Trout, chairman of the committee
on fraternity and sorority house
decorations. Homecoming will open '
Friday night with a Riant rally at
the drill field north of Social

permanent possession of the first
cup offered. The fraternity win
ning the new cup three consecu

jear's sorority trophy, will again
enter the contest. Sigma Phi Kp
silon, four times winner of the

I'niversity of Missouri and the;
Cornhuskers is expected to draw I

years and it Is expected that many
of the alumni will come back
"home" to see Nebraska, take the
tiger.

INNOCENTS IN CHARGE
"Tigers Huskers Who Win and
Lose Gloriously" is the inscription
that will be brazed on a bronze
plate to be fastened to the stand-
aid of the Missouri-Nebraska bell.
The Innocents society made this
announcement yesterday afternoon
and have ordered the plate from
an art shop in New York City.
The standard, which is being
made under the supervision of
Coach Henry F. Schulte, is nearly
completed and the bell will be fas
tened to its permanent holder
within the next two days. The
bronze plate will be received be
fore the Missouri-Nebraska game
Saturday so that it will be com
plete as a tiupli.v to the It tor.
While the Missouri Tigers and
t he Cornhuskers are warming up
on the field preparatory to what
is considered the greatest battle
of the season, the bell will be car
ried out and presented to a com
mittee of Missouri students, headed
by Frank t). Knight, president of
the Missouri Student Government
association. The bell will be taken
to the Missouri side of the field
and will remain there throughout
the game. After the final whistle
the bell will again be presented,
either to Missouri again or to Ne
braska. The Innocents society, in charge
of the bell tradition, are making
many changes In the bell's appear
ance. It was first planned that
the bell should be displayed In
front of Social Sciences this week,
but this idea will not be carried
out. The first appearance of the
bell on the campus will be immed
iately before the game Saturday
when Missouri will receive it in
honor of their three-year-victory re
cord over Nebraska.

Smith and Hoover Clubs to Fight It
Out in Heated Argument at Nebraska
The greatest political storm InO
the history of the University of
Nebraska is fast gathering. From
one side comes the fierce war-cry
of "Who but Hoover and from
the other side we hear the notes
of "Fast. Side-West Fide, All
around the Town;" "Smith" or
"Hoover" Is the password for any
thing now, and woe to the man or
woman who makes a mistake!
But this threatening war, famine,
or whatever it Is, must come to
a head sometime. Steps have al
ready been taken to bring all these
troubles to a complete and un
questionable close. After the final
event is over, there will never
more be doubt in the minds of the
university students as to who ia
the only, gifted, and logical .man
for president of the United States
This decisive event will be in
the form of a debate to be held
Thursday, November. 1, by mem
bers of the Hoover-Curtis club,
and members of the Al Smith
club. Powerful combines of three
students for each side will be
formed. These-martyrs-for-the-cause
-of-politlcs will have ten minutes
apiece to disprove their opponents
statements and, if they have time,
to make a few for their own party.
In order to give these warriors
enough material to fight upon, the
question has been unlimited as
long as it deals with political poli
cies or candidates of the two
parties.
Word conies from the camp of
Cody's hearty Tigers that their vic
tory is certain. Already plans have
been made for a gala celebration
when their victory is announced.
But also from Matsehullet's side
lines we hear only boasts of an
overwhelming score in the Ele

INTRAllRALSLATE
v
DIRECTED BY LEWIS
New Point Scoring Table
For All Athletics
To Be Issued
NEW RULES INSERTED
Intra-mural sports will again be
under the direction of Jimmy
! Lewis, assistant director of intra-
rmurals, according to an announce
ment made by the athletic office
yesterday.
Herbert Gish. director of inter
collegiate athletics, has been given
the additional title of director of
i Intramural athletics, by action of
the board of regeuts, and he will
have supervision of this branch of
sports.
A point scoring table for all the
sports will be issued In a few days
from the athletic office, with the
rules and regulations affecting
! intra-mural athletics. All rules
and regulations of last year will
i be carried over with a few addi
1 1 ioirkl provisions.
I The most Important of the new-
rules is as follows: "Any student
in the University who competes on
any team outside of the University
during the school year shall be
ineligible to represent his frater
nity in intra-mural athletics in the
sport in which he participates on
a non-University team.
This rule covers any non-university
competition, and specifically
city league teams. "The reason for
this ruling, Mr. Gih explained, is
to prevent a student from compet
ing too much in any sport, and
especially basket ball. It has been
found that many men have been
playing city league, fraternity, and
possibly freshmen basket ball all
at the same time, and this hurts
the athletes' scholastic standing
materially. This has caused the in
eligibility of several likely varsity
candidates for basket ball.

The indomitable spirit that is Nebraska's has begun to
gather its forces for Saturday's game. Reminiscent of the
glories of Cornhusker football from the days of Benedict

RallyTodaYfs
Cornhusker Cry
For Homecoming
"Rally!" is the Cornhusker battle
cry on the eve of the frreat Missouri-Nebraska
game. As a matter
of fact the fighting Huskers will
have to rally to "Beat Mizzou".
Speaking of football we read some
v. here ihat just because you talk
football to a tirst-date is no sign
you can go Into a huddle.
Cornhusker spirit is rising, but it
has quite a lot of room for
growth. Class rallies aren't as
peppy as they might be. The Corn
Cobs are trying hard, but it's not
pleasant to be singing a rather
sour solo when the instructor
conies in. ....
The Missouri-Nebraska game
may not be as important to you as
your Poli Scl final or a shiny nose,
but 'hink it over. Drop your com
pact and jell- It will surprise you.
It doesn't hurt a bit.
There shouldn't be a quiet be
ginning for any class today or to-
' morrow. Your instructors have
! been in the school for quite aw hile,
probably, and they expect racket
to meet them when they plant the
! class book on the mahogany desk
j this morning or t Ills afternoon.
; Don't disappoint them,
j The Corn Cobs will have a house
1 to house r'Ulv for sororities on Fri
day evening. Those sororities who
donated apples, doughnuis etc., to
the cause of hungry Corn Cobs
didn't hurt their standing any. It's
no snap to yell the old head off
from 5:15 until ":o0 o'clock on an
empty stomach. Give the Cobs a
little house how about it?
STAMP PROFITS AID
A. W. S. Board Sponsoring
Annual Sale of Home

the campus to help students, and
seniors particularly, to decide
what they wisli to do when they
get out of school.
The A. W. S. board annually
sponsors the sale of the stamps,
as well as Vocational Week, which
depends on the success of the

Stamps have been placed in all

these sales is being checked in

an inch square with a big red N
on white background, and in
smaller type on the red are printed

STUDENTS
TO BUY BAND TICKETS
Fick's Quadrangle Orchestra
Is Rated as One of Best,
To Play Saturday
BUSINESS MEN SUPPORT
Ticket sales for the R. (). T. C.
band benefit hall, to be held Sat
urday night in the Coliseum,
showed a little improvement. Wed
nesday night, although the student
body has yet failed to buy what
even amounts to a good start
towards its quota.
The bulk of the tickets sold thus
far have been purchased by busi
ness men, but unless the students
of the University of Nebraska buv
their quota of pasteboards, the
cadet band will stay home from
West Point.
Although there have heen rumors
about the campus that the band
ball is being held Friday night at
the Lincoln hotel, the band execu
tive committee wishes ii to be
made clar that the one and only
band ball is Saturday night, Octo
ber 27, in the Coliseum.
Hir Famous Orchestra.
Herb Fick's Missouri Quadrangle
orchestra, which has heen con
tracted to play the hall. Is perhaps
the most widely known collegiate
orchestra in the Middle West.
Five versatile entertainers will
provide amusement for dancers
who "take time out." Fick's Col
legians are beyond a doubt one of
the best dance bands to ever play
an engagement in Lincoln, and
any student buying a ticket to the
hand ball Is assured of getting his
full dollar's worth.
Admission cards to the ball may
be bought from any member of the
R. O. T. C. band.
A mammoth delegation of Mis
souri football fans Is expected at
the band party, in view of the fact
that it is being held the same day
as the Missouri-Nebraska kame.
