For Sunday.
OLLKGFS and universities of the country have
presented an interesting picture in the flux
ci' the p:ist few years, and student editors thru
out the country have not hesitated to label changes
that have taken place as evidence of a somewhat re
markable shift of attitudes within that vague thing
"the student mind." A serious outlook, and a grow
ing ability to penetrate to "realities" are cited to
explain such things as more student Interest in
world affairs and governmental policies.
The evidences of the changed attitude, however,
are not cenfined to students themselves. While col
lege editors turn their attention to the gravity of
economic, and political theory and they have been
doing that a great deal mors in the last two years
than ever before there are also educators who hail
the coming of a new age of promise to the campi of
America. It is said, for example, that social prob
lems clubs and similar organizations have grown
in importance in the scheme of undergraduate life.
The efforts to set up such organizations has cer
tainly been lather intensified, and both students and
faculty members have given serious attention to
" the various vocational enterprises that are so freely
classified as signs of a change in the American col
legiate scene.
It is not to be denied that to the individuals
concerned the aims actually represent the highest
kind of objectives. The fallacy does not lie there,
- but rather in pointing to the increased interest of
. students in government as an indication of educa

Contemporary Comment
A Trend
Explained.
Dr. Ralph C. Hutchison, presi
dent of Washington and Jefferson
college, told the annual convention
of the New Jersey Teachers asso
ciation that college education,
which has been so long a "racket"
has now reached the end of its
cycle and that, in the future, qual
ity in graduates will be demanded.
To the student now in a univer
sity who will not be graduated for
one. two, or three years. Dr.
Hutchison's words warrant consid
erable thought. In plain English
he told the teachers that in the
future the mere fact that a person
holds a college diploma will not be
sufficient to get him a job or a
position. He must have more and
special qualifications.
That might be interpreted to
mean that the student now in col
lege must maintain an average bet
ter than the majority of his class
if he expects to get any sort of a
position, or make any sort of a
mark in this world. For, says Dr.
Hutchison, there are enough just
college graduates.
Another change that will come
will be the emphasis on personal
integrity. Pointing toward student
operated publications, dances and
the like. Dr. Hntcnison aeciarea
many cf them were run purely for
the "spoils." Such goings-on win
soon be of the past, he declared.

I KT us examine, for a moment, the activity within
the student bodies that is said to be represent
ative of a new era of achievement. Thnt activity
takes u number of forms some of which Include
departmental clubs, discussion groups, committees,
professional fraternities, and so on but thru it all
there runs a thread of interest in affairs beyond the
confines of a local campus. In most cases this in
terest seems to center about government, partic
ularly as governmental policies may influence the
professions or vocations, either directly or other
wise. Interest in government itself seems to be sub
ordinated, in these undergraduate groups, to Inter
est in the way government will effect the affairs of
the individual professions and vocations. The story
of the rise of that Interest is both complex and in
teresting, but the point hero is that students, in re
vealing such an interest, also reveal that they are
concerned chiefly with nothing moro profound than
their own material betterment. And while that is
not remarkable, perhaps shows that student inter

economic stress of a social period.
In reality then, the "student mind" hailed as

Is probably no nearer to actual maturity than it
ever was. What is seen as an improvement in think

lier age toward specialized vocational interests. And
ultimately that may very well prove equally inter

KIEBRASKA'S football team doesn't need to feel
ashamed of Its performance in Pittsburgh Sat
urday afternoon. The Cornhusker glory, while
somewhat dimmed by the defeat at the claws of
the Panther, a worthy opponent for any football
team, still shines brightly enough to credit upon the
school and its team.
The players who took part in the struggle in
Fanther Hollow Saturday afternoon played a won
derful game. Not once did they quit. They were
fighting against tremendous disadvantages, some of
which were a heavier team, their own desires to
remain unbeaten, Pitt's desire to remove a team
from that class, the legend of Panther Hollow, but
they still put up a good battle.
There can be little doubt but that Pittsburgh
deserved to win. They exhibited a brand of foot
ball superior to that displayed by the Huskers. But
a defeat at the hands of Pittsburgh should be
neither shameful nor discouraging for a great Ne
braska team played a great game. Give them a
band, you campus fans!

Decline of
The "Rah-Rah."
"The "rah-rah" spirit, usually
characteristic of secondary schools
but common on the campuses of
the nation's greatest institutions of
higher learning a few years ago,
has returned where it belongs to
the high schools, according to J. G.
Quick, for eighteen years registrar
at the University of Pittsburgh.
Mr. Quick declares that while
the depression has done much to
make all individuals serious, he be
lieves that one of the main causes
is the changed attitude of parents
"When a father considers the out
lay of some S300 now he expects
the son and daughter on whom it
is expended to make good," de
clares the Pitt registrar.
For that matter, mother and dad
always have expected son or
daughter to "come through" in col
lege. It is probable that the blame
for the irresponsible jazz ag
should rest squarely on the younger
generation, and at the same time
the reason for the more serious
attitude at the present time must
be nothing other than the awakened
responsibilities in the students
themselves.

F. Dwight Klrsch, chairman of

ing; in black and white intimate
details of nature, not ordinarily
noticed as being unusual. In the

his work in photography, will show
several of his prints: the tassels on

tablish more binding lar eastern
relations."
Prof. Hill also stated that the
pact would bring about a better
international understanding, but
would carry no far-reaching re
sults. President Roosevelt's selection
of William C. Bullitt, member of
the state department and regarded
as an authority on the Russian
question, aroused considerable
comment among the university
faculty. Both Hill and Senning de
clared the president's appointment
as a good one, and very satisfac
tory. Stoke It Was Needed.
"On the whole the pact creates
the opportunity to re-establish re
lations that should have been re
established long since," declared
Dr. Harold Stoke, Political Science
instructor. "I do not feel that the
move will create any immediate in
crease in trade, because the pure
recognition of Russia is not signifi
cant enough to establish confidence
of American business men in P.us
sian goods." Dr. Stoke declared
however that the move will not
tend to clarify the situation as far
as international relations are con
cerned, serving, rather, to increase
the complications.
Arndt May Be Disappointing.
From an economists point of
view the move is not particularly
significant, according to the opin
ion expressed by Karl M. rndt,
member of the department ofeco
nomlcs. "Recognition of Russia
will bring about increased trade
relations only if we are willing to
buy heavily from them or make
large loans on generous terms."
he said. Arndt added that there
seems to be strong opposition to
both heavy imports or unlimited
credit, and expected trade benefits
may prove disappointing.
Prof. J. E. tellers, member of
the department of History declared
that Russian recognition would
remove many of the differences
between the United States and
Russia. He also felt that the
move would make an indelible im
pression upon the world's diplo
matic channels.
Fling Germany Isolated,
"While I was opposed to the rec
ognition of Russia until Germany
withdrew from the league, at
that time I felt that Germany
was attempting to build up arma
ments for another World war. The
recognition of Russia by the
United States isolates Germany,"
declared Dr. F. M. Fling, member
of the history department, and
well known authority on European
History.
Professor Fling felt, however,
that the appointment of William
Bullitt as ambassador to Russia
was astonishing, feeling that he
had no particular qualifications
which fitted him for the important
position.
Further Approval.
Dr. J. M. Reinhardt, member of
the department of sociology, and
Dr. Nel3 A. Bengston, chairman of
the Geography department, both
declared that they felt the move a
beneficial one. Dr. Reinhardt de
clared that recognition of Russia
would, in a measure, prevent the
spread of communism in the
United States.
Dr. Bengston felt that the selec
tion of Bullitt was a good one. He
also declared that the move should
improve international relations.

"What was It like?" I asked

"My .students determined their
rules 'themselves," said Aristotle,
"and they elected, every ten days,
one of their number to supervise
the school."
"Well," I said, "then student
government is nothing new."
Aristotle went on: "I spoke to
them of many things. Mathemat
ics, and philosophy, biology, and
the natural sciences. We discussed
these things at our meals and as
we walked near the athletic field."
"Athletics in your school?" I
aslted in surprise."
"Assuredly," he repueci. -as
habit should be cultivated before
reason, so the body should come
before the mind. Early in their
lives all bovs should bo handed
over to the trainer to attain proper
habit of body. The wrestling mas

Rut athletics may ne overdone,
I said.
"Yes," Aristotle agreed. "But I
am speaking of athletic training
for every student, and not ror tne

told is the practice today."
You know, then, of tne tooiDaii

Yes," he said. "I have heard
how these new athletic enthusi
asms have made the university
coaches better known than chan
cellors. I have heard how propor
tionately more money is spent on
athletics than on any legitimate
university activity. I have heard
how no university in the country
has the courage to place athletics
where they belong."
"For a ghost," I told horn, "you

these, things are true."
"But nevertheless," he said, "ath

Students and teachers, working
together, produce a large part of
their living, the only cash expense
being $40 per quarter tuition. With
a number of the students largely
self-educated, there are no formal
entrance requirements, and since
its classes are solely of a prac-
icable nature, no degrees are
granted.
The courrri are divided into
curricula for two years work, the
first year course being intended to
familiarize the student with the
world of labor thought and the
second to provide for training for
some particular field of labor
eadership. Typical courses include
labor orientation, historical ma
terialism, proletarian literature,
marxism, imperialism, farm prob-

cused from military work are
given an affirmation form which
they are required to sign before
their case will be given final con
sideration, it was explained. This
form reads as follows:
"I wish to state and affirm
herein that I conscientiously ob
ject to the principles of military
science instruction and beg to be
excused from participation in the
same;
"I fully understand that if my
request is granted a notation 'ex

objections' will be placed on my
permanent record on tile with the
registrar; and
"I further understand that I am
required to acquire credit in physi
cal education in lieu of the mili
tary science requirement."
Plan Works Well.
As it now operates, believes
Chancellor Burnett, the plan works
very well. It has served, in his be
lief, to separate the real conscien
tious objectors from those who are
inclined to rebel agunst any sort
ot requirements and more especial
ly those who seek to get out of
military instruction because of the
compulsory feature.
"Of those asking to be excused
irom military training, 1 am in
formed that by far the larger num
ber of those who at first believe
they are conscientious objectors
find after an explanation of the
purposes of military instruction
that they are not conscientious ob
jectors, but are in fact seeking to
avoid a task that has been set for
them," he said.
R. O. T. C. Since 1917.
Military training has been offer
ed at the University of Nebraska
since its early days, the federal
grants specifically mentioning that
type of training. Since 1817 the
work has been carried on as a part
of the Reserve Officers Training
Corps work. The chancellor ex
plained that while the federal rules
have been modified to some extent
that it is still the opinion of the
majority of the board of regents
mat Bucn training should be re
quired at the University of Nebras
ka, i ne jocai k. o. t. C. unit now
operates under the National De
fense act which establishes a small
standing army and a trained re
serve rather than a large expens
ive standing army.
Eastern Schools Strict.
The Nebraska liberal attitude
was contrasted by the chancellor
with that at one large eastern
school which requires a signature
to the following statement:
"I am making this application
because I object to military train
ing on grounds of religion and con
science; in other words I am a con
scientious objector and I have such
deep convictions on this matter
that I use that term to mean that
I will refuse to enter military ser
vice in case the United States en
gages in offensive war against an
other nation, and that I shall ac
cept auch penalty as the United
State government may impose for
such refusal. If the United States
should be attacked by a foreign na
tion and should engage la defens
ive war. I understand that since I
am a conseien'ioua objector. I shall
refuse to assist in the defense of
the United State at that time, and
that I shall accept auch penalties
as the government may impose fer
my refusal."

One other fatal defect that u.
nouncement card possesses. Across
the bottom it reads "Everyojj is
urged to attend.' Now the moitfu.
tile thing on earth is to "ur"
anybody to do anything. pwp,
don't like to be urged to do things
they want to do what they please!
The way to success: Make the stu
dents "want" to go to eonvoct
tions. Then no urging will be nef.
essary. And the way to do this it
to have good programs and to be
sure that every student knows how
good the program will be, and to
be sure that every student is in
vited to attend.
Far better than to say "Every
one is urged to attend" would be to
say "You are invited to attend," or
"We hope you'll enjoy the pro
gram." or "We prepared the pro
gram; you are the judge," or "If
you like the program, tell us," or
just to say "We welcome even
one." WELCOME FARM OPS.
Monday Ag campus will be in
vaded by some 75 or more young
men who have got the corn shuck
ing done back home and are going
to school for a few months befon
time to start farming in the sprini.
Those young men will taketii
courses initiated four or five vean
ago as the Farm Operators Short
Course.
From most every point of view
that one might consider, tnese win
ter courses have real merit. The?
are a good thing for the coUege. In
the first place, it is a high class of
fellows who take the course. Many
perhaps even most of them, are
high school graduates, who, after
graduating, went to farming in
stead of to college.
They are an active gang on the
campus, take part in Coll-Agn
Fun. turn out for all the mixers,
church parties, and have a num
ber of social activities of their
own. They keep part of the faculty
busy instructing them and assist
ing with their outside activities:
and in these times of unemploy
ment, that in itself is a virtue.
They make teaching and assisting
jobs" for some of the upperclass
men in college, and that, too, helps.
In two 'ways the courses are
worthwhile for the boys: The;
