When a Nebraskan says that he iB attending ono of the best schools in tho country and. without a doubt, tho best school In the middle west, he is not making an idle, windy boaBt, but Is giving a statement that is born out by statistics and factB recognized as authoritatlvo from one end of the na tion to tho othor. And disregarding any consideration of the numerous phases of school life at Nebraska that might be cited as evidence of the gen oral superiority of the school, there is ono department of student activity that haa by itself proved, not only that old Nebraska is the most active and flourishing university in the mid dlo west, but that she gives unbound ed opportunity for increased develop ment and success. Such a department is that of ath lotics. For the past few years Nebraa ka haB been persistently forging her way to the front in this line of devel opment until the victories of the pres ent year have given her, up to the present time, undisputed claim to two Missouri vallej championships in the most important brandies of athletics football and basketball. Not only that, but to put it very modestly, slit is doped for a place in the track world that will be very little below her standing in the other lines, the possi bllitles promising second place at the least. Champions in Football. After winning the valley football championship of last year Nebraska made her lirst move towards success for the pifesent year by making "Jum bo" Stielfm head coach. By strenu ous and determined training from th first, Stiehm built up his famous "Stiehm rollers" which, under the cap able guidance of Captain Shonka. bowled over one after another, the teams of Kearney Normal, Kansas Ag gies, Missouri, Ames Aggies, Doane and Kansas. With the exception of Minnesota, which is not In the valley conference, with no difllculty whatever Nebraska simply ran all over every team she met until the Michigan game. Tliis game marked the high est climax ever readied in the football world of the west, being one of the seven greatest games of the year in tho United States, and Nebraska more than showed herself equal to tho most strenuous ordeal in her football his tory By the confession of all who saw the Nebraska-Michigan game, no matter from what school they hailed, tho Scarlot and Cream not only dem onstrated its superiority over the northern aggregation, but Bhowod It solf equal in fobtball ability to any school in the country with tho excep tion of two or threo of tho largest in stitutions In tho east. Tho Michigan gamo Is an ovont In Nebraska's his tory of which she 1b Justly proud, and is but ono evidence of Nebraska's growing importance. Progress In Other Fields. With equal vim as that displayed in football, Nebraska ontered upon her championship basketball Beason. With Owen Frank In the head position the team, by means of wonderful work on tho part of each individual man, suc ceeded In being beaten but once that by Minnesota and tied but once, and in finally pulling down tho Missouri valley championship In basketball. In track she haB succeeded In de feating MinneBota. but, as a result of several unfortunate accidents or ail ments befalling tho men on tho road, she lost to Kansas. With ample op portunity still opon In tho soason, tho school's reputation, uphold so ably horetoforo, is in little danger of bolng lowered by any futuro defeats as tho toam Is bolng consistently coached and gaining Increasing Btrongth as tho senson advancos. While, without a doubt, the general efficiency of a university cannot bo measured by Hb athletic prowosB, It Is aafe to say thot tho athletic records of any institution aro very apt meas urements of tho strength and volume or its school spirit, and school Bplrit as ovldenced In tho various linos of ac flvlty Is the oBBcnco of Bchool life. With a school spirit that has succeed ed in placing Nebraska little bolow tho best bcIiooIb in tho country in ath letics during tho closing year, tho prospects of tho school are no longer a matter of speculation as to its fu turo capability for offering tho host opportunities for individual develop ment in both general education and school activities.

CO-EDS PROMINENT IN AFFAIRS AT THE UNIVERSITY Since last fall, whon tho girls' root ing Bootion was inaugurated at tho football games, It has boon provon be yond a doubt that tho co-eds can play a largo rolo in University aotlvltlos. Many comments, which havo boon do cldrdly favorable, aro called dally to the attention of tho student body In regard to this section, and tho vaBt good it did, and will do at futuro gamoB. "Tho Trail," which Is anothor all L'nivcrsity event, is managed entirely by tho co-ods, and, It cannot bo said that It has over boon managed poorly. This Is ono of tho Boclal functions that 1b looked forward to by all tho stu dents, and is another afTalr whoro tho glrlB show that they play a largo part in school activities. Tho Y. W. C. A. is yet another foc tor of University life where tho co eds havo oxcIubIvo control; this, llko the rest, is nlwayB woll managed. There is no doubt but that tho Y. W. C A. does a largo amount of good, and for thlB tho co-eds aro entitled to all the laurels. The "Girls' Club," while only a ro cent organization, promises vaBt op portunities for tho co-eds to exert their ability In University afTalrs. ThiB club requires a comploto Bet of ofllcors and a board of control. These posi tions are already considered an honor to tho fortunate co-ed, and In timo they will prove even more so. Accordingly. It can easily he seen that the co-eds have a place in Uni versity affalrB, and a prominent one. Latin Club Banquets. Tiie Iitin Club gave their annual banquet last night at the Llndell hotel.
