Freshmen Instills Cornhusker
Spirit and Pep.
INNOCENTS HAVE CHARGE
Engberg Luehring and McMasters
Urge Students to Get Out for
School and Class Activities.
Freshmen convocation for men at
the Armory, Thursday morning,
brought out a R0(lly number of the
green-topped yearlings to receive their
initiation into the Cornhusker spirit.
Selections from the band and cheer
ing led by Richards, Kimball and
Shoemaker started the meeting off
with enthusiasm.
Hugh Carson, representing the In
nocents, presided. He said that
there were enough school activities
for everyone and urged every fresh
man to enter some form of activity.
Dean Engberg, the first speaker of
the program, urged that the freshmen
adopt some regular program for study
ing and systemize their work in a
way to get the best resuits. The
non-fraternity men, he said, were al
lowing the fraternity men to excel
them in school activities and it was
time for the Barbarians to come up
and run the Greeks. He also pleaded
with the men to raise their standard
in scholarship so that it would be
better than that of the women. His
main point was that if every student
in the university would enter into
the school life and work that Nebras
ka would "take a place under the
sun."
Mr. Fred Leuhrmg, director of ath
letics, told the freshmen that they
would have to he a success in their
studies before they could take part in
inter-scholastic athletics. He said' that
there were game3 for every one, from
football, the greatest intercollegiate
snort, to wrestling and tennis. Ne
braska has a corps of coaches anl
instructors that are equal too any in
the United States. Over a hundred
freshmen reported for football prac
tice this fall and are learning the
fundamentals of the game under ef
ficient coaches. There were 250 men
out for track last spring, Mr. Leuh
ring s.iid, and it is the aim of the
athletic department to increase the
number to a thousand. Five hundred
men are needed for cross-country.
Kvery man. he stated, should go out
for one of the fighting sports, such
as football, basketball and wrestling
and work for a place on the team.
Mr. Mc.Mastf-rs, coach of the cross-
oun! ry squad w.i.4 the last speaker
if the meeting. lie told the freshmen
t ) engage in a'hlotlcs as a means of
feif-devpinpmcnt rnd self-confidence.

who should pay the tax.
Where the three per cent tax pro

consumer, Senator Lenroot said it
would add to the already heavy bur
dens of manufacturers now operat

ment to labor.
"Our tax laws," he said, "are bad
Muuigh now. Don't let us make them
worse by attempting to levy taxes,

May Have Army of
Cops to Weed Out
The Party Raiders
The season for fall parties is upon
us, and in this connection several
persons have been heard venting
their feelings against the small prac
tice of certain and sundry individ
uals, of attending these functions
without the required invitation. There
are those, who would post a squad
well armed with brass-toed shoes, at
the door to meet parasites; their
to inclulcate into their unwelcome
beings, with precise and energetic
-ccuracy, a respect for that time-
honored finer spirit of staying away
rom places where their presence
would be 'obnoxious. Others would be
less "footballish" about the proceed
ing, although they say that the re
sults gained by the rough method
would meet their highest approval.
One person, "It is lamentable that
such a condition exists. Students
should have a higher regard for their
fellow's rights."
The party raiders caused much
comment last spring, and rumors of
pans to weed the "buttinski" habit
from the campus are being heard
daily.
