The rallies start at 7:15 and are over ttt 8 so that thy do not conflict with "dates" or any other engage ments. The only real reajon for not attending these mooting U that one is unwilling to support tha team and the University. Any person feeling that way should not attend the rul lies; they are no- wanted. All others are expected to be there. Student Opinion SHAMEFUL Thursday morning the University of Nebraska and the city of Lincoln were honored by a speech from the Vice-President of the United States This is the first time that any Presi dent or Vice President has visited the city. The Coliseum was packed and there were some persons standing outside, making a crowd of about ' 12,000. The reception accorded Vice President Dawes and General Pershing was a cordial one, and en thusiastic one. The cheers given these two men were the best we have ever heard given any one. The Chancellor spoke and intro duced the Governor who in turn in' troduced Mr. Mark Woods who in troduced General Dawes, the princi pal speaker and honor guest of the occasion. Then occurred what was the roost shameful exhibition of disrespect we have ever witnessed. As the Vice President started to speak some of the students in the rear of the bal cony started to leave and the entire time he was speaking there were people leaving the Coliseum, most of them University students. It was 11:45 when the Vice Presi dent started to speak. Evidently some of the students were afraid that would miss lunch. The convo cation was over, however, exactly at noon. The complimentary remarks of the earlier speakers seem ironical after the action of the audience during General Dawes speech. We wonder what General Pershing who spoke of the University in such complimen tary terms thought of it after the Vice President had finished speak ing. There may be some who say that they could not hear General Dawes. We have talked to some persons who stood near the back and who said that they could hear the speech. However, even if they could not hear a word of the speech, the students owed the Vice President the respect to at least stay in their seats. There also may have been some high school students and citizens of Lincoln who left the Coliseum during the speech but we feel safe in say ing that at least 90 per cent of those who left were University students, persons who are supposed to have more culture, and better manners than the average person It was not a case of one or two leaving, there were a large number leaving all the time, in fact by the time the Vice President had finished his speech the balcony was only half fulL It had been completely filled at the beginning of the convocation General Dawes noticed it. He looked tip in the balcony several times during the short time he was speaking. General Pershing noticed it, Chancellor Avery noticed it, Gov ernor McMullen noticed it, Senator Howell noticed it How could they help it? They all looked mortified, looked lika they would like to wring the necks of those who were leaving. And we don't blame them. We are thoroughly ashamed of the student body and we don't see how Chancellor Avery and the other officials who were on the stage and elsewhere could help but be ashamed of it. Perhaps some of them did not realize that most of those who left were students. We hope not. How soon do you surpose General Dawes will want to come back again We dare say not very soon- If he can oVerlook this disrespect he is to be complimented, but we would not blame him if he should carry bitter memories of Lincoln and the Univer sity. And let there be no mistak tie fault lies entirely with the stu- JtLts of the University cf Nebraska- Do University of Nebraska stu dents appreciate the spoken drama? There is but one group in tho city of Lincoln talented enough to place the spoken drama on the high plane where it belongs. And this group of semi-professionals, whose acting is far superior to much so-called "pro fessional work," is a living part of our campus, the Temple Stock Co., or the University Players, as it is called. The greatest patronage that these Players have had m the previous years of their success has been ac corded them by Lincoln residents. They appreciate the tine performan ces of the players, and purchase their season tickets year in and year out Do the students realize thai the finest plays procurable have been and are tobe given on this campus in our own Temple Theater, and that the performances have stood up most favorably with the same plays given on the New York stage? An actual test of their merit is th.t the plays have been given repeatedly in small towns after their appearance at the University. A special Friday afternoon per formance has been added for the benefit of the student body stu dents only at almost half price. As an interested spectator I sec no rea son why the student body should not fill the University Temple Theater on Friday afternoons. The finest on the stage at approximately 30 rents a performance. If the Lincoln resi dents appreciate the talent in the University, the students themselves should certainly possess the same de gree of appreciation. K. G. football victory pleased him more than that of any other eleven. He told of early days In Lincoln He had come West with the move ment toward the Pacific, and had found Nebraska and Lincoln a suit able place to become a lawyer. He was enthusiastic about the prevadinc spirit of tha West "Equality of treat ment is called for by the West " He emphatically denied the presence of radicals in the western states, as is often stated. "There is no place which is more solidly behind the Con stitution and American idceja than the West" Crowd Stag The talk by Mr. Dawes concluded the convocation, which had all been in a mood of renewing old acquain tances. After the ceremonies old timers crowded the staRO to shake hands with the two men. Mr. Dawes and General Pershing were guests at a luncheon given by Mark and George Woods at tho coun. trv club. They left at 4. SO o'clock for a hunting trip at the Red Deer range in Cherry County. BAND AT RECEPTION The University of Nebraska's R. O. T. C. unit was well represented in the reception for Vice-President Dawes and General Pershing at the Northwestern station yesterday morning, and in the parade and the convocation at the Coliseum that fol lowed. The R. O. T. C. band and battalion of cadets, composed of two comp anies of sophomores and the Persh ing Rifle company, under John Boycr met the train, and made up a large part of the parade that escorted the Vice-President and General Persh ing to the convocation. Cadets ush ercd the 10,000 students and citizens to their seats in the new Coliseum which was filled to capacity. CLASS SUBSCRIBES $1,000 AS NEW REUNION FUND A new plan of financing class re unions, which will provide a class memorial as well, was adopted by this year's graduating group at the University of Wiscpnsin. The class of 1926 Memorial fund, suscribed by members of the class and amounting to $1,000, was de posited with the Board of Regents of the university, with the provision that the annual income to be paid to the class officers upon request probably once each five years to "Three Wise Fools," a comedy hit, was presented by the University Players. Margarit Hunger and Har old Felton carried the leading roles. Verne C. Lewellen was elected captain of the 1923 Cornhuskers. He is a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon and Innocents. Miss Rosa Ponselle, prima donna dramatic soprano, appeared in the second number of the Great Artist Course at the City Auditorium. Yale University wrote to the Ne braska State Historical Society for photographic copies of some of the best samples in their collection of frontier sod houses and dugouts. The Nebraska collection was the largest of its kind in the world. THE RALLIES Tonight the first of the football relies will be bei-i in the new Col j t um.

John K. Selleck, manager of student activities, when asked his opinion of the new plan, had this to say, "I think the plan of blocking out an "N" section in the stadium by means of the new grid caps is a ve'ry clever idea. These caps are very good looking and will make a wonderful showing if enough of them are sold. It is necessary that every student in this section must buy one to make the plan successful. However, if everyone does buy one it will prove in my opinion, the most effective dis play that we have ever tried." The Innocents hope that the stu dents will take hold of this idea and make it possible to offer one of the most spectacular displays in Nebras ka's football history.

Fraternity marks shot upward along with tho general average, and eleven groups on probation for low averages were taken off, while only one group was placed on probation. Pledge groups of fraternities and sor orities fell below the averages of active groups. Women again ranked ahead of men in scholarship.
