Tho peculiar letter which was re ceived by Dr. Loos a fow days ago from Kansas Is tho laHt echo of tho football agitation which swept over tho country a few years ago. It 1b now gonorally recognized that foot fall is a national gnmu that has come to this country to stay. It takos Its toll in a fow deaths every year, but deaths occur through accidents of all kinds, not only In ovory sport but in pvery lino of nctlvlty as well. No gamo can ovor take tho placo of foot ball in tho hearts of tho college men and women of tho country. . A CL08ER RELATIONSHIP. Nebraska "may well follow In tho footBteps of Iowa In tho closer rela tionship which Is being dovoloped In that school between tho undergrad uate body and Ibo alumni students. Greater things cap' only bo accom plished when tho Interest which stu dentB have for tho unlvorslty docB not grow leBB but Increases and grows more 'denr as tho years go by.

If ndopted it would mean that track athletics would bo given the recognition that they de servo as one of the most, importnnt branches of Nebraska athlqtlcs. Leaving out of consideration tho question as to whether or not a train ing table is in itself justifiable,, there can. bo no question but that if it is justifiable in tho case of tho football team it Ib justifiable (h tho caso of the track team. If a training tablo develops the spjrlt of tho- football team, and Improves its physical con dition, it will do the same for tho track team. Nebraska haB never given to other branches of athlotlps than football tho consideration that they deserve. 0( course it is not possible to devolopo at Nebraska, because of physical con ditions, many of tho sports that aro so popular at other schools, but thpro is no reason why NebrnBka should not .tlevelon to tho fullest oxtont those branches of. athletics which are rep resented here. . Nebraska has always had good track teams anq" may well take pride in th(j work thaj; they havo done. Anything that w.iUtend to raise this shle of .ehashaathletics to Tai higher sjan (fard deserves the 'support of tho ath letic board. recording news. All newspapers dls semlnato Information and keep their readers in touch with tho development of public questions. The ideal paper must do more. It must creat public sentiment, organize movements, raise 'funds, formulate legislation, work for appropriations and conduct a practical campaign for each good cause. It must be willing to stand alono when once convinced that its course ris light. It must havo convictions on all public questions, and maintain them in tho face of misrepresentation. It must prlzo character and consistency above popularity. "To be informative corrective and, most of alj, constructive this is the sum of the work." Wednesday, 14. Easter Vacation ends at 8 a. m.
