THE GREATEST TOURNAMENT
One hundred and twenty-one high schools have announced
themselves as contenders for honors in the ninth annual, and great
est high school tournament yet held at Nebraska. Last year previ
ous records were broken with an entry list of one hundred and
seventeen. Each year additional towns over the State become am
bitious and decide that they will put their borough on the map of
the basketball world. Within a very few years there will not be a
town in the State capable of producing five men for a team, that
will not be represented at the tourney.
The men out-state look forward the whole year, to the time
when they will come to Lincoln to participate in the Big Event.
The tournament is the great experience of the year. Plans are laid
at the beginning of the year for making a prize-winning team. Most
of the small towns take no interest in football, and consequently
spend all their efforts and time in perfecting a basketball machine.
Men know that Varsity men will be on the lookout for exceptional
players. Consequently they come prepared to show the best that
is in them, and the games give exhibition of the best ability in the
State.
The high school students expect to receive cordial treatment
during their stay in Lincoln. If they do not receive a warm recep
tion they will go away from the University with a feeling that they
are not wanted here, and that they would never be able to feel at
home at our institution. Every effort must be put forth during the
tournament to give the visitors an enjoyable week-end. We must
make realization even better than anticipation. The boys should
go home with the determination to return to the University when
they finish high school. Nebraska must be the only school that
enters their mind. We cannot afford to lose our raw material to
Kansas, Iowa, or any neighboring school. The impression we make
on the high school athletes will be a determining factor in the
future success of our ahtletic teams. The "N" should be made the
ideal of every high school athlete.
WISE SPENDING
Are you a wise spender? Wise spending is regarded as a
highly important preliminary to thrift by the U. S. Treasury. As
part of lis campaign for promoting popular savings through Thrift
and War Savings Stamps during 1919, it has issued through its
Savings Division the following pdSaition of wise trending, which
merits the thoughtful amQZ of &very family and every ind;
yiilual who. would - . v j , r .
' lu"1 et ahead in life:
"Wise spending implies the balancing of all needs and of all
m-ans of meeting these needs and, after balancing needs against
means, spending ui such a way as to meet the most urgent needs,
even if lesser ones have to be left unsatisfied; in essence it means
a sou of budget-making. When a family, city or state makes a
budget, what it does essentially is to take a comprehensive view
of both needs and income. It is important that not all the income
be spent on the first needs that may occur lost other more urgent
needs appear and no funds be left to meet them; that is, thought
must be taken so that available income can be applied intelligently
and wisely to cover most important needs and to satisfy them some
what in proportion to their relative importance.
"Perhaps the most important and difficult problem in connec
tion with wise spending (or saving) is to realize the relative im
portance of future as compared with present needs. It is very
foolish to neglect the urgent necessities of today for the petty
wants of the morrow, but few need very much persuasion to induce
them to take care of the present. Where most of us are foolish or
unwise is in satisfying petty wants of the present rather than sav
ing in order that urgent needs of the future can be met." Indus
trial Collegian.
SILVER CHEVRONS
The papers have had a prolonged case of fidgets over the silver
chevrons issued recently to service men whose duty was done in
this country and not abroad. It comes back to whether the public
has any real Idea of what the stay-at-homes did. The information
has been rather amply spread abroad, but, of course, it may not
have soaked in. This may or may not prove to be the last war of
our times. If it is, then the service men stationed here made pos
sible our share in winning it, and are entitled to all the credit that
goes to the devisers of far-flung plans and to the builders of strong
foundations. If it ia not, then the service men on this side of the
Atlantic have fortified us for years to come against the danger of
being unable to play our part effectively in the next war. Thanks
to them, we now know exactly how to plan, locate, and build any
sort of military establishment from an airplane factory to a school
for army cooks; how to estimate for, buy, make and move each and
all of the 100,000 or 200,000 separate sorts of things that a modern
army has to move; bow to raise and handle men, and so on, and
so on. The mind reels In trying to imagine the vast masses of
typewritten memoranda, photographs, blue prints, and other docu-
