who docs the best job he knows how 1o do

Minnesota is supposed 1o possess another
steamroller eleven fairly bubbling over with
power. It is believed to have a formidable
aerial attack that his not been shown yet. The
Gophers have speed, but not the speed of old.
They have weiuhl. reserves, versatility and
finesse. In oilier words, Minnesota has ils ty p

We cannot escape the thought that Satur

To the Editor:
I wrts pleased Ht (he recent de
cision of the university board in
regard to the use of student activ
ity tickets. Their ruling is fair
and was called for. Selleck can
tell you that dramatic appeals
were made by forgotten men lust
year when tickets run out before
all the students could satisfy them
selves, their great aunts, and pre
historic uncles. The only person
who will he able to use these
activity tickets will he the actual
purchasers, towit, the students.
That is the purpose of the special
rate, a benefit to the student in
regard to admission to athletic
events; not as a menus of allowing
individuals who dislike football to
hook some one who does at his
expense resulting in a few dollars
profit to the owner.
Prior to this time, it has been
a common practice for a student
to purchase an activity ticket, go
to one or two games, and then
allow a friend, relative, or a
stranger to attend a like number
while the student sat In the
hleaehers with the rest of thp
kids. Hence the student's cost was
lessened by his selling the first
three tickets before one of his
close relatives forgot to return the
book. The student was satisfied,
he had seen two games from the
knothole and so was tired of foot
hall. The number of persons at
tending even the major games
was correspondingly laised: peo
ple began sitting on each other's
laps when the aisles were full.
Thp board does realize that the
majority of students in the uni
versity are not of the "velvet"
variety. If you are broke, that
makes two of us. Because of this
known fact, the board charges six
dollars for a book which would
cost fifteen if the tickets were
purchased separated. If they
thought we all had sufficient
money to buy whatever we de
sired then they could raise the
ante to ten or twelve dollars and
we would for the most part get
them since we do desire them for
at least the first two games.
The school makes enough money
from the football team so that
they don't need any more. Their
interest is to sell students' tickets
for the use of students by the
same students who buy them.
I couldn't get enough connec
tion between the big words in the
next paragraph to even hazard an
opinion. But I'll try.
Isn't this world a place for de
mocracy and not feudalism. Isn't
a pretzel a twisted and abused
cracker made of Hough used by
the university board only insofar
as their own thirst is concerned

Foreign Study
at Wisconsin
School Offers Course
For Foreign Service
Madison, Wisconsin, Sept. 29. -J-
Being offered for the first time
this semester at the University of
Wisconsin is an undergraduate
major preparation for the United
Slates government Foreign Ser
vices. This course is for the most
outstanding social science stu
dents. Professors Walter R. Sharp and
GrajNon L. Clark of the Wisconsin
political department and Chester
Lloyd Jones of the economics de
partment have established several
new sequences of at tidies, under
the general heading. International
Relations.
"Although the requirements for
admission and survival are rather
severe and not designed to in
terest great numbers of students,
we trust that a sufficient quantity
of talented, capable applicants will
be attracted. The new major is
designed to hind together the vari
ous social sciences into several
well integrated divisions: prepara
tion for entrance into the Foreign
Service, seeking positions with ex
porting or importing firms, ship
ping companies, International
banking houses, or the foreign
press services." This was the state
ment made by Professor Sharp
concerning the course.
Many Subjects.
Only candidates who have a two
point average for their first two
years in the Arts college are ad
mitted. Political .science, econom
ics, commerce and history form the
major bulk of the curricula, while
related fields, such as anthropol
ogy, geography, geology, journal
ism, philosophy, sociology and so
cial phychology will also be in
cluded. This program is quite flex
ible and allows for numerous
changes and additions according to
the needs and inteiests of the in
dividual students. Some of Amer

One of the suggested curricula
is ti:e preparation for the Ameri

lead toward a position on the diplo

commission, commerce division,
customs and many other positions
in the federal government. In
political science, commerce, eco
nomics, history, geography and
geology various subjects most
closely related to the major arc
pursued. In this manner, along
with basic language and gateway
requirements, the students are pre
pared for service in their various
fields.

j Lincoln Symphony series for this
winter, according to news received
today. Altho the orchestra board
was to have met yesterday to de
cide the future of the organization,
no official action has yet been
taken on the matter.
It has been necessary in past
years to sell at least 1,000 general
admissions and 500 student tickets
to assure the success of the ven
ture. This year, however, altho the
student ticket purchases have
reached their usual level, there has
been a falling off in the number of
general tickets disposed of, and the
rate of sale has also decreased.
Miss Elizabeth Tierney, in charge
of the student ticket sales, has
stated that the talent secured for
this year's concert Reries Is far su
perior to any previously scheduled.
In spite of this, the price rms riot
been raised, and student tickets
may still bo obtained for $3.50 at
Miss Tierney's office, 213 Marrill
