THE WAR ON EXTRAVAGANCE.
Liist week vve waged vv.it against eiiaaganl activities We also com
'nailed the in esponsible ami etinv,ij,ant management of aduities We did
it bv deinnding the ansvvets to spi cilic (iiestions put the maiiageis of tin
Nebraska Cotillion and the recent Junior Plav. We haw not vet leceiwd
the explanations we requite Neither has a pronounced public opinion de
mamled that these explanations be made In slioit, our campaign against
extravagance has thus lar Tailed to get lesults
Those tesponsible for the late exl I a ag.ince.s have evtdentlv eaded then
duty to e)lam The hae attacked the motives which induce us to de
mand the explanation They hae charged us with witting a peisonal spleen
against them lor their lailuie to ' deliwi the goods" politically They have
made arious seciet assaults upon such leputation as vve ma possess ,,nd
wind of it has often t cached our eats We do not care to discuss the t tilth
of falsity of their charges. Whether our motives are good or bad. whether
we ate honest men or knaves, whether we have reputation or onlv notonetv,
their dutv to explain to the University how thev failed to make I'nivetsitv
activities pay out remains the same. We must have their explanations, be
cause it is only by their expert help that we can remove the causes oT extrav
agance and waste
We do not challenge their honesty Their liitegrltv. we conceded is
spotless. All we want to know is the facts about their evident tailure to
make (he activities pay out. We want to hear these facts from them, not
for our own satisfaction, but for the use of the University in their effort to
live within their Income. As for us, we already know the facts The Uni
wrsity should be given the opportunity of knowing these Tacts first hand
For this reason, before telling what we know, we are patiently waiting
for the managers of the Cotillion and the Junior Play to cease their sullen
hedging and come out with a frank, open, honest statement of just how
and why the activities with the management of which they were charged
failed
Whether we succeed in getting the facts or not depends largely on the
support that student opinion gives us. So far only the Junior Law class has
seen lit to publicly announce the extravagant acts of their unauthorized
agents So, Mr. Student, it is squared up to von whether a successful war
fare against high-priced amusements that von can't afford to attend, but must
pay for, shall be waged
SPRIG HAB CUB.
Sprig hiib cub' Witness the fair tusseis on the library steps and llartv
nith the new grey suit. Doctor Maxey delivers his annual declamation on
the evils of spttng fever, Professor Fossler curses "bench" work, and Dean
Wolcott offers a prize for the first robin. Even the general trend of popular
ragtime turns to thoughts of Springtime. If you do not believe listen at
the Pi Phi windows while the fair ones warble "And the Green Grass Grew
All Around " Father is swearing silently, always silently, at the influx of
bills, while sonny borrows a nickel from his frat brother and begins hunting
for a next summer's job.
