For It Is Indifference to the desires of tho faculty convocation committee which provents the attendance or 75 per cent of the students. It Is Indif ference to their own personal welfare which keopB them away. Tho convo cation exorcises are bonoflclal. Only in rare instances can a man or woman attend tho programs without being benefited by what he hears. New and original Ideas are expounded from the convocation platform, old theories are restated In now form, and frequently musical programs of rare excellence aro rendered. Tho student who does not attend misses something. He loses a part of what he came to the university to acquire. He hurts him self more than anybody olse.

Many a man Is willing to strive for such a reward as those offered for high class worlc without other remu neration. But the chance of failure is very great, considering the number of competitors, and it is expecting a groat deal of a man's desire for hon ors to think that he will rUn the chance of taking time from his uni versity course without receiving some practical return. True enuf, the ex perience Is valuable, but that does not recompense him entirely for tho time taken from Regular work. FIR8T CONVOCATION. The announcement of the first reg ular convocation of the year In Me morial hall at 11 this morning should carry a message to every Nebraska student. But It Is doubtful Is more than a third' of the registered enroll ment In the colleges located on tho city campus will be present to hear Prof. Caldwell on "Socializing Tenden cies."

AN APPEAL TO 8TUDENT8. In this issue of the Nebraska the city Y. M. C. A. puts forth its claims for the support of university students. Tho city association is now engaged in a campaign for the raising of $100,000 with which to complete the building started upon the corner of Thirteenth and P streets, three blocks from the university campus. To date they have secured nearly $80,000 of tho desired amount and It poems like ly that they will not fall far short, ir at all, of the mark which they have set. The Y, M. C A. has ever since Its Inception been, as its name denotes, an organization of young men. Men of middle age, and old men, have occa sionally distinguished Its ranks, but these were In every case young old men. They were men of youthful spirit, If not youthful years. The Y. M. C.Aj throughout is a youthful so ciety and Its work Is marked by the zeal, the ambition, and the eager ef fort which Is characteristic or the young man. In every sense the Y. M. C. A. Is a progressive institution. .It constantly moves forward. It seeks always that which Is In the lead. And being a progressive organization, the Y. M. C. A. is deserving of the support of tho university. The university Itself stands for progress. Its students are looked upon by the world In general as the progressive' element of the com mtwflty. These two progressive insti tutions should stand together. Now, when the occasion offers, the mem bear of tho one should aid tho oth.er.

MERRY FIGHT AMONG CLAS8 POLITICIANS and both are expecting a hard fight. ' Junior Candidates. In the Junior class affalrB have taken on a complex appearance In the course of a day. One candidate Is out and there aro possibilities of more", -with the support scattered almost indis criminately .and a great deal of it still Insecure. A A. M. Oberfelder of Sidney, who has mm I been lining up support for several v dayB, is a member of no organization. He was on the sophomore debating team last year, anlThas always been active in class affairs. His platform, he says, is the square deal, no par tiality to any class or department of the school. Other very probable candidates who have not as yet decided definitely to run are Harry L. Cain and L. Ti. Blanchard. Cain is a member of the Phi Delta Theta- fraternity and has many friends urging him to run, while Blanchard, a barb, Is also urged to run by a number of warm supporters. Both of these men are well known to their class, having" served In various capacities during the past three years. Coe Buchanan, an Omaha man, has announced his candidacy for fresh man president and has already gath ered a number of supporters. No op position haB aB yet developed, hut sev eral candidates are being spoken of as possibilities. The freshmen are meet ing with the usual difficulty. The fact that the ntemberBof the class are practically strangers to one another. Buchanan's supporters were out In force yesterday, rapidly overcoming this handicap.

Louio Harto has been playing full back and seems to fill the hill In every way. Last night ho was put at tackle and Rathbono was switched to full. As yet there are few positions that can be said to be cinched, and Satur day's game will gp a long way In showing what sort of stuff the new men are made of. From present Indi cations Nebraska bids fair to have a team that will carry off tho honors in the Missouri Valley championship con test this fall, and regain our lost laurelB. In addition to the reirulnr nrnniiw last night Coach Cole tried out some or tne men at "kicking off." Franck, Harte, and Perrin booted the ball well, Borne of the kicks going over sixty yards.
