Editorial Remarks
NEBRASKA SPIRIT.
Although not agreeing entirely with
the sentiment contained therein wc
must refrain from expressing anything
but approval of the spirit which
piompted the communication printed
in another column. The sentiment
tegarding the aiding of our Alma
Mater by bringing here promising ma
terial, not only athletic, but all ma
terial tohlch will bo of use, ought to
The appearance of the gridiron war
riors in battle array on the field yes
terday brought back vislgns of long
1 tints, flying tackles, end runs, tout h
downs and goals, of a sea of faces gay
with scarlet and cream ribbon and
pennants, of voices, hoarse with prev
ious effort, uniting in a grand triumph
ant "U-U-U-N-i"; visions strangely in
consistent with the meager garb of
the track men and the hot rays of the
spring sun. Hut the vision was a
good one. If the spirit displayed at
the first spring practice holds the
colors of a certain five state univers
ities will float beneath the scarlet and
cream next fall. To get out, time
after time, in the hot football suits
and go through work which, but for
what it means after awhile, is
drudgery itself, will require an exhibi
tion of real Nebraska spirit. From
present indications the exhibition will
not be lac king.
Communication.
111 tor The Nebraskan:
Would you permit a few words from
a former student, not a graduate,
rather one of the many "undergradu
ate" alumni, of Nebraska, whose privi
lege it has been to call the old school
his for a while only? However, these
ah wish her well. Last Thanksgiving
there were many who came, some of
them hundreds of miles, to see the
game with Illinois, and yelled them
sehes hoarse and sang Insanely with
the rooting squad.
It is a common matter of wonder
that Nebraska does not make,. a more
general and systematic effort to draw
recruits for her athletic teams from
the high schools of the state. It would
benefit the university in other lines as
well as in athletics. Nearly every year
good men are persuaded to go to Peru,
Hastings, Hellevue and such schools,
for their representatives are in the
field. These fellows are practically
lost to athletics and are seldom heard
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

he such a common, every day, taken-for-granted
sort of feeling as to make
comment supeuiluous. But this spirit,
and we say it with deepest regret. Is
so unusual that this- exhibition of the
right sort merits some note.
There never has been such a thing as
Nebraska spirit prevalent among our
Alumni, that is, prevalent to an ex
lent at all approaching what it should
be. Now and then the unexpected, in
the shape of a similar communication,
bobs up, but so rare are these evi
dences of Nebraska spirit among the
great body of our Alumni that we
like to dwell for a time upon them.
Extensive preparations are being
made by tho Alumni committee to
make Alumni day of commencement
week some such a reunion day of old
Nebraska men as It should be. The
Undergraduate body of students can do
oN great deal toward making this day
of. All over the state in the various
lnh schools are strapping young fel
lows bythe dozen with bone and
muscle or the faun in them, many of
them, just higll school, boys, around
six feet in height and weighing from
1 00 to 190 pounds and some are mighty
Met of foot. By the time these hoys
have graduated from high school many
of them have had several years train
ing in high school football and have
made good records. A large number
of them are financially ' able to go
further, without trouble. But at the
critical time is lacking tho urging
word, the touch of enthusiasm which
would set their faces toward the Uni
versity, and the boy goes to school nj
longer. Or perhaps some day tho
emissary of some denominational
school stands In the pulpit of the local
church and talks in beautiful imagery

With some well directed effort by the
tight people, with little expense, and
all legitimate, many promising men
could be brought to the university
every year.

The meeting of the Student's Debat
ing club was woll attended last Satur
day night in spite of the various other
attractions. After the usual parlia
mentary scrap the orders of the day
were taken up Cuitis and Petersen

and I.egio upheld the negative of the
question of government ownership of
railroads.
The debate with Alpha Omega of
