Jayhawk football tussle. The

scheduled for Oct. 24.
Conditions Are Similar.
The contest will be held under
practically the same conditions
this year as last year. Wolf said.
The rules governing the contest
are as follows:
1. No fraternity or sorority
shall 'incur an expense of more
than $25 in decorating.
2. Decorations at each house
must be lighted on Friday night,
Oct. 23.
3. Judging will take place on
Friday night, Oct. 23.
4. A statement of the cost of
the decorations must be sub
mitted to Art Wolf at T.he Daily
Nebraskan office before noon,
Friday, Oct. 23.
5. First prize awards to the
winning fraternity and sorority
shall be silver loving cups.
Much more attention will be
paid this year than previously to
the cost of the decorations. Wolf

come to the Innocents In regard
to some of the expenses last year.

Kicks Prove Valuable.
The game became a punting
duel early in the first period, with
Roby and Sauer competing against
Warren of Oklahoma. The 'kick
ing of the two Nebraska men
paved the way for the Husker vic
tory, their long kicks forcing Ok
lahoma to play in her own terri

The work of the . .iker line
