UNIVERSITY WEEK
Reports from the first western towns that are going to see the
University Week shows indicate that this year the reception given the
students will be even more cordial than it was last year and the year
before that, the two years that inaugurated what has now become a
permanent thing.
This simply means that University men and women who no out
to different parts of the state, conducting themselves as University
men and women, are bound to win the respect and friendship of the
peoples they visit.
The greatest good to the University that comes from the Univer
sity Week is not the demonstration of what is already well known
that there are students of the University who can play the trombone
or flute, sing, act, or otherwise amuse other people.
The good comes from the attitude of these students toward the
people they meet, and their conduct as they accept the hospitality of
the towns on the University week ciriuit.
Because this is true every student who goes out on the tour this
year, with his expenses paid, should go with a consciousness of his
responsibility toward his alma mater.
He should go, knowing that he is more than an individual, that he
is a representative of the institution that stands for the best things.
Realizing these things, the students will do as the students in the
two years before them have done, and Nebraska University will con
tinue to gain in the friendship and the confidence of the people of the
state.
THE LEGISLATORS AND THE UNIVERSITY
Members of the state legislature are going to visit the University
this afternoon from 4 to 6 oclock, on invitation of Chancellor Avery.
It is a most happy thing.
No business in the state of Nebraska is so large, so important to
the state, as is the University. Every session of the legislature is
featured by bills relating to the University, and often by attacks upon
it. This session has not been free from such attacks.
Therefore the University welcomes the legislators and hopes that
they will keep eyes wide open when they view the two campuses and
the students today.
The University hopes that the legislators will compare University
hall, the Administration building and the Armory with Bessey hall,
the new Chemistry building and the Dairy Husbandry building.
The University hopes that the legislators will fix a keen eye on
the cadets, looking closely for signs of "militarism," and deciding
whether it is not a fine ihing that these young men are preparing to
help defend their country if she needs them.
The University hopes that the legislators will ask about the work
of the efficiency agent, look into the finances and ask themselves if
the money that is spent here is no being most economically expended.
The University hopes that the legislators will try to get acquainted
with some of the students, and with many of the faculty, in order to
appreciate that the finest people of the state are found within the four
walls of Nebraska.
The University hopes that the legislators will get something of
the spirit for truth, the ideals for better living, the standards of
honesty, uprightness and fair dealing, the conception of the true mean
ing of life, that the University is helping its students get.
If these things are seen and understood, the visit of the legis
lators will be full of great possibilities for Nebraska.
FORUM
To the Editor of The Nebraskan:
It seems that for the past three or
four years a spirit of rowdyism has
prevailed in the gallery of the theatre
in which any University production
is being staged. In fact more than one
show or stunt has been very nearly
ruined by the action of four or five
over-pompous characters who take the
opportunity of going not to see the
show but to be the show. The peculiar
part of the Huole thing is that the two
or three hundred who go to see the
show and sit in the gallery remain
patiently by and allow the small hand
ful of "self imposed talent" to make
such a din that the lines of the real
show never reach them. Is it possible
that affairs have reached such a stage
at the University of Nebraska that a
small group of boisterous and repel
lant rowdies can overrun the whole
student body? Can't the majority of
the University people co-operate and
hereafier "clean up" the character of
our student public gatherings?

time. The fact that he did not work
under the eye of Coach Rutherford
until two days before the Ames meet
and has undergone practically his
whole development since that time,
speaks for the work of the coach as
well as for his own ability. In the
final bout, which he lost, Barnes put
up a fine fight, being pinned Just as
the time was about up.
Anderson, in winning third place in
his class had the pleasure of down
ing the Ames man who won the bout
from him in Lincoln. Fuchs won third
place by defeating a Chicago man on
a decision. This man had previously
downed Firkins, the Ames man who
was given, the decision over Fuchs
when they met.

on the team, lost on decisions In pre
