plays we have ever produced," de
clared Ray Ramsay, business man
ager of the University Players,
after the performance last night.
"From hte standpoint of finance,
interest, t alent and co-operation,"

done the last few seasons."
A mystery story with an under

STADIUMT1CKE IS ARE
Biggest Out-State Interest
Is Shown in Nebraska
Missouri Game
MANY GOOD SEATS LEFT
With Nebraska's first Intersec
tlonal football game still three
weeks away requests for reserva
tions have been coming In to the
ticket office with increased rapid
ity. The Missouri-Nebraska game
seems to be the largest drawing
card, according to advanced ticket
sales reports.
"I do not hesitate to say that the
entire stadium will be sold out for
the Nebraska-Missouri game and it
will be the first time that it has
been sold out entirely since the last
Nebraska-Notre Dame game," ven
tured John K. Selleck, director of
student activities.
Seats Still Available.
There are still plenty of seats
left for all home games but they
are going fast. Seats can s'.ill be
obtained In both the east and west
balconies on the 50 yard line as few
tickets have yet been taken In the
balcony. On the east side there are
seats left on each side of the 20-
yard line and on the went side
there are seats on each slue or the
30-yard line.
The Nebraska-Pittsburg game is
also drawing a great dt-al of out
state Interest and many tickets for
the game have been sold. Seats
are still available on both sides
with 50-yard line seats still avail
able in the balconies. The center
section on the west side is nearly
sold out but some good seats are
still available.
Syracuse is also running strong
and most of the choice seats have
already been spoken for. Mr. Stl
leck. however, estimates that there
are still about thirteen or fourteen
thousand seats left for this game,
so prospective buyers should not
have difficulty in getting desirable
seats.

Transportation To Places
Of Worship Furnished
By Traction Co.
A new idea in the form of trans
portation to church was tried out
and proven practical last Sunday.
Through the' cooperation of the
Lincoln Bus Lines and Traction
company, special church busses
were run throughout the city for
the accommodation of students
finding It difficult to attend church
because of the distance to be
covered.
This Idea may be attributed to
Miss Shadholt, a member of the
senior class of the university, who
has seen the plan used in Cali

Curtain on First Varsity?
Dance Will Go up at
Coliseum on Saturday,
October 13
Two thousand balloons floating
down over two thousand dancing
students. A racket reminiscent of
spring afternoons In Chicago as
fraternity pins are stuck in tne
balloons. Whoops and howls so
characteristic of all parties at
Nebraska. First string orchestras
manufacturing pleasing, pleading
dance music. The curtain has
gone up on the first Varsity Party
of the 1928 season. The Fall

Take your date book in hand
and mark a large circle around
October 13. The largeness of the
circle designates what a huge time
everyone ought to have at such a
party as the Fall Frolic.
Word has come in that the mi
Gamma Delta fraternity and Sigma
Chi fraternity are holding parties
of their own on October 13 for the
purpose of assembling so that all
may ride to the Coliseum in San

They will be met at the door by
members of the reception com

avoid a mob scene.

Approval on Nebraska
Church Tradition
BULLETINS ARE POSTED
Next Sunday, October 7, has
been designated as University
Sunday. On this day each church
plans special services for the stu
dents, and extends a hearty wel
come to all. University Sunday
has been a tradition at the Univer
sity of Nebraska for the past sev
eral years.
"This Invitation to the Etud
enta of all rliglous connec
tions, has my hearty approval.
I shall be greatly pleased If the
movement results In a marked
Increase In attendance at all
places of worship. This Is one
of the fine customs that has
well become an All-University
tradition, apd every student Is
urged to help make it such."
(Signed) E. A. Burnett,
Chancellor.
In past years, post cards have
been sent to all students of the
University, invit.' th -m tn attend
their church on Univer'?, Sunday.
However, this year posters are to
be placed on the bulletin boards
in the varloui buildings, and invi
tations are t. be sent through the

Definite plans are being made
by each church to have the service
for next Sunday especially Inter
esting to the university students.
Although as yet no Information on
the plans has been given out, It
will be announced later.
Because of the early date of All
University Sunday this year, it is
not to be made an affiliation day.

s'udenta a chance to find a church
home for the school year. Later,
a day will be set aside by the in
dividual churches when the stud
ents will have the chance to unite
with their own church.
The tradition of University Sun
day Is always long remembered by
the students. The University this
year Is cooperating with the
churches as much as possible to
make October 7 the best Univer
sity Sunday ever held.
