TWENTIETH CENTURY STUDENT
College life is often criticised be
cause of its complexity. It is a com-
jmon occurrence to overhear students
bewailing the fact that they are in
ordinately busy; so very busy that it
seems impossible for them to crowd
all their activities in the hours not

ILLINOIS IS COMING.
Tomorrow, when the opening
whistle sounds for the Illinois-Ne
braska game in the Memorial Sta
dium, the "Fighting Cornhuskers"
will face their foe handicapped by
the giant of inexperience.
The Illini, a smooth, well-polished
veteran gridiron machine, will line
up on one side of the 60-yard line,
while Nebraska's new and untried
eleven will assemble on the other.
Illinois is expecting victory.
"Red" Grange, hailed as the great
est football player of gridiron his
tory last year, is in the "Fighting
JUini" baikfield. Britton, a triple
threat man, whose punts average 50
yards, and who passes with deadly ac
curacy, is playing his second year.
Captain Rokusek, Brown and Hall
weighty tackles, and others of the
1923 all-victorious Illinois team, will
play Nebraska for the second time.
The Husker moleskin warriors,
many of them playing their first col
lege football game, will fight against
America's greatest. The great Noble,
who alone scored more points against
Notre Dame in two years than any
other team has in six years, is gone.
I.ewellen, Nebraska's great punter,
the Dewitzes and others of the great
teams of che last two years, are gone,
Nebraska is pitting a green team
against Zuppke's warriors Saturday
but,
Nebraska will fight!
A fighting student body backing
the "fiKhtinsr Cornhuskers" will
swing the fortunes of the game to
ward Nebraska as much as would the
presence of the gieat stars of the
Scarlet and ('nam of other years.
Nebraska spirit can beat Illinois.
A veterar vwi n is aometimes easier
to def-'nl than an inexperienced one
becar.se of that intagible factor
that acquired the name "morale" dur
ing the World war.
The will of Neira-ka a:idents may
determine the diif"t:".i of victory.
That will must be apparent at the
rallv toi.ight and tli n ir.-r.t- in the
Stadium I .'i iimrrow.
Singing in classes today has been
authorised, f.eprestnuitives of the
students fi-fcid fi trt privilege in
order that the critnusnv.-m acquired
might lfi;:h..-:n the t-veceus of the
ridly tonight and the cheering at the
game tomorrow.
It is not intended that the singing
is to be a means of evading recita
tion or ommitting preparation. Uni
versity officials, interested in the ad
vencement of the institution, rightly
request that in return for the five
minutes of singing the students make
a special effort to help the instruct
ors by having their assignments well
in mind.
CHOOSE.
Filings for the first semester elec
tions close today. It is probable that
there will be several candidates for
each office.
Before the balloting Tuesday ev
ery student must for a judgment
of each man or woman nominated.
And that judgment should not be
made hastily.
The first step in forming such a
judgment is to make sure of the iden
tity of the candidate. The next is to
meet him, if that is possible by or
dinary means. Finally, before a de
finite derision is made, the candi
date's record should be investigated,
If the candidate has not been par
ticularly active before, that is noth
ing against him.
If he has been actice, and in his
activities has shown that he has
caught the Cornhuslcer spirit, if he is
a wiling supporter of worthwhile
causes advanced by ethers, there is
nuch to be said in his favor.
On the other hand, if he has held
winy offices secured through "poli
tical influence; it is not difficult
to detect such influence he is not
worthy to hold office at Nebraska.
of a university, protected from the
disconcerting world without, seem to
have flitted away with the past.
Sweet meditation in one's cham
ber, silent and apart from the out
side, is no more. Now we study to
the tune of the piano next door as I
jangles "music in the air." It is no
longer allowed to stay there, how
ever, but is pulled out of the atmos
phere via the radio, and translated
into noise.
The upshot of the whole matter is
that the world has changed. And
along with the world have gone the
conditions of student life.
The University is preparing its
children to go forth to tilt their lane
es at the windmills of the twentieth
century. They must learn to concen
trate; to make their mental natures
oblivious to the noise and confusion
without.
And in regard to being busy. The
successful man of our modern com
munities is the type who can shoulder
the work and responsibility of two
ordinary men and walk off with
them. He does his work swiftly, ef
ficiently, and tirelessly. And he is
able to carry on because he has
trained and enlarged his capabilities.
It is good for students to be busy.
They must learn to watch after the
spare moments. Experience teaches
them to avoid waste energy, and to
strike hard where their blows will
count. But above all they are being
taught how to compete successfully
in our modern, industrial life. L. L.

Ten Years Ago
The Comhusker gridsters defeated
Washburn by the score of 14 to 7
in the first game of the season. Ne
braska, however, lacked team work
and many fumbles marred the con-
test.
Filing for offices of the various
classes closd with a list of eight can
didates in the race for class offices.
The office which was causing the
most comment was that of senior
president. Although only two candi
dates were listed two factions had
been formed, favoring one or the
other, and the race seemed very
close.
DARTMOUTH The annual foot
ball rush between the freshmen am
sophomore classes resulted in a tie

balls were found in possession of the

had two there was no decision.
SYRACUSE Worldly wise sopho
mores are reaping a fortune by sell

alrleady purchased one to witness the
beauties of the chapel. The beau
ties of the chapel may be worth the
$1.60 paid for the ticket but the ex
perience is worth much more.

STETSON
jjOST young men today
know the importance of
looking fit. Good ap
pearance counts much
in the game of life. The young
man who dresses with taste has
a decided advantage.
But it is surprising how little
thought the average man gives
to his hat. It is his crown, yet he
seems to stop dressing at the neck.
Be careful in your selection of
your headwear. When you buy a
hat, select a Stetson. Its style is
right, its quality means long wear.
Roosevelt Said:
"In this actual world a churchless community, a
community where men have abandoned or
scoffed at or ignored their religious needs is a
community on the rapid down grade. I advocate
a man's joining in church work for the sake of
showing his faith by his work. Church work and
church attendance mean the cultivation of the
habit of feeling some responsibility for others.
Yes, I know all the excuses, I know that one can
worship the Creator in a grove of trees or in his
own house. ..But I also know as a matter of cold
fact that the average man does not thus wor
ship.
