Subscriptions.
ANNOUNCE THREE PLANS
Annuals $5 on Installment

Sales drive for the 1932 Corn
husker begins tomorrow morning
and will continue through Nov. 10,
Russell Mousel, business manager
of the yearbook, announced yester
day. Members of Cora Cobs, Tas
sels and the staff of the publication
will conduct the sale.
Group driveR by the Corn Cobs
and Tassels will start during the
week. Marvin Schmid and Julienne
Deetkin, presidents of those two
organizations, will be in charge.
Sales booths will be placed in so
cial science hall, Andrews hall,
temple, and on the walk in front of
university hall. In addition the of
fice of the Cornhusker in univer
sity hall will be open at all times,
Mousel said. Yearbooks may be
purchased at any one of these
places, and salesmen will canvass
the campus through the groups
mentioned above.
"We hope to sell at least fifteen
hundred books to the students dur
ing the sales campaign," Mousel
stated. "It Is necessary that we sell
at least this many books if an en
graving contract is to remain in
effect under the new plan of man
agement If we are unable to sell
the necessary number of year
books, we may be required to work
out the book on a less elaborate
scale."
Must Order in Advance.
"I want to make plain the fact
that no books will be available in
the spring to the students who do
not buy them' -this fall, he con
tinued. In the past there has been
talk of no books for sale in the
spring and yet there have been
plenty of annuals put on sale after
publication. This year, however,
this will not be true. It is abso
lutely necessary to contract every
book order in advance and order
just that amount, not only because
of the financial situation, but also
because of the request of the stu

ranged for the distribution of the

GLEE CLUB
PLANS
Hollingsworth Sets Three
Practices Per Week
For Members.
Plans for three rehearsils a
week for the university glee club
were decided upon at the meeting
of the group Wednesday night. The
club will meet Tuesday night at
8, Wednesday night at 7:30, and
Friday night at 5.
At the first regular rehearsal
Friday afternoon, Harold Hollings
worth, director of the glee club,
announced that the group would
begin with sight singing at prac
tices. He said that sectional re
hearsals probably would be held
later to perfect the different parts.
"The group is a little unbalanced
at the present time, and I would
like to have more llrst tenors in
Uie club," Hollingsworth stated. "If
anyone wishes to try out, he should
call the school of music and get
in appointment for a tryout."
Tug of War Between Halves Saturday
WUl Decide Fate of New Frosh Caps
By ART BAItEY.
Next Saturday, the Saturday of
all Saturdays, when the proud Pa
ter will come to the son's alma
mater to raise a little college
whoopee and feed the pocket
books on Dad's Day, when the
Huskers will take Iowa State
(let's hope), then a line with a
tug team on each side of it
will determine whether or not the
freshmen will continue to carry
that little red cap around on the
back of their heads or place them
among their souvenirs. What a
lot a piece of rope, a line, and a
few men can do.
Rather than set a certain date
as to when the freshmen may
leave their "reminders" at home
as they did in the dark past, B.
C. O. R. C. (Before Coming of Red
Caps), the Innocents society will
sponsor a tug of war between the
freshmen and the sophomore
classes. If the sophomores should
pull the freshmen over the line
two out of three times the losing
freshmen must wear their flaming
head covers until the snow files.
In former years the deciding fac
tor was the auutial Olympic be

Miss Bereniece Hoffman, the
Nebraskan "lost and found" girl,
acted as intermediary in the re

'Scotch Twins' by University Players
Pleases Children's Theater Audience
BY LYNN LEONARD.
"The Scotch Twins," the play
presented by the dramatic depart
ment in the children's theater of
the Temple building, yesterday
met with the approval of one of
the largest audiences ever attend
ing cne of these performances.
This is the firyt of a series of
children's plays wh'ch will be pre
sented during the year. The uni
versity players present these under
the auspici'es of the Lincoln Junior
league. The players conducted an
advance sale of season tickets
which resulted in a complete sell
out. The two Scotch twins, which
were played by Sally Green and
Neil McFarland, won the admira
tion of every child present. Pat
McDonald, who played the pert of
Alan McRae. another lead, also
helped make the play a success.
Francis Brandt played the part of
Angus Neil, the villian. in a man
ner that arcused the hatred of
nearly every member of the Junior
audience.
The other members of the cast
were: Barney. Jerre Mickel: Sandy
Crumpet, Don Crow; Robin Camp
uone loucnaown ana was only a
foot from the winning score a
the game ended.
The victory advanced the Com
huskers another notch in the Big
Six race and brought the tradi
tional Missouri-Nebraska bell back
to Lincoln for another year.
The Huskers started out Satur
day as though they intended to go
places. On the opening kickoff
Nebraska recovered a Tiger fum
ble on the 36 y9rd line, lost the
ball on downs, took a Missouri
kicK on the Nebraska 45-yard line
and again marched down the field
to the 15-yard line. Masterson
dropped back and kicked a field
goal, putting the Huskers in tho
lead, .3 to 0.
Stuber Gains
Shortly after the Husker score,
Stuber worked the ball down to
the Nebraska 7-yard line, but
failed by inches to make the first
down. The half ended with Ne
braska still leading 3 to 0 and out
playing the Tiger.
The second half was a different
story. Shortly after the start of
the period, Kreizinger hit off the
Missouri right tackle evaded the
Tiger secondary and raced fifty
four yards to the Tiger 4-yard
hifnr. v,,.. aw2rt frn iw.
braska failed to gain through the
line so Masterson dropped back
and flipped a pass to Kilbourne
for the touchdown. Masterson
kicked the goal making the score
10 to 0 for the Huskers. At thia
time Nebraska's offensive stopped
and the Tiger took the game In its
hand.". Yard after yard was
ginned thru the line with Johan
ningmeier and Bittncr doing the
running. Each time, bc-'orc the
IlusV.ers were able to stop the
threat, it wa.? in dangerous terri

Plays for Children.
The university players have
presented these plays for childu-n
for a number of years but they
have never before met with the ap
proval and patronage with which
they are meeting this year, ac
cording to officials of tho organi
zation. The excellent sale of the
tickets and the Interest which was
shown at this play presented yes
terday Indicate brilliant prospects
for one of the best seasons In the
history of the entertainments.
The officials hesitated before
chosing "The Scotch Twins" af the
Initial production of tills season,
due to the skill required In making
the play a success. They thought
this would be difficult to obtain at
the beginning of the season. How
ever the ability of those playing
yesterday proved that this doubt
was Ill-founded. The play was one
of the best ever produced by the
organization, according tn- the
audience.
