HOUSES TO AGAIN
USE HOMECOM NG
DAY DECORATIONS
Expense, Size of Exhibitions
Is Left to Discretion
Of Chapters.
NO PRIZES TO BE GIVEN
Tradition First Discontinued
Two Years Ago Due to
Depression.
Homecoming decorations will
again adorn fraternity and
sorority houses on the campus
after an absence of two years,
it was learned Tuesday. Twelve
sororities and ten fraternities have
announced that their respective
houses will again exhibit the dec
orations which in pre-depression
days were one of the most color
ful traditions of the university's
grid season.
Contrary to the previous cus
tom, however, when the Innocents
sponsored Homecoming decora
tions and awarded a prize to the
house adjudged as having the best,
this year's decorations will be on a
non-competitive basis and their
expense and size will be left to the
discretion of the individual chap
ters. "Although there is to be no con
test as in previous years, we want
as many houses as possible to dec
orate "for Homecoming," Owen
Johnson, president of the Inno
cents stated. "It adds to the gla
mour and attractiveness of the
Homecoming festivities and helps
to create a high degree of school
spirit."
Homecoming decorations were
first discontinued in the fall of
1932. due to economic difficulties
confronting Greek chapters on the
campus. The suspension was con
tinued in 1933, and decorations are
being revived this year despite an
adverse vote of the Interfraternity

GOES ON SALE TODAY
Issue Features Article by
Alumnus on Golden
Gate Bridge.
CARTOON PAGE FEATURED
Containing one of the best arti
cles it has ever featured, accord
ing to its editor. Marvin Nuern
bergcr, the Nebraska Blue Print,
student engineering publication,
went on sale today as its second
appearance of the current school
year.
This feature, an article entitled
"The San Francisco-Oakland Bay
Bridge," by C. H. Purcell, a uni
versity graduate, describes the en
gineering aspects of the world's
largest bridge project. The gi
gantic span, across the "Golden
Gate," eight and a half miles long,
is explained after fifteen months
of construction in a manner easily
understood by prospective engi
neers, the editor stated. Purcell
is head state engineer in Cali
fornia and chief engineer in charge
of the building project.
Also appearing in this issue is
the article, "Ethics" by Dean O. J.
Ferguson, which according to
Nuernberger deals with ethical
features of the profession and
would be of great value to future
engineers.
Something new and making its
initial appearance, is a faculty
cartoon page which this month
features a humorous caricature of
Prof. C. E. Mickey. This car
tooned page will regularly appear
in the Blue Print and characters of
the various professors will be
comically portrayed, Nuernberg
said.
Totaling nearly 550 names, a di
rectory listing all students in the
college with their addresses and
telephone numbers is contained in
this issue.

Miss Weaver III W ith
Infantile Paralysis
Miss Beveriy Weaver Is in
the contagious disease ward of
the University Infirmary, III
with infantile paralysis. Fortu
nately, the disease is not very
contagious and another case
may not develop. I wish to ask
students who may have had
contact with her to appear at
the Student Health "Department
in Pharmacy Hall if they have
any symptoms whatever, in or
der that a new case may be
caught early. Most cases de
velop under eight or nine days.
After fourteen days there Is
very little danger.
This is not the time for stu
dents to get nervous, but it is
time to manifest good common
sens. One case is not an epi
demic uut one case is just one
too many. If students will co
operate with the department as
indicated above the danger will
be reduced to a minimum.

Father Would Never Be a Professor
If Majority of University Teachers
Children Could Choose His Vocation
Father might be a lion tamer, a beauty simp proprietor,
a big banker, a famous artist, or ambassador but never would
he be a professor if the majority of university teachers' children
could choose his vocation. Although these "unfortunate" uni
versity students who have fathers on the faculty are full of
original ideas for chosen voeations.o-
their laments for their lives are
generally centered around the sad
fact that "professors children are
supposed to be so bright and we
really aren't."
Several girls bemoan their
father's job because it doesn't
bring in enough money. One
daughter wanted her father to be
a diplomat or ambassador because
he would "have such an interest
ing home life." Evidently home
life is an important factor "to these
professors' children, as another
faculty daughter wishes her father
were an artist or musician because
GIRLS ENTER CONTEST
Yearbook Editor Announces
Deadline for Filings
Wednesday.
24 CANDIDATES IN RACE
Voicing a plea for additional
candidates fro mthe barb ranks,
Editor Frank Crabill of the Corn
husker, university annual, an
nounced Tuesday afternoon that
the deadline for filing for the
Campus Queens awards falls at 5
p. m. Wednesday.
The contest, staged annually by
the publication, has already drawn
some 24 candidates from sororities,
Crebill announced, but so far barb
entries have been coming in slowly-
"All that is necessary for a barb
woman to do to enter is present a
petition signed by five students,"
he said, "altho 15 subscriptions
must be presented by each sorority
before the sorority may enter its
candidate, the sororities so far
have shown far greater interest.
Of course, we reserve the right to
limit the number of barbs if we re
ceive too many, but that hardly
seems necessary."
The six Campus Queens, who
will be named by the Cornhusker,
will be chosen this year by Mc
Clelland Barclay, who has won
considerable fame as an illustrator
for current magazines.
Pictures of the candidates, which
will be submitted to Barclay for
judgment, will be taken next week
at the Rhinehart-Marsden studio,
Crabill announced.
Tassels to Again
Sponsor Balloon
Sales Saturday
When Nebraska makes her first
touchdown against Missouri Satur
day, excited spectators will let go
of hundreds of red and white bal
loons which will be carried far
from the field. These balloons arc
sold each year at the Homecoming
football game by Tassels, girls'
pep organization.
Sale of Homecoming balloons by
Tassels is one of the few Nebraska
traditions that has been going on
without interruption for several
years, according to Miss Louise
Hossack, president of the organi
zation, and for that reason, stu
dents and graduates should sup
port the enterprise by buying one
apiece.
"Balloons should be purchased
early as we expect a Nebraska
touchdown in the first few minutes
of play," she stated. Approximate
ly 2,000 were sold last year, and
many more are expected to be sold
this year.
Tassels are to meet at 12:45 Sat
urday afternoon at Chemistry hall
to make preparations for the sell
ing of the balloons. Any Tassel
who can help between 10 and 12
o'clock Saturday morning is asked
by Louise Hossack to come to
Chem hall.
Eleanor Neale is chairman of
the committee taking care of the
balloons, assisted by Margaret
Phillipps, Irma Bauer and Theo
