For This Issue
WHAT DOES THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA NEED?
Suggestions by friends of the University of Minnesota of ways
and means by which it may not only hold its place among educational
centers of the country, but becomes steadily greater in standing,
influence and results are being brought out in a series of articles
being published by the Minneapolis Journal.
An alumnus of the university who sinco his graduation has acted
ij the capacity of registrar, secretary of the alumni association, and
editor of the alumni weekly has contributed several suggestions.
"Discover our own big men," is his first proposal. Other insti
tutions come to Minnesota for their big men, and Minnesota in turn
fills their places by getting big men from other schools. He con
demns the situation which prevents the promotion of members of
the teaching staff to department heads or deans.
The correction of this situation would, he believes, create a
different spirit in the faculty, a more ardent loyalty to the institution,
which would be reflected in the spirit of the student body. In addi
tion, the school could hold its men better, for the offer of an in
crease of a few dollars from another institution would not bo so at
tractive to a man when he feels he has a good chance of advance
ment at his own school.
That the board of regents is too conservative in its estimates and
i.i making requests from the legislature is another recommendation
uifer ;: The estimates have never caught up with the school's
In- ' 'H,
.v tlon fees, but rather appropriations on a sliding scale, with
additional allowances for every 100 students added to the enroll
ment. "The junior college idea has to come." It is his opinion that it
would help the smaller colleges, relieving them of the first two
years' work so they could take better care of students in the junior
and senior years.
Although the university needs more buildings, its need for men
is greater, he said, emphasiznig the first suggestion offered.
Nebraska's situation is similar to that of her colleague of the
middle west. Her development and her needs are similar. Sugges
tions applying to the one great state co-educational institution might
well be considered in respect to the other.
"The men are bright, but the women are brighter." This state
ment appeared recently in an article in the Saturday Evening Post,
written by an Englishman who had spent some time in the United
States. Such an observation on the part of an unbiased foreigner
in at least interesting.
WRITING ABOUT WOMEN
Arnold Bennett Is writing on women. In his article in this
month's Harper's Bazar he says the subject is dangerous. It is. But
only In case the writer becomes complimentary.
"They say we are toys," remarks Hetty in H. G. "Wells' "Ann
Veronica." "But we aren't even toys. We're only litter. Men think
of us as something which is in their way." That was ten years ago.
The higher criticism of women has made great strides in ten years.
But It remains true that what woman principally longs for It to have
some notice taken of her.
This 1b not by way of advice to swear at your wife. The in
dividual woman's instincts are survivals of the age of chivalry. She
wants to be treated as well as she deserves, which is, as usual, just
a little better than she is treated. She likes compliments, and candy,
and courtesy. To differ with a lady is still very frequently regarded
as an insult to her appearance.
But women, In the mass, have no such point of view. They do
not ask for roses, but for bread. They are tired of being told to run
and play. They point out the fact that to withdraw women
from industry today would be to wreck the country; to withdraw
rmen from teaching would be to damn the rising generation; to
withdraw women from politics would be less conceivable even than
from the other two.
Women today are the greatest advertisers in the world. They
the keenest searchers for the truth. With a profound belief in
their own capabilities, they unite the knowledge that only by adver
t ent can these capabilities ever come to be taken for granted.
AmTthat's what woman, as distinguished from individual women,
wanU-to be taken for granted.
So she welcomes everything said about her, good, bad and In-
nt. Somebody asked the poet Keats how he felt about a savage
kTk which Blackwood's Magazine had made on his poetry. "Fine!"
tnered the poet. "I don't care what they say, so long as they say
nMETHlNG." Keats was a great poet, but he was also a keen little
psychologist. And woman today is unconsciously adopting Keats'
theory.

COYOTES COMING
FOR BIG BATTLE
to the Cornhusker team, while Smith,
Russell, Bekins, Bailey and Paynter
each located the hoop for one basket.
Patty and Jungmeyer each threw three
goals. Colorado assembled seven field
goals and three four goals on which
basis Nebraska was the victor, 24 to
17.
Should Have Made Clean Sweep
While not seeking to discredit the
success of Colorado college in win
ning the second game of the series
at Colorado Springs, Coach Schissler
asserts that a Nebraska slump, mixed
with overconfidence, prevented the
Cornhuskers from making a clean
sweep of their four games on Colorado
courts. Easy chances for a long
string of field and foul goals were
tossed away by the Cornhuskers, says
their coach, who claims that the Ne
braska team had frequent opportunities
to pile up even bigger margin than in
the first game, whereas the Huskers
were nosed out by only two points.
Colorado College, which won one
of the two games from the Huskers,
will send its team to Lincoln during
state high school tournament week
for two court contests with the
Schissler crew. The Nebraska coach
had been planning to bring a "Big Ten
team to the Cornhusker camp as a
tournament week attraction, but he
switched to the Colorado Springs
Tigers when they gave the Huskers
such stiff opposition last week. Par
sons, a former football end and basket
ball player at the University of Iowa,
Is coaching the Colorado College
squad and the Nebraskans agree that
his proteges are playing fine basketball.
