any time. Quite naturally, the prospect
of vacation makes the spirits soar and
tempts the fancy to roam, but at the
peril of your position in good grace.
The time of reckoning will come for
those who permit their minds to go
vacationing before they are given of
ficial freedom. There is another year
coming after this one, also' another
hard siege of school. What is not ac
complished now will have to be done
next year, and it is bad policy to carry
this kind of debts over from tne old
year to the new.
It is not natural to slacken speed
when entering upon the home stretch;
one is usually anxious to finish with
flying colors'. It shows lack of real
spirit and patriotism to deliberately
give up and try to drift when the end
is In sight. Besides it is not the
school year that is closing.

OUR HONOR MEN.
Again members of our football team
brought great honor to Nebraska Sun
day, when they w ere chosen as mem
bers of Walter Eckersall's mythical
all-American teams. To John Pucelik
comes the honor of being the first
Nebraskan to be chosen on an all
American by a recognized authority
In the pigskin sport. Pucelik has been
a hard worker, a consistent heady
player, and a star performer at all
times. Nebraska is fortunate to have
had the services of such a football
player as Pucelik.
Captain Swanson was placed on Eck
ersall's second all-American. With
such men as Wallace of Ames, Keck
of Princeton, Killinger of Penn Stale
and Mohardt of Notre Dame, it Is
easily seen how high Swanson Is held
in the eyes of this football authority.
To have two representatives among
the thirty-three chosen by the Chica
go sports writer shows how the coun
try is beginning to recognize the west,
particularly Nebraska.
With most of our twenty-four letter
men returning to school next year, the
team should be a better one than we
had this year. Dawson, when he took
charge, knew little about the respect
ive abilities of the men from whom
he had to whip a team into shape.
Next year he will not be handicapped
this way for his men are tested, and
they on the other hand are used to
his coaching methods.
Nebraska although it loses both
Swanson and Pucelik, should have a
team next year that has no equal
anywhere in the United States.
THE THIRD AWGWAN.
For the third time this year the
Awgwan greets Nebraska's student
body. The staff after three months of
workin? together shows steady im
provprnent and the magazine is one
not to be equaled by any college comic
In the United States.
Full of clever jokes, yet w ith a lit
tle touch of seriousness here and
there, it is a treat for anyone fortun
ate enough to obtain a copy of this
publication. The staff worked hard
and long on this last issue and the
splendid result of this effort is readi
ly seen after It has been given the
"once over."
Nebraska is fortunate to have such
a publication as this Is, and the stud
ents are doubly fortunate In being
able to obtain copies of it so that
the folks at home may learn of the
frivolities of University life from a
clever, cleancut paper of this kind.
THE OLD YEAR.
The old year is fast drawing to a
close, and very soon the final chap
ter will have been added. It is not
only the old year that is dying, if wo
are to judge by observation, for am
bition seems to be waning as welL
A warning in this connection is time
ly for the student, in looking forward
to vacation at the end of the year,
may lose sight of the fact that 'his
obligations do not cease until the time
has actually arrived.
It is a regrettable fact that some
students have a tendency to grow
slack in their efforts toward the end
of the year. Some think that because
they have a good grade now they can
drift for a while and pass on their re
putation. The result will be that their
reputation will suffer a severe shock,
and they will find to their own grief.

sweetest. School is an up-hill course,

(Minnesota Daily)
SPEED UP,
The more work a man has to do
the more he is able to do This state
ment may be disputed by some, but
it is a known fact. On the campus,
as well as in the buslne's world, we
leave the many things to the few
w ho are keyed up to the high point of
working fast and efficiently. Authorit
ies tell us that students who are en
gaged in athletics do better work in
their studies 'during the time tlrey are
In training than after they have let
down in the grind. There are several
reasons for this First of all, a man
who is engaged in some form of ath
letic competition, has to systamatize
his work to find time for study as well
as athletics. He isi in better physical
condition, and as a resut his body
helps speed up his brain.
Athletic persons are cited simply
as an example, for they are not the
only persons on the campus or in out
side life ,who do much work because
they have much to do. We find that
there are men who have no connection
with any sort of athletic endeavor who
are carrying enough work to stagger
several ordinary students. This is be
cause they have speeded up to a point
above that reached by their fellow
students. They have extended them
selves. They are not content to move
slowly, act slowly, think slowly or
get results slowly.
Look to the men who head large
enterprises of any sort, whether in
school or out, and take them for ex
amples. The big ment are the ones
who are engaged in more than one
activity, although they may have on
ly one line in which they are expert.
They do more than just what is re
quired They do what is needed and
then find new things to do. They find
it takes' little more effort to do many
things well than to do them half
heartedly or poorly.
Let us npt worry about lack of
t ime. When work comes along too
fast, insteod of giving up everything
and saying, "the world has been too
much for me," find something to add
to what you are doing already and
though -you may have less time to
spare, you will find you have more
time in which to do things. A .S. T.

Student Opinion.
To the Editor o The Daily Ne
braskan: The athletic department
has announced a policy of "every
student in athletics," which every on
knows is the way to put Nebraska on
the map in other lines, than football.
The results are seen already 5u ;he
increased numbers out for cross-country,
wrestling and other minor sports.
Already the track squad Is assuming
warlike proportions, the wrestling
squad is overflowing, and as many
men reported for cross-country as
did for football. Twenty-four let
ters were awarded In football within
a few hours of the last game and the
order for sweaters is being pushed.
In crosscountry, after meeting world's
record men in competition, wltn lie
season coincident with football, no
letters have been awarded, nor has
the promised "feed" materialized. Th
wrestling department needs more
room.
The men have answered the call
In minor sports. Now what is the
department going to doT
A CROSS-COUNTRY RUNNER.
Opinion column of The Dally Ne
braskan, an article among non-fra
ternlty men and women, on the
grounds that it would cause too much
friction between the two factions
Just why he is willing to lie down
and peacefully submit to the rule of
the Greek organizations he did not
state. If it is right for one body of
students to organize what) reason
able argument can be put forth that
it is wrong for another body of stu
dents to organize?
Certainly there would be no nore
friction between these two factions
than there Is now between the pres
ent split factions. A campaign to this
effect would simply mean a fair race
between Greek and non-Greek men
and women for class offices and in
all student activities. What fairer
proposition can be asked for by non
frat students?
To meet the demand of non Greek
students for a better and more demo
cratic Nebraska, a Barb organization
should be formed to make the Idea
A More Democratic Nebraska' be
come a reality. ' fl. "''rW:vK?r
"A LOYAL BARB.'
LINCOLN, Nebr., Dec. 8, 1P21. To
the Editor of The Daily Nebiaskan:
A Barb (Husker) Booster has pre
sented his idealistic attitude In an
opinion against Barb organization. He
states that such an organization
would create a great deal of friction
and would be directed against the
Greeks. However, he should recog
nize the fact that competition stimu
lated Interest, sharpens the qualities
of the different factors, ard forces
the most fitted to the front, the Uni
versity, consequently, reaping a great
er benefit
Also, the fraternities may be the
logical solution for many of the hous
ing and social problems but why
should these organizations run the
politics of the university when they
are only one-third its representation?
And again, would not dormilones for
the men as well as for V-i women
solve those housing and social prob
lems? The writer states that the offices
"should be filled by the most capable
men in the school," and then states
"that it is up to the dominent fra
ternity organizations to see that this
happens." . That would indeed show
great magnanimity on the part of the
Greeks if they would recogn'ze 'the
most capable of the school as a whole
rather than their own group. But he
is forgetting the fundamental prin
ciple of the fraternity when he pre
sents such a plan. Can you imagine
a man boosting for an outsider rather
than for his own brother? No more
would a fraternity' man consider a
non-fraternity man more qualified
than his fraternity brother. This is
an excellent ideal, but theories do
not always work out in practice.
In order that we may reach the
true Democracy in the university a
representation of all the students
must be had. Such representation
can be had only by the organization
of the unorganized. Such an organ
ization Is the only solution and in my
estimation, inevitable.

F. W. Luehring,
Director of Athletics.
To the Editor of The Daily Ne
braskan Is the student body of the
University of Nebraska democratic
ally represented? The majority of
the students in Nebraska will say
that it is not. It is a well known
fact that all university activities are
In the hands of the minority, the fra
ternities. The fraternities are strong
ly organized bodies of students and
for this reason they carried prac
tically unanimously in every election
for the last thirty years at Nebras
ka, The fraternities will have to
admit this. It simply shows what
organizations will do.
Yet there appeared in the Student
Notice to Football "N" Men.
