his coaching staff are turning their
attention to the difficult pigskin

meet the Huskers on the Memorial

-iThe Orange eleven was downed
"last season at Lincoln but are com

Cornhusker fans are now awalt
Int the first game on the Husker
schedule that plunges the Ne

hardest schedule in recent years,
Syracuse with one of the best com

by the most outstanding football

performance of the Husker oppon

hae a tough Job to down the
teams on the 1928 schedule.
Taking a look in at Syracuse,
we find that the Orange eleven
during the past two weeks has
been cutting down their gridiron
opponents like weeds. Johns Hop

Dearest Iiad:
No, I don't want a new dress, and
I have finally decided -hat my last,
winter's coonskln will no me an
other year, but. I was Just think
ing of oh, lots of things and so
1 decided to dash off a few syl
lables. I'm so used 'o mouosyl
lables, "Yes ma'am" and "no
ma'am," that I appreciate the
chance to rattle orf at length.
Oh, I tell you, Dad. I appreciate
lots of things about you now,
things I used to think your vices
now' are virtues when contrasted
with the same things I have to con
tend with down here. For instance,
I URed to raise a rumpus when you
told me that two o'clock was too
late for me to get In, but you're ai:
angel, Dad, compared with these
upperclassmen who take away your
dates for a whole week-end It'
you're only teu minutes later than
the limit. 12:1.-..
But, as to my imiuediite reason
for writing, (and I can ee you say
"Now it's coining"), I want io sen
you aud Mother in the worst way
and the moBt wonderful opportun
ity for accomplishing that and at
the same time seeing some of the
real university activities I'm inter
ested In has arisen, and leally. you
Just must take advantage of It.
Saturday is designated as Uni
versity Dad's Day, and the whole
gang are expecting ihelr Dads
down here for the Syracuse game
which Is to follow a luncheon given
In honor of the Dad's. You've al
ways said I didn't know anything
about football, but if you'll only
come down here, you'll find that I
can argue on any technicality of
the game; though I won't say how
intelligently.
There is to be a reserved section
In the stadium for all of you fath
ers and so the whole bunch of you
can discuss how you would havo
made that play back in the old
days. You'll see some mighty
flashy bits of playing, and I know
you'll agree with me that It's par
of every girl's education to go to a
co-ed school after she's had a year
In a girl's school.
I really must go and itudy. You
needn't laugh, because we can't
have dates on week nights, and so
I really am going to study. Never
mind. Father darling, you'll be
proud of your daughter some day,
because these upperclassmen cer
tainly make you study.

Suggestion of Nine Weeks
Of Instruction Awaits
Regents' Action
PLAN SINGLE SESSION
Board's Official Acceptance
At Its Next Meeting
Is Probable
Proposal that the 1929 summer
session of the University of Ne
braska be one term of nine weeks
instead of two terms of six weeks
as heretofore was made by the Uni
versity Senate and official accept
ance by the Hoard of Itegents at
Its next meeting is probable.
The opening date lor summer
school will be June 12, with regis
tration on June 10 and 11. The
nine week.? term will be completed
August 8 with final examinations.
Several Factors Enter In
The change has been talked of for
some time, due to several factors.
Nebraska will be following the lead
of some other schools as in the
summer of 1927 the universities of
Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, North
western, Oklahoma, Indiana and
Wisconsin had one-term sessions
of longer than six weeks.
One of the important reasons for
the change was that it is no longer
necessary for two summer terms to
supply teachers to schools in the
state. A "saturation point" has
been reached, according to Director
R. D. Moritz, and the number of
positions is less than the number of
teachers available.
Begin Too Early
With two six weeks terms, sum
mer school must necessarily begin
a week and In some cases two
weeks In advance of the closing of
some schools in the spring. This
was evidenced by the fact that 107
students registered during the sec
ond and third weeks of the first
summer term in 1927. Ordinarily,
two six weeks terms would1 also
carry the summer session too near
to the opening ot public schools in
the fall.
It will still be possible for gradu
ate students to complete their
academic requirements by attend
ance of three summer terms, as
they will be allowed to carry ten
credit hours each term and the
ratio of time spent in school will be
the same as previously.
Undergraduates will be able to
complete the regular four-year
course In four summers and three
regular terms. Formerly it was
three summers and tbree regular
terms, but the total time spent In
summer sessions remains the Bame.
Longer Term More Suitable
The nine weeks term is more
suitable to university facilities, Di
rector Moritz explained. In the
case of the College of Law and the
department of mechanical en
gineering It was necessary to ex
tend their summer work to eight
weeks In spite of the fact that the
rest, of the university offered
courses in six weeks.
liepartment heads prefer that all
graduate work be done while they
are present. This will be helped to
some extent by the single term.
Technically, the nine weeks term
Is preferable because the number
of class meetings during the sum
mer will be equal to that of the
regular term, whereas the six
weeks term lacked three Instruc
tional hours for each credit hour.
It was pointed out that the nine
weeks term lends Itself better to
three and five hour courses.

the scene of the sixth annual Dad's
day luDcheon. Lunch w-as served
to 335 Dads and sons and quite a

Giant Rally Is Scheduled
For Friday Evening at
Field House
DADS WILL BE GUESTS
True Nebraska Spirit Will
Be Exhibited Before
Visiting Parents
The Nebraska student body will
have an opportunity to extend a
rousing welcome to the Syracuse
team and to the visiting Corn
husker Dads, Friday evening, when
the far lamed Cornhusker spirit
will continue on its way to a vic
torious football season, at the
Coliseum preceding the Syracuse
Nebraska game, and Dad's Day.
The pep meeting will open at the
field house with a short program,
from which everyone will march to
the Lincoln hotel where the Orange
team will be quartered, there to ex
tend the visiting football players a
true Cornhusker welcome In appre
ciation of their twelve-hundred mile
journey to meet the Scarlet and
Cream in their annual battle.
Parade Through Streets
The Corn Cobs and Tassels,
men's and women's pep organiza
tions, together with the university
band, will lead the parade through
the downtown streets to the hotel.
Members of the Syracuse team will
be introduced to the student body
and it is the plan of the rally com
mittee to have a few words from
the eastern coach.
It is the hope of those in charge
of the "noise party" to attract a
crowd and create a bedlam of sound
that will be reminiscent of the true
Cornhusker spirit that has carried
Nebraska to victory In important
i interseciional games. The strength
! of the Syracuse eleven has been
i touted by eastern sport w riters as
! one of the best in the east and it
is up to the Nebraska student body
! to rally the team to victory In a
j great exhibition of student enthu
siasm.
Hard Schedule Ahead
.Dope hag it that the Nebraska
schedule is one of the biggest and
hardest in the country and the
students are expected to show their
enthusiasm and fight for a victori
ous season.
Visiting Dad's, who will be in
Lincoln Friday evening, are invited
to attend and witness the Nebraska
pep in one of its biggest sessions of
the year.
The rally will start promptly at
7 o'clock at the Coliseum where a
short program has been arranged

dent Activities office and exchange
them for a seat In another section
so that each son or daughter may
be with his or her dad. Tickets fn
the rooters' section, however, can
not be exchanged because of the
difficulty In making up the section
If there are absentees.

A REAL WELCOi
ORANGEMEN
John Asks Dad
To Be With Him
Next Saturday
Lincoln, Nebraska,
October 16. 1928.
Dear. Dad :
Don't take the shock too haid.
Dad, but for once I'm not going to
ask for any money. I suppose you
are wondering whether it is worth
the sacrifice and I sometimes won
der myself.
I've been down here at school
only a month, but. gosh, it seems
like years since 1 stuck my feet un
der the old dinner table. It's
pretty tough sleddln' right now be
cause we are having quarterly ex
ams. Kveryone is "hitting the
books," as they call It here, to get
ready for these exams. I hope I
can get some decent grades.
But what I wanted to write to
you principally (for was to tell you
about an annual event they are
having here Saturday. All the fel
lows are Inviting their dads down
for Dad's Day. The University has
designated this day for the event.
Al noon we can go to the big
luncheon which Is being given for
the dads. There will be some real
good speakers at this banquet and
among them will be Governor Mc
Mullen. In the afternoon Nebras
ka Is playing a football game with
Syracuse university. You know,
Dad, you always did say you want
ed to see the football team. And
believe me, we've got a humdinger
this year.
Syracuse has a wonderful team
too and it should be a great game.
We will have a special reserved
section in the stadium just for stu
dents and their fathers. And don't
forget Mother. Bring her along,
too. She will enjoy the spectacle
if not the game and we can have a
good time all by ourselves in the
evening.
I hope you can come because I
don't want to he alone that day
when everybody else is with his
dad. I have some dandy room
mates and I know you would en
joy meeting them and their fathers
for they will be down, too.
Now, Dad. if by hook or crook,
you and Mother can get in the car
and come down Saturday, please do
It.
Give mother my thanks for the
cake that she sent.
Your sou.
John.

LUNCHEON IS PLANNED
Prominent Speakers Will
Give Short Talks at
Noon Meeting
Dad's Day Is next Saturday, Octo
ber 20, the day of the Syracuse
Nebraska football game. Arrange
ments have been completed, and
include a Dad's Day luncheon at
the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce,
Satulda noon, as well as the
Syracuse football game.
Gov. Adam Mc.Mullen, R. E.
Campbell, president of the Cham
ber of Commerce, Chancellor E. A.
Burnett, and Coach Schulte will
give short talks at the luncheon
Saturday noon. The Corn Cobs will
provide some peppy entertainment,
but the program will not last long,
so that the football game may be
attended on time.
In order to let the Dads and stu
dents sit together at the game, a
special section in the stadium has
been reserved. Student tickets
may be exchanged at Latsch Broth
ers for seats in the Dad's section.
Fraternity Program Planned
Tickets for the luncheon were
put on sale Monday night by the
Corn Cobs. Fraternity and Sorority
Dad's Day programs will be held
Saturday evening so that all the
fathers may attend the luncheon at
the Chamber of Commerce.
"Five thousand invitations have
been sent to the Dads, and it is
hoped that all will be able to
come," said Gordon Hedges, who is
in charge of Dad's Day this year.
Today's iesue of The Daily Ne
braskan is "Dad's issue." Copies
are to be sent to each Dad, so that
he can see what the students of
the University are doing in their
class and activity work. In this
way the fathers can learn some
thing more of "Dear Old Nebraska
U."
Dad's day has been a tradition in
th University of Nebraska since
1922 when the first father's day
was held. The sororities and fra
ternities entertain their fathers in
the evening. The date for Dad's
Day is always picked for a day
when a good game of football will
be played.
Every Cornhusker Dad is heart
ily welcomed and is expected to
come if possible. Daughters and
sons unite in entertaining their
dads at the luncheon and at the
football game in the afternoon.
Question Arises
Over Location of
Traditional Bell
What hag become of the Delt-Phl
Pelt bell that received so much at
tention and publicity last winter?
With a clamor and a battle it made
it presence on the Nebraska cam
pus telt, but who has it now?
Since the battle royal at the Lin
coln hotel during the Phi Dflt ban
quet It has not been heard of. At
that time it remained In the pos
session of Phi Delia Theta. Has
Delta Tail Delta given up the tradi
tional Hnd significant trophy to
their one-time boarding-mates, the
Phi Ielis?
Rumor after rumor has Invaded
the campus regarding the bell. At
one time It was the popular opin
ion that the bell had been taken
from University hall. That suppo
sition received negative comments,
and as a result oaly a few of the
"old men" of each fraternity know
the true facts of the bell tradition.
A remarkable history must be
connected to the bell, for in the
past few years numerous battles
and out-wiulngs have mored the
bell back and forth from PM Delta
Theia to Delta Tau Delta.
Another Battle Predict
Considering the notoriety of tha
disputed bell it is strange that so
few people have actually seen It,
and that lately ii has not been
heard of. Some persons predict
another scramble similar to the
eventful one in the Lincoln hotel
when tables were upturned and
dishes broken generously.
Yesterday a report reached the
offic "f The Dally Nebraskan that
the bell would make Its appearance
on the campus soon in an unuBual
way. Interest Is stirred up once
more. Indications point to a trans
fer of the bell from the Phi Delta
Theta house to the Delt house, If
the Phi Delta still hold the treas
ured Iron trophy.
But no one knows that the Pbi
Delts have It: perhaps both frater
nities need to take an Inventory of
the "bell room" and find out if it
Is resting peacefully there, or in the
camp of the friendly-enemy.
