Tn view of tliis fact nnd the fact that interest
in tlio actunl Olympics themselves was rne
tienlly nil, the university and the. Innocents
society saw fit to discontinue the custom.
Since that time Koinvlhiuy seems to have
been lacking in the fresliinan cup tradition.
Previously, if the freshmen won the Olyinj.'e?
they could discard their crips, but if they lost
they were to continue to vrenr them unlil
ThunksKh'infc, or until the first snowfall. AVith
the Olympics jrono there arose t lie itU'stion tn
when the frosh Vhould discard their oi.jis.
During the pnst two yours it v.rs iive;il
that if the rreshmnn football team won :i e.r
tain frame, the enps could be put asltle. Tint
this plan did not arouse the interest that should i
rightfully accompany the diseardiny: tf ihe
caps.
This year the Innocents have devised n new '
plan. A tujr-of-wnr between representative'
groups of freshmen and sophomore.:, between I
the halves of the Iowa game next Saturday. ;
will decide the fate of the red caps. It is honed '
that this plan will revive the spirit of the!
Oly in pies,

EPISODES

The spectre of tha Russian Bear
is looming' on the Far Kaslurn
horizon, and it probably means one
thlny trouble. Dispatches to
London report the existence of a
rscrot Chinese-Russian treaty, ob
viously ajralniit Japan. Other dis
patches report the advances of
Jtmnnese intantrv against two
t'eiinite points, both cX. which are
within tie Russian "sphere of in

tliu situation is rapidly approach-1

The Kovist government was
warned la-t wee!; by the Japanese
not to r.ioti'ito troops tn the aian

this waining has been disregarded
inasmuch as Chinese military

We Are Too
Militaristic.
The news that the United States has agreed
to the one year armament construction truce
beginning Nov. 1 is comforting, and indicates
that the government is attempting to take defi
nite action in the matter of disarmament and
1o co-operate with the rest of the nations in
this regard. During this holiday period army
and navy construction now underway will go
forward, but no new construction will be
started. The holiday arrangement will go into
effect only if the other major powers accept
this plan of the League of Nations.
Every year disarmament conferences are
held where the major powers wrangle over
bow to cut down armies and navies and how
much to slice, off. and each year sees very little
if anything, actually done about cutting down.
At the same time that the government decrees
that one or two warships are to be destroyed,
it authorizes the building of one or two others
which are more expensive.
Because nations fear each othc-r they build
np a socalled defense. No one of these nation
fares to dispense with its arms because it fears
that such action will subject it to attack by
mother nation which did not rut down its
army and navy. Disarmament conferences arc
interpreted to be merely high-powered schemes
by some ambitious nations to weaken the rest
of the countries to its own advantage.
Perhaps this is true. Maybe the nations of
1he world are a scheming lot of imperialists
who revel in their power to dominate other
peoples. But it is likewise true that it is the
nations which are so constituted and not the
people. Any hostility that exists belween twb
rations is strictly between nations. The people
of the two countries have no ill feelings toward
each other.
But, you sat, the country, particularly this
country, is composed of the people, and if they
have, no ill feelings then the country will have
no ill feelings. This is not true. The citizens
of a republic hate not so much to do with ihe
direct operation of their government as it gen
erally claimed. .Besidf-s this, they are easily
led to believe that war is necessary ami bene,
ficial.
Something must be done to change this con
dition. The people should be educated, from
hildhood on that war is destructive, futile,
horrible and unnecessary. How can we boast '
of anv sort of civilization when men are being I
trained in the most efficient methods of self
destruction ?
To be sure, if the Tinted S4ates or any other
nation at the present lime were to cast aside
its armed forces, it would be the prey of any
other nation, large or small, who sought 1o
take advantage of its weakness. A sudden dis
armament program is not satisfactory. Instead,
an educational campaign should be started to
make the population of ihis country, and of
1he whole world, peace minded, rather than
military minded. The education should start
with school children and be carried on up to
and thru the colleges. It should be conducted
by persons who are honest and are desirous of
implanting sound truths in the minds of the
people.
In this way war can be eliminated from our
oeial order. A mere attempt to get 1he other
fellow to reduce his means of protection will
uot produce results, as long as this national
antagonism is maintained. The disarmament
process must he started with the education of
1h people. We can hardly e.tp'H the peace
Tii.nded leaders to arise from a populalion t lint
is militaristic, and without the pence minded
leaders disarmament will nner become a
reality.

TO THE KMTOK:
As a veteran of several intramural cam
paigns hero at Nebraska, it seems to nie that
congratulations are in order for Mr. Vogeb-r.
During his leadership of this most beneficial ! t.wersies, it begins to look
by the Chinese, and will expire
today. The stage is set for war,
and P-t the uresent time it looks as
j though nothing short of a miracle
, will stop it. The League of Na
tions and the United Stctes have
r.U.npted to make a settlement,
but so far they have been unable
to make much headway. The en
trance of Ru.cia into the con
troversy makes the situation
doubtly difficult, and the world
will indeed be fcrUiaite if war is
avoided.
)
Speaking of three cornered con-
of all university athletic departments, because
of the fact that it reaches the greater student
body instead of the robust few, the department
has developed from a chaos of unorganized
events and contests, so great in number that
little time m as left for anything else, into the
well organized, smoothly running system of
today.
Only the more popular and practical sports
are on the schedule with plenty of time for
each, the natural result being keen competition,
with hard fought games in every sport.
This year has marked another turning point
in the development of the department. Hereto
fore, the contestants have played havoc, with
the rules of the departments, in varying de
crees ranging from running non-members in
the indoor track meet, to playing the ineligible
basketball star under the name of the brother
who was out at the house washing dislus.
Unlike the platforms of ou;- political factions
or the glorified promises of various campus
organizations to really do something, both of
which soon grow moth-eaten and forgotten,
Mr. Vogeb-r has stuck to his guns on intra
mural rules. Soccer teams v.-civ ruled off the
field for failure to appear in so ft -t of d shoes as
required by the rules, a copy of which was sent
to all contesting groups.
though we are going to have one
in our own country. The two prin
ciple actors. President Hoover,
and William Howard Gardiner,
president of the navy league, have
tern delegated to the back pages
in face of an announcement by
Secretary of Navy Charles Francis
Adams. Mr. Adams entered the
fray with a few statements con
cerning the integrity of the World
Peace foundation. Although he
made no mention of the Hoover
Gardiner dispute, it is believed
that Adams has taken it upon him
self to champion the cause of the
navy. It is also rumored that Mr.
Hoover zjnd Mr. Adams hold differ
ent views on the navy question,
and that Mr. Adams might resign.
Regardless of Mr. Adam's state
ment, it is evident that Mr. Gardi
ner talked too much when he
charged the president with "abys
mal ignorance" of naval policy,
and asset ted that the president
was "dictating its external subordi
nation to those ' of foreign naval
powers." An apology is due Mr.
Hoover. Nevertheless it would be
a good thing to get this whole
j navy situation boiled down to
honest-to-goodnsss facts instead of
propaganda before this 1932 dis
armament conference convenes in
February.

A fellowship for research work
in education, carrying a stipend of

committee a careful, confidential
judgment of the personality of the

The official bulletin making

mends a personal meeting with a
member of the committee, al
though this is net listed a3 re

misei.neeiition of the legal meaning of a consideration in
a marriage contract won for John Henry Keriakedes, one of the
innro ticoniinent. or at least, larger members of the freshman law
class, the obligation to wear the brown derby, awarded weekly
in the Jaw college to Ihe freshnuin making the dumbest crack.
John informed the professor that one of the ehiel eonsnlcral ions
would be whether or not me ginu
was good looking.
The awarding of the del by is an
old law collego custom, and tne
law college is proud of it, as it is
of some of its other traditions.
Senior law students this year, for
example, have revived the cane
carrying tradition; they refer to it
over there b; speaking ot ne
seniors "wearing" canes.
The canes lust appeared last
week but the 'derby was resur
rected at the first of the semester
and has already been worn by a
number of freshman. Each week a
more or less informal vote is taken
on some of ths dumber of the
dumb remarks that pass and ordi
narily one is considered outstand
ing enough to prevent any argu
ments over the respective merits
cf competing "cracks." Appar
ently, John Henry's last, week's
offering won the award by acclamation.

Kver siuee the abolishing of the Olympics
tv.'o years ago. there has been something kck

fore th't Olympics was a time for all sopho
noiv;i and freshmen to be up and about, hazing
f.:eli othf r in both large and small unorganized

?;.-oup of sophomores v. as in an embarrassing
posiiton, and likewise a lone bophomore caught
by a pack of howling freshmen was in sad
St mights.
These aeiions vciv a bad feature accom

fact that lh slud'-nts formed into mobs and
entered theaters, bufjf.es and street ears, and
did eoiiw'd' mbb- damage to property that did

Why does the agricultural college always re
ceive the greater proportion of annual appro

There can be only one answer. Many uni

greater emphasis on luxuries. The social life
of the sorority and fraternities requiring i.tu
dents to establish standards to which ihpy can
not reasonably be expected to continue to

rests with the activities and result of the Ag
college rather than with the other schools find
colleges.

j The freshman cap tradition is
'. one which has been sponsored at
Nebraska lor many years. This
year however, th! tug-of-war as
a means of oetermining how long
the headgear must be worn is an
innovation. Tn times past the an
nual Olympics between freshman
and sophomores determined whe
ther or not the freshmen could dis
card their caps. With the aboli
tion of that traditional contest.
freshmen were left more or less to !
decide the matter according to j
their own personal preference. The '
Innocents society hopes to estab- j
llfch a new tradition which will
make the wearing and ths dis-1
carding of the caps mean more to ,
the freshman.
that in publishing of some of the
outstanding statements on the
basis of which the derby has been
awarded, that no freshman will
consider himself maligned if he is
given credit for some one else's
crack, or If some one else's crack
is attributed to him. John Henry'
Kerkiades, for example, was cred
ited with making two or three
statements worthy of considera
tion, so it is hardly possible that
any grave ini'.istice can be done
even by attributing the wrong re
mark to him.
A number of the English com
mon law cases studied involving
the state are referred to as Rcgina
vs. blank, namely the Queen versus
the other party in the case. Bui
Comstock wore the derby for a
week after asking how it happened
that this woman Regina got in
volved in so many cases.
X certain amount of dispute
arose over the presentation of the
derby to Joe Alter. Several very
eligible "boners" were disregarded
in giving the hat to Alter because
of his habit of arising in classes
frequently and commencing
speeches on the Nebraska Sweet
heart situation by announcing. "I
am a member of Kosmet Klub."

BUILDING WITH
THE ELECTRIC ARC
JlST a Elias Howe's :ewing r.ichine revolutionized
the construction of textile products, ere welding is
changing methods of construction cf netal products.
Electricity is changing all the old methods, whether in
the fabrication of building;, h manufacturing, or in
tranrportation.
To-day, wetdsd steel is replacinq castings; arc weld
ing is used in the construction cr the automobiles h
which we ride; it joins together those long, sinuous
pipe lines which bring oil, gas, and vater from fields
and reservoirs to city end sea silently, swiftly it Icnics
t'le steel framework or skyscrapers with joints as stror.3
as the metal itself it is used in the construction of thou
sand; of products in industry. It is a repair tool of uni.
versal utility. To-day hes shown only 4 few of its uses,
while to-morrow will reveal thousands of other
applications.
The materially improved G-Earc welders, recently intro
duced, were largely the development of college-trained
men who had supplemented technical theory witS
practical exptriencs in the General Electric Company.
In every department these men are developing the
aDporatus which r.alces General Electric a leader in tre
electrical industry. Othrr young men, rewly grad
uated, obtain in the Test Department experience which
fits them for future responsible positions.
