THAT CERTAIN FEELING
All eyes will be turned this evening toward the
Coliseum where Nebraska's football squad will be en
tertained by the men of the school and a 1928 cap
tain for the Cornhuskers is in the offing.
This Cornhusker banquet is one tradition at Ne
braska which IS a tradition. All kinds of students go,
from the football cynic to the "bonfire boys". Fresh
men rub elbows with seniors; fraternity and class feel
ings are forgotten when football men, inspired by
their service for Nebraska, cast a spell over the huge
audience, until coughs are noticeable and the clearing
of throats is in jrder. Then the charm is broken the
toastmaster makes a "crack" at Presnell, and suddenly
the silence of the great hall is rocked with laughter.
Finally the crowd becomes uneasy. Whispering is
common, and when the football captain rises with a
pigskin in his hand, he does not have to call for silence,
A few words, words of appreciation, reflection, and
then some regret. Then his face brightens, he throws
the ball, and hundreds of men scramble to their feet
to see the new captain. ;
What is there about such a gathering of young
Twn, united with a common bond Nebraska which
makes them forget their everyday happenings, and
spend a dinner hour in fellowship, laughter, suspense,
and understanding?
It is Nebraska spirit!
Wednesday morning Mr. J. M. F. accused this
paper of prejudice in writing up the Sigma Alpha Mu
Farm House basketball game, the score of which was
12 to 1. He contended it was a close game although
the report termed it a "terrific drubbing".
Now, we notice that Sigma Alpha Mu forfeits a
game to Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Why, Mr. J. M. F., don't
you get your team to play another game to show this
hidden strength which scores alone fail to uncover?

THE STUDENTS SPEAK
The Inter-fraternity Council last night approved
a definite program which its members believed would
remedy the student automobile situation which the
Board of Regents recently indicated would be subject
to control in the near future.
Serious consideration has been given the auto
mobile matter by the council. On the surface, their
recommendations arpear comprehensive. It js most
gratifying to see concrete, practical recommendations
for relief of the situation coming from the student
body itself.
If the Board of Regent3 can co-operate with the
students in working out methods of eliminating evils
existing in the use of student cars, the possibilities of
securing reasonable and satisfactory rules will be
greatly augmented. Self -established rules will always be
more readily followed than superimposed ones.
. Through the activity of the Inter-fraternity Coun
cil, the Regents will have definite student proposals
before them. If the Board is sincere in its attempt to
work out a rational solution for the automobile prob-

Twenty-one two sixty-three four thousand and
four hike! Bread and Butter, our AU-American backs,
will star tonight at the Coliseum. Everybody out for
the Cornhusker banquet and bring your armour for
the biscuits will fly high and far.
K
Gurruls! Aren't you sorry you ain't he-men so
you could see Claire Sloan up on the stage tonight?
Don't you adore him? That hearty smile? Those lovely
teeth? Ahhhhhh, those handsome Pi Kap athletes!
Zuver great big heart breaker! I'll bet he'll blush
when he sees this I'll buy him a coke the next time
I see him stacked over at the Moon.

All-Sorority Football Team
This team will be announced within the next few
days. The writer wishes to make it clear that no poll
tical influence will enter into the selection. Despite
the popular idea of a football line this team will be
composed of brains rather than brawn. I have ever fav
ored a fast, heady team heavy girls don't get around
quick enough. So watch this column and girls if you
don't make it, come back next year and get right in
and fight!
K
Wonder who will receive Jug Brown's last forward
pass? And 1 suppose you are wondering about the
same thing. And while we're wondering lets do some
figuring. And while we're figuring, let's try and see
how many biscuits we can throw at the toastmaster.
The first direct hit gets my pie. '
K
Now 5s our chance to see how the boys act when
they are away from home. Don't watch them too closely
maybe they will be nervous with so fhany eyes on
them they're not used to it
K
And if the speakers talk too long well, just hold
your seats and try to listen attentively no more till
the interfraternity banquet.
K
And if "Jug" Brown shrinking, blushing violet
gets embarassed try not to notice 5t, he's a nice boy,
and it's the last time he'll be up there.
K
Are those girl athalettes going to be there too?
If they are, and if they throw their knives around like
they throw their hockey sticks, I don't want to be at
their table and neither do you.
K
Is Johnny Everetts going to be there? Hope so
nothing footballish would be complete without her
everpresence.
K
Doc McLean will have his rubbing table nearby so
that if the Delts gorge themselves they can receive
instant first aid.

Last line: "We done our best for Nebraska."

ven ia numbered among the graduat
ing football players but with Rich
ards, Lucas, Munn, Ray and a large
delegation from the yearlings Coach
"Bunny" Oakes will also be well sup
plied with line material. Coach
Oakes had one of the best forward
walls in the Missouri Valley and Mid
dle West this season and the outlook
for next year is promising.
Janes Will Be Back
At the center of the line, Ted
James will be back to protect his old
position and Will be pushed by men
from the freshmen squad. Holm and
Nebraska has ever turned out.
Witt and McBride Coming
His running mate among the soph
omores will be "Dutch" Witte or
"Bud" McBride. Both of these backs
earned letters this year and during
their first season on the Nebraska
eleven they showed Husker fans that
they will be ready to replace the
graduating veterans. With the loss of
the two regular quarterbacks this
year, McBride may be drilled for
the pilot position on the 1928 Corn
husker eleven.
At the fullback position, Coach
Bearg will have George Farley, who
played his first year with the Var
sity this season. Oehlrich leaves the
fullback position vacant for next
year and it will be a tough job for
Farley to live up to the reputation
Oehlrich set at that position in the
Nebraska backfield.

Aldrich answered questions on ap
proaching the publisher, knowing the
markets, finding time to write, and
organizing material. She gave it as
her opinion that correspondence
schools were chiefly valuable dis
couraging thos who had no talent
to write but added that they were
probably of value to some people.
Mrs. Aldrich advised prospective
writers to secure a good background
in English, to get an idea for an ar
ticle and then "live with it," and
above all to cultivate the will to succeed.
McMullen will also be numbered I coaching staff will have 32 men back

During the first three games of
the 1927 season it was almost an im

tor Foster was the "Religion of a
Scientist." He spoke about the re
lation of prayer to the science of
physics. He stated that the kind of
universe in which we live as demon
strated by advanced physics is ex
actly the same as that expounded by
prayer. Contending that we should
try to assume a spirit of religion, he
appealed to he Ar'idnt to give their
hearts to the spirit of the campus
of Nebraska.
Doctor Foster was introduced by
Dorothy Nott, chairman of the

Athletic Board Has

been built by the work of this ath
letic board. They are the Memorial
etadium and the Coliseum. These
two athletic houses are rivaled by
few similar buildings in the Valley
conference. The stadium will seat
the largest crowd of any football
stadium in the conference.
The Coliseum offers ample seat
ing capacity for all Varsity basket
ball games and wrestling meets and
is the center of all intra-mural
sports. The high school basketball
tournament with more than two
hundred basketball teams entered,
was played off almost entirely on
the floor of the Coliseum last year.
Besides being the athletic center
of Nebraska during the winter
months, it has become a social gath
ering place for university functions
of all sorts.

murals, football furnishes the money
to maintain this program. Football
built the Coliseum in which about
234 inter-fraternity basketball
games will be played this year as
well as several other inter-fraternity
sports. The stadium was made pos-
sible by football, under which intra
mural track will be run off.
Due to football a large number of
sports have been added to the pro
gram this year. Some of the events
are water-polo, hare and hound, and
boxing, and according to the athletic
office it is probable that more will
be added before the season closes.
Another important event which
has been added to the intra-mural
program is a carnival copied after
Ohio and several other large col
leges. The carnival will be held
February 3 in the Coliseum. The en
tertainment for the earlier part of
the evening will consist of boxing,
wrestling and relay races, and a
dance is planned for the latter part
of the evening. ,
