Rigorous Work
Minneapolis, Minn. (IP) The
well-known horse-laugh, used alike
by high-brow and low-brow, is be
ing tried in the department of
journalism at the University of
Minnesota in an attempt to cure
tardiness.
This new method was introduced
after repeated failures along lines
which were instituted to force bud
ding newspaper men. to arrive at
Mr. Desmond's class on time.
The first experiment was one of
frar. It was the fear of large,
open spaces. I ne suiaeni was
made to walk across a broad ex
panse of bare floor, exposed during
the stroll to the gaze of several
classes in progress. A feeling of
inferiority during the conspicuous
advance was expected to result.
The experiment failed.
A "public executioner" was next
appointed to trip the late arrival
Just before he reached his seat.
The "executioner" was too easily
spotted, and this experiment
failed.
Sarcasm Is Failure
Sarcasm was used, flattery was
Introduced, subtle suggestions
were put in practice, to no avail.
Everything came to nothing. At
mld-quartar, acting on Mr. Des
mond's previous sarcastic sugges
tion that those who had too much
w ork to do to attend class on time
might leave early, several students
took advantage of the suggestion
and left eaxly--a half hour before
the closing bell.

again It may not, Mr. Desmond

must be tried, such as locking the

Last night on Memorial Stadium

took its first home workout since
last Wednesday. The Scarlet elev
en Is train-weary from the long
trip to the cist and the Husker
coaching staff will whip the Ne
braska ball toters into shape for
the season final Thursday with the
Kansas Aggie Wildcats. That is
the only hurdle between Nebraska
and a football championship of the
Big Six conference. The Aggies
from Manhattan are in perfect
shape for the battle, having had a
rest last week-end while the Ne
braskans battled Army at West
Point. And now Coach "Bo" Mc
Millln hopes to come up to Lincoln
and hand the mighty Huskers their
first defeat of the football season
in the conference.

Since the surprise game with the
Pitt Panthers and the defeat
handed Nebraska by tin; Army Ca
dets, the Kansas Aggie coach
thinks that he too can turn the
trick on the mighty Nebraskans.
Before the Pitt-Nebraska game,
the conference teams were willing
to hand the Cornhuskers the title
but now things have taken on a
different light and teams in the
Big Six are wondering If the
mighty Nebraska eleven can con
tinue going through the season
that it started early in October.
There is a little ray of hope binn
ing in the lieans of all the Mis
souri followers that the Nebraska
eleven will help them win the con
ference for should Nebraska go
down before the Aggies, it will
mean a tie for first place. Ne
braska is certainly not in the best
of shape for the coming game but
the coaching staff will try to whip
the team into shape and turn back
the McMlllln crew for a perfect
slate In the Big Six.

Kansas Farmers, the coaching

Be Held at Cornell U
Ithaca, N. Y. (IP) Cornell
University has been chosen as the
meeting place of the next Interna

held in August, 1932. This will be
the sixth meeting of the group,
which gathers every five years.
The last congress was held at
Berlin.
On Memorial Stadium field
Thursday afternoon, five great
moleskin warriors make their final
debut in collegiate football circles.
Five gridiron stalwarts of the
mighty Husker team will play no
more for the Scarlet and Cream.
Their years in the ranks of the
Nebraska elevens have been great
ones and will not be forgotten as
their names are written in bold
figures into the football history of
Nebraska.
Heading the list of the men who
appear for the last time wearing
the scarlet are Nebraska's two
captains, Elmer Holm and Blue
Howell. Two men who have been
outstanding on the Husker elevens
for three years. In the line Elmer
Holm has been a clever football
player and a tower of strength on
both defense and offense. In the
backfleld at the fullback position
Is the only man who will be lost to
the Husker backfield, Edward Blue
Howell. Blue is the most outstand
ing ball lugger in the conference
and Is only equaled by his run
ning mate, Clair Sloan. Nebraska's
greatest loss is in the line where
Ted James, Dan McMullen, Cliff
Ashburn and Holm leave places to
be filled next season on the grid
iron. James is probably the great
est center in the Big Six and his
uncanny passing all season have
made it possible for an unerring
backfield.
These five men appear for the
laHt time Thursday against the
Kansas Aggies and have been
through a most difficult season. In
selecting mythical all-star eleven
from the Big Six conference, we
would start with "Dannie" McMul
len for one of the guard posts in
the line. McMullen has played a
bang up game all season and Is
rated by eastern critics as one of
the best linesman to appear in the
east this season. It would be hard
to complete the eleven without In
cluding Ted James at center, El
mer Holm at the other guard post
and Blue Howell for the fullback
position in the backfield.

Nelson, of Sydney, showed how
the parliamentary system was more

upon the executive, and how the

He pointed out the Ineffective
