High Pitched
Spirit Breaks
"Cheers for the victory" rant
across the campus last night
as Cornhusker spirit boiled
over in a spontaneous demon
stration.
A small croup of enthusiastic
students raised the rally cry
which brought some 500 Hus
kers to a roaring bonfire at
16th and S. Called to the scene
by popular demand, Ray Ble
mond, varsity yell squad mem
ber, led the crowd in cheers
and songs.
The noise of firecrackers
punctuated the steady chant
"Beat Iowa State" as a snake
dance moved the throng to the
Women's Dorm and then on to
the Union.
With spirit still at a high
pitch .the crowd disbanded
promising an even greater dis
play for tonight's first official
rally.

With "N"' feathers for everyone, the traditional Victory Bell and
the university pep band will help set the mood for Nebraska's first
big football rally of the season Friday.
Students will meet in front of the Union at 7 p. m. to join in a
procession down R street to 16th, north on 16th to Vine and west
on Vine to the Coliseum, where rally leaders predict that one of the
most enthusiastic rallies in the history of Nebraska sports wil take
place.
Pep talks will be given by
Coach George "Potsy" Clark, an
other mentor and two members
of the '48 'Husker team whose
names have not been released.
Following these a demonstration
of student spirit will be led by
enercetic cheerleaders, Corncobs
and Tassels.
"The yell squad selected by the
student council last year has been
meeting and practicing 'regularly
since school convened ana tne
spirit in the squad promises to be
better than ever before," reports
Yell King Bill Mickle, adding,
"Pairs of the squad have gone
around to all the organized houses
and have been greeted with en
thusiasm and co-operation as they
led them through several cheers.
We hope that continued pep will
be a big boost to the Cornhuskers.
HUSKER DRUM MAJOR Walt Davis, Kearney, will lead the
famed Nebraska marching band of approximately 120 onto the field
Saturday for its opening performance of the year. Davis Is be
ginning his first year as drum major after serving two years as
assistant drum major. The snappy U.N. band, under the direction
of Don Lentz, will execute several formations at half-time. As in
the past. Nebraska's scarlet and cream clad marchers will be a big
factor in generating spirit and pep into the Husker rooters.
Note From a Sophomore
Freshmen Hop tickets can't
last long and the big affair
falls tomorrow night. The In
nocents booth in the Union
lobby will sell passes until late
Saturday but don't make the
mistake of waiting too long.
A' big night of dancing and
getting acquainted is all ready
to unfold and the music of
Smith and Warren will add
new tunes to the affair.
For entering students inter
ested in campus activities the
Innocents will have informa
tion booths ready to answer
questions and encourage par
ticipation. From 9 p. m. until midnight
it's a well planned get ac
quainted night full of fun and
entertainment.
