THANK YOUI
We don't want to play tho big game
of the season in Omaha, anyway.
The action of the Missouri valley
representative yesterday, to the effect
that intercollegiate games should be
played only on college grounds, is
right In accord with what students
generally are thinking. And strange
as it may seem to the graduates,
students still want a hand in these
big games.
On the other hand, growl the alumni,
the students don't factor in the finan
cial support of the team. So be it.
But they constitute the teams. And
furthermore, we like to see the alumni
back on the campus once in a while.
If they won't come back for alumni
exercises in the spring, they will at
least return In swarms for the big
games. For their other games, let
them hire their professional teams
and play on their country club
grounds. But they will find that the
dances, either in the manner or the
Btyle of dancing, are not to be toler
ated. Chaperones have not been fully
aware of their rights and powers, It
is said, so that violations of some
of the dancing rules have occurred.
As has been said before, the solution
of the whole (lancing problem one of
the biggest problems which students
have to deal with rests with them.
If they abuse the confidence of the
committee, liberities will not be free
ly offered again.
But still, It Is too early to start op
position to the action of the council.
A number of elements enter into the
dancing situation at a large Institution
which can not be settled summarily,
and the situation is now in an ex
perimental stage, testing what shall
be the best way to finally settle the
question. Thus far In the experiment,
not a sufficient amount of data can
have been gathered to base tenable
objections to the ruling. Public state
ments have been made recently, scor
ing the prest nt social conditions and
calling for re-adJustmcntR. Inasmuch
as the university is a state plaything,
its actions will always be subject to
public criticism. But criticism on a
dancing situation which is but four
days old Is premature. When suf
ficient time has been given in which
student sentiment can mold itself on
this new subject, then it will be time
for the critics to appear.
NOW is the time for students to
act. If they are far-sighted, a sound
policy can be established which will
have the hearty aproval of the fac
ulty and the constituents of the univer
sity. And the dance question will
not exist. Organizations representing
the student body should take a stand,
and others will follaw suit.
The Nebraskan stands for a correct
rendition of the dances, whatever they
are to be. Either that, or back to the
waltz and two-step.
IN REMEMBRANCE.
The Dally Nebraskan staff wishes to
extend a fraternal sympathy to T.
Earle Keefer in the recent loss of his
father, who died suddenly at his home
in Council Bluffs Sunday morning.
