Although we contend that band members read into Wednesday's editorial more than what was actually there, which is understandable, we want to make a further explanation. The purpose of the editorial was not to criticize the band in any way but merely to suggest something it might do to eliven spirit at the games. What was suggested, we have learned, is Incongruous with congerence game rules and therefore can not be used. In all fairness it must be said that the Varsity band has done enough in the way of increasing game spirit from playing during time outs to ably supporting the cheerleaders in yells that it war rants the highest commendation. Their half time performance have prebably brought more favorable comment to the UN than any other single factor. In short, we think the Varsity band is unexcelled. We regret that what was meant for a constructive suggestion in Wednesday's editorial was in violation of game rules and Jed to misunderstand ing among band members..

Double Talk by Don and Al Amsden One of the Lincoln papers held a Kangaroo court on Nebraska football this week summarily ex iling it to the wastes of Siberia. Technically, this might be called impartial and realistic jour nalism. Certainly this sports edi tor was not concerned with re flecting feelings here on the cam pus. But. with no contrary voices, this attitude may be accepted as the attitude of the studen body. Also, there's an equal tendency to confuse the premature howls from outstate with campus" opin ion. It all adds up to a psychological atmosphere that can be accepted as gospel, if no one bothers to ar gue the point. But this doesn't seem to be a true picture at all of the feelings of the student body. In fact, there seems to be strong reaction to that kind of talk. Pre mature and hasty talk of "change" and upheaval is running into in creasingly stiff opposition. We hope so. We have defended student spirit before in this col umn and now, if ever, is the time for it to prove itself. It will be evident at the Homecoming rally that's a foregone conclusion. But certain groups are giving the thought to other ways to demon strate definite support of the earn and is coaches. The team made a poor showing against Missouri last week, but it seems unnecesary for students who listened to the game (includ ing ourselves) to remind the team of that fact. In spit eof the criti cism, the team has done little or no alibying, altho they have two ready-made alibis in the ever growing list of injuries to key players and the fact that all three Big Six opponents thus for en countered have been primed for the Nebraska game. The team still hasn't lost its confidence, but they certainly can use the knowledge that the stu dent body hasn't lost its confi dence in them. The next couple of games may well be the crucial point in Nebraska football for years to come. Even if its only for the selfish motive of wanting to see a good football game, its im portant to show the tearrL that (regardless of what outsiders might say) we think they can play better ball. If Nebraska wins Saturday, there will be lots of fellow trav elers hopping back on the band wagon. We figure now is the time to show both Bernie and the squad that we're riding with them all the way. The weak spot in this foot ball picture may be remedied by just a show of support. It's easy to go along with the wolves, but we think we'll go the other way. liJ'tp M "rl prr?

Homecoming and BHRIH!! Homecoming and the biggest weekend of the year. A schedule, packed sardine-fashion, of activity for all. The pre mature cremation of the monstrous Jayhawk Wednesday eve, in reality, tinder-boxed all that is to follow but tonite the real fun begins. Judging of the house decorations and the galaxy of the BHRIH officially opens the weekend. (While we welcome all old grads we're sorry you struggled through this institution so early and missed out on the fun we're having now.) .

At half-time in the Husker-Jayhawk tussle the 1946 Pep Queen will be presented and the bands will perform. The day will be climaxed by the dance at the Coliseum and the coronation of the 1947 Pep Queen. ' That's it, it's here and we're ready.
