team would today be playing decid
edly second-class football, probably on
a par with the article put up by the
secondary colleges of the state. An
axiom of football which is also true
of any sort of effort is that develop
ment is directly in ratio to the com
petition which is met. Certainly the
scrubs of '17 have furnished the
varsity with a good brand of that com-
considerable mental alertness to di
gest each week a new variety of foot
ball and make it appear like the real
article. This our scrubs have done
in a more than average degree this
year. Therefore as each game was
played the varsity lined up against
old acquaintances, knowing well their
weakness and strength.
The scrubs have done all this with-
the valley men that outweigh them
not the high school competition that
they have hitherto met. It is very
unusual for a player to make the
varsity unless he has had previous ex
perience with the scrubs. His play
ing will be more versatile and pol
ished thereby and the coaches can
better develope one whom they have
seen in action. Consequently look

work properly before the student body.
Under the direction of Walter Judd
the committee was able to put the
drive across, and show the patriotism
that the students of Nebraska really
feel. The other members of the com
mittee were John Riddell, E. J. Garri
son, Ray Cowen, Kate Helzer, Ruth
Hutton and Katharine Newbranch.

necessity for correcting them, our

Made up as usual of athletes from
all parts of the state, and possessing
no partciular stars, our scrubs have
readily adapted themselves to acquir
ing team work. Before the games with
each opponent on the Nebraska sche
dule the scrubs are required to stage
the enemy formations and style for
the benefit of the varsity, and it takes
out reward in newspaper headlines or
in cheers from the students, simply
doing their duty each day with no
one sympathizing much with their
wrenches and bruises excepting Old
Jack. You cannot beat that spirit.

The $25,000 was raised at a large
mass meeting of all students and
faculty, last Friday morning, at the
city auditorium. Chancellor S. Avery,
to whose co-operation the success of
the meeting was largely due, dis
missed all 10 and 11 o'clock classes
on Friday. At 9:55 o'clock the cadet
band and regiment, the faculty and
the entire student body formed in
places on the campus, to march in a
parade to the auditorium. Chancel
lor Avery, in his opening address,
characterized the rally as one of the
largest in the history of the school
ever held by the students. The main
floor and the balcony of the auditor
ium were entirely filled, and there
was hardly standing room for all of
the students who tried to ret in.
Shows Real Nebraska Spirit
The meeting was started with real
Nebraska spirit. Dwight Thomas and
Frances Whitmore led the yells, and
Mrs. Carrie B. Roymond directed the
singing of "The Star Spangled Ban
ner." Chancellor Avery presided at
the meeting. The first speaker was
Steele Holcombe, who told about the
work of the Y. M. C. A. at the front.
Jean Burroughs talked about '-The
University Girls' Bit." John Riddell
drew a vivid picture of our men at the
front and told what we could do to
help them. Walter Judd's subject was
"Are You a Slacker?" "Nebraska's
Share," came next by. Prof. M. M.
Fogg, followed by Prof. S. Hrbkova,
on "What Next-" Dean C. C. Bug
berg told the Nebraskans how to go
"over the top."
Prof. George Condra took charge of
the meeting when the time came to
raise the money. Thames and amounts
were taken by ushers who called out
the pledges to the platform. A large
amount of the money was contributed
by organizations; nearly all of the
fraternities and sororities contributed
from one to two hundred dollars. The
University band gave the most from
any organization, in a pledge for $400.
A contribution of between fifty and
two hundred dollars was received from
nearly every other school organiza
tion. Many of the cadet companies of
both the city and farm regiments gavo
one or two hundred dollars, in addi
tion to individual subscriptions of the
men. Steele Holcombe led in the in
dividual pledges, with $500. Chancel
lor S. Avery gave $200, and there were
many $100 pledges.
The University was handicapped in
its first campaign by the absence of
Chancellor Avery, and in not being
Possibly the most important agent
on the campus in dispensing student
news and in the promotion of true Ne
braska spirit is The Daily Nebraskan,
the student paper, more commonly
known as the "Rag." For many
years past the Rag has appeared daily
with complete reports of all campus
activities.
The Nebraskan is a regular news
paper edited by students under the
control and direction of a publication
board appointed by the University.
The board consists of four faculty and
three student members. This year
the faculty members of the board are
Dean O. V. P. Stout, chairman; Prof.
H. B. Alexander, Prof. L. E. Ayles
worth and Pro. L. W. Chase.
There are three departments in the
management and edition of The Ne
braskan. These are the news, edi
torial and business departments. Ivan
G. Beede, David City, is editor-in-chief.
His duty is to exercise a general com
trol over the policy of the paper. The
managing editor, Leonard W. Kline,
Blue Springs, arranges the makeup of
the paper, directs the reporters and
is responsible for the collection of
news. There are three associate edi
tors. Fern Noble of Cheyenne, Wyo.,
Katharine Newbranch of Omaha, and
Arnold A. Wilken of Bruning. They
cover special assignments and revise
articles handed in by the other re
porters. Dwight P. Thomas is sporting edi
tor and reports all news of athletics.
George Driver, Battle Creek, la., is
business manager , and has complete
charge of the advertising and the cir
culation of the paper. His assistant
is Merrill Vanderpool of Pierce, Neb.
Eleanor Fogg, George Newton, Gay
lord Davis, Ruth Snyder, Edna Rohrs,
Harriett Ashbrook. Nellie Schwab,
Jack Landale and Lyman Meade make
up the reportorial staff.
