BASKETBALL LETTERS.
There has been much spirited dis
cussion in the Student Opinion col
umn of the Daily Nebraskan over the
awarding of basketball letters this
year. A number ol: students ex
pressed dissatisfaction that such a
small number of letters were
awarded and some seemed to think
that three or four more letters should
have been given..
The Committee on awards, which
authorizes the issuance of letters,
awarded six "N's" to basketball men,
and this was done under a strict in
terpretation of the rules now in ef
fect. The "N" club last fall worked
a new plan of awarding letter's in
basketball, but this new proposed
method was never officially acted
upon by the Committee on Awards.
There has been no irregularity in
the awarding of letters. The Com
mittee on Awards gave every man a
letter who earned one under the rules
now in effect. That they are unduly
strict is beside the point.
The committee authorized a re
vision of the rules last year, but the
new plan has not been worked out.
The "N" club is working on a new
set of rules, and the committee has
stated its willingness to make these
retroactive to the beginning of the
present year, and award letters to
men who may have complied with
the new rules, but who did not earn
letters under the old regulation.
The athletic authorities have col
lected data from other representa
tive universities, and this material
will be made the basis of the new
plan that will be worked out.
It has been found that some uni
versities have rules that are more
strict and rigid than those in effect
at the University of Nebraska, and it
has been found that some universities
have rules that are more liberal. It
is probable that the committee will
work out a plan that will be a middle
ground between the extremes.
The committee has adopted a very
fair course in offering to make the
new rules retroactive to the begin
ning of the year. Letters were
awarded this year under a strict in
terpretation of the rules now in ef
feet, and this had to be done. So if
the new rules appease the disap
pointed ones, all well and good. And
if they do not it's just too bad.

NEW RULES FOR ISSUANCE OF
LETTERS.
To the Editor:
Whereas there has been a certain
amount of agitation by the students
over rules under which recent awards
were granted to the basketball play
ers, it may be well to make the fol
lowing statement:
The Committee on Awards fol
lowed to the letter the rules that
governed the awards of letters last
year. On the other hand, because
the commit! ee last year expressed
dissatisfaction with the general loose
ness with which the rules were drawn
up, authorized a revision of the rules
This revision has not yet been com
pleted but the committee is still
working; and has expresed perfect
willingness to make this retroactive
to the beginning of the present year,
atl make awards in tuTt da;?e with
these lules, and grant additional
"N's" should any individual player be
able to attain them under the new
rules
The new rules will be arrived at
only after a most searching analysis
of the athletic constitutions of other
representative Universities through
out the country. The committee has
already secured a large number of
these constitutions, an:! will make
every effort to take care of the
situation at once. In addition to
thesa various suggestions submitted
WANTS TRADITIONS SUPPORTED
To the Editor:
These columns have been filled
with some rather apparent insinua
tions, most of which are unfounded,
that tho Junior-Senior prom is a plan
to allow the members of the com
mittees to make some "easy" money.
The argument is one that appeals
readily to the gossip loving but has
thoughts to the fact that the dance
is one of Nebraska's oldest traditions.
We are short of traditions as it is.
This is a young school and traditions
are hard to build. Will anyone with
the Nebraska spirit care to wipe out
one of the old traditions.
Or does the pocketbook argument
appeal to the writer in Wednesday's
paper the most.
Let's loosen up and support old tra
ditions.
