PLAN TO SHARE PROFITS Husker Coed Contest Closes With Completion of Drive. "The Initial sale of year books has been extended for a period of one more week, to definitely end on Nov. 11, the last day of sales at which the present discount will be offered," Charles Skade, busi ness manager of the Cornhusker, stated yesterday. The sale has been gaining momentum each day from the be ginning of the sale, but Skade states that the number sold is far from the necessary number that must be sold by the end of this week. "Students must co-operate with the student publication if they expect to receive the full benefit of the bargain offered in this sale," he said. The business manager feels that the support given the Annual dur ing the first week was no indica tion of the feeling of every true student, but that the students have no doubt been waiting to pur chase their books during the next week, and "it can not be too im peratively stated that success of a Coruhusker depends upon the sup port of every individual of the uni versity."

The uni versity, the teachers colleges, the tvrmal schools, and normal train mf. 1 ' schools have been turning out . . . teachers each year to fill this demand, and up to 1929 sup ply and demand were fairly well balanced.
