To the
New Editor:
It will probably be breaking precedent
should I fail to label the dosing editorial
"Thirty," but perhaps the realization that it
is "thirty" for me as far as the "lias" is con
cerned makes me steer away from such a topic.
Perhaps. I can do more emu! by leaving a few
suggestions for the new editor, which the bene
fit of experience lias insured me to offer.
The publications board meets this after
noon to determine those who will occupy the
Daily Nebraskan posts for the coming semes
ter. When the meet in is adjourned this after
noon, the name of the Nebraskan editor will
be revealed. It is to this yet unknown person
age that 1 address my remarks.
There is really not much 1 can tell you
about the editor's job on this paper. You have
worked with me during the entire semester;
you have tried yourself in the position; you
are aware of the editorial and technical prob
lems. You know that no matter how hard you
try to please, you can't please everybody.
Sometimes, it is necessary to displease some
body. Iiemember, you have been chosen editor
because you have been given credit, for hav
ing superior judgment; you have been chosen
editor because your convictions are considered
logical and mature; you have been chosen ed
itor because you arc considered 1o be a leader
in thought, and a leader of students. Remem
ber then, voice yourself on yoi(r convictions;
but remember also, that your convictions may
often meet with disapproval; your convictions
may often be the opinion of the minority; but
whatever they are, write them sincerely.
Also remember, that the greatest attribute
you can have as editor, the best source of in
formation you possess, comes from the friends
you make en and off the campus. Get to know
as many people as you can; talk to them about
campus problems; occasionally visit the down
town people interested in the paper; talk things
over with members of the faculty; in short, be
an inquisitive reporter yourself, so that you
can always check the accuracy of every story
appearinz in the paper.
You're probably wondering what right 1
have to offer all this advice considering the
number of mistakes I've made, but. it is by
these mistakes that I have learned and if I can
help you avoid similar mistakes I'm glad to
do so.
We have continued several campaigns
started by previous editors and we have tried

SOCIAL WORKERS ALTER
GRADUATE SCHOOL PLANS
our hand at a few of our own this year. It took
almost eight years of constant pounding to get
the Student Union building and other campus
buildings which are so inadequate and out
worn at the present time. It will take time to
bring about the abolition of some of the worth
less department;;! clubs and other campus or
ganizations, and it will likewise be a tedious
job to bring about the enlargement of the
scholarship offerings at Nebraska. You might
work on the latter problem by suggesting that
a few of the valueless organisations include a
scholarship program in their schedule and thus
justify their existence.
The unicameral will be in session next year
and perhaps you may be a strong influence in
showing the new legislators the pressing need
for a building program, in which a new library
is included as the first item, and the need for
an enlarged appropriation for professorial sal
aries, so that Nebraska may keep its top-rate
professors and draw additional outstanding
men to its faculty. An additional suggestion
upon which you might work is the deplorable
conditions which exist in many of the boarding
houses on the campus. Kueourageinent of stu
dent forums and the bringing of outstanding
speakers to the campus might be another sug
gestion to follow.
There are so many little things that need
attention on this campus. The physical appear
ance of the campus itself would be an excellent
way to begin taking care of things. Put out a
rood, clean, interesting, and forceful newspa
per. Please forgive the lengthy lecture on liow
to put out a paper. Believe me, it is not because
I don't believe you don't know everything I
mentioned that 1 have rambled on thusly. It is
because the way I mapped out for you is the
way I would have liked to edit a paper and
didn't.
Kinallv, alwavg remember, whatever han- h" T'", """r"h'i' ' iainii-d m

willing to help you in solving any problem.
You have a wide responsibility to many; the
alumni, the townspeople, the faculty; parents
of students; but your biggest responsibility is
still to the student body. It is their paper; it
should instruct, inform, entertain, and advise
them.
And as for yourself, take it from me, you
will have many a happy hour laughing and
getting angry over the many errors that are
made. But from them you will have the hap
piest and most informative year of your col
legiate life.
Put out a paper ci which you can be proud
and I'll be rooting for you.

of the changes in the present
social and economic order.

ATHLETIC TAX
(Continued From Page 1.)
which controls both schools,
brought the suit.
Football Not Essential.
They contended they were per
forming an essential government
function in putting on the football
games, and that a federal tax was
an unconstitutional burden. The
government, however, in the form
of the court decision yesterday, in
which eight Judges delivered a six
to two ruling declared that foot
ball was not an essential part of
an educational program and was a
"commercialized activity."
Thirteen states and four schools
filed briefs with the court against
the government s position.
In the admlsslon-tax decision,
Justice Roberts held that Immunity
from federal taxation "does not
extend to business enterprises con
ducted by the states for gain."
Exhibition Not Exempt.
"However essential a system of
public education to the existence
of the state," Justice Roberts said,
"the conduct of exhibitions for ad
mission paid by the public is not
such a function of state govern
ment as to be free from the bur
den of a non-dlscrimlnatory tax
laid on all admissions to public
exhibitions for which an admission
is charged."
In the minority report Justices
Butler and McReynolds contended
that the tax "seems plainly within
the rule of state immunity from
federal taxation as hitherto under
stood and applied."
Have you ever dined on baked
grasshoppers? Or whole roasted
monkey? Professor Quiz hus.
The man who knows all the
answers to the endless questions
put to courageous contenders on
his program over the CBS net
works every Saturday evening
has tasted these strange delica
cies during his travels around
the world and still likes to remi
nisce about them while his wife
insists on serving him a nice
healthy American salad.
Only once was I confronted in
with a dish that proved awe
some," the prof relates. "That
wasn't in any remote country
such as Africa cr India which
I visited but In conservative
England."
The prof goes on to relate of
a dinner which he attended given
by the Explorer's club in London.
This club delichts in serving one
course that will stimulate, if not
shock, the jaded appetites of
guests. The menu that time in
cluded a whole roast monkey,
complete, with life-like eyes. The
prof, says he had eaten monkey
steak before, but never had the
animal appeared In such a rr
rJlstic state. (Excuse me, just
a minute, I'll be right back.
Telling of his experience in
London, the prof says that
when the when the winter was
coldest in London, pedestrians
would but hot roasted potatoes,
stick them in their pockets, and
so, keep their hands warm

Professor Reck presented three
challenges to the young journal
ists. The first of these was to
"dare to be different." Warning
that most practicing journali.st.i
are in a rut. writing day after day
in the same old way, Reck urged
that Initiative, ambition and lead
ership be fostered.
Accuracy, ever the watch-word
fif the journalist, has been neg
lected, Reck said. Mistakes in
copy reading, proof-reading, and
in news collection are due only to
slovenly work; journalists should
again look to their old watch-word,
accuracy.
"No great work was ever ac
complished without enthusiasm,"
was the theme of Reek's third
challenge. Real zest for his work,
coupled with accuracy and a will
to be different - these the aspirins
journalist should work for.
Trofrssor Walker, director of
the school of journalism, outlined
the growth of the school of jour
nalism from its Infancy In 1923 to

tention Is concentrsttd on Just one
thing-the experimenter's sugges
tions. In the natural stste, while
you msy be concentrsting only on
the lecture In the clsssroom,
nevertheless your are aware of the
people around you, artlvltles out
side of the room, and, In short,
everything that Is around you.
Under hypnosis, however, your st
tentlon Is concentrated on Just one
thing, and you sre entirely obvious
to everything else.
Contrary to common belief, a
person who la In a hypnotic state
thinks and acts Just like any nor
mal person. Their ryes are open,
and they are In full control of
their faculties.
"I challenge anyone," said Dr.
Walton, "to pick out the hypnot
ised person out of a group of three
or four people. They act and look
Just like the rest."
Surgical Application.
Hypnosis ras but few practical
uses, according to Dr. Walton. It
has been used to sora extent ln
surgical optrations, both of ma
Jor and minor character, and. with
a fair amount of success. A man

example, If the experimenter
should suggest that the patient do
something that was against his or

come out of the coma right away.

No Training Required.
No particular training is re-
quired to master the art of hypno
prise, for the ;.lils had been sing

"that you could go out arn put
someone to sleep right now. It
takes a great deal of ttiaetlee to
be able to do the ntuiit, but al
most anyone can do It If they have
the proper background of knowl

him."
It takes varying lengths of time
for the experimenter to produce
the hypnotic state. On one person
It may be hue a few minutes, while
on others It may take hours. Any
one, however, can be hypnotized if
th experimenter has the time at
his disposal to flo it. Sometimes

him some lessons on how to relax,
but once he learn to relax, he Is
an easy subject to hypnotize.

"After you have hypnotized a
person a few times," he said, "and
have gained their confidence, It Is
possible to put tliern Into their
hypnotic state merely by talking
to them over the telephone. Also
some times you can Just tell them
to go Into the coma, leave the
room, and com back to find them
completely hypnotized. It Is tru'y
a wonderful thing!"

push the Interviewer out of the
