ABOUT THE BAND
To the Editor:
In traveling around tho at to ris
ing tho past few dav T fin,i
mere is an unusuul amount of w
est being manifest 111 tho rrnmn in V.a
played at tho stadium on next Sat
urday between North Plnt.tn nrM ,
Lincoln high schools for the state
championship. A larco rmmW r,f
people will come to the cit.v nr. t.W
day. Many high school students thot
have not been here before. Quite
naturally they will visit the Univer
sity campus and many of its depart
ments as they will in a short time
(many of them) be enrolled in the
University.
Among the many very attractive
things that the University has is one
of the very best bonds in the stjitp.
It has made a big hit at every football
gamo played here this fall. Why not
suggest therefore to the proper de
partment that the band be on hand
Saturday afternoon. Of course it
will not be there in the interest of
either team as the boys in the band
come from every part of the state.
1 think that you will agree with me
in my statement that there is nothimr
that adds as much zest to a big game
as a fine band parading the street
before the game and then at the sta
dium during the game. High school
bands will also be there, but just as
in the past, "the more the merrier."
I hope that this will meet with
your approval and if it is carried out
will make a big hit with the partisans
of both teams.
Let us show these high school bovs
and girls that wo have the best in
every line riht here at the University
want them to be enrolled here at the
University as soon as they finish their
high school courses.

Quo Vadi.?
Since the first group of students
banded together to form tho original
of the modern fraternity, competition
between social organizations of the
college and university campus has
been rife. As a ircncrul ruin, It. hn
beenvwhoelsome, healthy competition,
inspiring tho undergraduato to do
better work ajid givinir him a hic-her
set of ideals. The
when an organization's scholarshin
rating was considered a thing of
great importance. A fraternity's
standing in the nthlctics of tho school
has been a matter of pride.
Today, these coditions are i-hnmr.
ing somewhat. A fraternity or a sor
ority, in order to "rate" does not
point to its scholars or its athletes
as often as to its plans for n new
homo that costs "? 10,000 more than
any other on the camnus." It is true
even at Indiana University, "the most
democratic school of the Middle
West." Fraternities and sororities
enter into competition in building
more expensive homes than their
neighbors. The $25,000 or $35,000
homo that housed the "Greek" or
former years, must be replaced by a
mansion costing $70,000. Whisper
ings of a "$100,000 house that will
make other organizations take notice
are not uncommon."
"A standard must be set," the pub
lic is informed, "so that, being dis
content with Bny lower standards of
Ivlng, the graduuto will strivo harder
to climb to these standards." This is
a commendablo ambition and will
tend to keep the college mun's life
standards high. But tho danger lies
in tho fact that ho may be discon
tent to fall short of his goal and may
feel ho must sacrifice everything to
attain it.
And what end is thero in view?
A $110,000 house, a $120,000 house,
and so on, ad infinitum, until tho
idculs of comfort, convenience and a
high standurd of living are last in a
mad attempt to outdo other organiza
tions. Limitations on tho amount of
money that a fraternity or sorority
can pay for a house will go far to
maintain the ideals of democracy that
will bo sacrificed if desire to outdo
each display with ono more elaborato
is given free rein. The Indiana Sum
mer Student.
The. Stampede
Tho three mob scenes that were
incorrectly called "dances" this past
week-end furnish food for a little
thought. To tho more devoted pa
trons of tho Tcrpsichorcnn pastime,
they provide food for almost a brain
storm.
Every since tho grand old days of
Davis hall when Mott Keyes was just
a freshman in arts and sciences, be
fore tho Mexican War, the local stude
has beuji forced to do his dancing
without enough elbow or leg room.
In fact, the nimble-limbed young Ok
lahoma teahouud has always been
compelled to cut his swirls down to
the minuinum in conserving floor
space.
. The suggestion was once made that
two "student councils" be run in dif
fcrent halls at the same time. The
managers tried that plan and every
body jammed like a flock of sheep
into one of the halls, leaving the

REBUILDING. A CITY
In Santa Barbara, the beautiful
little city in Southern California
which was almost destroyed by
earthquakes, the American people
are being given another remarkable
demonstration of western recupera
tive ability and sheer determination
in the face of heavy odds. On a
small scale there is being witnessed
a duplication of that remarkable
spirit that was displayed by San
spirit that was displayed by San
Francisco after the great earthquake
and fire which destroyed that city in
190G.
San Francisco, momentarily stun
ned, recovered with extreme rapidity
Great sections of the city, including
the financial and business districts,
had been annihilated. In addition
many citizens had lost their lives,
The survivors thus had a double bur
den which was faced with remark
able fortitude, and the result was
that within a few years San Fran
cisco was completely, surprisingly re
built and today is one of the most
modern of cities.
Little Santa Barbara is in much
the same position as was her larger
sister of misfortune. The business
section of the city is destroyed and
people are living in the open spaces
where they are in the least danger.
Heavily burdened by property loss
which may exceed $20,000,000 and
with many injured and dead, within
tho period of the rising and setting
of the sun the leaders of Santa Bar
bara started preliminary plans for
not only rebuilding the city but for
making it thoroughly medern, a
dream city of the West.
OJ course the city is not alone in
its sad plight The nation is lend
ing assistance. The army and navy
promptly sent forces to maintain

other so bare of couples that tho or
chestra boys closed down about 9
o'clock and went over to tho other
hall and mixed merrily in tho dance.
Of course tho revenuo from stu
dent council dances, at present war
timo prices, could finnnco a dance
hall as easily as it could be used to
send the band to Missouri, pay for
freshman raids, and buy watch fobs
for council members. But to build
even a cheap, temporary . structure
with a dance floor larjre enough to be
satisfactory seems hardly nn advis
able move at this timo.
Tho problem will be fully solved
when tho Student-Union building is
finished. Until that time, it prob
ably will not be solved. It seems to
bo a matter of setting by just as well
as possible now and maybe by the
timo our sons come back to alma ma
ter, there wlil be a hall large enough
to make a student council hop look
more like a dance and less like the
stampede sceno from "North of 36."
Students Who Do Not "High-Hat"
Not a day passes that some student
of more or less prominence is ac
cused of failing to acknowledge the
greetings of various classmates and
acquaintances. A charge of 'high
hatting" is leveled at him and a cer
tain resentment is borno thereafter
in the breasts of the individuals who
consider themselves thus slighted.
Tho situation creates unfortunate
misunderstandings.
Littlo can be said in defense of the
few men and women on tho campus
who do actually preserve an attitude
of such exclusiveness as to prevent
them from exchanging tho ordinary
civilities of social contact. They us
ually get all of tho contempt they de-
servo, and their conduct is not often
approved even by their own inti
mates. But surely some attempt at
explanation might easily absolve the
great mnjority of those who stand
charged with "high-hatting."
In the rush of activity about tho
campus, introductions are not easily
recalled, chance acquaintances may
fail of recognition and still not stand
entitled to consider themselves cooly
and willfully ignored. Flimsy and
ludicrous as the excuso mny seem,
many students fail to give proper re
sponse for the simple reason that they
are unaware of having been address
ed and through physical defect are
unable to clearly seo and distinguish
thoso whom they meet Preoccupa
tion, into whose toils each one of us
at times is prone to fall, accounts for
more ficlitioun instances of "high
hatting." Paradoxically enough, it is the
campus politicians against whom this
attitude is most often charged. In
reality, such nstute fellows cultivate
the acquaintance of all they chance
to' meet, and in their minds a reject
ed greeting translates itself to terms
of lost vo;is in some future election.
It is axiomatic that a smile begets
a smile, a word of friendly greeting a
similar response. Repitition of cor
dial approach will serve in almost
every instance to convert the
"slighted" individual to a more vnlu-
able regard for the man ho previously
supposed had "high-hatted" him.
