i:ents and scoring system for

Olympics, which are scheduled lor
Saturday, November 10, In the Coli
seum and ou the practice drill field
Inside the stadium, were an
nounced Saturday by the commit
tee in charge of the arrangements
for the freshman-sophomore settle
ment. Three weights of boxing, three
weights of wrestling, a 440 yard re
lay race, tug-of-war, bull pen, and
the memorable pole rush constitute
the events on the Olympic slate.
The system of scoring has been re
arranged and proportioned differ
ently than In other years, so as to
make for closer competition and to
olfset the great differences which
have heretofore existed between
the mass numbers of sophomores
and freshmen turning out for the
events.
The pole rush will be the only
mass event, on the schedule of
events, and the rules governing
this have been changed to offset
the disadvantages that have been
experienced by the handful of
loal sophomores who defend the
pole.
Number Unrestricted
The number of freshman class
men and sophomores for this mass
event is unrestricted. The pole
will be higher, however, than in
former years and the time limit on
unseating the sophomore president
from the perch will be whittled
down. This is to offset the in
equality that has formerly and al
ways existed between the small
protecting group of sophomores
and the surging mass of angry
first year men.
Another lnovatlon in the Olympic
program has been the points that
are offered for the best co-ed turn
out. Red ribbons wilt b given to
every freshman girl that passes

University of Nebraska will be
host this week to the Uulted States
Navy band, world famous musical
organization, appearing In after
noon and evening concerts at the
Coliseum, Tuesday, Nov. 6.
The Navy band Is the official
musical organization of Uncle
Sam's sea forces, being authorized
by a special act of Congress. The
present concert tour Is being con
ducted by permission of the Pres
ident of the United States, Lincoln
being included on the itinerary of
Bixty cities to be visited by the
bandsmen.
While few students of the Uni
versity have had an opportunity to
attend a concert of the U. S. Navy
band, a majority have heard this
organization over the radio. Dur
ing the winter season, the U. S.
Navy band with Lieut. Charles
Denter in charge has been heard
every week over the National
Hroadcasting system network from
Washington, D. C. The band which
is coming to Lincoln this week, Is
the organization that plays when
ever the President of the United
States speaks.

One of the remarkable things
about the band is its ability to ob
tain the services of the foremost
soloists and musicians of the na

Former Student
Likes Life In
South America
A letter, dated October 15, has
just been received from Frank J.
Pospisil, who is now stationed at
.vlaracalbo, Venezuela with the
Lago Petroleum Corporation. "Pos''
is best remembered as oue of the
mainstays in the famous Nebraska
lines of 1024 and 1923, also for his
ability in the weight events during
track seasons of those years. At
that, athletics were only Bldelines
with 'Pos,' whose real interests lay
in geology. Upon his graduation
in 1927, lie became connected with
the Lago Corporation and left for
South America that fall.
Pospisil is in charge of the sub
surface formations at a new field
located at Tia Juana. His are the
labors of a subsurface geologist,
better known to the drillers as a
"niudsmeller." He described his
work In a series of technical terms,
in which he spoke of horizons and
formations in a vernacular that was
somewhat strange. The work is
Interesting however, and certainly
the surroundings are romantic as
a book.
'Pos' Not Homesick
'Pos' firmly believes that South
America is no respecter of time.
His time has been filled so com
pletely with interest, that he can
hardly realize that his is only six
months more and then home sweet
home again. Who would not regret
leaving a land of tropical storms,
earthquakes, alligators and perhaps
a coy senorita, perhaps?
Recreation consists chiefly of
swimming and hunting. A post
script told of returning from a
pigeon hunt and an enviable bag.
At other times 'Pos' thinks of what
the Cornhuskers are doing at the
moment on the gridiron. Football
news, though a bit tardy, finds its
way to interested fans south of the
equator.
F. G. COLLINS WILL
TALK AT PROGRAM
Mr. F. G. Collins of the museum
will talk at the regular Sunday

First Taste of Winter Is Cause of
Confusion, Tardiness and Balky Cars
Yes, children, as I was saying,
there are three distinct periods in
the evolution of our modern winter.
The first of course, was the glacier
priod when a rugged little atom of
energy was deposited upon the
western plains and grew, feathering
momentum and force as the ages
sailed by, until it blossomed from
a pollen like grain into that beauti
ful flower, Nebraska spirit.
The second was the snow of '88,
before even the Alpha Thetas had
embarked upon their colonul exist
ance. Old man winter had things
In a mess. It might interest you to
know that Mrs. Cecilia Jones suc

seven weary miles" to borrow the
butter and spread her daughter
Nellie's lunch ( Nellie was co-edlng
at the time at Nebraska).
Eating Clubs Forsaken
But all joking aside it wan a
tenible winter, and several Ne
braska eating clujjs were forsaken
at noons for the restful shelter of
tho "Y" Temple. There they feasted
upon the steaks of a buffalo killed
a few days before by mistake when

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS. Me

back the second half with a ter
rific line driving attack that swept
the Jayhawkers off their feet, the
Nebraska Cornhuskers rode victor
oub over the Kansas eleven, scor
ing all their points in the second
half to win the Kansas homecom
ing classic 20 to 0.
Playing a mediocre brand of foot
ball throughout the initial half, the
Scarlet and Cream eleven from Lin
coln could not seem to get organ
ised and floundered around on a
soggy field, letting the Kansas
eleven go through the Husker line
for two first downs.
The Cornhusker "powerhou-e"
got under way Just a few minutes
before the close of the first half
and started their victory drive
down the field but the time-keeper's
gun ended the first half.
Howell and Sloan Start
The second half saw an entirely
new and powerful Husker team
facing the Kansas Jayhawkers. The
HuBker backs, Howell and Sloan,
the two iron men of the Scarlet
backfleld, were tearing and ripping
through the Kansas line for long
gains, which took but a few min
utes for the Husker team to inarch
over the line for the initial touch
down. Nebraska's first touchdown came
after five minutes of the second
half had elapsed. Clair Sloan's forty-five
yard punt to the Kansas 5
yard line started the touchdown
march. Lawrence punted back tc
Sloan, and the flashy Husker back,
returned the ball twenty-six yards
putting the ball on the 10 yard line.
