WATCH YOUR SPIRIT
Nebraska spirit is showing a ten
dency at a time when it may be
highly disastrous. There are criti
cal days ahead for both the football
team and for the students.'
There is a big prize at stake
Husker spirit. What are you going
to do?
Wanted A Ford by a young lady
with a self starter.
We suggest importing a few men
from the stockyards to help load the
students into U-Hall during the rush.
She tried to run, she could not stir,
And terror struck her dumb.
"I'm caught in a deadly clutch," she
cried,
"I stepped on a wad of gum."
Why doesn't some enterprising
student start a bus line from Library

We are sore at the proofreader be
cause he won't make an funny, mis

are still wondering what was meant

stiffness of a football player's neck
recently interfered with the velocity
of his head.
A ROOTERS' SECTION
Rooting at the two home football
' games has been nothing short of a
failure. There has been but slight
response from the student section
especially at the Oklahoma game.
To successfully co-ordinate the
cheering of the thousands of students
who occupy the east section of the
stadium, there must be a nucleus
about which the cheers can be built
up. There must be a center upon
which the cheer leaders may work.
A suggestion made within the mil
itary department might be a solu
tion. It is possible to get about seven
hundred cadets out in uniform for
every game. The cadets would be
allowed to take over the center sec
tion of the stadium and they would
be the nucleus for all rooting. Their
cheering would be under the super
vision of the cheerleader. This would
enable the students to guide their
rooting by the action of the central
unit. It seems like a feasible scheme.
body that wishes to turn out and
cheer the team onward toward Notre
Dame? Do it and then every last
one of you Cornhuskers of our
Fighting Team watch us turn out and
see if our spirit is not right.
Fieht. Nebraska, Fight! Disre
gard rumors. Do not think that they
express the sentiment of the student
body, and put under your headgears
the fact that we know your hearts
are for Nebraska, and our hearts are
loyal and true to the team that is
carrying the banner of the Scarlet
and Cream.

, COLLEGE RUSHES.
The Student Council at Cornell has
ruled that there shall be no more col
lege rushes. In making the ruling,
the Council stated that the danger
of class scraps has passed and that
there was no longer any need for the
rush.
At Nebraska, -A'here the students
are very cosmopolitan, where they
are in such great numbers that they
need to be organiyed, there is still
a need for the annual class rush.
Some day when you attend the
Olympics and see the freshmen and
sophomores divided in preparation
for the annual class fight, you will
certainly be impressed by the spirit
and unity manifested by the two
classes. It is their opportunity to
become acquainted with one another
and with the essentials of cheering,
whether it be their class scrapper or
their own efforts. Nebraska is not
ready to discard the annual class
scrap.

OCTOBER NUMBER OF
BLUE PRINT ISSUED
JAPANESE PROFESSOR
TO LEAVE FOR EAST
Professor Nazura, Guest of Dr.
Poole, is in America to Study
Spoken English
Prof. Giro Nagura, who has been
visiting at the home of Doctor R. J.
Pool, left for Chicago and the East
Monday. Professor Nagura is con
nected with the English department
of a Japanese state college, and has
been sent by the Japanese govern
ment to study spoken English and in
crease his knowledge of the language.
He attended the home coming cele
bration and the dedication of the Me
morial stadium, ancl gave a talk at a
recent meeting of the faculty men's
dinner club. He was especially inter
ested in the fact that Lincoln and the
University have been developed in
little more than half a century.
Professor Nagura has translated
about forty English volumes into
Japanese. He is now translating
Japanese poetry and stories into
English.
"The Japanese language," said
Professor Nagura in a speech to Dr.
Poole's classes, is made up of one
hundred thousand symbols. Until two
years ago, children in the public
schools were required to learn six
thousand symbols but this has been
cut down to two thousand. The Jap
anese children are rapidly learning
Enelish and I predict that in a few
years the universal language of Japan
will be English. The Roman num
erals are now used in accounting and
mathematics.
"The symbols that are so confus
ing to your people, represent
syllables, and are combined to express
thoughts," he stated. "Our language
is founded on reasoning. For in
stance, the symbol for women, when
written in a group means 'noisy.' The
reason is easily understood.
"The Japanese business men," said
Dr. Nagura, "wear American clothes
during the day in Yokohoma and
Tokio, but changes to his traditional
garb in the evening." Dr. Nagura
followed this custom during his visit
in Lincoln. His gowns were decor
ated with his family crest which has
been in existence for fifteen centuries.

. Student Opinion.
Contributions to this column are very
welcome and invited. Student opinion is
valuable to the editorial staff of the paper,
consequently we welcome it.
Dear Editor:
We have read with ire in our hearts
the fact that rumors are going the
rounds intimating that "our team" is
not doing all in its power for the
school. We hope that the team does
not think this is the sentiment of
tne student body. Cannot some way
be arranged so that we can show
them that we do not approve it and
are on the other hand back of "our
boys" to the man? Must "our team"
prepare for the Notre Dame game
with the feeling that the student
body is not pushing? Allow us to
get out and show the team that we
admire their work, their fighting
spirit, and their efforts to piA old
Nebraska on top of the pile. Must
we wait until the whistle sends our
team against Notre Dame to show the
boys that we have the old rpirit and
are "carrying on?" It should not be
so. ' We are interested in every move
they make in preparation for "the
game of their lives. Why not ar
range for a practice game nert Sat
jrday between the Freshmen and
Varsity, and invite all of the student
