l. as n single member of the frcah
man class, wish to tlinnk "A Senior"
forhls gentle reprimand. I would any

that cannot agree, with the one who
says the upper classmen have no
spirit. And they can be boisterous
when occasion demands, as demon
strated by tho celebrations In Law
ronco n few weekB ago. MoBt of our
representatives were seniors and
JuniorB, and they certainly upheld the
school's honor as far as enthusiasm Is
concerned. And I wish to assure our
poor, deluded senior that, the whole
freshman class was not a party to that
petty attack.
But since 'the subject has been bub-

lie some freshmen who have to bo

To tho Editor of tho Nebraska!!:
As a "Greek" alunmus, permit me
to say a few wordB on the cab ques
. tlon, that has been discussed every
year as far back as TCijn remember,
but yet It seems a settlement cannot
bo reached.
r-Both-8ldOB--aro right, -yotnoither-
seems to have reached the real issued
Should a girl walk through slit inches
"'of slush to a dance? No! '"Whether
formal or informal. Yet I havo known
girls who folt Insulted at not being
talten fo aformnl-.ln a -.cab, and ,thcse,
innV glrla would taehi "Uckle'd" to
death!' to go to a little informal at
Fraternity halt through slush and
snow. Is that sensible? .
On tho other side, it seems to mc a
needless expense to hire a cab to get
to a formal at the Lincoln hotel on a
beautiful. evening and especially if the
girl Uvea on a car line. It would be
far better if the fellows would use
that money in getting a cab for an in
formal on a Btormy night, pay their
"Hag" subscriptions or other debts
thnt "frat" men have.
It seems to mc.the question ehould
not be one of necessity, and not for
mality, and should bo "Shall cabB be
abolished at ALL parties GIVEN UN

lernuies W0ttlrbe-a goodr things for-a
fellow's pocketbook, and the character
of our school. In general.

A "GREEK" ALUMNUS.
To the Editor of the NobraBkan:
Dear Sir: Methlnks something Is
doing. The small statement in yes
termorn's Rag by conspirators calling
themselves the Freshman Clnss and
the seniors babies has displaced the
cork and tho clasB spirits are flowing
at a high rate, such that I fear mo for
mine unworthy life. I make luiBte to

To the Senior and Junior (Masses:
I harcby make public apology to the
senior and Junior classes 'for state
ments appearing In "Rag" and signed

blame for these statements, and do
not seek to retract them, but to apol

thenceforth and now.
Tell' me, Oh tell me, Bober senior
of yesterday's "Rag," if thy dignity is
so great and thy self control so won
derful and thy Innocence unques
tioned, tell me, why dost thou wail?
is-it-not the very small child who crys
when ho is hit? Alas, ir thy dignity
1b so great that thee cannot go to the
rootball game and yell like a Coman
cho Indian to cheer the tired hard
lighting MEN who are battling, for thy
school to put forth Just one more ef
fort, but rather seat thyself with
great -dlgnity-where-the-sun-wlll-noL
strike thy ladylike .countenance and
give a correspondence Bchool yell? Is
it not thou, also majesty, who will bet
on Kansas td win, who when the team
comes back from Minnesota asks,
"Why wo never win?" "Why can't we
have a good team?" etc., etc. - .
I am only a "cute" freshman, from
whom the newness of being away from
home has yet to depart, and I seek
knowledge; wilt thou give it me, and
answer above, Oh man who has been
away from Mamma nearly four years?
Have done!
Respectfully yours,

President Freshman Class.
