SAVING SUGAR
noginniiiK today, tho Vnivorsity
cafeteria will serve sugar in l;por
1 ackasos, charging one rent ier pack
age, instead of serving it in bowls on
the tables. This method has been
taken at the request of professors
and students, who eating regularly
at the cafeteria, have realized that an
enormous quantity of sugar was be
ing wasted.
Prices at the cafeteria are such that
expenses are barely covered. The
cafeteria wil lnot save money for it
self. Those who eat there will have
money saved for them, as the cafe
teria, not obliged to serve an unlimited
amount of sugar to everyone, will
possibly be able to lower some of the
present prices.
With our soldiers abroad actually
suffering from the lack of sugar (Lin
coln boys have written home begging
for sugar, with our allies Strictly
limiting themselves to six ounces a
week per person, these are university
students scooping at each meal as
much as twenty-two spoonsful into
their coffee or tea and upon their
food. One man mixes a half glass of
sugar with enough water to fill the
glass and drinks such a mixture at
every meal.
There is no excuse for such a care
lessness today. Even though such
habits were formed when the supply
of sugar was not scant, it would seem
that any University student would
long ago have condemned himself and
broken the habit. If he does not- it
is only natural that he will be classed
as pro-German. No American would
admit that a fellow-countryman could
not stop such a silly yet serious habit
if he wished to.
The Daily Nebraskan hopes all
cafes and cafeteries in Lincoln will
follow the plan of the University cafe
teria. Boarding houses, fraternity
houses, sorority houses, should limit
the supply of sugar they use. If such
extravagance is allowed, the govern
ment will soon be obliged to require
of us what we should have offered
unasked.

LINCOLN,
MAKE ANNOUNCEMENTS
FOR SUMMER SESSION
(Continued from Page One)
summer one may carry nine hours
the first week and then four hours for
the special course. Classes In French,
Spanish, home economics, manual
training and mathematics will be con
tinued to make the courses complete.
This has been arranged to fit the
present crisis in school conditions.
The lack of trained tvachers Is so ap
palling that the University is using
this means to meet the emergency.
In this way, students who lack several
hours towards graduation can finish
their course and obtain pood positions
for next year.
' The demand for tea. hers of French
and Spanish tw replace German, and
for domestic sc ience and manual train
ing is so great that these departments
cannot find enough people to take the
positions. The summer school courses
will prepare partially trained teachers
to fill these places next winter.
THE COLLEGE WORLD
"SANA MENS IN CORPORE SANO"
When war wis declared last April
many 'jniversuies cancelled their
schedules for athletic games with
other colleges. As a result President
Wilson spoke these words to American
universities.
"I hope that sports will be contin
ued ... as a real contribution to
the national defense. For our young
men must be made physically fit and
exhibit the vigor and alertness which
fe are proud to be characteristic of
young men."
We have resumed our athletic con
tests but the message still has an ap
plication. Only an exceedingly small
fraction of the students are able to try
out for the university teams; under
classmen are required to take "gym"
twice every week. But for upperclass-
men. and for underclassmen five days
out of seven, there is no inducement
to keep ia physical training. Of course
students are compelled to move about
from one class room to another; but
would anyone seriously contend that
the physical "vigor and alertness' of
which the president speaks can be
developed and maintained by this
meager activity," There are faei.itJes
in the gymnasium to enable every ftu
dent to take regular daily exercise.
Prospect for Itetter thowers are grow
ing. And if there are not facilities in
the gymnasium there is the lake and
all-out-of-doors. To the student who
relieves that I'hrs-KUl tra'.ning should
petition last year when nearly 100
girls took part in the practices whi.h
were held twice daily, but- this year
the addition of the inter-sorority and
non-sorority tournaments greatly in
creased the experience and skill of
the teams.
The meet will be staged under the
auspices of the Women's Athletic as
sociation members of which hope that
every girl in college will come out Sat
urday to watch her class team play
for the championship of the schorl.
In the first round the senior first
team wfl play the sophomores, and
the juniors will play the freshmen. Of
the second teams, the seniors will play
the juniors and t-he sophomores the
freshmen.
Captains may select any member
of her squad, first, second or sub, to
p'ay on her first team, as all players
are capable of playing on that team.
The first team players will be
awarded H'fl points, with an additional
fifty points to winners, in the Wom
en's A.'hletic association; second
team players will receive fifty points,
with an additional twenty-five points
to winners. Twenty-five points go to
subs.
