HOMECOMING, DADS
DAY AT UNIVERSITY.

Two important occasions will at
tract people to the University of
Minnesota campus during the next two
weekends.
The first, this Saturday, is home
coming, when the Golden Gophers meet
Northwestern in game that may de-
termine the Gophers' chances at an
other Big Ten and national champion
ship title. Ely prognoticators believe
Northwestern a tougher club than
Michigan (Which was plenty tough)
and point to the fact that on two oc-
casions the Purple has kept Minnesota
from Western conference title.
The second event is dads day,
Saturday, Nov. 8, on which fathers of
students will be guests of their sons
and daughters. Nebraska, one of Min
nesota's oldest traditional rivals, will
meet the Gophers as the feature at
traction of the day. Twin ceremonies
will be conducted just before the
game honoring Minnesota men in the
armed forces of the nation, and also
postponed recognition of navy day
A dads day dinner is scheduled for
6 p. m. at which Lucius Smith, Fari-
bault, father of the star halfback Bruce
Smith, will speak on behalf of visiting
fathers.

To Correct Mistake
in NelUs of Accident.

Misinformation given the newspapers
on the car accident which befell Dick
Madden, driver, Rose Yakich, Chester
Kidd, and Chester Thoren, made it
appear that excessive speed lost con-
troll of the car which somersaulted.
The rs miles an hour attributed as
the cause of the accident, the somer-
saulting of the car and the presence
of Mrs. Yakich in the car were the
errors made in reporting the accident.
Investigation showed that the car
blew tire which caused it to swerve
badly but did not turn it over. Also
that the young people in the car were
taking a ride and not going anywhere
in particular and that Mrs. Yakich
was not a member of the party. In
short the accident was caused by the
blowout of the tire and luckily no
one was seriously injured. Had the
car been travelling at rs miles an hour
there would have been more serious
results is certainty.
