DADS' DAY
Inivitingr "Dad" to the University
for Duds' Aav in hplnu- built into one
of the strongest of Nebraska customs,
and largely because of the sentiment
that is attached to the observance of
such an occasion. Yet, the day serves
the practical purpose which its origin
ators had in mind, although this pur
pose is now overlooked. That purpose
is to acquaint the fathers of students
with the University, to show them at
least a part of the good that comes
with university training, and to prove
that students can and do thing of
other things than classes, activities,
"dates" and shows.
The luncheon in the Armory, Sat
urday noon, brings "dad" into a Uni
versity building, to the center of the
campus. He sees other men's boys
who are going to the University, hear
members of the faculty speak and get
a close look at some of the football
heroes.
In the afternoon he sees what is
often his first game of football, almost
certainly one of his few games. And
no university man doubts that foot
ball is the "greatest" game ever de
veloped. If he was afraid his son was
"running after girls" to the exclusion
of other interests, his mind is set at
rest.
In the evening, whether he attends
a dinner at a fraternity house or is
entertained simply by his son, he is
reassured that college is not going to
the boy's head.
The whole day's festivities help
"dad" to see newspaper reports of
"wild" college life are gross exagger
ations, that the years spent here will
not affect his son for the worse, and
that the institution is worthy of more
liberal financial support.
STUDENTS IN POLITICS
Students in foreign universities, we
understand, take a great interest in
politics. Often in news dispatches it
is stated that a political demonstra
tion was staged by the students.
When these students leave college
this interest Bhould naturally con
tinue for ones likes and dislikes are
largely formed during the college
period.
American students, on the contrary,
seem to take little interest in govern
ment. It is doubtful whether half the
students at the University of Ne
braska could tell who are Nebraska's
senators, who are its congressmen,
who is secretary of state, or what the
code law really means.
It is because of this lack of interest
in politics that American government
today is as slip-shod as it is. When
one fails to inform himself of the
qualifications of the candidates or
about the real issues between parties,
it is not surprising that there is stupid
voting.
American law-makers have often
been living examples of the gullibility
of the voters. Often they are jokes
nothing more than pompous, unintel
ligent figureheads with bully voices
and the ability to recite their drivel
fluently.
The study of political science seems
to have little effect toward bringing
intelligent voting. The students re
cite their lessons with fair accuracy
in class; their interest goes no farther
than to "get by." Seldom do they
gain any real interest in government.
Practical politics has been criticized
as corrupt probably it is but if
there is any way to bring it to a higher
level it is by intelligent voting.
When students take an interest in
politics and inform themselves of the
real issues and of the candidates,
American politics will reach a higher
level and begin to deal with govern
ment and not graft.

leges. New York has prohibited park
ing In certain streets, and a resolu
tion has been prepared and presented
to the faculty of the University of
Indiana which, if passed, will prohibit
the use in the city of Bloomington of
an automobile by any student
Last year wo had our own little
debate on the question of automo
biles, and settled it. The University
tactfu'Iy did not attempt to regulate
student ownership of cars. It mere
ly did as the great city of New York
did.
But Indiana and Mr. Fullerton take
the other side. Hugh says that he
believes it is detrimental to the youth
to own cars while at school. So, ap
parently, do some persons in Bloom
ington.
We feel certain that the good sense
of the faculty will prevail and that
students in Indiana will not have to
keep thnir cars in garages just out
side of the city limits, but the ten
dency is what concerns us. Fright
ened by the harum-scarum of a few
owners of machines; those who pro
pose the resolution would prohibit all
students from using cars. In an ef
fort to protect a few worthless stu
dents who would go to the dogs with
or without automobiles even those of
the student body who could earn Phi
Beta Kappa keys would be deprived
of the pleasure of driving.
Allegations that students use cars
to the defeat of education seem to us
to be begging the question. The Uni
versity is stepping out of its way to
find trouble. If it can be proved that
a few students who own cars are
flunking, let them be got rid of, but
let the others keep the machines with
out so much palaver. Ohio State
