Tough Schedule: The fact that the Panthers have lost five games seems to make some think that they do not have much back at the. former football capital.. But when the losses were to Purdue, Michigan, Minnesota, Duke and Ohio State, they take on a new light for this is, as lias been appropriately termed, a "suicide schedule" .. .Then came the Ford ham game which the Panthers won in tine stle . . .T'.iis makes six tough ganus and add to it, Ne braska, Penn State and Carnegie Tech in sii'.'ct ssive week-ends... Well, thai makes a tough schedule on any one's books. In six games this season the Huskers have won two anil lost four and in doin;; so, they have lolled up 05 points to their op ponents' 4S...In the same num ber for Pitt, the latter has won one and lost five but have scored 31 points to their opponents' 133. With the aid of a division sign we see that Nebraska has aver aged 11 points per game as op posed to their foes' 8 point aver aage...As for Pitt, their record isn t quite so interesting with an average of 5 points ind 22 for the foes. . .Incidentally, in a Pitts burgh sports section was seen this jibe: "At last, the Panthers are finally reaching the easy spot on their schedule." Time will tell lots of things about this statement. Spirit troubles. California is having ti'oiible with spirits And not liquid type, either. . .It seems Brooklyn Dodger Fans of the West" just send their pep along the wrong lines . . . They have a particularly engaging yell that comes only when there is a penalty marked up against them... They count off the yard age along with the ref, "One, two, three, four, five- you - " . . . The part that is lensored here, is not censored in their version and their version has official-netting powers. Bud Higgins, mite-sized Uni versity of Minnesota back, has the Indian sign over Harvard . . . Seems that several years ago, Higgins had a great desire to go to Harvard and he had the grades that could make the requirements . . . Dick Harlow, Harvard coach, was interested for rumor had it that Higgins coul'l ploy football so he con tacted alumni . . . The alumni did not look into the rumor and so Higgins went to Minne sota . . . After the scat-back's showing against Northwestern, Harlow is really hollering for he figures that Higgins could ju;t as well have been doing the same for Harvard. y Jottings. After the Muskr-K State game, Minnesota scout reported back that (1) the Huskers substitute by the team system and (2) they have three teams of near equal strenelh . . . Amazing, isn't it? I . . . Tom Harmon can'i make up j his mind . . . Getting off the plane j in Hollywood, he was greeted by I the 'one and only" but couldn't ! decide whether or not he would I kiss ... He didn't but added that ! he would ask her a very important question very soon ... It seems to I us that he had better get to the ! stage where he can bid her hello 1 in the proper manner before popping any questions. Spooks (Continued from Page 1.)

Di rector of this film was the Ger man stage-designer Paul Leni and its mysterious lighting effects and wierd camera angles are typical of the Herman artist's work. "(lay nineties" atmosphere will again dominate "between reel" entertainment. It e c o r d i n g s of Beatrice Kay';', plaintive warblings will be broadcast over the public address system. There will be the usual wailing in peanut husks and the usual "Piano niokelodion" music of Russ Gibson. Identification cards will be de quired for admission to the show, one identification to a couple. The entire program is under the direc tion of the Union entertainment committee, Garaldine Henderson, chairman.

In general, students are benefited rather than retarded by being in formed of their mental ability lest scores, research by Dean R. K. clnred they would not vounteer if England and France were in dan ger of defeat and the United States declared war on their enemies. In the present poll southern students appear to be the most bellicose, those in New England and the west central states the least. In no section, however, was a ma jority found who would volunteer. On the question of deferrment's for college men the general public agrees with the majority on the campus. In April the Gallup poll reported 69 per cent in favor of allowing them to complete their education before being made to nerve. . . . Says Dr. Complin Comptin of the general science di vision at South Dakota Stale col lege indicates. Dr. Comptin, who also heads the college psychology department, recently completed a survey in volving 1,331 students from 27 dif ferent colleges. Knowledge of the scores result ed in possible detrimental atti tudes in only 4 to 6 percent of the students tested. He observed that students who had estimated their ability higher than the test indi cated apparently derived less bene fit from the knowledge than those who had underestimated their in telligence. Dr. Comptin advises that test results probably should not be made known to students unless this knowledge is accompanied by adequate counseling service at the same time. p. e.itf T- v. w K 3 I x 1 v kJ iff i rSf v ' iUI W i $750 , A rss'
