COACH ZUPPKE'S APPEAL
Seven hundred and twenty stu
dents have not paid the second iif
.stallnient on their stadium pledges
that has been due since last October
24. Coach Henry Schulte made
a forceful statement a few days ago,
in which he appealed to the students
to make good their pledges.
The University of Illinois used for
the first time last season its new
stadium that will cost over two mil
lion dollars when completed. The
money was raised by subscriptions by
alumni and students, and they, like
Nebraskans, have been a little slow
in making good their pledges.
Coach Robert Zuppke issued a
statement under the heading "Fight
to Complete Stadium in 1924." The
same condition exists here at Nebras
ka. The athletic department will be
seriously hampered in their work, un
less the stadium be properly equipped
and this equipment can only be pur
chased if the pledges are promptly
met when due. .
Nebraska spirit when aroused, is
equal to that of any University in
iL . j mi..
me country, xne same cuiiuiuuu ire
vails here as that which Coach Zup
pke discusses, and his message can
be addressed to Nebraskans with
equal effect. His statement follows:
"FIGHT TO COMPLETE STADIUM
IN 1924
I know that the football men are
anxious that the Memorial Stadium
shali be completed for Homecoming
next fall that they may have the
honor of dedicating it I am sure
that a completed Stadium will be a
great incentive for them to surpass
themselves. But, after all, that is
not the big point.
Above every other reason, there
should be a completed Stadium to
show to the college world the deq
termination of the alumni and the
students of Illinois to complete what
ever they start.
I remember how proud I was when
Tad Jones, football coach of Yale,
told me that nothing had ever im
pressed him so much as the demon
stration of loyalty by the students
of Illinois in the big mass meeting
which launched the drive for the
Memorial Stadium. That is an ex
ample of the favorable opinion and
comment on the great project.
There will be another RlnS of com
ment if Illinois, through the derelic
tion of some of the subscribers to
the Stadium, is unable to complete
it this year as planned. There will
be those who will point to the un
finishe d?tructure as evidence of the
the hollowness of the spirit of fight
ing Illini, even if the situation is
due to the remissness of a minority
and discounts the loyal record of the
majority.
Illini is alumni and students would
have nothing but scorn for a football
team which "quit." They would
have the feeling that they had been
betrayed. They expect the athletes
who represent them to fight against
the heaviest odds to fight as the
champions of 1923 fought in the
Ohio stadium last November, when
Ohio had the ball on the Illinois one
foot line and an Ohio touchdown
meant almost certain defeat and the
loss of the championship. Capt.
Jim McMillen said that the boys saw
"those gold footballs flying away"
and they HELD!
Show the same kind of spirit that
you expect from your athletes, you
subscribers whose delay in meeting
your obligations today places in
doubt the completion of the Stadium
in 1924. Don't let some of Illinois'
prestige fly away. Fight to make
rood your pledf, There is -no
achievement in the world that
amounts to anything that does not
require fight and sacrifice.
Illinois will be judged by the finish
not by the start. Fight for a symbol
of accomplishment of a realized

COSTS OF EDUCATION.
(Michigan Daily)
Complaints of various natures are
constantly being received by men
who are connected in some way with
the legislative powers of the state or
nation, and which include in great
part the protest against the sup
posed high taxation for education.
It is to be admitted of course that
huge sums of money are each year
expended for educational purposes
in the United States, but when these
figures are placed along side the
amounts spent for luxuries and pleas
ures, it will be readily seen that after
all, education does not cost as much
as it would seem, speaking propor
tionally. To even maintain a fair education
al system costs a great deal of
money. Last year, $1,500,000,000
was spent on education. As against
this however, there was spent $2,
1110,000,000 for tobacco, and $1,
800,000,000 for candy, soft drinks,
and ice cream. The cost for joy rid
ing and pleasure is set at $3,000,
000,000. Just for a moment re
flect over these figures and see for
yourself what the comparative costs
are. It is rather astounding to
know the actual truth of the situa
tion. '
True education is really in its in
fancy here in the United States. It
will take at least several generations
before the stage is reached where a
system will be perfected in which
there will exist a co-ordination be
tween education and life. Until such
a stage is reached, education really
amounts to nothing more or less than
experimentation. And it is this ex
perimentation that costs. When a
more efficient educational system is
brought into being, it is a definite
thing that taxation for education will
increase, for it will take on entirely
new aspects and become and serve
a more practical purpose than it at
present doc. However, when that
time comes, we shall probably have
a different type of taxpayer to, con
tend with.

Geologists Discuss
Permian Red Beds
The semi-monthly meeting of the
geology seminar was held last eve
ning at the Grand hotel. Following
the dinner at 6 o'clock, a discussion
of the Permian red beds of the
United States took place. Mr. Fos
ter, student of geology, who has done
extensive field work in the Permian
red beds of Kansas and Oklahoma,
gave the principal address of the
evening, telling of the probable ori
gin, extent and uses of these beds.
"They extend from southern Ne
braska, through Kansas and Okla
homa, and into Texas, covering the
central portions of each state. They
are the largest Permian beds in the
United States, there being only two
other beds known on this continent.
They are located in Ne wMexico and
Virginia," said Mr. Foster in describ
ng the beds. "No one knows the
true origin of the red beds exept
that they date from the Permian age.
All indications point to the theory
that they were probably formed by
rivers emptying into an inland sea,"
he said.
"The beds are Important and are
worked for their deposits of common
salt and gypsum. Oil and gas are
also found in the panhandle regions
Texas," Mr. Foster pointed out.
Following Mr. Foster's talk a gen
eral discussion on the Permian red
beds of the world took place.
