"EVEN FOR LAZY PEOPLE"
Next Sunday is officially "Go to Church" Sunday,
and granted that Sunday morning sleep is one of the
inalienable rights of man omitted from the constitution
through an oversight of our forefathers, one hour out
of one hundred and sixty eight (there are one hundred
and sixty eight hours in every week) does not seem
too much to spend on the spiritual development of tiie
average college man or woman.
Mentally! Thysically! Spiritually! That is the an
cient and honorable ordeT in which the threefold de
velopment of the individual is considered. But in college
life the mental and physical too often fill the entire one
hundred and sixty-eight while the spiritual meekly
takes third place which too often turns out to be no
place at all.
So the University and the local churches combine
to salvage one hour out of the one hundred and sixty
eight of one week in the collegiate year by the institu
tion of a custom called "Go to Church" Sunday. The
object of the custom is to form a slender connection
between the student and some local church in hope that
the student will go back the next Sunday and the next;
in hope that the slender connection may become a
strong and active force in the development of the man
or woman who is to go out from the University next
spring1 or four years from now.
Looking back over the past, the custom seems but
a faint hope. Multitudes will turn out for the eleven
o'clock service next Sunday, but what of the Sundays
to come? Granted that church attendance is a far from
swmrnt barAtntr of spiritual development, it. i a
dull and unimportant student who gains nothing from
it if he goes through the motions often enough.
Quoting from an article written and published by
an eastern college professor there is displayed a very
demonstrative and prejudiced point of view concerning
college footbaJL In fact, he doesn5t believe in it.
"Football is fast becoming a gigantic,
overwhelming, Gorgon, about to consume the
heart and soul of college intellectuality. Its
magnetic appeal, drawing the student always
at the inopportune time, is converting the
straightly directed orbit of the student, into
a hopelessly blinded path toward intellectual
heights," he asserts.
Dear mt, what mental flip flops the professor's
pedantic intellect performed. Another passage is of in
terest also:
"This state may be remedied, however,
by the students participating in the enjoyment
of a gridiron struggle without such a boister
ous spirit, as is usually evident. This will aid in
creating the idea that football is a thing aside,
and not of major importance, as many have
come to regard it."
' Now, let us really regard this statement without
levity.
Tonight there is to be a rally, the first of the sea
son, for one of the greatest teams Nebraska has ever
had. The team will be there, the coach will be there,
in fact, everyone will be there. But the important
point is, that there must be no noise. Anything above
a stage whisper will be immediately silenced by mem
bers of the organization of Corn Cobs. "Shush", will
be the password. The cheer leaders will be gagged when
they arrive. The speakers will be heard with the res
pect, tribute, and quiet attention due them. Then
everyone will quietly leave. A remark to a neighbor
such as, "1 hope we win", would be very appropriate.
And at the game tomorrow, such remarks as "Atta
Baby, Blue boy", or "Buckets of Blood", will be ab
solutely prohibited. However, in order not to dispense
with all festivity, a softly whispered, "Fight fiercely,
fellows", to cheer the boys on the field, will be toler
ated. This, accompanied by a gentle wave of ones ker
chief to ones favorite on the field, would be very sweet
Tea will be served between halves.
Help! Say, listen! If the roof of the Coliseum is
not raised four feet and bounced as many times at that
rally tonight, then let us all do our rooting for the
tatting team of the ladies sewing circle. And at the
game, if we don't make that Ames aggregation think
they have dropped into a Comanche Indian uprising,
then let us be sentenced for the rest of our lives, to do
nothing but read books on "Knocking the Wind out of
Football".
FAIR ENOUGH
In keeping with what seems to be expected of the
Editor of The Daily Nebraskan, a violent attack upon
the Student Council or else a healthy back-patting
should appear in this morning's paper. A new Varsity
Dance committee has been selected by the Council, and
now it also must be either praised to the skies or drag
ged in the editorial dust
The chairman, Mr. Gratigny, was evidently the
best man for the position. At least it took twelve bal
lots to elect him. He seems to realize the importance
of his position, and the gaps in the old Varsity Dance
system which must be mended.
As for the rest of the committee! it does not ap
pear to be the old political combination of Greek-letter
go-getters who need important titles after their names
in the Cornhusker.
The proof of the pudding, however, is in the eat
ing, or rather in this case, the type of dance the new
committee sponsors. It is only fair to wait until the
new managers have done something before criticizing
them, nor is there any reason to turn their heads be
cause they were selected, by telling them how promising
the future appears. .
THE
SPECTATOR-
I have meditated often upon the Abuses imposed
upon certain words in our Language, and especially
upon the Misapprehensions current as to the meaning
of such Words as truth, and justice. An Event of Im
portance of recent Date has served to renew in my
Mind these Meditations, and Yesterday, as Sir Roger
end I sat at Luncheon in The Stick, we had just Cause
to discourse upon such Matters.
For, as I told Sir Roger with pardonable Glee, my
Editor has just received a Communication demanding
that the Spectator column, in the interests of "truth
and justice," be discontinued. "But my dear Fellow,"
said Sir Roger, "here you have positive Proof that your
column is being read." I agreed, with Alacrily, but I
found Myself in rather a melancholy Mood for the Rea
son that I had received no Letters demanding that the
Spectator column be continued. But enough of that
It is indeed Unfortunate, Sir Roger and I agreed,
that the Mr. Hallam, the Communicant mentioned
above, can not have the Pleasure of Viewing his Handi
work on the printed Page. And I would say to Mr. Hal
lam, while I am upon the Subject, that 1 did my Part,
for I pleaded with the Editor to allow publication of
his Letter. The Editor was adamant, however, explain
ing that there is an inviolable Rule of this newspaper,
that no Communicant shall be published unless the
Editor know the Identity of the writer; and since no
Man by the name of Hallam can be found in Records
or in Acquaintances, this Rule of Publication is in
voked. I am thinking for the Good of the General
Populace when I desire this Letter to bo printed, for
it would serve as an admirable Illustration, of what I
have just been thinking, that the Abuse of the words,
truth and justice is become Common in this Age. Mr.
Hallam's Letter would prove my Point more adequately
than half a column of conscientious Argument and
Rhetoric.
Meanwhile, I have observed that Preparations for
the Game on Saturday are going forward at a feverish
Rate, what with the Upper Thirteen in a Frenzy for
fear the Big Rally tonight will not be a Success, and
with the Cheerleaders well nigh to Distraction for
thinking the special Cheering Section will not function
properly. There is a rare Opportunity, and myself as a
Spectator mean to grasp it, to see a Cheering Practice
at the Stadium this Afternoon. Indeed, I have allowed
myself to become Infatuated with Anticipation, and
many times has the Picture come to my Mind of a
Mob of hearty youn Fellows sitting in the bare, empty
Stadium, With a few Puppet-like Leaders engaged in
Acrobatics to excite Cheersand all without a football
game. I confess I have never given the Matter much
Thought, but I must say it has always seemed to me
that Cheers were impossible unless there were some
thing to cheer For. Perhaps I have but committed an
other Errour, and it may be that the ancient Rule of
tZZl eCt i"Vin8 CaUC " "-applicable n this
special Case; for surely, it appears that the Cheerlead
ers aim to provoke Cheers no matter what happens at
the Game Saturday, and they are wise enough to pro
mote a little Practice in order that the Visitors at the
Game m,y be entertained properly. And why not, I ask'

WILDCATS TANGLE
WITH H1ZZ0U MEN
Kansas Aggie Invade Columbia for
One of Important Games in
Valley Circle .
Manhattan, Kansas, Sept. 30.
When Charlie Bachman's Kansas
Wildcats invade Missouri to tangle
with Gwin Henry's Tigers, two pos
sible Missouri valley champions will
open the conference season tomor
row at Columbia with one of its most
important battles, since Missouri U.
and Kansas State are rated with the
strongest in the valley.
As far as conditioning and train
ing the teams are equal, each having
started practice on September 15, the
date set by conference regulations.
While the Aggies had their first
competition last Saturday when they
defeated Kansas State Teachers col
lege at Hays, 30 to 6, Missouri wal
loped their freshmen in a practice
scrimmage. Letter men on the Kan
sas side number sixteen, which gives
the Tigers; who have eighteen, a
slight advantage. '
It is probable that Coach Bachman
will use practically the same starting
lineup that he did against Hays with
the exception of Joe Anderson at
quarterback. Karl Enns who started
last Saturday was injured in the
third quarter and it is doubtful that
he will be in the lineup at Columbia.
Anderson showed up well during the
first game, returning punts and
kickoffs for good gains, once for
85 yards and a touchdown. Captain
Jim Douglass was another strong
factor in the Aggies' scoring with his
off tackle smashes. The rest of the
backfield should be made up of Joe
Holsinger, left half, and Lee Ham
mond, right half.
Bert Pearson should start at cen
ter with the guards, Harold Stover
and Casey Bauman. Tackles will be
the housemoving twins, Dee House
holder and George Lyon, while on the
wings two third year men will see
their regular positions, Monk Ed
wards and Ted Fleck.
Middletown, Conn. (IP) An
other higher educational institution
this week joined the ranks of those
colleges and universities which have
denied their students the use of au
tomobiles. Wesleyan . university has handed
down a ruling that only juniors and
seniors may use cars, and only those
juniors and seniors as may have been
given written permission to do so by
their parents.
