THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
THREE
Clarifies Action of Recent
Conference Officials'
Retrenchment. .
AMES, la., Dec. 14. Athletic
schedules originally planned by the
Iowa State college athletic depart
ment will be generally reduced in
accordance with the retrenchment
program agreed upon by Big Six
officials In their meeting early last
week, T. N. Metcalf, director of
athletics announced yesterday.
Metcalf said the outcome of the
conference waa a universal argu
ment of schools in the loop to eco
nomize on officials, traveling ex
penses and equipment. None of the
minor sports was struck from the
program, but the schedules were
reduced.
"We'd rather go ahead and give
competition under more difficult
circumstances than to give up a
sport entirely," Director Metcalf
said.
Tho Iowa State college athletic
department Is In a better financial
condition than those in other
schools, Metcalf pointed out, but
the school faced a deficit of J3.000
this year If the original program
of sports were carried out. Foot
ball receipts dropped off 26 per
cent, altho profits dropped off
relatively little. Football receipts
thruout the six schools, of the con
ference suffered a drop from 10 to
30 percent.
The Cyclone basketball sched
ule was left intact, but one official
will take the place of two to effect
a saving of $50 a game. Round
robin tournaments are to be dis
continued in wrestling, tennis and
baseball and the champions will be
declared by the athletic directors
on basis of records in dual meets
which can be scheduled at the op
tion of the schools.
Other Schedules Cut.
The local wrestling schedule Is
almost complete with only minor
modifications. The match with In
diana, however, has been cancelled.
The 175-pound class has been
eliminated and all of the confer
ence teams will travel by auto. As
a further economy the officiating
will be done by coaches or others
without pay.
Tennis and baseball schedules
have not been drawn up as yet.
Metcalf expressed the belief that
Nebraska will not be represented
by a baseball team this year.
In swimming, the conference Is
going ahead with plans for a con
ference meet at Lincoln on March
5. Three dual meets are booked on
the Cyclone tank schedule.
The conference indoor track
meet will be held at Missouri on
March 12, altho indoor dual meets
between the schools were given up,
Metcalf asserted. Drake and Grin
nell will oppose the Cyclone track
men in the only indoor dual meets
on the local schedule.
1 Nebraska will be host at the out
door track meet of the conference
on May 20 to 21. Iowa State will
-participate in the Drake relays and
the state meet, in' addition to dual
meets with Missouri and Drake.
The question of using three offi
cials in football instead of four
was brought up and favorably dis
cussed but no definite action was
taken.

FRATERNITIES TO
LEND SUPPORT IN
DRIVE FOR FUNDS

vate parties during the week at
which time contributions will be
offered Dy members. Several of
them plan to make contributions
late in ths week by individual sub
scriptions. That the sororities will co-operate
in the drive was indicated last
week when Julia Simanek, presi
dent of the Panhellenic council, de
clared that many of the sororities
plan to contribute to the fund. All
members of the council were noti
fied of the plan, but no check has
been made of plans yet.
The Interfraternity council com
mittee which is working on the
drive consists of Bob Lau, chair
man; Jim Crabill, Harold Caster,
and Norman Galleher. Contribu
tions to the fund will be received
by any member of the committee.
"I am very much pleased with
the result of the campaign so far,"
Lau declared yesterday. "However,
I hope that as many organizations
and individuals as possible will
contribute to the fund. It is for a
worthy cause and deserves the
support of everyone."
The money received for the fund
will be turned over to the Lincoln
community chest and spent under
the directions of the committee.
Contributors to the fund may

say, just administrative cussed
ness. I don't know what the dean
was looking for but I hope that he
found it.
The rebellion of the students in
their refusal to return to their
class rooms after the car snooping
episode did not seem to alleviate
matters any. All over the United
States and all over the world,
China for Instance, you hear of
student rebellions.
The reason for these student up
risings is an interesting subject to
speculate about. Does it mean that
students are more radical than
non-collegians? Does it mean that
they have more courage in stand
ing up for their own convictions?
Or does it mean that they feel life
more deeply, that they are more
sensitive to the problems of life ?
Every where we find students as
leaders in new fields of thought
and as staunch supporters of their
principles. Standing up for their
own rights and what they believe
is right. Is this sort of thing to
be encouraged in public institu
tions? Through out the whole
eo icational system we find this
conflict between the expression of
individuality and the conformance
to convention. Teachers Implore
students to be diflerent, to be in
dividuals and when they attempt
to express their Individuality they
say that they are not good mem
bers of society. The question is
how to be an individual and at the
same time conform. When you
have learned how to do that you
are a valuable member of society
and are being true to your best
self.
Japan has not yet accepted the
proposal of an investigation com
mission of neutral powers to look
into the Manchurian affair. Tho
her representatives at Paris agreed
to the league council's proposal,
Tokio, attacks the phraseology of
the petition. Also this has made
new demands for control of south
ern Manchuria. Japan insists anew
that Marshal Chang Hsueh-llang's
civil government and his troops be
withdrawn from Chinchow behind
the great wall.
