A The Cornhusker Maiwiuet is to
do honor to the football team and llir
record of the season. To bring out

Q.. -Wh. then, did the most notice
able i pres-iou of spnit of the ban
qnet Satunla night consist In a form
of lowdyism which took no stock in
the dignilled purpose ol the banquet?
A- llecause the men mis-interpreted
the purpose. Hecause they allowed
their conceptions ol a "good time" to
run riot, and (allied to an extreme
the 111 timed suggestions of a few. And
because the element of leadership
which necessarily belongs with affairs
of this kind was lacking.
One cannot help looking back on
the Cornhusker banquet without a va
riety of emotions. It was undeniably
a success from the standpoint of at
tendance, enthusiasm, menu, program,
and the more obvious elements of a
good banquet. Hut there was that in
the succebs which left a bitter taste,
and it was the rowdy element which
appeared tor a few minutes
An all-l'im ersity affair of Corn
husker Hanquct calibre is one ol the
most potent forces for raising or low
ering the mercury in the barometer of
Nebraska standing. Football victories,
debate results, student dramatics and
the control of organizations have their
influence. Hut the influence exerted
by this gathering of men, when marred
by such an evidence of common-ism
(not democracy), can put to naught
the helpful Influences of several other
forces.
The blame, should there be any, cnn
only be laid upon the Btudent con
sciousnessrather an Intangible thing.
There should be a student sentiment
which would voluntarily squelch false
spiiit There was such a sentiment In
the majority of cases, but the old case
of the minority overriding the majority
held good The banquet was a suc
cess because of the dual expression of
this real spirit. Mut unfortunately It
was a composite of good and bad
which was evolved. The real spirit
underl.ing the whole, and which must
exist it Cornhusker works are to en
dure the test of time, had to be de
duced fiom the mixture
