T Deadline Date for Burlesque Productions Set for November First PLANS ARE KEPT 'MUM' The Kosmet Klub urges groups, i reanizailons. fraternities, sorori ties and individuals contemplating skits for the annual Thanksgiving morning show to enter manuscripts for these skiis at the Kosmet Klub rooms early next week. Deadline tor the entrance of Kkit manu scrints has been set for Thursday. November 1, at 7 o'clock. This year's show will be in the n.-itui-e of a review with a light plot running throughout the per formance. This should be kept in mind while planning 1he skits. Effort will be niai'e to keep tha show fas: moving and while no time limit has been set upou the skits, it will be well to keep them as condensed as possible. Kosmet Klub has a whole sack full of surprises in store for the Thanksgiving production but re frains from disclosing any of them until a later date. Since the morn ing matinee is scheduled to directly proceed the Kansas Aggies game, it is expected that the rally spirit will prevail. An announcement coming from I lean T. J. Thompson's office to the effect that freshmen aie eligible to perform with their respective fra terni'ies and sororities nhould prove added incentive to these groups planning skits for the show. II is stimulated, however, that fresh men taking part in these acts must have a minor rather than a major pari. Eligibility for these student requires a registration of at least twelve hours and no delinquencies. Combinations of fraternity and sorority skits will be accepted as well as those from organization combinations.

Cornhusker Clash With Tigers Will Be Attempt to Break Indian Sign History Shows Nebraska Out-' classed Opponents in Many Departments When Missouri and Nebraska clash on the stadium sod Saturday a three year record of supremacy will be uppermost in the minds of the players of both teams. Missouri j will attempt to extend that record to four years, and Nebraska will! attempt to break the jinx which is blamed for the three successive ; defeats of her most powerful j elevens. j In 1925. when Missouri j.ut tlie Indian sign on Nebraska, the score i was 9 to 6. Nebraska hopes ran high at the beginning; of the game when Mandery blocked a punt which was promptly taken pes session of by a scarlei-clad Corn husker. Ed Weir and Hrown car ried the ball across the line for Nebraska's only marker. 1-ater in the game, Missouri scored on a pass from Stuber lo Clark, and Whiteman added the point which brought the score up to 7. The Tigers possessed themselves of two points more by knocking down and falling on a Nebraska pass behind the Cornhusker line. Many Stars Shine In that game, I.ocke was the out standing offensive player, reeling off several long runs. Undennieyer and Studebaker, Tiger tackles, were in a large measure respon sible for the Husker defeat. The 91'6 combat, in the Memor ial Stadium, was a contrast be- rontlnurd nn Tagr 5. AFTER OLD MAN CGRNHl SKEK Yesterday it was my pleasure lo p stalking I'M .Man Cornhusker. I trailed hint from Twelfth and li at fin hi o'clock to Hessey hall, 1o Chemistry hall, and then to .An drews hall. At ten o'clock I visited him in front of Social Sciences. 1 was most deeply impressed; and. in the words of Shakespeare, do you know - "Some strange commotion Was in his brain; he bites his lip, and starts; Stops on a sudden, looks upon the ground Springs out inlo a fast gait ; then stops again. Strikes his breast hard .... in most si range post tires Ye Lave seen him set himself." 1 followed him 'o tin- Stadium field at four o'clock. I rum' there lie led me through ihe northwest entrance out onto Tenth si reel and pointing upward Inward the end of the Stadium, he said: "Yonder inscription is our heritage." Whereupon 1 read these words: "COURAGE; GENEROSITY ; FAIRNESS; HONOR: IN THESE ARE THE TRUE AWARDS OF SPORT." And there we joined hands, vowing that we would move lo newer heights in true sportsmanship. We took solemn oalh that even though feeling may run high, the referee decide against us, and things look black as night, uo truly loyal CoTihusker will pver be surpassed in Courage, Generosity, Fairness, and Honor.

Political Clubs Are Preoccupied With Rush Week No such rush week was ever be s-1 fore (staged al the I'niversity of Nebraska by 'any fraternity as is taking place on the campus now. Students are being pledged every hour of the day. Hoover-Curtis and Al Smith pledge-buttons are being flashed on coat lapels everywhere. A great campaign is being staged prior to the big political debate to be held November 1. On the campus, in the buildings, in the doorways, and even on the ft reels, the big fraternities of Smiili and Hoover are collecting ineii, and if possible, votes. The g !:, I debate that will mark the c(os.' of this rushing will be put on by members of the Al Smith and Hoover-Curtis clubs. The place for the battle has not yet been decided, but the amount of interest shown will influence Its ?ele."tion. Sororities Are Interested Even in sororities, politics Is the only subject for conversation.

ARE FULLY EXPLAINED Difficult Mizzou-Cornhusker Stunts Will Require Careful Study GENERAL RULES GIVEN Hirections for the cheering sec tion stunts to be used during the Vi7ou gat .e Saturday have been issued It is urgent that studeuts familiarize themselves with the stunts before the game to avoid confusion and to make the card chancing as faultless as possible. The two headllners for the sec tion that have been worked out are HFlI.O GK Al) and CORNHT'SK ER TWISTING THE TIGER'S TAIL. Last week the production of a dad and son shaking hands was the feature stunt of the after noon. The order of stunts will be: First, Hello Grads: second, Mis souri I'niversity; third and fourth, Cornhusker Twisting the Tiger's Tail, and fifth, Nebraska U. For stunt number one only red and white will be used as indi cated in the direction ticket. Red and black cards only will be used as Indicated on ihe ticket. In the third stunt, numbers three and four go together. The same colors will be used in most cases in numbers three and four, in which case your cards should remain stationary on the signal "change." "or those who have different colored cards, ar range them so that the color indi cated on number three will lace the west stands, on "cards up" and the color for number four on the opposite side so that on signal "change," the color for number four still shows. The last stunt will be indicated on the tickPt but the card held up should be the same as the color painted on your seat. This will be a "change" stunt. Only red and white cards will be used. General directions: Line up in rows directly behind the one in front of you. Take careful note of color of card to face out for the stunt to be exe cuted. One card of wrong color is very noticeable Do not anticipate the signal from the cheer leader to change but wait until he has counted "12 3-4 0 change" and then turn cards. When cards are passed out take only those colors indicated on the ticket on your seat. After the last stunt kindly pass cards lo the aisle where they will be collected. Hold top of card about even with the top of head F.xpose that color of "rooting hat" during the game that is paint ed on the seat you are sitting on. Pay particular attention to fur ther directions which will be given by cheer leader. Anv vlru nersons sittine in the cheer section will be required to leave during the stunts. Campus Observatory Provides Best Chance For Students To See Stars Have you ever seen stars? If you haven't you should go over to the astronomy observatory and you will see plenty. There are lots of uses for a telescope but you should see the stars. Not movie mars but real honest to goodness stars. Forty aspiring astronomers see and study stars every day. To the new student the heavens offer merely a multitude of pin-points of light, but to the advanced student and the. astronomer, the heavens iell as complete a story as does R novel or a Western Story' maga zine. Jupiter Holds Interest This week students are espe cially interested iu Jupiter. To the interested (7) reader it might be well to know that Jupiter is one of the rlanets which revolves around the sun.

All bouses entered in the competition for dec oration prizes will be judged to night at 7 o'clock, according to John Trout, chairman of the com mittee on fraternity and sorority decorations. Because of difficulties which have arisen in previous years, the limit for expenditures for decora tions has been set at twenty, five dollars this year. An account of expenditures made must be in the hands of Mr. Trout at the Sigma Nu house by 6 o'clock to night or the organization will not be considered for the cup, accord ing to an announcement from the committee. Bonfire Will Start Works A gigantic bonfire on the drill field north of Social Sciences hall will blow the cap off for what is expected to be Nebraska's premier homecoming gathering.

No One Is Hurt When Friend Is Diverted by Prof. Schramm's Tale There's at least one spell-binding tale ruvolor on the Nebraska faculty, or mayhaps, he's only f?.e cure-for-insomnia kind of story teller. We do not choose to guess. Anyway, Prof. E. F. Schramm of the department of geology, met Mr. Shean, of the downtown firm of Tucker-Shean, at breakfast in the Central cafe yesterday morning, and accepted his offer of a ride to the campus. On the way up Schramm started telling Shean about his trip to Central America this summer. At the Intersection of 17th and R streets Shean's car crashed into a Ford driven by H. J. Hubers. S12U R St. Schramm and Shean were driv ing north on 17th, and Hubers was going west on R street when the two cars met. No ore was injured Jn the mix-up. Hubers' car was badly smashed, and he estimated last night that it would take about fifty dollars to re pair the machine. A slight dent In one fender was the only damage suffered by Shean's car. No OEe was held to blame for the accident. John LeMar, a roommate of Hu bers. and one of Trofessor Schramm's geology students, was riding wiili Hubers when the acci dent occurred. Hubers has attended the i'niversity tbe past three years but is working at the city V. M. C. j A. this winter.

(and let's pray it will be tbe only one this week endi. close enough to the earth so that it can be studied with any amount of accuracy, according to Professor Swezev, head of the riepartment of Astronomy. "I'p until the last few nights we have been unable to studv it successfully on account of the cloudiness of the sky," he re marked. Students of tbe department do most of their work at night aa do some other students. Observations are made of the stars at night but the sun is studied in tbe day time. Every budding young astronomer must measure tbe sun and some of tbe more outstanding planets before he is permitted to go in tbe advanced classes.
