Hear Husker
Fight Song
Bernard Gradwhol, Nebraska
alumnus, decided several years
ago that the university needed a
new song and so he began to write
the new song, "Husker Fight,"
which Henry Mattison's band will
introduce to Nebraska students
for the first time at the Union
dance tonight at 9.
"It the song is a success and is
well received on the campus I
will give the song to the univer
sity," commented Gradwohl when

in their cars and airplanes, ac
cording to Col. C. J. Frankforter,
associated professor of chemical
engineering. The new supergas
can now be produced in large
quantities but higher compression
engines are needed to properly
utilize it. These engines undoubt
edly will be constructed in the
near future.
This "110 octane" gasoline will
give appreciably more power than
the lower octane fuels. It is pre
dicted that a plane will some day
be able to fly from New York to
London on the same amount of
gasoline it now takes to fly from
Newfoundland to Londan.
At present, according to Colonel
Frankforter, some 100 octane
gasoline is being used to power
the present first-line U. S. and
British warplanes. He says that
after examining German fighters
shot down in , England, it was
found that only about 80 octane
gasoline was being used by the
Germans. Frankforter explains
that the Germans are undoubted
ly having some trouble producing
higher than 80 octane gasoline.
The "110 octane" gasoline is

Goes Patriotic
At Pitt Game
The UN band is going patriotic,
taking the field during the half
of the Nebraska-Pitt game Satur
day, the orgaization's formations
and music will follow a patriotic
theme.
Immediately after the field is
cleared, the band breaks into a
huge outlinge of the map of the
United States, plays and sings "I
Am An American." To the tune of
the "Field Artillery-' march the
group then forms a cannon, the
wheel of which turns as the men
march thru the formation.
Turning from its salute to the
army, the band then offers "hats
off," to the navy as it forms an
anchor and plays "Anchors
Aweigh." "Stars and Stripes For
ever furnishes the inspiration when
the organization portrays the U. S.
shield.
Returning to their original map
formation, a Pershing Rifle unit
will come on the field for a short
drill. With a grand finale of "I
Love a Parade" and the national
anthem, "The Star Spangled Ban

Cornhuskers
Seek Upset
Saturday
By Bob Miller.
Intent on strengthening their
meager win string at the expense
of Nebraska's Huskers on Satur
day, the Pitt Panthers, 33 men
strong, set foot inside the confines
of the Cornhusker state today,
tarrying in Omaha for an after
noon practice.
Pitt boasts of but one win for
the season, but that one was
turned in over the Fordham Rams,
last week in an upset victory that
shocked the entire nation. At the
same time the Huskers were
shocking the nation with their
stand against the Minnesota Go
phers. Hosts Short Too.
The host team can tell of but
two victories against four losses
and these two were cinch wins
over Iowa State and Kansas U.,
making previous records about
even. The edge which will be given
to the Panthers by most sports
writers comes from the fact that
