task fjiciiiir Dana Bible's Cornhuskers is pretty
well defined.
A send-otf rally is planned for this after
noon. It is always difficult to .secure a rep
resentation at a J-"rid;iy afternoon rally, hut
the rally committee points to the import ance
of the contest and the severity of opposition
which is expected as justification for their
plans.
It is the duty of Nebraska students to at
tend this rally in as jireat numbers as pos
sible. This is the final pesture for the team
until they return. Very few, if any, students
are makinir the trip. The Husker gridders are
entering foreign territory, faced with the
strongest opposition in the conference, and en
tirely without stadium supporters. A huge
send-off rally might play its part in cheering
the lluskers on to another Big .Six championship.

Here's Where
The Work Begins.
A great student victory was won yester
day when President Franklin Roosevelt ap
proved a $180,000 grant for a Nebraska Stu
dent Union building.
Those who remember the beginning of
sentiment for a Union building on the campus
the first Innocent's report on the advantages
and disadvantages of such a structure made a
number of years ago and the start of the
present, drive several years ago will appreciate
the magnitude of the achievement. They will
recall the early investigations, the writing of
letters to secure alumni backing, final com
plete formulation of the idea in a Student
Council proposal, the two year's struggle that
ensued before the sseheme finally was ap
proved by the Board of Regents, the final
wait for allocation of PWA funds.
t
At times the cause seemed lost and hope
less in the face of criticism and rejections.
The Board of Regents was not at first con
vinced of the necessity of the structure. When
one step forward was taken, another obstacle
loomed in the path to success. But the in
dominatable will and university-consciousness
that perpetrated the thought of a Stu
dent Union building carried it into reality.
Petitions were circulated among the students.
Thousands of letters of alumni approval were
shown to the Board of Regents. Every ob
stacle was overcome. It took work, of course.
Hard work. Members of the Student Council.
Student Union Committee labored days and
nights drawing up arguments, seeing promi
nent and influential alumni, contactig re
sposible authorities. They can take a right
ful, merited pride in their efforts. Their
work is realized.
But the work is not ended now. It has
in reality just begun. There may be some
conditions attached to the PWA allocation
which must be met by the university. Per
haps they cannot be met. Every effort must
be taken to see that they are, if possible. The
Board of Regents must provide .f220.000.
Means and method of raising this fund have
to be considered immediately. A special
meeting of the Board will be necessary.
A site must be decided upon. As yet no
permanent spot on the campus has been set
aside for the Union. The Student Union Com
mittee of the Student Council should be in
cluded in the group selecting the site. No
plan of the type of building to be erected has
been approved. Some demand an "E" shaped
building, some hold out for an "I," shaped.
Students have shown their preference for
the "L."
The building must be furnished, and here
the Student Union committee enters in again.
The furnishings can be purchased by dona
tion. It is up to the Union committee to con
tact alumni, asking for donations to complete
ly furnish the structure.
The Union building is within the grasp
of the university. Only an unmeetable con
dition attached to the allocation can prevent
its erection. Such a condition is not expected.
Students should not think, however, that
the work is done. Quite the contrary. It has
but begun. Students should and must be rep
resented on every committee of the Board of
Regents which makes plans for the building.
They must have their voice in selection of the
site, furnishings, and architectural style. The
burden of this work will, of course, fall to the
Student Union committee. This is the stretch
drive. The Daily Nebraskan is confident that
with the energetic spirit of the Union commit
tee behind it, a Student Union building, dedi
cated to the students, soon will grace the Ne
braska campus.

OFFICIAL BULLETIN
pattern seems to be
It all began last year
j Nebraska's political
the craziest yet evolved.
when repubhcan-in-name Senator Norris.
announced his retirement afler 24 years in
the senate and ten years in the house.
The Nebraska republicans drew a deep
breath for they thought they were rid of the
man who had been slashing party ranks and
grabbing the senatorial nomination every six
years. They proceeded to nominate Mr. Sim
mons, who had. with the rest, of the repub
lican office seekers, succumbed in the 1SW2
landslide.
Demo leaders, meanwhile, tried to get
Mr. Norris to run on their ticket. He re
fused, and during the confusion that followed,
a certain Mr. Terry Carpenter bounced to the
top of the heap and won the democratic nomi
nation. State and national bosses of the demo
cratic party, however, failed to recognize
Mr. Carpenter; even going so far, after
Senator Norris came out of political retire
ment and was nominated on the Independent
ticket by 40,000 petitioners, as to request
him to withdraw.
Now Mr. Carpenter seems to be what
might be termed "a iirst class fightin'
man." At any rate he has vowed to give
Senator Norris the first political licking of
his career, though in so doing, he, in turn,
may be beaten by M. Simmons.

Nebraska's football team departs for
Norman, Oklahoma, today to meet their most
feared conference rivals. Undoubtedly the
Big Six 'championship is in the balance when
the Sooners and Cornhuskers clash tomorrow.
The lluskers are at a disadvantage
journeying south, with the probability of
playing in warm weather contrasting great
ly with Lincoln's climate of the past few days.
The sting of fall, so apparent here, is not no
ticeable in Norman. That may slow the Ne
braska team considerably.
I To be considered also, is the fact that Ne-
i - braska has come through 'two hard-fought,
i severe contests, while Oklahoma has had a
. comparatively simple time of it so far. Add
to this the tact that the Sooners have been
pointing for Nebraska for months, and the

one street, and would make addi
tions, such as the proposed audi
torium, difficult and odd-looking.
The L-shaped, besides having a
better appearance, would leave
room for the additions and would
front two streets."
Declaring that "the Student
Council seeks a design cabable of
providing for the needs of the
larger university of the future,"
President Arnold Levin stressed
the view of the council that the
proposed E-shaped building, while
meeting present needs, would be
less desirable than an L-shaped
building which could be enlarged
to meet the needs of an increased
enrollment.

Staunch Britishers must find themselves
in a dilemma, no end. For years they have
fretted because Edward has fallen in love with
no one. Or if he did, lie never did anything
about it. Now it seems that be is about to
merge (thanks, Walter) with a foreign "com
moner." What to do? What to do?
The upshot of the whole affair will be
that if Edward wants to. he will marry the pal.
And the ever-loyal Tommies will like it. As
prince and king. Edward has demonstrated
that in so far as possible he will dictate his
own life.
Passing thoughts of the new deal: Presi
dent Roosevelt displayed magnificent leader
ship durinir the bank holiday, yet necessity
for the holiday could have been avoided had
he co-operated with Hoover at the latter's in
vitation. . . . devaluation of the dollar was fun
damentally wronp. . . . the NIRA was poorly
written and poorly administered. . . reorgani
zation of the banking system was a wise and
necessary move. . . . the immediate relief ob
jective of the AAA was a pood emergency pol
icy, but production control was a blunder.
The social security plan is defective. . . .
WPA etc., is an extravagant way to administer
relief. . . . agencies to refinance farm and home
mortgages were essential. . . . the reciprocity
treaties negotiated by Secretary Hull have
been one of the greatest achievements of the
administration in starting all nations toward
reduction of tariff barriers. . . . too much
"politics" has been evident in the entire new
deal. . . . too many juggled figures. . . . too
many misleading statements. . . . party workers
are to be condemned for the use of relief funds
to strengthen the party.
The election this year will be more of a
class election than ever before. It is a rec
ognized fact that the poorer classes in the
country who have been receiving direct relief
or who have been aided by the New Deal's
farm and labor legislation will support Roose
velt, while the money-class and the middle
class who object to paving Ihe bill will vote
for Landon. This, coupled with the fact that
the Digest favors the upper classes, explains !
the Digest majority for Landon and the Jnsti-I
tute majority for Roosevelt. i
Perhaps the American Institute of Public
opinion is more correct because it gives every
body an equal chance to express their opinion.
Perhaps the Digest is right, because while it
doesn't poll everybody, it does poll those who
are interested enough to mark a ballot and re
turn it. If the rest are not. interested enough
to mark a straw ballot, will they be interested
enough to vote? This can be finally decided
only by comparing the poll results with the
actual election results, but it seems to this
writer that Dr. Gallup 's scientific method of
carefully polling a few is superior to the Di
gest method of polling 10 million at random.
Republican National Chairman Hamilton
fissured Chicago that Landon will be the next ;
president. Democratic National Chairman Far-1
ley lias been bragging that viclory is in the
bag. Kach claims the mathematical statistics!
to back up his declaration. The Daily Nebras
kan hates to take sides, but it seems to us that
someone, somewhere is adding two and two
and getting five.
A Londoner v Siting Omaha said that al
tho she lives almost next door to Edward VIII,
she has never met the monarch. And there are
a lot of Americans in apartments who don't
know who lives above, below, or next to them.
A Californian moved to Alaska claims
that he has found perfect happiness in that
country. He has a coal mine in his backyard;
gold in the front yard: natural waterfall on
one side; fox farm on the other; and beyond
the fox farm a garden. Maybe he'll run across
