QUEEN
THE OFFICIAL IS ALWAYS RIGHT
Many sport fans may not agree with the above statement but
nevertheless It Is true. Years ago Marshall Field adopted as his
slogan "The Customer Is always right" and has stuck to it through
out all of his years as a successful merchandiser. The result Is one
of the greatest department stores In the entire world. And so should
Nebraskans, students and general public alike, look upon the offi
cials. Their duties are clearly defined In the rulo books, they study
the rules carefully, they are the experts In their field. They see
the game differently than those of us In the stands. They follow It
with a critical eye. Minor Infractions of the game are often a nat
ural result of fast play and many of them are bound to arise In a
hotly contested game. It Is to protect teams against these infrac
tions and to protect games as a whole that officials' are employed.
Without officials any game would be nothing more nor less than
a melee.
The natural desire to win causes the home crowd to want fouls
called on the visiting team with none, called on the home team.
But both teams will foul and accordingly both should he penalized.
It Is the officials' duty to "call" fouls as they see them. Those of
us in the stands may "not always agree with these decisions but are
we being good sports when we rise up In arms and hiss and boo
even though the official may have made a mistake? ! think not.
This Is not typical of Nebraska, which has always had a rine record
or sportsmanship both on the field and in the stands. Let's make
It even greater bv adopting the slogan "Nebraska respects the offi
cials decisions" because good sports will do this and surely all
Nebraskans" want to be good sports.

"Looking at Lincoln In a geo

may conclude that Kentucky gave
him birth, Indiana gave him char

and the God of the universe gave

return, Abraham Lincoln left to
this country example of unfalter

Ideal of abounding human sym

Professor Gregg told the story of

Free Health Treatments Are
More Popular With Men
Than With Women, Says
Pharmacy College Dean
Outlining tho University's facil
ities for the handling of student 111
noss, Doan R. A. Lyman of tho Col
lege of Pharmacy, explained yester
day that as many as sixty students
visit the university dispensary on
some days, with the average rest
ing between twenty and fifty.
"A great many moro men than
women students coma to tho dls
pensary," explained Dean Lyman.
Tho dispensary Is located on the
second floor of Pharmacy hall, and
students aro given free medical at
tention there.
"The reason for this majority of
men students," opined Doctor Ly
man, "Is probably that girls prefer
their own doctors, and that men are
more prompt at demanding physical
care. A man student gets a twinge
in his toe and reports at the dis
pensary to find, out what causes It,
while a woman would probably let
It gu."
Discusses Spinal Meningitis
Replying to a question concern
ing the possible spread of a spinal
melngltis epidemic. Dean Lyman
said that no cases to his knowledge,
existed In tho University or in Lin
coln. Only the cases that were re
ported in Cotner have been brought
to his attention.
"This disease Is very serious, but
not extremely contagious," stated
Doctor Lyman. "It is caused by In
fection of the spinal cord covering,
and often proves fatal. If an
epidemic should arise, or if cases
were reported in the University
they could be adequately handled
In the Infirmary when it is opened.
Dean Lyman is in charge of pre
paration for the Infirmary, and is
Interested In its existence. "We
hope," he remarked, "that the In
firmary will bo opened this month.
Rooms are situated in that building
so that cases of spinal meningitis
or other contagious diseases could
be isolated and cared for. Special
sen-Ice would be given to such
patients.
Staff Is Announced
The new Infirmary Is situated on
It street, in the large house west
of Ellen Smith hall. The staff who
will reside In the building and take
charge of its patients are Mrs.
Lolsc Vinlng, formerly In charge
of tho Temple cafeteria, and Miss

Happy days are these for tho

with Cornhusker pictures, weather
moderation, two bank holidays and
above all a resetting for the Aw

Stage fright or some other sim
ilar malady caused an unlucky
or lucky, Individual to move, with
the result of double exposure,
blurred subject and other techni
cality of description that baffled
even the skill of Al Larravle, cam
pus photographer, to reproduce.
It has been rumored from some
non-authorltatlve headquarters that
the studio will be equipped with a
new assortment of straight Jackets
and other Instruments of torture,
In order to get a presentable pic
ture of this organization, without
which, no Cornhusker would be
complete. There has been no def

not bpen for inspection of any such

Douglas Timmerman, editor of
the Awgwan, explains the Incon
gruity of such a development by
placing the blame en masse upon
the whole group. That Is the clever
explanation of the thing without
as much as Intimating the restless
