Ono of the m'ontost college events
of the year will take, place next Satur
day, October 30. Tills Is tho Mlssourl
Nebraalm foot ball game. It Ih pnln
fully true that thus far this season
there has been no attempt at organ
ized rooting. Some prompt measures
must be adopted for this big contest.
Nebraska ought to have at least 101)
trained rooters placed together on the
side lines. With a competent leader
and some good voices, they ought to
make a noise that would stir a wooden
Indian to action. An attempt will be
made by the management to perfect
such a nucleus of rooters. College
men should make etforts to make this
game truly characteristic or college
lire.
A few words apropos or college eti
quette may not bo out of placo at this
time of rooting and cheering. There
is no excuse whatever for an outcry,
or In rnct any demonstration, when
an opponent makes n bad play. De
risive yelling has no place on an ath
letic Held. A crowd of students who
will Indulge themselves this way show
their lack of manners and disgrace
themselves huforo a college and public
audience. It la true that Nebraska has
had good examples to follow In this
respect, but as she reckons herself
llrst among colleges of the West, she
should conduct hersolf In a way be
fitting this position.
The recent death or the scholar,
Chnrlos A. Dana, strikes from the list
of living American journnllsts Its
greatest name. A journalist, and at
the same time a strong student of
humanity, he was a welcome contribu
tor to the world of letters. His edu
cation was obtained only nftor over
coming almost insurmountable (11111
culties. Language was his specialty,
and he early published translations
from the (iermnn. His life was char
acterized by high Ideals and scholarly
attainments.
The "rooting" at last Monday's
game was generally good. Keep It up.
But be careful you do not drown out
tho signals. Go to the gamo tomor
row confident that your lung power
will help WIN.
From time Immemmorlal "Wes
leyan" haB had an ambition and ard
ent desire to down tho "State" In foot
ball. Extensive preparations have
heen made to accomplish this this sea
son. The comparatively close gamo of
last year, together with "Wesleyan's"
treatment of Tarklo. will mako the
game Interesting to say tho least.
"Wesleyan" did "down us" once In
oratory In her palmy days, but In root
ball, never. The spirit of the "never"
as far as Nebraska is concerned must
be carried out.
That the people of a commonwealth
appreciate tho work of prominent edu
cators Is shown by tho reception ten
dered President Sloeum of Colorado
College on September 30. Fully 3,000
persons filed through the corridors of
tho hotel to grasp the hands of Mr.
Sloeum and evince their personnl
sense of nppiwlutlon. President Hlo
cum was presented with an cngroHsed
copy of resolutions ndopted In honor
of tho occnslon, signed by tho governor
and many prominent oIUzohh of Col
orado. Dr. Hlor'im received n very
urgent call to the pronldoncy of Ohor
llu, but declined and will remain with
Colorado College.
The faculty of tho University or
Iowa are uiIukHuk with college ath
letics. Tho following declaration of
eligibility must lie ttlgnod by "very
student who represents thai Institu
tion In athletics:
1, , hereby deolare:
(a) That I am a bona lido Hliident or
the Slate University or Iowa.
(b) That I have never received com
pensation, directly or Indirect ly. for
participation in athletic contests al
any educational Institution.
(el That I have nevor, ill rod ly or
Indirectly, offered my athletic abilities
to be used by any educational Institu
tion's athletic team, Tor compensation,
(d) That I have received no Intima
tion that I will bo tendered compensa
tion for my present connection with
athletics which I have not reported to
the athletic committee or this Institu
tion. te) That 1 have not received an of
fer or compensation from a student of
any educational Institution for my ath
letic abilities which I have not re
ported to the athletic commlttco or
this Institution.
(f) That I understand the word
"compensation," as used In this dec
laration, to mean a valuable considera
tion or any sort, such as money, valu
able commodities, unduly lucrative
employment, the payment of any or
my expenses (other than those allowed
under the Amateur Athlotlc union
rules) or any benollts or any kind
which I could not have received had
1 not been an athlete.

ltlLlOY'S RAG.
The chapel bell was ringing wet,
As with a visage grim and sot
A youth climbed up the Icy stair
And shouted to the Rtudents there,
"Head ltlley's Uag.'
The wind blow through his curly hair,
It made tho student's stop and stare.
As with a llorce, blood-curdling yell.
Ho screamed," I have them here to sell.
Head Hlloy's Hag."
And as the students passed along
They stopped and gathered in a throng
Before the mall box In tho hall
And each one swiped a Hag, and all
Head Hlloy's Hag.
And ltlloy stood and took It In,
And grinned a cold, sardonic grin.
And thought. "This Is a solemn joke."
In accents wild again ho spoke,
"Head Hlloy's Hag."
Hut soon there came a, 'nppy day
When all the students llockea to pay.
And Hlloy's joy can't be described.
For all the students had subscribed
For Hlloy's Hag.
MORAL:
Why go through college Ignorant?
Tho price Is not oxhcrU ant:
Don't doubt Its popularity.
Hut join the great majority.
Read Riley's Hag.
