INTERSECTIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL
FOES
Yesterday, Nebraska won a decisive victory over
Syracuse in a great intersection al football game. To
morrow, Nebraska will meet Cambridge in what should
be a great international debate.
Nebraska's victory yesterday showed the driving
power of a great team. Behind them was a united stu
dent body, filled with a spontaneous enthusiasm which
burst forth Friday night in a demonstration second
only to the great Notre Dame rallies.
Nebraska's engagement tomorrow night i3 a test
of another sort. Although very different from the spec
tacle exhibited yesterday, it holds unusual elements of
interest.
English debating is very different from that used
in America. The English may not have the same closely
knit arguments of the Nebraskans but they will un
doubtedly excel in wit and repartee. The contrast be
tween the solid, well-organized arguments of the Hus
kers and the more brilliant but less substantiated at
tack of the Englishmen may furnish a contrast no less
vivid than the contrast between Nebraska's driving
power and Syracuse's vaunted passing attack.
Those looking for keen competition of the highest
sort should find it in the debate tomorrow. Those who
enjoy the tingle of clever repartee, the biting sarcasm
of a quick thinker, and the air of mental combat should
be there.
But the Cambridge team holds elements of inter-.
est for those who are not ordinarily interested in de
bate. It is a foreign team. It will be very different. The
young men who make up the team are both scholars
and athletes. And they have shown an active interest
in the discussion of modern problems, one of which
they will take up here. .
The mere opportunity to see and hear the Eng
lishmen is no little one. To be able to contrast them
with the Nebraskans, and to share in the contest in
voting on the question before and after the debate
and in the open forum are opportunities which make
the debate unusually attractive from the standpoint of
the average student.
cycle and headed straight for the crowd. If students
were fortunate enough to push a few inches nearer to
their neighbors they escaped bodily injury. It was a
question of using the ancient instinct of self-preserva-
Naturally, members of the mob through which the
motorcycle was trying to plow resented the attitude of
the officers. Several refused to move. Then the police
men realized the magnitude of their project. Words
became hot and when the crowd was about to etop
greeting the Syracuse team and give its attention to
the officers, these two wise men quietly withdrew.
Not that these mob antics are worthy of praise
for the student body. Mob action seldom deserves any-
thine but condemnation. Nevertheless, any right-minded
Nebraskan would have resented the way in which these
policemen sought to accomplish their mission. They
had the law on their side, but their brains were else
where. Instead of handling an enthusiastic mob with
good judgment and the proper psychology, they abused
their authority, and nearly at the risk of several stu
dents and their own welfare.
By next week's rally, the student body will prob
ably know what is expected at down town rallies. And
perhaps two policemen will have learned more about
handling mobs.
"We certainly appreciate the generous welcome
Nebraska has given us," declared one member of the
Syracuse team when interviewed Friday evening fol
lowing the rally.
"But we can't say the same for your police force !"
THE
SPECTATOR
POLICEMEN VS. PEP
Last Friday evening Cornhusker football enthus
iasm reached a degree very near to white heat. It was
inevitable that something should happen. In this par
ticular case it happened to be the Lincoln police force.
Now as a rule it is unwise to argue with police
men, especially in this city, where they are unusually
large of stature. There are, however, exceptions to
every rule. And the Friday student rally in front of
the Cornhusker hotel is an excellent example.
Two policemen and one motorcycle tried to run
down participants in a welcome rally for the Syracuse
team, following a student parade from the Coliseum to
the front of the Cornhusker hoteL A compact mob had
filled Thirteenth Street, with students in the center,
and parked cars forming an outside crust, so that traf
fic from L to M Streets on Thirteenth was halted. This
is, incidentally, against a city ordinance, although the
student rally members failed to remember it or else
did not know of their violation. So these two bold
policemen were right in their intentions to clear a
path through the mob.
It was the way in which they tried to carry out
their plans that caused the trouble. Did they think of
announcing their grievances from the speakers plat
form so the students would know what was expected of
them? No. Instead, the "cops" made a regular endur
ance contest of the rally. They jumped on the motor-
It is my Opinion, that of the many important Aids
to a young Man trying to get along, the most significant
is Poise, and following upon this Principle I have al
ways tried to cultivate such Poise that I would not be
disturbed under any Circumstances. But I must con
fess my self-education in this respect is only at an
elementary Stage, albeit I had bethought me that I
was quite proficient in it; but it has just been demon
strated to me how sadly lacking I am in Pcise, for I
was completely bewildered yesterday when I received
a Communication which without ado professed the
most shocking Sentiments of Love. Who my fair Cor
respondent may be I have no Way of telling, and her
Identity has worried me not a little in the last few
Hours. Suffice it to say that the Contents of the Letter
were so Fervent, and my Nature so retiring, that when
I perused those Lines I blushed furiously despite the
Fact I was alone in the Room.
Now the Problem that confronts me is a Delicate
one, the Solving of which I have not yet attained nor
see a Prospect of so doing. Inasmuch as I have, as I
said before, made a Pact with myself to print every
Letter that comes to me if I can do it and still regain
within the Bounds of common Sense, I am at a Loss
as to what to do in this Case. Therefore I appeal for
Assistance in this Crisis from my Readers, and invite
any Suggestions that are considered of Value. Mean
while I shall not Print the Letter.
But to vary the Subject, I should like to say that
Reports having come to me in various Manner on my
Column, I have thought it Wise to stop here a Moment
to see wheie I stand in relation to my Public. It is true
that most of the Letters finding their way to the Daily
Nebraskan office appear in Unfavorable mien towards
this Column, but there have been some favorable Com
ments which are refreshing to me. I have followed the
Custom of a certain Magazine which prints all its un
favorable Testimonials, thereby gaining many new
Subscribers, and it is in the disapproving Comments
that I am interested.' Giving a good Deal of Thought
to the Matter, I concluded that it is my Incomprehen
sibilia that are causing the disagreeable feelings in the
Hearts of those Readers who according to the Editor
have taken the Liberty to express their Disapproval. I
recall one Correspondent who professed to believe that
the little Poems I print every day are positively In
jurious to the aesthetic Sense of our Students, but I
dismiss that Objection on the Ground that Students
have no aesthetic Sense except in rare Cases, and these
latter Persons probably do not read the Daily Nebras
kan. I am willing to give my Public a Change of Diet
in this Column, being a tolerant and liberal-minded In
dividual, but I shall never consent to the Abolition of
my IncomprehensibiU altogether. This week I present
a Poem done by a Chinese, and I take occasion to point
out that it has the immortal, eternal Vision that many
of our modern Verses seem to lack. It is my Conviction
that the great Poet is not the man who writes, however
felicitiously, about the things around and about him,
but the Poet who with the wide Sweep of his immortal
Vision sees beyond the mere Limitations of Time and
Space into the glorifying Vista of Eternity. Of such is
the Substance of the following Verse, which being
Chinese has no Title.
Oh, Universe!
If thy stomach is
As weak as my poor one.
Centuries ago
Thou wouldst have died of indigestion!

of freshmen victories gained in the
last several years. "The sopho
