The University of Nebraska is great institution, one of the greatest schools in the middlewest. It has high scholastic standards, its athletic teams are known from coast to coast, leaders in different fields of learn ing are numbered among its faculty, and its graduates are making . names for themselves and Nebraska in the world at large. Nebraska University, however, has not been given proper recognition for its high standing and achieve ments by the people of the state. A large share of the taxpayers of the state .are not acquainted with the University and what it is doing for the young people of the state. They know of the University largely by hearsay, and while its great accom plishments are often passed without notice, the least fault or mistake by the University is brought before them. Newspapers of the state are too ready with criticism of the Univer sity, and too stingy with praise. Take the matter of athletics for instance. When Nebraska is winning, all well and good, but let Nebraska lose a few contests. A concerted howl goes up, and the University is assailed in no uncertain terms. Mucn of this mistaken and often antagonistic attitude toward the state school can be overcome by the proper advertising and boosting for the University. A constant publicity campaign should be carried on to give the people of the state a bet ter understanding of the University. This understanding would lead nat urally to a greater apreciation and respect for the institution. Students can help a great deal in overcoming prejudice and building up esteem for the University. They can do this in various ways. First of all, they should be care ful of their own conduct at all times, remembering that people are judging the University by their individual ac tions. Again, they should become better acquainted with the Univer sity, and boost for the Cornhusker school at every oportunity. They should make an effort to learn more about the school and its accomplish ments, an endeavor which will de velop their pride for Nebraska. Then they should talk Nebraska to their friends and relatives, to high school students, and to everyone with whom they come in contact. An exposition of the Bok peace plan on which a referendum vote f the American people is being taken through the newspapers, is published in today's Nebraskan. This article, which is written by Professor Fling of our University, briefly discusses the Bok plan in all its pnases. Pro fessor Fling is a student of interna tional politics and affairs, and is widely recognized as an authoritiy on the subject of foreign relations. Nebraska University students should understand the Bok plan and be able to discuss and vote intelligently on it. A careful reading of the article by Professor Fling will give students a clear understanding of this famous subject. Following several serious "accidents because of heavy traffic across the University campus, the Minneapolis city council prohibited certain class es of traffic from driving across the campus. This news should remind Nebraska that some more effective regulation of traffic on Twelfth street should be made. At present cars pass up and down this street a a high speed when students are cross ing, and it is only by miraculous good fortune that no serious accidents have RAG CARPET Gee! I wish I were an owl. Why? So I wouldn't have to worry about getting up mornings. Now is the time for all good sleds to slide together. My flivver has a rattle. Well, it's a very young flivver. The only notes some people take in class is to note whether the pro fessor notes that they are taking a nap. Even the janitors have their lit tle pickups of the day. He Your bark sounds like a grave yard. She Oh, no. It's just a little coughin'. A little examination now and then occurred here. Students and others who have occasion to drive along Twelfth street are urged to drive carefully. Enough students have been the victims of auto accidents this year without any additions thru careless and fast driving on the cam pus. Certain University men still persist in smoking around the campus doors of the different buildings on the cam pus, ine objections to this practice, which has become a campus nuisance, are numerous, and are apparent to everyone, including the violators of the ruling against this practice. With practically no inconvience, the smok ers can indulge at a reasonable dis tance from the buildings, and every one will be happier. Smoking away from the campus doors requires al most no sacrifice on the part of those who smoke. The objections to the prevailing custom, however, are many and deep-seated. Those who must smoke are urged to smoke away from the buildings, thereby obeying the University ruling and showing a more courteous regard for their fellow stu dents. Looking at random through col lege papers one sees a number of sports held at other schools in which Nebraska does not participate. Inter collegiate polo is held at Missouri and other schools south of Nebraska. Harvard, Columbia, and other col leges have chess teams. Rowing is featured at schools on both coasts. Hockey is a fovorite sport of many Universities and the Big Ten holds an annual bowling tournament. Some of these sports could not be held at Nebraska because of the lack of cer tain natural lines of athletic endea- r which Nebraska University would do well to take up. A little more active interest and participa tion in various sports, would go a long way towards making a better student body. Colorado has adopted the point sys tem in school activities. Under this system, each activity counts so many oints and students are allowed to win just a certain number of points in activities during their college course. Under the situation existing at Ne braska and other schools at the pres ent, a small number of students often monopolize activities to the detriment of the activity, the individual himself and the student body as a whole. Par ticipation in activities should be limit ed, and as many students as possible should be given a chance to win hon ors in activities.
