A PRAYER ANSWERED?
Emmi'tt V, Maun, whose recent
criticism of the University of Ne
braska was published in The Ne
braska Alumnus and reviewed in
these columns, has attracted the at
tention of papers far afield. The
New York World last Sunday placed
a two-column headline over a 500
word story in the middle columns
and at the top of its front page, in
which Mr. Maun's observations are
set forth in detail.
This impells us to the conjecture
that if Mr. Maun will only take ad
vantage of the opportunities afford
ed by such national publicity, he may
benefit directly from his critical let
ter (and after all the University
gave him his style) in securing a fat
movie contract or series of lecture
engagements which would enable
him to settle debts of honor, estab
lish a home, and obtain the other
aims of his life.
PRAISE IN DISGUISE
"There are only two schools in the
district where I would venture to ask
this question," a regional officer of
the Y. M. C. A. said at a meeting
of the University of Nebraska cabinet
(as we recall his words). "But it
seems to me that in your zeal to pro
mote thinking, you are forgetting
that it is necessary to turn in and do
things. Aren't you spending too
much time here at Nebraska trying to
make students think, and not enough
trying to make theim act?"
The official representative of the
district and national organization
then went on to say that thinking was
quit all right, of course, but it is
most valuable when accompanied by
action. He told what has been done
to promote worthy causes at other
schools, how the Y. M. C. A. might be
a leader among the active moral for
ces of the University, and the possi
bilities for its participation in other
undergraduate activities. His com
ments were mild, but critical never
theless. A truthful answer to the question
which he raised would probably be
that the University of Nebraska Y. M.
C. A. is spending more time trying to
make students think than trying to
make them run errands, but that it is
not doing "too much" of either.
At other schools where the Y. M.
C. A. is concentrating its efforts on
"doing things" it may be worthy of
support, but the association is even
more valuable when, as is the case
at Nebraska, its primary aim is to
make students think. There are
plenty of student organizations which
supply errands and petty tasks for
their members. There are plenty of
groups that are "doing things" on the
campus. If you doubt it, look about
and see how "busy" everyone is with
this movement and that committee.
But there are few societies, work
ing entirely from University depart
ments, that are striving to promote
thinking among undergraduates. The
University Y. M. C. A. does this by
bringing speakers of note to the
campus, cooperating with the Y. W
C. A. in arranging World Forum
luncheons, providing a reading room
for the use of all University men,
and sponsoring discussion groups for
the consideration of problems of ev
ery kind.
The remarks of the district offi
cial, intended no doubt as criticism,
were in reality praise such as he him
self could give the Y. M. C. A. of
only two universities, mere la a
genuine need for an association of
this kind. It's easy to keep the hands
of the student body busy, but it's
hard to keep undergraduate minds
functioning without thejneentive of
grades or honors.
COACH SCHULTE
Nebraska students should rejoice
in tho fact that the report concerning
Coach Schulte's departure has proved
to be nothing but a rumor, ,ind has
gone the way of many rumors. That
smiling, fighting gentleman, who
stands for fair play and equality on
all occasions, still belongs to the Uni
versity of Nebraska, and this news
pnper hopes that bis desire to "grow
e!J at some good school" may be
rt;i!':?cd here.
The spirit of athletic contestc, an
-.',e spirit of sportsmanship, depend

Sihulte is a man who has not wasted
his time in producing winners alone,
(although the records show many
winners), and who believes In ath
letics for the game's sake.
The stamp of his influence has
spread through the high schools of
the state, just ns it is shown in his
men. Adverse criticism has crept
up against him on occasions, but for
tho most part it has been prejudiced,
selfish criticism. Ho has struck
down opposition as willingly as he has
defended right. To tho students, he
has been an example -f the type of
athlete that he demands and puts a
premium upon.
The University may well be proud
that Schulte "is a Nebraska man!"
WHY THE DELAY?
Only one class president has an
nounced his committees for the sec
ond semester. The seniors who were
honored by such appointments are
now undoubtedly working night and
day to properly perform the duties
for which they were appointed. Just
glance through the bulletin in the up
per corner of this page and notice
the tremendous number of senior
committee meetings that are now be
ing held 1
But what of the other classes?
How are the freshmen, sophomore,
and junior class committees ever go
ing to get all of their work done,
when they have such a late start?
And think of the sleep every night
lost by anxious aspirants to class
committee chairmanships!
Someone should call this matter to
the attention of the presidents of the
three lower classes. By the way, does
anyone remember who those presi
dents are?
AS OTHERS SEE US
The following editorial, which ap
peared in the Sioux City Tribune
under the captaion "Where They
Balked", may interest Nebraska stu
dents as an expression of opinion
concerning the rent-a-Ford agitation
from a writer at a distance from thn
campus:
"Students at Nebraska University,
who have encountered many mani
festations along the line of increased
cost of living, have served notice on
the world that they reserve the right
to discriminate in meeting these
conditions. Exactions which can be
passed along to the paternal exche
quer, after the manner of trade prac
tice, will be tolerated even if some
what deplored. Those which are
delicately personal in nature, and
which stay put like the income tax,
will be opposed with all the force and
enthusiasm of the student body.
"Although the students have not -
formally outlined such distinctions, ;
anyone who has been through the ;
mill can catch the point. There has j
been no outcry at Nebraska Uni- j
versity over the increased cost of ,
books, increased cost of rooms, in
creased cost of food, increased de
mands from social requirements or
from the increased cost of many oth
er things intering into ordinary col
lege life. The modern parent may
groan a little m lacing tne Duugei,
but usually can bo convinced that the
operating estimates are sealed right
down to an efficiency basis.
"Nebraska students let it be known
in a loud voice that the worm had
turned when the rent-a-Ford con
cerns in Lincoln raised rates 20 cents
an hour. The protest started with
a low, rumbling noise and soon ac
quired a menacing volume. Within
a few days a widespread strike had
been instituted and the rental ag
encies were forced to capitulate. It
is an interesting phase of the case,
Umost easy to understand, that tho
r
it

co-eds supplied the basic moral force
in the strike.
"Hours are serious matters with a
masculine student whlling away the
time out in the open spaces with an
attractive co-ed. The sinister influ
ence of that extra charge hovered
over conversation, complicated beau
tiful sentiments and infringed upon
the natural workings of blissful ro
mance. Shall the grim exactions of
commerce be allowed to spoil the
picture? "Not on your life," says
the young man working to a defi
nite allowance. "Not on my life,
either," says the coordinating co-ed.
Nobody can hold a watch on an old
fashioned stroll down a shady lane.
Romance must be served.
"There are reasons why ordinary
taxi service does not meet student
nends even in going to and from the
multitude of Bocial functions. Most
of the college students out here in
the wesf, being the offspring of par
ents steeped in the wisdom of experi-
ncc, do not have the use ot private
ears while at school. It's a case of
walking or driving your own without
getting unduly reckless with the bud
get.
students have not
changed very much in their natural
temperaments, ns compared with the
pre-automobile days. Its the condi
tions surrounding them which have
changed.

SCHOOL SPIRIT
Nebraska University is a place of
learning, where some 10,000 students
are assembled for the purpose, we
hope, of bettering themselves. There
should be present in the hearts of
these students a sincere devotion to
their school, which should be mani
fested in school spirit. There should
be, of course, co-operation between
the students themselves ns well ns be
tween the students and faculty.
The school alone does not need
co-operation. Our classes need it
badly. What would our graduating
senior class be without organization?
What could be accomplished? Each
class needs a man or woman at its
head, even if there is, as is said more
honor than work connected with the
office. Can any organization func
tion properly without a president?
It would be as bad without n bend
as our University would be without a
Chancellor,
Why is it, then, Ihul out of about
10,000 students qunlified to vote at
election time, but some 700 voted
several weeks ago at an election for
class presidents.
Is this not a reflection upon our
school spirit? Tho reflection rests
wholly upon the student body. If
they are nblc to show loyalty at a
footbull game, why should they not
prove their loyalty at a class elec
tion? Why allaiw a fraternity to
place a man on the plat'orm and then
to elect him by the fraternity vote?
Is this fair to you? Is it fair to your
school? And is this fair to tho man
himself? Or to tho best efforts of

the class? Our school is patiently
attmntina to turn out better men
and better women. This method of
election, this lack of school interest
which is shown best in the school
spirit present, is a direct rebuko at
the standards that have been set for
us to follow.
When vou leave Nebraska you
should feel that you have done your
very best for yourself and lor your
Alma Muter. How many of you are
steering along the right direction?
Are you, too, wondering why but
700 votes were cast out of a student
body of 10,000? Why should we
students, in this free speaking coun
try, allow such important events as
elections to be "engineered?"
I fear that school spirit is degen
erating. Elections come and go.
Next year there will be more inter
est? Let us hope that the next class
es will be benefitted by the mistakes
of the present ones. And school
3pirit is the first great consideration.

FOR the man whoso Castles in Spain are
built in the laboratory, here is the promise
of a dream come true.
In communication research, men have seen
a thousand great visions in little test tubes,
hundreds of new thoughts reflected in the
mirrors of galvanometers.
A life-time of this work is waiting for the
man who loves it, and under conditions that
lie has ulways longed for. A wealth of appa
ratus and materials, an abundance of knotty
problems, a group of associates who are help
ing in the great work these are a natural
part of this far-reaching industry.
The requirements of communication call for
deeper, ever deeper inqi y, and notonly along
electrical lines but in chemistry and mechanics
as well all science contributing the stuff of
which the researcher's dream is woven.
