Students Follow Pigskin To Lincoln and Victory?
The pulling power of the Nebraska game practically swept the Hill bare of students who made the 200 mile trek to Lincoln on the theory that the 26th defeat for Kansas would be just that much too much.
The scarcity of prospective Varsity dancers was so obvious that Keith Spalding, president of the Union Activities Board, postponed it until a later date.
Women were forced to make a decision between two extremes in formality, the Beta fall formal or the Phi Gam tacky party.
Harking back to the days of chivalry, the Phil Gams pulled the skeleton out of the dungeon and set it clanking through their medieval castle — formerly the ballroom. Tackily dressed knights and their fair ladies shot through the palace gates on an unexpected shute. Toll gate fee was one kiss.
The chaperones were Mrs. Edith Martin, Chi Omega housemother; Mrs. C. D. Howe, Kappa Housemother; and Mrs. Nelle M. Hopkins, Phi Psi housemother, Clayton Harbur and his band furnished the music for dancing.

York, An American Hero
In These Days When Folks Are Becoming Ever Increasingly America-Conscious, It Is Fitting That the Story of One of the Greatest Americans of the World War Should Be Hailed. That Man is Alvin C. York, Whose Amazing War Feats Included the Capture of 132 Germans Single-handed and Who Was Called the "Greatest Civilian Soldier of the War" by General Pershing.
The Story Is Vividly Depicted in "Sergeant York" Which Is Being Shown at the Jayhawker Theatre With the Famous Title Role Portrayed by the Powerful Actor, Himself Often Called a "Typical American," Gary Cooper.
Engineer Seniors Attend Convention
Fourteen senior electrical engineers left Lawrence yesterday for St. Louis, where they will spend the week attending the southwest district convention of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers and visiting local industrial plants.
This year's trip was scheduled early in order that the students might attend the convention. Present defense rules are strict, and only convention representatives will be allowed to visit the power plants. It was necessary to certify the citizenship and University enrollment of each member before the visit permit was granted. The engineers are to return next Saturday.
Shortage of teachers in music and physical education, because of selective service and centralization of schools, is noted by directors of these departments at Ithaca College.
