way, we may achieve progress anil
we are led ou to greatness.
It should never be our hope to
arrive at the top, to be leaders or
great persons in leaps and bounds,
and unless we are really deserving oi
this recognition. If our progress Is
slow but sure, by the time we have
reached the pinnacle, those who have
been there before have made room for
as, we find, and the foundation upon
which we were climbing is built so
curely. And when we do reach this
pinnacle, we should remember that
there are others who are still follow
ing the trial we have left behind.
Now we must make room for them.

IS SPORTSMANSHIP A
VIRTUE?
LOST
IN
SUPPORT OF NEBRASKA
"GRADS."
Recent happenings in classrooms at
the University seem to indicate that
sportsmanship is a lost virtue at Ne
braskathat this word has been
erased from the dictionary of what
constitutes the qualications of a good
student. "Cribbing" on every hand
inevery examination is a guide-post
which shows that the morale of Corn
husktr students is low when it comes
to playing "fair" in the tests of knowl
edge. In the good old days down South a
man's chivalry demanded that honor
be uphe ldin examinations. Otherwise
he was ostracized by his fellow stu
dents and was immediately given hi3
"walking paper" by the Dean of his
college. Unhappily, even this condi
tion has passed in the South and
"cribbing" there is as much in evi
dence as it is in the North the Kast
and the West. The. schools of tin?
entire country seem to be composed of
students who have forgotten that the
word "sportsmanship" is valuable in
the making of character. They all
"crib" and do so without a twitch of
the conscience, as if it were a mark
of cleverness to be able to "get by"
with it.
It is impossible and almost fruit
less to try to legislate the morals of
students as it is to dictate what the
people in every walk of life should do
on Sunday. People like to be their
own masters. The Honor System has
proved inefficient and was rejected at
Nebraska last year because students
did not wish to be tried for their lack
of sportsmanship before a tribunal of
fellow students.
This week until Friday Nebraska i.s
lending support to two of her grad
uates who are doing a splendid work
among foreign peoples. Grace Cop
pock, '0.r, is now the Y. W. C. A.
national executive of China, and her
work among the women of that coun
Jry has been monumental. Especially
valuable has been her work since the
recent famine. Steele Holcombe, '17,
is working among the students of
Kgypt and is helping them to get a
truer conception of Christianity.
In order that hese workers can
"carry on," they must have money for
their maintenance.
The University started supporting
Miss Coppock in 1914, when $350 was
raised. This year the goal in each
campaign is set at $1,700. These cam
paigns need your support. If their
goals are reached the name of Ne
braska University will continue to
shine even acros the seas.
TRACK TICKETS.
The season track ticket sale will
take on a new angle this morning
with the challenge of the Track Star3
to the girls of the Universtiy. The
invitation is a unique one. The hosts
make one stipulation. Each man
asks of his guest only that she should
be one of the ten best boosters in
school that she shall be one of the
ten best ticket sellers in the Univer
sity. On the face of it this proposition
looks rather cold clooded, in fact
mercenary. As a matter of fact
However, if such conditions could be I r,eore A(,e wo,,M doubtless class
these track stars as "wise birds."
remedied at Nebraska it would be a
"feather in her hat." This plan al
though meager could probably be
worked out.
Why would it not be possible for
the members of every fraternity,
sorority, literary society, and all other
University organizations to pledge
themselves to begin a war on "crib
bing," to the extent that it would be
come an unpopular indoor sport at
Nebraska? Why would it not be
feasible to ask that each instructor
make It a personal matter with each
student and ask each class member to
ride through their examinations on
honor alone? If it is made an indi
vidual reponsibility and duty to each
me not to "cribb," this campus evil
will be eradicated and the word
"sportsmanship" will again return to
our dictionary of personality.
FOLLOWERS ARE NEEDED, TOO.
Life is an endless procession of per
sons In every stage of the climb to
success. Let us not try to alter this
orderly sequence by trying to displace
others from their position. Let us
rather accept things as they come,
make the best of life as we find it, and
thus prepare ourselves for things to
come.
"We cannot all be great! Greatness
is a matter of relativity. There must
be followers as well as leaders. So
why not be happy In the position we
hold? Growth comes only with time
it Is found by discharging faith
fully our duties to the best of our
ability from time to time and getting
the fullness of life thereby. In this
Without question, the hosts made a
very wise offer. In all probability they
will be entertaining next Tuesday
night ten of the most popular girls in
the University. It takes a real girl in
every way to win out In such a challenge.
