FRIDAY, SEI'TEMMER 2f,
THAT FRESHMAN RALLY.
The turnou.1 ot tieslunen men stu-
(lentH ;it the rallv esteida morning
was a woeful fane, to put it mildk
Out of :i registration ol about four
hundred men, a pitiable showing ol
twenty five was the ic-nlt of patient
advertising ol a rally which should!
have been of interest to all would-be
students And those twenty-live were
so deeply interested In what was on
the. program, so full ol pep and enthu
Miasm, that the anished in thin air
when the sound ol a drum was heard
outside the window Shades of our'
childhood days, when teacher used to'
let us out of school 1 the roomful to
see a parade go b ' I
And the bitter pill which accom
panies thin sad revelation of the fresh
men's lack of foresight shall we call
It? Is that the Bame thing might have
happened In tho case of some of the
upper chiRses. Last winter a meeting
of the Junior class was called to de
cide the very Important question of
whother the class would consider coin
Lining tho annual prom with that given
by tho seniors, and would assume its
sharo of the financial responsibility
There woro about twenty at tho meet
ing. It was ono of tho most Import
nnt questions which the class had had
to moot, and in the end it was not the
class as a whole, but tho few faithful
ones who made up the minds of the
class on tho question.
Wo may bewail the fact that our
class meetings are not well attended,
that tho responsibility falls upon tho
few, and that the many spend their
time in criticising tho decision made
by these fow, that rallies are not ral
lies but rather exclusive pink teas
but the fact remains that the crowd
will turn out for nothing short of a
football rally or an Impromptu class
scrap which is held on tho Bide or
roof of a building. ThlB Is the ago of
tho strenuous life, especially during
this rush week, and men and women
will fix their attention only upon thoBe
things which Beem to be of tho great
est Importance for the moment. Es
sential things wo do not recognize In
tho throng of everyday necessities,
and wo turn for relaxation to extremes.
At Nebraska we are dealing with a
problem which Is forced upon ub by
tho very size and location of tho
school If we were situated miles from
civilization, tho hub about which a
small town revolved, our thoughts
would center in tho campus itBelf.
s it is, tho campus is a small portion
of the business district of a city which
offers counter-attractions galore. Our
students are scattered within a radius
of three miles from the school, and
theie is no campus life, as it Is known
in a s( hool which centers a large part
of its life in the dormitories on or
near I lie campus. Consequently, wh"n
out ol classes, our inclinations do not
lead us to remain, unless the unusual
lur pens And the unusual can hardh !

Yet this does not excuse the fresh
men lor their slipup on yesterday's '
rally Freshmen entenng the Fniver '
Mt have a number ot things to learn,
and the purpose ol the iall wjis to1
give them first hand information, in
the hope that it would prove of assist-j
ance to them and would be the means I
of acquainting them with some old'
Nebraska traditions which it would be I
their duty in some later year to hand ,
down to the freshmen of their da '
Nebraska's unwritten laws are few,
but they are nevertheless important
