Men's Pep Club, Appearing
In Uniform, to Canvass
Campus.
Launching an intensive Conv
husker sales campaign, Mon
day, Corn Cobs, men's pep or
ganization, will canvass the
campus in a spirited two week
drive in an attempt ot boost the
number of buyers to a new record,
Maynard Miller, business manager
of the book, declared yesterday,
With a new low price set at
$3.75 which has been unap
proached as yet by any former Ne
braska annual or contemporary
yearbooks throughout the entire
Big Six district, the effort being
made by the pep club is expected
to bring favorable result. "The
new figure makes this year's prod-
uct one of the lowest priced an
nuals in the nation," Miller said.
Pepsters Wear Uniforms.
As a constant reminder of the
sales drive and in an effort to
stimulate interest, Corn Cobs will
appear in uniform on the campus
every school day of the week, Irv
ing Hill, president of the pep club,
announced Monday. This will en
able those desiring to purchase
yearbooks to identify the salesmen,
who are taking over that function
as a group.
This year, as last, a queen sec
tion will be one of the features of
the Comhusker. A severe restric
tion, however, has been placed
upon the sororities wishing to file
candidates for queen honors, and
only those sororities purchasing
fifteen books may be allowed to
select a candidate. Those sorori
ties desiring to enter two or more
candidates must have fifteen sub
scriptions in their bouse for every
girl entry. It was also emphasized
by Miller that these subscriptions
must be in before the deadline net
for Nov. 10 far books -puiohased
after that date would not count
towards that total.
Special Installment Rate.
To benefit those students who
ran not purrhase the book out
right, a special rate is being of
fered so that a student may make
a down payment of one dollar, at
the time the book is ordered, a sec
ond payment on Dec. 1, a third
payment Jan, 10, and the final dol
lar to be paid when the book is
actually received sometime in the
spring.
With last year s uornnusner re
ceiving an A 11-American rating,
the highest honor that may be be
stowed upon a college publication,
Frank Crabill, present editor of the
publication, declared that this
year's book would not be less in
quantity or quality than the 1934
edition.
Features New Idea.
New ideas will feature the 1635
edition, Crabill added, in addition
to the Queen section, embodying
such items as an entirely new
rover and complete new layouts
for both the fraternity and sorority
divisions.
The new cover is a padded type
which is considered by many to be
the roost beautiful yearbook cover
on annuals throughout the nation.
Some schools have adopted this
particular cover kiiU have been
highlv praised for its beauty.
Crabill said.

American Architect Devotes Entire
October Issue to Nebraska Capitol,
Its Construction, Fight tor Location
By CAROL CLARK.
Minute details of the construction of the Nebraska State
Capitol and the desperate battles fought for its location are
recounted by Prof. Harry F. Cunningham, former head of the
department of architecture of the university, and John Ed
wards, law graduate and chief guide at the state capitol ifi two
of the articles found in the Octobero
issue of the American Architect
which deals solely with this
famous building.
Because the capitol is such an
excellent example of unusual
monumental design and because it
stands as a remarkable interpreta
tion of events which have shaped
the progress of American art, in
dustry and government, it has re
ceived praise from many prom
inent persons. According to Prof,
Cunningham, erection of the Ne
braska state capitol provided op
portunities for experimentation in
quantities never before known to
the modern world.

FEW FILE NAMES FOR
E!
Entries Must Be Handed Into
Dean's Office Before
Noon Thursday.
13 ENTERED LAST YEAR
The final date for filings rapidly
approaching, eligible university
students are showing a surprising
lack of interest in the annual
Rhodes scholarship competition,
according to Dean C. H. Oldfather,
chairman of the Rhodes awards
committee. Entries must be filed
before noon Thursday, Nov. 1.
But two students had filed for
the awards by Monday afternoon.
Four or five others have secured
application blanks, it was learned,
but the number of entries will fall
considerably below those of pre
vious years unless there is a last
minute rush. Dean Oldfather in
dicated.
Last year thirteen Nebraska uni
versity men entered the competi
tion, and the full quota of five was
chosen from that number to ad
vance to the state competition
where two candidates are annually
selected for district competition.
Each district includes candidates
from eight states, and the four out
standing candidates in each dis
trict receive the scholarships to
Oxford university.
"Certainly interest among eli
gible students on the Nebraska
campus is far lower than it has
been during the past few years,"
said Dean Oldfather Monday, "but
why that is so 1 do not know.
"The advantages of the Rhodes
awards are far too obvious to be
overlooked, for the 400 pounds a
year granted under the terms of
the scholarship is certainly a
worthwhile consideration," he add
ed. "Perhaps, however, we can
hazard the guess that prosperity
at last is 'just around the corner,-
and Nebraska students no longer
need outside aid to finance their
education.
"It is probably more true, how
ever, that the prospect of keen dis
trict competition is keeping Ne
braska university students from
entering the competition, although
I see no reason why it should. Ne
braska candidates have as equal
an opportunity to gain the award
as those from any other school."
But whatever the cause, the fact
remains interest is at an excep
tionally low ebb, with a consider
able number of possible candidates
passing up what may very well Je
a gulden opportunity.

Dr. Joy Guilford and Prof. Clif

Declaring that the NRA was
nothing but a series of experi
ments. Professor Clark pointed
out that it was not co-ordinated
and functioned under difficulties.
Placing- the blame for formation
of the NRA at the door of outside
interests, Professor Clark declared
that neither the administration nor
the brain trust was responsible for
the act, but rather certain business
interests with definite ends as
their coal.
The NRA is founded upon the
purchasing power theory, accord
ing to Professor Clark, a theory
widely accepted but never before
in effect and never before uruizen
as a recovery measure. Its nature
is inflationary he Indicated, but
added that the raise in prices so
far outscaled the wage increases
that little if any beneficial results
were forthcoming.
Professor Clark pointed out the
difficulty in administering the act
and the severe limitation of enter
prise, business judgment, and com
petition which also resulted. No
chance was given to prove the
theory involved he declared, since
interests utilized it for
their own cain.

Extension of the Nov. 1 time
limit for the Nebraska fight song

cents society, seemed probable to
day after an announcement by
Jack Fischer, Innocents member in
charge of the competition. "Out'
state inquiries and entries indicate
that there are still a large num
ber of manuscripts to be sub
mitted," Fischer stated, "so the
deadline may be extended to afford
the largest possible selection from
the entries."
Judges for the contest, to be
chosen from nationally known or
chestra leaders who feature college
songs on their programs, have not
vet Deen definitely decided upon
Final selection will probably take
place next week, according to
Fischer.
Eight complete manuscripts
have been filed with Fischer up to
yesterday, representing the efforts
of students, alumni, and interested
outstate citizens. Sponsors of the
contest pointed out that with the
extension of the entry deadline
probable enough time still re
mains for additional songs to be
written ana submitted.
Greater student support of the
contest was urged by Owen John
son, Innocents Society president,
in a statement Monday. "Profes
sional song writers have little edge
over students when it comes to
writing football fight songs. This
is demonstrated by the fact that
most nationally known college
songs came from the members of
the undergraduate body. If you can
furnish the words, team up with
someone musically minded, and
send in your entry. If this song has
genuine Comhusker spirit, it
should come from the student
ranks, or from those really inter
ested in the university."
In addition to the $20 rash
award to the winning song entry,
arrangements are contemplated
for a broadcast over a nation
wide hook-up. If possible, the In
nocents will first present the song
to the public at the Pittsburgh
game.

ADDRESS AT 11 TODAY
Noted Journalist of China
And America to Speak
At Temple.
George E. Sokolsky, noted
journalist of China and Amer
ica, will address the first all
university convocation of the
year Tuesday morninr at 11
o'clock in the Temple theater. An
authority on the Far East, he will
speak on "The Tinder Box of
Asia," discussing the complicated
relations now existing among Ja
pan, Russia, China, and Man
chukuo. Mr. Sokolsky lived in China for
more than thirteen years and ia
one of the most timely and inter
esting speakers available, accord
ing to officials in charge, who said
that perhaps no other American
newspaperman knows the Far
East so intimately.
In 1917, during the Russian
revolution, Mr. Sokolsky became
editor of an allied war paper in
Petrograd, but was asked to leave
by the Bolsheviks, who put him on
the famous "Express-Get-a-Way,"
which stopped in Harbin. Arriving
there, he possessed about a dollar
in American money, but, by vari
ous expedients, managed to reach
Peking. He became assistant edi
tor of a newly established Ameri
can newspaper in Tientsin, the
North China Star, after a short
while. Two or three months later,
he became advisor to the chief of
police of the province of Chihli.
About 1919, he went to Shang
hai where he became a reporter on
tie Shanghai Gazette, then owned
by Eugene Chen. It was at that
time that Sokolsky met Dr. Sun
Yat-Sen and other Chinese lead
ers. He later published a Chinese
newspaper, the Shanghai Journal
of Commerce, and helped to or
ganize the Chinese government
bureau of economical informa
tion. Mr. Sokolsky was also political
correspondent for the Japan Ad
vertiser in Tokyo, the Philadelphia
Public Ledger, and the Daily Ex
press in LoTidon et various times
between 1920 and 1P30. He 'became
editor of the Far Eastern Review
and contributor to the New York.
World, the New York Evening
Post, and the New York Times.
Since his arrival in this coun
try, Mr. Sokolsky has written ior
important city dailies in eastern
United States and has contributed
to several well known magazines.
Husker Y' Appears for First
Of Monthly Series
Wednesday.
"The Husker Y," new monthly
news and editorial sheet, spon
sored by the campus Y. M.. C. A,

pearance on Wednesday morning.
Manuel Brown, prominent Y. M.
worker, will head the rtaff which
includes Grant McClelland. Joe
Nuquist, Roswell Coger, Charles
Hulac and C. D. Hayes.
"The purpose of the paper,
Brown said, "is to present Chris
tianity as b social way of life. Wa
are striving for an integration of
the principles of Christ's philoso
phy with social living and we want
to unite students in common
Christian Fellowship." The editor
further stated that opposition to
war. whic h violates all Christ inn
ideals, will necessarily be a part
of the paper's uoliey and the abo
lition of the R. O. T. C. is one of
the specific goals toward wtnen
the Husker Y will aim.
Regarding the pspcr. president
of the Y. M. C. A., Charles Hulac,
declared that it grows out of the
need of the Men's Christian Asso
ciation for a medium of -expres
sion and the spirit of this organi
sation will be portrayed.
According to members of the
staff, the "Husker Y" will be made
up of three or four mimeograph
sheets and will be distributed each
month on the campus. Copies will
be sent to the various fraternity,
sorority and student boarding
houses and will be placed at other
student centers where they may be
had by those interested.
