Vatta Circulation Managat STILL WE HESITATE "At meeting of the board of repents the question of fraternity rushing was discussed and a com mittee was appointed to invent some scheme by which the confusion at . the beginning of each school yenr might be abated. This committee appealed to the fraternities to take the initiative in the matter." So reads an item in The Nebras kan of twenty years ago. Second semester pledging:, as proposed by the committee, was not adopted by the fraternities. Agitation for de layed pledging, we find, has a rather long history at the University of Ne braska. Twenty years ago the plan was rejected by the fraternities. A similar fate has been received by the delayed rushing proposition ' each time it has been considered. Why this is so, is difficult to deter mine. Fraternities, not only at Ne braska, but at all schools, are chary of innovations; in each move to im prove the fraternity system they see an attempt to curb tfieir activities or abolish fraternities entirely. Such a short-sighted attitude has brought much criticism on fraternities. If they would consider without preju dice the matter of delayed pledg ing we feel that they would adopt it, but each time it is brought up the opposition is almost instinctively formed. At some schools, and within the last ten years at Nebraska, the fra ternities, after a great struggle, have adopted second-semester pledging. But at most schools it is the regents, trustees, or faculty who must take the lead. When the system is once in force it usually is satisfactory to all 'concerned. At the University of Kansas a campaign is being carried on to adopt delayed pledging. The stimu lus that started this campaign may have been an incident, caused by hurried rushing, that occurred re cently. A rushee, preceded by a highly laudatory telegram from an other chapter, was received with en thusiasm by one of the oldest fra ternities on the K. U. campus. He was pledged. Later it developed that the young man had entered the school on forced credits, had sent the telegram himself, and that while he came of a good family that he had been charged with a particularly heinous crime. Only by accident was this discovered, and the man's pledge broken. The fraternity has not yet recovered from the loss of prestige suffered from this incident. Except for the lucky accident, before mentioned, he might be one of the Ledwich's Tastie Shoppe SODAS AND MALTED MILKS Wa Deliver B-2189 12tb "P" Sta. SAY FELLA'S!

Such is the fruit of tho present insane system of rushing, together with other mistakes of a disturbing but less serious type. If each fra ternity man will think over the cases in his own fraternity where lament able mistakes have been mado in the excitement of rush week we believe that he will conclude that, after all, delayed pledging does not present such a terrible front. KINDS OF COURAGE In the 1924 Olympics among the most notable performances which has gone down as athletic history was the 10,000 meter cross country run. It was ft hot sultry dny, one of the warmest during the games, and the course difficult. The first man to reappear in the stadium finishing the race was the renowned Nurmi. He jogged easily across the tape and into his training quarters. Behind his some SOO-meters came the other run ners, one, two, three, they filed into the stndium fighting to keep their feet, fighting to win. One fell, and raised himself and crossed the finish lino. Another, frantic with fatigue and the hent, turned as he reared the finish and ran in tho opposite di rection. Only seven of thit vast number of men, the pick of the na tions, finished the race that day. Saturday the Nebraska cross coun try team goes into action on the home course. Their task will be to uphold the Huskcr standards of good sportsmanship and fighting spirit in the race, while the football team bat tles for honor. Many an athlete has risen to high er efforts and added glory with the crowd cheering and urging him on to the goal and victory. But the real test for any man, and for any team, is to battle alone and unassist ed. That is the test that the six harriers who represent Nebraska will be putting themselves through. The courage they depend upon to win the five mile run may even sur pass the courage of the football team. To them it is a man to man light for supremacy through thirty odd minutes of grueling foot racing. When they leave the stadium dur ing the second quarter of the game today let us give them a cheer. And again when they enter the stadium nearing the finish, win or lose, let us show these Scarlet runners that their work is appreciated. On The Air University Studio broadcasting over KFAB (340.8).

Williams. It was the offi cial itemized account of all of the sports at Nebraska, and it contained interesting data of the receipts and exepnditures of this department. Football, as has been usual, was the only paying sport in the 1. . and was credited with a gain of $3,030.92 The other athletics showed losses that varied from $36. 8S to $719.45.

Twenty Years Ago The people of Omaha were treated to a football tableau when Nebraska defeated Creighton by a score of 100 to 0. Not once in the game did a Creighton man get a punt or place a kick off. The sophomore hop was attended by fewer dancers than has been the case in many preceding years. The senior class met in University Hall and adopted the report of the committee recommending the publi cation of a new law annual. Claude Davis was elected editor with C. M. Rolofson as manager. The initial basketball practice of the year was held and prospects are bright for a champion team.

"Madison Square 82198," says a voice in San Francisco; and a message starts on its wajr across the continent. But the similarity between football and the communication art doesn't stop there. In each case signals have unleashed a great force. Coordination has scored the goal. And this was made possible only through years of preparation. In one instance, on the gridiron. In the other, in the college class room and the laboratories of industry. That, in short, is why men who've learned their fundamentals and how to apply them at the snup of a signal are qualifying for positions of leadership in the greatest field of signals known to man the field of communication.
