Gold Stars . . .
Altho figures are not available at the pres
ent time as to how many University of Ne
braska men have given their lives in the pres
ent war, it seems appropriate that they be
given recognition of some kind for their ac
tions as members of the United Nations'
forces.
In the last war a service flag was designed
and made with stars representing men from
this institution who had been called to the
service. Naturally this idea is impossible since
several hundred have entered the service whb
attended this school. Some method should be
devised to obtain an accurate account of each
man killed and suitable memorial made for
them.
It is not the job of the Daily Nebraskan
to plan this memorial but some student organi
zation such as the Student Council. We offer
this as a suggestion, only, and hope that it
merits consideration and thought.
The least we who are still in university
can do is enshrine the memory of those who
die so that institutions of this kind may continue.
Let's Dance . . .
Official university parties will get under
way Saturday when Corn Cobs and Tassels
sponsor their annual homecoming party. In
past years this has been a gala affair and there
is no reason to curtail subdued good times on
the campus this year.
Parties of this kind in the past have often
failed to draw a good percentage of the stu
dent body support. If we are to have any en
tertainment at all this year, it is appropriate
that it should be an all school function so that
every student who wishes to dance may do so
at a minimum of expense.
Big name bands are naturally out but if
all students will consider this a war year on
the campus and co-operate wjth groups spon
soring affairs of this kind, the parties should
be bigger and better than ever. If other
parties during the year are to have the support
of the university, it is up to each student to
support these and make this first party of the
year a success.

FirM Brigade Review
On Oct. 27; No Rifles
The customary fall parades of
the university cadet corps will be
held again this fall, according to
an announcement of the military
department The first review of
the brigade is scheduled for Oct.
27, the second Nov. 3, and the
last for Nov. 11.
Several changes are to be made
In the procedure of march on to
the field, according to Captain
Crabill, adjutant of the military
department. Since all rifles have
been sent away to training camps,
all cadets will march without arms
in this year's parades. The dis
missal of the old junior batallion
will bring about another change
in the order of march.
Since classes are meeting a half
hour later than previous years,
the parades have been scheduled
for 5:30, with dismissal at 6
o'clock. The third and last pa
rade falls on Armistice day, at
which time the cadet corps will
march down town in conjunction
with the city of Lincoln celebra
ion of that day. Further plans of
the route of march and the forma
tions will be announced at u later
date.

and has remained in that post
since.
Before coming to the state uni
versity he was superintendent of
schools in Kearney and a Mon
tana town. He also was connected
with the real estate and insurance
business for two years in Kearney.
An interesting fact to note con
cerning Professor Cochran's life is
that he was born on the site now
occupied by the university. He
had lived his entire life in Ne
braska except for a year spent in
Montana.
He was well known in teaching
circles and thruout the state, be
ing national president of one or
ganization. Professor Cochran
wrote many pamphlets, outlines,
reviews and pieces of literature
during his stay.
Well liked by many, he was
known also for his genial man
ners about the campus and many
remember pep rallies that have
echoed thruout his class room.
Surviving besides his wife, Win
ifred, are four children, Winifred,
Doris, Lt Robert " Cochran and
Roy.

Home economics majors enrolled
in home economics 271 are getting
some practical experience in addi

They are purchasing food for
the ag college cafeteria, and han
dling and dispensing the food
supplies. This type of work is
designed to aid the students in
their study of quantity buying and
cafeteria management.
Nebraska is one of several
schools in the country offering
such an opportunity. Iowa State
college has adopted a similar pro

entire nation in the armed, forces.
The Japanese in America are
just beginning to grow up. Ibata
pointed out that the average grade
of second generation Japs is
somewhere in the high school age.
Many Japanese-Americans who
can read and write their difficult
language are now interpreters in
the army.
However, most American Japa
nese can speak only a little of
the language of their forefathers.
Only a very small percentage can
read the difficult language as
there are thousands of figures
which have to be memorized. The
L'. S. government is encouraging
the loyal American Japs to learn
to write this language in the be
lief that they would learn more
readily than other Americans.
After the war Mr. Ibata believes
his people will be of immeasurable
aid in the reconstruction period.
"We at the university are very
appreciative of the attitude of the
administration and students to we
Americans of JaJpanese descent.
We have been treated excellently,"
Ibata commented. "The article by
the editor of The Daily Nebraskan
in the Sept. 22 issue was very
gratifying."
Beeaui-e of Rally Friday;

Since the homecoming rally is
scheduled for 7:30 Friday evening,
Franklin White, president of Corn
Cobs, request that all organized
houses having hour dances sched
uled for that evening move the
time of starting ahead to 8 p.m.
This will help materially in pro
ducing a good rally before the
important game Saturday, White

Mortar Board
Revises Loan
Fund Ruling
Women Students May
Apply for Short Term
Loans During Semester
With a revision in the fund
rules, Mortar Board announces
that women students may apply at
any time during the semester for
short term loans in the office of
the dean of women.
The fund, established several
years ago and administered by
Mortar Board, was begun in order
that women students, incurring
expenses such as tuition and books
and finding themselves unable to
pay them at the time, may meet
such obligations.
The average amount of the loans
has been $10 to $15, tho students
may borrow more or less, accord
ing to their individual needs. No
interest is charged.
Women students wishing to use
the Mortar Board should apply in
person to Mrs. Ada Westover, as
sistant to the dean of women.
