Norma Carpenter, Wayne,
Neb., was re-elected national
president of Gamma Alpha Chi,
woman's honorary advertising
Bororitv, at the business session
of the national convention held on
Saturday morning in Ellen Smith
hall. Mrs. Alta Gwinn Saunders,
Urbana, 111., was renamed vice
president; Mrs. Taina Nelson. Se
attle, Wash., secretary-treasurer,
and Mrs. Robert Speer, Seattle,
Wash., editor.
Prof. F. C. Blood of the adver
tising department and advisor to
the local chapter, spoke at the
Saturday noon luncheon at the Y.
W. C. A. Speaking of the place of
the recovery program in the stimu
lation of consumer demand, Pro
fessor Blood stated that the effect
has been to diminish the purchas
ing power of the people who have
money. .
"As long as advertising and sim
ilar market methods are ignored it
will be difficult to stimulate busi
ness," stated Blood, and went on to
say that the advertising program
of the administration ignored mar
keting and advertising methods as
an important part of the entire
scheme.
He declared that the advertising
program had been part of the orig
inal plan but this phase of the
Bcheme had been lost thru lack of
proper push and interest.
Blood drew an analogy between
the old desperadoes of the Nebras
ka prairie and the old writers of
advertising. "Farming and ranch
ing in Nebraska was formerly an
adventure, now it is the work of
experts. Advertising used to be an
adventure, now scientists in that
field are required to perform the
duties."
Arthur Hallam, secretary-treasurer
of Alpha Delta Sigma, men s
advertising organization spoke to
the convention Friday morning
giving a history and explanation
of the workings of the men's fra
ternity. Mr. Hallam was in Lincoln
to see about reestablishing an Al

Freshman Girls
Discuss Points
Of Etiquette
By George Anna Lehr.
It would delight the heart of
Emily Post to see with what eager
ness and at what length various
questions of proper behavior were
discussed at the first meetings of
the freshman commission groups
sponsored by the Y. W. C. A.
Books of etiquette were consulted
and each question that the girls
brought in was debated as
thoroughly as the amount of time
allowed.
The question "What type of
dress should one wear to an hour
dance?" was finally answered with
"Nearly any type of dress may be
worn, but a silk street dress or aft
ernoon dress is the most suitable."
Other problems that were brought
up pertained to bow a girl should
greet her blind date when there Is
no one there to introduce her to
him; whether or not a hat should
be worn on a date; certain points
about Introductions such as when
and bow they should take place;
and other small, troublesome sub
jects of eitquette.
There are eight freshman com
missions with memberships rang
ing from fifteen to twenty-five
girls. One new commission was
formed in order to accommodate
girls that could not get into other
groups because of the large mem
berships. Each group is headed by
a member of the Y. W. C A. cab

J it is doubtful if ossie boiem,
who has led Iowa from a Big Ten
cellar position to a ranking con
tender, expected his powerful, vet
eran eleven to fall before the on
slaught of an inexperienced bunch
of sophomores. Indeed, it is doubt
ful if half a hundred of the over
flow crowd of 35,000 paying wit
nesses expected to see the Hawk
eyes humiliated, especially with
Dick Crayne and Oze Simmons in
the backfield.
But Coach Bible depended not on
two stars to bear for him the brunt
of a hard football game. The re
vamped Cornhusker lineup which
opened against the Solem coached
invaders contained anything but
individual stars, but it presented a
smooth, coordinated working unit.
And against this eleven-in-one
combination ti" Hawks couldn't
click in the L....ier expected of
them.
Margin Small.
Nebraska's margin of .victory
was not large, and the number of
first downs and yards gained cor
responded quite closely, 17 to 15;
and 274 to 259. Nebraska's mar
gin in points came through Sam
Francis' educated toe, but from
where did the spirit, the coopera
tion, the ability that so obviously
was lacking in the Minnesota game
of a week ago come?
Nebraska was always hard to
beat on their home field, and Iowa
presented the biggest threat to
their perfect at home record of re
cent years. Is that the answer to
the Husker sudden prowess? That
and the fact that Coach Bible
drilled his charges thoroughly with
but one view in mind co-ordination
of every man on the team. To
reach his end, he started a lineup
which had never before opened an
important encounter he gambled,
and he won.
True enough, Ossie Solem had

dynamos of human ability
