Next year the state legislature meets again
to determine what appropriation shall be given the
University and very little that will happen will be
more important than that. For too many years, this
single great institution of higher learning in Ne
braska has suffered from lack of sufficient funds
to carry on its best work. For too many years this
institution, which is one of the greatest guarantees
of future well-being that the state has, has been
crowded out by other agencies seeking revenue.
Certain vital functions of the University cannot
continue much longer unless its financial demands
are met, and so the next appropriation will be
watched with bated breath by all friends of the
school. The DAILY can well lend a drive to make
the legislators realize the needs of the school. The
undergraduate student body comes from all over
the state and its influence could be great if wisely
directed. In cooperation with the administration and
other school agencies (in order that the various ef
forts may not be at odds with one another), this
paper can do the University a great service next
year to guarantee its future well being.
Finally, remember that whereas you and I are
convinced that the DAILY is the greatest and the
most essential extra-curricular activity on the cam
pus, the rest of the school needs constant convinc
ing. Never lose your enthusiasm fcf the University
of Nebraska and the great state behind it!

Traditionally, this is
To The New Editor
... (but anyone can read it)
Closing editorial of the DAILY each semester
la traditionally a message from the retiring editor
to the new one. On the surface such a practice may
eeem rather senseless since the organization of the
Btaff is usually close enough that the message if
needed at all could be delivered less publicly. But
the policy and activities of the campus paper are
the interest of the entire University and so it is
deemed in line to continue the tradition.
Most obvious bit of advice that can be given
is to follow up the leads taken this semester on
securing an extension of women's hours, and the
setting up of a central campus orchestra booking
organization. Both are worthwhile projects and
both are well witnin the realm of possibility.
Never forget that the DAILY is an agency to
promote the University and such promotion can
usually best be secured through cooperation with
other campus agencies. The Student Council, Corn
Cobs, Tassels, Innocents, Mortar Board, the Barb
organizations, Kosmct Klub, all are interested in
the advancement of the school and all deserve the
assistance of the DAILY even as the DAILY de
serves their assistance. As the real voice of the
campus and probably the most powerful instrument
for mass leadership and coordination which the
school contains, the DAILY has a responsibility and
a position of which it cannot attend ever to lose
sight. Naturally this does not mean that a namby
pamby milk and water policy should be followed.
It does not mean that controversial subjects are
taboo. What, it does mean is that DAILY editors
should never forget that what they say is pre
served in permanent type for a great many people
to see, and that therefore they never say anything
without due consideration and investigation to as
sure themselves that it not only Is true but that its
influence will be good in the long run. Frequently
a dose of thoughtful and constructive criticism is
the best thing a college paper can give out.
Try to remember that although the DAILY
primarily is a student newspaper, it is also a
University newspaper and the University contains
faculty members and administration executives
In addition to the undergraduate body. The in
terests of all can be served In the Interests of the
University and indeed fundamentally the Inter
ests of all are quite similar In that they are the
Interests of the University. Let the paper reflect
the entire Institution and In that way it will not
only advance In reader popularity but it will gain
in Influence.
ON THE WAY to the campus are some 2,000
copies of the new Nebraska songs which Fred
Waring composed and presented to the Univer
sity on a recent Chesterfield broadcast. They will
probably be distributed next fall to band, glee,
and other groups which can put them to best use.
It is quite possible that, one or both cr the songs
may become popular with the school a'ter a time.
It has been suggested that students who enjoyed
and appreciated Mr. Waring's gift to Nebraska
might write the orchestra leader and tell him so.
Without seeming to plug one brand cf cigarettes
over another, we can think of another way by
which students might show their appreciation
which probably would bear considerable more
weight with the Chesterfield company.
GREAT CAMPUS MYSTERY yesterday was
voiced by students watching the giant water
sprinklers as they revolved on the mall and park
ings between Sosh and Andrews. In a word,
"Why?" Inasmuch as a blade of grass would look
conspicuous in that vicinity, the only answers avail
able were that the University was "surprising"
owners of parked cars with a free wash job, or else
the ground was being softened up in the interests
of campus earthworms.
WITH THIS ISSUE, the DAILY closes down
until next September. For some members of the
staff it is the last issue for all time. It is also
the last issue which June seniors will read as
undergraduates. Thus in this rather sentimental
moment, the DAILY wishes all its readers pleas
ant summers, its seniors good jobs andor happy
marriages, and regretfully signs the old news
paper closing, "30."

"I'erhap the most frightening aspect of modern
war it the intellectual blackout uluch it en-ate. One
doe not have to lubicribe to II, G. IIVIIi' grim
prophecy that 'mankind, which began in a cave and
bi'hind a windbreak, will end in the disease soaked
ruin of a tlum; but certainly the right in Europe
cannot be long continued without the sacrifice o,
cultural value on no vast a scale that the chance ,
an enlightened and gracious life, not alone for thi
generation in Europe but for the children and grand
children of thin generation, trill be irretrievably

"With but very few exceptions, we hare had n
truly great teacher in this century. It is up to us, a
good teacher, to teach our ttudent to read, write
and ipeak to that they will he able to read the teach

their philosophy not for the past' sake but for tlw
take of the pretent and future." Dr. Mortimer J.
Adler, professor of philosophy of law at Unirersity

..."The young man or woman planning m career
thould begin to point toward it in high tehol or even
earlier. He sftouid learn which field interest him,
which he sefmt to be fitted for, which will call for
capacities he teem to have, lie can develop hi tal
working at it in his tparv time, if possible. Then he
will come out of school with some understanding of
what he want to do, tchat he can do and why he
