WE ARE REPRIMANDED
In another column of this paper
will ho found a communication from
three students in the College of
Business Administration in which
we are corrected, aye! even berated,
for an editorial which appear
ed recently. Among other things,
we learn that we are a Grim Joker,
and lacking in a sense of delicacy.
As to the sense of delicacy that may
be true; but as to being a joker, we
hesitate to accept the label. We
have been, we fear, somewhat fail
ing in a sense of humor, and while
we thank our correspondents for
commending our wit, we fear that
the compliment is scarcely justified.
We are informed that there are
other colleges more deserving of
condemnation than the Bizad Col
lege. Upon that question we will
not comment, chiefly because our
editorial however unintelligible it
may have been, was not meant to
knock any college in particular.
We have never taken a course in
business cycles, and ill success in that
cannot account for our alleged vic
iousness." We were exposed to a
semester course in bookkeeping in
high school but since that time we
have shunned all things that smack
of ledger and balance sheets. While
we cannot claim to have been a bril
liant success in the high school ourse
mentioned, we did pass, and it does
not remain as dust and ashes in our
figurative memory (mixed meta
phor, but what of it?). Not having
had any experience in this line, we
must decline the invitation to aid the
class in business cycles.
We are compelled to agree with
the statement that there are to.
many staffers in college, and to
deny that the College of Business
Published in

Administration was singled out for
our barbs. It merely served as a
convenient instrument to illustrate
a larger idea. As to tho wager on
tho number or percentage of Bluf
fers in tho respective colleges, why
csk us? We are not informed on
the subject, nor do we intend to
spend several weeks at tho executive
dean's office tabulating records to
find out. Besides, betting is im
moral. But to be more Rcrious. It was
not our intention to single out the
College of Business Administration
for criticism. We might as well
hnve referred to the other technical
colleges on the campus whose re
quirements of cultural subjects
seem to us too small. We attempted
in our inexpert way, to write some
thing of an allegory to point out
the error of going through college
without becoming educuted.
"THE MESSIAH"
The, annual presentation of "The
Messiah", Handel's oratorio which
will be given in Memorial Hall at 10
o'clock this morning, is one of the
few genuine traditions that tho Uni
versity has. Today the oratorio will
be presented for tho thirtieth time.
"The Messiah" has now come to
an almost inseparable part of the
Christmas season at the University.
While most of the students have no
great interest in music, this oratorio
has always been well attended and is
appreciated widely. The University
chorus, under the coaching of Mrs.
Carrie B. Raymond, is entirely com
petent to make "The Messiah" a
success.
Other Opinions
The Daily Nebraskan assumes
no responsibility for the senti

dents and reserves the right to
exclude any communications
whose publication may for any
reason seem undesirable. In all
cases the editor must know the
t identity of the contributor. No
communications will be publish

arrangement initials only may be
signed.
A PROTEST
To the Editor:
We the undersigned (and prob
ably all Bizad students) resent the
editorial in Tuesday's Nebraskan en
titled "The Grim Comedy." The
person who wrote that editorial is
certainly a Grim Joker and lacks a
sense of delicacy in singling out one

college to criticise when the same
criticism may bo made of any col
lege on the campus and of some more
deservedly than tho College of Busi
ness Administration.
What inspired the editorial is not
for us to say. Perhaps the writer
knows whereof ho speaks from ex
perience. Perhaps he tried to "re
vel in bookkeeping and business
cycles" nnd didn't find them so easy,
hence tho bitter taste. Certainly the
class in Business Cycles would wel
como nny help which this all wise
editorial writer would give them in
solving the greatest of all business
problems.
No doubt there are too many Bluf
fers in our college. But why Binglc
us out? We are willing to wnger
that there are no more sluffers in
proportion than there are in nny
other of "the colleges.
Had your editorial been written in
a spirit of fairness, applying to the
wholo University, it could hnve been
endorsed, perhaps, by everyone.
We challenge the things you in
sinuate against tho students of the
College of Business Administration
and ask you to subnTt proof to sup
port your charges.
Very truly yours,
ERNEST WITT,
