SUBSCRIPTION RATE Single Copy 6 cents I1.2S semester that hell week ia not a carnival of joy for the upper classman. It assumes rather the aspects of an abli gation to the freshman'8 education, without which the neophyte is left lacking in a primary phase of fraternity life. He is raised to fraternal membership by degrees, not through the process of pledging. When hell week interfers with scholastic work, then it should be curtailed. But the majority of freshmen do not suffer more than a momentary handi cap through the lack of sleep, incurred during hell week. More, hell week is not as bad as it is pictured. West Point is an institution that is renowned for the high type of men that it turns out. Yet these men, during their first years, are reminded on every turn of their shortcomings. Their persons and person alities seem unimpaired by such alleged ordeals. Oscar Norling . Munro Keter Gerald Griffin Dorothy Nott Pauline Bilon Dean Hammond W. Joyce Ayres Blcbard F.

Business Manager Clrcalation manager Circulation Manager The usual Omaha newspaper understanding of conditions on the University campus was revealed in a startlingly clear manner in Sunday's Omaha World Herald when it referred to the Delta Chi "sorority." WHILE THE IRON IS HOT Pan-Hellenic resolutions recommending that the Men's Student Council abolish "Hell Week" and allow each fraternity "a tlree day pre-initiation period it wh'ch all night activities will be confined to the re spective premises" are being discussed at the Univer sity of Kansas. This measure is, no doubt, the result of recent unfavorable publicity following the arresting of several pledges who had been sent out at night on probation stunts. This movement at Kansas is t3'pical of. the senti ment throughout the various universities regarding the subject of fraternity probations. Practically all have realized that the old plan, in which an entire week was devoted the sending of pledges through a series of ridiculous stunts, many of them public, is obselete. Some, fearful of the public criticism they have received, instantly favored the elimination of any form of pro bation. Others studied the problem and modified the rules to suit local situations. Such was -the action taken last year by the Interfraternity Council. Similar wag the attitude at Michigan, as pointed out in an editorial reprinted in "In Other Columns." In these and many other institutions it was conceeded that certain advan tages were gained by such a probation period. Fraternities at Nebraska have recently completed their probations under the supervision of the Inter fraternity Council. While no incidents were given publicity, there were certain minor violations of the Council rules. In a few instances it was clearly shown that certain rules should be revised. The most glaring of these was the time set by the Council for probation. While these problems are in mind a study of the con ditions should be made and modifications, if necessary, added. It is hoped that the Council, having started ac tion, will continue their investigations and devise as appropriate a set of rules as possible. At its best, probation attracts adverse criticism. In Other Columns -FRATERNITY EDUCATION The letter which appeared in the Campus Com . ment Column of the Daily, Tuesday, revives an inter esting topic, one rhich has been given the earnest con sideration of college fraternities. Shall hell week be abolished, or shall it be allowed to continue? The complaint is apparently not directed at hell week alone, but also toward paddling and rough hous ing in general. The concensus of opinion among fra ternity men, men who have undergone the ordeais of pledgeship and initiation, would seem to vindicate these institutions go typical of college fraternities. When a freshman is pledged, he is likely to assume an exalted opinion of his qualifications and merit3. He has been singled out, from a large student body, for prospective membership in a fraternity. The members of the fraternity like the young man; his pledging bears this out. But will his. ego make a desirable mem ber? Enter the paddle. This instrument for good (or evil), chastens the spirit of the freshman. He hearkens back to the days of his boyhood, those days which he thought he had left behind. The punishment is not physical; it is mental. The freshman is no longer a fraternity pledge; he is a bad boy who is being punished for his sirif. And need it be said that the freshman Rocn regains his equilibrium through this homely means of expressing dissatisfaction with his actions? rraternities are not made up of individuals, or, - V -'J v.-il!, cjjotinta. These personalities will not fit in .h ny group. When a freshman is ffoing; through ! v tk, he receives consolation from the act that I 'rmer.ters, as he pi the norrclprff n, hevs '. sWiiiB or deai. In the years of h;s collpge .;..'..(' v initiation, he becomes aware of the fact Ten Nebraska farmers who have acquired a total of $75,000 each by farming have been styled by the University of Nebraska College of Agriculture, "Master Farmers."

Marjone Brinton, NO LOSERS HERE Nebraska and Missouri, habitual athletic rivals, will meet tonight on the forensic platform. Fortupate ly or unfortunately, as the case may be, there will be no decision. Although the no-decision system of inter collegiate debates has been used for several years by Nebraska debaters, students still ask, "Who won?' Nobody will win tonight. That fact should not lessen interest in the debate. The question, that of government interference into the rights of individuals is both timely and interesting, characteristics which have often been lacking in debate questions. In ac cordance with the custom begun last year the audi ence will indicate their judgment of the proposition both before and after the debate. And in accordance with the practice of several years standing, the audi ence will be given a chance to share in the debate by the open forum at the close of the formal discussion. Debate is generally considered too heavy by the average student. It is not necessarily so. It may be most entertaining. Invariably it furnishes food for thought. The subject which will be discussed tonight is particularly significant when it is remembered that the bulk of the University community will very shortly have to play their share in the determination of the policy -hich will be discussed this evening. ARISTOCRATIC SNOBS It is true that there are a number of persons who believe themselves to be the measuring stick by which the less fortunate may judge their failings. How gal lantly one of these pauses to retrieve a dainty hand kerchief dropped by a fair maiden. How easily he fails to see the timid sn-ile of greeting extended him by some classroom companion whose clothing is not of the latest style. Yes, here is the true snob. Here is the one who has become a common sight in society since the begin ning of that time way back in the Middle Ages when Knights and Ladies, Tournaments and Gauntlets, were common. Since the founding of aristocratic institu tions he has appeared the common person affecting superiority. Perhaps snobbery is of value at a proper time and in a proper place. But in a University founded and supposedly composed of children of people, who, in a democratic nation, govern this nation, such pretention has the flavor of distinct poor taste. Here at the University of Kansas are lessons to be taught. The socially afraid must learn to under stand that the mechanism of our society is as dependent on their individual actions as it is on the efforts of those who are so willing to display their pretensions. But, the pretentious also, with their false sense of supe riority, must learn that it is the great mass of common persons which is the true foundation of a government that is and ever must be, democratic.

A College Bookshelf (By Intercollegiate Press) If there was any doubt about the success of War wick Deeping's first and second attempts to capture an American audience (there was none so far as we know, for the sale of Sorrell and Son, and Doomsday have been phenomenal) that must have been shattered when there arrived in this country his latest, Kitty. Like Sorrell and Son, Kitty is another post-War story, in fact it finds much of its material in the War itself. Alex St. George was a weakling, physically and somewhat a weakling spiritually, who was cast into the War against his wishes. Fortunately for him he was loved by Kitty before he went, and against the wishes of the stern Mrs. St. George, the couple were married. Mrs St. George, the "good" woman type who in really a devil in disguise, refused to notice the marriag, because Kitty was a "shop girl." Ihert" iC8,the Pl0t' A,eX is wound(,d n France, and bought back to this country with a loss of all memory and his legs paralysed. Mrs. St. George takes nim home, and refuses admittance to Kitty. nmMThe 8,t0,7. hinBeS arUnd how Ki"y Ived the ThomT lh:mTher husband to their !. a home which she had to make for him before ,hc could bring him to it some of the best reading we have done in manv a day.

"A scientific man is averse to set tling anything by argument, by in stinct and by experience," he con- believes in his science but is mili tant in his defense of it. As a man lives and sees changes constantly take place in any science, he becomes aha AlAwnnr VMAVis AAtiaaWof-iirA I and less aggressive. No Sympathy With Dogmatism "A man can't be in a science, par ticularly in zoology, without having seen so many radical changes and so many beliefs fundamentally mod ified that a dogmatic attitude is only possible, it seems to me, if the indi vidual be' naturally dogmatic and possess a. relatively narrow outlook on the field," he asserted. "I have no sympathy with dogmatism in science at all." One reason for the existent feel ing that science is becoming dog matic, in the opinion of Doctor Wol cott, is that when scientists have been asked for opinions and gave qualified answers, there immediately arose a doubt in the mind of the 16th A O B-4423 other persons as to the soundness of their opinions. Scientists soon learn ed this and began to keep their doubts to themselves. Consequentiv when they gave an unqualified opin' ion on some subject which was short! ly afterward refuted by additional evidence, their previous statements appeared to have been dogmatic. Doctor Wolcott illustrated thi point by citing the instance of onl student who wished to drop the course in zoology because he thought he was being asked to believe in ev olution. When it was explained to" him that he was not asked to believe in evolution, but only to study it in order that he might make an intelli gent decision and consider it fairly" he replied that he had come into the course to learn zoology, that ooloe. ists made so many qualified state ments that it was impossible to learn facts, and that what he wanted to know was facts not theory.
