Editorial Remarks
If Kansas Ib bound to piny tho rowdy,
why doesn't Nebraska's athletic board
Btrlke her off our schedule list? There
nre only two fair-minded solutions to
such a situation as the present one:
either fight them with their own weap
ons, If we are so minded to bemenn
ourselves; or quit having anything to
uo with them until they learn to be
have themBelveB like college men ln
Btead of a gang of hoodlums. There
1b no need of playing the baby act;
but the common sense proposal to Ig
nore Kansas athletically until her stu
dents can condescend to decent man
ners 1b one worthy of acceptance. Cut
Kansas off the baseball, football, and
track schedules until she learns to be
have. OO
The pyflfltR and controversies of the
paBt two or three weeks point a good
moral: actions bordering bo cloBcly on
the disreputable as to risk constant
mislnterprttatlon and demand constant
explanation are best cut out. Beer
drinking, for Instance, may be a good
or a bad habit, according to your point
of view; but Indulgence In it, followed
by a show of horror when the news of
Biich Indulgence gets out. is all fool
iBhnesB. It is well understood that
beer drinking Is becoming more com
Nnon each year among University men,
and especlully bo among the Greek let
ter element In both school and faculty.
Why such a ridiculous effort to keep It
quiet? It Is a custom that age brings
more or less to every school, denomi
national or state. If it Is defensible, let
It be acknowleuged and supported. If
It is so near the indefensible line that
news of it brings consternation to Its
devotees, the sooner it is gotten rid of,
the better. A little open-faced man
hood Injected Into numerous college
and University affairs would work a
wonderful clearing of the scholastic atmosphere.

A Beerless Barbecue.
Editor Nebraskan.
Owing to the fact that a few fellows
not present at the barbecue have Been
fit to tell tire public their opinion
through the State Journal columns, I
accept your suggestion that I write up
the barbecue as I saw It. To begin
with, the Pan-Hellenic CongresB 1b an
organization that has existed since last
fall, when It was thought by every frat
In school except these few fellows that
better results would be obtained from
college life If the men of one set were
acquainted with the other fraternities,
thus abolishing the accustomed Isola
tion of each clique, and welding all
In one mass for better aid to the Uni
versity and to themselves. According
ly, delegates were elected, two from
each chapter, and meetlngB held every
two weekB up to the present time. The
organization has In Its constitution,
"the prime object Bhall be to promote
the welfare of the University and aid
ItB development In what ever way pos
sible by careful consideration of the
Greek letter societies and their effect
on college life."
A reception was given at the Sigma
Alpha EpBllon chapter house the Sat
urday before Thanksgiving, at which
wore gathered University professors
and men of every fraternity alumni
and students. Previous to this time
the Minnesota football victory cnmo
off. There was but a single day to get
things ready to show the eleven how
much Nebraska appreciated her suc
cess n the far north. It was thought
the Pan-Hel Congress was the beat or
ganized association In college, and con
sequently the celebration was ready
Monday morning when the team ai
rlved There were booms of cannon,
and carryall, and flowers, and In fact
everything to show our joy. It was the
Pan-Hrl Congress whose men worked
the night before and got things ready
for the chapel exhibition on that Mon
day And It might be said that every
frat in college waB assessed two dol
lars to pay the expenses of that cele
bration, and todny every one baa paid
except the fellowB who hold up the
barbecue to public criticism
In January n whist and chess tourna
ment was held at Deltn Upsllon chap
ter house, the north side of 0 street
frnts nlavlnn thase south. The men
gathered from all the frnternltles In
college, except one. and had a good
time, meeting each other, with stu
dents and professors
Then The Dally Nebraskan 'met Its
crisis, bare of advertisers, and the Pan
Hel Congress passed resolutions that,
where possible, each chapter should In
sist on its member buying of those
firms aiding the University by sup
porting the paper This much was
chronicled In The Dally at that time
under the heading, "Pan-Hellenic
Hacks Nebraskan." and yet these same
fellows were not present
Then, witn spring's coming, the base
ball league was organized, and a com
mittee appointed, and rules adopted,
and a schedule made out. Interfrat
names have been played all spring, fur
nishing amusement ami exercise under
the very shadow of the University.
At the Bnme time the committee on
baseball was appointed, the one on
barbecue was also announced. I wan
made chairman. Therefore I asked the
delegates, to see tholr chapters and get
an opinion on what they wanted and
any Ideas for fun. At the next meet
ing they reported so that It was deter
mined by the congress: tirst, that
alumni should be invited from over the
state, and a big reunion held, similar
to those held by other fraternal organi
zations; second, that it should be held
either the day before or the day after
the Pan-Hel dance; third, that there
were to be no spiritual ingredients, for
the reason that It would hurt Nebraska
University.
This last determination waB thor
oughly discussed, and with but one con
clusion. So the committee was to have
no beer. They saw then the danger
that some few of the alumni,
when out in the fields under the trees,
might bring something along to drink,
but the congress concluded it could not
be avoided, nor did they think that a
few fellows around the campus would
delight In plastering their college with
mud and criticism. It waB thought
that by care and requests the booze
question could be handled and nothing
known.
Now. the barbecue came off last
Thursday at Cushman's park. Invita
tions had been sent out to alumni.
Rain interfered, but about eighty ffil-

a ball game, and a band, and speeches
by alumni and active men Besides
the program by the (ommlttee, some
one, as It was hoped would not hap
pen, brought some beer, and had It
secreted in a distant part of the park.
Here fifteen or twenty men gathered
at different times during the after
noon and clinked cups All the while
the committee had a ball game and
other entertainment doing Here was
gathered the crowd, and It was not gen
erally known till supper time, after
the ball game, that there was any beer
there It was then that John Wilson,
president of the congress, and myself
went out and found two kegs, one In
an old Ice house there, and threw
them into the creek They were never

past in the river, It would have been

o'clock The absence of some of these
fellows from the barbecue was noted,

not been for a few fellows the barbe

vertised The .-.tar and News gave
complimentary write-ups. as, I believe,
waB deserved The Journal and those
fellows waited until Sunday, when the
papers went over the state, to say what
they thought about what they did not
see. "Kegs of beer, blacs eyes, and
broken heads" look well together and
make what newspapers call a good
story. Personally. I am very sorry the
article appeared, but feel that at col
lege It will be construed as a mam
moth volcano, supplied by a clique of
sore-heads under the title of honor
able fellows GEO SH IDLER.
