WILSON'S MESSAGE
The president's note to Germany is
a clear, concise statement of the atti
tude of the United States in the pres
ent crisis. Believing that most stu
dents are interested in the situation
will be anxious to read this carefully
and diplomatically worded message we
are printing the complete text today.
A CAMPUS CONCERT
The Band and the Cornhusker Quar
tette had an important part in making
the Ivy Day program a success. These
two organizations fill a place in our
school life that we hardly appreciate.
The" Band has been so faithful on all
important occasions this year that we
seem to take it as a matter of course
that they will be there. It would be
an excellent thing from every stand
point if we could have a few even
ing concerts on the campus from
seven until eight during the next three
weeks. These concerts would pro
duce evidence of the students' appre
ciation of the band and quartette
that would mean an immeasurable
strengthening of our school spirit.
nlto action was taken in this matter.
We need ten or, fifteen courts here.
There is little doubt that hundreds of
our students would become interested
in this great outdoor game if they had
any place to play. As preparations
are being made for extending the
campus, now is the time to press our
demands for more tennis courts. True
we can't get them this year, but pro
visions can be made for permanent
courts so that next fall they will be
ready. We have talked long enough.
We need to do something. If you are
sincere in your desire for better ten
nis facilities, you are going to be
given the chance to help get them.
A petition to the Board of Regents
will be circulated tomorrow asking
them to take action on this matter.
If some one doesn't ask you to sign,
call at the Nebraskan office and sign
one there. But the only way to make
this thing count is for the students to
go at it as if they meant business.
We don't want thirty or forty names
on that petition we want a thousand.
Don't wait to have some one come
around and beg you to sign it. This
is a serious matter. Every man and
woman who believes in giving this
democratic game a chance at Ne
braska should give this movement
their unqualified support.

MORE TENNIS COURTS
Nebraska's showing In the tennis
meet was gratifying to all interested.
Considering the poor facilities for de
veloping players, it is remarkable that
our men run down to the finals in
both the singles and doubles. It is to
be regretted that when the opportun
ity came for Nebraska to entertain the
Missouri Valley Tennis Association it
waa necessary to have the games
played on the courts at the Country
Club. All the larger schools in the
middle west have from four to twenty
six courts, wbile Nebraska has but
two.
There has been agitation year after
year for more courts. Each year the
excuse has been that it is too late to
do anything more this year. This
spring the matter was brought before
the Athletic Board, but nothing has
been done. It is time that some defi-
