THE FIGHT OF THE CORNHUSKER.
Nebraska, athough outplayed by Notre Dame, was not outfought.
It will be many a year betore the Notre Daine game of 1920 will be
forgotten, for Nebraska field has never seen so fierce a struggle nor
so fine a showing of Cornhusker fight.
The spirit of the Husker team was "fight" from start to finisn.
as was displayed by the fact that they held the powerful Irish"
back field for seven downs on the one yard line in the second quarter
and for five downs in the third quarter.
The spirit of the student body was great during the first half, but
it diminished when defeat semed a certainty. The team is not
dependent upon your help when they are winning, but cheering does
encourage them to give a little more than their best when the Corn
husker goal is in danger.
Now is no time for crabbing, give the members of the team and
Coach Schulte your encouragement. That Nebraska lost is of small
importance compared to the fact that she outfought a great opponent.
SPORTSMANSHIP AT OLYMPICS.
The Freshmen and Sophomores are to be congratulated upon the
good sportsmanship they displayed before the Olympics and at the
Olympics. "Good sportsmanship" means to play the game within the
rules; to be able to play hard and yet to take defeat gracefully; to be
just and square; to be kindly to a defeated enemy and gracious to a
victorious one. In short, "good sportsmanship" almost comprises the
whole moral code with the spirit of courtesy and politeness thrown in.
Since that memorable day in 190$ on which the Olympics origi
nated, each year has produced its annual Freshman-Sophomore battle.
And every year each side, whether victorious or not, has come
through it more firmly welded together in Nebraska spirit and
tradition.
The Olympics satisfy the "spirit of combat" and also take the
place of "class scraps." They are of necessity "rough." but the rough
ness is predominately within the rules and spirit of "good sportsman
ship." The fact that they have fu'.SKed their mission is evidenced by she
reason that this year there were no sporadic or unpopular outbreaks.
This feature alone, that indicates a tendency toward the cultivation of
"good sportsmanship" speaks well for the tradition.
Furthermore, these battles brir.g into notice Freshmen athletic
material which otherwise might of escaped unnoticed. And lastly the
Olympics tend to bind the undeielasse into a closer relation with Ne
braska University, its spirit and traditions.
BETTING ON THE GAMES.
The recent gambling scandal which has struck organized baseball
and which has tainted and may eliminate professional ball from the
field of American sport. should be a warning to college football fol
lowers to do away with their ba ting, lest they destroy the game of all
college games. As long as college students continue the present sys
tem of betting the dancer will be present. Some day. someone is
bound to succumb to the same temptations which resulted in the dis
grace of Williams and Cicotte and their team mates and be found out.
If that day comes, it will be the downfall of football, and the only
Possible way of preventing its happening is to do away with belting.
There ate other and greater reasons why waeering on inter
cc'iegiate games ought to be a thing of tie past and wagering by stu
dents is a direct blow to college spirit. Naturally the individual with
money on the game sees it with his pocketbook uppermost in his
thoughts. Then, too, there is tie hypocrite which waeers on the
oppos ing team and who does cot cheer for his Alma Mater.
It would be a compliment to Nebraska University and to the stu
dent body if we could cast out once for all the sordid money element
in football, and if every Cornhusker would work together for the team
aid University without tiought of individual fortunes.

MASTER YOURSELF FIRST.
Every straight-thinking man and woman must admit that there
ax certain personal attributes which we must develop if we are to
be tuccessful in any occupation.
If we are not getting ahead, if we are not getting all that we are
entitled to in life, we may righ'Jy lay most of the blame at our own
door. Our mental power plant Is not runnine at its highest efficiency;
it is not producing the quality and quantity of thought output that
wins. It is not that we are incapable of doine as well as the next
man for all normal men are bom with practically tie same mental
machinery tie Jault lies in not developine and exercising tried and
true mental processes. It i just as axiomatic today as ever a man
can be almost what he wi"s to be.
If yen hope to achieve eminence in any occupation, you must learn
