lets only his love for his son dis
turb his faith is genuine and im
pressive. Hosman Gives Meaning.
Doris Hosman gives a real mean
ing to the role of the daughter,
Hannah. Miss Hosman enters to
her part with zeal and enthusiasm,
and consequently makes a fine
young Irish woman who is willing
to sacrifice everything to keep her
old father happy. .. . -

"Choppy" Rhodes, in addressing
the fraternities stated, "Students
at Nebraska do not seem to real
ize that the game between Ne
braska and Kansas Aggies next
Saturday will decide the Big Six
title. Whoever wins this game will
be champion of the Big Six con
ference. The Aggies are already
two touchdowns ahead of us. Be
sides that, Manhattan students
have been rallying down there for
the past two weeks and whenever
they see a chance to go out and
encourage their team they take it
"The Aggies have one of the
strongest teams in years this fall
and they are pointing for Ne
braska. This will be no toss-up
game Saturday. But Nebraska
students act aa thougn tnis were
simply another football game
nothing to get concerned about.
The team needs a strong student
support and they've got to have
it if they win that game Satur
day." "They never have and they never
will." The slogan will be used on av
sendeff rally for the team Thurs
day night and members of the In
nocents society hope it will stir up
enough loyalty In Cornhusker stu
dents so that a little enthusiasm
really will be evinced.
