THE FUNCTION OF tV)E COLLEGE
PAPER
The college paper Is one of the
foremost evidences of university life.
In its pages is found the history of
the college life as it is written from
day to day, or from week to week.
As the official student publication,
it is intended, first of all, for the un
dergraduate body, ft records 6tiv
dent interest, and its columns are
written by students. Here students'
opinion finds a medium for expression;
here the forces of influence may be
brought to bear most strongly. Ev
ery legitimate activity of college life
has a right to its space.
The college paper is the direct con
nection between the student body and
the faculty and administration of the
institution. Faculty interests and
student interests are linked together
In the common bond of collegiate
work. The success of the professor
in the chair, and of the classmen in
front of him finds a union in its pages.
Back of the student body and the
faculty stands the great body of
alumni, who have gone out from the
institution. Their interestS and en
thusiasm find strength and stimula
tion ni the activity and progress of
tualr :

bring improvement.
Beyond these jcflassesi .'which the
publication reaches there is another
not less important. To numerous col
leges thruout' the land the sheet goes
with its measure of good report or
bad. In the editorial columns of col
lege papers in Maine and in California,
opinions of the institution from which
a particular exchange comes are be
ing formed. The university and col
legiate system of the whole land is
bound together thru the medium of
the college press. Missouri Miner.
call at this time; It U the duty of
every other student to help get these
men out.
In the practices to date some excel
lent material has shown up but every
position on the team is still open.
Coach Kline has made the definite
announcement that every candidate
who reports either for the practice
Friday afternoon or Saturday morn
ing will receive individual attention
and Will be given a fair tryout in his
position.
Although Nebraska's schedule may
be disorganized and long Mps aban
doned, a full season with S. A. T. C.
unite of neighboring universities
seems assured. The official name of
the team may be the S. A. T. C.
eleven, but to Nebraskans It will be
the "Cornhuskers" and the long rec
ord of victories must be added those
of another year.
SERIOUS TRAIN
ING FOR WAR TO BE
CONFINED TO MEN
'College life this year will .be a
changed college life owing to the es
tablishment of the students' army
training corps. A decided military
air will be imparted to every one of
the colleges and universities with
which the government has made con
tracts. All the men will be in uni
form and in most cases will live in
barracks. Over these students will be
army officers, and the course of study
will be arranged at the suggestion of
the govenremnt so as to be to the
greatest advantage to the student sol
dier. This change will not only effect the
men, but the women, as well. College
life will take on a more serious at
mosphere. For as the men will be
under strict military rule, so in a
measure will be the women who are
attending school. The sight of so
many uniformed men studying and
drilling for stern business will urge
the co-eds to forget frivolities of past
eyars.

COACH KLINE'S APPEAL
Every loyal Cornhusker should take
time to consider Nebraska's football
prospects. Every student in the Uni
versity should know the situation
which is confronting the Nebraska
coach at this time and resolve at
once to give his support to the prid
iron sport in some fashion-or other.
Every Btudent cannot fight on the
field or even land a position as sub
stitute, but every student can, by
giving his support to the coach and
the team, figure largely in the suc
cess of the Beason.
With the Iowa battle only two
weeks away, only united support of
the entire student body fvill make pos
sible a Nebraska victory. The Corn
huskers, with only five "N" men back,
arc facing a situation that has never
been faced before in Nebraska football
history. It is the duty of every man
in the University; eligible for the
varsity, to respond to Coach Kline's
iin- nun un uytir

save every person abroad. When her
mail was fished up and delivered the
pieces were stamped with a state

wreck, the first Instance of a prac
tice which is now employed by di
rection of the International Postal
Union. The credit for this simple de
vice is zelieved to be due to Edward
M. Morgan, at that time in a subor
dinate position in the New York
post office who foresaw that a few
minutes' work with a rubber stamp
would forestall an infinitude of complaint.
