HONOR FOREIGN GUESTS
Rev. Ervine Inglis of the Vine
Congregational church spoke be
fore one hundred, and fifty fac
ulty members, students and their
foreign guests at the fourth an
nual International Friendship ban
quet Friday evening at the First
Presbyterian church. Dr. C. H.
Patterson acted as toastmaster.
Rev. Inglis made a challenge to
these groups which talk peace,
but do not make their demands
sufficiently strong so that the
diplomats who settle world prob
lems, act by the will of these who
cry for peace. He stated that
there is a triple threat. With peace
asJn football, there are those who
can kick, and there are those who
can pass, but where in peace are
those who will hit the line with
their demands, declared Rev.
Inglis.
"I believe the time is coming
when peace promoters will spread
propaganda and pressure will be
brought on government heads,"
stated the speaker.
Cuneo Speaks.
J. A. Cuneo of the economics
department told of friendly inter
nationalism, but declared that if
nations are going to succeed in
this policy they must have a defi
nite goal. The World Court is the
aim which Mr. Cuneo would have
the nations aspire to accept.
"It is meetings such as this In
ternational Friendship dinner
which cement world peace and
foster international good will," de
clared "the speaker. "War is a
crime against civilization, and it
is necessary that the nations
learn to settle their disputes in
other ways," said Mr. Cuneo.

Frosh Win First Two Trials
Of Contest Conducted
Between Halves.
YEARLINGS ARE HAPPY
Snatching scarlet and cream
caps from their heads, first ear
men yesterday hurled them hil1
into the air and proclaimed vic
tory over the sophomores at the
conclusion of their tug-of-war.
The tug-of-war, which was held
between halves of the Hawkey;
Nebraska tilt, was instituted this
year to replace the former Olym
pics as a means of determining
when the freshmen may lay aside
their caps.
Each team was made up of
twelve men. Led by Harold Sod
erlund, captain of the team and
president of the freshman lass,
the frosh dragged their opponents
twice over the goal line and thru
the stream in a highly systema
tized fight The winners were de
termined by two out of three
trials.
Card Stunts Halted.
The contest baited all cheering
card stunts and the directors of
the card stunts were forced to
wait until the contest was fin
ished before they could finish their
presentatl n for movie cameras
and occupants of the west stadium.
When Referee Lewis blew his
whistle, indicative of the take off,
all eyes focused on the event
Freshmen resorted to their high
school tactics in cheering and lead

men pulled their opponents thru
the stream of water for the sec
ond time, their classmates in the
stands heaved high their head
gear and shouted their victory.
Altho every freshman is ob

According to Notice
Issued Saturday.
READY FALL OF 1932
Announcement Ends Ten
Year Struggle for Girls'
Housing Units.
Actual construction work on the
women's dormitories at University
of Nebraska will start within a
short time. Bids for construction
of the new S263.000 dormitory
unit will be opened fit 2 p. m. Tues
day, Dec. 1, according to legal
notices ordered today. Under the
terms of the advertisement for
bids, contractors will bid on fur
nishing the labor and material
necessary to complete the general
contract and the plumbing, host
ing, and electrical contracts in ac
cordance with the plans and speci
fications. According to the notice
to bidders, the contract will be
awarded to the lowest responsible
bidder, with the regents reserving
the right to reject all bids.
The last obstacle to this project
was overcome recently when the
board of educational lands and
funds approved the request of uni
versity authorities for a loan of
$175,000 to help pay for the new
building. The 1P?9 legislature
made an appropriation of $200,000
for land and partial construction
of the building, the unexpected
balance of which, $93,700, was re
appropriated by the 1931 special
session.
Advertising for bids on this new
dormitory mark the culmination
of more than ten years' work by
interested parties, especially
women, for university dormitories.
Plan Started in 1920.
The first women's dormitories
were put into use in 1920 when six
cottages, most of them located on
R street between Twelfth and
Thirteenth, were converted into
doimitories. These buildings were
private residences that had been

othe goal for the extra point.
There was no deception in the
play as the Huskers marched down
the field. Iowa knew what was
coming next, but they were pow
erless to stop the terrific charging
of the Husker line and the plung
ing of Paul and Kreizinger.
Convincing Victory.
Nebraska's victory was much
more convincing than the score in
dicates, the Huskers piling up a
total of sixteen first downs to five
for the Hawkeyes. The Nebraska
line went on a rampage, tearing
huge holes in the Iowa forward
wall and stopping the famed
plunging of Hickman and Sansen
dead.
Although Nebraska found the
weak spot in the Iowa line early
in the game, it was not until the
third period that they were able
to score. The Huskers threw away
one chance early in the first quar
ter after a pass, Bauer to Penny,
put the ball on the Iowa 1-foot
line. On the next play Paul fum
bled and the Hawkeyes recovered
to stop the threat.
Paul Intercepts Pass.
Paul brought the 20,000 specta
tors to their feet in the third
quarter when he intercepted an
Iowa pass and ran fifty yards to
put the ball on the Hawkeye 21
yard line. The Husker threat was
stopped by a 15-yard penalty for
holding.
At no time during the game did
Iowa make a serious threat to
score. Her passes were knocked
down by the Nebraska backs and
her line plays were stopped cold
by the Husker line. This forward
wall of the Cornhuskers again
proved its worth. Rhea, Koster
and Ely distinguished themselves,
spending most of the afternoon

Have Not Abandoned Idea of
Petitioning Faculty
Committee.
ARE WAITING A WEEK
Although the law college dis
senters made no effort to impede
the Kosmet Klub from presenting
the morning revue, yesterday, they
have not abandoned their petition
to the university faculty senate
questioning the Klub's rights to
pass a restrictive rule on the eli
gibility of candidates for Ne
braska Sweetheart.
The petition is now in the hands
of several of the leaders of the
movement in the law college, in
cluding the presidents of the re
spective law classes. It will come
before one of the regular meetings
of the faculty committee on stu
dent affairs which is the commit
tee of the senate delegated with
the power to make final decisions
on appeals from ruungs oi ma fciu
dent Council.
This committee meets regularly
every Monday, but since the peti
tion is not yet in the hands of the
committee members, its consider
ation of the dispute will be held off
for another week so that members
may have time to previously study
the merits of the controversy be
fore the meeting convenes. Accord
ing to Dean T. J. Thompson, chair
man of the committee, the petition
to get consideration even at the
meeting a week from tomorrow,
must be available for study early
this week.
McKinney Makes Statement.
Glenn McKinney, president of
the senior law class, edd that the
petition would be ready to be pre
sented during the fore part of the
week.
Enough concern over the law
college attitude toward the show
was manifested in campus rumors
last week to induce Dean Thomp
son to call in one of the law lead
ers to find whether any movement
was on foot to try to hinder th
orderly presentation of the ahow.
Dean Thompson received the as
surance of the law representative
that no conspiracy existed and
that rumors to that effect were
idle talk.
