Class officers at Syracuse university arc
rei"ired to make speeches immediately after
they're elected. Terhaps that's what Nebraska
needs to eliminate some of its politicians.
Already several juniors who were disap

prizes are offered.

Chancellor Burnett has come forward again
and voices his desire with that of many stu

in the minds of Cornhuskers. For without

action of the chancellor in his move to bring

life of the student. In writing on this subject
one has to pause and think with the pmnipres

When Chancellor Burnett chose this method
of interesting students in qualities of leader

becomes more closely associated with the Ne
braskans who attend this university and gives
himself the opportunity of studying them and
their lives from a more personal angle, ne
also affords many college men and women an
extra satisfaction or comfort with the prizes
that he is offering to the worthy student who

Dissatisfied With Saving.
The plan of co-operative buying recently
suggested by a fraternity steward here brings
to mind the results of such a system at the
University of Illinois. Though it was air eco
nomic success, co-operative buying among forty
out of one hundred Greek-letter societies at
the university last year proved so unsatisfac
tory that only a dozen organizations were will
ing to continue the plan this year.
There were several reasons for abaudoning
the co-operative idea. The plan centered on
competitive bidding for the trade of these forty
allied fraternities and sororities. The low-bidding
merchant was happy. The legion ho lost
the contract were peeved, would not advertise
in college publications, would not support the
university, cussed and fumed generally. To
regain their good will the plan had to be.
dropped.
Most amazing among other sundry causes
for discontinuance of this co-operative arrange
neat is the attitude of fraternitiea. Their rea-

Nebraska City News Press: Soon after a
young man gets out of college and begins to
settle down into a job that requires aa much
attention as a "college wiaow,
the "whoopie" that was once his bread and
meat as a college student. '
Frinstance, a formeh college student stood
on the curb the other day, watched and listened
to a group of University of Nebraska students
passing through on their way to the football
game at Columbia. The visitors were shouting,
singing, hailing each other, readjusting the
placards which adorned their cars.

"The thing that I am working
for and hope to see realized event

a required two year all-university
course for every student entering
the Institution which would be a
prerequisite to professional study
of any nature. Steps In that direc
tion have been taken by other
schools of the country. I care not
whether you call it the college of
