Freshman Women Must Vote Again
Because of mistakes in counting the last election, the freshman women will elect officers for vice-president and secretary Thursday. The second floor of the Administration building from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m.
According to Ruth Learned, president of the W.S.G.A., the elector count methods are as follows:
Candidates for vice-president are Julaid Elison, Marraine Grey, Catherine Elrke, Ann Reynolds and Margaret Charles. Candidates for secr. to the Smart, Velma Wilson, Denise Linden, Fergus Lynch and Isabel West.
"In counting the votes, if no candidate for an office has enough votes, the name of the woman with the fewest is thrown out, and the votes are redistributed among the remaining candidates. This process is continued until one of the candi dates has enough votes to win.
"Thus, the winner will be the choice of the largest number, although not the first choice of all voters."

Suzanne Sawyer, Guest Conductor
One of the Kanas "shot" who is a stickler for accuracy discovered that Asher was not covering the Varsity last Saturday. He hurried down and found that some sort of a drawing had been made. He got the names and hurried back just in time to catch the Sunday edition going to press. He got the note from his teacher, but he would pass them to the Granada. They didn't. They won free bids to the freshman Frolic. He had not the courage to face the Reporting I students yesterday.
The Theta annex—ex P. A. D. house—had an unexpected guest this weekend when one Don Phillips, a visiting D.U. and P.A.D., gave him the impression it was still the same old place. This suspicion was confirmed when he heard feminine voices on the second floor. Investigating, he found that he had been returned to Chelby discomposite.
The quaintly termed hot-spots of the village were decidedly crowded this weekend. As nice an assortment of blottos, singing Nebraskans and what not as we have ever seen were there. Poor Dave Partridge claims he had a difficult time getting a seat.
Once again the more important papers in this area are in error. Readers of these sheets were led to the fact that the machines for bore Sante Fe railroad buttons, but such is not the case. Bob Richardson had the only one. "I didn't object when they made me look like a street-car condenser," he said on Friday. "in the day, 'but putting three conductors' buttons on was the last straw."
The Beech-Nut boys of Kansas and Nebraska got together Saturday and had quite a time. Distributing problems were discussed, and our own Friedland probably told of the difficulty he had in getting into the army when his boys of giving something away in the Pi Phi domicile. Note to Chet: we expect some compensation for this... say a few packages..
There's another embarrassed fellow on the Hill. He, under the stars, made much love to the gail with him. It ended with the state-creating gail. Of course the fact that the girl told him at this point that she was engaged to a fellow who's away may have had something to do with it.
Really, though, we think young Asher should leave that fellow, David, alone. He's utterly charming...

Reports on all students in the College who are having scholastic difficulties are due in the College office today.
The College Office stresses the importance of this advising period and urges all students, no matter what they think their grades to be, to see their advisers.
Junions and seniors who are falling in their work or have very low grades will be notified by mail. They need not, therefore, inquire at the College of office.
All freshmen and sophomores should consult their advisers. The mid-s semester period of advising for them begins on Wednesday at 10 a.m. to the beginning of the Thanksgiving holidays.

War Propaganda, Pro and Con. Dealt to Public in 'Bury the Dead'
By Kenneth Postlethwaite, c.38
War propaganda, pro and con, was dealt to the theater-going public in liberal doses at the premier of "Bury the Dead" in Fraser Theater last night.
Pacifists squirmed in their seats during the curtain raiser, one act play, "Four Days Leave," which depicted the plight of a British monarch in 1830, in which he converted his fiancee to the glory of war and marriage.
Militarists squirmed longer and more uncomfortably throughout the feature production of the evening, "Bury the Dead." This uncanny story concerned itself with six men who, though dead, refused to lie

It must be taken into consideration, however, that a Kansas team usually plays its best game against the Nebraska eleven. Each Jayhawk team wants to be the first to break the long Cornhusker jinx, and the team this year is no exertion.
In spite of the lack of heavy scrimage this week the Jay-hawker roster is still studded with injuries.

NUMBER 42
By Horace Mason. c37
The Rose Bowl, Journey's End football team, is the object of Nebraska's affections this year. Peremial rulers of the Big Six, the mighty Cornhuskers have made the New Year's classic their goal and are now in sight of their objective. Looming up before them is one formidable rival, Pitt. If the Cornhuskers can overcome the Panthers of Jock Sutherland they will stand on a rock to play in Pasadena Jan. 1. Defeat at the hands of Pitt would mean a dissolution of Nebraska's hopes.
The Panthers are undeniably one of the country's strongest teams but the Huskers are hoping that their own strong team, and the fact that they will be played at Lincoln, will be enough to turn the victory to Nebraska.
The only blot on the Nebraska record this year is the 7-0 defeat handed them by Minnesota. This will not weigh heavily against the Huskers however because of the calibre of the Minnesota team. Also the fact that Nebraska played the Gophers on even terms until the second round game when a 76-yard return of a punt gave Minnesota the victory.
Only Minnesota Defeat
Another goal which Nebraska is hoping to achieve is the placing of a player on the All-American team, and that man is Sam Francis, 219-pound fullback. Francis' play this year has been of all-American calibre and a dearth of outstanding backbacks makes him a likely choice for the next season. Geel redd, best backfield ease of the Purdue Bollermakers.
Francis is as versatile a backfield man as any coach could desire. He is a fast, smashing plunger. He is an outstanding kicker and this season has seen him develop into a crack passer as well. His work in backing up the line has been outstanding.

Jayhawker-Cornhusker Rivalry Started With Kansas Victory 44 Years Ago
A rivalry that started in 1892, and which has produced more than its share of excitement, will be resumed Saturday afternoon on Memorial Field when the Nebraska Cornhuskers help (we hope) the Jayhawks climax home-coming.
Way back in 1892 the boys used to throw everything but bouquets at each other and, strange as it may seem the Kansas ruffians snatched the
Kansas State Ahead in Big Six Scoring Race
Kansas State college, the lowest scoring football team in the Big Six conference last year, is leading the rest of the conference this year. The Wildcats have played in six games and made a total of 84 points.
Nebraska is three points behind the Wildcats, but has played only five games. Iowa State has scored 66 points in six games; Missouri, 35 in five games; Kansas, 32 in five games; Oklahoma, 29 in six games.
From the defensive point of view, 16 points have been made against Nebraska, Kansas 67, Iowa State 58, Missouri, 50, Kansas State 36, and Oklahoma 27. No points have been made against Nebraska in conference tilt.
Coach Don Faurot, University of Missouri grid mentor, revealed that he had lost the services of three veterans. A fourth one has not reported for practice recently but it is expected that he will return.

g game from their northern playmates 12 to 0. The two teams remained even for their first seventeen games, including the names they called each other. However in 1910 the Nebraska had gone far ahead of far enough, and have won every game with the exception of the 1916 upset since that time.
"Ungentlemanly Sluggers"
The 1887 game was one of the more lively struggles between the two teams and resulted in the Kansas boys leaving the team for other things, badly hurt. The Kansas referred to the Nebraska team as a set of ungentlemenly slugs and Coach Woodruff challenged the Bug Eaters (Nebraksa's nickname) to a game the following Monday which would be played from sunrise to sunset Luckily for both teams, the Nebraska generous offer and the final score stood. 10 to 5 for Nebraska.
Another game which caused a discontinuance of the rivalry for three years was the 1903 struggle. The Kansas coach that year was Harold Weeks and when Mr. Weeks disagreed with the officiating too strongly, he called his team from the field. This caused Nebraska much anguish and they decided not to play Kansas again until the Jayhawks learned better manners in 1906 and Nebraska accepted their apology. Then the Jayhawks turned on the Bug Eaters and beat them 8-6.
"No School Spirit"
In 1914 the Kansans won all their games up to the Nebraska game, and appeared to be in good shape for that struggle. However Steitmeh, the Nebraska coach had other ideas, and steamrolled the Jayhawks 35-0. The Kansas coach, W. R. Wheaton, the loss on lack of school spirit.

Nebraska Corn Husked by Kansas Back in 1916
Jayhawkers Successful After Exciting Game In Which Ad Lindsey Was Captain
We beat Nebraska! We beat Nebraska! Those were the incredible words which were on the lips of every University of Kansas student when the Jayhawks beat the haughty Nebraskans in 1916.
It was the first Nebraska conference defeat since 1912, and undefeated by Kansas since 1909 when Tommy Johnson raced sixyrd to a touchdown in the last three minutes of combat.
The game was played on a fas field under a clear sky and a balmy atmosphere. Kansas kicked off to the cornhuskers who began a steady march down the field, using their famous shift play. Before the Kansas team solved that shift, the Huskers had come within striking disarray. The Huskies Corey, the scrappiest man on the Nebraska team, booted a place kick over the goal. That was the last cornhusker score of the day.
Between halves, the Cornhuskers crowed in typical Cornhusker style. It was plainly evident that the majority of Kansas roots were unpleasantly surprised, and they were beginning to wonder if Nebraska really was the only Can in Football Alley.
In the second quarter, a series of line plunges and end runs brought the ball within a few yards of the Nebraska goal. Just as the Kansas roots were screaming wildly for their team to "pitch it over," some Jayhawk warrior fumbled, and the team ended up in the first half, Captain Ad Lindey's pants were the main cog in the Jayhawk defense.
In the third quarter Kansas worked the ball down the field again, using a spread formation on every play, and pushed Nielson over the heads of everyone for the glorious touchdown; the first touchdown Kansas had made against the Cornhuskers since 1909. Immediately after the touchdown the Kansas rosters tempted to tear down the grand-stade.
Toward the end of the game, the Nebraskans began plunging down the field at a rapid rate, only to have Tom Pringle intercept a forward pass. He was down on the fifty-yard line and as he rolled off the ball, the final whistle blew. Kansas won 7 to 3.
The Kansas starting line up against Nebraska in 1916 were Reid,
