The attendance at the Gymnastic
Meet was an unpleasant reflection
upon our school. We muster a nine
thousand crowd at a football game
where only twenty-two men take part
and when when we have a big meet
o which the large universities of the
West send from ten to fifteen men to
participate we turn out a crowd that
wouldn't do justice to a good dog
fight. There is something vitally
wrong with the sporting spirit at Ne
braska. Just what the difficulty is,
it is hard to determine. But it would
seem that there is a tendency to sup
port football to the exclusion of other
f ports. Football is rightly the lead
ing sport and probably always will be.
It deserves the support and attention
it now receives. But the men who
attain proficiency on other lines are
as deserving of attention, advertise
ment and support as are the men in
football.
Football should be supported, but
because it is the big sport and is the
best from the commercial standpoint
is no reason that everybody should
lay down on the job as soon as that
season is over. We need a spirit at
Nebraska that recognizes mental,
moral, and physical development
wherever it is found and encourages
such development by its support.

Hot Off the Bat
One of the interesting events hap
pening on the trip of the Road Show
was a game of basket ball between the
Osceola High School "and members of
the troupe. The line-up was as fol
lows: Phil Warner, "stationary for
ward; Phil Southwick. "stationary
forward also; Jimmy Allison, "station
ary ' center; Ralph Nonhrup. "station
ary' guard; Dick Rutherford, "run
ning" guard. When four of the Osceola
men were keeping "Dick" down, the
other four troupers would try to keep
the ball away from the rest of the
Osceola team. Phil Warner retired
early in the first half with a scratched
Bhoulder but returned to his "station
ary guard later m me game, rouis
were constantly called upon Mr. Nonh
rup because be would insist upon
throwing his arms around his oppon
ent's and crying. "Give her to me.
give her to me." The exact score,
because of Inefficiency of office equip
ment of the high school, is not ex
actly known.

Faculty Men With Guilty Consciences
Please Step Forward
In a recent issue of the Tribune,
under the caption of "Little Aids for
Cupid," appeared the following letter
and answer. It is just a little too
good for the college public to miss
iltogether. The letter follows as it
vas published:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
"I am a freshman University stu
dent and have become quite friendly
itb one of my younger unmarried in
structors. I am a member of a good
sorority and said to be popular. He
is quite handsome and of good family.
During the winter he has called on me
rather often. Is it proper to receive
his attentions? Do you think I ought
to consult my parents before I be
come more friendly? My friend did
not give me very high marks on the
recent examination, but that may have
been simply because he did not care
to show partiality and he has not
ben less Intimate and cordial hiuce.
"BRIGHT EYES."
The following is the answer:
"So far as I know it is all right for
you to accept his attentions. How
ever. I hardlv think I would go with
him to the exclusion of all others until
he bad declared himself. He is wise
to keep the personal element out of
school relations. As to taking your
parents into your confidence, that is
always a wise plan." Minnesota

SPRING ATHLETICS
OFF AT FULL SWING.
Five Baseball Team Are Being
ganlzed In Various Colleges
Track and Football Progress
Now that the spring weather baa
opened up spring activities are getting
into full swing. Our track team Is fast
geting into shape, spring football prac
tice is well under way and the base
ball teams are being organized.
- A meeting was held in the Law Col
lege this morning organizing their
team. Vic Halligan has charge of the
law team and is fast getting their ma
terial together to get them out for
practice.
The Arts and Science College will
form two teams, one team for Fresh
men only and one for the upper class
men. Those wishing to join one of
these teams are expecting a meeting in
the near future and look forward to
organizations that will be winners.
Those in the Engineering College
are singling out their good material
and will form their team in the near
future. The engineers seem to have
some good men. One imagines an en
gineer as figuring out some clever
work it might be well for the other
teams to watch them closely.
The Agricultural College is forming
a team and if they have any of the
material left from last year's team it
will be a good one.
There will be but five teams organ
ized this year assuring plenty of good
material for each team and some cor
respondingly good and interesting
games. Each team will play every
other team two games making eight
games in all. The first game will be
scheduled soon in order that the last
matches will be played off in four or
five weeks time.
Spring is here and all the "pep"
that goes with it. Interest is being
taken in baseball in general, the boys
are getting a line-up on the big league
teams and are themselves getting into
form. What can you do for your col
lege team?
