Under the new plan the University has morning hours in which to broadcast. This is not the fault of KFAB, as that station's time was also cut, which in directly caused the death blow to University broad casting. A death blow because the audiences which heretofore have been eagerly awaiting the evening pro grams will not be gathered in the morning. Too many people are busy then; and especially in an agricultural section of the country, jt is evening programs or none at all for a radio audience. Of course a very logical reason has been pre sented by the radio commission for this action depriv ing local stations of part of Uieir broadcasting time. Two New York stations and one in San Francisco have been given the wave length formerly used by KFAB. No doubt the larger stations deserve prominence "on the air' but this idea of establishing through "air lanes" does not benefit listeners who have small tets. It has been estimated that only about one out of every five radio sets can get New York or San Francisco direct. Does this merit the action taken by the radio commission? Perhaps, if the programs are of a sufficiently ben eficial nature. But no matter hew the question is dis cussed pro and con, it must be admitted that local in formation from the state university has a personal touch which far-off stations of the country cannot supply. This is evidenced by the deluge of letters pour- j ing into the University broadcasting office since the announcement of the change of broadcasting hours. Two typical letters appear in the "Soap Box." i Are University students in any way connected with this controversy? They are. Because many of the per sons who constitute the University radio audience! bave sons and daughters in this institution. Programs frost here are consequently of genuine interest to them. They eagerly listen in on events which their sons attend, forgetting the other thousands of students, but remembering that "John" is going to this game and "John" is going to profit by that new ruling. So with the combined help of parents of University students and state radio enthusiasts some new action may be taken if letters keep pouring into the Uni versity radio station as they have so far. The old farm and home radio programs may again be heard over KFAB instead f the New York and San Francisco of ferings. That is, if after a trial, the people of the state do not favor the other offerings to their own. So many students spent time being "thankful" over the holidays, that very few prepratL?ns were evident in classes Monday. FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS r GRINDING THE AX The last season of Missouri Valley Conference football has ended, but the tangled results it has pro duced are far from settled in a satisfactory manner. Each season is sot complete unless it has its football champion, one team, that by reason of a superior record of victories, stands out above all the rest as deserving of highest honors. Nebraska followers feel that the Cornhusker season has been successful, and that the Scarlet and Cream has a fair claim to equal honors with Missouri in the Valley, if no more. That is where ihe controversy originted. Missouri played one more game than is allowed by conference rules, for the purpose of restoring friend ly relations with. Washington University. Missouri thug played nine games, or one more than is allowed by conference rules, but the exception was granted as the other Valley institutions were anxious that all schools be on the best of terms with each other. On that extra game, with victory to Missouri, the Tiger school bases her claim to a clear championship title. The University of Nebraska athletic board of con trol has adopted a sporting attitude in declining to en ter the controversy. The Board is willing to stand on the searan's record. Bitter argument over the 1927 football championship in the Missouri Valley Confer ence would not be a happy ending to the old con ference, nor aa auspicious forerunner to the new six school conference. Nebraska does not have to fight for the recognition that is hers Anyway. Two clean-cut in tersections! victories and a hard-lack game with Mis souri proved to sport writers where the Huskers stand. Five Cornhnskers appear on one first AH-VaHey team as contrasted with three positions won by Mis souri. Commeiting on that odd situation, Clyde Mc- LriJe, Kansas City critic, says, "Naturally, the teams that are "np there," throw their stars into the spotlight more ihan the teams that are low in the cta-ading." The Iron's share of first ATI-Valley selec tions for Nebraska, instead of the claimant to Valley ':a.wpionKhip, speaks for it AL So does the invitation to Presnell, HowelL rd -sr'.ds to play on the All-Eastern football team in a r ;-.r. e at San Francisco, show the strength cf Nebraska.
