TELLING TALES
What did I tell you?-'
"1 told you so."
Probably two of the most objectionable remarks
man can make to his fellows, the above stand after
a few days reflection as the only suitable comments
of The Daily Nebraskan on that annual farce oi
campus frivolity, the Olympics.
Tradition ruled again! Sophomores hunted hid
ing places Friday evening. Scattered bands of
freshmen hunted sophomores. A few sophomores
(not more than ten) appeared for the clas scrap
Saturday. A slightly larger number of freshmen
were on hand for the scrap. And with mock sol
emnity, events -were contested and points were
awarded.
Question has arisen as to whether the points
for the pole rush should have been awarded to the
freshmen or not counted as was done. It really
makes little difference. Most of the members of the
contesting classes don't know yet what happened.
And few freshmen are wearing their green caps
despite their defeat by len sophomores.
Now is the time to take another step in the ma
turing of the University. If abolition of the Olym
pics is delayed until next fall, it will be postponed
apain as it was this year. If abolished now, a fresh
man spirit can be built next year, working toward
giving them a rational place in a modern educational
institution. Hazing has gone the way of the tandem
bicycle and the horse and buggy. The Olympics
could with little difficulty be relegated to the same
pile of useless activities to which the lower cltiss
societies were last year dismissed.
SCORCHED FOOTBALL
That football Is not a health building exercise but
rather a "substitute for war," was the Joint opinion
expressed by two of the country's leading educators
ai the recent state teachers' convention lu Omaha.
Continuing, they declared that college nu n "ouwht
to be devoting their time to searching for their lite
work, instead of kicking their brains out on a foot
ball field."
That prominent educators should take this stand
regarding this particular college sport U not. nir
prlsing. They are merely expressing the views of
hundreds of other men in similar positions. They
have as their lifework the task, of educating young
people and as a result are prone to place, scholarship
above everything else.
The criticism that, football is not a health build
ing exercise is open for debate. It ia a well-known
fact that any form of exercise is a body-builder and
nines football entails a considerable degree of exer
cise h is to be expected that it should aid in the
development of the physique. By playing foot hall,
the Individual is able to develop and harden his
muscles, quicken his nerves, and in general build
up his body. The energy is there and must, be
expended if not in football, in some other form of
sport or exercise.
Had the two ediyators considered the game
from this angle rather than from the "brutality"
point of view they might not have taken the same
stand. However, their criticism, overdone as It
?itma at first, has a significant factor. Overem
phasis on football may be detrimental to preparation
for life work, for fan as well as for player.
THE IJAGGER: Mid-semester examinations are
deirimental to good health. Too many student? got

"College men are growing small and are weaker
today than twenty years ago," declares the Univer
sity of Wisconsin line coach. Just a casual glance
at Nebraska's "Bonecrushers" should convince him
that he's wrong.
A PePauw professor is said to have spanked a
male member of one of his classes. K.vldcntly the
professor Is old fashioned enough to believe In cor

OTHER STUDENTS SAY-
MORE COAT RACKS
We should have more coat racks in the differ
ent class rooms. In Andrews hall I do not believe
there are any in the class rooms, and If there are
they are few and far between. If a student wears
a top coat or an overcoat, as most of us do, he us
ually has to leave it. on or else hBng It in (he win

MUSICAL LINCOLN
A' surprisingly large number of people attended
the first concert of the Lincoln Symphony orchestra
Sunday afternoon. This will be regarded with plcas
uit. by those people who insist that art, music and
lite ia tu re are gradually permeating the Middle West.
Had the concert been held on any other day
than Sunday; on a day when there are no amuse
nieiits in Lincoln, it tiiighl he contended that the
results would have been different. Instead of a full
lioii.se there might have been only a meager gioup
of highbrows. That, the remainder of the audience
would not put the music of the masters before their
Interest in the "talkies", their bridge and their golf
may be the opinion held by some.
We hold that this is not true. The audience
which li-tlened to the symphony Sunday afternoon
was composed of lovers of good music.
College life in books seems to
be a hodge-podge of impressions
and erroneous ideas, but occasion
ally one runs upon a short story
which has the flavor of realism.
It really should be the other way
around, for one usually expects the
person who writes treatises on
school life to give us a true, un
adulterated picture. Hut we rarely
find anything like that, remaps
we expect too much of the authors, have the opposite of an inferiorliy

j something of note between the cov
ers and not "drivll." Eh. well,

One Knglish professor said, the
other day, that if a person wants
to write, he should not read too
much. lie buries himself in liter
ature and can't dig out. or If ho
does, conies to the surface with an
Inferiority complex. It must be
true, for in much of the stuff we
read nowadays it is self-evident
that the author never reads any

American colleges from coast to
coast. Most of these themes treat
sludent life in the East, and as a
result, the readers in other sec
tions of the country cry out that
the book Is untrue or exaggerates.
Writers of short stories of the
college type make the same nils
takes, but at times we find an
author who treats of Mid-West prn
universities. These always seem
more realistic to us, and lead us
to reflect that perhaps we have
misjudged those who portray east
ern college life. Bernard DeVoto
is one of those who seems to have
grasped the true atmosphere of our
universities and he writes about
them In a most entertaining man

the Pitt running attack is one of

music that Europeans do.
Lincoln is to be congratulated for having a sym

OTHER l.'MTORS SAY-
ADDED BURDENS FOR THE REGENTS
It appears t le amendment submitted to the vot
ers of Nel r; skd at the recent election to put the
Nebraska t'ity School for Ihe Illlnd and the Omaha
School for the Deaf under the management of the
hoard of re-,-enis of the I nlvprsity of Nebraska has
carried. It. ii; iin'iui ut.atn ihe Issue arose during a
general election w In n attention was diverted to
other matters entirely. I ndotibtedly thousands of
people voted for the amendment under a misappre
hension "of the facts. The results are not for the
best Interests ot the tmi r.-ily or for Ihe two Instl
tut ions.
The board of regents has enough problems on I
its hands without loading additional ones upon it. j
Its members serve uithoiil pay. They are called;
upon to sacrifice a large amount of their time, and !
it is unfair to saddle additional responsibllll ies upon!
them when they have no relation or connection w ith '
the educational plant of the university. The great j
growth which has taken place in the last ten years j
means that a regent now must spend murh motet
time in discharging duties for which he receives no
compensation beyond Ihe sense of gratification in
tho opportunity for public service than members
did before that time.
The problems of administration in the School
for the Wind, and the School for the Deaf are not
solely educational. The attendants at these insti
tutions must be clothed and fed. Now the board j
of regents Is not In the market purchasing supplies.
The board of control looks after that part of the;
state's business in connection with most of the j
states Instilutions. The board of regents woudl be :
entirely .instilled in sub-leasing the new responsi- '
bility which had been added to duties to the board
of control and permit. It to continue In actual con
trol and direction of the affairs of the two Insti
tutions just as it, has in the past.
