BY William MoCuffin, '32.
If an examination were possible
of letters gc.'ng to dads from the
UnlverBlty o; i.euraska students
fhe last few days, some interesting
news as far as the dads are con
cerned anyway would be brought
to light.
"Big time and everyone will be
there. . . .It's all for you dad. .so
darned proud of you.... want you
to bt sure and come.... show the
other fellows what a real man you
are. ..."
And so the contents would run.
Sounds like a big fuBs ? You're ab
solutely right and the fuss is for
dad and nobody else.
Fathers from all over the state
will be kings for a day. They will
be wined, dined and shown a good
vtlme. The university and every
thing in it will be theirs. And
they won't need a key to get in.
either.
Saturday. Nov. 7, is official
Dad's day at the University of Ne
braska. It has always been one of
the most Important on the uni
versity calendar, but the care with
which the Innocents society has
prepared this year's program the
additional entertainment and mul
titude of details which have been
added and worked in, promise to
make the event this year the most
important one since its origin a
number of years ago.
Dads Sent Invitations.
A special edition of the Dally
Nebraskan, student newspaper,
has been sent to every university
dad as a special Invitation to the
day. The edition conta.ned invita
tions from Chancellor E. A. Bur
nett, and the Innocents society,
which sponsors the day each year.
Kven "Masie" and "Eddie," mythi
cal daughter and son, respectively,
unit symbolic : of the hundreds of
sons and daughters at Nebraska
were present In the special num
ber with characteristic words of
invitation.
In addition to this, 3,000 letters
.have been prepared and sent out
7y the Innocents to supplement
the newspaper invitations. Sons
and daughters in school have been
urged to write home about thz day
nd o-et dad to come if at all pos
sible. Majority of the student3
have responded to this request.
Here's the Program.

Sorority Congress.
HELD AT ST. LOUIS
The National Pan-Hellenic con
gress celebrated its thirtieth an
niversary by holding a convention
at St. Louis, Mo., last week end.
National sorority officers, national
sorority Pan-Hellenic delegates,
from all over the United States
and Canada were present.
This was the first year that col
lege Pan-Hellenic delegates were
invited to attend some of the con
vention meetings. Evidently col
lege Pan-Hellenic organizations all
over the United States thought
that it was a worthwhile enterprise
as there were approximately one
hundred fifty college delegates in
attendance.
Hold Discussions.
Rnnnrt table discussions were
held and rushing problems were
discussed. Rushing problems are
vital on most of the campuses, and
so sympathy as well as ideas, were
exchanged.
Th TTnlvprsltv of Nebraska
delegates, Elizabeth Barber and
Julia Simanek, brought back many
new ideas which will probably
prove solutions for many of the
present rushing problems. Most of
these ideas lie in the working out
of the preferential system of rish-
ing, the housing of rusheei during .
rush week, and summer rushing.
Make Suggestions.
There were several general sug
gestions that were emphasized
thru out the convention period.
Many of these pertained to the
freshmen. Each sorority was asked
to create Individual personalities
and not try to stifle their fresh
men by maklnjj them exactly like
all the actives in that particular
group.
Then too, each sorority was ad
vised to see that its freHhmen get
more out of college life as a whole
because they were freshmen of
that particular group. All of the
sororities were reminded that
their freshmen need models rather
than masters. Think these sugges
tions over and put them into prac
tice. Perhaps then the University
of Nebraska delegates will be able
to say that the next National Pan
Hellenic convention that more
honor and fair play in rushing had
been achieved on this campus, for
remember that the freshmen of to
day will be the actives of tomorrow.

srttn.
Joyce Ayres wrote this spirited
field song in response to a call
from Captain Skinner, who in
1928 directed the military routines
of the band. It was in that year
that the football team invaded
West Point, and the Army's lively
exhibition of enthusiasm made
particularly evident Nebraska's
lack of A suitable marching piece.
Acting upon Captain Skinner's
suggestion, Ayres wrote words to
fit the melody, which he had had
in mind for some time, but it was
the following fall before he had it
ready .to present to the band and
other organizations intarested.
Meanwhile Dutch Weymueller and
a fraternity brother of his had
been working on the Nebraska
Field Song, better known as
"Fight Nebraska! Fight!" They
submitted it to the Innocents so
ciety, of which Joyce Ayres was
a member at the time, and Ayres,
officially accepting the other song
along with the Innocents,, -up-pressed
his own for another year.
Th-i Pittsburgh game of 1930
was the occasion of its official pre
sentation. Fred Ware, sports edi
tor of the Omaha World Herald,
had through his column made ap
peal to Nebraska students for a
good marching song, echoing the
earlier sentiments of Captain Skin
ner. Ayres talked to him and
showed him the song he had writ
ten. Ware asked for a copy, had
it photo engraved, and it broke
in the World-Herald simultan
eously with its appearanca in the
be-
Dailv Nebraskan. the Friday
fore the Pitt game.
Nebraska's students have not
been singing this song because
they did not know it. The band
has played it at every game, and
the tune at any rate should be
familiar. The strain is as stirring
as "On, Wisconsin," "Go, You
Northwestern!" or any other colle
giate field srrag. All it needs is a
solid mass of student voices to sing
it. The music has been printed
along with the words with the in
tent that organized groups should
learn it and give it full support at
the next game. Take a few min
utes off to learn the words, you
Cornhuskers, and join the band
next Saturday in giving Iowa an
earful of "Fight, Husker Varsity!"

Evolution of Present Cornhusker
The Cornhusker yearbook is one
of the most striking examples of
the growth of a campus tradition,
fcr it is one of the oldest. The first
yearbook was an annual published
in the "gay nineties" by the senior
class. The next step was the
"Sombrero" and finally the Corn
husker was evolved.
The old "Sombrero" was an an
nual in every sense of the word.
Many advertisements, some with
crude cuts, began and finished the
publication. Here is an Interesting
example of the type of these ads:

said in en interview yesterday.
"Altho the athletic, military and

most interest, and the students who
fail to get their pictures takenbe

"More students have been ask

ture than the usual time limit in
past years. "When the deadline is
set no extension of time will be

who have put off their sittings may

According to Detrick, the dead
line will be announced soon. "Right
now, at the first of the month,
when students usually have more
money than any other time, is the
time for them to have their pic
tures taken. I do not believe they
will have another chance to have
them taken at the first of the
month, because the time limit more
than likely will have been passed
before that time.
"Any students who are eligible
to have their pictures in the year

having them taken, had better get
