"Because of the number of reservations that have already been mado for parties, no action could be taken by the represen tatives of campus organizations who met Wednesday evening at the Temple. Decision to again consider the matter, and to set a student scale for ball rooms and other necessities for parties was made, however.." The Daily Nebraskan, October 2, 1925. Almost exactly a year ago the above appeared in the editorial col umns of this newspaper. At that time a campaign to lower the prices of dance halls and orchestras, very aim ilar to the one being started now, was inaugurated, and defeated as is seen in the paragraph above. Similar drives to lower the prices of parties have been made and all with the same effect, that is in the last few years. Some four or five years ago an effective boycott brought the prices down to reason, but they have continually risen since then. This year it is the dance orchestras that will have to be contended with more than the halls, but it is all practically the same The orchestra prices have risen from 25 to 50 per cent until they are almost prohibi tive. As it has been pointed out by the Student Council, with the small al lowance given the sororities for their parties, it is practically impossible for them to arrange their entertainments this year. The excuse given last year for the defeat of the campaign is the same thing that will be encountered this year, in fact it has already been en countered. The organizations have al ready arranged for their winter par ties and most of the spring parties have also been scheduled. This is an obstacle that will have to be over come if the prices are ever to be brought down for the same condi tions will exist next year as are found this year. There must be some way, however, to force these prices down. The per son or organization which finds this way will be hailed as the campus hero or heroes. The relief may come through forcing the organizations to give up their parties or through hir ing out-of-town orchestras or through a boycott for next year started now. We are not prepared to say how thia relief will come, unfortnnately. But it will come in time. The public, even the University public, will not submit to being held up forever.

Cheat Club Open Meeting The University ' Chess Club will hnM Its first onen meeting of the year next Saturday at 7:30 o'clock in the Y. M. C. A. room of the Tem ple building. All students interested in chess are cordially invited to at tend. DAD'S DAY On Saturday Nebraska Dads will be guests of the University. The Uni versity will be thrown open to them and they will be entertained in var ious wys, with the luncheon at the Chamber of Commerce, the Missouri Nebraska football game in the after noon, and other functions in the eve ning. Copies of today's issue of The Daily Nebraskan will be available to the student body to be sent to the fathers with no expense to the sender. This tradition gives the students an opportunity to show their grati tude to their fathers who are always eager to participate in the activities. After all it's Dad who pays the bills and most of us wouldn't be here if he didn't. It takes very little time to sign up to have a copy of the Nebraskan sent home and to write a little note to Dad urging him to come down Sat urday and he will appreciate it. Even if he can't come he will be glad to know that you thought to ask him and he will probably start planning now on coming next year. EDUCATION AND STARVATION (Daily Palo Alto.) "University presidents and Boards of Trustees have become blinded by our great American craze for mere size. A few million dollars donated to education means more buildings, more students, and more teachers, not better teaching by instructors who are paid sufficient salaries and allowed time for study and leisure," is the opinion of Frank Bohn in a late issue of The Forum, who breaks out with drastic measures suggested to rescue higher education and the starving professors. It is an undisputed fact that first- class members of university faculties are rapidly deserting education for business, where their first year salary is from two to five times as large as1 the highest wages paid to profes sors. It is also a fact that one west ern state university boasts of the fact that it ministers to more than 40,000, while 15,000 of these are full time students. However, when Bohn suggests that total registration in his "Utopia Uni versity" should never exceed 1,500, that the faculty should be three hun dred members, and that the lowest paid member would receive $20,000 he is speculating many years ahead of our time. The idea is excellent, but it cannot possibly work under the economic situation of today and still The University of Nebraska Official Daily Bulletin VOL. II. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1926. NO. 13.

Should the universities be limited to the intellectually superior, or does the nation owe the very highest train ing possible to all of ita citizens! Whatever the answer to the ques tion may be, an intelligent modifica tion of expenses for university build ings and plant is possible. If build ings and equipment are limited to too great an extent, higher education will be open to even a smaller percentage of Ameriian youth. If more of this money was concentrated on the qual ifications and salary of instructors, higher education in the United States might be more successful.
