In New Song, New
Yells Lies the Answer.
nUniMinintiiiLT ns the outcome of the Min-
jjf" " n ( t
Tipsota enme was to Nebraska tans, it was a
revelation in the matter of spirit, enthusiasm,
ami "rah-rah-iness." More so to the Cornh'us
kers than to any other visiting fans, for it was
so in contrast to the antipathy which exists in
our stadium during a football game.
Minnesota has no organized student cheer
in" section. There is no definite spot set aside
ns focal point for yells. Cheerleaders do not
congregate at one side of the stadium. They
spread themselves all over the place. And
when thev prance about and beg for support
in helping the learn out with a few cheers they
aren't greeted with a smirk and a few half
hearted "vea bo's." All the crowd in the
stands .-joins in to create a roar that is heard
in downtown Minneapolis, several miles away.
While the Nebraska fan sits, the Minne
sota fan rises full of enthusiasm and anxious
to veil. The answer may be found in the fact
that the Gophers have something to yell, while
the Cornhuskers stick to the routine stuff
popular 20 vears atro. Minnesota fans sing
"Minnesota. 'Hats Off To Thee," in a body
and how well that sounds when 53,000 voices
,.hime in while perhaps one-third of the Ne
braskans know "The Cornhusker." That may
be a hich estimate. .
Nebraska football is taken as seriously
as Minnesota football there is no doubt ol
that. The Cornhusker fan is just as fine a fol
lower, as loyal a supporter, as can be. But
when it comes to translating: that enthusiasm
to vocal support he falls flat.
The custodians of Nebraska spirit and en
thusiasm the Innocents society along with the
Tassels and Corn Cobs should take a hand. A
Nebraska fieht, sons: must be procured, some
thing that will ring out, send tingles up and
down the listeners' spines. New yells are 111
order. Perhaps some catchy act can be worked
up bv the veil kings. Something must be done
to send Nebraska spirit soaring to new levels.
A new sonsr js heinir arranged for the
band. The tune is good, and the words sound
well, but when it was tried last year, it was
found wanting. It failed to gain the support
needed on the campus. Students did not walk
about humming the tune, or murmuring the
words. There was nothing gripping about it.
It will be tried again later in the fall. This
time it nwiv swing the public's approval. Jf
it does, well and good ; if not. the search for a
new song must be carried on until one is found
that will" become a part of Nebraska, and will
be associated with the Cornhuskers all over
the land.

TO THE EDITOR:
Forum and
Agin 'Em.
University of Nebraska students were
highly honored recently when the assistant
attorney general of the United States appeared
before a convocation to speak of one of Ne
braska's great and distinguished citizens. They
appreciated the efforts of university officials
in bringing to this campus for the first eonvo
eation an outstanding personality who could
speak to them on a subject which has, for
manv students, a personal significance.
It is only natural and undoubtedly desir
able that when such a speaker is scheduled to
appear on a university platform, a large per
centage of the student population would like
to take advantage of the opportunity to hear
him speak. Classes, however, were not dis
missed tor last Tuesday's meeting. There hence
arose a problem for those students having 11
o'clock classes. Should they cut their classes,
perhaps missing out on important material and
receiving a lower mark as a result, and attend
the convocation which they would enjoy and
which they feel would benefit them? If they
did this they would also be showing their loy
alty to the school and to those who expend
their efforts to make such a convocation pos
sible. On the other hand, would it be advis
able to give up the possibility of hearing the
convocation speakers and miss one of the few
chances that students have during the year of
listening to an outstanding individual in order
to attend a class that meets one or more times
a week thruout a semester?
The question would not be serious if it
were one that concerned only a single convo
cation. But if this year's plan is the same as
that of previous years, many of the convoca
tions will be scheduled at the same time, 11
o'clock on Tuesday or Thursday mornings. If
administrative officials feel it impossible to
dismiss classes at the hour of the convocation,
I feel, and I am sure many students will agree
with me. that the hour should be changed from
time to time. In this way those who were pre
vented from attending a convocation because
of a conflicting class might be enabled to at
tend one at another hour. This would certain
lv be more fair to all the students.
The only idea! solution to the problem, of
course, would be to order all classes dismissed
during the hour of the convocation; for it
would be impossible to find an hour when a
few classes did not conflict. I feel that if the
convocations are worthwhile at all. they are
worthv of the attention of at least ihe major
ity of students. If they are not worthwhile
and of general interest, 1 can see no reason for
scheduling them. I ask, then, that students be
considered when the next convocation is
planned. It is for the student body that they
are initiated and it should be the privilege of
each and every student to attend without fear
of missing a regularlv scheduled lecture.

OF YOUTHS. SAYS BUBB
National Young GOP Officer
Gives Lincoln Address
Tuesday Night.
Henry Bubb. Toprka, vice-chairman
of the National Young Repub
lican Federation, charged Jumes
Farley with trying to buy the vote
of the youth through the use of
the NYA and other such agencies
in a speech before the campus re
publican organization at the Lin
coln hotel Tuesday evening.
Bubb spoke in the place of .1.
Kenneth Bradley, national presi
dent of the Young Republicans,
who was called unexpectedly to
New York.
The Topekan said that what
the young person is faced with to
day is whether or not he will al
low the government to go into an
"ism".
Hidden Taxes Raise Prices.
"While the democrats are say
ing that we don't have to pay it
back," Bubb continued, "and that
the income tax will take care of
the debt, hidden taxes have in
creased the price of the necessi
ties of life from sixty to sixty-five
percent over their former price.
The amount of income tax will not
be a dribble in the bucket."
Bubb urged all young people to
take notice of the surrounding
countries which were teemins
with internal strife and reminded
iho vnnth that it whs their duty
to protect our present form of
government.
The Young Republicans will
give a dance this evening at the
Hotel Cornhusker with Eddie
Jungbluth's orchestra. Admission
twenty-five cents.
War clouds continue to gather over Eu
rope to the thundering accompaniment of the
predominant note of the Spanish civil war
the struggle of fascism against socialism.
The loudest echoes are heard in France,
where another tragedy similar to Spain's may
soon occur, lvioting and fighting in the"pow
der keg" area of Alsace-Lorraine is stimulat
ing unrest in both France and Germany. Large
communist demonstrations under nazi Hitler's
ose in the face of his current antibolshevist
campaign may be seized by the German ruler
as a pretext for further demonstrations in this
region.
Mussolini, meanwhile, has indicated fear
of a general Kuropeau war by increasing his
armament program. His plans include strength
ening land. air. and sea forces, establishing
more air bases, increasing munitions output by
.i0 percent, and building more warships.
The Spanish non-intervention pact, ay reed
upon hv 27 nations, seems about to go the way
ward wav of all pads, treaties, and agree
ments. Kussias protest that the fascist na
tions. Germany. Italy, and Portugal, are aiding
Spain's rebels to overthrow the loyalist gov.
erninenl. received no conclusive action by the
non-intervention committer.
Germany, already at swords points with
Kussia. immediately announced that she Mould
feel free lo act should Kussia denounce the
agreement.
China, seething internally as always, re
senls .la pan's "aid" in establishing economic
hot ,lne to the looseness of her govern
ment and lack of unity among her provinces j
can do nol hmg about it.
At the same lime there is considerable
tenseness between .lapau and Kussia. Kussia
realizes that the .laps might ucll be casting
covetous eves toward her Siberian resources.
.Japan, on 'the other hand, is distinctly afraid
of Kussian communism in her newly acquired
Manchurian province.
The situation in Europe has reached
such a staje that war will not be denied.
Governments and populace alike are de
manding it. That immediately concerns
us, the citizens of the United States. It
is imperative that we take a def inite stand
of neutrality and retain it in the face of
insults and economic hardships that are
sure to come our way.

9 That the iudiciarv committee
take immediate action on all pies
ent office holders who have been
delinquent in their duties and
recommend their impeachment to
the Student Council.
3. We find that the method to
be employed in the next election
of requiring each voter's picture
on his identification caid meets
with our unanimous approval in
curbing the practice of multiple
voting.
Members Give Views.
Discussing the proposal for
judiciary review of faction nomi
nations, Mary Yoder declared that
"now we have set rules governing
elections, and this proposal would
substitute something so intangible,
that it would be almost impossible
to judge. We have no definite basis
upon which to decide the desira
bility of the candidates."
Bill Clayton outlined his objec
tions to the new plan in that it
places the weight of too much re
sponsibility on a few people. "In
a body of "five members, there are
bound' to be some close decisions,"
Clayton declared, "and the deci
sion which one man may be forced
to make is too heavy." He also
advised the council that such a
proposal requires definite stand
ards such as the time the candi
date can devote to the work, and
his sincciity in wanting the posi
tion. Report Kansas Migration Plans.
Betty Van Home, chairman of
the migrations committee, report
ed the completion of all details for
students accompanying the foot
hall team to Lawrence. Kas., for
the annual game with Kansas uni
versity. Miss Van Home reported
that chaperons for the trip had
been arranged, and that all rail
road accommodations had been
provided. She advised the council
to advertise the migration as much
as possible in order to encourage
a large attendance at the game.
Transportation to and from the
game on a special train for Ne
braska university stydents will
cost $4.
According to a resolution passed
by the council all graduate stu
dents will be allowed to vote in
the election without their identify
ing photographs which will not be
printed in time.

nV STEEVES
To begin in traditional man
ner, we thought of dubbing this
column eczema, because It was
written in a rash moment, or
stub because it was so pointless,
or many other things Just be
cause. As a final decision the
pillar will go by the monicker
above, pronounced like It sounds
and meaning just that. The con
tents will be campus hash and
we assume no responsibility for
lost articles, Including the train
of thought.
This feature may, by the grace
of the managing editors, appear
as a daily feature. It will be of
moderate lengh and is the ideal
thing in which to wrap garments
or garbage.
Migrating-some 4,000 in number
to the chilled lands of Minnesota
last week, Huskers learned many,
many things concerning variety in
school setup. Of course the Nordics
have 14,000 students on the books,
yet their plan of education should
resemble ours in some phase or
other. Some of the tid bit dearest
to us were these:
Minnesota has not one campus
cop, but a fleet of some fifty. The
gentlemen in blue serge do not
chat wilh the students; instead
they curse them with tlje vocabu
lary of a golf pro. The need of
these what-havc-you's is not to
quell the rowdy-downess of the
Gophers, but for safety's sake.
Deaths in traffic are not unfami
liar on University boulevard, thus
the Northerners carry on a chronic
safety campaign.
Should you amble up. to a Min
nesotan and ask him to direct you
tn a rrsripctive firepn mansion.
they would probably face you with
mouth ajar. Yours truly had the
experience of asking for various
frarornirv flnrt anroritv domiciles.
and would still to this day be
searcmng naa 1 nor. mei some
Husker comrades who already
treasured the information I peeked.
Social groups in the Ski-U-Mah
school dominate no more man
warts on elephants, and those that
do are not located on this cum
pus. Rushing Is done in versa-visa
style. The applicant for a group
spends all his time rushing the
group with which he wants to
hook up. Should he fail to make
the grade, he must, if persist
ent enough, continued rushing
the boys for another year. No
students are pledged until sec
ond semester.
Football players are taboo in fra
ternities. Those affiliated got in
while still in their unfamous state
and blossomed out into gridhood,
like the ugly duckling, after ex
pulsion was too late. The reason
for this is the Greek groups hous
ing the fair sex. When asked if she
knew a certain player, one fair gal
replied agasp: "Oh, we never go
with football players; only nice
boys."
Minnesota has the long fought
for union building and they pro
mote dances aplenty. Good orches
tras, good crowds good fun.
However, we'll still take Husker
land. No one at Minneapolis knows
anyone else and their spirit runs
low. Their staunchest cheering fans
at games are not the collegiate dis
guised as raccoons, but the alum
na ipd nrofessional men of the state
with pannehes of long standing of
and grey hair aplenty. There's
something about the elbow rubbing
at Nebraska that we like.
Still on the Minnesota angle,
Bob Funk, business manager of
this sheet, adopted a family of
brainchildren from the Minneso
ta Daily and things have been
popping in the Rag office like a
pan full of that kind of corn ever
since. It seems that the money
handler of their periodical has a
private office. So Funk has
spent all his time porting books,
files and shoving desks into an
other of the musty rooms in U
hall in order to keep up with the
Minnesota Jonses. Now at any
time our little Bob can be found,
not in ritz, but In seclusion in the
dark basement of the school's
pioneer building.
TORCH DISPLAY
TO DISTINGUISH
HOOSIER RALLY
(Continued from Page 1.)
Douglas will address the throng.
"It is extremely important that
the students turn out for this
rally," insists Innocent Ted Brad
ley, in chanrge of affairs. "There
can be not let down or over con
fidence. Indiana is the dark horse
of the Big "10" and has one of
the strongest teams in the coun
try." "Teams coached by McMillan
have always had the reputation of
being above average," continued
Bradley. "When "Bo" coached in
the Big Six his teams were al
ways a threat to Husker supre
macy in the loop."
'At Indiana," concluded the In
nocent, "he has built one of his
greatest teams. We must Talk
Indiana Think Indiana and
Beat Indiana!"
Bradley Asks Support.
Bradley issued a plea for the
rally to be a smashing success so
as to make an indelible impres
sion on the Hoosiers who are ;ip
pearing here for the first time in
many years.
Corn Cob President Webb Mills
asks that all Cob pledges meet
in the office of the Daily Ne
Nebraskan in the basement of
University Hall at 3 o'clock on
Thursday' to make torches for the
parade, reach pledge should bring
3 or 4 large cans and any old
broom handles or other material
about four feet long for use in
making torches.
The committee In charge , of
affairs has arranged for sound
equipment to facilitate in an
nouncements at the rally.
Sororities and fraternities are
asked by the rally heads to ar
range hour dances and other ac
tivities so as not to interfere with
attendance at the pep meeting.
Over the Husker dressing loom
in the stadium, Coach Bible has
placed the sign "Look ahead
Indiana next." Lets all look
ahead anil Beat Indiana.
