If tho public yawns and assumes a bored attitude it is doubtful whether any solution will be pursued far. ther. The violent swaying of the topmost branches does not move the tree trunk. In general this has also been the attitude of past editors. Far be it, then, for the present one to attempt in a single semester to radically change that which has bein steadily built up during the pau twenty-even years.

The University offers, throughout the school year, opportunities for the student to broaden the educations they are endeavoring to take from classes and books. Well-known men are brought here to speak on various subjects, their viewpoints, their experiences. Some students, however, are prone to think that they can, by doing the required studying and reading, gain all that is to be derived from college' work. They do not seem to realize that many of the talks given at convocations are worth a day's or even a week's work in the classroom or poring over the books. They do' not find out what some of the leading 1 Notices Tuesday, January 31 Perahlnf Rifle Meeting At 7:15 P. M. Tuesday. No uniforms.

THE SMALL POX THREAT Students arc again urged to be vaccinated for small pox. One student now being ill and others were probably exposed during registration week suggests the seriousness of the situation. In order to check any possible further spread of the disease, all students who are not thoroughly pro tected should be vaccinated as soon as possible. Stu dents may be vaccinated without charge by reporting at the Student Health Office in Tharniacy Hall. Drastic measures may have' to be taken if students fail to comply with the request. A GLANCE IN THE MIRROR Yesterday mar' -I the beginning of another ecm srr.r. For a few it ws a venture into a world totally different from that which they had been accustomed; even attempt to for some it meant the last series of subjects before authrities of the country think about certain things taking the initial step into the business world. But for Thursday morning will be an opportunity for stu- the majority it meant merely another period of school dents to listen to a well-known man deliver nn address work in which some new courses will be delved into, that promises to be interesting and worth while. tv,D-. mntirmerT and for a few some will be re- . peated. To those who are taking their final work, nothing can be said. The fact that they have remained here for four years would indicate that they have received some thing in return for their efforts. Their opinions regard ing a university education have become firmly fixed. But to the others such an education is still somewhat of an abstract thing. Some students have entered the University with the serious intention of securing an education which will broaden them for life's problems. Some are taking a technical course, expecting that at the completion of their work they will be able to secure a well-paying position. Some are here to improve their social stand- ing; some to find a husband; others because their par ents sent them; and others for a real good time. But by this time certain of these aspirations have been replaced by more worthy ones. Freshmen with visions of moonlight rides have been forced to remain in their rooms and study. Many of the wasterlings and those out for a good time have been eliminated by scholarship rulings. Some of the technical students have dropped out to take advantage of positions in the business world. A large number have become units in the big mill which grinds out yearly hundreds of young people who dress and think according to a standardized fashion. And a few have found that within the univer sity walls lies culture and a broadening point of view regarding life. Such is a typical second semester. In another year another class will pass through the same routine. An other small group will discover the true meaning of a university life. And so the University achieves its purpose. Those who are weaklings are eliminated; those who at least live within its walls are benefited; and the few go out into' the world with a deeper and broader vision. Daily Nebraskan readers sr cordially Invited to contri bute articles to this column. Tiiis paper, however, assumes no responsibility for the sentiment expressed herein, and re serves the right to exclude any libeloua or undesirable matter. A limit of six hundred words has been placed on all contributions. A DASH OF COLD WATER A new editorial staff of the Daily Nebraskan set tled down yesterday to the task of finding and inter preting campus news. With the exception of a few new workers, however, one would have failed to note any difference in the daily routine of grinding out copy. One would, in fact, be rather surprised and dubious should he have seen an entirely new method being ab ruptly adopted by the new staff. But whenever a new editor begins his initial at tempts at interpreting news and campus opinion, there. the three cents jg beinff ,evied w ow.wo sacvv a mule ui icaa ittuiiai ueparbure in editorial policy, mechanical structure, or what-not. The fact that, during the twenty-seven years that the Daily Nebraskan has been published, certain editorial policies have become as firmly fixed within the organi zation as some features of the routine work does not occur to these expectant individuals. To attempt to throw these aside during the one semester that the editor has charge would be as dubious an undertaking as an abrupt reorganization of the routine tasks. This does not mean that the editor subjects himself rigidly to a set of rules determined by the student pub lication board or by past issues of the paper. Such an action would reduce the editorial page to the mere squawk of a mechanical plaything. New problems which arise during the semester will be met squarely. If public To the Editor: With the beginning of the new year, Lincoln, self styled and incorrectly, 'the city with a new skyline every evening' has inaugurated a new plan of collecting three cents on every out-of-the-city check that is writ ten, whether it be simply for change or in payment for merchandise. The new plan is directed point blank at the stu dents coming to the university and keeping their money in the out-state banks. Lincoln seems to have failed to appreciate the presence of students in the city and the cold cash which they bring in and spend with the firms in the city. Lincoln fails to appreciate the fact that fully half of her business houses are living off the fat of the university, and that to the students coming to Nebraska she owes a great deal of her success. Things no longer cost twenty-five cents at the stores,, when the student pays bv check, hut t.hi nrino has raised to twenty-eight cents. Merchants claim that upon them bv the rmnlr through which they do business for the handling of checks. The student catches it coming and going. If he chooses to carry his bank account in a Lincoln bank, which seems to be the very thing which the new plan is endeavoring to provoke, and provoke it is, then he is charged a small fee by the bank for handling that ac count. It is somewhere in the neighborhood of fifty cents a month if the account is under $50.00, and be fore a month is over most students get below that mark. No doubt the Lincoln banks will brand this out burst of student opinion as much ado about nothing, but it does seem that Lincoln should tuck her head and .namea lor such action against a student that literally makes the city. body D. H. A. W. S. Board Selects Skits (Continued from Pag 1) one, according to Laura Margaret Raines, chairman of the Affair. There were so many good skits sub mitted, she added, that it was neces sary to select them carefully in ord er to insure a show of wide variety. Two Skit Will Get Prixet Two skits will be picked from the six presented that night. The first will receive a prize of fifteen dol lars, the second a prize of ten dollars. Tickets for the Follies will be sold at the door. This feature is a de parture from the usual procedure of an advance ticket sale. The performance will be gin at 7:30 o'clock, and will close at 9 o'clock. It is given for women only. The Co-Ed Follies is a traditional event, sponsored by the Associated Womens' Student Board. The money from this event will eventually be used to finance a Cooperative house on the University of Nebraska cam pus. them to Europe in the summer. The appointment is made for an indefin ite number of years. The company president is Albert Bailey, whose headquarters are in Boston, and who supervises district offices through out the country.

Practically absolute control would be in the hands of the council, the city manager being elected and governed by the members. The mayor would be retained but his po sition would be merely ceremonial, his duties consisting mostly of ac cepting submitted petitions and act ing as city host to delegations and conventions. Another item discussed in the com mitter's search for a revised city g ment was the proposition of raising the city levy, as was discussed last year. Masses of figures have been secured from the City Clerk's office but no announcement as to the decision has been made. Intramural Carnival Is To Be Friday (Continued from Pag 1) R. O. T. C.

Gregg Adds To Art Collection (Continued from Pag 1) noted for his work in connection with the national park movement and for his private art collection. A year ago he completed a private mu seum on his eastern estate. The four new additions to the col lection are "Memorial Gate, Univer sity of Pennsylvania," by G. A Bradshaw, "Friend or Foe," by Dean wooerta, "Weeding," by Carmen L. Browne, and "Amiens," by John awarded the National Arts Club prize in 1927, and is a notable piece of work by a notable artist. It por trays a street scene in the French town of Amiens. "Friend or Foe," is a dog picture, and "Weeding," is a captivating piece done in the "new" manner, tending to impressionistic technique rather than detail. Another gift to the School of Fine Arts is announced this week by Prof. Paul II. Grummann, director a col lection of more than a hundred photographs of the masterpieces of European art. The donor is anony mous. "The collection," says Pro fessor Grummann, "is excellent, and will be unusually valuable for use in the department of art history, criti cism, and interpretation." Track Squad Holds Tryouts (Continued from Page 1) his watch during the excitement of the race. Davenport and Campbell, letter men, and E. Wyatt, a sopho more, finished in close order behind the Husker leader. Fast competition was displayed in the hurdle races. Trumble, A. A. U. junior high-hurdle champion, stepped the 50-yard high barriers in 6.7 sec onds. Krause and Fleming, varsity men, followed close on the winner's heels as did Will's Lanison, a fresh man protege. Ed Weir, former Ne braska hurdle star, competed in this event and finished among the lead ers. Trumble and Krause ran a head heat in the low hurdles in 6.2 sec ends. C. O. Thompson, a sophomore ran the event in fast time. Louis Ktherton, state high school champion with Lincoln high in 1926 won the mile run in 4 minutes 41.3 seconds, .lanulewicz, a senior, ran second in the cent. Paul Mousel, made his first rppearance by captur ing the half-mile from Chadderdon, varsity runner, in the comparatively slow time of 2 minutes 6.6 seconds.
