HERBERT BROWNELL, JR.
It's comng Friday evening the first football rally of the year.
The ability to talk fluently and think logically while addressing
an audience is a great asset in other walks of life it is a talent
which every leader of men must possess.
RECORD PACE IS SET.
The 1920 football sales campaign dashed off at a record pace
the first day and we revel at the keen rivalry and enthusiasm which
the many organizations are displaying in their fight for first place.
Organizations don't let your enthusiasm die down! Never be
discouraged. Stick to the job and carry the contest to a successful
close. The winners in every race are the dependable individuals
which battle to the last ditch.
Above all, if there are any solicitors who do not have the time
or Inclination to continue selling urge some other classmate to carry
on your work before you quit. Nebraska is looking to the combined
power of the fraternities and organizations to drive the campaign
past the high standards set and it is therefore imperative that the
working force of every organization be kept intact.
The Daily Nebraskan believes that every loyal Husker who thinks
the matter over thoroughly wll purchase a ticket if he is financially
able. It is certain that every student will have the opportunity to
purchase a ticket a good many times before the campaign ends. It is
also absolutely true that every Nebraskan i3 financially able to invest
in a season's pass, because the Athletic Department has offered to
sell tickets to deservnig students for their personal notes. So the
man or woman that says, "I can't afford it," means that he is not
interested in Nebraska athletics. Where do YOU stand?
NEBRASKA'S GREATEST ASSET.
"Nebraska's greatest asset is her men and women of high char
acter." In our University we are trying to build men and women
who will be an asset to the state. This is the primary motive of
the institution. There are many things involved In the graduating
of such students. They must be physically, mentally ind morally
strong. Our great school has made preparation for the first two
factors. With Mr. Luehring here ami the added impetus to athletics,
which this will bring, our graduating students will be physically
strong. The fine new buildings and splendid equipment offer educa
tional facilities that are second to none in the west and should make
Nebraska men and women strong intellectually. There is Just one
more touch in the building of character and this is more important
than the other two combined. It is the spiritual, altruistic touch. We
dare not turn out students developed along physical and intellectual
lines but without the spiritual training. The strengthening or this
third side of a man's nature determines whether a man shall be an
asset or a liability to his state. The Unified Christian Program being
promoted by the Committee of Two Hundred is the thng that will
build into the character of Nebraska students this third and most
important ingredient. Can any loyal Nebraskan fail to support
liberally such a worthy project?
THOSE INCIDENTAL FEES.
The incidental fee of ten dollars which each student paid when
he or she registered this fall is twice as much as the fee of previous
years. This has caused some comment among the upperclassmen
but those who will think the thing out carefully will see that the five
dollar raise was quite Justifiable.
To begin with, the overhead expense of the University has In
creased from fifty to three hundred per cent In the past few years.
Coal now costs two hundred per cent more than a few years ago.
Labor has Increased the same, books cost from fifty to one hundred
per cent more, and the faculty increase of forty per cent, which is
by no means the end of increased pay for faculty members, bes
necessitated an increase in every bit of revenue which the University
receives.
It h estimated that the cost per student for one year at the Uni
versity is almost $300. This is paid by the state. If the incidental
fees were to cover the individual expense of each student the fee
would amount to a stiff tuition. The fact that this Is a state in
, stitution throws the burden of expense upon the state and relieves
the student of the tuition which denominational and private institu
tions require for their support
But even the extra five dollars, which each student pays, does not
- bring the income from fees 'p to the place where they will go as
far as the five dollar fee did a few years ago.
