED (Continued from Pag 1) opening game is scheduled for De cember 16 which i unusually early in the season. In the past the con ference season usually opened after the Christmas holidays. Team Crippled Basketball prospects in the Hus ker camp took on a gloomy atmos phere tKTs season with the loss of the basket shooting ace, Clark Sma ha, and the towering giant, Ted Page, and "Andy" Andresen, stellar Nebraska guard. Smaha was one of the leading scorers in the Valley last season and Ted Page who handled the pivot position on Black's five was unequalled by any other center in the conference on tip-offs. He got the tip from every center he met on the court The basketball practice season has been slow to get under way on ac count of the number of men on Bearg's football squad. "Jug" Brown, Elmer Holm, Vint Lawaon, Leon Sprague and several other bas ketball men will not be able to report on the court until after Thanksgiv ing. Coach Black has started his prac tice and is giving his cagers three practice sessions a week to get His men in shape for the first game on December 16. The Nebraska coach is building his squad around Captain Tom Elliott and Kenneth Othmer, two lettermen from last year. "Olie" Olson will probably hold down one of the forward positions this year on the cage team and Othmer will handle the other one. Elliott is mak ing his bid for the pivot position and Black will have to develop a pair of guards to take the place of An dresen and Gerelick. Schedule la Given Bob Krall a reserve guard from last year's squad looks good for one of the guard positions and Elmer Holm will be back for the other guard position.

BUSKERS WORKOUT FOR SYRACUSE TILT (Continued from Page 1) Three elevens were practicing -on stadium sod last night rehearsing the new assortment of plays that Coach Bearg has been giving his men. Bill Bronson was calling signals in the first backfield with Howell and Pres nell at half and Oehlrich at full. In the second backfield Witte and Mc Bride were at the halves, Farley at full and Peaker barking the signals. Captain "Jug" Brown was alternat ing with Bill Bronson at the quarter position in the first backfield. Freshmen to Scrimmage Scrimmage with the freshman ele ven was on the program and will be a regular occurence for the first half of this week. The yearling team lined up against the Varsity and went through the Syracuse plays. The varsity eleven then launched an at tack of the new plays and although they proved effective to a certain ex tent against the yearlings, a great amount of work will be necessary to bring the plays up to working order against the Orange crew that will invade the Husker camp Saturday. Changes in the backfield may be on deck for this week. "Dutch" Witte, reserve halfback who has been show ing some exceptional work in the practice sessions and who romped over the Grinnell team to score his first Nebraska touchdown two weeks ago may replace a regular in the backfield. Witte is getting the brunt of the passing game in the Bearg squad. He passes with ease and eure ness and has a "shotgun" pass. Bearg has been looking for a good passer and the way it looks he has found his man in the former Lincoln high school star. In the scrimmage last night the freshmen only had a fair amount of success in their forward passes .against the Scarlet eleven. They used the Syracuse formations to a good advantage while the Beargmen pulled various plays in the passing and running formation for substan tial gains through the line and around the ends. Large Crowd To See Game John Selleck is expecting the sec ond largest football crowd in me morial stadium Saturday for the im portant intersection clash with the Syracuse Orange eleven. A crowd of 23,000 is expected at Saturday's game if the weather man treats Cornhusker football as he has been the past three weeks. The ticket 6ale is going fast but there will be a large number of good seats left Saturday, according to the business manager. Dads' Day at Nebraska Las been planned for this game and interest all over the state has been aroused in the Cornhusker dads and they ex pect to attend the big game en masse. A special section has been reserved for them in the stadium and a round Adults Learn as Easily as Children" Says Columbia University Professor No man or woman under fifty years of age need be discouraged from trying to learn anything which he or she need to learn, by the fear or being too old, according: to a statement recently made by Dr. Thorndike of Columbia University. Experiments made with two groups of adults of different ages proved that adults learn many subjects faster than do children, and the fact is easily illustrated that the majority of adult students absorb more knowl edge within a given time than do children. In answer to the question of why so many adults think that they can not learn so easily as children, the fact might be cited that the older folk lack the desire to learn. When the desire is strong enough, the in dividual will learn, as can be illus trated in the cases of mothers who have taken college courses with their sons and daughters. The art of learning is one that can be cultivated by anyone, and is not restricted to young people in either degree or speed. Because it does have to be cultivated many peo ple who have ceased to do so believe their inability to concentrate is due to old age. People of adult years who keep up the habit of study can bear testimony to the fact that with the acquisition of increased knowl edge the ability to gain more in creases rather than diminishes. This is only a logical development sinco the more one studies the more fa miliar should one become with the art of how to study, and that is, after all, more than half the battle. ipiaAmOUSE ( WOerrS-MOST UNIQUE THEATER WOaUTS .MOST UNIQUE THEATER HOME OF THE SPOKEN DRAMA LINCOLN (Mill rnri rnMDiuv frJOTEWORTHY ARTISTIC PRODUCTONS TONIGHT ALL WEEK Mat.

"There was a sound of revelry by night," as Lord Byron put it. And if you don't believe me, look it up in some canto or other of Childe Harold. This is not a story of flaming youth. Or any thing devilish. But just this : "Canada Dry" is the smoothest, mellowest, most palatable ginger ale you've ever tasted. It quenches your thirst. It has a distinc tive flavor.
