Us of today's generation, we daring and wicked moderns, are Inclined to relegate the youth of generations past to the ash-heap of long-forgotten unamount ables. Our parents, for instance dads, to be specific are so settled and church-going, and solid citiren-y that their lives must be frightfully dull. What ever did they do for fun when they were younger? But we smug hrll-raispis mipht us well realize lhat we're staid as a Victorian corset in comparison to the "pood old days'' of any previ ous era. It may be just as well that we don't know exactly what cav oops our fathers were, for if we did. we would die of envy! We of the stuffy pusses don't know what real town-painting is. Research doesn't have to dig very far back in history to dis cover some pood healthy nose thumbing. At the time of the strictest ban on smoking anywhere on the campus, it was an even more, ironclad law in the depart ment of architecture that all ar chitects smoke. You couldn't hope to be a successful architect if you I didn't indulge: if you weren't al ready a prize tobacconist's cus tomer, you learned to be in a hurry. Literal Minded Speechers. The department of spench was not without its upstarts. One of the annual classics of vigorous de- j livery is "Spaitacus Speech to the Gladiators." The tradition was for the inspired declamcr of the "If ye are men, follow me!" passage to lead the shouting throng out of the classroom to the Moon. Now they lock the doors. Fraternity and sorority hell wceks constitute much best un told history. In Robber's cave south of town, there even yet lingers, along with the aroma of horscthieves and the "geological formations," the blood, bones and epidermis of countless initi ates. Some of the agonircd yipes are echoing yet, in secluded cranics of caverns. Now that the likkcr Is better, drunkenness is not so colorful as once. From college generation to generation In one sorority is bull sessioned the story of a now big-time authoress whose escopades in school are fresh written history. This lover of the full life sailed majestically out of the ladies' lounge, at a formal one very hoity toity oc casion with her Mrs. Gawd dress tucked into her panties to stern. A flustered friend tipped her off as to the disarray of her attire. With a sweeping gesture the pen-minded gal corrected the state of affairs, turned to btr escort with a gracious smile, and continued her promenade. Woe on the Hoof.

Dad? This issue of the Daily is put out in co-operation with the Innocents society to boom the attendance at Dad's Day next Saturday. It will be mailed to parents and it is hoped that both fathers and mothers will find it possible to fit a visit to the campus into r;ir week end plans. Dad's Day is a nice frrJture to the man who pays for the show. It creates a special occasion for Dad, with mother, of course, to come down and see what we are do ing. The first necessary reminder in regard to this inspec tion cf what we are doing- down at college' is that parents will definitely not see what we are doing really.' Dad's Day provide" the opportunity of seeing for the first time, or renewing memories of, the colorful side of college going a rally Friday night, a big football game into which Nebraska sends one of its best teams in years, and a social fanfare in the way of a Dad's Day ball in the coliseum. Add to this the big get-acquainted luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce building and the parent dinners at fraternities and sororities and you have an imposing menu of activities for the visitors. But all this color shows but the incidentals. Five days a week are supposedly devoted to classes and study. The color pertains only to week-end activity. But it's the color that is interesting. It's the color that parents remember or war.t to see. Dad s Day is designed as entertainment and not as an exhibit of value.
