The uew tax otion system will draw minify from wwiltliy groups on tho campus and dit tibute il amon. the struggling little brothers, bo thai inry may retam their life blood. This action mark an important victory in the battle for vigorous, valuable student government. Prior to this time, the Student council had no nossiblo revenue. It led beggar's life, drawing ita existence from ad ministrative chanty. Other potential organ izationa wero stifled by the same lack of fin ances. If the board of regents had recognized the ucceaily and value of biudent organizations to this extent, perhaps the future will bring other helpful concessions. Activities constitute an important factor in college life. Without thein, college would De no more interesting, no moro thrilling, than a corresDondencS school Those who excel in activities and athletics are the leaders in a universe of youth. They have the rower to make or break an institution, for in their hands rests the magic wand which can instill life and fire into their followers. Financing ot organizations will make it poisible for then to be more virile in their at titude toward student government. They will drop the mask of mediocrity and advance to their proper place in a university of some 10, 000 students. Nebraska has taken no part in national organization of student governing bodies in the past three years. Its Student council, with empty purse, has relinquished its membership in an American federation. Its delegates no longer represent the University of Nebraska in collegiate circles. Things are different now. With financial backing, substantial student groups will no longer be looked upon as feeble parasites. They will be able to serve the university in a respectable manner, holding their heads high in association with other schools. Too many individuals regard publications, councils and other organizations as superflu ous bodies useful in the manufacture of Big Men on the Campus and for the promotion of graft. In the past, perhaps student leaders have misused their power. Today a new type of activity man is being developed and he will not forsake his school for the mere scraping together of a little tainted money. Some will disagree. There are, naturally, shoddy collegians who would sell Memorial stadium for a Ford roadster, but the class of leaders does not includo these men. They have . outlived even their uselessness on this campus. The last three years have brought a new idffa of conduct and management into student activities. The revolution has not been sud denit is still in process. Nebraska lost the Awgwan because frat ernity politics did not take cognizance of ability in dishing out the plums. That unfor tunate happening may have had something to do with the cleaning up of politics. Nebraska men and women have an im portant task to perform this year. With suf ficient funds to carry on their duties respect ably, they should pave the way for a new era in student activities. Square elections, honest publication board members these will elevate the University of Nebraska to its proper niche in the collegiate heirarchy. tivly fonrerned with the Interests of the tu dent body.

The acquisition of an education is not always a pleasant process. Those who cannot resist the temptation to stay away from classes on pleasant days may find future employers less lenient than collree professors. They may re ceive their sheepskin, but find themselves woe fully unprepared for life. Cutting classes is a smart trieK, juhx une stealing silverware from hotels but not as profitable in the long run.

C, who appears in Morning Mail, recalls the little jazz caps of junior high school days. Those brilliant skull coverings which served to keep one's unruly pompadour in place. Would the sophisticated freshman look more dignified in a scarlet and cream cap! S. F. C.'s point concerning patriotism, as shown by the color of the cap, is an idea. Some .future Innocents society may choose to adopt the suggestion, but tradition has held for the current year.

Though that individual-was not re- -r.rible for the actual extension of time, his i,'.:t:3tidj of the issue brought its practicability to the attention of those who were delegated to enact it. Unfortunately, many considered that The brnskan was edging beyond its rightfuL field ; i taking issue on the subject of coed conduct. A t Indent publication, however, must be ac- Why So Green?

Wouldn t it be much better for the incoming students to don caps portraying the traditional colors of the university rather than the embarrassing and harassing colors of green freshmen Judeine from this year's crop of new stu dents, the green caps are entirely out of place. The average high school graduate, bent upon hichrr education at a university or college, is too sophisticated to look decent in a green lid. Therefore it seems it would be more appro priate, at the same time more patriotic to the beloved institution which they represent, u me caps which must be worn by freshmen were of the Cornhusker colors rather man jne comoiu ation now used. S. F. C. COLLEGE COMMENT Another rush week. Another anxious time for lots of people. This is the week when some of our freshmen, our high school hot shots and great athletes, will be made to feel very, -very important. Next week, of course, after the button is on, different ideas will be implanted. But this week Alphonse, the high-school girls' delight, is the wonder of the universe. Let him make the most of it! There are going to be plenty of men and women who will feel pretty blue. They will be rushed but they won't get a bid. Somebody didn't like something about them that seemed important, such as their looks or their clothes or their shoe shines . And entirely outside these, utterly un niHhed, stands the body of those who, averag ing no great shakes in families or games or clothes or grades, are permitted, for some un known reason by the grace of an easy-going chancellor and board of regents to come to the University and help determine its reputa tion and the average of its atudnt body, in spite of their not joining a Greek lodge or having a car and money and debts ; in short in spite of doing nothing except to be them selves and plod along. - It's a funny world- vt course, tney ougni .not to be allowed in. Can't we have a "grand father clause" or something? "The poor ye have always with you," sam Jesus. He might have added the rich, the middle-class, the Greek, the barb, the black, the white, the average, the stupid, the bril liant, and plenty more. You'll find them all on Oread.
