Nebraska Is dealing with the problems
of student and campus life which ou
met, and we believe that progress is
being made with each year
Certain it is that a change is being
made, as the oldtimers will witness
Athletics still remain the all rniversitv
point ol inteiest. but for the oldtiine
1 1 ee-for-alls, at which the police were
Ireinient attendants, we hae made no
Mibstitute You will note that our class
elections are strictly businesslike al
lairs, and the class meeting ol past
years has given way to committee work
subject to the direction of the Austral
ian elected president Class hops, last
ear ami for several years preceding,
have been rather pretentious affairs
compared with the simpler dances
given some ten or twelve years ago
s a result, class hops this year are a
debatable ipianlitv The mailer ol
finances has been more than the stu

Hut the most important change is
taking place in the ranks of the alumni
The organizational)!' this force of citi
zens has been vrorking itself out in
various ways, and -All the while a
greater unity has been secured This
eflecting an organization is no small
task, and each year it seems to the
students on the campus that some new
step has been taken And each year
the organization is assuming more
force The Cniversitv is fully appre
ciative ol the work attempted by its
alumni, leellng that the future of the
institution is sale m their hands
SPORTSMANSHIP.
Just u word for the benollt of those
now Btudents who may not yet be
aware of the standard of Nebraska
HportHmanBhip Wo meet a great foe
today, and in tho excitoment of the
game it Ir pofiBlblo that nomo will
allow their enthuslanm to overrule
their good sense Speaking plainly,
that form of spirit which consists in
berating I he umpire or field Judge, in
"knocking" their decisions, will not
be tolerated on Nebraska Field. Scat
tered Individuals, townspeople, or small
bojs may go the limit of the umpire's
patieiue. but for a Nebraska student
to outgrow his dignitj in this manner
there is no excuse It is improbable
that any such sentiment will be ex
pressed, but in ase a situation should
arise, lorget it and get down to good,
healthy tooting which will be more
efllclent in everv vvav
