Lineup by Saturday; Squad
To Practice in Chicago
Nebraska's Husker football team
will leave Lincoln at 4:45 o'clock
this afternoon for the camp of the
Pitt Panthers where the Scarlet war
riors from the Cornhusker 6tate will
meet Pittsburgh university in an in
tersectional football battle. Coach
Ernest E. Bearg, Husker football
mentor, will take twenty-six football
players with him for Nebraska's sec
ond intersectional tilt of the season.
Barg: is taking two full teams and
and extra guard, tackle, end, and
backfield man.
The starting lineup of the Pitt
Husker game, and a comparison of
weights is as follows:

Practice Is Light
The practice session on stadium
field last night consisted of a light
workout and signal drill for the Pitt
game. No strenous scrimmage work
will be on deck before the all impor
tant intersectional clash as Bearg
wants to keep the injury list down
to zero. Ray Randels, line captain of
the Husker squad, was watching
practice from ttye sidelines last night
and will probably not workout with
the Nebraska squad until the arrival
at Chicago where Bearg will send his
warriors through a limbering up ses
sion on Northwestern's field. For

"Take vanity cases for exam

the home economics department at
the Wisconsin College of Agricul

newest vanities are gaily colored and
the most efective come in several
shades of green and are made of
leafy vegetables."
Make-up, too, Miss Clow insists, is
most satisfactory when it comes
from the grocery store. Vanishing
cream comes in quart bottles and is
called milk. It not only helps the
skin, but brings relief to tired bodies
strength to the bones, and makes
firm white teeth and ruby lips.

Effort Started to Make Party
Strictly Upperclassmen
Affair
Changing of the date v he

26 to March 2 was announced Tues
day by Frederick Daly, chairman of
the prom committee. Announcement
that the prom would be held in the
Scottish Rite temple with the selec
tion of the prom girl again this year
as the outstanding feature of the
party wa salso made.
The date for the dance was
changed because of the large num
ber of formal parties already sched
uled for February 25 and also so that
the Scottish Rite temple could be
secured for the ball. The Junior
Senior prom is one of the three ma
jor university formal parties, the
others being the Military ball and
the Pan-Hellenic ball. The Junior
Senior prom will mark the official
closing of the university formal sea

by the Junior-Senior prom commit
tee in their opening meeting a week
ago, Mr. Daly announced Tuesday
in giving out plans for the party. In
order to place the prom back on the
campus the party was not limited last
year. Mr. Daly stated that the in
tention was to limit it in an attempt
to make it a strictly junior-senior
affair, the real purpose of a junior-
senior prom, which was formerly the
custom here as elsewhere. A second
meeting of the Junior-Senior prom
committee will be held Thursday
evening to conclude initial prepara
tions for the party.

a letter to faculty members to be

AWGWAN HAS
MANY CARTOONS
"Traditions' Number of
Monthly Humorous Maga
zine Goes on Sale Today
KEZER PRAISES ART WORK
Featuring the largest number of
cartoons published in one issue in
Awgwan history, the "Traditions"
number of Nebraska's monthly stu
dent humor magazine went on the
press Tuesday. It will go on sale at
2 o'clock today. Block subscriptions
will be delivered to the subscribing
houses this evening and other local
subscribers may get their copies by
presenting their receipts at the Col
lege Book store.
Eighteen cartoons and an attrac
tive two-color cover done in red and
black by James Pickering arc loaded
into the twenty-eight paes of the
November number. The art work of
the second issue, according to Mun
ro Kezer, editor of the Awgwan, is
far superior to that of the first is
sue. Critics who have read advance
proof on the "Traditions" number
say that it comes up to all that was
expected of the Awgwan after the
first issue.
"Honeymoon" Is Feature
Work of Margaret Emery, former
Northwestern artist, whose drawing
and poem, "The Co-Ed" attracted
favorable attention in the October
issu, occupies a full page with a
drawing and poem, "Honeymoon",
which follows the fly-leaf drawing
by James Pickering. Miss Emery has
also furnished an attractive reminis
cence of summer traditions with a
bit of verse, "Infatuation! and a
drawing accompanying.
The parody on the Sherlock Hol
mes stories which is the lead-off
story of the month is illustrated by
George A. Koehnke with a startling
study in light and shadow. Instruc
tions to graduates on buying foot
ball tickets and to freshmen students
on the university's dating traditions
are other features.
Alan Klein, Tom McCoy, and
Charles Senter complete the list of
staff artists whose drawings liveh up
the pages of this Awgwan number.
Klein and McCoy were both contrib
utors to the first issue and reappear
with some live art work. Senter is
a new contributor, making his ap
pearance with a fancy background
sketch on sour milk.
Dr. Howe to Engage in
Botany Research Here
Dr. Thomas D. Howe, who has
been teaching for the past two years
at James Milleton University in New
York, expects to return to Nebraska
about the first of December in order

Dr. Howe received both his Bach

where he was awarded his Doctor's
degree.

Forty faculty women have enrolled

Indications Point To A Decided
Decrease in Upperclassmen Vanity
More than a thousand juniors and
seniors had their pictures taken last
year to appear in the class sections
of the Cornhusker. Alas, such is not
the case this yearl But two days
are left until November 10 when all
upperclassmen must have had thcii
pictures taken, and there are five
hundred who haven't even desig
nated their intentions of having
their photograph sitting.

els be sent to them on this date and
blank panels cannot be sent- Th

SEND-OFF RALLY
SCHEDULED FOR
THIS AFTERNOON
Students to Parade from Social
Sciences to Burlington
Station
NEBRASKA SPIRIT REVIVES
Short Pre-rally and Classroom
Singing Planned for
This Morning
Nebraska's football squad will
leave for Pittsburgh this afternoon
with a parade and rally send-off
from the Burlington station. The
rally will start at 4 o'clock in front
of Social Sciences, and the pep-procession
will be formed immediately.
Expectations are high for this
rally. The send-off that the Husker
team received on its departure for
Missouri should be eclipsed by this
rally, in the opinion of the rally
committee, because of the greater
national importance of the grid bat
tle with Pittsburgh. Being an east
ern team, Pittsburgh is expected to
show up certain stellar Cornhuskers
as promising Ail-American material.
Impromptu Speeches Planned
Nebraska students will parade to
the Burlington station, led by the
band, cheer leaders, Corn Cobs and
Tassels. The parade to the Missouri
send-off filled the street for over a
block, and an estimate of the size
of this Pittsburgh rally may be
drawn from that. A few short im
promptu speeches will be given by,
team members at the train. The ral
lying students will be given the op
portunity to call for their own
speakers.

Juniors and seniors must have
