KNOW YOUR NEWS1 How many students realize that the Rhodes schol arships were created to promote international peace? How many students know that the Rhodes scholarships are made possible by a man who desired to bring" the English-speaking people together as a power to safe guard civilization? For that matter how many students in this or any other university know anything about international relations? Mr. Kerr, secretary of the Rhodes Scholarship foundation, stated at a convocation yesterday morning in the Temple that in thirty years the United States would control half the organized wealth of the world. Then he asked the question: how are we going to use this power? There is a question to ruminate upon. We who are students shall have to deal with that situation thirty years from now. Mr. Kerr admitted that the United States is today the greatest power in the world. A statement like that from an Englishman means something. If we are today the strongest nation in the world, what will our power be when we control half of the capital of the world? Mr. Kerr likened this country to aa elephant in a barn yard, all the little animals anxiously watching to see where the elephant will put his foot down next. Imagine the power and influence this country can wield. And how will we wield it?

And no one to blame. mosphere upon Nebraska's campus. Death and injury are both very often unavoidable, but tne penary is v heavy not to be pondered over by every student, re sulting in a watchword, "Caution." The driver may not even have been to blame, and the speed of the "Death Car" offered no clue to reck lessness, yet the appalling truth of a life lost when the motivation for the trip was undoubtedly school loyalty and pleasure will be remembered long into the history of our school. This accident may even serve as a nega tive force when the Board of Regents reaches its de cision as to whether student cars should be prohibited. Coupled with this tragedy is the fortunate escape of two persons when a car overturned and burned on the same highway. Experience is the saddest teacher in the world, but these depressing happenings should be the forerunner of careful driving. It is a mark of wisdom to be safe rather than sorry. Nebraska mourns the death of the seventeen-year-old girl who was ready to enter life. THE HEAVY-FOOTED INFANT In another column on this page an article from an Omaha newspaper, relating to the precious child of the campus, The Prairie Schooner, is reprinted. It contains some very sound criticism. For a year now the University literary magazine has been struggling along from one issue to another. The applause that has been accorded it is indeed re markable, but the subscriptions have been few in num ber. For thi3 state of affairs there is only one explana tion: the Prairie Schooner is not what it could be. Probably no one will deny that the effort is laudable and worth-while. Still, there are no scores f eager subscribers. The answer? The Prairie Schooner is dull. However much the literati declaim on the boobery of the bourgeoisie, who make up the largest part of the student body, it remains that things uninteresting into a strife far eclipsing the World War. In only one way can the rest citizens of this country wisely use the power which will be in their hands in the near future by studying more closely the problems of international relations. Nebraska stu dents can well profit by Mr. Kerr's remarks; some of them don't know what happens beyond the boundaries of Lancaster county.

In Other Columns THE PRAIRIE SCHOONER; LITERATURE OR BUST Number 4 of Volume I of the Prairie Schooner an outlet for literary work in the University of Ne braska and a medium for the publication of the finest"! writing of the prairie country" is on the stands. Somehow, the magazine can't shake off the curse of being a collection of stories, essays, and some truly mediocre verse, written as exercises in English compo sition. There is about the Prairie Schooner a depressing dustiness; and this is said with all good will, for Lord knows that Nebraska can ill afford to let the magazine die. It is after all, a brave attempt to do something, a striving for literary expression, a medium for thoughts that are, perhaps, too precious for oblivion.. But if the magazine could only have some gayety, some sprightliness, sjme audacity! If it could only be, at least, clever! Perhaps it may become so; and even as it is, we beg and implore all readers to buy it, and doubly beg and implore all Nebraskans to write for it. In the October number there are some charming and unusual numbers by Kwei Chen and Chen S. Yuan. Lowrey C Wimberly comes the nearest to something nimble in his article on "The Decline of the Ghost" Omaha World Herald. GIA11T PARADB WILL MOTE HEW YORK (Continued from Pag 1) the rally, to get an unusually large supply of torches, which will add to the effectivness of the parade. These torches will be delivered by the Corn Cobs Wednesday afternoon, prior to their house to house tour of soror- ( ities to urge attendance at the rally. Torchlight Parmde la Annual Event The greatest torchlight parade of Cornhusker history took place two years ago when Nebraska students welcomed Notre Dame, on the eve of the Thanksgiving game. Torch light processions preceding the Thanksgiving ame have become a tradition at Nebraska, and are con sidered commendable by visiting teams. The New York team which came to Lincoln last Thanksgiving stated that they received the heart iest welcome they had ever received anywhere, from the Nebraskans at that time. It is hoped that this torch light parade will culminate in a wel come which will impress the New York team in the same way. The goal for success in this year's pro cession is set at quailing the Notre Dame procession. The Thanksgiving game is An important inter-sectional contest so it is hoped that such a welcome will be staged. Short pre-rallies will be held in front of Social Sciences at 11 o'clock this morning and tomorrow morning. Tine Thanksgiving all-university con vocation will also include a short rally. The custom ef singing in classes which has been so success fully reestablished will be encour aged more than ever tomorrow. "We hope," stated a member of the rally committee, "that no class in the Uni versity of Nebraska will omit tSe Einfrmg of a Nebraska song before tiling up class work Wednesday morning."

The topic of the discussion was "Modern Trends in Art." Over two hundred artists and art patrons were in at tendance. Three of the most distin guished artists at the convention spoke on the afternoon program. They were: Oscar B. Jacobson, di rector of the college of fine arts at the University of Oklahoma; Birger Sandzen, of Bethany College, Linds borg, Kansas, who conducts a famed school of painting at Estes park each summer; and Ernst L. Blumenschein of Taos,- New Mexico, who first started the artist's colony there which is largely devoted to modernist art. Mod era Art Ia Explained Mr. Jacobson'said in explaining modern art: "Artists in our time are on the point of explaining our own age in the same maner as artists of all other ages have explained tbeir own." He said the th.ee fundamental causes which determine the charac ter of art are, occupations, great men and climate. He emphasized that the character of a country and its peo ple determined the sort of art pro duced. He cited the bleak moors and granite uplands of Scotland as in fluential upon Scotch art. Mr. Sandzen in his talk emphasized the old influences that are being re cognized in present -day art, showing that this was especially true of mod ern Scandinavian art. He mentioned prominent modernists whose work is influenced by that of older days. Mr. Blumenschein told of the Taos school of art. This school has had a strong influence on modem artists, stimulating and invigorating them. It was built -up by one after another going there, nnta la-st summer 75 at tended. These were largely artists who had won national recognition and the finest prizes in the country. Mr. Blumenschein said that the im portant factor in making modern art is design. It is important in painting as well aa in architecture. After these talks, four other ar tists and art instructors discussed the topic more informally. They were: Holmes Smith r? 1 rhingtoTj University, St. Louis; Leila Mechlin, secretary of the federation, HoyaH B. Farnum, member of the board of (Tjectors nd Professor Paul H.

EASTERN TEAU SEERS REVENGE (Continued from Page 1) On the- Nebraska field the Meehan crew suffered a .15 to 7 defeat by the Huskers. No Snrioua Injuries ia Husker Camp The big Scarlet team returned vic torious from the lair of the Kansas Aggie Wildcat and are in fine shape for the final game of the season. The injury column was not increased to any great extent from the Aggie game but numerous minor bruises kept the Nebraska team from a hard scrimmage last night Ray Randels, veteran tackle in the Husker wall had the foot injury he received in the Pitt game stirred up but will be back in fighting shape for the Meehan gridders Thanksgiving. Glenn Presnell called time out in the Aggie game for the first time this season on account of an injury to his back but the coaching staff is ex- pecting the thundering Cornhusker back to be in the thick of the battle Thursday. The Nebraska team since the de cisive beating they gave the Aggies are ready for the Violet eleven. Last night on stadium sod Coach Bearg sent his men through a light work out in punting, passing and signal drills. Today's practice will take on the aspect of the last intensive work out of the season. Wednesday after noon another light session will be held before the Turkey day battle. Coach Ia Satisfied With Team Nebraska's football mentor was well satisfied with the showing the Husker team made last week. Al though the defense refused to work properly in the opening half, the second half showed the real power of the Scarlet eleven. Captain "Jug" Brown playing in the role of half back displayed one of the greatest games of his football career at Ne braska. Two touchdowns were mark ed up fcr the Cornhusker captain be fore the final gun. Last Saturday Nebraska played its last game in the Missouri Valley and it was a victory. Next year the Hus kers will be playing in the Big Six and the mythical football crown will be a has-been. A definite champion will be settled with each team meet-' ing the other. The defeat of the Missouri Tigers by Kansas put the Nebraskans in a tie for first place in the Valley flag race. But Missouri plays one more conference game than Nebraska and should they turn in a win with their final cponent, Oklahoma, the title will be cinched with Nebraska in sec ond. The Sooners defeated Mizzou last year at Norman, and Thanksgiv ing a return engagement is played at Columbia. Presnell Continaes Driving Glenn Presnell, Husker backfield ace continued his powerful driving work of the season and was able to penetrate the Aggie line for large gains. Presnell still leads the pack in Valley scoring with a total of 60 points or ten tonchdowns in seven games. Howell is second in the Val ley scoring with 48 points, seven be ing touchdowns. ! Nebraska's record for 1927 is one of the greatest in years for a Corn husker eleven and the greatest re-; cord in Missouri Valley footbalL Al though Missouri stands in the sport light to win the title of champion, Nebraska presents one of the best scoring records in the country. In five Valley encounters on the gridiron the Huskers have amassed a total of 3 50 points and have held the oppos ing elevens to 19 points. Missouri's record is 53 points for five games and the Tiger opponents have been able to score 32 points. In Typewriter For Rent AD atandarl snakes special rate to stu dents lor luiic term.

Co. 1010 Q every Valley clash the Nebraska ele ven has outyarded and outdowned its oposing eleven. In three out of the five games Missouri has played the Henry eleven has been outdown ed. One of the threw was by the Hus kers when they suffered the 7 to 6 turnback at Columbia. Sport writers in the mid-west are conceding to Nebraska the title of the strongest eleven in the Missouri Valley and middle west. As a scoring machine the Nebraska eleven has well demonstrated its power, and as a defensive eleven also. In the first three encounters on the 1927 sched ule but three first downs were made through the Scarlet forward waU. The Scarlet and Cream gridiron eleven will close the 1927 football season on Memorial Stadium field Thursday afternoon in the intersec tional classic with New York. The entire Stadium will be sold out for the game and bjrtchers will probably have to be erected to accommodate the crowd. Frank Birch (Earlham) will ref eree the east-west game Thursday and H. E. Daugherty (Pittsburgh) umpire. tween the New York team and the Huskers. A Kosmet Klub rally-breakfast at the Idyl Hour will precede the show.
