ANNUAL 8IZAD DINNER CHANCELLOR'S WELCOME. DEAR DAD AND MOTHER: Do you know of "Dad's Day" at the University of Nebraska! That means mothers too. Do you know that the University sets aside one day each year when you are especially invited to visit your son or your daughter or both and attend one of the best football games of the sea son? This year the game is with Iowa State College. Iowa State is reported to be one of the strong teams in the Con ference. Nebraska's team will be at its best. That means you will see a fine, hard fought, sportsmanlike game. We hope the best team will win on October 27. But Dad's Day is something more than an opportunity to see a football game. It is an opportunity to see the University of Nebraska with its fine buildings and facili ties for education, to visit with the men and women on the faculty, as well as to see your son or daughter in their temporary homes where they are endeavoring to prepare themselves to become more efficient members of society. In these difficult times efficiency counts, but we also try to increase the capacity of each student to live a full and . satisfying life when he returns to the home community. Dad's Day provides for a luncheon at the Lincoln Hotel at noon. Both Dad and Mother are invited; women utudents as well as men are expected to bring their par ents, both father and mother, if both are here, or either one who may be in the city. You will be welcomed by the University and by state and city officials. Try to be with us for Dad's Day. E. A. BURNETT, Chancellor. E Armand Hunter Selected to Portray Role of Ned Farrar.
