THE DAILY NEBIUSKAN, SUNDAY. OCTOBER 16, 1938
Tis Better to Have Plaved
And Tied, Than Never to Hove
Played at All' Ling Po
Nebraska bounced out from behind the
eight-ball in traditional fashion yesterday to
tshove Indiana's Hoosiors nl over the playing
Held. Unfortunately for the Cornhuskers, they
lacked the necessary scoring punch to break
the deadlock.
The zephyrs whipping around Memorial
Rtadium nullified llerm Hohrig's four at
tempted placements, each of them going wide
of the crossbars. Penalties comprised another
break for the Hoosiers, but the black-uniformed
"pore little boys" failed to cash in on
any breaks.
No once did Indiana get beyond Nebras
ka's 32 yard line, a fact that speaks well for
the llusker defensive line. Nebraska, however,
had four scoring opportunities, once penetrat
ing to the lloosier five-yard stripe. Ity over
two to one, Nebraska out rushed the Indiana
eleven.
All in all,' the Jones Boys played a brand
of heads-up football for which no Scarlet and
Cream fans can be ashamed. Nebraska, despite
the double-zero score, was the best team on
the field. Add the scoring punch and drive to
the rapidly improving line play that was evi
dent yesterday and watch the llnskers go
steam-roller against Oklahoma next week.
Helen Jones
Wins Contest
Spanish Student Sends
In Best Lab Decoration
First prize winner in the con
test held last week to find the best
plan for decoration of the newly
opened phonetics laboratory in
University hall is Helen Jones, a
Spanish 1 student. Dr. Willis
Bowen, chairman of the judging
committee, announced yesterday.
Awarded to the winner is a col
ored reproduction, for framing, of
Velasquez' Infanta Marguerita of
Spain. Second prize, a choice of
an Ivon etching of "L'lle de la
Cite" or a large photograph of
the Oortile del Palazzo Vecchio di
Kirenze, goes to Josephine Chnm
bcrlin, a French 1 student. The
remaining award, as third prize,
will be given to Betty Kingery,
also a French 1 student.
Display of Trophies.
Tending redecoration according
to the winning plans, the labora
tory is hung with a display of the
artistic trophies brought back
from Mexico by Mr. John Ham
mond. In this exhibit the center
of attraction is a collection of col
orful reproductions of contempo
rary Mexican artists' portrayals
of Mexican legend and history.
Of particular interest is a paint
ing in dusky tones of the legen
dary founding of Mexico, showing
a group of people probably natives
of the central plains of North
America, who have traveled south
as their gods had commanded un
til they now stand before an eagle
with a snake in its mouth hovering
over a cactus plant. This odd
omen, which has since become the
national symbol, is also displayed
in a large, vividly colored rug,
considered the cream of Mexican
art.
Popular Song Sheets.
Song sheets bearing the words
to political songs now popular in
Mexico and emblazoned with pic
tures of Mexican President Car
denas are included in the exhibit,
along with long and colorful travel
folders lauding the country.
Open house every afternoon
from 4:30 to 5:30, where students
may come to drink tea and "soak
up atmosphere" will continue to
be held in the laboratory, U hall,
room 7 after the room has under
gone redecoration.

Talent Drive
Students Respond to
Plea for New Faces
Over fifty students from the
various colleges on the campus
have registered for the University
Players' tryouts being held Oc
tober 17 and 18 in the Temple
Theater under the leadership of
Miss Alice Howell, head of the
University Department of Speech.
The privilege of participating in
some of the plays has been
opened to students not studying
dramatics for the first time in
many years.
Miss Howell expressed, "The pur
pose of the tryouts is to extend
interest and opportunities to those
enjoying the theatre. In the past
years many law students had parts
in the plays.
"The number of students attend
ing the theater this year is defin
itely on the increase, and we hope
that by allowing more to appear in
the actual productions greater In
terest may be promoted."
During the season, those who
seem suitable for various roles will
have a chance to act in both the
shows presented by the University
Flayers and the Children's Theater.
After each person tries out, a rec
ord of his talent will be made.
When a part suited to his type
comes up, he will be notified and
given a chance at the role.
