over Missouri yesterday. The bell,
presented before the game to Mis

secutive past victories, has been
taken to the trophy room of the
University where it will remain a
reminder of the "Mizzou jinx" be
ing broken.
Immediately before the first
whistle started the Missouri-Nebraska
game the bell was carried
to the center of the field by four
members of the Innocents society,
Frederick Daly, Carl Olson, Ken

bring two or three truck loads of
autumn-leaf covered boughs from

decorate the parly house. It is ex

atmosphere of the fragrant out-of-doors.

Eager Crowds
Block Streets
To See Houses
Thousands of people thronged
the streets of Lincoln Friday and
Saturday to view the homecoming
decorations on fraternity and sor
ority houses. Sixteenth and H
streets were practically blocked
from 7 o'clock until late Into the
evening. Fraternities and sorori
ties south of O street, proved an at
traction for hundreds of Lincoln
and outside people.
The most beautiful decorations
in the history of Nebraska Home
coming was the verdict of every
one who saw them. Every house
made some effort toward welcom
ing the homecoming alumni and
the invading tigers. Flood lights
lighted the houses and with the
bonfire at the drill field Lincoln
was veritably "lit up".
Tigers, Cornhusker football play
ers, cornstalks, colors vn the black
and gold and the scarlet and
cream, Iraternlty emblems and a
variety of other material were
used in the scheme of decoration.
The poor old Tiger was rather
roughly treated.

At the 7.1 Psi Phi house a Corn
husker was pulling his teeth, the
Pi Phis were sending him home de

he was being severely whipped,

Nebraska's giant cheering tec
tion gave yesterday's fang another
real demonstration of organized
roaring. Those who mlised the Sy
racuse game saw the perfected mo
tion stunt for the first time when
the 850 members of the section pre
sented the Cornhusker twisting the
Tiger's tail. Last week the produc
tion of a dad and son shaking
hands was the feature stunt of the
afternoon.
The first sunt on yesterday's pro
gram was the presentation of hello
grads; second Missouri University,
third and fourth, Cornhusker twist
ing the Tiger's tail; and fifth, Ne
braska U. Two sets of cards wer
used, one red and white, the other
red and black.
The motion Idea, originated last
week, has been the outstanding
feature of both games. By means
of a series of positions the morlng
effect is made very clear for the
west stands, where the single
change stunts have added mate
rially to the interest In the game
tor several years. Enlargement of
the cheering section has done
much to increase the effect, and
places Nebraska's cheering section
among the leading ones of the
country.
