ON EXHIBIT
Princeton, Michigan, and Nebraska! That is the
record of the National Student Federation of America,
which will hold its third annual meeting on this cam
pus December 1, 2, and 3. This University's student
body should feel honored to know that student dele
gates from nearly every important college or univer
sity in the1 country will journey to Lincoln for three
days of conferences.
Many students do not realize the magnitude of
this convention. Last year at Ann Arbor, Michigan,
five hundred delegates from two hundred and fifty
schools attended. They discussed student problems;
not the Bolshevistic side of college life, but the vital
questions of self-government and inter-school relation
ships. These sessions took up most of the delegates' time,
but no matter how busy they were kept between con
vention meetings, they had sufficient time to inspect
the University of Michigan and to form impressions
to take back with them to every corner of the United
States.
Nebraska has an even greater problem to face.
Last year when this University was mentioned along
with Leland Stanford, Ohio State, and Cornell, as a
possible convention ground many delegates objected
because they believed such a school as Nebraska could
not comfortably take care of such an important con
vention. When the vote was taken, however, Nebraska
led by 72 votes. This majority did not take the ques
tionable attitude out of the minds of many delegates
who still think that starting for Lincoln is like going
into the wilderness with a pack train. Several delegates
questioned that' the railroad service to Lincoln would
accommodate five hundred people.
Which impression can be corrected by the rail
roads. The remainder of the three-day reception is
primarily up to the Student Council, but also to the
student body. This University will be under close
Bcrutiny by our far Eastern and western delegates, and
every student should be ready for a veritable "dress
parade".
The University Y. M. C. A. has .started on the
second stage of its drive. From all indications of the
drive so far, the office of the Y. M. C. A. has not
been heaped with pledges from the big hearted Uni
versity students. In fact, hardly one fifth of the quota
has been reached.
Barring the natural shyness of s University stu
dent to part with his money, there is still another fac
tor which undoubtedly contributes to the difficulties
of obtaining funds. Many students fail to -reap any
benefit directly from the Y. M. C. A. Few students
fail to come into contact with the advantages offered
by this esteemable institution.
The freshmen who in the fall are aided by tfte
"Y" in becoming established in school, should still have
these services fresh in their alleged minds, and con
sequently, should prove responsive to the entreaties
of the numerous solicitors now covering the. campus,
But to the student who has witnessed these drives year
after year, the Y. M. C. A. assumes the proportions of
an organization which renders a service, and although
the service is somewhat intangible because of no direct
contact, this service must be carried on.
The drive will continue, and verybody, that is
moet everybody, will contribute; and the Y. M. C. A.
will have funds to carry it through another year at
Nebraska. An avalanche of the filthy lucre, however,
can hardly be expected by the workers.
Notices
Nebraska cannot play aay Big Ten team in 1928.
Curses say the football fans. Breath easy, say the

CALLING MR. HUMOR!
The Daily Nebraskan lacks at present one depart
ment (among many others) that is found in most rep
resentative college papers. That is a humor column.
A few years ago such a column was a part of this
daily, but it was discontinued.
The purpose of this editorial is to sound out stu
dent opinion regarding the reinstatement of such a
feature. If favorable, the column will be conducted on
the contribution plan. Boxes will be placed at conven
ient places about the campus for contributions.
Regarding the policy of this column it will ad
here strictly to laissez faire it will profit by the
martyrdom of Montesrey.
Write and tell us your opinion upon your replies
will our decision rest.

WE WANT MONEY, WE WANT MONEY
Y. M. C. A. workers wore a downcast expression
yesterday as the second stage of their drive for funds
began with a decided lack of everything but energy
and determination. Why University students will pay
money to see worthless shows and then refuse a worthy
organization is more than the Young Men's Christian
Association can understand.
If these money-seekers could look beneath the
veneer of those they "hit" for funds, they would find
the anwser plainly written. Any student will pay for
what he can directly enjoy, but an intangible organi
zation which is usually heard about through the news
papers, does not pack any persuasion with its argu
ments for money. And the student, who is naturally
reticent, mumbles "No, I can't afford it."
In Other Columns
(This extract from the Daily Kansan might be
considered as quite appropriate applied to the trip
which a considerable number of Nebraska students plan
to make to Manhattan this week end.)
Be Good, Little Girl.
Caution outweighed trust in the action of the
Acting Dean of Women requiring all women attending
the Nebraska game yesterday to register their names,
methods of transportation, and times of departure and
return at the dean's office, even when accompanied by
chaperones.
It is regrettable that a double standard must be
projected into the official acts of the University. The
dean is quoted as saying that possibility of accidents
was one reason for such detailed registration. If this
was a legitimate reason, then certainly men should be
subject to the same regulations, for the men, too,
might conceivably strain a larynx by yelling, or tumble
out of an upper berth, or experience almost any other
accident to which women are susceptible.
But registration for either men or women, and
even official chaperones, smacks too much of Kinder
garten methods. There is no reason why women on the
faculty should not accompany the students on the same
special train if they wish to, although not in the capa
city of designated chaperones. They could give any
advice asked of them by the younger women, which
would probably be none; but to require the presence
of chaperones, and then registration is a reflection on
the intelligence and integrity of the women students
of the University.
Mayhap tradition supports such practice; and pos
sibly some people might be horrified if young women
were permitted to think and act for themselves. But
we can conceive of better traditions entrusting wom
en from eighteen to twenty-four years of age to their
own self-reliance, for instance.
But if students must be shepherded like children
let's quit pretending that "college is a preparation for
life" when it is quite plain that resourcefulness, one of
the most needed essentials of life, is ignored. Let's be
honest and call the University an institution for child
ren too big to clucter up the home nursery.

HDSKERS GO ON

187. The Husker backfield averages
179 pounds while the Kansas State
backs average 168.
Team Fir.t Met in 1911
Kansas Aggies and Nebraska are
old rivals on the gridiron. In 1911
the two football elevens met for their
first encounter and from that date
to this Nebraska has come through
every fray but one victorious, and
that one resulted in a scoreless tie.
Last year on stadium field the Hus
kers took a 3 to 0 count from the
Wildcat eleven before a Homecoming
crowd. The Homecoming crowd this
time will be at the Aggie school.
Reports from Manhattan are to
the effect that the Bachman crew is
performing in fine shape and is fin
ishing up a week of intensive train
ing for the Cornhuskers. Captain
Douglass is back in the Aggie back
field and will start the game against
Nebraska. Douglass has been playing
at fullback but has given way to
Dayhoff, a two year man and a hard
hitting back. The Aggie captain will
appear in the halfbck role against
Nebraska.
- Kan.ai to Use Aerial Attack
The passing attack will be used
extensively against the Beargmen in
Saturday's argument on the Wildcat
field. Enns and Hammond are1 the
two aerial threats and have an abun
dance of passing plays to use. As
the Mizzou Tigers so the Kansas Ag
gies against Nebraska will probably
use the air for its offensive.
"Chief" Saunders, sophomore half
back has been showing up in practice
sessions and may get into the fray
Saturday against the 'scarlet clad
team. Saunders has shown his ability
to hit the line and is a difficult man
to stop on plunges. Bachman had de
cided early in the week to start the
Indian at left half, thus giving the
Aggies three backs for line driving.
The last report from Manhattan was
that Saunders would probably get
into the game but would not start.
A special train of Nebraska root
ers, the band and the freshman squad
will leave Lincoln Saturday morning
at 7:00 o'clock for Manhattan. It is
expected that there will be a large
delegation of Husker rooters there
for the game.

J. ALFRED SPENDER
PRESENTS ADDRESS
Engliah Journali.t Is Speaker
At National Convention
Of Sigma Delta Chi
Lawrence, Kan., Nov. 17 "Stand
up for the local paper," was the ad
vice given by J. Alfred Spender,
English journalist touring the United
States, in his address at one of the
closing sessions of the national con
vention of Sigma Delta Chi at the
University of Kansas.
Mr. Spender, who is touring the
United States under the auspices of
the Walter Page Hines fund, talked
of the difference in practice in the
United States and England, and ex
pressed fear that the commercial as
pect of journalism might be detrimental.
"There Is more enconragement in
your country than in Europe," said
Mr. Spender, "for your immense
country cannot well be swamped by
metropolitan journalism.
New.Danera Have Responsibility
As touching on international rela
tions, Mr. Spender declared the news
papers have a serious responsibility
for the peace of the world.
He decried the definition of a
newsrjaoer as a daiW publication is-
'Mied for nrofit. asserting that for
mation of opinion is one of the three
great functions of a newspaper
(news and advertising being the oth
ers) and that opinion cannot be
machine-made, but must be the free
expression of the guiding mind of
the paper.
. Next Convention at Northwestern
The convention voted to meet next
year with Northwestern university,
and elected officers as follows: Pres
ident, James Stuart, managing edi
tor of the Indianapolis Star; first
vice-president, Frank Rock, of the
American Boy, Detroit; second vice
president, Bristow Adams, director
of the school of journalism, Cornell
university; secretary, Robert B.
Tarr, Pontiac, Michigan, Press;
treasurer, Maurice Ryan, Devils
Lake, N. D. World.
The Wells Memorial Key for ser
vice to the fraternity was awarded
Lawrence W. Murphy, acting head
of the school of journalism of the
University of Illinois.
The convention closed tonight with
a banquet, which was addressed by
Henry J. Allen of Wichita, former
governor of Kansas.
An 82-year old man has married a
72-year old woman whom he kissed
more than fifty years ago. There's
a conscience for you.
