Entered at the poatofllce at Lincoln, Nebraska, as
second class mail matter under the Act of Congress of
March 3, 1879.
Most of the troubles we expect never happen, or are
not half as bad as we expect them to be.
Freshman caps should be conspicuous today.
The registration has been bo large that some, who were
so unfortunate as to have a late registration hour assigned
them, will have to finish registration today. The enor
mous yearly increase in attendance necessitates serious
consideration of the rooming problem, and though second
semester registration seems far distant at present, anyone
with foresight can see that It is not too early to plan for
the future.
Today, when classes begin, new experiences will begin
for everyone. The actual facts that are learned from text
books are very important indeed, but far more important
are the experiences which come with the grasping of
these facts.
A STORY
"Once upon a time" there Jived a middle-aged professor
who was very, very scholarly. He knew his Bubject from
"a" to the end of the alphabet, and those Imaginary twenty
six letters were strung together and formed a little pen
around his thoughts and life so that he considered all
those who knew nothing of his subject, very, very inferior.
One day, during a recitation, he took occasion to disdain
fully inform the student who was speaking, that he cer
tainly had an "imagination." The student was affected as
only biting sarcasm can affect, and at that moment made
up his mind that he would show the professor a "thing
or two." Today he is a well known writer and has realized
success because of this imagination of his.
Let's imagine a little more and not take things as
prosaically as they seem.
An Appeal to Football Men
Where is the Nebraska spirit? That
spirit that has been so much in evi
dence other years. That spirit that
has driven former Nebraska teams to
victory from seeming defeat, that will
never quit nor be conquered. That
spirit which in former years has
caused Nebraska men to give up long
cherished ambitions, to make great
sacrifices and to fight for their Alma
Mater as long as they were able. The
Bpirit which heretofore has brought
out great numbers of men in response
to the call for football warriors. Is it
dead, or only asleep? Something is
surely wrong. For the first time in
years there are not enough men of
the upper classes out to make two full
teams.
In Kansas they have from fifty to
sixty varsity candidates out every
night.- Notre Dame has four full

teams of varsity men for every prac
tice. At California, where football
has been in use only two years, there
have been around two hundred and
fifty, and at Oregon, a school much
smaller than Nebraska, they have
fifty or more. And Nebraska has
twenty-twd varsity candidates.
This is a deplorable state of affairs
and must be remedied if Nebraska is
to hold the high position in football
which she has gained in the last few
years.
Coach Stewart says, "A school the
size of Nebraska and with her reputa
tion should have three times as many
upperclassmen out as have reported
so far. Such spirit, in .reporting in
such small numbers, is what will spell
defeat for Nebraska quicker than any
one other thing." A statement such
as that puts it up squarely to every
upperclassmen with any athletic
ability whatever to get out there on
the field and do his best to make the
team. The coach has promised that
every man that gets out will be given
every possible chance to show what
kind of jroods he can deliver. And as
a little secret between you and us,
we'll tell you that a little bird told us
not to tell, but that there are three or
four places on the team, to fill which
the men have not as yet appeared.
Let's all do our best, and if there
is any one we know who ought to be
out on the field, let's get him there.
All the old high school players ought
to be out this afternoon and help give
Nebraska a team that is worthy to
represent the great university which
so far has always brought nothing but
honor ttud glory to her fair name. '

of Munn was a feature as was the de

the week Dick hopes to have a team
out of his raw material which will
make the varsity go at its best when
the two teams meet Saturday.
The addition of two eligible varsity
men 1b looked for this week, DobBon
and Proctor, both of whom are at pres

Maloney will also be out.
Much gossip is heard these days
about the new system of play In which
there is no regular center And there
are Ave backfleld men. One of the
backfleld men passes the ball side
ways and then gets into the. Interfer
ence. This will be a real Innovation
in Missouri valley football and ought
to be very effective, since a change
can be made to the old form, with a
center and four backfleld men, at any
time.
