Students are not inclined to take seriously
anything outside Iheir classes and their reere-j
aiion. They are not interested in national af
fairs, nor in anything that transpires in ihel
outside world. T!ut Nebraska seniors, at least,
should be more or less vitally interested in the
iicstioii of employment.
W e realize that no immediate cure for unem
ployment can be advanced. The causes for
such a condition are bound to be far-reaching
and underlying. The road back to prosperity
will be long and tiresome. But perhaps sen
iors will not think of this, and will attend
merely io learn "how to get a job'' after grad

may be. we ho the undergradutes do attend.

'Communist Mediums.'
TO Tllli KIMTOU:
Once again Ihe iUeslion of compulsory mili
tary drill al our slate university is a topic of
discussion. Colonel Oury, commandant of ihe
school, is being severely criticized by some of
our ministers and editors over the statement
he made in regard to communistic activities
iu some of our church organizations. The col
onel was very conservative in his statements
and didn't ti'll onetenlh of what should he
told, and on which he is undoubtedly reliably
informed.

we must admit wherever good pay is involved
there one can also find willing workers to
spread the message. Many an unscrupulous
preacher, teachers, secretary, labor leader and
politician is subtly using his-organization to
further the cause of communism not because
he believes in this political hysteria but be
cause he is willing to do most anything for a
price. On the other hand hundreds ai-e ardent

When these questions are cleared up we will
hae to admit Colonel Oury is staling fads and
should le asked to lell more about the activi
ties of these fanatics instead of condemning
him for giving us some timely warnings.

share along this line by requiring her univer

TO COLONEL Ol'UV: ( liepriiitt'd by permission")
1 have read with a great deal ol interest
viiin- fiiio discussion of tin- uresent status of I
the military department, and also the remarks
of William" T. McCleery, editor of The Imily
Nelitaskan.
The line of argument presented ly the un
derclassmen reflects ihe results of a siilitle
propaganda that has been gonig on in our lead
ing colleges and universities since the war. and
is apparently just now beginning to gel results
in expression Iroiu ihose to whom llu propa
ganda has been imparted.
They will argue, to keep us from attacking
iheir work, that there is not enough of ihis
taught to hurt anyone. However, when ihe
vast majority of a student council will express
itself iu the manner that it apparently lias, it
is a ipiesiion as to just how much is really be
ing accomplished.
Stay with your fine work. Colonel, keep i.p
the department lo full strength, weed out from
our instructors those detrimental to our High
est and Hest American Ideals, and preserve for
future generations Ihis government of ours for
which our forefathers and our buddies have

That Vacancy Again.
TO THE L'DITOli:
Cousiderable discussion has been aroused
over appointment of a person 1o fill the senior
vacancy on ihe publications board. It has been
suggested 1 but it is unnecessary lo fill ihe va
cancy, lei ling it ride until next spring, w hen
a new member could be selected at the regular
spriug elections.
This is a mistake. If the senior is valuable
during the first semester, he certainly is dur-
ing the second. liecause ol appointments
w hich riiav come up before the spring ,.ccl inns ,
-. ' . i .i 4 f ii ... i . . , .
it is very essential that full student representa-
on the hoard.
is to lie filled, how is it to be
done? The Student council seems lo tne lo be
("tie lotrical body to fill the vacancy. Some
hate advocated that the senior class hold a spe
cial election. Some have suggested that ihe
publication board doesn't waul to. and won't,
according lo word released yesterday. The
choice thus seems io rest between ihe senior
class election and a Studeut council appoint
ment. For the sake of impartiality, and to take the
thing out of polities as much as possible, it
would seem best to let the Student council ap
point the member. It would make no material
difference to the council members who were
chosen for the post. To some of the politically
minded members of the senior class., it might
make a lot of difference. The council is made
up mainly of fair-minded studeuts who have
nothing to gain or lose by their acts. If this
is the case, why uot let the council make the
appointment?
At any rale, whether the council, the senior
class, or ihe brot berhood of railway engineers
fills the vacaucv, it slxmlil be filled.

LOOSE THREADS
By Gene McKim
Much has been said during the
past few years regarding the way
wardness of the youth of the land.
Many have pictured the younger
generation as going straight to
eternal perdition. They have been
frightfully worried about the fu
tuie of mankind that must of ne
cessity, sooner or later be trusted
to the care of this group of sup
posed rounders, which at present
arc doing nothing but eating,
drinking and making merry.
A few venturesome souls have
attempted a defense of modern
I youth, trying to picture it in a
more sane manner, and holding
out a bit of hope for the future.
Few. however, have put forth
quite as well expressed a defense
' of "Flamine Youth" as did H. L.
Mencken in the March editioD of
the American Mercury. Whether
or not one agrees with Mr. Menck
en's policies as a whole the youth
of the land at least owe him a vote
of thanks for his presentation of
their side of the argument.
Mr. Mencken opens his editorial
entitled "Less Noise Than Former
ly," by saying, "The late pious bel
lowing against the crimes and car
nalities of 'Flaming Youth' seems
to be dying out: one hears a great
deal less talk than aforetime about
gin toting in the colleges and neck
ing in shady lanes. This is a wel
come relief, and perhaps shows
that there is such a thing as hu
man progress."
The author continues to say that,
in his opinion, the generator-j of
all the unfavorable propaganda re
garding the youth of the land were
"old3ters. male and female, whose
own youthful conduct was any
thing but chemically pure."
Speaking of literary censors Mr.
Mencken says: "And practically
all of the literary censors, when
they "allege solemnly, to the aston
ishment of the rest' of us, that the
single reading of a naughty book
can establish lifelong habits of sec
ret and unsanitary character are
simply publishing incautious auto
biography. "The truth is that the moral
divagations of the youth of today
probably 'do not differ three per
cent from those of the youth of
yesterday. When I was a young
ster, which was very long ago,
with Victoria in full blast on her
throne, great numbers of college
boys were diligent lushers, just as
they are now; the only difference
I can make out is that they then

To date to neck, or to neck to
date, according to Mr. Mencken,
was as much a matter for discus
sion in Queen Victoria's day as it
is 8t present.
He says: "There whs necking,
too, in my esrly days, and all of it
that the traffic would bear
There were, to be sure, boys who
refrained and gals who escaped,
but they were just as rare and
singular as non-neckers are today.
The vast majority were quite as
willing In the dim, gas-lighted
parlors of that remote era as their
heirs and assigns are in parked
roadsters now. Perhaps they had
a shade less opportunity, but that
was surely not their fault.
"A little necking, I am con
vinced, does no normal and
healthy girl any appreciable harm.
On the contrary, it tends to im
prove her, if not only ridding her
of groundless fears.... In case the
business goes further than mere
necking, there is some ground for
sociologists to intervene, but I
doubt that it goes further today
any oftener than it did yesterday."
In the light of the recent com-

ly-one baseball enthusiasts s'gned

other evening at a meeting called
by Head Coach Harold Browne
Fltfht lettermen nre back to form
the nucleus or tne team.
Since the meeting the candidates
have been taking light exercises
on the handball courts, and about
March 10, weather permitting, the
work will start out of doors with
all men reporting. Not like the pro
fessional teams the Hutker squad
will not take a swing down into
the Grapefruit league, commenc
ing at the present down among
the sunr?y elimos of Florida, Tex
as, California, and Georgia. In
stead the Huskers will have to Im
agine Landis field, the scene of
Huskerland baseball activity.
Pitching is Popular.
Judging from the signatures of
the other evening, pitching is the
n.ost popular pastime on the base
ill field, w ith all men signing the
contract to tryoiit. Among these
are Henrj Armatis, Wayne Fair
child, and Clyde Bittner who let
tered last year. With three out
field positions to fill, eight men
have signed to try out as fly
chasers. Kd Kotab is the only let
ter man back.
In the receiving line, Russell
Smygg, and Meredith Williams,
lettermen, have signed up along
with four other candidates, while
candidates for first base and the
keystone sack number five each.
io leiiermfii nre urn iui im-ac
positions. According to rumor the
No lettermen are back for these
mcnt regarding the drinking in
American colleges, the American
Mercury's editor makes some
rather refreshing and encouraging
statements.
He says: "In the department of
drink they (referring to propo
nents of the evils of the day) are
equally unreliable. On the one
hand, they grossly exaggerate the
amount of guzzling among the
the young that is going on today.
and on the other hand they gross
ly unuerestimaie the amount thai
went on twenty or thirty years
ago. There has been, unuer pro-
hibtion, an undoubted increase in
drinking in certain circles, but il
is not serious in amount, and it is
by no means confined to ihe young.
My own impression is tnai me
chief speeders are married women
about thirty-five in other words,
not youngsters, but the mothers of
youngsters. These baggages, hav
ing taken lo liquor somewnai im
prudently, fall into the error of
assuming that everyone else is go
ing tha same route. 1 doubt it. . . .
"Most American men, i neneve.
drink less today than they did
ten vears ago. and a great deal less
than they drank in 1900. So with
college Doys. They may go on oc
casional gaudy toots, but the
steady boozing of thirty years ago
is now o-it of fashion. Even wom

more decorous habits."

Again Seeks Lead
In Rig Six Match
AMES. Ia. The Iowa State
swimming team is again a con
tender for the conference cham
pionship by virtue of having de
feated the Big Six champions, Ne
braska, 55 to 29, in its firt Big
Six dual swimming match. Dur
ing the lar.t two years the Cyclones
and Cornhuskers have contended
for the honor, Iowa State winning
in 3 929. while the Nebraskans
nosed ahead by three points last
year.
Altho Kansas has recently
forged ahead in the aquatic sport,
placing third last year. Coach Jake
Daubert does not fear the Jay
hawkeis for he has on his Cyclone
team four men who have beaten
existing conference records in
competition this year.
Unser and Fraser have both
bettered the existing time for the
440-yard free style, Sands has
raced the 200-yard breast stroke
under the existing time of 1:57.7,
and Weld ha3 lowered the time for
the 150-yard backstroke. Besides
this, the Cyclone medley relay
team has bettered the existing
conference record for the medley
fvent.
The Big Six meet will be held at
Kansas City March 14.

Every department in every

will prepare an exhibit of its work.
Nearly every division of the col

a display sometime during the

'CLIMC 1 OK COEDS'
IS SYRACUSE STUNT
Something new in the way of
clinics is the "clinic for coeds" at
the University of Syracuse, where,
under direction of the dean of
women, the freshman girl is
studied and catalogued as to aca
demic pursuits, friendships, recre
ations, clothes, love affairs, reli
gious ideas, vocational aspirations,
use of money, contacts with home
and personal habits.
Among the information obtained
in this clinic is the fact that 41
percent have the habit of smoking
in college. The data shows also
that 85 percent of the first year
girls have decided already what
their work is to be after gradua
tion. Twenty-three percent of the
coeds avowed they had been in
love many times; 8 percent said
they ha'd had occasional "crushes"
on boys; 21 percent said they had
been in love twice; 10 percent said
they had loved once, and 31 per
cent said they had never loved at
all!
As a special' concession to sen
iors of Lynchburg college, they are
allowed to make dates with per
mission of the administration, and
leave the campus after 6 in the

"The element of communism In
China Is threatening the activi
ties of the era of reconstruction,"
Lyman Hoover, Y. M. C. A. field
representative to China, declared
in a recent letter to C. D. Hays of
the university Y. M. C. A. Mr.
Hoover is in China aiding t'U.i
movement as a result of the ef
forts bv the students of the ftocky
Mounatln field of which the Uni
versity of Nebraska is a member.
Hardships are emnirca mil Mr.
Hoover reports accomplishments
worthy of mention. Groups of col
lege men and owmen, go out 30 to
50 miles into the country villages
to carry on their work, he writes:
Almost always the little mceilnp
houses are jammed to their capa
city, while :he college people re
late their messages to the young
people of China. They plead for h
consideration of the Christian mes
sage and the co-operation of tho
officials in the reconstruction in
China.
However, he pointed out the
young workers '.experience many
difficulties in dealing with the
communistic element exlsiting in
China at the present day. It seems
that the communists. In their ar
dent activities, spread handbills
thru the various villnge.s condemn
ing the students who carry on re
ligious activity. On the back or
these bills appears the word "sha,"
meaning "slay" or "kill."
But, withstanding these threats.
he added the workers go on and
in many cases they are given the
support of the city officials,
meager as it may be, to carry out
their purpose.
