DEBATING.
Now that football 1b Inld nwny In
mothballs, and ovon tho proposod ex
cursion to tho Pacific coast has bo
corto an impossibility, Nebraskana
Bhould begin to turn thoir attontlon
to tho collegiate activities, which
servo to niako groat tho name of tho
Cornhuskor in othor lines.
First of thoso, now, is debating.
In this lino of work Nebraska has
a past record no whit less glorious
than her football history, and at pres
ent she faces a contingency which
ncods the support of Nebraskans gen
erally. Debating is a thing that does not,
he lives In hope of something which,
onco attained, he will consider ample
reward for his sacrifices, and it must
bo that when the time at last arrlveB
when ho is called upon to put forth
the best he has for Nebraska he is
not going td. atop -upon the platform
with a non-challant, haphazard air,
but with tho full determination to
givo his forenBlc opponents just as
flerco a battle of wits as ever did the
Cornhuskors givo them of brawn.
No football game, no baseball game,
no baBkct-ball game, no track meet
can prove Blow or dull when two
teams are battling for supremacy with
every ounco of energy they possess.
Nor can a dobate, so contested, prove
anything other than live, interesting,

at first blush, uppeal, to the lovor of
athletic sports. It seems from the
.outside a sort of dry-as-dust event that
most of us know occurs every year,
but that fow of us wish to attend.
There is nothing in the thought of a
debute that appeals to the lovo for
battle so rampant during football sea
son, and for t hat reason debating,
coming directly at tho cloBe of tho
gridiron contests, soeins at first glance
a pale thing.
But when one stops .to realize that
the debating team has been training
for this one event for half a month
longer than tho football team trained
for Ub eight battles; when ono con
siders that in the success or failuro
of an hour next Friday evening is em
bodied tho result of a whole year's
labor then ono begins to realize that
there must be something in debating
after all.
- It must be that tho men who labor
so long and industriously, have for
thoir chosen field, as great a lovo and
enthusiasm ag has the football, track,
or basket-ball nian. It mufitbethat
and ovon perhaps oxciting. to persons
of such Intellectual attainments as
collego mon and women are presup
posed to possess.
1TI10 editor feels suro that as a de
bater ho would prove unablo to win
the iifllrmatlve of even such " question
as "Resolved, It Hurts to Do Kicked,"
unloHS actual experience was counted
100 per cent, but ho feels equally sure
thut debating itself is worthy tho at
tendance and interested support of
every Ncbraskan from tho Chancellor
to tho janitors and the "Rag" staff.
