Both students and faculty members
seem to be heartily in favor of the
plan to lengthen Thanksgiving vaca
tion and shorten spring vacation one
day. The columns of The Daily Ne
braskan give abundant proof to this
statement. We are not at all sur
prised in this, in fact the benefits of
the change are so obvious that the
support of the entire University pub
lic was almost certain even before
the matter, was brought to their at
tention. The apparent success of this vaca
tion plan is a real victory for the
Student Council. At the beginning of
the year the Council, a much berated
and rundown organization, an
nounced an ambitious program for
the year. The furtherance of this va
cation plan was one of the things on
that program. If this goes through,
as it probably will, the Student Coun
cil should get the credit for it.
The acceptance of the plan will
also show the willingness of the ad
ministration to cooperate with the
students. This spirit of cooperation
between the two bodies will do much
to further the interests of the Uni
versity. The World Forum Wednesday
noon luncheons have started again
and two meetings have been held al
ready. C. D. Hayes, secretary of the
University Y. M. C. A., spoke at the
opening meeting and Dr. Bixby, State
Journal columnist spoke this week.
This is about the only real discus
sion group on the campus at the pre
sent time in which the subjects which
should interest students are discus
sed. Despite that fact, the meetings
are not as successful as they should
he. What the Forum needs is less
speaking and more discussion and the
subjects should be of more interest
to the student body in general than
they have been in the past.
V aa
There is real need of discussion on
this campus. The lack of interest on
the part of students in the matters
which they should naturally be inter
ested is almost appalling. There are
a few who take note of what is going
on around them, but general interest
and discussion on campus problems
is practically unknown.
There is at the present time a
movement on foot to start discus
sion groups in fraternity houses. It
is certain that some discussion groups
should be organized. The question is I
whether or not the fraternity is the
group which should be chosen for
this.
of years, but it did not see fit to
do this. Instead, it adhered to the
plan of appropriating only for the
biennium, holding that it ought not
to commit future legislatures to a
definite building program.
There is much to be said for this
position. Generally speaking, it is
a sound one, not to be departed from
except when it can be clearly shown
that the interests of both the tax
payers and the university will be
promoted by doing so.
It appears to us plain, however,
that both economy and sound prac
tice favor the long term building pro
. . . i
gram. An institution as large ana
having as many component units as
the University of Nebraska ought not
to bo built piecemeal
developed in accordance with a def
inite plan to be worked out row be
fore construction has gone to the
point where it would be difficult to
bring about a unity of desipn. Such
a plan has been worked out by Mr.
Seymour and his committee and the
state owes them an expression of
grateful appreciation for their work.
It can show this appreciation best
by making certain that the next leg
islature adopt a policy which will per
mit a real step to bo taken toward a
realization of the committee's plan.
This will not involve the spending of
more money than would tne piece
meal program. In fact, the economy
of building to a well worked-oul plan
is so apparent that it almost goe
without saying that it will be the
most economical and will involve the
smallest possible contribution from
the taxnavers. At the same time, it
will prove best for the university
since it may then go ahead with its
construction program knowing in ad
vance just what to expect.
The people of Nebraska want to
see their state university go forward
in step with the rest of the nation,
and this can best be assured by a
settled policy of campus develop
ment.

Other Opinions
The Kosmet Klub has announced
the selection of the musical comedy
written by Herbert Yenne, "The
Dream Pirate," for its 1926 produc
tion. The cast will be made up en
tirely of men. This will be an inno
vation at Nebraska but there is no
reason why it should not prove sue
cessful here as it has at other large
Universities.
Since the cast will be made up en
tirely of men the Klub will be al
lowed for the first time to take the
show on a tour of the state some
thing which has never been sanc
tioned before. This tour will furnish
an excellent means of advertising
the University to the people in th?
state. The time in between acts will
be devoted to speeches and perhaps
moving pictures and songs all con
nected with the University.
This tour of the state, especially
if it is continued and becomes an an
nual affair, will mean a great deal to
the University. It will establish a
connection between the people in the
state and the University which is ob
tainable in no other way. This feel
ing of good will toward the Univer
sity is something which must be cul
tivated carefully if this institution if
to attain the heights to which it is
Teaching.

The Spirit of a T?ue Cornrmnker
To the Editor:
As freshmen we wonder just what
this so-called Spirit of a True Corn
husker is, and jusc what it really
means and so desire to seek its ideas
trying to live up to it. On the cam
pus we hear about it. The upper
classmen on their way from clis-tS
talk about the comin? events of the
activities that interest them. Suii;e
speak about the fotlaH teams, the
Awgwan, the Blue Print, the Daily
Nebraskan, Glee clihs, Class officers,
Fraternities, Sororities, and so on.
The greatest tradition of the Corn-
husker institutions is the spirit of
the University as a body. A man or
woman who has spent 4 years in the
University of Nebraska, carries away
something that will discover him no
matter where he may be found. If
one were to go to either the east or
west coast, he will find the Corn-
husker known for his true rpirit. This
is due to the fact that our great col
ors, the Scarlet and Cream, are dis
played in such a credible fashion by
our football and track teams. This
that I have just mentioned is very
small in comparison with the honors
of the men and womor who are
leaving the University of Nebraska j
and especially those who have gone
before really spread the Spirit of a
True Cornhusker.
Getting back to the freshmen. I.e
is wondering how it is possible to
obtain this much lauded spirit. Al
ready a number of special meetings
have been held to start him out right
and try and help him In such a way
that he may follow the line up the
steps till he acquires the Spirit of a
True Cornhusker. Now during the
next few games let us keep our eyes
open and watch our upper classmen,
the cheer leaders, Corn Cobs and Tas
sels and join in with helping to de
velop a winning spirit, the spirit of
a True Cornhusker.

Track Managers
To the Editor:
For several weeks a call has been
out for candidates for sophomore
track manager. To date, one sopho
more has appeared for work with
something like twenty sophomores
needed. It is true that thre is not a
great deal of remunerati m for the
work and there is always plenty of
work.
The sophomore managers compete
for positions as junior managers
from whom the senior manager is
selected. The senior managers in each
sport are given letters and granted
all the privileges of letter men with
the exception of voting on captains.
This is really a substantial reward
and there is the addit'onal reward,
true of all college activities, develop
ment of worthwhile friendships and
contacts with fellow students.
In the past, sufficient numbers
have generally reported quickly.
Evidently certain changes have come
over the student body, if the seenr
ing of candidates for sophomore
track managers w placed or. the
same basis as for securing students
for many other activities on the w
pus, perhaps they could ba secured.
Thus, we shouM sngeft that an
initiation fee be charj-ed, that a
rough initiation, consisting of a se
vere paddling and sonid other stunts
designed to test tte candidates' abil
ity to absorb punishment, should be
administered. Fees should be charged
to cover the expenses of someone
else. And of course, a pin should be
designed which could bi prominently
displayed by the proud candidates.
