Poor Sportsmanship
Continues to Nag Fans
For the second time this year, Monday
night, an incident occurred behind the vis
ting coaches bench in the Coliseum.
Earlier in the season, officials stopped
the Marquette contest when coach Eddie
Hickey complained that he was being
pelted with refuse from the stands behind.
Monday, Kansas State coach Tex Winter
and his assistants were subjected to foul
mouthed abuse from an overly partisan
Nebraska fan.
The Daily Nebraskan has repeatedly
urged fans to confine their support of the
Huskers to cheering for them. Showering
abuse on the opposition and the referees is
not only poor sportmanship, it may actu
ally cost Nebraska a win.
Cosily Comments
A couple of years ago in a high school
contest tied 6O-60 with 16 seconds left the
home crowd became so abusive in their
conduct toward the officials and th visit
ing team that the referees called two
straight technical fouls on the crowd. The
home club lost by the margin of those two
free throws, 62-60.
This could happen here if such incidents
continue.
The athletic department and the coaches
have been very pleased with the support
Huskerites have tendered their teams.
Director of athletics, Bill Orwig told the
Daily Nebraskan that he felt the support
of the stands had been a definite factor in
several of Nebraska's wins this year.
Bad Reflection
But the kind of support that relies on
boorishness is not the kind the players like
to receive. It reflects badly on them as a
team and on the school they represent.
, Moreover, they know that a team whose
fans develop a reputation for poor sports
manship will "catch it in the neck" when
their situation is reversed and Nebraska
is the visiting team.
So let's continue to support the Huskers.
But let's keep it clean.
Really Scared
Anyone who follows Pogo knows that
Monday was groundhog day.
Scientists say that a groundhog never
sees his shadow on Feb. 2 anyway be
cause he is rolled up in a hibernating ball
somewhere where it is warm instead of at
tending 8 a.m. classes. (Smart fellow).
At any rate, Monday was no day for
shadows, so if the old wive's tale is to be
believed, .we are in for six weeks more of
bad weather. Nebraskan's familiar with
the meteorology of their native state have
probably long since come to the conclu
sion that the Husker state has the scardest
ground hogs in the nation.
The Spectrum
By Carroll Kraus
The face of the world is constantly
changing. Technologists and scientists are
reaching pinnacles it was once said man
could never attain. The world is becoming
smaller, more is being demanded of the
individual.
Accept that? OK, now
to continue.
With this ever-increas--
ing complexity of the
world the individual is de
manded to mature early
and accept responsibility.
You agree. Yes, but
you're a student Why
can't administrators see
things our way? I dunno,
but they're from a differ
ent era, of course.
Why can't they see that we like to be
allowed to do things according to the work
we've done and the seniority we've gained,
instead of by the first letter that happens
to be our surname?
Why can't they see that we are not all
corrupt cribbers and cheaters, whose only
aim is to get a grade that will allow us to
be initiated into a fraternal group or to
keep the money rolling in from home?
Kraus
have a student governing body that could
truly pass judgment on students who have
strayed from the paths of rules that per
haps even that particular student tribunal
doesn't approve?
Why are class cuts considered a fatal
step to failure by some instructors? After
all, the student is paying for his education
and is being tested periodically on what he
has learned. In addition, often the most
heavUy cut classes are ones in which the
instruclor is content to parallel his lec
tures to the text so closely that the lec
tures are mere repetitions of what Is writ
ten in the book.
Women's rights? They're pretty far from
equal at old NU. I don't think much has
to be mentioned about the present wom
en's hours enjoyed here.
Hope I haven't been too wrong in in
terpreting several of the views held by
NU students. I think quite a few will agree
with me. But what about the people in
the TC annex?
Cheating
A llied, there has been and will con
tinue to be a certain amount of cheating
by students that's human nature. But
when a professor keeps students apart by
a row of desks' and two chairs on each
side in a test, he might as well say "you're
not to be trusted; you're all potential
cheaters."
Why can't they see that we'd like to
Look Like a Student?
Looks like I'll have to look like a student
if not act like one this year. Class cuts
could be dangerous. My poli sci instruc
tor has warned against them; I get paid
for attending ROTC; my journalism class
meets just once a week and I'd hate to
lose a 16th of my credit by not attending;
my pin mate governs my attendance in 8
o'clock economics by being enrolled in the
same class; and by the time my 10 o'clock
psych class rolls around I'll be so much in
the habit of attending classes that I'll
automatically just shift rooms, find a soft
chair, and rest another 50 minutes.
Grade Arrivals Cause
Mounting Adds, Drops
By Sondra Whale
Nearly 300 students have
changed their registration and
classes since Friday, said
Mrs. Irraa Laase, assistant
registrar.
A delay in opening the of
fice caused a further pileup
of students waiting to change
their schedules.
'Gone' Key
The key to the registrar's
window was lost, causing a
half hour wait until someone
was found to open the pad
lock. "It makes as pretty rushed,
especially because some sto
dents are still registering,
Mrs. Laase said.
Some of the reasons for
dropping and adding are eith
er flunking a course which
one expected to pass or vice
versa, she commented. "
Most Repeats
"We particularly notice that
students have to repeat
courses most often in chem
istry, math, beginning sci
ence and English," she said.
Another popular reason is
the discovery by city campus
students that the course they
registered for is being beld
on Ag campus.
Most of the students adding
and dropping are freshmen
and sophomores, she report
ed, with juniors and seniors
adding and dropping when
they find that they are miss
ing a course necessary for
graduation.
Not For Dislike
Dislike of an instructor or
a course itself is not a pri
mary reason for adding and
dropping now, Mrs. Laase
said, although that cause be
comes more paramount as the
Feb. 14 deadline nears.
"Of course there are still
those students who decide on
the first day that a course is
not for them," she said, "and
we always find those who say
'my fraternity brother took
the same thing and be didn't
like the course or the instruc
tor.' "
Students wishing to add and
drop cmsrms must first see
their advisers, then go to the
registrar's office. The fee is
12.50.

This may rot your mind,
however:
I was sitting in the mid
dle of my thoughts, trying
to understand where I was,
(which happens quite often)
when my instructor bellered
at me and I knew where I
was, (which made me sad).
I don't mean she bellered
with her big loud mouth. It
was her big loud eyes that
were bellering. It was 8
a.m. in a large silent cav
ern in Social Sciences Hall
and this instructor was
standing on a podium or
something, staring at me.
All of the classrooms I
have used in this building
have little stages for in
structors to stand on and
look down from. This is
kind of scary when you
think about it, especially if
your instructor is short and
squatty, like mine, and
stares down at you with
mean, questioning eyes.
Stare Back?
Well, there I was with
this teacher's eyes scream
ing at me and a vague
feeling that I ought to say
something, or maybe stare
back. I cautiously nudged
the girl next to me to get
some help with whatever
the question was. I had
tried that once before and
knew nudgin? that girl
would only bring more
trouble because you just
don't nudge girls sitting
next to you, at least girls
at this University. They get
fidgety if you do it and start
squirming around and
looking uncomfortable and
throwing sort of odd side
ways glances at you, which
is just what this girl did,
making me feel even more
uncomfortable.
Right then the girl lit a
cigarette and started flick
ing ashes nervously into my
pants cuff. I wanted a cig
arette too, because this in
structor was still staring at
me.
Then the Instructor turn
ed away and began to talk
to the class about people
who daydream in class and
don't hear questions, and
how these people are inse
cure and emotionally im
mature and unstable, and
will never make good mar
riage partners. I really got
embarrassed then and
wanted to do something
nonchalant, so I emptied
the ashes from my pants
cuff and blew them along
the floor.
