SPEAKER TELLS OF
EUROPEAN PEOPLE
World Forum Luncheon Croup Hears
Mr. A. E. Sheldon Talk
Wednesday Nooa
"My Impressions of the People of
Europe," was discussed by Mrs. A.
E. Sheldon, past president of the Ne
braska Federation of Women's clubs,
in an address given at the World
Formn luncheon Wednesday noon.
Exhibiting a pleasing personality,
she told of her visit to Europe and
her contact with the people of Euro
pean countries.
"I have been very much interested
in World Forum. My interest and
faith in young people will go on, all
my life," stated Mrs. Sheldon in
opening her talk. She began to
speak more rapidly, concerning her
experiences and adventures in Eur
ope, her voice reaching the far corn
ers of the partly filled roon.
Speaker Changed Plans
"When I planned my trip I ex
pected to center my interest in the
history and art of the country, but
instead I become more interested in
the people. In the ten countries I
visited, I found that the people are
very much like ourselves. They
seem to be working hard and are
much in earnest about all the work
they undertake.
People are wrong and prejudiced
who bring back from abroad stories
about ugly feelings between the
United States and the European
countries. The people of Europe
have the most profound praise for
Colonel Lindbergh and they do not
held his greatness as an exception
to American youth. They were par

This announcement was made defin
itely, yesterday from the student ac
tivities office. Th.3 Junior League car
nival which has been- advertised for
that evening at the same place, has
been postponed until December 3. A
conflict in the schedule caused both

place, but plans for both parties have
been straightened out now.
No announcement has been made
yet by the Military Ball committee
as to the orchestra which will be used
for the ball. Jorgenson, general
chairman, said yesterday that every
effort is being made to get the best
orchestra the state affords. "Since it
is impossible to go out of the state

possible to get."

Sports Writer
Says Huskers
Big But Dumb
One Pittsburgh sports writer took
som dicrs at the Cornhusker foot
ball team after last week' game. In
his article, "Big But Dumb", Harry
Keck, sports editor of the Pittsburgh
Sun-TeleeraDh writes: "Big But
'Dumb' That's a harsh criticism to
make of college football players who
are playing their best for the glory
of their alma mater, but it tells the
story of Nebraska's defeat by Pitt
21-13, in one of the most thrilling
battles ever staged in Pittsburgh,
before an estimated crowd of 30,000
wildly excited fans in the stadium
Saturday afternoon.
"Pitt won the intersectional strug
gle because it was 'on' and played
heads-up, daring football all the way.
The big Nebraska team lost because
it was caught napping no less than
three times and then was found
wanting in the tackling line when the
Pitt runners got out in the open for
long runs to the goal line.
Huskers Fought Way Across
"Pitt made all its touchdowns on
spectacular dashes from deep in its
own territory. Nebraska bucked and
fought its way over the goal line
twice and had to work like Trojans
to' tally at alll Never was there a
prettier conflict of brain versus
brawn on e football field with brain
noxing out the verdict"
Another Pittsburgh paper adds:
"The Nebraska line deserves credit
for holding Pitt to no more than
three touchdown as after Pitt got
past the line they were gone for a
touchdown. McMullen was an ace
at right guard for the visitors and
Howell was a "howl" in the back-field."

EIGHTY WORKERS ATTEND
With hardly one-fifth of its goal
reached, the Y. M. C. A. started on
the second stage of its drive last
night A dinner was held at the
Grand hotel attended by about
eighty of the workers. A few short
speeches were given by Sherman
Welpton, campaign chairman, Ed

of the men they were scheduled to
see were urged to get more cards and
make renewed efforts to put the
drive across before Friday evening.
Mr. Welpton stated that if necessary,
the drive would be prolonged one
day, but that this would not be nec
essary, if all of the 130 workers in
the drive saw personally the men
they are supposed to see; The team
subscriptions were made, for the
most part, Tuesday evening. A few
scattered subscriptions from the
teams -are still coming ki, however.
All Groups Represented
Those in charge of the organiza
tion tried to select men for the drive
who represented all of the various
groups on the campus. Men were
selected for captains and for teams
from almost every fraternity house,
and several were selected from the
student body at large. "With all of
the men working their best, we
should be able to see almost every

OFFICIALS APPROVE
SOCIAL FRATERNITY
University Heads Express Belief
Influence for Education on
Campuses Is Sound
Chicago, Til., Nov. 16. A com'
plete dissection of the college social
fraternity was made here yesterday
by thirty-six presidents of state uni
versities and a decision was made
that, although it has many evils, the
fraternity overbears this by having
a great influence towards sound ed
ucation. The presidents gathered during
the annual meeting of the National
Association of State Universities.
It was found by them that guidance
towards fundamental truths is being
sought by college youths even
though much of his time is being
monopolized by the social side.
Alumni Teacher Advised
The appointment by each fratern
ity chapter of a leading young alum
nus to show the members how to
study was advised by Arthur R.
Priest, general secretary of Phi
Delta Theta. This man should be
recommended by the faculty and
paid by the chapter, he said.
