Flan to stay for commencement.
The whole program for the Corn
husker Roundup is completed and re
ports of it have been sent to the
thousands of Nebraska alumni and ex
Ftudents. Too often undergraduates
do not read the part of the program
which follows Ivy Day, organization
banquets, and the commencement
baseball frame. They do not plan to
stay for the splendid Sunday program
and for the commencement address
and exercises.
The commencement address and ex
ercises will be especially worth-whil
this sprintr. They form the climax
of the entire Roundup celebration.
All students who want to become well
acquainted with Nebraska traditions
will plan to stay for commencement.
practically all his time reading de
tective stories, the scandal sheets of
the newspapers, and books that have
been suppressed is doing himself a
great deal of harm. There is a dan
ger that the reader will take such
material too seriously. It is neces
sary to examine light fiction with a
critical eye. The ideal reader con
centrates on the best worsk in the
field of literature, but he keeps be
fore him the ever present aim of im
proving his education by reading upon
a variety of subjects.
There is an ever Increasing ten
dency on the part of students to ig
nore the best literary works' for ab
solute trash. The fault lie3 in the
home training and secondary school
education which the student receives
before coming to college. The desir
ability of appreciating fine writing
is under emphasis by him. The stu
dent of today must realize that while
lighter fiction may be read occasion
ally, it should not comprise the basis
for an education. Michigan Daily.
Notices
While the whole University wil
await with interest the speech to be
given here Saturday by President
Meiklejohn of Amherst, students and
faculty members of the College of
Arts and Sciences will be expecially
anxious to hear the noted educator.
Saturday might well be designated
Arts and Sciences Day and students
of that college will do well to make
an extra effort to hear the address of
the eastern president. President
Meiklejohn will come as the Phi Beta
Kappa and Sigma Xi orator, thus
recognizing the honorary national
Arts and Sciences organizations. With
Dean Phi'.o Buck recently returned to
take active charge of the college af
fairs, the mother college may set
aside Saturday as one to review the
purposes for which it was established
and the ideals toward which it is con
stantly striving.
The plan to strictly limit the num
ber of "closed nights'' during the next
school year has some real advantages
and yet the door should not be too
closely shut. No doubt there have
been times when nights have been
barred unjustly to all except one
student activity. The student body is
too large to be accommodated at many
of these functions. The abolishing of
these "closed nights" is to be com
mended. But there are a few Uni
versity customs and traditions which
should be continued with a doubt. The
general opinion may be that if these
cannot live without having a "closed
night" set aside for them, they are not
popular with the students and there
fore do not need to be continued. But
there are always hundreds of students
each year who have had no opportun
ity to become acquainted with these
customs and who do not realize their
importance to the school. Let the new
rule operate, then, to uphold these
customs and traditions even at the
expense of a liberal interpretation of
its purpose.

The art of correct reading is some
thing which any student should be
more than glad to acquire. A major
ity of college students do not make
the most of their reading opportum
ties; they spend many hours thumbing
the pages of the latest short story
magazines, special preference always
being given to the magazine that runs
the worst trash in its columns. On
the other hand, there is the college
grind, a somewhat rare specimen
these davs, who devotes his spare
reading time to a perusal of the
weightiest articles on file in the li
brary with never a thought of adding
a trace of variety to his education by
reading a throbbing novel of the Ca
nadian northwest.
Even with the ardous scholars who
read the long dry passages of the
standard works, there must at times
be a craving for a short snappy story.
No special harm can come from read
ing a red hot story right off the press
provided it is not taken seriously;
people need a little something to add
zest to the monotony of their exist
ence. Still, the person who spends

operation among the girls in the Col

GARDNER
ELECTED TO
N CLOD PRESIDENCY
Officers for Coming Year Are
Chosen at Luncheon for
Letter Men.
At a meeting of the N club at the
Chamber of Commerce Tuesday noon,
Maurice Gardner was elected presi
dent for the coming year. Other of
ficers elected are: Dave Noble, vice
president; Howard Turner, secretary
and treasurer; Joe Pizer, sergeant-at-arms.
The N club is composed of men in
the University of Nebraska who have
won a letter in any one of ' - sports.
It has become a very activ i niza
tion on the campus, promoting the
various athletic events during the
school year. It has charge of the
high school basketball tournament, the
interfraternity events, and the state
high school track meet. This year the
N club is publishing the Tales of the
Cornhuskers, the year-book of Corn
husker athletics. Each man in the
club appoints himself as a committee
of one to see that all the promising
athletes in the state come to the Uni
versity of Nebraska.
Another good way to pass the
spring exams with flying colors is
to be a .400 hitter.
