A FRESHMAN SCHEDULE.
Tin suggestion presented by tlic
Daily Nebraskun recently to liave a
regular football schedule for the fresh
nan football team should meet with
the heartiest approval of University
of Nebraska students. In the fresh
man team the University relies entire
ly for its future teams and the fii'.u
year men should be given every
chance to improve their football tact
ics. The better freshman team there
is, the better the next year's varsity
squad will be.
In all of the high schools of the
state where there are enough foot
ball and basketball candidates to war
rant more than one team, the second
team is given a schedule of games
with teams of its class. Many of these
Ramos are played as preliminaries to
the bigger games but many are with
teams from small schools and the
second stringers take a trip while
the first team battles either on home
or foreign ground.
A schedule for the University of Ne
braska freshman squad could be so
arranged as to have one or two con
tests played as preliminaries to big
games possible with the freshman
squad from the varsity opponents'
echol. Then there could be several
games with teams from the many
smaller colleges in the state and pos
sibly the University of Nebraska
freshman might be able to get a rat
ing in the state conference.
Such a schedule would give to thn
first year men a further incentive to
work hard. And the harder the fresh
men work, the harder the varsity
must work and a better football team
will result. The constant drubbings
which the freshmen take from the
varsity are enough to entitle the fresh
men to reward in the nature of a
football schedule.
Hut holes can servo a better pur
pose. There In a utory going the round
ol a hole that produced results. In a
iniall town there was a new building
being tretted. Acroi.s the street there
was a vacant lot. At tho same time as
the filial touches were being put on
Hie building, a group of men appeared
on tho vacant lot and began to di
a hole. They dug for several days with
out uttering u sound. Queries of pas
sc. by who asked what the purpose
of the l"!e was, failed to produce re
suits. The dinners responded with
very unsatisfactory answers. The mor
l 'icv duff the more people watched
them.
Finally the building across th
si rift w;i8 finished. When the final
ti uches had been nlace.l on it, th
'Jiggers acro.w the street laid (low
their spades and went home. The nex
('ay the following sign appeared a
I he bottom of the hole. "The Majostl
Theater will Open in the IJullding
Across the Street for Regular Evening
I'erfornianccH. Tomorrow night nt S
O'clock.
No other sign appeared anywhere
in the neighborhood, or for that, mat
ter In tho town. Hut long before the
lime for the opening of the doors
arrived, the sidewalk in front of the
theater was Jammed with people.
The hole with tho ultimate sign at
the bottom was the only phive where
an announcement had been made. Yet
tho curiosity of human beings had
l;ien such that a sign in the bottom
ol' the hole had brought more than the
(l f-ired results.
Contemporary Opinion
(Michigan Daily.)
YOUTHFUL PRODIGIES.
CORNHUSKER DEMOCRACY.
Democracy, that thing which means
no much but which is hard to explain,
is by no means lacking in the Husker
school. Every student in Nebraska
University stands on a par with
every other student there are no
class distinctions of any kind.
No matter whether the boy be rich
or poor, students at the Cornhusker
school cannot tell from his clothes
what his financial status may be. His
father may be worth a million but he
may appear on the University camp
us wearing corduroy trousers vnd a
leather vest. And the best part of it
is that his clothes have no bearing
on his social status among his fellows.
On the campus the democratic spirit
of the institution should further re
veal itself by everyone greeting every
one else he meet? on the campus.
whether or not he knows them by
nsme, he has seen them, and seeing
is enough to give a Cornhusker a
speaking acquaintance with his fellow
students.
Some say that one has no right to
speak to another person unless he
has been properly introduced. But
every student on the Husked campus
is a Cornhusker and on equal terms
with everyone else. He is not to be
blamed if he cannot remember every
name that he hears. That is no rea
son why he should pass up a familiar
eva. Last year owing to the financial
stringency, the only company to go on
face without a cherry "hello."
It all goes to make a more democrat
ic University of Nebraska.
HOLES AND CURIOSITY.
Holes are peculiar creatures. No
matter what their nature or where
their location, they create in the hu
man being a desire to investigato
their character and purpose.
Holes In trousers, stockings or
shirts always exoite the Interest of
anyone who happens to be a witness
to them before the possessor can
discover his "error" and correct IL
A cut appears in the rotogravure
section of a Sunday paper to tJ;e ef-
iect tht "Henry Jones is the youngest
freshman ever to enter Siwash univer
sity." Four years later another cut
npp.'T.rs saying that "Henry Jones Is
the youngest student ever to graduate
I'r '.'ii Siwash university," and the bios
Niphy of a youthful prodigy is wi'ttai
'.ceit fcr the death notice which men
tions this fact under a mediuni pJzea
head in a local newspaper. Such is
the case In the majority of such p e-nomenons.
It is a natural, though regrettable
fact that most precious youngsters
fail to attain eminence. The prodigy s
very youth, which would seem io give
him a great advantage over Ins fel
low, is his worst handicap. lie lacks
experience, knowledge of men, phy
sical growth. Often his brilliance is
mere receptivity he cannot apply his
knowledge to the solution of pa1 ti
tular problems. Socially he is at a
i if ad vantage, for he is too young to
iei'1'y a member of his ov;' genera
ti..u.
Psychologists are continually adco
eating that exceptional children be
given exceptional training, that their
extraordinary abilities be cultivated
and directed. This is a laudable ef
fort to make the best use of such
unusual capacities, but it may well
be doubted that the effort will suc
ceed unless some provision is made
for their entrance into, the more ser
ious activities of life at a mature age
It seems the part of wisdom to allow
these individuals the same time to
develop their faculties that is al
lowed the average person, and lot
them acquire more knowledge in that
length of time and develop them
selves more fully.
In the meantime it would be well
to collect figures on the accomplishr
ments of the exceptional student in
the outside world in order to have a
?clid basis for educating the prodigy
in the most efficient manner, and for
determining if he is worthy of special
e'fort.
