Classes Deserve Some Attention Tn answer to the following letter, we einphnsize the fact that students are supposed to go to school to learn, not entirely for honors of another sort. The statement, "we get out of our classes what we put into them" df-serves to he underlined. Dear Editor: Since it seems to be a time of asking questions, may i in terject a few f Why all this fuss about politics and personalities on tho campus? It would seem from the attention it has been getting that it was a matter of life and death with a great number of people. 1 may be laboring under false delusions, but I always have thought that college was supposed to be an opportunity for preparing for the future and for making oneself more able to cope with the world later on ... an opportunity to develop something within ourselves that may add to society as a whole. If such is the case and I haven't been wrong, then where is the justification for all this todoo about whether one person or an other with certain backing gets an office or an honor t If col lege is a preparation and proving ground, what difference does it make who gets the position as long as they .deserve it? In 1960 what difference will it make who was Nebraska Sweetheart in 1946? Those titles of "queen. of this or that" are so numerous it is doubtful there is any honor to them at all. If the sororities feel they must have so many queens to show the new rushees to prove how good a gang they are, per haps the sororities should do a little introspection and redis cover what their original purpose was instead of what they have developed into. How about trying just for once letting someone run for an office on his own merits, 1. e.. neither one or the other party backing him. That's when you'll find out what a person has that deserves election. Then you 11 get rid of all the questions about whether those people who get high honors are deserving of them. And if this is a preparatory round for future reference, how about our studying a little more and knowing what the professor is talking about in class? If such as that were to happen, just possibly classes would get into subjects a little deeper and Nebraska graduates, as has happened so many times, wouldn't feel so dumb when talking to other college graduates. It's about time we stopped giving the professor all the blame for classes being dull and realize that we- get out of them what we put into them. All in all, why don't we all stop a minute and ask our- Relves why we're here going to school instead of helping directly with the war effort? If after that this political bauble em con tinue, 1 agree I've had the wrong idea Gertrude Lyon. BY SHIRLEY KEITH. Another weekend calls hither, and it looks like we're in for many a fine time.

Your shirts are valuable items these days and appreciate special handling. ' Turn Mp your shirt collar before sending it to the laundry. A collar washed flat doesn't fray so easily at the crease. Have your shirts laundered frequently. A too soiled shirt requires more scrubbing and conse quently wears out more quickly. Co easy on the starch. Starching stiffens fabric, so that it breaks instead of bending. When you buy, buy Arrow.
